CHAPTER 346: CHAPTER 154: MR. CHEN’S SPEAR! THE FAIRY’S FIRST DUAL CULTIVATION! (6K)

"Why so much talk about romance?"

Ling Yishan asked with a puzzled expression, "What does that mean?"

Chen Mo spread his hands and said, "Love and alchemy are similar, it’s all about accumulated experience. Daoist Qingxuan doesn’t understand relationships between men and women simply because she has too few experiences and lacks practice..."

"..."

Ling Ningzhi’s face turned slightly red, and she silently spat.

Tianshu Pavilion is a sect for female cultivators, which emphasizes the Path of Forget Love. She hasn’t met many men, so what practice could there be?

Apart from her grandfather, Chen Mo was the first man she had truly come into contact with.

As a result, she found herself bullied just like this...

Ling Yishan furrowed his brow and said in a stern voice, "You’re implying you’re using my granddaughter as practice?"

Chen Mo didn’t answer but instead asked in return, "Can Elder Ling guarantee that every pill he refines is perfect?"

Ling Yishan shook his head and said, "Alchemy relies on the right timing, environment, and people. The slightest change can lead to vastly different outcomes, even a Pill Saint cannot guarantee success every time."

"Exactly, it’s the same between a man and a woman."

Chen Mo earnestly said, "The medicinal properties can conflict, let alone two completely different people? To manage a relationship well, one must master the timing, find the right opportunity, and also have a bit of luck... No matter the result, doing your best is enough."

Ling Yishan pondered for a moment, then suddenly realized and frowned, "You brat, are you going in circles with me? You said a lot but meant nothing, do you think an old man like me needs you to teach me this reasoning?"

Chen Mo cupped his hands and said, "Mr. Ling is reasonable and insightful, naturally, there’s no need for me to say much."

"..."

Ling Yishan found this both amusing and irritating, and said, "Now I understand, you’re a very slippery one, Zhi’er is probably helping you count the money even as you’re selling her!"

"Mr. Ling, you’re exaggerating."

Chen Mo put on an image of innocence.

Ling Yishan suddenly called him over, having surely discovered something.

After all, the two had indeed had intimate contact, and Ling Ningzhi was clearly the type who couldn’t hide anything... at such times, to keep pushing back and justifying oneself would only cause dissatisfaction.

What he just said was, in fact, a "disclaimer."

So that if something went wrong, the old man wouldn’t find fault with him again...

"Grandfather," Ling Ningzhi tugged on Ling Yishan’s arm, and said softly, "Mr. Chen is my lifesaver, can’t you just let him off?"

"Heh, a grown daughter can’t be kept, is this not all for you? Just asked a bit more, and you’re already defending him... fine, I won’t ask anymore, no more questions." Ling Yishan waved his hand in disinterest.

"Grandfather, I wasn’t..."

Ling Ningzhi’s face was a bit flushed, she secretly glanced at Chen Mo.

Even though she was confused just now, one thing was certain... Chen Mo hadn’t denied their relationship.

That made her inexplicably giddy inside.

Perhaps there was more between the two of them than just a transaction?

"Kid, don’t misunderstand, the old man isn’t bullying with power, nor relying on my age."

"This old man is already old and indifferent to life and death, Zhi’er is my only concern, naturally, I’m very mindful of that."

Ling Yishan raised his hand into the void, and a wisp of golden brilliance spread, accompanied by a clanging sound reminiscent of dragon roars, he pulled out a golden spear out of thin air.

"For saving Zhi’er’s life several times, you’re a great benefactor to our Ling family. This spear is named ’Sky Splitting’, refined by Artifact Dao Saint Wu Xuan from Outer Heaven Meteor Iron, infused with a trace of Sun and Moon Essence Poison, it can unleash the most extreme power of a Martial Cultivator, enough to serve you until you reach Grandmaster level."

Chen Mo reached out and took the spear.

The Sky Splitting Spear was considerably heavy, its material akin to glass, its surface shimmering with golden luster, with a three-sided tip exuding a chilling coldness.

He tried infusing it with a bit of True Yuan, and dazzling golden light burst forth suddenly!

Accompanied by a clear and intense clanging, countless golden particles surged like tides, the spearpoint exhaling with energy, emitting an extremely sharp aura, as if it could easily pierce through everything in the world!

A prompt flashed before him:

[Obtained Heavenly Rank Top Grade Weapon: Sky Splitting.]

However, Chen Mo could clearly feel that this spear likely surpassed the category of Heavenly Rank Top Grade, only just short of the spirit to match a true Holy Treasure!

One method mastered, all methods mastered.

Ever since he comprehended the "Azure Dragon Shattering Star Power," every move and technique he performed merged with the Daoist Charm, long since not limited to Sword Technique.

The more weapons he mastered, the more complex situations he could handle.

"Compared to the Broken Jade Blade, this spear seems more suited for breaking formations and slashing through..."

Before Chen Mo could regain his senses, a streak of light flashed by, and he caught it in his hands, realizing it was a simple jade scroll.

Ling Yishan said, "Your knowledge in Alchemy Dao is impressive, recorded in here are my cultivation insights over the years, which should greatly benefit you."

Chen Mo’s mind delved into it, immediately overwhelmed by the vast ocean of information within!

Inside, not only were there insights into the Alchemy Dao, but also the Formation Path, Artifact Dao, divination... along with numerous alchemy recipes and arrays thought to be long lost!

It’s important to note, Ling Yishan is not only highly skilled in magic but also a dual Grandmaster in Alchemy and Formations!

The weight of these insights is self-evident, even more precious than the Sky Splitting Spear!

"Mr. Ling, this is too valuable, I am unworthy to receive..."

"Enough, don’t be coy, it’s given to you, so take it."

Ling Yishan said flatly, "In my eyes, nothing is more precious than Zhi’er, entrusting Zhi’er to you, I hope you treat her kindly... ugly words first, if you dare let her be wronged, no matter how powerful your backers are, I will demand answers from you!"
