Incredible Insight: Cultivating Immortality at Eight, Astonishing Zhang Sanfeng

Chapter 15 – Didn’t Feel Like Meeting Them

[You continuously attempt to use spiritual energy, and your proficiency in its application grows. You try to channel spiritual energy into your eyes and gain inspiration. You create the Immortal Technique, ‘Heavenly Eye for Observing the Skies!’]

…

[With the use of the ‘Heavenly Eye,’ your understanding of the essence of purple energy and moonlight becomes even clearer. You successfully integrate the North Sea Ingestion Technique and Moonlight Spirit Forging Technique, extending them to encompass the myriad phenomena of heaven and earth. You create the ‘Celestial Spirit Forging Art!’]

…

In the blink of an eye, several days had passed. Ning Changge continuously experimented with various ways to use spiritual energy in the scripture chamber, creating various Immortal Techniques. However, a considerable portion of them were based on previous martial arts, as this was the most time-efficient method.

In addition, the ‘Heavenly Eye’ and the ‘Celestial Spirit Forging Art’ were the ones he was most satisfied with. The ‘Heavenly Eye’ allowed him to see extremely far and gain a clearer understanding of the essence of things, seeing through everything at a glance. Coupled with his extraordinary comprehension, they complemented each other perfectly.

The ‘Celestial Spirit Forging Art’ was even more powerful than the previous two refinement arts. Now that his immortal path had begun to take shape, Ning Changge had successfully transformed his spiritual power into spiritual awareness, which could control objects, disrupt reality, and even perceive distances of up to two hundred zhang (Chinese feet=3.333m).

The ‘Celestial Spirit Forging Art’ could continuously temper his spiritual awareness, further transforming it. This not only accelerated his cultivation but also made his combat strength even more formidable.

On this day, Ning Changge had to temporarily halt his comprehension. Although he wanted to continue to gain insights and create more powerful Immortal Techniques, it had been five days since he had triggered the celestial phenomenon, and he had just begun to tread on the path of the Immortal Dao. It was only reasonable for him to go and meet his senior brothers, both in terms of courtesy and necessity. Besides, there was no rush; he could continue his cultivation later.

With this in mind, he moved his figure and left the scripture chamber.

…

At the entrance of Wudang Mountain, Song Yuanqiao and others were chatting with the representatives of the Five Mountain Sword Sects. Today, Yue Buqun and the others were about to leave the mountain.

It was evident that Yue Buqun and the others were filled with regret. Especially Yue Lingshan, her eyes frequently turned towards the direction of the scripture chamber, hoping for something. Her big eyes were filled with melancholy.

According to the original plan, they should have left the mountain three days ago. However, they had stayed for a few more days in the hope of meeting Ning Changge in person and having a close encounter with him. But now, it was no longer practical to continue staying. After all, all of them were leaders of their respective sects, and there were various matters to attend to within their sects. Moreover, Zuo Lengchan was biding for time, waiting for an opportunity. If they stayed away for too long, Zuo Lengchan might take advantage of the situation.

Yue Buqun sighed, “Master Song, there’s no need to see us off anymore. Young Master Ning is in seclusion, consolidating his cultivation and cannot be disturbed. It’s truly regrettable.”

His true intention was not just to establish a connection with Ning Changge; he also coveted Ning Changge’s strength. They could tell from Ning Changge’s extraordinary demeanor that his strength was probably second only to Zhang Sanfeng within Wudang.

Song Yuanqiao waved his hand with a smile. “Junior Brother has always been like this. I believe he is immersed in his cultivation. When he emerges from seclusion, I will certainly convey Master Yue’s goodwill.”

“That’s good! Then, I’ll be imposing on you!” The representatives of the Five Mountain Sword Sects smiled.

“Master Song, I’ve received information that Zuo Lengchan might act within the next month. When the time comes, I would like to ask Master Song to bring people to assist us!” Yue Buqun added.

Song Yuanqiao nodded solemnly. Yue Buqun hesitated for a moment and continued, “There’s something else you should know. Zuo Lengchan has somehow acquired an evil technique that has greatly accelerated his progress. It’s highly likely that he has already reached the peak of the Master realm, or even touched the threshold of the Grandmaster realm. Some of the Thirteen Custodians of Mount Song have also advanced to the Master realm. If Young Master Ning comes out of seclusion, it would be best if you can ask him to personally take action. Of course, it’s not that we doubt your ability, Master Song. We just want to ensure safety and protect our disciples.” Yue Buqun explained, showing an expectant look.

