Chapter 397: Venerable Whites interjections

Translator: GodBrandy Editor: Kurisu

"When I established the ’Nine Provinces Number One Group’ together with Daluo Sect’s Rain Moon and Senior Seventh Cultivator of True Virtue, the idea was to support and motivate the junior cultivators in the group. For example, some of us would issue small and easy tasks inside the group like collecting materials and give them to the juniors. After the completion of the task, we seniors would give them a gift. That was the idea behind the creation of the group," True Monarch Yellow Mountain explained.

"Oh." Venerable White nodded and said, "Such being the case, I’ll personally give a gift to little friend Song Shuhang for receiving me after I came out of secluded meditation!"

Northern River’s Loose Cultivator quickly said, "This is inappropriate. If Senior White wants to give little friend Song Shuhang an additional gift, that’s fine. As for our gift, we agreed earlier that we would give little friend Shuhang one. It can be said that we’re giving him this gift in the capacity of seniors."

Speaking of which... at the time, he and several other seniors ’tricked’ the naive Song Shuhang into accepting the task to receive Senior White.

While they were ’tricking’ him, they promised him all sorts of benefits. If they didn’t give him a gift now, wouldn’t they be laughed at by the younger generation?

Venerable White nodded and said, "In that case, I’ll leave it to you."

Thereupon, the seniors of the Nine Provinces Number One Group started to discuss as to what they should gift to Song Shuhang.

Northern River’s Loose Cultivator asked, "Now then, what kind of item does little friend Shuhang need the most right now?"

"For a cultivator, it’s essential to have cultivation techniques! Little friend Song Shuhang just advanced to the Second Stage True Master Realm and is now in need of a technique to train his true qi so that he can keep advancing. From what I remember, he only has the body tempering Basic Buddhist Fist Technique he got from Medicine Master, right?" Thrice Reckless Mad Saber said.

True Monarch Yellow Mountain silently nodded. "In that case, let’s decide which cultivation technique would fit little friend Song Shuhang. Possibly a buddhist technique that can match with the Basic Buddhist Fist Technique!"

At this time, Venerable White suddenly interjected, "He doesn’t really need cultivation techniques. In the past few days, I chanced upon a very interesting sect. I met the remaining disciples of the Thirty-Three Divine Beasts’ Sect. They had a portion of the Thirty-Three Divine Beasts’ Technique which I managed to obtain, and I’m currently studying it. When the time comes, I’ll conveniently teach it to little friend Song Shuhang."

Northern River’s Loose Cultivator’s eyes suddenly lit up as he asked, "The Thirty-Three Divine Beasts’ Technique? Is it that legendary technique that can allow the user to condense ’pseudo-innate true qi’ inside their body? If it’s really that technique, it’s very fitting for little friend Song Shuhang. After all, he missed the best period to practice."

Venerable White faintly smiled and nodded.

"Such being the case, we don’t need to worry about cultivation techniques," True Monarch Yellow Mountain said with a nod. It was really a pity though; he felt that little friend Song Shuhang was really suited for buddhist techniques. "Now then, what suitable gift can we give to little friend Song Shuhang?"

True Monarch White Crane said, "Aside from cultivation techniques, cultivators are very reliant on movement techniques! Speed is essential for cultivators. Quickly escaping can sometimes save one’s life!"

White Crane’s words were reasonable. Sometimes, powerful attacks or defense were not as useful as simply running away.

Northern River’s Loose Cultivator approved and said, "Now that I think about it, it seems that little friend Song Shuhang indeed lacks a movement technique. Such being the case, should we gift him a movement technique?"

After hearing this much, Venerable White once more interjected, "He doesn’t need movement techniques, either. A while ago, I taught him a scholarly movement technique, the Virtuous Man’s Ten Thousand Mile Walk. This movement technique is rather interesting. As the saying goes: reading a thousand books is not as good as traveling for a thousand miles. The more it’s used, the better are its effects. It’s enough for him till he reaches the Third Stage Realm."

"..." True Monarch Yellow Mountain.

"..." Northern River’s Loose Cultivator.

"..." True Monarch White Crane.

All the other fellow daoists were speechless as well.

"Cough, cough. Since he doesn’t need cultivation or movement techniques, how about gifting him a sword technique or something of the sort? As far as I can see, he only has a ’Flaming Saber Technique’, and his attack power is quite lacking," Dharma King Creation advised. When he was fighting on the Grievance Settling Platform earlier, Song Shuhang used nothing but the Flaming Saber Technique. Everyone noticed this point.

Northern River’s Loose Cultivator nodded and said, "That’s also true. Although I felt that his Flaming Saber was a bit special, it’s not a bad idea to give him an additional offensive technique!"

After hearing this much, Venerable White interjected again, "Sword techniques and the likes are also useless. Some time ago, the corpse of the loose cultivator Li Tiansu crashed next to little friend Song Shuhang, forming some karma with him. This karma is also related to the Chu Family. After this karma is settled, he should be able to obtain a fine sword technique."

The nearby Chu Chu blinked her eyes. This karma was also related to the Chu Family? Although she didn’t know who this Li Tiansu was, it seemed that Song Shuhang had decided to help them because of him...

