C866 Thank You Green Snake
Lin Cheng naturally didn't choose Green Snake out of impulse, but after careful consideration.
Green Snake was indeed far from enough in the realm of Cultivation Level. The current Green Snake was only at the first level of the Divine Ability Stage. Moreover, that was only after consuming the Nine-revolution Divine Pill. If she relied on herself to cultivate, when would she be able to break through, not to mention herself... Even Lin Cheng couldn't explain it clearly.
In fact, when he decided to give the Nine-revolution Divine Pill to Green Snake, Lin Cheng had already made it very clear to her.
At that time, the hidden danger in Green Snake's body had already been removed by Lin Cheng. But... Her foundation had been damaged in the early stages, even though it had already been repaired. No matter how hard she tried to cultivate now... The effects she had suffered would not be completely eliminated.
Of course, it didn't mean that Green Snake wouldn't be able to break through to the Divine Ability Stage at that time. If he had enough luck, or if Green Snake had an amazing comprehension ability, it wouldn't be impossible for him to break through to the Divine Ability Stage.
However, the possibility of this happening was too small. This point... Whether it was Lin Cheng or Green Snake, they were very clear in their hearts, especially Green Snake. Although she didn't know how Divine Ability Stage felt at that time, she could still feel it. It was very difficult for her Cultivation Level to advance any further.
Just like the current Longevity Sect, among the disciples who were loyal to the sect, there were a few who chose not to consume the Nine-revolution Divine Pill because they wanted to use their own hard work to break through the shackles and reach the Divine Ability Stage.
But in fact, everyone, including themselves, knew that with their talent, it was almost impossible for them to make any further breakthroughs. However, they didn't give up, or rather, they only had a wisp of obsession left in their hearts.
However, Green Snake chose to consume the Nine-revolution Divine Pill at that time. It was not because she gave up on her future path, but because she knew. Even if she relied on her own bitter cultivation to break through to the Divine Ability Stage, she wouldn't be able to continue breaking through. She would become a half-step Supreme Elder or even a Supreme Elder.
After consuming the Nine-revolution Divine Pill and breaking through to the Divine Ability Stage, although it would be extremely difficult for her to break through in the future, and perhaps she would eventually stop at the ninth level of the Divine Ability Stage, it was no different from her own painstaking cultivation.
Furthermore, there was also a Spirit Rhinoceros King who they didn't know if he was their friend or foe. If that Spirit Rhinoceros King was really their enemy, then to them... It would be a huge threat, and neither Lin Cheng nor Zhu Ziqiao would be a match for it.
If they died in battle at that time, Green Snake wouldn't even have the chance to cultivate.
Therefore, consuming the Nine-revolution Divine Pill at that time was naturally the best choice for Green Snake. She was still thinking the same thing, especially when she saw that those almighty experts had no choice but to conceal their auras. Only then could she escape the wrath of heaven and live in this world. Her heart was even more determined to make her choice.
The path of cultivation was originally heaven defying, and every step forward was incomparably difficult. This was even more so for someone like her who did not have high talent.
In Lin Cheng's opinion, Green Snake's heart was also firm. However, in her determination, there was an additional sense of judgment. However, this wasn't a bad thing.
It was also because of this reason that Lin Cheng decided to teach her the refining method of the Nine-revolution Divine Pill.
"You must have confidence in yourself. Since you were able to cultivate to the Core Sea Stage with the help of the Golden Jade Body, it means that you have extraordinary perseverance and a certain level of comprehension."
Seeing that Green Snake was still somewhat perturbed, Lin Cheng couldn't help but comfort him. Also, I choose to teach you the refining method of the Nine-revolution Divine Pill. It's not just because of my trust in you, but if you are suitable. ... I won't impart it to you either."
If Green Snake was really not suitable to learn the method to refine Nine-revolution Divine Pill, then not only would he not be good to her after imparting it to her, he would instead harm her.
Green Snake nodded silently when he heard this. She understood what Lin Cheng meant.
"Young Master, I just feel that I might disappoint your expectations..." Green Snake hesitated.
"What you failed to live up to is not my expectations, but yourself."
Lin Cheng shook his head and said, "Green Snake, don't have any psychological burdens. I will teach you how to refine Nine-revolution Divine Pill. It is not that I have any expectations for you. You can totally treat it as an ordinary teaching. It was like a combat technique or a cultivation technique. There's nothing special about it. "
Green Snake couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard that. An ordinary teaching?
If these words were to be heard by those sects' powerful beings, he didn't know if they would be angered to death.
Those people racked their brains and even tore off their cover to besiege Lin Cheng and snatch the Nine-revolution Divine Pill's formula, but they didn't obtain it. However, in her place, it became an ordinary teaching?
"You don't have to make a decision yet. I will stay in Longevity Sect for a few more days. You can think about whether you want to learn it or not during these few days."
