Primordial Cultivator

Chapter 41: Leaving the Secret Herb Garden (3)

For the next few hours, Yang Wei and Elder Jing continued to work hard to piece the symbol together.

They have encountered many failures but Yang Wei continued to have a calm mind as he began to start learning something from the symbol.

When Yang Wei first saw the symbols, he was completely clueless and had zero ideas on what it was.

Afterward, Yang Wei used his spiritual sense to detect the purity of the true qi emitting from the symbol and have gotten some comprehension.

Thus, despite failing many times, Yang Wei was benefiting without suffering much loss.

“This is the last possible combination that we can try. If this fails then we are really out of luck.” Elder Jing said solemnly as she placed the final symbol together.

Suddenly, a beam of light shone out from the symbol and a fluctuation of true qi started to gather around the center.

The calm wind from before also began to act violently. Yang Wei stood his ground to stand still to not get blown off.

Slowly, the wind starts to calm down but the symbol has disappeared, leaving only a bright circle in the ground.

“That should be the teleportation array,” Elder Jing concluded as she looked at Yang Wei.

Yang Wei nodded and held Elder Jing in the hand as they both stepped on the circle.

A beeping sound could be heard and their body slowly vanished from the circle. They had spent a long time in this secret herb garden and now they are finally teleported out.

Once their presence is no longer here, Old Ling comes out slowly as he watches the scene quietly.

‘It has been a fun time to interact with them. However, all good things will come to an end someday, and hopefully, they will stay safe.’

Old Ling said inwardly when he has made the destination of the teleportation array to be away from the others.

It wasn’t that he didn’t want them to reunite together. It was because the others who came with them had already started hunting each other for treasures they found.

Old Ling did not want Elder Jing and Yang Wei to fight them early as they needed to recover themselves.

“That’s all I can do to help you or else I will be forced to dissipate from the laws set by my master.” Old Ling smiled bitterly as he slowly walked into the hut.

Meanwhile, Yang Wei was currently holding Elder Jing’s hand very tightly from the teleporting journey.

“Yang Wei, stop holding my hand so tightly.” Elder Jing said as she felt he was too close to her.

Yang Wei remained oblivious and continued to move closer to Elder Jing. A few seconds later, Yang Wei was hugging Elder Jing’s back and Elder Jing was in disbelief.

‘Is this brat taking advantage of me in this situation?’ Elder Jing questioned inwardly before she started to look at him.

To her surprise, Yang Wei was unconscious and was holding her in instinct.

“Yang Wei”

Elder Jing called out to try to wake him up but there was zero response.

Yang Wei was unable to respond to Elder Jing’s words because his conscience was dragged out by an unknown means.

“Why am I back in this dark, gloomy environment?” Yang Wei asked aloud when he couldn’t see Elder Jing anymore.

He recalled holding her hand and when they were being teleported out, Yang Wei felt like someone had poked the back of his head and he passed out.

Yang Wei believed it was the shadow’s doing again and his belief was proven very quickly.

“Seems like you have received my disciple’s approval if you managed to have that thing.” The shadow appeared behind as he said slowly.

‘Disciple?’ Yang Wei ponders for a while before becoming shocked.

“Y-You are Senior Nie Jin?” Yang Wei swallowed his saliva nervously when he asked this question.

After all, the information he had gotten about Nie Jin was the fact that he has ascended from this world already.

So how was it possible for him to re-appear here?

“Haha, you are still too young to know a lot of things in this world that have many wonderful and miraculous techniques. Indeed, I’m Nie Jin but at the same time not.” Nie Jin said and confused Yang Wei further.

“It’s either yes or no. Why are you making everything so complicated?” Yang Wei can never understand these eccentric cultivators who have reached the peak.

They always love to have a mysterious aura and emit a profound feeling to show their seniority.

However, Yang Wei only feels annoyed whenever they act like that. Giving off pieces of information to you but not giving you the crucial part.

“It is more fun and better this way to let the youth figure things out themselves. If I give out every answer to you then what’s the point of improving your strength at all?” Nie Jin laughs heartily when he knows the thinking of Yang Wei.

Yang Wei became cautious when he realized his thought was being exposed.

‘My facial expression remained the same and I controlled my emotion well. But Senior Nie Jin can still read my thoughts. Is it another technique?’

Nie Jin raised his eyebrow slightly with a gawking expression. ‘This youth is sharp, to be able to stay calm and deducted this much. My disciple really didn’t disappoint me this time.’

Nie Jin praised inwardly to find a level-headed youth who knows their place and not arrogant for having a little bit of strength.

When he was testing the other people who entered with Yang Wei and Elder Jing, he was left with disappointment and disgust.

He has ordered Old Ling to place some treasure on the ground for them to discover it to see their reaction.

The result was not even a surprise for him as he witnessed these people fight to the death to obtain the treasure. Such greed and disgusting humans have never changed at all.

“We will meet again very soon Yang Wei. I just wanted to tell you one thing by bringing you here. Be careful of those who act generously.” Nie Jin said softly before vanishing, leaving a dazed Yang Wei.
