Chapter 35 I Want to Go to Shenwen Peak
"Senior Brother Du, I know that your peak has been very busy lately, which is why you value this new divine rune paper with a higher success rate."
"But its production is too low, and it can only be used for battles at the Profound Breaking Realm, which is of little help to the Condensing Yuan Realm. Even if we produce it day and night, it will not have a significant impact on the overall battle situation at Flying Eagle Mountain."
Seeing Du Xuexia frown and about to speak, the middle-aged cultivator with the tall hat pointed to the old blank talisman paper and continued disdainfully.
"Besides, that Wang Yan is only at the Town-level Sea of Consciousness. Even if many disciples use his divine runes, he will at most be promoted to the County-level. Why would you offend Senior Brother Yang for this?"
"Let's wait until Senior Brother Yang passes away in a few years before adjusting the production line! We've built two more pulp tanks at the paper cutting plant, so we can use those for production. For the rest, let's continue using the old divine script!"
Du Xuexia frowned in disapproval: "Sect Master, the succession of new and old divine runes in our sect has never been affected by the lifespan of any one senior brother. Why do you give such preferential treatment to Senior Brother Yang? Besides, disciples at the Profound Breaking Realm are still an important fighting force for our sect in the outside world."
"Alright, you don't need to say anything more!" The sect leader raised his hand unhappily: "You know Senior Brother Yang's temper, why bother provoking him? Just do it this way, let's try to stop that kid from applying for the time being. Grandmaster Qin has already given him quite special treatment, he should know what's good for him."
Du Xuexia was immediately stunned: "Sect Master, Wang Yan has the aptitude of a six-petaled literary flower..."
"Alright!" The sect leader impatiently interrupted Du Xuexia's rebuttal: "This is just an optimization of one process. If he really had time, he should have come up with more divine runes that would be beneficial to combat and cultivation. Even if we changed them, the creator of the old divine runes would still benefit, so there would be nothing to say."
Seeing the sect leader's unyielding expression, Du Xuexia could only sigh helplessly, "Fine, then let's give him a pool to slowly make new cardboard!"
……
On the morning of the second day, after Wang Yan "successfully" wrote five second-order divine characters, he deliberately let the great power of heaven and earth torment him until he was covered in sweat, and then painstakingly "wrote" the divine character "Refine".
That afternoon, Wang Yan received the news from Steward Qiu, and was not disappointed. He continued to condense the new divine script paper for another hour.
Of course, to be precise, it was sharing this hour with Huo Erdan.
On the third day, after "successfully" writing six second-order divine characters, Wang Yan "laboriously" wrote the divine characters "fine" and "defense".
On the afternoon of the fourth day, Wang Yan finally "successfully" wrote the character "融" (rong) that Dan Ding Peak needed.
After taking a short breath, he "tiredly" walked out of the Xi Temple and went to the rest room to find Guo Rongjin.
Upon meeting, Wang Yan bowed and then revealed the three divine characters "融" (Rong), "炼" (Lian), and "细" (Xi) between his eyebrows: "Uncle-Master Guo, your disciple has written the divine characters you requested."
Guo Rongjin took a closer look, and the old man's eyes lit up. He slapped his knee with delight, his wrinkled face beaming with joy: "Good! Well done!"
"It's all thanks to your guidance!" Wang Yan said with a smile, trying to appease him.
After a while of being happy, Guo Rongjin looked at him with satisfaction and said, "I won't beat around the bush with you. Whichever of the inner sect's Dan Ding Peak, Huo Lian Peak, or Ren Yi Peak you want to join, I'll borrow your help to pass on a message for you."
That's too kind of you.
This Deacon Guo is very good at dealing with people.
Wang Yan pondered for a moment, then calmly said, "Uncle-Master Guo, I am very grateful for your previous guidance, but I would like to study more about the combination combat techniques of the character 'Divine'. In addition to my cultivation, I will also cultivate the Fire Refining Peak, the Pill Cauldron Peak, and the Benevolent Healing Peak."
Guo Rongjin was taken aback, then reminded him, still puzzled, "You most want to go to Shenwen Peak? That requires mastering 100 third-tier divine characters and 300 second-tier divine characters, which you're still far from achieving!"