Lin Cheng said, "But you must understand the refining method of the Nine-revolution Divine Pill. Actually, it was not some secret that was not passed down. It was just a kind of pill. It's just some special pill. But if you think about it carefully... Actually, it's not much different from other pills."
Green Snake thoughtfully nodded his head and suddenly asked, "Young master, you're leaving?"
Lin Cheng nodded and said, "I can't stay in Longevity Sect all the time. There is a great devil eyeing me like a tiger watching its prey from the outside. You know the current situation very well. It is very likely that the great devil is constantly recovering. I have to find the opportunity to break through as well. Of course... I still have some other things to do."
He didn't explain it too clearly, but he believed that Green Snake would understand.2
Sure enough, Green Snake couldn't help but nod his head when he heard this. In fact, he knew that Lin Cheng wouldn't stay in Longevity Sect for too long. It wasn't because the Longevity Sect was too small, but because Lin Cheng wouldn't gain anything here. Or, it could be said that no one could guide Lin Cheng anymore.
Even if the Longevity Sect was replaced by the Heavenly Star Sect, Lin Cheng wouldn't stay for too long.
Because Lin Cheng was now an almighty expert in the Dongzhou. Even the mighty experts of those sects were no match for him. Who else could give him guidance?
Therefore, from the moment Lin Cheng forced those powerful experts to retreat, Green Snake had already understood that Lin Cheng might have to leave. It was just that she didn't expect him to leave so soon.
However, when he thought of the threat from the Great Devil that Lin Cheng had mentioned, Green Snake felt relieved.
With the presence of the Great Devil, even if Lin Cheng wanted to stay here for a period of time, it would be impossible. If he wasted another day here, the Great Devil might recover a little more. Once that devil started attacking, perhaps no one in Dongzhou would be able to stop it.
"Young Master, there's no need to think about it. I promise."
Green Snake said, "If Young Master doesn't think I'm stupid, I'm willing to learn."
"That's right. As a cultivator, you should have this kind of indomitable courage. You must also have the courage to challenge everything. This is no different from an invincible belief!"
Lin Cheng smiled and nodded. "You should prepare first. I will leave a strand of Blue Fire for you. You need to familiarize yourself with this flame in the shortest time possible. Wait until you can completely control this wisp of flame. At that time, you will start learning alchemy!"
"Young master... Yes!"
Green Snake was shocked again. Just as he was about to decline, she took back her words and nodded her head in agreement.
Her heart was incomparably warm and grateful. Lin Cheng did not seem to be treating her as a maid at all!
Nine-revolution Divine Pill, what kind of pill was this? Green Snake could not be clearer. No matter who grasped the refining method of this pill, they could gather a force in a very short period of time, and even establish a sect.
And the Blue Fire was Lin Cheng's only flame. Furthermore, that was a Heaven-earth Genuine Fire. Not to mention that Lin Cheng was a mighty figure. Even if Lin Cheng's cultivation base had increased, or even broke through to the Half-step Sovereign... Even the Supreme Realm was extremely rare.
At least, Green Snake had never heard of anyone possessing a Heaven-earth Genuine Fire in the Cultivation Realm of Dongzhou. As for a flame like the Blue Fire, it was a famous flame in the Ancient Times. It was even a weapon used by a Most Powerful Person in the Ancient Times. He had never heard of it before.
But now, Lin Cheng actually wanted to give her such a precious flame. Even if it was just a wisp, the degree of preciousness was beyond Green Snake's imagination. Not to mention her, if any alchemist or Artifact-refining Master were to obtain a wisp of Blue Fire... I'm afraid they'll be overjoyed.
When Green Snake heard this, his first reaction was to reject it. She really couldn't accept Lin Cheng's Blue Fire. However, when the words were about to come out of her mouth, she finally nodded her head and agreed. It wasn't because she felt that a mere wisp of Blue Fire was nothing, but because she had already promised Lin Cheng that she would learn how to refine Nine-revolution Divine Pill. This Blue Fire was indispensable.
With her talent and her current skill in alchemy, if she had Lin Cheng's guidance... It was inevitable that her skill in alchemy would improve rapidly. However... No matter how much she improved, her foundation and talent were too poor. It was virtually impossible for her to reach Lin Cheng's current level.
However, if she had the Blue Fire, it might be different. Although she had never thought that she could reach Lin Cheng's current skill in alchemy, her improvement would definitely be much faster than before.
Furthermore, she knew that since Lin Cheng wanted to give her the Blue Fire, he must have his own intentions. It was just like the Nine-revolution Divine Pill formula, so Green Snake didn't reject it in the end.
But in fact, Green Snake had thought wrong about one thing.
"You don't need to feel burdened. Giving you the Blue Fire is not to increase your skill in alchemy, but to make it impossible for ordinary flames to refine the Nine-revolution Divine Pill."
Seeing Green Snake's expression, Lin Cheng roughly understood what she was thinking. He explained, "Actually, at the beginning stage, even if you have already grasped the Blue Fire that I gave you, I won't allow you to use it in alchemy."
