Chapter 498: Chapter 490: Zhang Banzui Goes Missing
Her confidence grew weaker and weaker.
“Heh, even invoking the blessings of ancestors. Never give up until the very last moment, and never look down on yourself,” Qin Niu looked into her eyes and asked seriously, “Do you believe in me?”
“Of course, I trust you!”
She nodded in affirmation.
“Then let me tell you, as long as you stay resolute in your belief, your future cultivation level will definitely not be lower than ours. In fact, it’s even possible that you could become the strongest among us.”
Qin Niu said this very seriously.
“I also think Sister Wan Yan has a great talent for cultivation. Could it be that the Dragon Elephant Skill is not suitable for Sister Wan Yan to cultivate?”
Xiao Qing strongly agreed with Qin Niu’s opinion.
After Wang Wanyan started cultivating the Dragon Elephant Art, she was quickly surpassed by Tang Cai Xian.
“It’s fine, keep cultivating for some time and see. Wan Yan’s temperament is rather steady, and she likes to cultivate in a slow and steady manner. Sometimes, people’s different temperaments can lead to vast differences even when cultivating the same technique. Cai Xian’s current rapid improvement in cultivation might outpace yours, but after reaching a high level, you might have a chance for a breakthrough, potentially surpassing her. Maintaining your current style of cultivation is good.
To build a nine-story platform, start by piling up the earth.
Having a solid foundation will enable you to go higher and farther in the future.”
Qin Niu believed it was fine for his two wives to practice the Dragon Elephant Art.
It was good for Wang Wanyan to strengthen her foundation.
“Ah… Does my rapid increase in cultivation power mean that my foundation isn’t solid?” Tang Cai Xian got anxious upon hearing this.
“It’s not necessarily that simple. Your fast advancement in the Dragon Elephant Art in cultivation is because the path you’ve found highly matches you. It can also be seen as having a natural talent for the Dragon Elephant Art. However, I believe everything has its pros and cons. The rapid increase in your early stage might impact you later on.
If it continues at this pace, it’d be defying the heavens.
Of course, this is just my personal shallow understanding of cultivation. You can seek advice from your master next time you have the chance to meet her.”
Qin Niu was certain that Tang Cai Xian’s master was very likely an Immortal Master.
She knew much more.
“Let’s go, I’ll take you out!”
Qin Niu noticed the branches of the Ancient Banyan Tree had descended to only about three meters above the ground.
But now his cultivation power was strong, and he could effectively resist the chilling energy descending from the Ancient Banyan Tree. Moreover, his Alchemy Stove could absorb the chilly energy that invaded his body, transforming it to strengthen his cultivation of the Medicine King Sutra.
After sending his wives and Xiao Qing out, Qin Niu wanted to test how long he could withstand the Ancient Banyan Tree’s assault.
“You all go back first! If I don’t return by tonight, don’t worry about me,” he said.
“My lord, the Ancient Banyan Tree is very dangerous. Even if you want to quickly improve your cultivation, you don’t need to risk your life for it. Even if we don’t obtain the Immortal Fate this time, we can wait for the next decennial,” Wang Wanyan, as his principal wife, often had the power to advise her husband.
However, she generally wouldn’t stop Qin Niu unless it involved something potentially life-threatening, which was when she would argue against it.
“I know my limits. We grew up together, and I’ve been afraid of death since childhood. You are aware of that. Go back, don’t worry about me,” he reassured.
After sending his wives away, Qin Niu once again entered the Ancient Banyan Tree Maze.
As soon as he entered, the chilly energy that fell from above penetrated his body through every pore.
However, the Ancient Banyan Tree actually recognized him, parting its branches automatically to form a ‘gap’ just above his head, displaying its friendship toward Qin Niu with a unique gentleness.
“It’s fine, I can now bear your chilly energy,” he declared.
Qin Niu sat down cross-legged, actively allowing the chilly energy to invade his body faster.
The Alchemy Stove within his Dantian absorbed the invading chilly energy rapidly, refining it swiftly.
These energies hardly caused any damage to Qin Niu.
…
Overnight, Qin Niu’s cultivation of the Medicine King Sutra had improved significantly.
With the current speed of cultivation, he even felt confident he could reach the later stages of the Spirit Qi Realm before the Water and Land Dharma Assembly.
Looking up at the slowly retracting branches and leaves, it signified that Qin Niu now had the ability to stay within the Ancient Banyan Tree Maze indefinitely, no longer needing to worry about being killed by it.
Because its chilly energy attacks could no longer harm Qin Niu.
