Chapter 398: Chapter 299: Short Teleportation Talisman_1
With the help of Chen Mobai’s Flame Lighting Technique, Luo Yixuan sat with her eyes closed on the top of Xiao Nanshan.
She cultivated the Water Wood Technique, connecting the two elements in her dantian’s Qi Sea. The Black Water Spiritual Power transformed into a ripple-like pool, and the Longevity Spiritual Power turned into a piece of green wood rooted on the edge of the ripple.
The green wood absorbed water, but at this moment, a point of light resembling a miniature sun landed within the wood.
This was the manifestation of Chen Mobai’s Flame Lighting Technique, and it would serve as the fire seed.
While it slowly consumed the Longevity Spiritual Power, it also refined out the deeply ingrained toxicity from the Dan, leaving only the purest Wood Attribute Spiritual Power to be absorbed by the Black Water Spiritual Power. This process furthered enhanced Luo Yixuan’s foundation.
Chen Mobai sat on a wooden chair at the top of the mountain and took out a teapot. By using water condensation and ignition techniques, a pot of boiling water was quickly prepared.
Watching Luo Yixuan sitting on the grass, her creamy skin glowing in aqua and crimson hues, he nodded with satisfaction.
This signified the successful implantation of his Flame Lighting Technique into his disciple’s dantian.
However, his cultivation level was not as advanced as the man in the red robe, so this technique could only last for about seven days. After seven days, the fire seed of the Flame Lighting Technique in Luo Yixuan’s dantian would be exhausted.
By then, he would have to replant it, which could prove troublesome for him.
He couldn’t help but admire the man in the red robe who had simply planted a flame that lasted in his dantian for six months when he initially cultivated the Five Elements Technique.
The gap between Foundation Establishment and Core Formation was indeed vast.
Just as he was about to finish his pot of tea, Luo Yixuan finished circulating her energy and opened her eyes, shining brightly.
“Thank you, Master, for bestowing me this technique.”
Rising, she felt as invigorated as if she’d enjoyed a refreshing bath. She was about to bow deeply to Chen Mobai in gratitude, but he stopped her.
“Stand up. I’m quite casual. No need for such formalities.”
After lifting Luo Yixuan up out of thin air, Chen Mobai motioned for her to extend her hand over for a pulse check, intending to see if he could stack the Flame Lighting Technique to avoid administering it every seven days.
However, halfway through the test, Luo Yixuan’s normally translucent and smooth complexion suddenly turned very red. She started to break out in sweat. Large beads of perspiration seeped from her pure white skin, soaking her white palace dress. The damp clothing clung to her body, revealing her delicate and charming curves.
“Why didn’t you tell me you were feeling unwell?”
Upon seeing this, Chen Mobai withdrew the spiritual power of the Flame Lighting Technique that had just entered Luo Yixuan’s body, then immediately took his fingers off her wrist.
“Receiving the grace of my master, how could I refuse due to some minor discomfort?”
Luo Yixuan breathed lightly, her sweaty face glowing with jade-like radiance. As she spoke, she couldn’t help using her long sleeves to wipe the sweat from her forehead and cheeks.
“Alright, as your master, I will take you down the mountain. Rest well. Once the effect of the Flame Lighting Technique dissipates, come up the mountain again.”
Observing alert by Luo Yixuan sweating profusely, Chen Mobai unfurled a “Red Misty Cloud Silk” from his wrist. It spread into mist, obscuring her sweat-drenched body from sight except for her head.
The mist then lifted them both, transforming into a cloud and flying down from Xiao Nanshan.
“You stay with Zhuo Ming for now.”
After Chen Mobai delivered Luo Yixuan to a wooden house at the foot of the mountain, he pointed to the house of his second disciple. Once Luo Yixuan jumped off the “Red Misty Cloud Silk”, she instinctively began to show deep respect again.
“Your esteemed presence, Master, fills this disciple with trepidation.”
However, remembering Chen Mobai’s words, she switched her deep bow to a slight curtsy. Still, her words were as respectful as ever.
“Don’t cultivate these few days, take care of your health first. After the effect of the Flame Lighting Technique has worn off, resume cultivating. If anything happens, use the Message Talisman to tell me, and don’t hesitate.”
After leaving these words, Chen Mobai turned and flew up Xiao Nanshan on the “Red Misty Cloud Silk”.
Luo Yixuan watched his retreating figure. The obedient expression on her face dissipated, replaced with a slightly bewildered look.
This teacher was unlike any other she had ever encountered.
He seemed different from the Immortal Cultivators in the Eastern Wilderness. He didn’t have the imposing aura of oppression that normally accompanied a cultivator at the Foundation Establishment stage. Despite being the most outstanding genius in the Divine Wood Sect for the past hundred years, he did not exhibit the overbearing pride of Mu Yuan and his brother. He was as warm-hearted and tranquil as jade, nothing seeming to disturb his tranquillity.
Perhaps, this was the mark of a true Immortal.
Compared to her master, the other True Disciples in the Sect were like stones compared to fine jade.
Luo Yixuan watched Chen Mobai, who was now just a tiny spot in the sky. Silently, she clenched her fist, thinking that she had indeed chosen the right person to rely on this time.
Ever since Luo Shupin’s mishap, the Luo family had been beset with difficulties. Whether the family would survive depended on the ruling of the higher-ups in the Divine Wood Sect. Luo Yixuan’s initial reaction had been to abandon ship.
However, she had been part of the Luo family since birth, and that label was as much a part of her as her surname.
As long as the deficit in the Spirit Stone Mine in the Lei Nation was not resolved, no one in the Divine Wood Sect would risk linking themselves to her or her brother.
In this crucial moment, Chen Mobai appeared.
She cleverly seized this lone opportunity and successfully aroused his sympathetic heart with her tale of woe.
Interestingly, Luo Yixuan had initially been planning on revealing her true cultivation level to Chen Mobai, but it turned out he had already seen through her from the beginning.
