Chapitre 127: Chapter 127: Senior Liao's Little Lecture Begins
After the third loud clap of thunder, the long-awaited rain finally began to fall. Large raindrops suddenly pelted down on the small village, hitting the lush green trees, causing leaves to scatter all over the ground. The raindrops also splattered onto the rural paths, splashing mud onto the wildflowers and grasses along the roadside. The roofs of the houses were drenched, washing away the slight early summer heat.
The villagers of Xiushui Village, cozying up in their homes, fell into a peaceful sleep under the sound of the pouring rain. Many of them dreamed of the bountiful harvest that would come soon, their dreams filled with golden hues.
The next morning, as the first wisp of cooking smoke rose from the village, the rain had not stopped. It continued to fall with great vigor.
The young men of the village were thrilled, not only because the rain would help the crops, but also because the downpour meant they didn't have to go out to the fields. They could enjoy a rare day of rest at home, spending time with their wives and children.
However, the older villagers, seeing the sky still thick with clouds and no sign of sunlight, began to worry. Although the rain had come at a good time, if it continued without stopping, the blessing could turn into a disaster. They feared the rain might become too much, leading to flooding, which would be a major problem.
But there was nothing they could do except pray that the heavens would be merciful and not let the rain go too far.
Despite the rain, it didn't deter the members of Lingxian Sect from their daily cultivation. Everyone, except the two young girls Liu Shengsheng and Lin Ying, who had been given oil-paper umbrellas by their families, made their way up the mountain, braving the downpour without any cover.
Surprisingly, today, Senior Liao also came to the cultivation room. When everyone had gathered, he nodded to them and said,
"I'll be joining you here today. If any of you have questions about your cultivation, feel free to ask me."
Hearing this, everyone was delighted. The sect members all knew that his true form was that of a Nascent Soul cultivator. Although they weren't entirely sure how powerful that was, Lin Xiao had once explained to them that after the Qi Refining stage came the Foundation Establishment stage, then the Core Formation stage, and only after that was the Nascent Soul stage. Moreover, each stage was divided into early, middle, and late phases, which made them believe that this senior was indeed very powerful.
Lin Xiao had even secretly told them that Senior Liao was over 500 years old.
Five hundred years old!
That was equivalent to the ages of six or seven Hu clan elders combined!
Only Mo Yuanjiao and Mo Que truly understood what a Nascent Soul cultivator represented. It was the level of a sect master in one of the three major sects! And they had heard that the old sect master of Shangyang Sect, who was at the Nascent Soul stage, had been in seclusion for ten years, with the current sect master being only at the late Core Formation stage.
Yet such a powerful figure was merely an elder in Lingxian Sect...
Seeing the excited expression on Mo Yuanjiao's face, Lin Xiao knew he must have been imagining all sorts of things again. It seemed he would need to find an opportunity to explain everything clearly to him, or else the misunderstandings would only deepen. Whether Mo Yuanjiao chose to stay or leave after that would be up to fate, but letting him continue to misunderstand wasn't a good idea.
Thus, the cultivation room was filled with a strong atmosphere of learning that day. Everyone eagerly approached Senior Liao with various questions, and he patiently answered each one.
The sect members quickly realized that although Senior Liao didn't interact much with them and his appearance could be intimidating, he was truly kind and helpful.
Senior Liao himself had spent the past days diligently studying the "Taoyuan Mantra" for this purpose. Since he had decided to join Lingxian Sect, he wanted to contribute in some way. However, giving out treasures wasn't appropriate—especially since it seemed Lin Xiao didn't really need them. Besides, his current spirit form didn't have many valuable items.
Moreover, directly giving out resources wouldn't be the right approach for the sect's growth. A sect needed to develop gradually. If he provided everything too easily, he feared the sect might lose its way, like a poor person suddenly gaining wealth and forgetting their roots.
After much thought, he decided that helping others by answering their cultivation questions might be the most suitable role for him. This led him to secretly study the "Taoyuan Mantra," the most widely practiced cultivation technique in the sect.
As for the Heaven-grade Low-tier technique "Benyuan Heart Sutra," it wasn't that Senior Liao didn't want to study it—he just hadn't had the time. He believed that to answer questions effectively, he needed to thoroughly understand the technique, at least up to the Core Formation stage. Only then would he be qualified to guide others.
Thus, after spending countless hours reviewing and verifying the "Taoyuan Mantra," Senior Liao finally felt confident enough to join the cultivation room today.
Through his study, he also gained some insight into the sect's cultivation techniques, which didn't rely on spiritual roots. Although he hadn't yet delved deeply into the "Benyuan Heart Sutra," the foundational principles were similar, and with his centuries of experience, he was able to answer the Qi Refining disciples' questions.
Even Lin Xiao, listening from the side, benefited greatly.
Mo Yuanjiao, in particular, paid close attention, sitting beside Senior Liao with an intense focus, determined not to miss a single word.
For a while, the cultivation room felt like a small knowledge seminar.
By midday, although the group hadn't spent as much time on actual cultivation as usual, many of their long-standing questions were answered, and they gained clarity on many previously confusing concepts.
When afternoon came, and the rain continued to pour with increasing intensity, everyone chose to stay in the cultivation room, continuing their practice rather than engaging in free activities as they usually did.
With Senior Liao's guidance, they all felt their cultivation speed had increased significantly.
By evening, Liu Yunang and Mo Yuanjiao had both broken through to the next level, reaching Qi Refining Stage 5 and Qi Refining Stage 2, respectively!
Seeing this, everyone became even more motivated, immersing themselves in their cultivation with renewed vigor.
Little did they know, in Xiushui Village, families in low-lying areas were already donning rain gear, sweeping water out of their courtyards. Some were even digging small drainage ditches to prevent their yards from flooding.
