I'm Actually a Cultivation Bigshot

Chapter 578: The Key To Closing The Gap In Skill

Even Bai Chen’s moustache flew up as he said hoarsely, “Wisdom Veins, these are definitely Wisdom Veins!”

He stared at the strokes on the calligraphy, and wanted to plant his face right on it. His eyes were almost popping out of their sockets.

Qin Zhongshan was not in a better state. The man’s body was trembling intensely, his expression unsteady as various emotions were surging up as he panted roughly.

That thing was way too valuable, the most valuable treasures were worthless in front of that calligraphy!

If it were somehow stranded outside, without a doubt, there would be tremendous amounts of bloodshed immediately. Even Deities of the Heavenly Realm would try and fight for it. Tremendous amounts of bloodshed was probably understating it, it might even plunge the whole of Chaos into a panic.

Looking at the strokes on the paper, Bai Chen’s heart ached, his eyes reddened, tears gathered and his mouth frowned, as if he was about to cry.

He then looked at the brush Shi Tuqin had in hand, and he let out a long sigh, “Ah, what a waste of treasures!”

By the side, Nuwa looked at Shi Tuqin with an envious expression. That girl was immensely blessed to be able to cultivate next to the expert. It was obvious how terrifying she would be in the future.

Bai Chen was fixated, and could feel the beauty and power held within each stroke of the brush. It caused him to sink into it, wanting to throw his mind and body into it and give it everything he had.

For Wisdom, even death was a price worth paying.

He could not help but raise his hand and touch the strokes on the paper.

Yet, before he could even touch it, a horrifying energy exploded forward from the paper. The group only felt time stop as they shuddered. After that, with a sound of a scoff, a horrifying attack shot out from that singular stroke, going straight for Bai Chen’s throat!

The immense force exploded like a cannonball, and sent Bai Chen flying.

Boom!

Bai Chen slammed right into the walls of the courtyard, forming a massive imprint before he slowly slipped off the wall.

The robes on his body were all ruined.

The place fell into silence.

Cold sweat dripped from Bai Chen’s forehead, on his neck, where the wound was, fresh red blood was oozing out, causing him to choke.

Death had never been so close to him.

If the calligraphy had not shown mercy, then… He would have been killed by the power of Dao that it emitted!

“Oh!”

He felt his qi and blood lurch, and the taste of blood filled his throat as blood threatened to pour out of his body.

The next moment, Daji’s cold voice could be heard as she shouted, “Swallow it back!”

Bei Chen did not dare to disobey, and without another thought, he forced his mouth shut, forcing his throat to move. With a gulp, he swallowed his blood back.

He did not dare to show any signs of unhappiness, smiling as he said, “I’m so sorry, I almost dirtied the expert’s place.”

Fire Phoenix shook her head, saying, “Without master’s permission, no one can touch anything here!”

“I lost control of myself for a moment, I was impolite, thank you for not killing me.”

He faced the calligraphy and bowed deeply, bowing down three times.

The others finally snapped back to reality as they all looked at those words, their emotions flowing. Shi Tuqin was so shocked she covered her mouth with her paws, here eyes were wide in disbelief.

She knew that the calligraphy was especially valuable, but she never expected the strokes on it to have such terrifying powers.

If the expert had not allowed it, she would have already died many times over.

It was way too scary.

Qin Zhongshan took a deep breath as he exclaimed in shock, “A treasure like that, that has already formed its own Dao, isn’t something a regular person can touch.”

Putting aside Chaos Ultimate Spiritual Treasures, even Ultimate Heavenly Spiritual Treasures would already have formed their own spirits. Normal people would not be able to control them, and would be repelled. The calligraphy had naturally done that.

Just being able to see one was already an immense blessing, and being acknowledged by one was a blessing of several lifetimes. If one made any mistakes and angered the treasure, they would be killed off!

Bai Chen nodded deeply, “I really overestimated myself.”

Because of that, it caused them to envy Shi Tuqin even more. Without the approval of the expert, how could she have the qualifications to hold such an amazing brush and write on such an amazing canvas?

