Chapter 905: Mysterious Female Pearl (1200 Bonus)
"Pah... those people are Disciples of the Orthodox Xuan Sect, aiming for the Primordial Spirit Loose Immortal realm, or at the very least, Great Success of the Golden Core... That is why they pay such special attention to their foundations. You, a wretched person from an Evil Sect, having only refined thin Sha, come to rebuke me, a Disciple who hasn't even reached the Innate realm and possesses no powerful heritage. Are you worthy of me? Are you?"
Aaron mused that the original Xin Chen had average aptitude, and his perseverance and comprehension were also average.
Moreover, the Daoism heritage of Jin Daoren himself was extremely crude. With these two factors combined, he would have to thank the heavens if he could reach the Condensing Evil Realm in this lifetime. As for the future path of Dao, the Great Dao of the Golden Core—were they worthy of such things?
Even if the foundation were damaged, reaching the Essence Refining Outer Gang would not be much of a problem, and that would be enough to live a carefree life; it was the goal many Loose Cultivators strove for!
Of course, he wore a look of shame on his face: "It is this Disciple who has failed Master... I have let down Master's high expectations!"
"Enough!"
Jin Daoren was merely finding an excuse to scold someone.
At this moment, he flicked his sleeve, and a streak of pitch-black Dharma Power struck Aaron's dantian, suppressing the 'Stomach Demon Gu'.
He knew that Jin Daoren was originally from the South Border, and by a stroke of luck, he had obtained a Dao book, after which he came to Zhongyuan, single-mindedly wanting to refine the most powerful types of Gu Insects mentioned in the book.
Kicking the weak and fawning over the strong was human nature, and under the tutelage of Jin Daoren, a practitioner of the Side Sects and Heterodox Paths, this was even more pronounced.
Just as the Junior Brothers all thought Xin Chen was about to lash out, he sighed: "Alright..."
'The Master is not like a Master, and the infighting among the Disciples is truly something else...'
One of these types is called—the Golden Silkworm Gu!
"This..."
At this moment, on the platform, several people were already waiting.
'The Mysterious Female Pearl?!'
He immediately looked at Aaron with a smug expression, his petty face undisguised.
That was the scene of the other party fawning over him beneath his body.
Fortunately, Baidu Mountain was not large, and Jin Daoren arrived at a platform after just a few leaps.
Seeing this, a strange glint flashed in Wei Feiniang's eyes: 'How did I not know before that this Xin Chen was so capable of bending and stretching?'
Although he had once been an Ancestor, a man who had walked through ten thousand flowers and treated brothels as his home, he had truly never played at something as stimulating as stealing the Master's wife...
At this time, Jin Daoren had already sat down leisurely and began to lecture his Disciples.
He deliberately said the words "Junior Brother" loudly, clearly intending to humiliate Xin Chen.
Aaron grumbled inwardly.
This quota was very heavy, clearly intended to make things difficult.
This Mysterious Female Pearl was the most suitable Magic Tool for subduing Gu Insects!
After issuing the task, Jin Daoren walked leisurely into his Cave Abode and sealed the door with a Dharma spell.
On the platform, several Disciples looked at one another... In the end, Lu Meizi stepped forward, looking at Aaron with a mocking smile: "Junior Brother Xin Chen..."
Listening to Lu Meizi's triumphant laughter behind him, Aaron, who was turning to leave, did not care.
'It's a pity this start is bad; I can't keep a low profile anymore... No, nothing can stop me from keeping a low profile!'
"Hahaha..."
"Yes!"
In his long life, he had seen many heroes, villains, and beauties... In the end, they were all just a handful of yellow soil, not worth worrying about!
Seeing Jin Daoren return, they immediately knelt on the ground to pay respects: "This Disciple greets Master!"
This platform was located on a steep cliff; one side protruded, while the others were smooth as mirrors, making it difficult for even martial arts experts to climb.
Only one woman, with a face like peach blossoms and wearing a bright red dress, looked at Aaron with a different gaze.
"Great Senior Brother, please give your orders."
'Lu Meizi is truly an idiot... Although my True Qi has dissipated, I have already opened the Ren and Du Meridians. Unlike them, who still need to warm their internal Qi one by one and strike at their acupuncture points, I do not need to strike; I can achieve it in one go.'
