266: Chapter 262: Can I Beco Your Disciple?
“My legs, my legs…”
Today, Zhou seed to have so bad luck.
When the Big Camphor Tree fell, its thick trunk landed right on his legs.
At that mont, he moaned continuously while trying to pull his legs out from under the trunk.
Unfortunately, whether his leg was broken or sothing else, any slight movent caused him excruciating pain and he could not muster any strength at all.
Compared to Zhou, Fang was in a much better situation.
His situation was sowhat similar to Ye Cheng’s, as only so branches and leaves of the tree crown knocked him to the ground.
However, his clothes got caught on the branches.
When he lifted the branches and got up from the ground, his clothes were torn like a beggar’s, and he looked extrely disheveled.
Apart from the two of them, none of the others were spared, all victimized.
Of course, like Zhou’s misfortune of having his leg broken, he was the only one.
The injuries of the others, though varied in severity, were still much less severe compared to Zhou’s.
“Guys, I’m really sorry, I didn’t an to!”
“I was just testing the power of Little Five Thunder Skill, I had no idea things would turn out this way!”
Realizing sothing was wrong, Chen Hai, who had moved aside at the first sign of trouble, was unaffected by the fall of the camphor tree.
Upon seeing Fang, Ye Cheng, and the others might have been wiped out by the falling tree,
he was full of apologies and hurried back, frantically helping them.
The power of thunder was extrely violent.
When he struck with his palm, the Thunderbolt Power contained within it directly entered the trunk of the tree.
Inside the trunk, it rampaged wildly for a while, completely destroying the internal structure of that section of the trunk before finally bursting out.
If it weren’t for using the Divine Soul Eye to see the Thunder Light scrambling inside the trunk, he wouldn’t have known that his palm strike would do this to the Big Camphor Tree.
Unfortunately, by the ti he observed this, the Thunderbolt Power scrambling inside the trunk was already at the brink of exploding.
He was not a petty person, and had there been more ti, he definitely would have warned Fang, Zhou, and the others to leave the area before he fled.
However, whether these people would heed his advice was another matter.
Take Ye Cheng for instance, of the few people present, he was the most familiar with Chen Hai and should have been the most likely to believe him!
Yet, what happened?
After Chen Hai warned him, he didn’t take it seriously at all, thinking that Chen Hai was just bluffing him.
If even he reacted like this, not to ntion Zhou and Fang who were already doubting him.
“Senior, is this Thunder Skill?
So powerful, a light palm strike and such a big tree broke apart at the trunk.”
“If this palm landed on an ordinary person, who could withstand it?
Even an iron man would probably be dead on the spot!”
“A bunch of ignorants, thinking that Taoism Thunder Skill could only leave a scorched mark on the trunk?”
“Now, they should know that we, Tao Cultivators, once we reach a certain realm, are not easily brought down!”
…
From a distance of fifteen to twenty ters away, Taoist Hu and Old Mrs.
Wu, who had been watching from afar, also quickly arrived here.
Although they ca to help, they couldn’t help but let their words run loose.
While expressing reverence and greeting Chen Hai, these two did not forget to throw a few barbs at Fang and Zhou.
Being forced to co here in the middle of the night and having to stay outdoors, they had harbored quite so resentnt.
Seeing how miserably Fang, Zhou, and the others were dealt with, they clearly felt so schadenfreude.
As for whether their actions would draw dissatisfaction or anger from Fang and others?
Neither Taoist Hu nor Old Mrs.
Wu cared at all.
After all, both were close to being in their coffins, would Fang and the others really detain them over such a trifle?
Faced with the questions raised by Taoist Hu and Old Mrs.
Wu, Chen Hai remained silent.
He had already kindly warned Fang and others to stay as far away as possible before using Little Five Thunder Skill.
But they ignored the advice and didn’t take his words seriously.
After his palm strike and seeing that there was no obvious upheaval, these layn neither heightened their alert nor stopped their sotto voce ridicules, questioning Chen Hai.
Had they been vigilant when Chen Hai urged Ye Cheng to run, they should have reacted!
To put it bluntly, the dire state Fang and Zhou found themselves in was due to their own doing.
On this matter, Chen Hai did not think he made many mistakes.
He kept silent and didn’t join Old Mrs.
Wu and Taoist Hu in making any snide remarks.
He just didn’t want to add fuel to the fire or kick soone when they were down.
After all, Zhou, whose leg was broken, was still wailing nonstop; he was already miserable enough.
