The Immortal Wild God - Chapter 5

Chapter 5 Apprentice
“Haha, Patriarch, please return. After all, I have just become a core disciple of Mystical School. There aren’t many people I can bring. No matter what you say, I’m full of people. I can’t bring any more.”

In the center of the Chen Clan’s mansion, in the Hundred Flowers Garden, Xu Po smiled at Chen Tiandi, who was beside him. Immediately, Chen Tiandi also nodded. “Alright, then let’s talk about it in the future. I won’t disturb Xu Keqing’s cultivation now. If anything happens, Xu Keqing can directly send a voice transmission.”

“Yes.”

At this moment, Xu Po nodded. Seeing this scene, Chen Tiandi did not stop. He turned around and led a large group of Chen Clan disciples out. Only Xu Po was left in the Hundred Flowers Garden.

“Chen Xiao, um, Chen Xiao …”

Xu Po muttered to himself, and his eyes changed. “It is indeed astonishing that he has such a good bone frame at such a young age. However, how can he have such a bone frame when he is a servant? Even if he eats spirit herbs and spirit medicines every day, he can’t feed such a bone frame. Unless he has a fortuitous encounter or someone behind him, I have to see his true form.”

Thinking of this, a whoosh came from the Hundred Flowers Garden. Xu Po, who was still standing in the middle of the garden, disappeared.

At the same time, in Chen Xiao’s courtyard, Chen Xiao was currently sitting cross-legged on the ground cultivating the Longevity Technique.

“Breathe … breathe … breathe … breathe … breathe …”

A special breathing sound appeared from Chen Xiao’s nose. Every breath, Whether it was inhaling or exhaling, Chen Xiao said, They would try their best to extend the time from one breath to two breaths, three breaths until ten breaths. After that, they would recover one breath and continue for ten breaths. After the first round of ten breaths, Chen Xiao’s aura had already disappeared. After the second round of ten breaths, Chen Xiao’s aura had already disappeared, as if he had merged with the courtyard.

At the end of the third round of ten breaths, Chen Xiao seemed to have even left the courtyard and entered a state of merging with the air.

“Qi confluence, this is the manifestation of the fifth level of the Mortal Embryo’s internal organs. I didn’t expect that you would have such a performance now. It seems that you won’t be far from breaking through to the fifth level.”

Faint words suddenly came from Chen Xiao’s courtyard. This caused Chen Xiao’s body to tremble, and he abruptly left his cultivation state and looked in the direction where he was speaking.

He saw a young man dressed in green standing in front of him, looking at him calmly.

When he made contact with this gaze, Chen Xiao had a feeling that everything was seen through. Fortunately, Chen Xiao had spent many years in the laborers’ pile, and his reaction was astonishing. In the next moment, he suddenly stood up and bowed deeply to this young man.

“Subordinate Chen Xiao greets Xu Keqing, Lord Xu.”

As he spat out his words, the courtyard was completely silent, and there was no response. Chen Xiao’s heart also became nervous.

‘”Looks like my performance has really made him curious. He actually secretly came to observe me. However, I must not reveal the matter of the Spirit Devouring Demon Grounds, let alone reveal the Spirit Devouring Demon Technique. These two are my life-saving abilities. If I reveal them, I’m afraid that he will immediately take them away. At that time, I won’t have anything left to say.”

Having made up his mind, Chen Xiao also maintained his salute posture and remained motionless as he waited.

“Get up.”

After a long time, three words came out of Xu Po’s mouth. Hearing this, Chen Xiao straightened up and looked at Xu Po.

“The son of a laborer has such a bone-rooted temperament. It’s really very rare, and it’s also very unreasonable.”

Looking at Chen Xiao, Xu Po said indifferently, “If you were born with this kind of talent, then your cultivation speed would be incomparably fast. I don’t know what kind of conflict you have with Manager Wang, but Manager Wang can’t stop you from advancing. But now, you are at the same level as Manager Wang. This proves that your talent is not born, it was nurtured the day after tomorrow.”

A series of words came out of Xu Po’s mouth. His tone was very faint, but in Chen Xiao’s mind, it was like thunder, causing Chen Xiao’s breathing to be a little confused.

“Oh? Your breathing is a little messed up. It seems that what I said is true.”

Xu Po’s eyes lit up. “Next, I’ll give you a chance to tell me what you’ve obtained. To be honest, I won’t do anything to you. If any lies are exposed by me, then you’ll only die.”

Chen Xiao’s eyes lit up as he spat out his words. In the next moment, a smile appeared on Chen Xiao’s face.

“Haha, it’s Young Master Xu Po. He actually saw through this subordinate’s true colors with a single glance. Originally, this subordinate wanted to conceal it for a lifetime, but now, it seems that this subordinate can’t do it anymore.”

As he spoke, Chen Xiao took out a round jade pendant from his bosom and threw it directly to Xu Po.

“Young Master Xu, everything I have comes from this jade pendant. Inside this jade pendant, there is a martial art called the Longevity Technique …”

A series of words were spoken by Chen Xiao. Chen Xiao said half truthfully that he had obtained a cultivation technique from this jade pendant, but he concealed the existence of Goblin.

