Following a Hundred Years of Cultivation, I'm dying Before I Got Cheats

Ignite the Soul Lamp, Confirm the Cave Abode

Without any hesitation, he immediately bowed deeply and expressed his gratitude:

“Thank you for granting me the techniques. Shifu, you are truly worthy of being a Dao Integration Holy Lord. Your understanding and insight into the path of cultivation are forever beyond my reach.

Even if I aspire to pursue it, I fear it might be difficult to even match a fraction of your achievements.

Moreover, your earnest efforts this time are indeed deeply engraved in my heart. The only way I could possibly express a fraction of my gratitude towards you, Shifu, is to always keep you in my thoughts and be grateful at every moment.”

Jiang Chengxuan’s words left Zhao Tianfan somewhat dumbfounded.

He just stared blankly at Jiang Chengxuan, with a single thought repeating in his mind.

This is bad!

Junior brother, by doing this, aren’t you making it harder for me and senior sister to flatter Shifu?

No, I mean, to express our sincerity.

Shifu will definitely have higher expectations of me and senior sister from now on.

This is really…

While he was contemplating this, Qin Shenwu’s smile gradually widened until he couldn’t help but laugh out loud.

“Chengxuan, listen to me. My dedication to you and the others is simply part of my responsibilities as your Shifu. You should never think that I’m going above and beyond for you. It’s all part of my job.

Also, remember that every Dao Integration Holy Lord has their unique strengths. You don’t need to praise me so much.

I’ve mentioned before not to imitate your senior brother Zhao.

See, you’ve still been influenced by him.

“Yes, yes, yes!”

Jiang Chengxuan quickly admitted with humility.

“As your disciple, I truly spoke from my heart, feeling a need to express myself or else I might become spiritually clouded. If there was anything inappropriate I hope Shifu can forgive me.”

“Is that so?

In that case, you should indeed speak it out loud.

The most important thing for us cultivators is to express our heart.

Since I am your Shifu, I naturally cannot let you be affected in this aspect. However, you should still try to control your inner thoughts to a certain extent in the future. Sometimes, restraining oneself can also be a form of cultivation, as long as you manage the balance well.”

“Thank you for your guidance, Shifu.

Hearing a single word from you is like gaining the wisdom of thousands of scriptures. It’s as if I’ve received an enlightening elixir, instantly clearing away my confusion.”

Zhao Tianfan stood there, staring blankly as Jiang Chengxuan and Qin Shenwu exchanged words back and forth.

They weren’t just talking; oh no, they were deeply engaged in what could only be described as an enthusiastic exchange, flowing endlessly and continuously like a river.

It was a meeting of minds, a perfect match of wits.

“Cough cough…”

Zhao Tianfan couldn’t hold it in and coughed twice, drawing an annoyed look from Qin Shenwu.

What are you doing, kid?

Are you trying to interrupt my conversation with your junior brother? Though he didn’t say it out loud, his eyes conveyed his thoughts clearly. Zhao Tianfan’s face immediately showed an awkward smile.

“Uh, Shifu, Junior brother hasn’t yet gone to the Ancestral Hall to light his soul lamp.

Do you think…”

“Oh, is that so?”

Qin Shenwu seemed to only then remember.

He looked at Jiang Chengxuan, pondering for a moment before saying, “Indeed, now that you have joined us, there are many things that need to be taken care of first.”

Turning to Zhao Tianfan, he instructed,

“Tianfan, you take Chengxuan to the Ancestral Hall to light the soul lamp.

After you’ ve done that, bring him back here.

In the next hundred years, let him cultivate here.”

Hearing Qin Shenwu’s words, Zhao Tianfan internally sighed with relief, glad that this conversation was finally going to end.

Though he thought this, he showed none of it outwardly and nodded seriously, “Rest assured, Shifu, I’ll make sure everything is taken care of for my junior brother.”

Then, turning to Jiang Chengxuan, he said,

“Junior brother, unless you have other matters, let’s head to the Ancestral Hall now.”

“Thank you, senior brother.”

Jiang Chengxuan smiled and nodded.

With that, they temporarily bid farewell to Qin Shenwu and left together from the peak of Shenwu.

Watching their departing figures, Qin Shenwu chuckled to himself.

“These two kids…”

Shaking his head, he then sat down and fell into a deep thought.

After some time,

Jiang Chengxuan and Zhao Tianfan emerged from the Ancestral Hall, with the elder m charge personally seeing them off.

Zhao Tianfan quickly tried to politely decline further escort.

“Senior Brother Huang, this will be enough. I’ll visit you another day when I have time.”

After bidding farewell to Senior Brother Huang, Zhao Tianfan immediately turned to Jiang Chengxuan with a smile,

“Let’s go, junior brother. I’ll take you to another place.”

By the way, do you have any special requests regarding your cave abode?”

Jiang Chengxuan had already known that as a direct disciple of a Dao

Integration Holy Lord like Qin Shenwu, he was entitled to an independent Level

7 cave abode within the Haoran Sect.

Such a cave abode, even for a Void Returning Divine Lord to cultivate in, would be more than sufficient.

Naturally, Jiang Chengxuan wouldn’t be shy about this and immediately responded upon hearing the question:

“Senior Brother Zhao, I wonder if it would be possible to grant me the Cloud

Mist Peak, where I previously resided?”

“Hmm? You want to choose Cloud Mist Peak?”

Zhao Tianfan was slightly surprised.

He knew very well that Cloud Mist Peak was also of Level 7.

However, because no one had lived there for years, the buildings on the peak were sparse and the arrangements quite ordinary.

Nonetheless, it was an undeniable fact that Cloud Mist Peak was not a poor choice.

Among the many Level 7 cave abodes in the Haoran Sect, it was considered above average.

Zhao Tianfan nodded immediately.

“If you, junior brother, wish to choose Cloud Mist Peak, that is naturally possible.

However, the arrays on that peak are a bit lacking in grade. I will personally set

up some for you later, and there should be no problem then.”

“Thank you, Senior Brother Zhao.”

During their recent interactions, Jiang Chengxuan had learned that his senior brother Zhao was not only a Void Returning Holy Lord but also a Level 7 array master.   y

Moreover, he had made significant progress within this level.

Upgrading the defensive arrays of Jiang Chengxuan’s cave abode would certainly not pose any difficulty for him.

After Zhao Tianfan had helped Jiang Chengxuan with all the arrangements, the two finally returned to Shenwu Peak.

As soon as they returned to Shenwu Peak, Jiang Chengxuan and Zhao Tianfan saw their Shifu, Qin Shenwu, who was sitting there in a daze, suddenly raise his hand and throw a storage ring at Jiang Chengxuan.

Chengxuan, this is a welcoming gift from me.

Inside, you will find a protective treasure specially prepared for you, along with pills and other resources to aid your cultivation.

Most importantly, it includes an identity token that allows you to enter the Mount of Five Elements Divine Reincarnation every ten years for cultivation.

Only with that token can you enter the mountain to cultivate.”
