Chapter 267: Spirit Wood
"I..." Ye Fei was so angry at Wang Ergou's words that his face turned blue: "Master, I admit that I am not very smart..."
"What do you mean by not very smart?" Wang Ergou interrupted Ye Fei with a look of disdain: "Just say you are a little stupid. You don't have to be so tactful in front of the master!"
Ye Fei: “…”
"I won't talk to you anymore! Let's go find my senior sister!" Ye Fei said angrily, "It's pointless to be with an old man like you. You just attack me all day long. Don't you have anything else to do besides attacking me?"
"I taught you the Heavenly Traveling Divine Vein Technique and teleportation last night. Do you think you haven't done enough?" Wang Ergou said disdainfully, "You are a heartless little bastard."
"Alright, alright, I won't talk to you anymore!" Ye Fei said disdainfully: "Let's go, go find Senior Sister!"
"If you want to go, you go. Why should I go?" Wang Ergou curled his lips, sat down on a big rock next to him, took out a pipe from his waist and started smoking.
Ye Fei glanced at Wang Ergou who was smoking. "Didn't you say that if we don't go, Senior Sister will burn down Fengjia Village? At this time, you still have the mood to smoke here?"
"Go and bring your senior sister to see me. I'll wait for you here." Wang Ergou lowered his head and fiddled with his pipe.
"Oh, okay then!" Ye Fei responded and casually glanced at the pipe in Wang Ergou's hand.
Suddenly, he felt an inexplicable sense of strangeness in his heart.
He suddenly felt that the pipe in Wang Ergou's hand did not seem to belong to this world.
Because he had been here for more than two years, and except for the one in Wang Ergou's hand, he had never seen this kind of old pipe that can only be seen in rural areas on Earth anywhere else.
Fortunately, he grew up in the countryside with his grandparents, otherwise, if he had lived in the city, he probably wouldn't have had the chance to see this thing. And it just so happened that his grandfather also smoked, and he also used this kind of pipe. Whenever he had nothing to do, he would sit in the patio outside the house to bask in the sun, holding a pipe in his hand and puffing non-stop.
It's strange, why, except for my master, I've never seen any old people smoking with this kind of pipe anywhere else?
Thinking of this, he suddenly realized that, let alone the pipe, he seemed to have not seen any other people smoking until now.
Whether it was the two years in the Demon Realm or in Tianluo City after returning.
I have seen many old people in the streets and alleys of Tianluo City, but I have never seen anyone smoking, let alone a pipe.
"Puff, puff..." Seeing Wang Ergou already smoking with relish, Ye Fei suddenly asked tentatively: "Master, what are you smoking?"
"Humph..." Wang Ergou said proudly, "This is a good thing. You wouldn't understand even if I told you!"
After Wang Ergou finished speaking, he suddenly knocked on the bowl of his pipe on the stone. Ye Fei could see that the tobacco in his pipe had burned out and it was time to change it.
He didn't have any tobacco in his bag just now, he was just smoking the little bit left over from last time.
When he was a child, he often helped his grandfather change tobacco leaves and other things. He knew a lot about this.
Not to mention that there were still tobacco leaves left from last time, this old pipe that has been smoked for many years can make even an ordinary smoker faint without lighting it, just by taking a puff from the empty pipe.
Ye Fei tried it when he was a child and was dizzy for a long time before he recovered.
Sure enough, after Wang Ergou knocked off the debris inside, he immediately took out a black pottery jar from his storage ring and pulled out a small black leaf the size of a baby's palm. He crumpled the small leaf into a ball in his hand and stuffed it into the pipe again.
Then he flicked his finger lightly, and a small flame flew out from his fingertips, landing squarely on the leaves that had just been put into the pipe bowl and lit them.
"Puchi, puff..." Wang Ergou started smoking again with a look of satisfaction on his face.
This old man, looking at his ecstatic look, could he be smoking this world's opium?
Master, you can't take drugs...
That won't work!
Ye Fei hurriedly reached into the pottery jar and took out a small black leaf.
I put it in front of my nose and smelled it, and I found a sense of comfort that invaded my soul.
"Why did you touch my martial soul leaf? Give it back to me!" Wang Ergou said coldly, "This thing is very rare. You can't buy it even if you have money."
"Martial Soul Leaf?" Ye Fei was surprised: "This, this is the leaf of the Martial Soul Tree?"
"Hey, kid, you're great! You actually know about the spirit wood! It seems that the past two years in the demon realm have not been in vain!" Wang Ergou was obviously a little surprised:
"Then do you know what the Martial Soul Wood is used for, and do you know how precious the Martial Soul Wood is?
Well, to be honest with you, Master has been helping you find the Wuhun Wood for the past two years. It's a pity that this old Wuhun Wood is even rarer than your ten thousand year old Qilin Fruit. It's really too hard to find.
