Cultivation is just so scientific!-Chapter 372 - 232 Ancestor Master_2

He saw a flying sword magic artifact, an exceptionally high-quality one. Although it's surprising for a Sword Cultivator at the early-stage Foundation Establishment to possess a flying sword magic artifact, it was another item that caused Ancestor Lu to let out a light gasp.

With a beckon of his hand, Ancestor Lu caused a corpse to fly out from Li Yuanba's storage bracelet.

Li Yuanba was startled. The security of a storage bracelet was much higher than that of a storage bag, yet Ancestor Lu could freely take items out of his storage bracelet, which was truly astonishing.

The body taken by Ancestor Lu was that of the Six-fingered Sound Demon. With this corpse, the presence of the magic treasure in Li Yuanba's storage bracelet could be explained.

It is said that the Six-fingered Sound Demon excelled in zither magic artifacts, but he wouldn't only possess a single magic treasure. It probably wasn't something a single Foundation Establishment Cultivator could achieve alone. After several cultivators explored the Six-fingered Sound Demon's legacy, the allocation of the flying sword artifact and this corpse to Li Yuanba made sense.

"Master, what are you doing?" Elder Jian asked, unaware of why Ancestor Lu had taken out a corpse from Li Yuanba's storage bracelet.

"Haha, this is the corpse of the Six-fingered Sound Demon. Old Demon Li's son was killed by him. He has been on the lookout for the Six-fingered Sound Demon's whereabouts for a long time. This body can be traded with Old Demon Li for something nice!" Ancestor Lu explained while laughing.

As a Nascent Soul of the Demon Sect, he lived unrestrained, doing whatever he wanted. Not to mention his own juniors, even sect cultivators from other sects had their spatial items casually searched by him if the quality was slightly inferior.

"This disciple of yours is not bad, I like him!" Ancestor Lu said with a smile to Elder Jian, then turned his head to Li Yuanba and said, "I'll take the Six-fingered Sound Demon's corpse. Do you have any requests?"

"Since the Ancestor has use for it, I respectfully offer it to you!" Li Yuanba bowed in response.

Being at the early-stage Foundation Establishment, whatever good items Ancestor Lu could give were actually limited, probably just spiritual objects appropriate for the Foundation Establishment period, and he truly wasn't lacking in those. Rather than that, it was better to owe Ancestor Lu a favor.

After all, the corpse of the Six-fingered Sound Demon was of no value to him. He had carried it, thinking it might be useful within the sect.

"How could I take advantage of you? Here is my nameplate. Later, you can go and claim a set of Golden Core resources as my reward to you!" Ancestor Lu said with a suppressed laugh, pressing down his hand.

He tossed a wooden nameplate to Li Yuanba, who hastily caught it. Li Yuanba didn't know what Golden Core resources were, and as he was pondering, he heard Elder Jian's voice.

"Aren't you going to thank the Ancestor quickly?" Elder Jian chided lightly with a slap on Li Yuanba.

"Thank you, Ancestor!" Li Yuanba promptly bowed and thanked.

After Li Yuanba stowed the nameplate, Elder Jian looked at Ancestor Lu with an expression of disbelief on his face.

"Master, this is actually showing too much favoritism. Back in my day, I had to go through numerous life-threatening battles to gain Golden Core resources!" Elder Jian said with a hint of jealousy in his laugh.

He didn't speak these words until after Li Yuanba had stashed away the nameplate, clearly not wanting to influence Li Yuanba's gain.

"Haha, you're really unfit as a master. You underestimate your disciple. He'll reach Mid-stage Foundation Establishment within a year at most, and he has already prepared his flying sword artifact, which shows his determination for Golden Core!" Ancestor Lu said with a smile, revealing Li Yuanba's secrets without any inhibition.

"Yuan Ba's flying sword artifact must have come from Yun Xingyi of the Mingxin Sect. Once he acquired Yun Xingyi's cultivation technique, I knew he must have found Yun Xingyi's corpse. It's fine for Yuan Ba to have some secrets. Let the younger generation keep their little mysteries!" Elder Jian said, shaking his head resignedly.

Elder Jian himself hailed from the Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion. Although not considered a major upright sect, it did not indulge his every whim during his training.

But his own master, having become a Devil Cultivator Nascent Soul, acted all the more capriciously.

Elder Jian did not ask why Ancestor Lu was certain that Li Yuanba could advance to the mid-stage of Foundation Establishment within a year; he guessed it probably had something to do with some spiritual objects in the storage bracelet that could enhance cultivation. He genuinely had no desire to pry into such secrets.

