Chapter 12 Even geniuses have their troubles!
Chapter 12 Even geniuses have their troubles!
For three consecutive days, the news that Su Buxing of Xiaonong Peak in the Fengling Sect had made a name for himself, having remained silent until now, had spread far and wide.
In an instant, it jumped from the first floor to the sixth floor, and then jumped again to the seventh floor.
Good guy.
They are clearly from a sect of immortal cultivators, but in the eyes of ordinary people, they are immortals.
As a result, everyone in the sect listened as if they were hearing a myth.
If I hadn't seen the words "Su Buxing of Xiaonong Peak, Qi Refining Level 7" written on the Azure Lotus Ranking, I wouldn't have believed it no matter what.
Cultivating immortality is incredibly difficult!
Looking at the first, second, and third levels of Qi Refining, it sounds easy, but many people just can't break through to the next level.
Within the mortal market of the Fengling Sect, countless individuals who failed the assessment are now stuck on the first level, their lives ending in old age.
As a result, this person, who hadn't uttered a word and had been called "all show and no substance" by others for three months, was suddenly promoted to the seventh level.
Especially since this person is a physical cultivator, and his physical training was honed through farming.
Everyone sighed in dismay.
However, quite a few people said they bought hoes.
After all, there are countless paths to immortality; if others have chosen one, it doesn't mean you can't.
"Senior brother, they say that Senior Brother Sima Ji from that day hasn't stopped clearing the wasteland these past few days. Today he met a disciple from Thousand Bamboo Peak and asked me about the way you were hoeing the ground... I think he was asking on behalf of that Senior Brother Sima."
A man and a woman were in a farmhouse courtyard atop Xiaonongfeng Mountain.
Zhi Luyao gathered her clothes, rolled up her sleeves, and grabbed one end of the freshly washed bed sheet.
Su Buxing, on the other hand, was holding onto the other end.
The two exert force in opposite directions.
Water gushed out of the sheets.
They then worked together to put it on the clothes rack.
In reality, this is unnecessary; a little magic would suffice.
But Lu Yao heard his senior brother say that what he wanted was not the result, but the process.
Although Zhi Luyao roughly understood his senior brother's meaning, after what happened three days ago, he did whatever Su Buxing said.
Anyway, my senior brother is always right!
Su Buxing looked at Zhi Luyao, pursed her lips, and said, "How should I put it, it's quite awkward."
Although he hadn't left Xiaonongfeng these past few days, Zhi Luyao or Changren would tell him about many things happening outside.
To be honest, I feel quite guilty.
Especially when I heard that my senior brother Sima Ji was also learning along with him, although I wondered why he was learning along with him, he was a good person, but he was completely fooled.
oops...
As Su Buxing reached out to pull at the bed sheet that Zhi Luyao had placed there, he couldn't help but look at Zhi Luyao and ask, "Junior Sister, I think our Fengling Sect is doomed..."
Zhi Luyao, who was tidying up the bed sheets on the clothes rack, looked at Su Buxing in confusion: "Why...why do you say that..."
But my heart skipped a beat.
Because Lu Yao's first thought was that his senior brother knew about the catastrophe.
Su Buxing said, "For a power, especially a power as large as the Fengling Sect, what do you think is the most important?"
Zhi Luyao was puzzled for a moment, but thought to himself that if his senior brother really knew, should he tell his senior brother everything, including his past life?
But when he heard Su Buxing ask that question, he subconsciously shook his head.
"A talent!" Su Buxing picked up the washed pillowcase from the basin and spoke seriously.
He then added meaningfully, "But the Wind Spirit Sect doesn't seem to respect talent. If it doesn't collapse, who will?"
Zhi Luyao breathed a sigh of relief, but looking at Su Buxing, he wondered why his senior brother said that.
Su Buxing looked at Zhi Luyao: "I've been a genius for three days now, and why haven't any of those elders tried to recruit me to their peak with anything good? Spirit stones, pills, and stuff like that—my senior brother hasn't seen much of the world, so I happily accepted whatever he brought, but not a single person came!"
