I Built A Family Of Immortal Cultivators

Chapter 373: Nascent Soul?

Upon hearing that it was the Sect Master of the Thunder Sword Sect, Lin Qing smiled and said, "Master Lei, I have long heard of your name."

"As for Fellow Daoist Lin, I have also heard of you for a long time," Lei Jianzi nodded.

"And this person here is my close friend who has been in seclusion for many years. If it weren't for the intrusion of the demonic path, she probably wouldn't have come out. Fellow Daoist, you can call her Fellow Daoist Hua," said Daoist Mu Bai, pointing to the elderly woman with white hair sitting at the edge. Lin Qing was actually surprised by this old woman as soon as she entered the door. She turned out to be at the late stage of the Gold Core realm, just like Daoist Mu Bai. Although her aura was not as powerful as Daoist Mu Bai's, her strength was still remarkable.

"Greetings, Fellow Daoist Hua," Lin Qing greeted.

"Greetings, Fellow Daoist Lin," Fellow Daoist Hua nodded, her voice a bit soft.

After introducing these three people, Daoist Mu Bai looked at Lin Qing and smiled, saying, "Fellow Daoist Lin, I don't need to introduce you further. Everyone knows you. In fact, the reason for gathering a few Fellow Daoists here is because I have an important matter to discuss."

"Oh, what is it?" Lei Jianzi asked. After receiving Daoist Mu Bai's invitation, he had come all the way here, but Daoist Mu Bai had not told him the reason for the invitation, and he was getting impatient.

As Lei Jianzi asked, the other Gold Core cultivators were also curious. After all, they were not so idle. If it was simply to introduce Fellow Daoists to each other, it would be somewhat ridiculous.

Without delay, Daoist Mu Bai began to speak, "This matter is related to Yunzhou and also to me. Speaking of the rampant demonic path for so long, Yunzhou has experienced a brilliant period. I have been thinking all the time that if Yunzhou had a Nascent Soul cultivator, these demonic path cultivators would not dare to come so easily."

"No need to say that. With a Nascent Soul cultivator, they wouldn't dare to come," Lei Jianzi laughed and then seemed to think of something unbelievable as he looked at Daoist Mu Bai.

Daoist Mu Bai smiled and said, "Actually, I know that as soon as I mention it, everyone can guess. Yes, I personally want to advance to the Nascent Soul realm."

"What?"

"This..."

The four Gold Core cultivators present all exclaimed in surprise. Lin Qing was surprised because as far as he knew, Daoist Mu Bai had not been in the late stage of the Gold Core realm for long, at most reaching the eighth level of the Gold Core realm. How could he already be thinking about Nascent Soul? The other three were also surprised. Even the Fellow Daoist Hua, who had a close relationship with Daoist Mu Bai, had not expected this. At this moment, she looked at Daoist Mu Bai in astonishment.

"Fellow Daoists, don't think that I am joking with you. I already have a fifty percent certainty about this matter, but I need the assistance of all Fellow Daoists. Let me explain in detail," Daoist Mu Bai said.

Daoist Mu Bai picked up his tea and took a sip before saying, "At the most critical moment of the demonic path's situation, all the forces in Central Yunzhou were oppressed to this area near the border between Upper Yunzhou and Central Yunzhou. I happened to be here at that time, and it was quite a coincidence. I accidentally learned that there is an ancient cultivator's cave in the Dali Realm, which is said to be extremely vast and still unexplored to this day. So I took the opportunity to go there."

"An ancient cultivator's cave? Is it composed of three mountains?" Lin Qing asked in astonishment.

Daoist Mu Bai smiled and looked at Lin Qing, "Yes, that's right. It's this cave. Fellow Daoist, have you been inside? Did you gain any benefits?"

Lin Qing shook her head, "I went in when I was in the Purple Mansion, but I didn't find anything. Hearing what Daoist Long said, could it be that you gained a great benefit?"

"That's right." Daoist Mu Bai's face showed a hint of joy as he said, "This is something even I didn't expect. When I entered, although it had been searched countless times, I coincidentally discovered a jade slip. The jade slip was protected by a powerful restriction. Even though I tried my best to decipher it, I only recently managed to decode its contents and obtained astonishing news."

"Could that jade slip be the key to breaking through the Nascent Soul stage?" Lei Jianzi asked eagerly. If there was a method to break through the Nascent Soul stage, he would be willing to go all out.

Daoist Mu Bai nodded but his expression changed, "It is a method to break through the Nascent Soul stage, but it cannot be considered as such."

"Based on my analysis, that jade slip was left behind by ancient cultivators. According to the method on the jade slip, it is possible to break through the Nascent Soul stage, but this kind of Nascent Soul only has the strength of the early Nascent Soul stage and does not have the lifespan of a Nascent Soul. It can be said to be a pseudo-infant."

"What?" Even San Ku Master couldn't help but exclaim in astonishment.

"No lifespan for the Nascent Soul?" Lei Jianzi was disappointed.

"That's right. This method requires the assistance of another Gold Core and one must endure the torment of Dan Fire Body Tempering. It can be said to be extremely painful. But today, I have gathered all of you here, which means I have made up my mind. It is impossible for me to break through the Nascent Soul stage through my own cultivation. Although my current strength in the late Gold Core stage is extraordinary with the help of many treasures, I am still far from driving out the demonic path. I have decided to use this method to break through the Nascent Soul stage. Although there will be no increase in lifespan, having the strength of the early Nascent Soul stage is enough. The demonic path will have no power to fight back."

"I see." Fellow Daoist Hua nodded thoughtfully.

Lin Qing and the others remained silent, each lost in their own thoughts.

"Daoist Mu Bai, can I take a look at this method?" San Ku Master spoke up.

Daoist Mu Bai smiled, "Master, please be patient. As long as you and the other Fellow Daoists help me successfully break through, I will give each of you a copy of this method. And regardless of success or failure, I will do my best to fulfill one request from each of you, whether it's treasures or techniques, you can make your requests."

"Oh." Lin Qing muttered to himself. To be honest, after hearing about this method, Lin Qing was not willing to use it himself. After all, it only enhanced one's strength without increasing lifespan. It was like an empty shell. But Lin Qing was still very willing to obtain this method because it might be helpful for his future breakthrough to the Nascent Soul stage. Moreover, hearing Daoist Mu Bai say that he could make a request made Lin Qing even more tempted. Although he didn't say it out loud, he had already agreed in his heart to help Daoist Mu Bai.

The thoughts of the three Gold Core cultivators were similar, but some of them might have other concerns.

At this moment, Daoist Mu Bai smiled and became bold, "Fellow Daoists, if we succeed, I can guarantee that I will do my best to deal with the demonic path in Lan Prefecture and subdue the territory that our Yun Prefecture has lost. The territory of our Yun Prefecture has always belonged to us cultivators of Yun Prefecture. It is a delusion for them in Lan Prefecture to occupy it."

After hearing Daoist Mu Bai's words, Lei Jianzi nodded and said, "What Daoist Mu Bai said is true. We must drive out the demonic path in Lan Prefecture. I will help with this favor."

"I am also willing to lend a hand for the sake of Yun Prefecture." San Ku Master said at the same time.

"I will also take action." Fellow Daoist Hua nodded.

"It's a good thing for Daoist Mu Bai to break through for the sake of Yun Prefecture. How could I disagree?" Lin Qing also smiled and said.

"Good, good, good! With the help of you Fellow Daoists, the success rate this time is extremely high. Once I break through, I will definitely crush the demonic path in Lan Prefecture that has occupied our Yun Prefecture!" Daoist Mu Bai laughed heartily.
