I Turn Out to Be a Grand Master Chapter 9

Translator: Simple MTL  Editor: Simple MTL

When Zhu Zhao heard his old friend's words, he knew that it was because he could not eat grapes and said that grapes were sour. However, he did not expose him. He only said, “These words are tailor-made for our Grand Moon Sect's Dark Illumination Candle Scripture.”

The candlelight is regarded as day, the eye as night, the wind as winter, the exhaling as summer, and the breath as wind. The form that I condensed was also the Dharma Idol of the Candlelight. The inherited Dharma Idol of your Mystic Water Sect is the Ancient God of the Rain Pond, and it is not completely compatible with the Dao rhythm of this painting. As for the cultivation of the painter that you mentioned… ”

The expression of Daoist Master Zhu Zhao turned serious as he said word by word, “You are still wrong. This person is not only in the Dharma Idol realm, it is a terrifying realm that you and I can not fathom at all.”

“I might as well tell you the truth. Although I've already advanced to the Dharma Idol realm, I can only comprehend 20-30% of the Great Dao contained in this painting. This is because I've been cultivating the Dark Illumination Candle Scripture for a thousand years; otherwise, I might not even be able to comprehend 10% of its mysteries.”

“Hiss.”

Huang Ze immediately sucked in a breath of cold air.

“Even you can only comprehend twenty to thirty percent?! Who is the painter?!”

Who was the painter? Zhu Zhao also wanted to know this question, so he turned to look at the last disciple beside him: Yu Linglong.

“Linglong, you brought this painting. You should know who made this painting, right? Or where did you get this painting from?”

Several people looked at Yu Linglong at the same time.

She was the one who brought the painting,

“A young man!” Yu Linglong answered honestly, “That young man is the owner of a small store at the foot of the Mount Taiyin. A few days ago, Junior Sister and I went to the foot of the mountain to relax. Then, we accidentally entered this small store. Then, we saw this painting. As soon as I saw this painting, I immediately broke through and reached the realm of False Golden Core…”

“So that's how your False Golden Core cultivation came about. No wonder your cultivation progressed so quickly.” Zhu Zhao revealed a look of sudden realization.

“When I entered that store, I felt a little relaxed and very comfortable. Then, at first, I thought that the boss was just a mortal with an extraordinary temperament, until I saw this painting. Later, when the boss saw that I liked this painting very much, he said that this painting was drawn by himself. He said there were many others and he gave this painting to me.”

The boss of a store? And he was a young man?

Wasn't this too incredible?

“There are many similar paintings?”

Upon hearing Yu Linglong's words, the breath of Huang Ze and Zhu Zhao started to quicken.

“Linglong, apart from these, what else is there? Can't you tell that young man's cultivation level?” Daoist Master Zhu Zhao asked impatiently.

Yu Linglong only brought this matter up, and it had a great impact. Even before she took out this painting, she had already predicted that such a situation would occur. It was just that she didn't expect these two people to have such a big reaction.

However, after thinking about it, it was very reasonable. A painting that could allow a Nascent Soul cultivator to have a breakthrough was enough to make all the cultivators in the world go crazy.

Thus, Yu Linglong explained the matter in more detail. “That day, we went down the mountain for a stroll. At that time, Junior Martial Sister took a fancy to a few clay figurines, so I could only wait in that shop…”

Before Yu Linglong could finish her words, she was interrupted. “Wait, you said that your Junior Sister also bought something that day. How many clay figurines were there? Where are the clay figurines? Bring them over for us to take a look.”

Zhu Zhao immediately sent a message to his disciples, calling over the junior sister that Yu Linglong had left the mountain with that day. He emphasized even more on the clay figurines in her hands.

Very soon, those clay figurines were brought over.

The clay figurines looked lifelike and were full of interest. They looked ordinary and didn't have any outstanding qualities.

However, in the eyes of Zhu Zhao and Huang Ze, they were different.

From the patterns and colors of the clay figurines, the two of them saw the implication and interpretation of the earth-type Great Dao.

“Hu-”

Huang Ze put down the clay figurines, with a complicated look in his eyes, he sighed and said, “The clay figurines also contain endless Dao charms. If they fall into the hands of a cultivator who specializes in earth-type cultivation techniques, they will definitely be able to make a breakthrough and understand the principles behind them. But we are not cultivators who practice earth-element cultivation techniques…”

Daoist Master Zhu Zhao also nodded his head in pity.

At this moment, their hearts were already surging. They could almost imagine how extraordinary the small shop that Yu Linglong had entered was.

Dao filled the air, and the principles intertwined. Even their own cultivation bases would be restless because of this.

Hiss —— it was simply a paradise for immortals.

What kind of master would live in it? Would he be as ethereal and extraordinary as an immortal?

“The sun rises and the mountain shadows, the sun rises and the mountain shadows?” Daoist Master Zhu Zhao muttered a few words and suddenly shouted, “I understand, I understand!”

“The name of this painting is called ‘The sun rises and the mountain shadows', which is the address of our sect, and it just so happens that it coincides with the address of our sect!

And most importantly, the artistic conception in this painting is the same as the artistic conception contained in our Grand Moon Sect's cultivation method ‘Dark Illumination Candle Scripture'! Senior is trying to give me some pointers!”

“I guess it's possible that a great senior who has interacted with our Grand Moon Sect before has specially come to settle this opportunity. Cultivating fate, cultivating fate. It was very obvious that the fate of cultivating back then had come to an end today. This senior is really amazing. He actually calculated every step clearly. His cultivation level is really sky-high, and he can predict everything like a god.”

A look of understanding and certainty appeared on Daoist Master Zhu Zhao's face. He felt that his deduction must be correct. There was such a great senior who had an old relationship with his sect.

The room was quiet for a long time.

After a while, Yu Linglong said hesitantly, “Master's words do make sense. The reasoning behind this painting, the illustration of ‘The sun rises and the mountain shadows', is indeed too profound. We can only get a superficial understanding of it. Moreover, it just so happens that it fits our cultivation method too well.”

Upon hearing this, Daoist Master Zhu Zhao became even more proud and felt that his analysis made sense.

On the side, Huang Ze saw that his old friend was so smug, however, he couldn't help but mock, “Pui, you're too shameless. How can you force your way out of this! I think that it was a senior who felt that your disciple's aptitude wasn't bad and was polite enough to give it to her. In the end, you got off easy…”

“Hehe…” Daoist Master Zhu Zhao felt that Huang Ze was completely jealous and couldn't be bothered to explain to the sourpuss.

He handed the clay figurine on the table to the junior sister who was waiting outside. “Since this was given to you by a senior, then it's your opportunity. To cultivate one's fate and cultivate one's affinity, one had to pay attention to the word ‘cultivation'. One can't snatch it away. Hmm… In the future, I'll give you some resources as well. The rest is up to you. Don't let that senior down!”

“Linglong, although I'm very embarrassed, I still want to ask for your consent. I want to use this painting as a sect secret treasure, and as a way for everyone who practices the Dark Illumination Candle Scripture to comprehend it. Using sect contributions to exchange for time is, of course, up to you.”
