Chapter 12: Lifting the Heavy as Light, Lifting the Light as Heavy

~8 min read 1,543 words

This water vat weighed at least two hundred jin! He, Lu Yang, no matter how much he liked playing in the mountains since he was a child, could climb trees and go down rivers, could hit birds and fish, he couldn't lift such a heavy water vat.

Miss Yun Zhi drew a talisman on the water vat casually, and the weight of the water vat decreased sharply, reaching the level that Lu Yang could just lift with one hand.

She took out a puppet to supervise Lu Yang.

"Lift it for a day first to see the effect."

Miss Yun Zhi left a light sentence and disappeared into the clouds. Lu Yang and the puppet looked at each other. He sighed, wrapped his coat around his waist, and began the miserable life of lifting vats.

The puppet supervised from the side. After Lu Yang rested for a while, he immediately let him continue lifting the vats, squeezing every bit of his strength.

His arms were really powerless, so the puppet fed two big tonic pills. His arms were so sore that he couldn't move, so the puppet fed two big tonic pills. Lu Yang was so sleepy that he wanted to sleep, so the puppet fed two big tonic pills...

After a day, Lu Yang's legs were shaking, his arms were drooping, and he couldn't feel the existence of his arms at all. His body swayed to the left, his left arm swayed like a pendulum, his body swayed to the right, his right arm also swayed, and then he fell to the ground with a thud.

The puppet poured two big tonic pills as usual. Seeing that Lu Yang had no reaction, he had to end the day's training, found a small cart, pushed Lu Yang back with the small cart, and covered it with a straw mat.

Smelling the fragrance of the meal, Lu Yang's body reacted and began to drool, and his consciousness gradually cleared.

Finally able to eat, Lu Yang breathed a sigh of relief. If he couldn't eat, he would have thought that he was not apprenticed into an immortal sect, but had committed an unforgivable crime and was being tortured in a water prison.

Apprenticed under the Sect Master, there was no need to worry about food. There was no need to take Grain Bigu Pills every day. Various rare ingredients that he didn't know were made into delicious dishes, silently improving Lu Yang's body.

Lu Yang still couldn't lift his arms, and the puppet fed him the whole time.

After the meal, Miss Yun Zhi boiled a large pot of body-quenching potion and let Lu Yang take a bath in it. Lu Yang smelled the medicinal smell in the air and almost fainted.

"Hold it." Miss Yun Zhi handed Lu Yang a hollow reed tube.

"This is?"

"When soaking in the body-quenching potion, you must soak your whole body. When you take a bath, your head must be exposed. Later, you bite the reed tube, soak your head in, and use the reed tube to breathe."

Lu Yang felt that it was worthy of being Senior Sister, thinking so thoughtfully, although she tortured him, it was also for his own good.

After Miss Yun Zhi left, Lu Yang stripped naked, bit the reed tube, jumped into the wooden barrel with a splash, and then came the heart-piercing pig-killing sound.

"Senior Sister, you use boiling water to take a bath?!"

Miss Yun Zhi came to the small courtyard, the breeze blew, blowing away the smell of the medicinal bath left on her, and she began to think about what else hadn't been considered.

She grew up in an immortal cave, the people she contacted were practitioners, and later she apprenticed into the Profound Heaven Sect, focusing on cultivation, rarely touching the mortal world, and knew very little about mortals.

In order to teach Lu Yang, she found many books describing mortals. When Lu Yang was learning cultivation common sense, she was also learning mortal common sense.

But it was clear that the books describing mortals didn't write the temperature of the bath water for mortals.

Hearing Lu Yang's hoarse shouting, Miss Yun Zhi thought about it. It was too late to cool the water now. In this way, it could only...

Miss Yun Zhi took a bottle of burn ointment from her sleeve, placed it at the door, and knocked on the door.

"Junior brother, I put the burn ointment at the door. Remember to use it."

After a period of time, with the help of forced tireless cultivation, spirit beast meat, and special medicinal baths, Lu Yang finally grew from an ordinary mortal, burned and peeled, into an excellent folk artist who was good at playing with vats.

Three two-hundred-jin water vats were thrown around by Lu Yang like sandbags, forming an arc in the air.

At the same time, Lu Yang could also walk in the Eight Trigrams steps on the edge of the water vat, as if walking on flat ground.

He could even put the water vat down, step on the rolling water vat, and be as stable as Mount Tai, and still have the energy to play with the other three water vats!

With this hand alone, he could attract bursts of cheers on the street!

"Not bad, the progress of body refining is a few points faster than I estimated." Miss Yun Zhi clapped gently, giving Lu Yang great confidence.

Don't look at Miss Yun Zhi rarely appearing, in fact, she has always paid attention to Lu Yang's progress.

"Can I cultivate?" Lu Yang put down the vat and asked excitedly, waiting quietly for the result, not even panting.

During the time he was refining his body, Meng Jingzhou had looked for him, but didn't say a few words before being driven away by the puppet.

He heard that Meng Jingzhou, Man Gu, and others in the same period as him had already introduced Qi into the body, becoming real cultivators, practicing meditation every day, transcendent and dusty, only he himself was still bitterly refining his body, which made him somewhat anxious, feeling that he had been left behind too much, and the psychological gap was too large.

Miss Yun Zhi didn't answer, took out a piece of tofu from the storage space. The tofu was very soft, trembling in Miss Yun Zhi's fair palm, like a balloon full of water.

"Palm down, grab it."

Lu Yang felt that there was nothing difficult about this, and did as he was told, grabbing the tofu, but he moved his fingers slightly, and the tofu was crushed by him, falling all over the ground.

Miss Yun Zhi continued to hand Lu Yang a piece of tofu, signaling him to continue.

Lu Yang didn't believe in evil either, feeling that the first time was an accident, and the second time would definitely be fine.

The tofu was still crushed, and he couldn't hold it at all.

After the third failure, Lu Yang knew the problem. His strength was too great now, and it was already difficult to control. That was to say, the items around him were used by cultivators. If they were replaced by ordinary items, he would have to be careful even when eating, so as not to break the chopsticks or crush the bowl if he was not careful.

And his strength grew too fast, and his brain hadn't kept up with the speed of his body, which was why his fingers twitched from time to time.

In this way, how easy is it to grab a piece of tofu that is as soft as water?

Miss Yun Zhi no longer handed Lu Yang tofu. She held the tofu and shook it at will. The tofu swayed, but it didn't scatter.

Suddenly, Miss Yun Zhi let go, the tofu fell, and she grabbed the tofu again at a very fast speed!

Lu Yang widened his eyes, grabbing the falling tofu, how easy is this?

Under Senior Sister's strength, the soft tofu was no different from a piece of iron and could be played with at will.

"You have already done lifting the heavy as light, and you are still far from lifting the light as heavy."

Lu Yang was silent. He knew that he was still far from the end of body refining. Cultivation could not be impatient. Meng Jingzhou and others had been trained by their families since childhood, so they could cultivate directly.

How easy is it to catch up with these people?

He had no guidance in his childhood. Now he could accept Senior Sister's personal guidance and have the help of heaven and earth treasures. The growth speed was already amazing. What reason did he have to be dissatisfied?

Lu Yang also remembered what Senior Sister said. She said that cultivation is a lifelong thing, and temporary superiority or inferiority is not important. What is important is who can laugh to the end.

Lu Yang took two deep breaths, realizing that his previous mentality was wrong. He adjusted his mentality in time and no longer pursued the progress of cultivation.

Then he saw Senior Sister let the puppet push a cart of tofu. ===== CHAPTER 13 =====