With everyone’s help, they had managed to lift the tree trunk, and Zhou was successfully freed.
The military encampnt definitely had first aid kits,
but Zhou’s injuries were not sothing that could be solved by a re first aid kit.
Several soldiers were called to transport the two or three most severely injured people to the hospital.
Fang had a stern face throughout and never showed a good expression to Chen Hai and the others.
If it weren’t for Ye Cheng being here and constantly persuading Chen Hai to stay, he would have already prepared to leave.
“Senior, do you have any tips for transitioning from the Night Tour Realm to the Day Tour Realm?”
It was already late, and Old Mrs.
Wu, Taoist Hu, and Chen Hai were arranged to stay in a military tent.
Issues like the impropriety between n and won did not exist here.
After all, sleeping outdoors and managing to find a place to spend the night was already good enough; one couldn’t ask for too much!
Besides, although Old Mrs.
Wu was a woman, given her age, sharing a tent wasn’t likely to lead to any inappropriate thoughts.
Seizing this opportunity, Taoist Hu imdiately began to seek advice from Chen Hai about various aspects of cultivation.
“Cultivation is about refining the heart.
We cultivators, when facing a breakthrough, should bravely charge forward, daring to risk everything and cut all ans of retreat.”
“Personal belief is the foundation of cultivation.
With beliefs firm as a rock, the chances of breaking through are higher.”
“Anyway, when a person harbors fear in their heart and lacks confidence in themselves, they should not even fantasize about breaking through because it is destined to be a tragic end.”
“This is just my own understanding, as for tricks or tips?
I have none.”
“As a self-taught cultivator with no master to lead the way, everything has been figured out through my own blind groping.”
“I was able to enter the Day Tour Realm mainly because of my belief and perseverance, but mostly, it might just have been luck!”
…
Considering Taoist Hu’s request, Chen Hai thought for a mont before responding.
In this era, it is not easy to encounter fellow cultivators who have truly achieved sothing.
Not to ntion the incident where Taoist Hu shielded him from troubles; just on the basis of both being followers of Taoism, Chen Hai didn’t mind giving him so advice if it was within his capabilities.
After all, when he first embarked on his path, Hou Donggui had always supported him.
Whenever he sought advice, Hou Donggui was always ready to share all he knew.
Taoist Hu currently had no quarrels with him and was earnestly seeking guidance, so naturally, Chen Hai had no reason to refuse.
Originally, Chen Hai’s belief in being able to enter college and reach the Day Tour Realm was very strong.
With the help of the Divine Soul of the leech, his consumption of the Snake Demon and Toad Demon only saved him the effort of accumulating soul power.
However, the transformation of his ntality was entirely up to him.
Honestly, when he first started on the path of cultivation, his character still carried so immaturity and was not quite mature.
After all, he was just an ordinary rural kid with limited exposure and life experience.
But as his cultivation began, as he t more people and witnessed more events, the changes in his character could be seen with the naked eye.
“I have been cultivating for over fifty years.
When I was young, I was indeed bold and aggressive.”
“But since entering the Night Tour Realm over a decade ago, I’ve long lost any faith in whether I could make further breakthroughs.”
“No wonder I’ve been progressing slowly these years; it turns out the issue lies in my ntal state.”
After listening to Chen Hai, Taoist Hu seed to have gained so insights.
He had a bitter look on his face and sighed deeply.
After reflecting for a few monts, with a complicated look at Chen Hai, he said, “Senior, I have the audacity to ask you for sothing…”
He stopped midway and just looked at Chen Hai, wanting to see his reaction.
“Taoist Friend Hu, if you have sothing to say, just say it; I’m the least fond of people beating around the bush in front of .”
Chen Hai said with a casual smile.
“Taoist Hu, even saying a word, you’re hesitating; that doesn’t seem like your character!” Holding a cup of tea, Old Mrs.
Wu sat across from Taoist Hu.
Although her path was not the orthodox way of Taoism, as a fellow cultivator, there were still so commonalities to be found.
As Chen Hai and Taoist Hu discussed matters of cultivation, she quietly listened on the side, hoping to benefit from their conversation.
Seeing Taoist Hu continually hesitating to speak, she pursed her lips and teased.
“Senior Chen, I wonder if I could beco your disciple and study under you…” Stimulated by Old Mrs.
Wu’s words, Taoist Hu finally spoke up.
“Pfft…” Unable to hold back, Old Mrs.
Wu spat out the tea in her mouth, splashing it all over Taoist Hu.