The difference between them was way too huge, it made them want to cry…

Sure enough, just like a philosopher had once said, behind every powerful person was an unbelievable amount of luck…

That was the true key to increasing ones skill…

Shi Tuqin carefully looked at the calligraphy, meekly saying, “Senior…”

Bai Chen immediately let out a kind smile, saying, “Senior? That’s too much! I’m your Grandpa Bai! If you have any difficulties in the future, come find me!”

“And Grandpa Qin as well!”

Qin Zhongshan did not hesitate to say, “The Empath Sect is good friends with the Legendary Beast Sect. A princess of the Legendary Beast Sect is naturally a princess of the Empath Sect!”

Shi Tuqin’s lips twitched at the two old men’s words, she said softly, “Grandpa Bai, Grandpa Qin…”

“Yes, good girl!”

Qin Zhongshan and Bei Chen smiled, feeling even happier than being called that by their own grandchildren.

“Tuqin, I knew you were something special the moment I saw you, your future will be limitless!”

“You have a heavenly demeanor, a heavenly demeanor!”

Nuwa, who had been silently observing it, rolled her eyes, feeling speechless.

‘Shameless old coots!’

‘If I’m not mistaken, the two of you were lamenting this being a waste? Now you’re trying to gain her favor?’

‘I can tell that this little girl’s potential is great, it’s time to curry some favor.’

“Ah.”

At that moment, the sound of a door opening could be heard. Causing everyone to quiver, especially Bai Chen and Qin Zhongshan who were playing around. They immediately. Sat up in distress, not daring to breathe.

He’s here, the expert is here!

Li Nianfan’s hands were holding a wooden barrel, and even his pockets were bulging as he carried a bunch of fruits, leisurely walking in. When he saw the visitors, his eyes brightened as he smiled, “Oh, I was wondering why the zither stopped playing and the courtyard felt quite noisy. So Daji’s back, and she brought guests. Lady Nuwa, it’s been a long time.”

Nuwa was surprised, and immediately replied, “Greetings to Lord Saint.”

Qin Zhongshan hurried as well, “Greetings to Lord Saint.”

Bai Chen adjusted his clothes, and nervously and respectfully said, “I am the sect leader of the White Cloud Sect, Bai Chen, greetings to Lord Saint.”

Unlike the others, it was the first time he was visiting the expert. Not only did he know of the expert’s strength, he had also been taught a lesson earlier. Setting aside the respect in his heart, if not for his restraint, he would even have knelt down and kowtowed…

Li Nianfan nodded, replying, “So you’re Cultivator Bai, hello.”

He slowly walked to the pond in the courtyard, and poured the lychees inside.

The pond had a refrigerating effect, and was the best place to wash the lychees. Feeling the coldness of the water, and looking at the lychees that were resting inside, Li Nianfan felt himself about to drool.

After that, he put down the longans and cherries, those could be eaten at any time.

Qin Zhongshan and Bai Chen looked at the lychees in the water, and the fruits in the other two barrels, and their minds stopped working.

They were so pitiful that even an orange had been enough for them to feel elated. Only now did they know that Chaos Spirit Fruits could be mass produced, and there were even so many types.

It was even being washed in Chaos Spiritual Water. That scene was something they would not even dare to dream about.

Looking around them again, they suddenly felt like beggars visiting an extremely rich person.

“Sit down, please.”

Li Nianfan said as he walked over, enthusiastically saying, “You all came at the right time, some new fruits have just ripened. You can all try it out.”

Bai Chen and the others immediately said sincerely, “Thank you, Lord Saint.”

Li Nianfan casually noticed that large Taotie that had already been trapped, and said curiously, “Daji, is this the surprised you prepared for me?”

“That’s right.” Daji smiled, “This is a Taotie.”

“Taotie?”

Li Nianfan was slightly taken aback, and then he felt a sense of elation. It’s flavors were incredibly unique, and he was definitely pleased.

That was a massive beast that was said to be able to devour anything, and now it was about to be eaten by him?

That was great.

He hurriedly walked over, and appraised it in detail. He could not help but say, “It probably wasn’t easy capturing this?”

Daji said, “it was fine, Nuwa, Cultivator Bai and Cultivator Qin all put in quite a bit of effort.”