"Just at the early stage of Foundation Establishment, Yun Xingyi of Mingxin Sect is indeed a noteworthy Sword Cultivator, pity that!" Ancestor Lu, having heard of Yun Xingyi, couldn't help shaking his head and sighing. Suddenly, he changed the subject and asked, "You're about to form your Nascent Soul, aren't you planning to go back?"

"The resources for my Nascent Soul formation are not yet fully prepared; at the earliest, it will take another thirty to fifty years before I have a slight assurance of breaking through to the Nascent Soul. Whether to return to the Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion, let's wait until the Nascent Soul is achieved!" Elder Jian hesitated before responding.

"What is there to avoid? I promised you long ago that once you have formed your Nascent Soul, you will have the capability to return to the Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion on your own, as long as you leave behind your legacy. Now that you have chosen a successor and passed on your legacy, everything is up to you. Don't concern yourself with the will of the sect; with me here, I can still shield you from some troubles!" Ancestor Lu waved his hand with a hearty laugh.

Li Yuanba stood to one side, not daring even to breathe too loudly; this was an absolute secret.

The master is truly preparing to leave Senluo Sect, he thought, and then recalled the set of Artifact Refining Techniques and materials Elder Lv had prepared for refining Ten Thousand Sword Peak. It seemed clear that Elder Lv must have known about this, thus making necessary preparations well in advance.

Whether Elder Jian either ascended to Nascent Soul and left, or failed and suffered severe injuries or even perished, Elder Lv would then have the chance to lay his hands on Ten Thousand Sword Peak and refine it into his own powerful magic treasure.

While Ancestor Lu and Elder Jian chatted for a while, Ancestor Lu motioned for Li Yuanba to come over.

"Ancestor!" Li Yuanba approached Ancestor Lu and bowed respectfully.

"Don't be as rigid as your Master. Not all Sword Cultivators have to use flying swords exclusively; only the Sword Cultivators who can preserve their lives are good Sword Cultivators!" Ancestor Lu, noticing that Elder Jian seemed ready to object, glared and said, "Tell me, how many life-and-death crises have you faced? Just one misstep could have been catastrophic, if you had more defensive methods, none such occurrences would happen!"

"Sword Cultivators need tempering, otherwise how can they elevate their Sword Intent!" Elder Jian sincerely did not want his master to misguide his own disciple, thus he still spoke out in opposition.

Though Ancestor Lu was a Nascent Soul, he was not a Sword Cultivator; Elder Jian had more authority in this matter.

Besides, the Chongxiao Pavilion had produced Ascendant cultivators and possessed more experience in the cultivation of Sword Cultivators than the Senluo Sect.

"Forget it, you're making me angry just by being here!" Ancestor Lu waved his hand and winked at Li Yuanba as if telling him he was aware of his little secret but chose not to tell Elder Jian.

Li Yuanba of course understood what Ancestor Lu meant since Jiang Chen was by his side, how could he possibly escape Ancestor Lu's perception.

"Then get the resources for your Golden Core formation soon. I remember we have recently acquired a new batch of Spirit Pill resources. If you miss this opportunity, it may be a long time before another comes!" Upon leaving Three Saints Peak, Elder Jian urged Li Yuanba.

"Master, are the Golden Core resources the ones needed for advancing to Golden Core? Is it not too early for me to collect them now?" Li Yuanba asked, somewhat puzzled.

"You've been in the sect for too short a time. The resources for Golden Core formation include a complete set of Spirit Medicine Techniques and Secret Techniques, all accumulated by previous generations and customized according to the actual situation of the sect to provide the optimal plan for forming a Golden Core. Your Ancestor really favors you; he's given you a set of Golden Core resources right from the start, not giving you a chance to work hard. Whether that's good or bad, I'm not sure!" Elder Jian said thoughtfully.

In reality, Ancestor Lu did not want to owe Li Yuanba any favors; moreover, the effects of the Six-fingered Sound Demon's corpse in his hands couldn't be compared to that of a set of Golden Core resources.

What mattered most was that although Li Yuanba's storage bracelet did not contain many items, Ancestor Lu could tell that even if other spiritual objects were given as a reward, Li Yuanba would likely not hold them in high regard.

When it comes to magic treasures, a Sword Cultivator uses flying swords for life. Now that Li Yuanba was wielding a Spiritual Weapon Flying Sword, and he had even prepared a flying sword treasure, it wasn't possible for Ancestor Lu to reward something like another Spiritual Artifact. Ancestor Lu couldn't afford to lose face like that.

Regarding cultivation resources, once Ancestor Lu discovered a large bottle of top-grade Spirit Pills, he also lost the interest in providing more cultivation resources.