The Qilin Fruit only grows in the magma mouths of volcanoes deep underground and is extremely difficult to be discovered. But the Wuhun Wood is different. It grows on the ground, and usually grows in some ancient battlefields where many people have died.
There are only a few ancient battlefields in the Wuyuan Star Region, and tens of thousands of cultivators go to those ancient battlefields every day to look for martial soul trees. As soon as the martial soul trees grow a little, they are taken away by others, and they never grow to adulthood. "
"What does adulthood mean?" Ye Fei asked.
"It takes at least nine thousand years to be considered an adult!" Wang Ergou said, "You don't know that this martial spirit tree can only grow one inch in three thousand years. Even if it survives by chance and grows to nine thousand years to be an adult, it will only be three inches long."
Wang Ergou shook his head: "Master's requirements are not high. I only plan to help you find a piece of newly matured martial soul wood for you to carry with you to absorb the soul power of those traveling between heaven and earth, so as to help you break through to the soul realm as soon as possible."
There was no falsehood in what Wang Ergou said.
Because he knew it best. After Ye Fei ate the Qilin Fruit and his physique changed, he immediately used up all his energy to help Ye Fei subdue the innate qi, thereby helping Ye Fei's cultivation level to soar to the peak of the Danyuan realm in an instant.
The next step is to gather the power of the soul and allow his soul to grow, because only in this way can he break through the Soul Origin Realm.
With Ye Fei's understanding, he knew that if his grandson could practice on his own and comprehend and absorb the power of the soul, who knows when he would be able to break through the Soul Yuan Realm.
Then, the only way is to go out and help him find the Martial Soul Wood, and let the Martial Soul Wood automatically help him absorb the soul power. In this way, not only will it not delay Ye Fei's daily practice, but in addition to his daily practice, he only needs to take out a little time to take out the Martial Soul Wood and absorb the soul power automatically stored in it.
It's a pity that in the past two years, he not only traveled all over the Wuyuan Star Region, but also traveled all over the Fuyun Star Region which is the closest to the Wuyuan Star Region. Originally, he planned to go to the farther Lingxu Star Region to take a look, but Ye Fei suddenly summoned him with the ancient divine bracelet. He was worried that something might happen to this silly boy, so he hurried over.
Otherwise, he planned to continue pretending that something had happened, hide outside for a few more years, let them train well in Tianxuan Academy, and then come back to see them.
Otherwise, he knew very well that with an old guy like him around, these young ones would always rely on him and it would be difficult for them to grow up.
However, when Ye Fei heard what Wang Ergou said, he was scared.
He opened his mouth wide and said, "Ah? Master, are you kidding me? I'm only in the Xiantian realm, and I can't even break through the Diyuan realm, and you're thinking about the Hunyuan realm. You're thinking too far ahead! I think if I can break through the Hunyuan realm before I'm sixty, I'll be very happy and satisfied.
After all, at least the Ye family in Tianluo City also has a strong man in the Soul Origin Realm, which means that my father and grandfather’s kindness in raising me have not been in vain.
Even though the Ye family treated me badly, I must repay the kindness of my father and grandfather. I cannot let them lose face. I must make them stand up straight!"
Wang Ergou glanced at him and said, "Are you planning to break through the Soul Origin Realm before you turn sixty?"
"Yeah!" Ye Fei nodded.
"Come here, put your ears over here, I'm going to tell you a secret!" Wang Ergou hooked his finger at Ye Fei.
"What's wrong?" Ye Fei hurriedly put his ear closer.
Unexpectedly, Wang Ergou hit him on the forehead with a pipe.
"Ah..." Ye Fei screamed, covering a bump on his head: "You're crazy, old man!"
"You useless thing, can you still be more promising!" Wang Ergou yelled, "Do you know that when I go back to the Floating Cloud Star Region, I have made a bet with a top expert there that we will meet to duel together in ten years.
But it's not a duel between the two of us, it's a duel between our two apprentices.
Moreover, not only will they compete in martial arts, but also in medical skills and alchemy!
You told me that you planned to break through the Soul Yuan Realm before you turned sixty. Why don't you just die? Or you can just die right now. I can't afford to lose face like that!"
"Ah? You made a bet with someone?" Ye Fei covered his head and immediately comforted Wang Ergou: "Don't be afraid, Master, don't worry, my sister and I will never let you down!"
"With the way you are behaving now, how can you not embarrass me?" Wang Ergou looked disgusted.
"There are still ten years left, why are you in such a hurry? We should practice hard in these ten years! We will call senior sister, Dashan, and Zhao Shiwu later. We will hold a sect meeting first, and you can tell them about this. In the next ten years, we will all practice hard and practice until we die!" Ye Fei looked serious.
