Longevity Begins From Raising Disciples-Chapter 403 - 216: Comprehending the Tao Stele, the White Fox’s Origins
It’s here!
Chen Ye was overjoyed, realizing that the name of the stone tablet was the Earth Element Tao Stele.
However, unlike cultivation techniques or skills, this Tao Stele had no minor or great success stages, with only ten proficiency points.
As soon as he started, Chen Ye could vaguely understand the meaning within the engravings.
"Songyang... Thick Earth... Carrying Objects..."
They seemed like runes, yet also like paintings, conveying the rhythm within through faint fluctuations of divine sense.
"This seems to discuss the principles of the virtue of earth... Well, it is the Earth Element Tao Stele after all."
Chen Ye murmured to himself, concentrating and deducing.
These texts and patterns were profound and complex, with a unique arrangement not known to any cultivation technique he was familiar with.
However, the heavy artistic concept of "earth" was very distinct.
Presumably, it was a Tao Stele once given by the Songyang Sect for its disciples to comprehend.
The more Chen Ye looked, the more engrossed he became, his fingertips moving along the engravings.
These carvings elucidated the ultimate truth of earth, and although not a cultivation technique, they were greatly beneficial to Chen Ye.
"Jiji?!"
The little white fox, napping on the side, suddenly opened its eyes wide.
This... This dumb human race person could actually understand it?
Wait a moment!
The little white fox understood; this human must be pretending!
He doesn’t want to lose face in front of this little fox!
"Jiji!"
The little white fox snorted disdainfully, turned over, and continued its nap.
It slept peacefully.
Because this place was the core area of the stone tablet forest, those cultivators outside had to carefully pass through the restricted zones at the outskirts to reach here.
At least for the time being, they wouldn’t encounter any other cultivators.
For the next three days, Chen Ye remained in deep contemplation.
The little white fox became increasingly suspicious. It could understand if Chen Ye pretended for a while, but pretending for three days... it was too strange for the fox.
Zhiwei rubbed the little white fox’s head:
"Xiaobai, Master is the most powerful cultivator in the world, don’t underestimate Master."
She had long understood, and now she was just accompanying her master in comprehension.
Even so, a bit of worry had settled in Zhiwei’s heart, as it had been three days, and others were due to arrive as well.
The little white fox grumbled discontentedly.
What most powerful cultivator in the world.
If he were really that powerful, how could he still be a Spirit Plant Cultivator at his age?
Not to mention now being caught in a Grotto Heaven.
You have to know, only the most extraordinary talents could comprehend this Tao Stele!
If Chen Ye could comprehend it, it... it would be willing to lick anything on Chen Ye, not just his fingers!
The little white fox stepped on Zhiwei’s soft lap, finding it incredibly comfortable!
But waiting for so long was somewhat boring; it gazed idly at the stone tablet, seeing Chen Ye trying foolishly, secretly amused.
Just at that moment,
a gentle earthy yellow light reflected in the little white fox’s pupils.
It resonated with Chen Ye from afar, and then returned to silence.
"Ji?"
The little white fox shivered all over, stunned that this human really understood!
Oh no...
The little white fox dumbly bit its paw.
It was a fox that faithfully kept its promises!
But thankfully, it had only sworn in its heart; Chen Ye definitely didn’t know, so he couldn’t hold it against it.
The little white fox guessed that if Chen Ye knew what it had been thinking, he would definitely threaten it later!
Perhaps he would even make it lick his smelly feet!
Zhiwei’s pretty face broke into a knowing smile.
No matter what, Master could do it!
Meanwhile, Chen Ye felt a mysterious clarity in his divine soul.
[Earth Element Tao Stele: 10/10]!
With proficiency full, Chen Ye felt his divine soul become illumined, as if a profound bridge existed between him and the Tao Stele.
Countless insights were transmitted across the bridge.
In no time, the line of text for the Earth Element Tao Stele on the proficiency panel disappeared without a trace.
"So the Earth Element Tao Stele is a one-time thing..."
Chen Ye murmured.
Now, although he hadn’t practiced any Earth cultivation techniques, his understanding of the Earth path was no less than his understanding of the Wood path.
In the future, practicing Earth cultivation techniques would surely yield twice the result with half the effort!
Moreover, the most direct change from comprehending the Tao Stele manifested in the Withering Prosperity Mysterious Light Sutra.
[Withering Prosperity Mysterious Light Sutra Minor Achievement: 35/100]
The proficiency directly increased by twenty points!
Do not underestimate these twenty proficiency points.
One must know that the Withering Prosperity Mysterious Light Sutra was completely different from the Evergreen Technique he had once practiced; even a single point of proficiency was hard to increase.
Especially now, with incomplete spiritual objects, improvement was even slower.
"To rely solely on five spiritual objects has a chance of Foundation Establishment, but it’s not great. However, if I can push the Withering Prosperity Mysterious Light Sutra to Great Success, then it will be a sure thing."
Chen Ye pondered, reasoning that constructing a large cycle should inevitably increase the proficiency of the Withering Prosperity Mysterious Light Sutra.
But how much it would increase, and whether it could push the cultivation technique to Great Success, remained an unknown.
Yet with the aid of the Tao Stele, Chen Ye felt much more confident.
He had a thought and glanced aside.
The little white fox was curled up on the ground, sleeping soundly like a fluffy ball of snow, resting peacefully.
Chen Ye, bearing a grudge, showed no mercy to the little white fox:
"Oh Xiaobai, didn’t you just wake up? How come you’re asleep as soon as you hit the ground?"
The little white fox’s ears twitched; it yawned, looking at Chen Ye in confusion.
Hmph, as long as it pretends not to know.
Then wouldn’t Chen Ye be too embarrassed to brag about his sudden enlightenment to a fox!
Besides, who suddenly attains enlightenment just like that? Does he have proof?
The little white fox thought it was quite clever.
Only, it underestimated Chen Ye’s shamelessness.
Chen Ye grabbed the little white fox, placed it in front of the stone tablet, and said with a smile: "We are family, and naturally, we cannot keep secrets. Just now, I successfully comprehended the Tao Stele."