This was also the fundamental reason as to why everyone was forced to stay for five more days. They wanted to see Ning Changge in person and ask him to act on behalf of Wudang. Now that they couldn’t see him, Yue Buqun could beseech Song Yuanqiao to convey it to him.

Song Yuanqiao was stunned and nodded slowly. After some more conversation and arranging the timing, the representatives of the Five Mountain Sword Sects bid farewell and left Wudang Mountain. Meanwhile, Yue Lingshan kept looking back in the direction of the scripture chamber, sighing secretly, saddening Ning Chong. When she thought about the immortal -like figure from that day, she couldn’t muster anything that would even remotely come close to comparison.

…

Song Yuanqiao and the others returned to the hall with somewhat serious expressions.

“Given Zuo Lengchan’s strength, we need to be more cautious in the future. As for our junior disciple, there’s no need to inform him about this,” Song Yuanqiao said.

As for asking Ning Changge to take action, it hadn’t crossed his mind. In his view, even though Ning Changge was a genius, he was still an eight-year-old child. How could he let his junior brother go fight when they as senior brothers could handle it? They couldn’t let their junior brother risk his life.

Yu Lianzhou and the others nodded in agreement.

At this moment, a faint laugh echoed, “Senior Brother, I’ve heard everything that the Five Mountain Sword Sects discussed. Do you really think you can hide it from me?”

The Seven Heroes were stunned, their gazes following the direction of the voice. In the sky above, a young Daoist in white robes stood with his hands behind his back, appearing as if he were riding on clouds and mist. His speed was unimaginable, seemingly in one place one moment and right before them the next.

Everyone was dumbfounded, astounded by Ning Changge’s entrance.

“Junior brother, you’ve come out of seclusion!” Song Yuanqiao and the others showed expressions of astonishment.

“Is this what you call … immortal arts?” They could tell that no martial arts or techniques, no matter how extraordinary, could achieve such a grand entrance. Perhaps only the legendary Land Immortals were capable of such majestic feats.

Ning Changge nodded with a smile.

He had actually arrived earlier but chose not to reveal himself to the representatives of the Five Mountain Sword Sects.

“Junior Brother, since you were already here, why didn’t you come out?” Song Yuanqiao asked.

Ning Changge lazily replied, “I didn’t feel like meeting them.”

The hearts of the Seven Heroes sank. They understood Ning Changge’s personality. He was someone with extreme pride. Apart from Zhang Sanfeng and the senior brothers whom he regarded as close as brothers, he didn’t pay much attention to others. Even third-generation disciples had to catch him in the right mood to receive his acknowledgment.

However, upon learning that the Five Mountain Sword Sects were willing to share some of their martial arts and scriptures with Wudang, Ning Changge’s mood had improved considerably. He possessed an extraordinary comprehension ability, and these scriptures would serve as nourishment for his growth.

When it came to dealing with Zuo Lengchan, the Seven Heroes of Wudang had to be cautious. Ning Changge had already considered this. In the end, he wouldn’t let his senior brothers be endangered.

The Seven Heroes couldn’t help but smile wryly. Their junior brother was indeed one of a kind.

Most masters of the martial arts world would disappear and be hard to find when they didn’t wish to be seen!

“Junior Brother, did you truly succeed?” They finally asked, driven by intense curiosity.

They were merely curious, not suspecting his words. Ning Changge smiled and nodded: “I’ve made some progress. I still need to continue to comprehending to further my progress. At most, I can be regarded to have taken the first step.”

Everyone subconsciously stopped breathing.

After all, they knew that Ning Changge’s aspiration was the path of immortality. When he said he had made some progress, it was likely quite remarkable, especially considering the astonishing phenomenon that had occurred on that day.

“But the path I’m currently taking is only suitable for myself. In the future, if I reach perfection, I can teach it to you, my senior brothers,” Ning Changge said sincerely.

He had no intention of pursuing immortality by himself. In the future, the path to immortality would be inevitably disseminated. Only with countless others pursuing immortality could provide him with inspiration and materials, ultimately assisting him on his journey to eternal life.

Ning Changge was not a person without vision.

“Where are you getting at, Junior Brother? Do you think we, your senior brothers, are such greedy individuals?” Zhang Cuishan rebuked half-jokingly.

Ning Changge smiled and nodded, “In that case, I’ll teach it to the other six senior brothers in the future.”

The others burst into laughter and teased Zhang Cuishan.

Everything was conveyed without words. The deep bond between Wudang disciples meant they would readily sacrifice themselves for one another.

After the laughter, Mo Shenggu spoke, “Junior brother, you mentioned something called ‘spiritual energy.’ Could you let us experience it?”

He was filled with curiosity, and his eyes sparkled.
