Cultivation System: Stronger with Age Chapter 61 - 51: Terrifying Talent, A Day to Construct the Thunder Root_2

After thinking for a bit, Lin Xuankong asked, "Steward Gu, how long did it take you to cultivate your second Divine Thunder Root?"

Gu Beicheng replied, "The second Divine Thunder Root? It took about five months!"

Hearing this, Lin Xuankong fell silent.

Standing by, Gu Beicheng saw his silence and couldn’t help but feel a bit concerned.

He stroked his three long beards, smiled, and said, "Senior Brother Lin, you don’t need to care about others’ opinions, nor should you compare yourself to others! Even though you are older and your cultivation speed may be slower, you have an extraordinary Four-Seal Talent. So what if you cultivate the Divine Thunder Root slower than others in the future? You have the chance to cultivate eight or nine roots! In a few years, you could have Eight Thunders Surrounding your body or even Nine Thunders Surrounding Body. So, there’s no need to be anxious, Senior Brother!"

Hearing this, Lin Xuankong couldn’t help but laugh. "Rest assured, I’m not anxious."

Gu Beicheng was skeptical and looked at him several times. "Really not anxious? If you are uncomfortable, Senior Brother, just tell me!"

Lin Xuankong nodded. "Really not anxious!"

Gu Beicheng frowned. "It’s good if you’re truly not anxious!"

Seeing Lin Xuankong showed no sign of distress, Gu Beicheng finally felt at ease. He pointed to the upper left corner of the first jade piece and said, "Senior Brother Lin, actually, visualizing the jade isn’t too difficult. These marks do follow a pattern. You just need to focus your sight here and follow these marks to start visualizing... But remember, do not exceed the time of three cups of tea!"

After listening to his explanation, Lin Xuankong nodded secretly.

After Gu Beicheng stopped his explanation, he looked at Lin Xuankong with some puzzlement. "Senior Brother Lin, I saw you were dizzy just now; you must have almost exceeded the time of three cups of tea! Did Steward Xu, as the Transmission Steward, not remind you that visualizing the jade should not exceed the time of three cups of tea? The jade contains the mysterious Thunder Power of our ancestor. Exceeding the time of three cups of tea when visualizing it could severely damage your Heart Spirit. Heart Spirit injuries are harder to heal than external injuries. Even a small mistake could render you unable to cultivate the Yin Talisman Technique for months. You must be cautious in the future!"

Hearing this, Lin Xuankong recalled Xu Bei’s attitude at that time. His face darkened slightly, and he thought to himself,

Seeing Lin Xuankong remain silent, Gu Beicheng considered it for a moment and couldn’t help but stroke his three long beards again. "Senior Brother Lin, I will report this matter to Grand Chief Steward Wu Liangye. Steward Xu’s behavior is a dereliction of duty!"

Lin Xuankong thought for a moment and firmly shook his head. "No need, Steward Gu. You will be working under Xu Bei in the future. Why make an enemy of him for my sake? Since you have reminded me, I’ll be more careful next time when visualizing the jade. By the way, did you come here for something else, Steward Gu?"

Seeing his determination, Gu Beicheng sighed deeply. "If the Sect had more magnanimous figures like Steward Ma Jiang and Steward Lin, how could we not thrive? But alas... Sigh, apart from matters of cultivation, I came to find you for another important matter today. The Demon-Suppressing Valley, located on the outskirts of the Boundaryless Mountain and controlled by the Profound Phoenix Celestial Sect, will open in two months. This will require disciples from various cities and sects to participate in the Demon Slaying Conference. Our Yin Talisman Sect has selected its participating disciples, and Senior Brother, you are among them!"

Lin Xuankong was slightly puzzled. "Profound Phoenix Celestial Sect? Demon Slaying Conference?"

Gu Beicheng explained, "It seems Senior Brother has been so focused on cultivation that you are unaware of the sect powers in the Great Xia Dynasty! The Profound Phoenix Celestial Sect is the National Guardian Divine Sect of the Great Xia Dynasty. Though the Sect consists entirely of women, in terms of the number of top Martial Artists and the profoundness of their techniques, it surpasses countless sects in Great Xia! The Demon-Suppressing Valley in the Great Marsh Prefecture is managed by Elder Hua of the Celestial Sect. It features a Grand Array spanning hundreds of miles. The demons confined within, even in high numbers, cannot escape and can only advance up to Tier Three."
