After Meng Chuchu heard Wu Ye’s serious words, her eyes were filled with desire.
However, in the next moment, she shook her head firmly.
“Senior Brother, I want to take revenge personally!”
Wu Ye nodded in gratification. “Yes. If you can take revenge personally, you won’t have any inner demons during your cultivation in the future.
“By the way, don’t tell anyone about my identity. Keep it a secret.”
“Senior Brother, don’t worry. I know. This is our secret.”
Meng Chuchu said excitedly.
This was her senior brother. He was powerful, but he was willing to live a simple life in seclusion.
He was a real hermit expert!
In Meng Chuchu’s heart, Wu Ye’s image had risen to an unparalleled position.
“Alright, Chuchu. Since you want to take revenge, you should learn some real cultivation methods too.” Wu Ye said with a smile.
“Have I already passed your test?” Meng Chuchu asked excitedly, her breathing becoming rapid.
Of course, she grasped his point.
This meant that he had recognized her!
She was very glad that she was able to meet a senior brother like Wu Ye.
Now that she had passed the test, she could follow him and learn a true cultivation technique!
He was the inheritor of the current sword master. She would definitely be able to learn many powerful secret techniques.
Following that, Meng Chuchu quickly brewed a cup of hot tea for Wu Ye.
She then knelt down on the ground, her expression filled with incomparable respect.
“Greetings, senior brother!”
Meng Chuchu handed over the tea with both hands. This was the most standard etiquette in preaching and receiving teachings. It was usually used between disciples and masters.
Nevertheless, Wu Ye was both Meng Chuchu’s elder brother and her substitute master.
He was also her senior brother.
Hence, this etiquette was not considered to be crossing the line.
“Alright, Chuchu. Get up.”
Wu Ye took the tea and sipped on it.
“Chuchu, how much do you know about cultivation?” Wu Ye asked.
He was ready to teach her some common knowledge of the cultivation world.
“Well, I read some books about cultivation in the scripture pavilion. I don’t know anything else,” Meng Chuchu said with her head lowered.
Wu Ye nodded slightly and continued, “The so-called cultivation is cultivation in the truth.
“The ‘truth’ can be understood as the ‘principle of rules’.
“We cultivate the principles of the world. Therefore, the ultimate goal of every cultivator is to cultivate the Great Path.
“We’re cultivators. Therefore, when we greet other cultivators, we usually address them as ‘fellow Daoists’.”
Meng Chuchu’s eyes were filled with doubt.
Previously, for the sake of revenge, she had read all the books on cultivation. This was the first time she had heard of such a novel concept.
The phrase ‘cultivation in the truth’, in particular, had a mysterious meaning to it.
“The concept ‘cultivation in the truth’ is different from the current cultivation world. The two are not entirely the same thing.
“Cultivation in the truth is essentially a kind of thought. It advocates the Great Path of nature, returning to the essence.”
Hearing this explanation, Meng Chuchu suddenly thought of Wu Ye’s ordinary daily work.
In this case, had he been cultivating every day?
Had he been cultivating in a way that ordinary people could not imagine?
“As for the current cultivation world, it’s derived from cultivation. Because of the different cultivation concepts, different sects have been formed in the end.
“The Great Path of cultivation has only been formed for more than ten thousand years, but cultivation has existed since ancient times…”
Based on what Wu Ye had seen and felt over the years, he combined the Moral Sutra, religion, and other books from his previous life to explain the rules of this world one by one.
Meng Chuchu, who was listening beside him, was entranced.
It was the first time she had heard so many secrets about the cultivation world.
Even the sect master probably did not know the existence of the phrase ‘cultivation in the truth’, let alone the various theories hidden within.
At this moment, Meng Chuchu’s admiration for Wu Ye was growing.
Of course, if the senior experts of the Sword Control Sect, the Ten Thousand Sword Sect, the Lingxiao Palace, and other cultivation sects heard these advanced theories, they would also feel so dumbfounded that their jaws would drop.
A few days passed.
Wu Ye had already roughly told Meng chuchu his understanding of cultivation.
At this moment, he was sitting cross-legged on the futon.
In front of him, an ancient-looking long sword was suspended in mid-air.
This long sword was emitting a light blue light. One could vaguely hear the sound of sword chimes.
The entire herb garden was filled with sharp, invisible sword qi.
No doubt, this was a high-level magic treasure!
Golden flames appeared on Wu Ye’s fingertip as he continuously fused the path patterns, arrays, and precious materials into the long sword.
He was refining a weapon, which was the flying sword!
More than an hour passed.
The sword shook as if it had gained sentience.
“Rise!”
Wu Ye waved his hand, and the long sword fell into his hand.
“Not bad. It’s a treasure weapon.
“I’ll name this sword as the Jade Frost.”
The long sword hummed as if it was rejoicing that it had a name.
If other weapon-refining cultivators were to see Wu Ye easily craft a sword that was a treasure, they would definitely be shocked beyond words.
In the cultivation world, the magic treasures were divided according to their grades—magic weapon, spirit weapon, treasure weapon, Dao weapon, immortal weapon, and divine weapon.
In fact, only grand elders in ordinary sects were qualified to use a treasure weapon.
Even if a famous weapon refiner would probably take several years to refine a treasure weapon.
Moreover, all kinds of preparations had to be made in advance, and the success rate was only 30 percent.
Now, a top-grade magic treasure could be refined so easily.
When did a treasure weapon become so easy to refine?
When Meng Chuchu saw the Jade Frost, her exquisite face was also full of shock.
She did not expect that Wu Ye’s attainments in weapon forging would be so high!
However, such things were already common to Wu Ye.
He had signed in at the Sword Control Sect for several decades and obtained all kinds of divine abilities, spells, and martial arts manuals.
Currently, not only had he reached the peak of the Soul Formation Realm, but he was also a weapon refiner, alchemist, talisman master, array formation master, divination master, astrologer, and so on.
On average, each profession was close to the fourth grade.
Forging a long sword, which was the treasure weapon, was possible as long as one had hands, was it not?
“Junior Sister, the Jade Frost will be your flying sword in the future.”
Wu Ye handed the Jade Frost to Meng Chuchu.
“Senior Brother, this is a treasure weapon. Are you giving it to me just like that?”
Meng Chuchu’s eyes widened in excitement.
She understood the level of the magic treasure.
If this long sword were to be thrown into the outside world, it would definitely spark a bloodbath and attract countless people to fight over it.
She knew that the Sword Control Sect master’s flying sword was merely a treasure weapon..