After Chen Xiao finished speaking, Xu Po’s eyes lit up. “You mean that your blood accidentally contaminated this jade pendant? This jade pendant gave you a cultivation technique called the Longevity Technique? And it also gave you a pure spiritual energy?”

“Yes.”

Chen Xiao nodded.

“Yes.” Xu Po also nodded. With a wave of his palm, he immediately flew out. The jade pendant in Chen Xiao’s hand was in his hand on the spot. Afterwards, Xu Po began to carefully observe it.

After observing for a moment, Xu Po raised his eyebrows, and then his body moved. He abruptly arrived beside Chen Xiao and grabbed Chen Xiao’s arm with a palm.

Faced with such a change, Chen Xiao didn’t resist at all. He just obediently allowed Xu Po to observe.

“Tendons and bones have indeed undergone changes only after being infused with spiritual energy.”

A moment later, Xu Po nodded and said, “Looks like you really aren’t lying.”

Chen Xiao heaved a sigh of relief as soon as he said this. On the other hand, he said respectfully, “In front of Xu Keqing, how could this lowly person have the courage to speak in a panic?”

‘”Haha, don’t say that. Previously, I ordered you not to kill people, but you killed them all. Do you have the guts to violate my order? Are you afraid of lying?”

Xu Po smiled faintly.

Hearing this, Chen Xiao’s body trembled and he directly said, “Lord Xu, don’t misunderstand. I was forced to kill people, and I didn’t intentionally violate Lord Xu’s ban …”

“Alright, this is all a small matter. There’s no need to explain.”

Xu Po said indifferently, “Let’s talk about this fortuitous encounter that you’ve obtained. There is indeed a surge of spiritual energy within this jade pendant. You have indeed obtained the infusion of this spiritual energy to change your aptitude. However, do you know that there is a price for this?” “Your realm is too weak, and your muscles and bones have been forcefully altered by spiritual energy. This has already greatly damaged your lifespan. In my opinion, you only have ten years of life at most.”

“What!”

Hearing this, Chen Xiao immediately made a look of shock. He was glad that he had cultivated the Spirit Devouring Demon Technique and was actually understood by Xu Po as the disadvantage of being infused with Spiritual Qi. There was no need for him to be lying.

“You didn’t hear wrongly.”

Xu Po nodded. ‘”You are not at your cultivation realm, yet you forcefully absorbed high-level energy, causing damage to your lifespan. If you cultivate like this, you will die within ten years. However, you will also have an opportunity to meet me. You are a lucky person. This kind of person’s fate is changeable, either reaching the Nine Heavens or going straight down to the Nine Earths. So, I would like to see your future. Do you wish to become my honorary disciple?”

“Disciple, greet Master!”

Hearing this, Chen Xiao immediately bowed.

“Haha, good. If you can be so sensible, then your future will definitely be good. Next, there may be some pain. You have to endure it.”

Xu Po smiled at this moment. In the next moment, his palm suddenly landed on Chen Xiao’s forehead. Instantly, an intense pain surged out of Chen Xiao’s mind. Chen Xiao felt as if a piece of his spirit had been cut off at this moment.

Fortunately, this kind of pain did not last for too long. After a few breaths, the pain disappeared. Chen Xiao also panted and his face became much paler.

On Xu Po’s palm, there were traces of cyan light. This light was exactly the same as Chen Xiao’s aura.

“This is your spiritual energy. In other words, it is part of your soul energy.”

Xu Po said, “If this thing is in my hands, it means that your life is in my hands. As long as you dare to disobey my orders or betray me, then all I need to do is destroy this spiritual energy, and you will directly become a madman who loses all of your memories.”

Hearing this, Chen Xiao’s face turned even paler. In the next moment, he bent down and cupped his fists. “Disciple, you absolutely dare not betray Master!”

“Haha, good.”

Xu Po smiled. In the next moment, he flicked his finger and a pill arrived in Chen Xiao’s hand.

“This pill is called the Zang Fu Pill. Eat it. After that, he will slowly release the medicinal power along with your cultivation, allowing you to quickly break through to the 5th level of the Mortal Embryo Zang Fu Realm.”

“Thank you, Master!”

Chen Xiao said another sentence and directly swallowed the pill into his stomach.

“En, take a rest. Follow me in three days.”

At this moment, Xu Po nodded again. With a wave of his hand, he threw the jade pendant to Chen Xiao and disappeared without a trace.

Seeing Xu Po’s disappearing figure, Chen Xiao’s eyes lit up at this moment.

“I really didn’t expect that after leaving slavery, I would be controlled by someone again. It’s really uneven, it’s rising again and again.”

“However, this isn’t necessarily a bad thing. Although it has been a bit more difficult, it can temper my spiritual will. Moreover, with Spirit Devouring Skill and the Longevity Technique in hand, I will definitely be able to make a difference within ten years. This temporary control is nothing.”

Countless thoughts flashed through his mind. In the next moment, Chen Xiao sat down cross-legged and entered cultivation again.
