Originally, Lin Xuan’s trip was for the sake of the Myriad Form Grass. It was really unexpected that things have evolved into the current situation. However, the doubts of the past had been solved one by one. The best choice now was to make a fortune while keeping a low profile.
Tian Xiaojian also put away his smiling expression and lowered his head slightly. No one knew what he was thinking about.
However, whether it was a disciple or servant, Lin Xuan didn’t think he would agree!
As for Xu Han, his face was cloudy and moody. From ti to ti, his lips moved slightly, discussing sothing with the cultivator of the Core Formation Stage beside him through telepathy.
For a little while, there was an awkward silence in the hall, but it was broken suddenly.
“Kid, would you like to worship this old man as your teacher? I originally only wanted to find a servant, but you have a good attitude, and I think you’re talented enough to inherit my legacy.”
An old voice was heard in his ear. Lin Xuan was startled and then understood that it was the voice of the Red-Haired Ancestor.
He didn’t show any expression on his face. When he raised his head, he saw that the Nascent Soul Stage old man was still sitting on the chair in the middle of the hall. His eyes were closed as if he didn’t say what he had just said.
Lin Xuan was moved and he lowered his head again.
“You’re very smart, and this old man appreciates you a lot. How about it, are you willing to acknowledge as a teacher?”
Lin Xuan didn’t answer imdiately. If it was another Foundation Establishnt Stage cultivator, he would definitely be overjoyed if he encountered such a good thing, but Lin Xuan has his own considerations.
He was not the sa as others.
First of all, he was not a genius in cultivation. The truth was the opposite. If he took the Red-Haired Ancestor as his master, sooner or later he would find out that he was just a mortal without a Spiritual Root.
Then how should he explain his cultivation base? Perhaps even the secret of the Blue Star Sea would be discovered.
In any case, Lin Xuan would naturally not let this happen.
Although he also took Sect Master Tong Yu as his teacher, he was only teaching him alchemy. He didn’t care about his Cultivation thod or Magic Arts and gave him the greatest freedom. That was why he was willing to stay in Spirit Pill Mountain. But this situation with the Red-Haired Ancestor was different.
On the other hand, even if he didn’t care about those matters. He was not sure whether he could get any great benefits by taking an elder of the Nascent Soul Stage as his master.
On the surface, this was almost the consensus of all people. As the saying goes, it’s good to enjoy the shade under a big tree. First of all, with such a powerful master, his status would be completely different.
Not to ntion that with an expert’s guidance, you could avoid a lot of detours, and the Cultivation thod taught by a Nascent Soul Stage cultivator was definitely at the top level!
But the truth was not necessarily so.
A cultivator who practiced the path of immortality seed to have no desires on the surface, but in fact, they are more snobbish than the secular people. Their relationships were also a little colder and indifferent. Indeed, there were many cases where a master and disciple were filial to each other, but it was not uncommon for them to quarrel or even turn against each other.
And this Red-Haired Ancestor was just one of the temperantal ones. Don’t look at today’s vow to accept himself as a disciple. It’s not impossible for him to just extract and refine his soul if they had so disagreents in the future.
There is a saying in the mortal world that “n are afraid of getting into the wrong line, and won are afraid of marrying the wrong man.” In the Cultivation World, the sa is true for masters and apprentices.
As an expert in the Nascent Soul Stage, taking him as his master would most certainly have a lot of benefits. But there were also many hidden dangers. Whether it was a blessing or a curse, it was hard to say.
Lin Xuan didn’t intend to gamble. The secret of the Blue Star Sea couldn’t be exposed. The biggest advantage for others to take a Nascent Soul Stage cultivator as their master was that they could easily obtain Top-level Cultivation thods.
Although there were thousands of cultivation thods, a few of them were at the top level. Even the major sects cherished them, let alone an outsider. Even official sect disciples couldn’t be taught unless their cultivation base and status reached a certain level. In a sense, a good cultivation thod is more valuable than pills and Magic Artifacts.
Although there were even cultivation thods of the Core Formation Stage sold in the markets, they were trash. The power and magical abilities gained after mastering a top-level compared to an ordinary level cultivation thod were not in the sa breath.
And for those old monsters, even if the Cultivation thod they practiced before was slightly inferior, but after condensing a Nascent Soul, they were for sure to grab them both openly and secretly. So they most definitely had no shortage of Top-level Cultivation thods in their hands.
However, this temptation was of little interest to Lin Xuan.
Although the Nine Heavens Profound Art could not be said to be the most powerful Cultivation thod of the Righteous Path, it was certain that it ranked at the top. As for the Profound Demon Scripture, one could imagine its power by how arrogant the Extre Demon Venerable is behaving right now.
What was more, he also had the Yin-Yang Art, and can simultaneously cultivate the two great thods which were incompatible with each other at the sa ti. Their advantages were complentary, and the power was naturally superior.
Although he didn’t know what kind of amazing cultivation thod the Red-Haired Ancestor owned, Lin Xuan was willing to bet that it was definitely slightly worse than the two unique techniques he had.
So although other people coveted his Top-grade Cultivation thod, Lin Xuan didn’t care at all.
After weighing the pros and cons, Lin Xuan decided not to do such a stupid thing since he couldn’t see himself getting any benefits from this old man at the Nascent Soul Stage. On the contrary, he might suffer a great disaster.
Of course, such a blunt refusal will not work, even ordinary people would care about their face, but to ntion a cultivator at the Nascent Soul Stage. So he must have a sufficient reason, Lin Xuan began to ponder.
“Well, kid, it’s taking a long ti for you to decide. Isn’t this the reason why you snatched the quota for the trade fair?”
The Red-Haired Ancestor’s voice rang in his ears again, but this ti he was obviously a little impatient.
Lin Xuan frowned, contemplated in his heart, and ca up with an idea:
“Thank you for your great kindness senior, I’m extrely flattered. I don’t know how many life-long virtues I have accumulated to have co across such good fortune…”
The Red-Haired Ancestor narrowed his eyes slightly, and he was obviously very happy to hear that. However, Lin Xuan changed the topic and said, “It’s just coincidently, I’m a disciple of Blue Cloud Mountain, and I’m already a disciple of one of the sect’s elders. So I can only let you down…”
“What? You’re a disciple of Blue Cloud Mountain, one of the Big Three?! And you’ve taken one of its elders as your master?” The Red-haired Ancestor opened his eyes and his voice was full of surprise.”
