Chapter 171: Chapter 90 Immortal Strokes My Head 1

The three treasures held within Gong Buyu’s storage ring were all documented within the Heavenly Natural Treasures Catalog on the Taoist Forum, which Shen Yuan had perused before.

The Divine Yuan Lingzhi is a prestigious Class 6 natural and heavenly treasure. It’s a key ingredient in the crafting of the legendary Yang God Pill and is a rare spirit object in the world that nourishes the Primordial Spirit.

Compared to the Divine Yuan Lingzhi, the Ice-Condensed Fruit that Shen Yuan previously acquired seemed like wild fruit picked up from the roadside.

Given that the wave of Spirit Energy still hasn’t fully revived in the current era, there’s virtually no chance for a Divine Yuan Lingzhi to be born. This Lingzhi must have persisted since the last wave of spirit energy, reflecting its extraordinary value.

If given to a cultivator at the peak of Qi Training Stage along with the use of a secret technique, it’s very likely to foster a Primordial Spirit, which, once the limitations of the heavens and earth are lifted, would permit a promotion to the Divinity Transformation Realm.

For Shen Yuan, the value of Divine Yuan Lingzhi is even more precious.

The Lingzhi can not only remove the lingering remnants of the Great Sun’s True Flames on Shen Yuan’s false Primordial Spirit, but also, considering his false Primordial Spirit is already on the edge of advancement, it can allow Shen Yuan to further progress and attain a true Primordial Spirit.

At that point, Shen Yuan would not only be able to control the Primordial Spirit Sword Control Method again but also would be able to display even greater power without the help of a false Primordial Spirit.

Even when facing Gong Buyu, who is at the peak of Qi training, in the real world, Shen Yuan would confidently suppress her effortlessly.

Shen Yuan might even seize this opportunity to incorporate Zhuming Chengye into the union of the sword and Elemental Qi, making even the formidable practitioners of spirit transmutation easy to defeat.

As for the second item, the Ten Thousand Years Xuan Yin Wood, Shen Yuan had also encountered it in related records; a supreme treasure for cultivators who turn to the Ghost Path.

When a cultivator dies, if their spirit resides within it, the Xuan Yin Wood allows part of their cultivation from life to be retained. It can even be utilized by the Void Refining True Monarch.

This sort of treasure would definitely rank as a precious asset in a sect, with a value even exceeding that of the Divine Yuan Lingzhi.

As for the final item, the “Insight into the Doctrine of Pot’s Heaven”, upon seeing this book, Shen Yuan could confirm his previous speculation.

The book may seem ordinary in name, however, as a comprehension of Earthly Destroyer Divine Power, symbolizing the Earthly Destroyer Divine Power itself, the book is unattainable for outsiders.

The only way Gong Buhuo could have obtained “Insight into the Doctrine of Pot’s Heaven” was via the previous Sect Master of Falling Clouds Sect.

As an Almighty Earth Immortal, the previous Sect Master could deny Gong Buhuo the book, even at the cost of his life.

Thus, the truth is most likely that the “Insight into the Doctrine of Pot’s Heaven” was purposely left to Gong Buhuo by the previous Sect Master.

After the previous Sect Master failed in leading the sect to immortality and died, the Pot’s Heaven Divine Power returned to its ownerless state. Gong Buhuo, through comprehending the “Insight into the Doctrine of Pot’s Heaven”, could have obtained the Pot’s Heaven Divine Power.

The previous Sect Master having such thoughts indicates that he genuinely viewed Gong Buhuo as the last seed of Falling Clouds Sect.

However, for some reason, Gong Buhuo either chose not to comprehend or didn’t understand the mysteries therein and preserved the treasured book for tens of thousands of years.

Shen Yuan, upon obtaining this precious book, can fully draw on the insights of the previous Almighty Earth Immortal Sect Master to further his understanding of Pot’s Heaven Divine Power.

The three tutor gifts in this Storage Ring are absolutely priceless treasures for Shen Yuan.

Shen Yuan didn’t expect that the tutor gifts he received from the system were actually given by Gong Buyu, and were such precious treasures at that.

To obtain these three treasures, even if there’s some risk in accepting Gong Buyu, it’s absolutely worth it.

“It’s commendable for an old monster who survived tens of thousands of years in non-crippled state, unlike Yunmeng Dragon Monarch and Old Monster Kuang..

The treasures given as tutor gifts are truly astounding, adequately reflecting the depth and resources of his private grotto heaven.”

Forcibly shifting his gaze from the storage ring, Shen Yuan looked at Gong Buyu, who was kneeling in front of him.

The cold temperament and seemingly uncaring gaze of the young girl seemed to bear some hint of familiarity and reverence towards Shen Yuan.

Shen Yuan felt a trace of curiosity in his heart and slowly began speaking:

“You seem quite familiar with me?”

Gong Buyu earnestly said, “From a young age, I was familiarized with tales of the Supreme Taoist as told by my father.”

A hint of surprise flickered in Shen Yuan’s eyes, instigating an urge to inquire about the tales of the Supreme Taoist.

However, doing so would inevitably arouse Gong Buyu’s suspicion, hence Shen Yuan suppressed his impulse.

Continuing her story, Gong Buyu said,

“Father always told me that everything he has is all thanks to the Sect Master, although he committed a grave offense that led to him being expelled from the sect.

What he can do is cultivate me to enter the sect and repay the master’s kindness.

Father holds the Taoist in high esteem, and every detail he talked about concerning the master was relevant to the Taoist. He hoped I could become a significant person like the Taoist and make the sect proud.