Previously, Xin Chen was a person who had entered the Innate realm, having cultivated a breath of Innate True Qi, so he was naturally the Great Senior Brother who suppressed his peers.
Once everyone stood still, he satisfied his desire to speak, then coughed: "I am going to refine the 'Mysterious Female Pearl' and will be in seclusion for a period of time. The daily contribution of Five Poisons must not be lacking... Lu Meizi, you are in charge of this matter. From now on, you must offer the sufficient quota every day, otherwise, you will be held accountable!"
Aaron showed a look of difficulty on his face, as if he were struggling.
But Aaron knew that Jin Daoren's lineage was very poor, and they didn't even have many Magic Tools! They were usually in Jin Daoren's hands, and he was reluctant to use them.
'To advance from Post-Heaven to Innate, one must open the Ren and Du Meridians!'
Aaron, however, could bend and stretch, putting on a smiling face.
He sighed, his expression firming up again, and returned to his Cave Abode along the mountain path.
And... this Jin Daoren was no good person; he had even dug out a disciple's heart to eat raw!
"Hmm, I just happen to need to summon your Junior Brothers and Sisters, let's go!"
Aaron felt a slight chill in his heart.
This Jin Daoren was only in the Condensing Evil Realm; although he could control Qi for Flight, he could only travel a hundred feet at a time. To travel long distances, he needed the help of Magic Tools or Dharma Treasures.
Lu Meizi was so excited that the freckles on his face trembled, and he said loudly: "This Disciple obeys!"
The Disciples under Jin Daoren were not ranked by age, but by strength!
And the other fellow Disciples were the same.
'Wei Feiniang, Jin Daoren's only female Disciple, or rather, half a concubine... She is naturally promiscuous and has had affairs with many of Jin Daoren's Disciples... Uh, Xin Chen also "stole" her...'
As soon as Aaron saw her, a layer of memories surfaced.
He then pointed to a short, fat Disciple: "Lu Meizi, now that Xin Chen has suffered a cultivation deviation and his Innate True Qi has dissipated, he can no longer be the Great Senior Brother. You will be the Great Senior Brother from now on."
A few people saw Aaron arriving with Jin Daoren, and jealousy and resentment even appeared on their faces and in their eyes.
Aaron rubbed his stomach, immediately stood up, and bowed to the ground: "Thank you, Master!"
Aaron's face flushed slightly.
Lu Meizi was very smug and called out: "Master has ordered me to oversee all matters. Junior Brother, you must bring five of the Five Poisons every day, how about that?"
He still understood the principle that when one is under the eaves, one must bow one's head.
When coming, Daoist Jin used Qi for Flight, taking less than half an incense stick's time, but returning required trekking over mountains and through waters, taking a full hour!
Sealing the Cave Abode, Aaron sat cross-legged, contemplating the Hundred Poisons True Scripture, a trace of a smile appearing on his face.
But what about now? Heh...
This Gu is modeled after the Ancient strange fiend—the Six-Winged Golden Silkworm; once refined, its fierce might is truly peerless, devouring ordinary Taoism practitioners as if it were nothing!
However, the Golden Silkworm Gu is born with a fierce and violent nature, most fond of devouring its master, so it is necessary to refine a corresponding Magic Tool to subdue it.
Daoist Jin gave a cold snort and said, "Get up!"
Lu Meizi had not expected to encounter such a matter upon becoming Great Senior Brother, and could not help but agree with a sorrowful face.
Thinking this, Aaron carefully checked his physical condition, then according to the records in the scripture, performed Meditation and focused his spirit, mobilizing the Internal Energy within his body, rising from the womb palace, passing the navel, and following the Great Dragon along the spine all the way up, finding it completely unobstructed, straight into the Heavenly Spirit Hundred Meetings!
Daoist Jin flicked his sleeve, and instantly a gust of sinister wind wrapped around Aaron, and the two flew out of the Cave Abode together.
But at this moment, he did not make a one-time effort to break through to the Innate Realm.
After all, having just suffered from Qi deviation, his body was injured and not suitable for major exertion; instead, he refined his internal energy to be pure and even purer, beginning to nourish the injured acupoints everywhere.