"..." Dharma King Creation.

"..." Northern River’s Loose Cultivator.

"..." True Monarch Yellow Mountain.

All the other fellow daoists were speechless as well.

"Then, how about giving him the opportunity to train inside a secret realm?" Cave Lord Snow Wolf said. "Little Song Shuhang just advanced to the Second Stage Realm. Therefore, he can conveniently train inside a secret realm and make use of the spiritual energy inside, both consolidating his cultivation realm and strengthening his physical body."

Cave Lord Snow Wolf favored this method a lot. When he was only an ordinary small snow wolf, he inadvertently entered an ownerless secret realm suited for practicing. From that point onwards, the gates of cultivation opened for him.

True Monarch Ancient Lake Temple nodded and said, "This reward isn’t bad. I recommend to give him the opportunity to train inside a spirit vein-type secret realm! With that, he’ll be baptized by the spirit veins inside the secret realm and build a solid foundation for his future path of cultivation."

Spirit vein-type secret realm referred to those secret realms suited for practice that contained huge spirit veins. After advancing to the Second Stage, the practitioner would be ’baptized’ after he came in contact with the spirit vein for the first time. This baptism would give them a lot of benefits.

True Monarch Ancient Lake Temple’s voice had yet to fade, when...

...Venerable White interjected again. "A spirit vein-type secret realm is also useless. A while ago, little friend Song Shuhang obtained sixteen precious herbs from the mysterious island, all of them the ’skeletal dragon’s withered vine’, and gave them to Su Clan’s Seven. Afterward, Seven promised that he would bring Song Shuhang into the first layer of the Spirit River Secret Realm to practice."

The Spirit River Secret Realm was the symbol of the Su Clan, and it was a first-class secret realm amongst spirit vein-type secret realms. The effects were tens of times better than ordinary spirit vein-type secret realms.

"..." Cave Lord Snow Wolf.

"..." True Monarch Ancient Lake Temple.

"..." True Monarch Yellow Mountain.

All the other fellow daoists were speechless as well.

At this time, the hearts of the fellow daoists of the Nine Provinces Number One Group were in turmoil!

At first, they thought that little friend Song Shuhang had cheated in order to advance to the Second Stage Realm in mere two months... but now, they discovered that it was merely the tip of the iceberg!

After advancing to the Second Stage Realm, he already had cultivation and movement techniques. In a short time, he would obtain a sword technique, and he just had to wait a bit more to get an opportunity to train inside a secret realm...

And speaking of Su Clan’s Seven, everyone remembered that he once promised that he would bring Song Shuhang to the Immortal Feast! That was another huge benefit!

But there was a problem!

What did Shuhang lack right now?

It seemed like he didn’t lack anything right now! What were these seniors supposed to gift him? Was it possible that they could only give him money (spirit stones) as a gift? That would be quite lame!

True Monarch Fallout proposed, "Then, let’s settle for the second-best choice. How about something like talismans or magical treasures? If used well, these items can almost give a second life to cultivators!"

After True Monarch Fallout made his proposition, everyone looked at Venerable White.

It was an instinctive reaction!

They refused to believe that he didn’t need talismans or magical treasures either!

After pondering for a moment, Venerable White said, "I’m not too sure about talismans... but it seems that little friend Song Shuhang has a Blood God Crystal in his hands and is planning to carry out a transaction with Fellow Daoist Seven Lives Talisman... and since we’re talking about Seven Lives Talisman, it’s pretty likely that he would use talismans to trade, right? Aside from that, little friend Song Shuhang also helped him with the matter of the natives on the island. He mentioned that he would give Shuhang a gift for that too.

As for magical treasures... Shuhang has a pendant that can allow him to increase his speed, an ancient bronze ring with some good effects, and a treasure saber. Right, not too long ago, he managed to lead a Branch Leader of the Limitless Demon Sect toward us. Later, we captured him and left him to Fellow Daoist Seven. Seven took several magical treasures from the body of that Branch Leader and gave them to Song Shuhang. From what I remember, there was a small flying sword, a flight-type magical treasure, and a few spirit stones of different ranks..."

True Monarch Yellow Mountain said, "I unexpectedly forgot about Fellow Daoist Seven Lives Talisman."

Thrice Reckless Mad Saber said, "I remember that he obtained that crystal when Fellow Daoist Seven destroyed the Moon Saber Sect. Tsk, tsk."

All the other fellow daoists were speechless.

In other words... little friend Song Shuhang didn’t need talismans, magical treasures, flying swords, and flying sabers, either?

In the end, was he even lacking something?!

For some reason, they didn’t know where to start to deal with this situation!

They felt that little friend Song Shuhang would turn from an air gun into a cannon after entering the Second Stage!

"If that’s the case, I can only think of medicinal pills. After all, they’re something everyone can use! Since he just entered the Second Stage, he would need a large number of medicinal pills to recover true qi and strengthen his cultivation base!" Cave Lord Snow Wolf said.

After he finished speaking, everyone turned their heads toward Venerable White.

Venerable White hadn’t already prepared the medicinal pills that Song Shuhang would need while in the Second Stage Realm, right?