At those words, Bai Cehn and the others felt a wave of embarrassment.

In all honesty, Bai Chen and Qin Zhongshan merely carried it. As for Nuwa, she had merely cheered from the side…

Li Nianfan saluted them, “Thank you, everyone.”

The Taotie’s appearance was quite unique. It had a long horn on its head, and had four black eyes. It’s mouth took up half its body. It had four legs, and just from appearances alone, it looked incredibly ferocious.

What puzzled Li Nianfan was how he was going to eat that.

First of all, the mouth had to be cut away, but then half its body would be gone…

“The horn on its head looks a bit like a deer’s, we can use it like a deer’s antlers, it might be very nutritious.”

“As for the meat on its body. There are two ways that are the most common and won’t go wrong. The first is to make them into dumplings. Most of the meat is suitable for that. Then we can grill it! Almost every meat can be grilled, and the taste should be quite good.”

Li Nianfan could not be bothered to experiment on other methods, so he said, “the legs will be grilled, the rest of the body will be chopped up and made into cabbage and Taotie dumplings!”

Speaking of which, it had been a long time since he last ate dumplings, he salivated just thinking about it.

Li Nianfan faced Xiao Bai, “Xiao Bai, go handle the Taotie. Chop a leg up first and grill it, I’ll treat the guests.”

“Yes, my honored master.”

Xiao Lin nodded and dragged the Taotie away to prepare it.

Li Nianfan then had Daji bring out fruits and some cakes, and got everyone to eat and chat.

At the same time.

In the Chaos, a massive and majestic spiritual boat was moving steadily, moving toward the Area of the Gods.

On the deck.

A young man sat down cross legged. In front of him was a green Guqin. He did not play it, and was gently stroking it.

Behind him, an old man with a white moustache and white hair was standing uneasily, pursing his lips in nervousness.

The old man looked toward one direction in the Chaos. His eyes constantly flickered as emotions danced through his heart.

Last time, when he saw the location of the Area of the Gods on the star map, he had felt a sense of familiarity. Upon closer inspection, he almost shouted out. Was that not his old home?

‘How could my old home be the Area of the Gods? It’s definitely a mistake!’

Going the wrong way was one thing, but it had locked onto his old home, how could he be so unlucky?

He looked at the young man, and was incredibly anxious. If he really brought the emperor into the Eldritch World, and it turned out to be an underdeveloped world instead of the Area of the Gods, the emperor might just destroy the place in anger!

In the end, the old man resolved himself, and clenched his teeth, “Emperor, I think that… the location on the star map isn’t where the Area of the Gods is, I hope that you can reconfirm it.”

Only following the emperor did he feel such a sense of dread.

That spiritual boat was floating in the Chaos. As it searched for chances in the Chaos, the emperor would definitely enter any little world that they met.

In his eyes, he did not care if the worlds were strong or weak, and he only wanted to encounter various Daos to prove the strength of his own. He was basically looking for opponents within the Chaos.

Everytime he encounters an opponent that interests him, he would suppress his realm, and face the opponent at the same level, wanting to increase his understanding that day.

However, anyone could see that he merely wanted to trample on various Daos to establish his own. Even though he seemed to control his own realm, he still never lost.

It was like a university student challenging a primary school student, claiming to only compete with primary school questions.

The victors were actually already certain.

Furthermore, not only would the university student win, he also wanted to learn various different ways to solve the questions from different primary school students, perfecting himself.

In truth, discussing Daos was far more cruel than solving questions!

The old man naturally did not want his world to be destroyed, nor did he was to see his world being trampled on. Staring as his home town got closer, he resisted the dread in his heart as he asked.

“You came over to tell me that?”

The young man’s expression did not change, and seemed to be asking calmly.

However, the next moment, his finger gently flicked a string.

Twang!

The sound was very soft, but the next moment, the old man seemed to have been struck by lightning, and his body was sent flying, crashing on the spiritual boat as his whole body spasmed.

That sound seemed to reverberate in his ears,piercing right into his soul, his Primordial Spirit reached the verge of collapse.

“You should just obediently cultivate your pills. Do you really think you have the right to speak in front of me?”