But the Sect Master has secluded himself from the world, and father could not trace his whereabouts, thus he had to enclose me within the ancient profound ice, waiting for the master to reappear.”

The room silenced, Shen Yuan’s previously excited mood, prompted by the gifts, faded somewhat.

He never expected that the seemingly cold young girl in front of him had such experiences.

Encased in ice for thousands of years, all for Gong Buhuo to repay the immense kindness of the Falling Clouds Sect.

This may be because of Gong Buhuo’s persistent obsession with the Falling Clouds Sect. However, for Gong Buyu, her whole life is under the control of others, without any freedom.

The delicate girl in front of him seemed like a puppet submerged in ice, manipulated by others, stiff and cold.

With a slight frown, Shen Yuan asked the girl,

“What’s your own idea then?”

Gong Buyu gently shook her head: “Buyu can only follow Father’s arrangements, she doesn’t have her own idea.”

“You can have one.” The weight of Shen Yuan’s words increased substantially.

The delicate girl’s eyes flickered lightly as she earnestly responded, “Buyu also wishes to become a disciple in Taoist’s sect.”

Shen Yuan felt a surge of surprise: “Why is that?”

“Father has been very kind to Buyu. Buyu doesn’t wish to go against Father’s will.

Furthermore, Buyu grew up hearing tales of the Taoist, albeit unable to experience those legends alongside him, but aspires to become a powerful figure like the Taoist who dominates an era.”

The words of Gong Buyu carried a tinge of innocence, which seemed out of sync with her outside age, but her sentiments held no falseness.

Shen Yuan remained silent.

“Perhaps I cannot teach you anything.”

Gong Buyu shook her head: “You are the Supreme Taoist, being accepted as your disciple is already Buyu’s fortune. Buyu dares not to demand too much.”

Looking at Gong Buyu, Shen Yuan sighed deeply and said,

“So be it, I will temporarily accept you as a disciple in name.”

Finally, a hint of smile appeared on Gong Buyu’s icy-cold face. She prepared to bow and pay respect to Shen Yuan formally.

But before she could move, an invisible force enveloped Gong Buyu and gently lifted her up.

“Those tedious formalities can be spared, I do not like them.”

Gong Buyu seriously nodded, as if to engrave his words in her heart.

Then, Gong Buyu walked in front of Shen Yuan, and respectfully gave Shen Yuan her storage ring.

“Master, this is the initiation gift.”

Shen Yuan took the storage ring from Gong Buyu’s hand, and her white jade-like palm transferred a bone-chilling coldness merely on contact.

The encapsulation by the ancient profound ice for tens of thousands of years seemed to completely integrate this chill into her body.

Looking at the young girl with a hint of compassion, Shen Yuan sighed and said,

“You have an extraordinary background. Your master doesn’t really have anything good to give to you, so I can only use this Sainthood Attainment Enlightenment Array Formation to initiate your spiritual enlightenment.”

Gong Buyu didn’t understand but the next moment, she saw Shen Yuan lightly tap the stone table with his finger.

“Darkness!”

What was originally a bright day, at the whisper of Shen Yuan, instantly turned into the night, as the sun became extinguished and the heavens shifted. The rule of change between day and night was fully displayed within this small Courtyard Secret Realm.

Gong Buyu’s eyes were fixed on the sky. She saw between heaven and earth, countless stars that gathered at the array formation nodes turned into a gigantic Bodhi tree piercing through heaven and earth.

This Bodhi tree stretched its branches, and countless stars trembled at this moment. Countless starlights fell, bathing her within.

Being frozen in ancient profound ice for tens of thousands of years, not only did it deplete Gong Buyu’s weak lifespan, even her spiritual wisdom became dulled over the long period of time.

No one in Rongcheng’s Fine Jade Grotto Heavens noticed this.

The disciples of Mount Laojun believed that Gong Buyu was ice-cold and didn’t like to interact with outsiders.

The True Beings and True Monarchs believed that Gong Buyu had extraordinary talents and that her weird character was not worth mentioning.

Even Gong Buhuo only thought that his daughter was still in her childhood and everything would be fine as she grew older.

They all overlooked that Gong Buyu was only nine years old when she was frozen. She was only at the Peak of Essence Refining Stage and hadn’t even reached the stage of Qi Transformation.

The damage caused by the ancient profound ice was far more severe than it appeared.

However, Shen Yuan noticed the abnormalities on Gong Buyu from the very beginning, but even the Sainthood Attainment Enlightenment Array Formation couldn’t affect Gong Buyu.

The talent brought by ancient profound ice allowed Gong Buyu to easily reach The Peak of Qi Refining. However, when it comes to comprehending the Dao at higher realms, her dulled spiritual wisdom could hinder her progress.

Only Shen Yuan, who controlled the Sainthood Attainment Enlightenment Array Formation, could detect the clues.

Shen Yuan couldn’t teach Gong Buyu divine arts, and could only initiate her spiritual enlightenment with the Sainthood Attainment Enlightenment Array Formation.

The congregated stars almost became a substantial brilliance. Bathing within the stars, Gong Buyu felt as if she saw the array formation’s Starry Bodhi Tree, starting to take a real, green tinge, as if it transformed into a real plant.

Under the Bodhi tree, a banished immortal slowly stood up and walked in front of her.

Warm hands lightly stroked her head, all illusions vanished, and wisdom emerged instinctively.

The things Gong Buyu couldn’t understand and feel returned to her. It seemed like only at this moment that she felt the world outside of being frozen.

Gong Buyu stared blankly at the banished immortal, who was stroking her head in front of her. A sentence suddenly flashed across her mind.

“An immortal caresses my head, my hair is tied, accepting longevity..”
