Chapter 245: Chapter 31: Each and Every One Under Master Changchun is Talented_1
 

…

The next day.

After a brief rest, Wang Shouzhe and the others split up for the day’s activities.

Most of them were led by the Old Ancestor Xuan Fu, marching forth with a grand momentum.

On the other hand, Wang Shouzhe was led by Wang Shouxin to Changchun Valley.

On paper, he was an external student under Master Changchun, practicing only the Qi Refining Chapter of the Longevity Youth True Verses. Now that he had successfully established himself in the Spirit Platform Realm, obtaining the Spirit Platform Chapter of the Longevity Youth True Verses had become an urgent matter.

They did not travel for more than an hour.

Wang Shouxin led him to the outskirts of a mountain depression and, after arriving, he apologized and said, “Brother Shouzhe, to avoid misunderstandings, I will not accompany you further. The disciples of Master Changchun are quite easy-going. A little inquiry will lead you to the Instructing Dao Palace.”

Avoid misunderstandings?

Wang Shouzhe was slightly surprised, but he didn’t investigate further and politely replied, “Thank you, Brother Shouxin.”

Next, Wang Shouxin added, “There’s something else you should remember. No matter your background in the Academic Palace, do not casually reveal your family background. Firstly, it’s against the rules of the palace. Secondly, it will prevent conflicts between students dragging your family into it.”

Wang Shouzhe had heard about this before. If you wish, you can even change your name. However, changing his name seemed unnecessary.

He respectfully responded, “Brother Shouxin, I understand.”

With that, the two parted ways.

Upon entering Changchun Valley, Wang Shouzhe’s view expanded dramatically.

The vast ravine bathed in sunrays, yet it wasn’t harsh.

Forests flourished majestically, unique flowers swaying gently along with the wind in the flower fields.

There was also a group of domesticated Spirit Bees swarming among the spirit flowers, gathering Spirit Honey and spreading the pollen, filling the environment with the chirping of birds and fragrant flowers.

What a pastoral scene!

No, to be precise, it was a heavenly farming scene.

Upon entering this valley, one could feel a vibrant aura all around, making every breath feel smooth and fresh.

It was said that this Changchun Valley was located on top-tier Wood Type Spirit Veins. Hence, even residing here for a long time would extend one’s lifespan and keep all diseases at bay.

The number of disciples in Changchun Valley was quite large, but they were all busily engaged in their own work, scattered across the fields cultivating various Spirit Plants, Spirit Fruits, Spirit Flowers, and Spirit Grass.

Not far away, there was an old farmer.

With his white beard and straw hat, he was carefully removing weeds from the Spirit Fields.

Wang Shouzhe approached and asked, “Senior, may I know how to get to our Changchun Valley’s Instructing Dao Palace?”

The old man looked up at Wang Shouzhe, chuckled, and asked, “Young man, why are you looking for the Instructing Dao Palace?”

Wang Shouzhe kindly replied, “I am an external student of Changchun Valley, having cultivated up to the Spirit Platform Realm. According to the rules, I have come to participate in the assessment and receive the Spirit Platform Chapter of the Longevity Youth True Verses.”

As he spoke, he conjured a small gourd of wine, filled with a few jugs of excellent Spiritual Wine.

He gave it to the old farmer and requested, “Please guide me, Senior.”

The old man’s eyes lit up. After taking a few sips of the wine, he let out a satisfied breath and said, “The wine is ordinary. But you, young man, are quite fitting to my taste.” He then casually gave Wang Shouzhe directions.

After parting ways with the old farmer.

Wang Shouzhe followed the directions, crossing the farmland, various streams, peach blossom forests, Spirit Fish ponds, and so on.

It took him a good half-hour to reach the place the old man had mentioned.

During this journey, he got to experience the extraordinary aspects of Changchun Valley — truly a place where Spirit Fields could be seen every three steps and Spirit Seeds everywhere he laid his eyes on.

Before him now.

A grand, simple, but heavy hall according to Changchun Valley’s style.

The wood corridor structure filled with rich greenery, adorned with some beautiful and rare flower cases.

Above the main entrance of the hall, there was a huge plaque. Amidst the dense collection of flowers, three gilded characters were faintly visible—[Instructing Dao Palace].

“It seems, I have arrived.” Wang Shouzhe thought to himself.

He immediately straightened his clothes and checked his reflection in the mirror.

Well, he was as handsome and suave as always. He felt reassured.

Then he checked the various gifts he had prepared ahead of time in his storage ring. It contained things of different styles and tastes, ready to be given at any moment.

This was what you called planning ahead.

He had prepared for several possibilities.

Even if the steward of the Instructing Dao Palace, the Senior Brother, meant to cause trouble, Wang Shouzhe was confident that he could handle it with his skills.

“Sigh~” When adults do things, they need to be reliable!

While pondering over this, Wang Shouzhe entered the grand door of Instructing Dao Palace with a composed air, first looking around.

“Huh?”

The scene inside the Instructing Dao Palace was quite different from what he had imagined.

In his imagination, a place of imparting knowledge and skills should be solemn and impressive, steady and without excess, filled with scholarly ambience and historical heritage.

However.

This place had a pastoral style all over. They used planks to form square frames and artfully arranged them. They were filled with all kinds of soils growing crops of various types.

There were also miniature formations designed to create or simulate different temperature and light conditions.

Around each indoor “ridge”, one or two disciples dressed in Changchun Valley’s garments roamed around, passionately engaged in discussion.

Elsewhere, students were crouching down, looking intensely at one aspect of cultivation, fully immersed and highly focused.