As they were talking, Big Flower waddled along in the yard, followed by a line of little piglets.
However, Dang Kang, whom Su Buxing named Xiao Hua'er, was not among them. It was lying on Su Buxing's recliner, whimpering and rubbing its belly.
It's caused by overeating and indigestion.
Zhi Luyao looked at his senior brother, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Senior brother, didn't you say before that after you became a genius, your quiet life would be disturbed and that it was annoying?"
Su Buxing shook his head: "But now that I'm a genius, being disturbed is unavoidable. But look, no one's bothering me. I've been waiting for three days!"
Zhi Luyao pursed his lips, unsure of what to say. But seeing his senior brother's furrowed brows and angry expression, he found him rather endearing. It was truly unexpected that this man would one day become the ruthless and decisive Abbot of Baiyujing Temple.
Su Buxing muttered to himself, "So many people were fighting over you back then, and these people are treating you differently!"
When he's not being a genius, Su Buxing is annoyed and afraid of being treated as one.
Being a genius is even more frustrating, because you don't get the treatment that comes with it.
Zhi Luyao smiled.
But he was just about to speak.
Seeing Su Buxing tidying his clothes, he couldn't help but ask, "Senior Brother, are you going out?"
Su Buxing nodded: "Didn't I ask you about spiritual energy consumption before?"
Zhi Luyao nodded: "Alchemy?"
Su Buxing nodded again: "I originally thought the sect elders would come to see me with gifts, and I was afraid I wouldn't get to see them, so I stayed here without leaving the sect. But I can't wait any longer. I'm thinking of going to Danfeng to take a look. Didn't they say you can learn alchemy for free?"
Zhi Luyao immediately started tidying his clothes, clearly intending to follow along.
Upon seeing this, Su Buxing immediately said seriously, "Junior Sister, you have to stay!"
Zhi Luyao raised his eyes.
Su Buxing explained, "What if they come? If you stay, they won't be completely lost. And if they bring something and want to dig me to another peak, just leave the thing behind and say that you'll have to wait for me to come back for the rest."
Knowing that Lu Yao still wanted to argue, but seeing Su Buxing's determined eyes, she sighed and nodded: "Okay."
Su Buxing chuckled softly, then looked at Zhi Luyao: "Junior Sister, could I borrow your... cough cough, your immortal raft?"
Knowing that Lu Yao naturally just took it out and tossed it to Su Buxing.
I'm used to riding in this Maybach.
Su Buxing really wasn't used to his little tractor anymore.
……
Above the clouds, Su Buxing stood on the celestial raft, like a lone swordsman traveling on a solitary boat in a sea of clouds.
Su Buxing felt incredibly handsome.
Su Buxing decided to learn alchemy three days ago.
The main reason was what happened at Yunlu Peak three days ago, which actually frightened him.
The sudden breakthrough was something he couldn't control.
Fortunately, I didn't go directly to the Great Perfection of Qi Refining.
After all, Su Buxing knew very well that the spiritual power he had condensed could indeed directly reach the Great Perfection of Qi Refining.
Otherwise, he would be really afraid that a bunch of people would be watching him.
Reaching the seventh floor is impressive, but not to an extreme degree, let alone having Zhang Yang and the other two singing in unison to give him a perfect excuse.
But if you go straight to the Great Perfection of Qi Refining, you might get arrested and used for research.
So even though you're a genius now, you should hold back a bit.
Be a low-key genius!
So to avoid such a thing from happening, Su Buxing came up with a solution: he deliberately controlled the spiritual energy in his acupoints and meridians, preventing them from being filled as full as before.
Su Buxing planned to use the surplus energy for alchemy, weapon crafting, and talisman drawing.
Is that so?
Even if that notification came suddenly again, Su Buxing was able to control it in time.
Great idea!
When Su Buxing thought of this, he praised himself several times.
Through a thin layer of clouds, Su Buxing saw the location of Danfeng Peak.
Leaning forward, the celestial raft pierced through the clouds and headed towards Danfeng Peak.
