Chapter 219: Xu Caichen — I Can Finally Speak and Make It So Half a year later. In the Miscellaneous Dao Institute, within the private courtyard where Xu Caichen resided, he was vigorously writing, trying to complete an essay that would help him break through. He was now only one sentence away from finishing the piece. The wise need not be benevolent, but the benevolent must be wise. As soon as Xu Caichen wrote that final sentence, he suddenly felt an elevated sense of clarity, as if he had ascended to a higher state, and the cultural qi within him rose to a new level. Boom! A powerful aura shot straight into the sky. In an instant, a celestial phenomenon appeared. A nineteen-zhang pillar of light representing the Dao of Literature descended into the courtyard. Bathed in the radiance of this literary Dao, Xu Caichen immersed himself in the comprehension of heaven and earth’s righteous energy. Such a commotion naturally drew the attention of the disciples across the Miscellaneous Dao Institute. Chu Feng looked at the nineteen-zhang literary light and smiled faintly. “That brat Caichen has stepped into the True Fate Realm.” Elder Bing remarked, “I’ve long heard that the phenomenon created by a scholar’s breakthrough is different from ours as spell cultivators. Seeing it today, it’s indeed so. I just wonder what physique Caichen will awaken?” Chu Feng smiled and said, “We’ll know once we go check it out. Let’s go.” With that, the two rose into the air and flew toward Xu Caichen’s courtyard. Just as they landed, Qin Qin and the others greeted them. “Greetings, Master, Elder Bing.” “No need for formality.” Chu Feng cast his gaze toward Xu Caichen’s study, quietly waiting for the boy to emerge. Roughly two and a half hours later, the celestial phenomenon in the sky faded, and a familiar mechanical voice echoed in Chu Feng’s mind. “Congratulations to the host. Disciple Xu Caichen has broken through to the True Fate Realm. ‘Righteous Energy Scripture’ has reached minor success. Literary Intent has reached minor success. Host is rewarded with twenty years of cultivation and +4 Great Dao Truth.” Just as the voice finished, the door to the study opened. Xu Caichen stepped out and bowed slightly to Chu Feng and Elder Bing. “Disciple greets Master and Elder Bing.” “No need for ceremony.” Chu Feng was in excellent spirits. He had just gained four points of Great Dao Truth—this was the benefit of acting as a coach in the Miscellaneous Dao Institute for two and a half years. He had already brought calligraphy, music, painting, and literature to great completion. Now, any progress his disciples made in those paths would grant him Great Dao rewards. He smiled slightly. “How do you feel now, brat?” Xu Caichen said, “Master, I feel that now I can compose eloquent prose at will—my words carry power.” Chu Feng said with interest, “Since that’s the case, Caichen, give everyone a little performance. Let’s see what you’ve got.” “No problem.” Xu Caichen had long grown used to the strange expressions his master used. Of course, he also wanted to show off a bit in front of everyone. After all, he had very little presence within the Miscellaneous Dao Institute. “I wish to ride the clouds and soar.” As the words fell, a cloud appeared beneath Xu Caichen’s feet, lifting him into the air. Hiss... Ye Beixuan and the others involuntarily gasped. This technique was undeniably impressive and envy-inducing. Moments later, Xu Caichen descended from the sky, grinning as he asked, “Master, how was that?” Chu Feng patted his shoulder. “Not bad. You’re finally showing some progress. Keep cultivating. When the time comes, I’ll accompany you to have a good talk with that unreasonable father-in-law of yours.” Xu Caichen’s eyes lit up immediately. He had joined Wendao Academy in the first place to make his way to the Dragon Palace and reclaim his wife. Now that his master had spoken, joy welled up within him. He dropped to his knees. “Master’s great kindness—this disciple has no way to repay it. Please accept this bow.” Chu Feng pulled him up. “What are you getting so worked up for? Let’s talk again after we’ve rescued your wife.” “I will do my utmost.” Xu Caichen’s eyes were firm, and so was his heart. “Alright, tonight we’ll celebrate properly. Xiaopang, make sure to prepare a fine table of dishes.” Chu Feng specially instructed Wang Baole. “Yes, Master.” After returning from Tiandao Manor, Wang Baole didn’t hurry down the mountain to train. Instead, he remained on the mountain to continue cultivating and consolidating his foundation. With a Tai Sui growing nearby, food wasn’t an issue. Among the crowd, Han Ping was undoubtedly the one most envious of Xu Caichen. In his view, he and Senior Brother Xu were similar—both were average within the Miscellaneous Dao Institute. If Senior Brother Xu could do it, so could he. After the banquet ended, Han Ping immediately returned to his thatched hut to cultivate without wasting a moment. The Longevity Technique emphasized the absorption of the essence of heaven and earth, condensing it into innate spiritual power within the body. The essence of the moon was among the purest forms of energy in the world—he didn’t want to waste a single moment of cultivation. Time passed day by day. The Outer Sect Grand Competition was just one month away. Among the outer sect disciples, some were excited while others were anxious. Newcomers were eager to prove themselves, while older disciples felt both hope and pressure. This was especially true for those in the ninth stage of the Dao Foundation Realm who had nearly completed their ninth year on the mountain. If they couldn’t seize this chance to enter the inner sect during the competition, only two paths would remain for them to stay at Wendao Academy. One was to go down the mountain to train after the competition and break through to the True Fate Realm within a year. The other was to join the External Affairs Institute. But for a Dao Foundation cultivator, joining the External Affairs Institute meant being sent across the land to hold posts. Compared to staying in Wendao Academy, the difference in status and treatment was enormous. However, this atmosphere had no effect on the disciples of the External Affairs Institute, Miscellaneous Dao Institute, or Heavenly Spirit Institute. Even Chu Caiyi, who had made almost no progress in cultivation for nearly three years, wasn’t affected by the competition and hadn’t even registered. Chu Feng merely instructed the little girl to attend the competition with Nie Xiuyuan. Now that Nie Xiuyuan was the Grand Elder of the Miscellaneous Dao Institute, he had the qualifications to accept disciples. But for now, he had no such plans and was still living a carefree, indulgent life. If there was any change in him, it was that he now cultivated in his dreams every day. During the last visit to Tiandao Manor, he hadn’t been able to make a move, and he still felt a bit regretful about that. He planned to descend the mountain to train in the mortal world after the upcoming Outer Sect Grand Competition. Of all the disciples in the Miscellaneous Dao Institute, the most nervous was undoubtedly Han Ping. Over the past few months, he had been extending his daily cultivation hours and had faintly touched the threshold of comprehending Yin-Yang Intent. That day, at dawn, as the moon set and the sun rose and the sky brightened— Han Ping absorbed the lunar and solar essences between heaven and earth, continually comprehending their wondrous interaction. The moment moonlight was overtaken by sunlight— Han Ping suddenly had a moment of clarity and thought, “So this is the true meaning of Yin and Yang.” Moments later, he murmured, “I’ve finally understood the Yin-Yang Intent. The Longevity Technique is truly profound!” As he spoke, he circulated his innate Longevity spiritual power and continued cultivating. At the same time, in his half-asleep state, Chu Feng suddenly heard that familiar voice. [Disciple Han Ping has comprehended the Yin-Yang Intent. Rewarding host: +1 Great Dao Truth.] Hearing this, Chu Feng mumbled in his dream, “Good job, Paopao. I’ll leave this Outer Sect Grand Competition to you.” Hey readers!
