Ch 122: Rudimentary Dao Rhyme
“Senior, you flatter me.” The youth quickly said, “I am the youngest disciple of my Master, and I am still in the exploration stage. My senior brothers and sisters are far stronger than I am. The position of Medicine King Valley Valley Master will never fall to me.”
Li Hanzhou smiled without speaking.
An Innate Medicine Body. Such a person has a very high success rate in refining pills.
Because they have a powerful affinity for Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures.
It is an extremely rare constitution.
And the fact that this disciple was able to deliver the Meridian Expansion Pill shows that this disciple is highly valued by Sun Yaoxian.
“Senior, this is a Meridian Expansion Pill refined by my Master.” The youth took a Pill Box from his Storage Bag and handed it to Li Hanzhou.
“Thank the Divine Doctor for me.” Li Hanzhou looked at the Pill Box, feeling somewhat excited. It was worth his efforts to obtain the Spring of Immortality; now Shi Ming’s Innate Stone Vein problem would be solved.
After instructing Liu Dongyue to take the youth away for proper hospitality, Li Hanzhou went to find Shi Ming.
Although the number of disciples in Longevity Temple had increased, Shi Ming only held the position of an Outer Elder, mainly managing the Servant Disciples.
In Longevity Temple, disciples are divided into Servant Disciples, Outer Disciples, and Inner Disciples.
However, there are currently no Inner Disciples, mostly Outer Disciples, while those with average aptitude are Servant Disciples, and they also need to undergo assessments.
Shi Ming currently lives in a separate Small Courtyard.
When Li Hanzhou arrived at Shi Ming’s Small Courtyard, he found Shi Ming practicing Tai Chi Fist in the courtyard.
Li Hanzhou had intended to call out to Shi Ming, but suddenly, Li Hanzhou was surprised.
Shi Ming’s Tai Chi Fist posture was extremely standard, a vast improvement from his clumsy form when he first started cultivating Tai Chi Fist.
Every move possessed a unique charm.
Each movement seemed to subtly harmonize with nature.
“That is…”
Li Hanzhou activated his Qi Gazing Technique and was instantly disbelieving.
Around Shi Ming, a faint Flowing Light flickered, circulating around him. With Shi Ming’s Tai Chi Fist, the Golden Light became even more intense.
“Daoist Charm Prototype?”
Li Hanzhou was utterly shocked.
Shi Ming’s cultivation level was still at the Fourth Rank Realm, yet a Fourth Rank Realm cultivator had actually cultivated a Daoist Charm Prototype?
How is this possible?
If this were told to others, no one would believe it; they would think he was mad.
Countless Heavenly Gang Realm strong persons spend their entire lives unable to cultivate a Daoist Charm Prototype, unable to enter the Esteemed Immortal Realm, yet Shi Ming, a mere Fourth Rank Martial Artist, had actually cultivated a Daoist Charm Prototype?
“Whew!”
As Shi Ming finished his movements, the Daoist Charm Prototype around him slowly dissipated, and his Aura returned to normal, as if the person just now was not him.
“Martial Uncle?”
Shi Ming saw Li Hanzhou and quickly walked over: “Martial Uncle, when did you arrive?”
“Just now.” Li Hanzhou looked at Shi Ming’s innocent face and curiously asked, “Your Tai Chi Fist is quite good. Have you felt any changes recently?”
“Changes?”
Shi Ming was startled, then shook his head: “I haven’t felt any changes, but after practicing Tai Chi Fist, I feel my Aura is much smoother.”
“Let me see.”
Li Hanzhou placed his hand on Shi Ming’s shoulder, and his Spiritual Power flowed into Shi Ming’s Meridians, instantly feeling like a stone sinking into the sea.
The obstruction of the Stone Vein remained.
“Alright, this is the Meridian Expansion Pill sent from Medicine King Valley.” Li Hanzhou took out the Meridian Expansion Pill.
The Meridian Expansion Pill was surprisingly glass-like, shimmering with seven-colored light under the Sunlight.
Shi Ming did not hesitate and swallowed the Meridian Expansion Pill in one gulp.
Immediately, Shi Ming sat cross-legged and began trying to circulate his True Qi, attempting to circulate it according to the Northern Emperor Art’s pathways.
Li Hanzhou stood by to protect Shi Ming.
At the same time, he pondered the changes in Shi Ming. A Fourth Rank Realm cultivator cultivating a Daoist Charm Prototype – Li Hanzhou had never seen this in any book.
In this way, an hour passed.
Shi Ming slowly opened his eyes.
“Did it work?” Li Hanzhou quickly asked when he saw Shi Ming wake up.
“I don’t feel anything.” Shi Ming said somewhat embarrassedly, “The cultivation method is still incredibly slow.”
“How could this be?”
Li Hanzhou could hardly believe it. That was a Meridian Expansion Pill refined using the Spring of Immortality and numerous Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, a top-quality pill personally refined by the Nine-fingered Divine Doctor of Medicine King Valley, and it was actually useless?
Li Hanzhou’s Spiritual Power entered Shi Ming’s body again.
That feeling of a stone sinking into mud came again.
This made Li Hanzhou speechless.
After such a precious pill entered Shi Ming’s body, it consumed all its medicinal energy without breaking through Shi Ming’s Innate Stone Vein.
What a terrifying Innate Stone Vein.
Li Hanzhou had also tried it just now. With Shi Ming’s Meridians, while others could circulate their cultivation methods twelve Great Zhou Cycles, Shi Ming could already be considered quite good if he could even manage one small Zhou Cycle.
Li Hanzhou could hardly imagine how much more effort Shi Ming had put in to reach his current Fourth Rank Realm cultivation level compared to ordinary people.
“Let me think of a way.” Li Hanzhou patted Shi Ming’s shoulder, “Don’t be discouraged.”
“It’s alright, Martial Uncle, I’m used to it.” Shi Ming smiled innocently.
“Is Grand Patriarch around?” A voice came from outside.
Li Hanzhou went to the door and saw a Longevity Temple disciple.
“Greetings, Grand Patriarch. The Headmaster said that if you see Grand Patriarch, please ask Grand Patriarch to come over.” The disciple said respectfully.
“Alright, I understand.”
Seeing that Shi Ming didn’t seem to have any problems, Li Hanzhou felt relieved. Although Shi Ming’s cultivation progress was slow, his temperament had been well-tempered.
“Senior Brother.”
Arriving at Li Changshou’s place, as soon as Li Hanzhou entered, he saw Li Changshou frowning at something.
“You’re really relaxed!” Li Changshou said helplessly, “You left this huge Sect to me; you’re completely ignoring it.”
“I’m busy cultivating.” Li Hanzhou smiled and sat down, pouring himself a cup of tea.
“Look at this.” Li Changshou tossed something over.
“What is it?” Li Hanzhou picked it up in surprise and looked. The contents made Li Hanzhou dumbfounded: “Why are you showing me the account books? Didn’t I say that you handle the money matters? You can use it however you like, you don’t need to tell me.”
“I’m letting you know that your twenty million taels of silver won’t last long!” Li Changshou said angrily.
“What?”
Li Hanzhou was shocked.
“How could this be?”
Li Changshou sighed, “Our Sect has just recruited disciples, and many aspects of welfare need to catch up. Unlike established Sects where disciples can be self-sufficient, we’re essentially spending money. Although you still have a lot of your twenty million taels left, we’re only spending and not earning. This isn’t sustainable, so I called you over.”
