Chapter 61 Current number of Level 1 Treasure Maps: 43
time flies.
In the blink of an eye, a year has passed.
On this day, the Taoist aura emanating from Jinxia Cave gradually subsided.
Huanglong Zhenren and Yuding Zhenren stopped their discussion.
Yang Jian sat cross-legged on the ground, still savoring the moment.
Chen Changsheng had already woken up and listened to the two's discussion, gaining some insights as well.
Just then, a system notification suddenly sounded in his mind:
【Ding! 】
[Congratulations, host, you have successfully checked in.]
[Reward: One Level 1 Treasure Map]
[Current number of Level 1 treasure maps: 4,300.]
[Should we synthesize an advanced treasure map?]
Chen Changsheng completed the sign-in but did not choose to merge the advanced treasure map.
At this moment, Huanglong Zhenren looked at Yuding Zhenren with a smile on his face:
"Junior Brother Yu Ding."
"I have gained much insight from this discussion."
"I won't bother you any longer."
As he spoke, Master Huanglong slowly stood up.
His previous discussion with Yu Ding had given him many new insights into cultivation.
He naturally wanted to return to his own dojo as soon as possible to cultivate in seclusion.
"Alright, senior brother, please feel free to do as you please!"
Master Yu Ding gave a casual reply.
Then, Huanglong Zhenren turned his gaze to Chen Changsheng and Yang Jian.
"Two little ones."
"If fate allows, you are welcome to visit my temple in the future."
"When the time comes, your senior master will be there to welcome you."
Master Huanglong said with a smile.
Upon hearing this, Yang Jian snapped out of his reverie and quickly rose with Chen Changsheng, bowing deeply to Huanglong Zhenren:
Goodbye, Senior Master!
"Ha ha!"
Master Huanglong laughed out loud and left without lingering.
After Huanglong Zhenren left.
Yu Ding looked at Yang Jian and Chen Changsheng and asked:
"During this discussion of the Dao with your senior master, you two listened attentively. Did you gain any insights?"
If there is anything you don't understand.
"You can tell me."
Upon hearing what Master Yuding said, Yang Jian's eyes lit up.
Having heard the teachings before, he indeed had many insights, including many things he didn't understand.
Seeing that Chen Changsheng did not intend to ask any questions, Yang Jian spoke up:
"Master."
"After listening to my senior brother Huanglong's discourse on the true words of the earth dragon, I have come to understand the way of the earth's virtue in bearing all things."
"After listening to Master's teachings on the Sword Heart, I came to understand the principle of striving for progress."
"Is the way of heaven and earth nothing more than the balance of strength and gentleness, the mutual generation of yin and yang?"
Upon hearing Yang Jian's question, Jade Cauldron Immortal smiled slightly, not rushing to give an answer, but instead looking at Chen Changsheng meaningfully.
"Master Changsheng."
What do you think?
In Yu Ding Zhenren's view, Chen Changsheng's cultivation level had improved rapidly because he had taken a first-stage Golden Pill and a Primordial Spirit Fruit.
However, without a certain level of natural talent and comprehension, it would be difficult to achieve this.
He was also eager to see just how aptitude Zhao Gongming's disciple possessed.
Upon hearing this, Chen Changsheng remained calm and replied:
"Master Yu Ding."
"The path of cultivation should be as solid as the earth and as sharp as a sword."
"But more importantly, we need to find a balance."
As the saying goes, "Too much rigidity leads to breakage, and too much softness leads to weakness."
Upon hearing Chen Changsheng's answer, a hint of surprise flashed quickly in Yu Ding Zhenren's eyes.
He never expected that Chen Changsheng would have such a profound and insightful understanding after listening to the teachings for more than a year.
"Well said."
The next moment, Master Yuding couldn't help but exclaim in admiration, and then asked:
"Then do you know?"
Why should we combine strength and gentleness?
Chen Changsheng smiled faintly and replied:
"The operation of heaven and earth, the alternation of the sun and moon, and the cycle of the four seasons are all the result of the balance of strength and gentleness."
"The balance of strength and gentleness is for the sake of continuous life."
"If there is only strength, nothing can grow; if there is only weakness, nothing can stand on its own."
"Only by combining strength and gentleness can life continue endlessly and cycle endlessly."
"And this is also to conform to the way of Heaven."
Following Chen Changsheng's reply, Jade Cauldron True Man's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and he unconsciously exclaimed in approval:
"well!"
"I never expected that my nephew Changsheng would have such extraordinary comprehension."
"What a wonderful cycle of life, endless renewal!"
While praising him, Master Yuding turned his gaze toward Yang Jian.
"My disciple, do you understand?"
Yang Jian nodded and murmured an "Mmm":
"Disciple understands."
As he spoke, he glanced at Chen Changsheng standing beside him, thinking to himself:
"My brother-in-law has definitely changed."
"This demonstrates such profound and clear understanding of the Great Dao."
"No wonder he was able to cultivate to the Golden Immortal level in such a short time."
At the same time, Master Yu Ding was also shocked.
Originally, I just wanted to test Chen Changsheng, but I didn't expect that Chen Changsheng could answer all my questions fluently.
"Zhao Gongming has truly taken on a good disciple."
Master Yu Ding sighed inwardly.
After thinking about it for a moment, he calmed down.
Chen Changsheng is indeed extraordinary, but his own disciple Yang Jian is no less so.
Just then, a system notification sounded in Chen Changsheng's mind again:
【Ding! 】
[A level 4 treasure location has been discovered.]
[Location: Below the meditation cushion of Master Yuding!]
"Um?"
Upon hearing the system notification, Chen Changsheng was startled and subconsciously glanced at the futon where Jade Cauldron Immortal was sitting, inwardly complaining:
"Should we do this?"
"Why are the treasure locations that the system always drops in a rather unusual place?"
Just as Chen Changsheng was lost in thought.
Master Yu Ding also noticed that something was off about his eyes and asked:
"What happened to Changsheng?"
"But what don't you understand?"
"If there's anything you don't understand, please feel free to ask."
Upon hearing this, Chen Changsheng snapped out of his reverie, shook his head, and said:
"no."
"I sensed that there was some kind of treasure under your futon, Senior Uncle."
Upon hearing Chen Changsheng's words, Jade Cauldron Immortal was greatly alarmed.
"What?"
"treasure?"
"Right under the cushion I'm sitting on?"
He was secretly surprised and somewhat incredulous.
After a moment's hesitation, Master Yuding burst into laughter:
"Ha ha!"
"Chang Sheng! Are you joking with your senior master?"
Yu Ding did not believe what Chen Changsheng said.
After all, this Golden Cloud Cave is his own place of practice. If there were any treasures there, wouldn't he, as the owner, know about them?
Seeing that Master Yuding didn't quite believe it, Chen Changsheng didn't mind and quickly explained:
"Senior Uncle, I'm actually quite skilled in treasure hunting and cave exploration, which is why I sensed it!"
Before Jade Cauldron Immortal could reply, Yang Jian quickly chimed in:
"Master!"
"Chang Sheng really knows how to do it. Back in Guanjiangkou, he often helped mortals find tombs and never failed."
After the two men spoke, Master Yuding's expression became more serious, and he looked down at the futon he was sitting on.
There's nothing there!
He probed with his divine sense but found no trace of treasure beneath the futon. However, seeing Chen Changsheng's serious demeanor made him uncertain.