"Although Master Qin gave you a life-saving iron token, there is no master-disciple lineage at Shenwen Peak. They only exchange ideas among those with the character 'Shen' in their names."
"On the contrary, Steward Hu of Danding Peak and Steward Ding of Renyi Peak both think highly of you. If you choose these two peaks, you will definitely be able to find a good master."
Thinking of the pills sent by Hu Jingfa and Renyi Peak, Wang Yan bowed to Guo Rongjin again and said very sincerely, "Uncle Guo, I am very interested in divine script combinations. I am confident that I can write three different types of divine script combinations before reaching the peak of Xuan Dong and rank them in the top five of their respective categories."
"Furthermore, my sea of consciousness is only at a moderate level, so it would be better to focus on spiritual cultivation and pursue other practices once my cultivation level has improved. Please convey my gratitude to the deacons of the three peaks!"
After a moment of surprise, Guo Rongjin felt a pang of regret and a touch of pity: "Do you know that Dan Ding Peak is even more short of people than Huo Lian Peak? Of the more than one hundred third-level spiritual sprouts in our sect who are qualified to enter Ren Yi Peak in terms of age, not one of them can write the two divine characters 'Nai' and 'Rong' at the same time. Even Di Nan couldn't do it."
"Now that you've succeeded, it probably won't be long before Deacon Hu comes looking for you. At that time, will you be able to resist going?"
Can you resist the urge?
If it were the original owner, she probably wouldn't have been able to resist.
Unfortunately, I am not the original owner of this body.
Wang Yan smiled brightly, a hint of cunning in his eyes: "This disciple would rather learn to write more divine characters. Perhaps in the future, I can research divine scripts that can improve the success rate of pill refining. At that time, it won't be too late to learn alchemy."
Guo Rongjin was immediately shocked and widened his eyes. He wanted to say that even Deng Jianghui would find it difficult to improve the success rate of pill formation.
However, seeing the confidence and composure between Wang Yan's brows, Guo Rongjin hesitated before he could offer his advice.
After much deliberation, Guo Rongjin sighed regretfully, "Alright, since you've made up your mind to only go to Shenwen Peak, I won't notify Danding Peak, Huolian Peak, and Renyi Peak for the time being."
"Thank you very much, Uncle Guo!"
……
After lunch, Wang Yan and Huo Erdan were outside the cafeteria when Di Nan, whom they hadn't seen for several days, called out to them.
"Wang Yan, Huo Erdan... Hmm? Wang Yan, you've reached the late stage of the Profound Realm?"
It was rare to see Di Nan so moved; his usually resolute eyes widened in surprise, which made Wang Yan quite happy.
Another peer who's been shocked by their own cultivation speed!
"I was stargazing the other day and somehow entered a strange state. When I woke up, my cultivation had broken through," Wang Yan said innocently. "Perhaps this is my opportunity!"
"You're amazing!" Di Nan quickly smiled with delight. "I knew it! You're lucky! Come on, let's go to my place. Senior Brother Qiao and Lin Yue are waiting for you!"
Wang Yan immediately perked up: "Great!"
Once they used "Swift Light" together, they stepped over the grass and stairs and arrived at the courtyard of the Level 3 Spirit Sprout Wooden House where Di Nan lived.
Jiang Linyue and Qiao Bendu sat facing each other at a bamboo table in the courtyard, with Jiang Linyue frequently looking outside.
Upon seeing them, Jiang Linyue's eyes lit up with joy. She craned her neck and waved loudly at them, "You've come!"
The afternoon sun shone on Jiang Linyue's flawless pink face, her bright eyes carrying a hint of expectant hope, her smile as radiant as a blooming flower.
Even though Wang Yan had seen many beautiful women in his previous life, he couldn't help but be slightly distracted and his heart fluttered at this moment.
A dozen steps away, Qiao Bendu, sitting down, looked helplessly at Jiang Linyue, who was flushed with excitement, and explained to Wang Yan, "She had been clamoring to come and find you for the past few days, but she was called away by her senior uncle from Dan Ding Peak to refine pills, and only had time to come today."
Then, Qiao Bendu suddenly narrowed his eyes and looked at him in astonishment: "You, you've reached the late stage of the Profound Realm?"
