Chapter 952: Qin Shenwu Gifting Treasures, Heading to Thunderclap Valley

Editor: Henyee Translations

Upon hearing Jiang Chengxuan’s words, even Qin Shenwu, a figure renowned for his unwavering resolve, couldn’t help but sharply focus his gaze

It was astonishing, after all, that Jiang Chengxuan, who had not long ago entered the realm of Dao Fusion, was now on the cusp of breaking through to Dao Mastery.

Qin Shenwu knew his disciple’s character better than anyone; Chengxuan must possess a certain confidence in his breakthrough, and the chances of success were likely not slim.

This realization surprised him, for while his disciple had always been remarkable, this development was particularly startling.

After a brief moment of astonishment, Qin Shenwu spoke again,

“If you are confident, why not. The Haoran Sect is flourishing more with each pa.s.sing day, so you need not worry about sect affairs.”

He offered Jiang Chengxuan rea.s.surance, advising him not to be distracted by the responsibilities towards the sect.

“However, could you allow me to a.s.sess your current state, just to be sure?”

Qin Shenwu continued, feeling a sense of duty towards his disciple.

The relationship between a Shifu and a disciple in the path of cultivation often transcends that of mere guides and protectors; it’s a bond stronger and more intimate than that of blood.

“Okay.”

Jiang Chengxuan responded without hesitation, readily agreeing to the request.

Perhaps his visit wasn’t initially for this purpose, and he was quite confident in his breakthrough, but the opportunity to have his progress checked by a Mahayana Daolord, his own Shifu, was not something to refuse.

The two rose from their seats in the grand hall and stepped outside, making their way to the summit outside the Xuanwu Peak.

In just a few steps, Jiang Chengxuan had adjusted his breathing, reaching an optimal state.

At the cliff outside the peak, amidst swirling clouds and a faint glow of dawn, Jiang Chengxuan nodded slightly to Qin Shenwu and then invoked his full power, his aura climbing terrifyingly.

Soon after, his mastery over the Dao Fusion was soon apparent, as the rules of the Five Elements unfolded, with the rule of Samsara manifesting alongside them.

The world of the Five Elements Cycle materialized atop the Xuanwu Peak, its rules intertwining perfectly with Jiang Chengxuan, a clear sign of complete Dao Fusion, nearly mastering the Dao of the Five Elements and Samsara.

This scene took Qin Shenwu aback.

He had thought Jiang Chengxuan’s decision to break through was based on obtaining some treasure or sudden enlightenment, but he hadn’t expected his disciple to have already reached the peak of Dao Fusion.

In merely a century, to step into the realm of Dao Fusion required not just extraordinary talent but also significant opportunities.

“Alright, Chengxuan, you are even more remarkable than I had imagined. It seems you are set on this path of seclusion for breakthrough,” Qin Shenwu said with a broad smile, recognizing that his disciple’s future achievements would be formidable.

The Haoran Sect’s second Mahayana Daolord was almost a certainty.

Jiang Chengxuan’s natural talent was undeniable, and coupled with the fate that cultivators believe in, he was indeed a favored son of the heavens.

Even he himself found it hard to compare.

However, Qin Shenwu would naturally not pry into his disciple’s secrets; in the world of cultivation, such knowledge could spell disaster for the inquisitive. Respecting each other’s silence is a form of mutual respect.

“Shifu, you flatter me. It is all thanks to your excellent guidance and constant nurturing that I have achieved so much so quickly…” Jiang Chengxuan said modestly, in turn praising Qin Shenwu, who couldn’t help but chuckle at the gesture.

“Enough of that,” Qin Shenwu laughed, “I believe you already have a great chance of breaking through. But as your Shifu, I still have duties to fulfill.”

As Qin Shenwu’s words fell, he retrieved a grey treasure box from his storage treasure.

Inside the box lay a pitch-black lotus, radiating an enigmatic aura as if it were a relic from beyond the heavens.

Handing the treasure box to Jiang Chengxuan, Qin Shenwu slowly explained,

“This is a Daoless Black Lotus that grew in the realms beyond ours. It might aid in your breakthrough to Dao Mastery. Take it and use it well.”

Upon seeing the Daoless Black Lotus within the box, Jiang Chengxuan was momentarily taken aback.

Even though Qin Shenwu spoke casually, Chengxuan was well aware of the rarity of such a treasure.

Clearly, it was an object from beyond their realm, marked by distinct extraterrestrial energy.

Its origin in the outer realm signified one thing: only a Mahayana Daolord could obtain such treasures.

For anyone other than a Mahayana Daolord, venturing into the outer realms was tantamount to seeking death.

Such treasures that caught the eye of a Mahayana Daolord were undoubtedly valuable, not only for their rarity but also for their efficacy.

The fact that it could a.s.sist in breaking through to Dao Mastery made it as precious as the Enlightenment Pills bestowed by the system.

Jiang Chengxuan looked at his Shifu, Qin Shenwu, and without saying much, accepted the treasure box.

Between them, words were unnecessary; their deep Shifu-disciple relationship said it all.

“Alright, there are others you probably wish to see. You should go now,” Qin Shenwu said, concluding their meeting without further ado.

Waving his hand, he then returned to the grand hall alone.

Jiang Chengxuan felt a warmth in his heart. On the arduous path of cultivation, the bond with a Shifu like Qin Shenwu was invaluable.

The person he intended to see next was, undoubtedly, his Dao companion, Shen Ruyan.

Their relationship had deepened through mutual support, especially since their arrival in the Floodgate Realm in search of the Dao.

He was confident Shen Ruyan must be thinking of him often too.

Before his next period of seclusion, Shen Ruyan was his primary concern.

With this thought, Jiang Chengxuan no longer hesitated. Stirring a gentle breeze, he transformed into a streak of light and flew off, heading directly for Thunderclap Valley.

Soon, Jiang Chengxuan arrived at the boundary of Thunderclap Valley, slowing down to stop before the sect’s entrance.

The news of his arrival spread quickly within Thunderclap Valley, and soon, a familiar elder from the valley greeted him with a warm smile.

After exchanging pleasantries, Jiang Chengxuan made his intentions clear—he was there to see Shen Ruyan.

The elder from Thunderclap Valley, naturally, was forthcoming and informed Jiang Chengxuan of Shen Ruyan’s recent circ.u.mstances.

After their brief conversation, Jiang Chengxuan wasted no time heading towards the mountain peak where Shen Ruyan resided.

According to the elder, Shen Ruyan had also just ended her seclusion and was currently residing within Thunderclap Valley.

Jiang Chengxuan felt it must be fate waiting for his arrival since they had entered seclusion around the same time.

Their emergence should also be closely aligned.