However, after saying this, he suddenly asked weakly: "Hey, Master, um... I want to ask first, do you know what the cultivation level of the worst disciple of that person is like now?"
"Why are you asking about the worst thing?" Wang Ergou glared at Ye Fei fiercely.
"When we compete with others, we will definitely choose the worst one. How can we choose the best disciple to compete with others?" Ye Fei said as if it was a matter of course: "How can we win!"
Wang Ergou: “…”
Wang Ergou glared at Ye Fei with gritted teeth. At this moment, looking at his expression, it seemed that he even wanted to kill Ye Fei.
Then, he said unhappily: "The worst Dan Yuan realm!"
“Cough cough cough…” Ye Fei was almost choked to death: “The worst ones are all in the Dan Yuan realm? I…”
Ye Fei suddenly showed an expression of disappointment:
"Master, are you crazy?
I said, are you bored and have nothing to do?
He actually went to compete with the top masters in the Floating Cloud Star Domain to become a disciple?
What were you thinking at that time? Who gave you the courage?
Is it the third senior sister or Ding Dashan?
still me?
Or is it Zhao Shiwu?
I say you are really brave. With these crappy disciples of yours, only Third Senior Sister is barely capable enough. And you even dare to make a bet with others, and want your disciples to compete in martial arts, medical skills, and alchemy?
Haha, if you want to compete with others in playing Landlord, bragging, bargaining, etc., that's fine, but if you compete with those, aren't you just asking for trouble? "
"Can you be more ambitious?" Wang Ergou said coldly, "We haven't even started the competition yet, and you're already trying to boost others' ambitions and destroy your own prestige? Just like you said, there are still ten years left!"
Wang Ergou was very angry just now, but then he thought that Ye Fei didn't know his own strength yet, so it was natural for him to lack confidence.
It seems that as a master, I still cannot just keep attacking them.
When encouragement is needed, we should encourage them generously, cheer them up and help them gain a little confidence.
"Don't even mention ten years, even a hundred years can't compare!" Ye Fei said disdainfully, "The worst one of them is now in the Danyuan realm, and what about your disciples? I guess all the brothers and sisters in front of me, except for the third sister, have been cheated away by you, right? Now the only one left is the third sister, and your best disciple is only at the same level as the worst one. How can you compare them? Is there any comparison?"
"Don't you have innate energy? You are so scared!" Wang Ergou said coldly, "Don't worry, as long as I can find a mature martial soul wood, I promise to help you break through the soul realm within ten years!"
"Fuck, is that true?" Ye Fei grabbed Wang Ergou's arm excitedly, "Master, you are not allowed to lie! Anyone who lies is a puppy!"
"Okay!" Wang Ergou nodded immediately.
"No!" However, Ye Fei suddenly changed his mind.
"Why doesn't it work again?" Wang Ergou said.
Ye Fei: "Your name is Er Gou, so I'm at a disadvantage in this bet."
"Come here, I'll tell you another secret!" Wang Ergou hooked his finger at Ye Fei again.
Swish!
This time, Ye Fei not only did not go over, but also hurriedly took a step back: "The bump on my head hasn't even gone away yet, and I'm still being fooled by you! Anyway... Master, we have to make a new bet on this matter, a tougher one, do you dare to make a bet?"
"Bet!" Wang Ergou nodded: "As long as I can find an adult martial spirit tree, I will make you break through the soul realm within ten years!"
"Okay! Whoever cheats is a grandson. Do you want to bet?" Ye Fei asked.
"Bet!" Wang Ergou glared at Ye Fei coldly, "What a disrespectful thing! However, I have made it very clear that I must find a martial spirit tree in advance, and it must be an adult martial spirit tree, at least three inches long."
"Okay!" Ye Fei nodded: "What if I find a particularly long martial soul wood? Can you help me break through the Soul Yuan Realm earlier?"
"Extremely long?" Wang Ergou glanced at Ye Fei: "How long can it be?"
Ye Fei: "For example, the kind that is more than a foot long?"
“Ouch…” Wang Ergou covered his forehead with his hands, his face full of disgust. “Even if it’s three inches long, your master may not be able to help you find it, and you said it’s more than a foot long! More than a foot long requires at least 30,000 years of growth. One inch is 3,000 years, and it takes 30,000 years to grow to a foot. And you’re still more than a foot long… You really used the word ‘more’ well. Why don’t you just say it’s more than ten feet long…”
Swish!
Before Wang Ergou finished speaking, Ye Fei suddenly pulled out a dry branch from his arms and held it out to Wang Ergou: "Don't bother you to go out and find another one, I already have one! It's more than a foot long! Just tell me, a martial soul wood of this length can help me break through the Soul Yuan Realm a few years earlier!"
