Chapter: 5554

Long Sheng Bo laughed and said, "The experiences of a seventy-year-old person are not something that can be described in just three words."

As he spoke, he noticed Qing Xu's expression had become somewhat disappointed, so he opened his mouth again and said, "However, I can tell you this - I have indeed found the elixir of immortality."

Qing Xu was instantly excited again and asked hastily, "Teacher Longqing... You've mastered your spirit energy?"

"Not at all," Long Sheng Bo nodded straightforwardly. "We cultivate our spirit energy and only achieve a brief victory, otherwise we would be unable to escape death, old age, and sickness. As for me now, although I have gained some spiritual energy, it's not that I am truly immortal. It's just that my lifespan is longer than ordinary people."

Qing Xu asked tentatively, "Teacher Longqing, you must be over 155 years old this year?"

Long Sheng Bo nodded with a sigh and said, "I am indeed 156 years old this year."

"156 years old..." Qing Xu looked at him longingly and said, "You look like you're even younger than 56..."

Long Sheng Bo spoke calmly, saying, "This is the result of mastering one's spirit energy. I have already lived through the 19th, 20th, and 21st centuries. If I can live to see the 22nd century, then this would be my life without regret."

Qing Xu was taken aback, his legs trembling as he knelt down again on the ground, simultaneously knocking his head heavily and begging, "Teacher Longqing, please transmit the Clear Void's Immortal Way. If you agree, Qing Xu will follow you wherever you go, willing to take on any task - whether it be walking ahead or following behind, traversing treacherous mountains and crossing raging rivers, with no hesitation at all!"

The man who had left the path of cultivation for seventy years has now returned to this place, just like he was when he parted ways with Long Sheng Bo from the Longyun Temple. Every day, he practiced the Dao and refined his elixir, but he still couldn't find the gate to eternal life.

As he grew older, he thought it was already the end of his journey, but unexpectedly, he got to see his teacher again here. So, this has rekindled his deep-seated desire for immortality.

Long Sheng Bo looked at him and sighed lightly, saying with utmost sincerity: "Qing Xu, after so many years, I've returned to this place just to find you, to find the disciples of Longyun Temple, and share my gains from these years with you!"

Qing Xu was suddenly overcome with excitement, his whole body trembling as he looked up at Long Sheng Bo, choked up: "Long Qing Teacher... You... You really intend to transmit the way of immortality to your disciples?"

Long Sheng Bo nodded slightly, opening his mouth: "I've been thinking about Longyun Temple for these years, and Longyun Temple has been like a mountain to me. Of course, I hope it will always be prosperous and that you, as my apprentice, can follow in my footsteps and enter the gate of immortality..."

Qing Xu was ecstatic to the extreme, hastily performing three bows and shouting loudly: "Disciple Qing Xu is willing to offer himself up for Long Qing Teacher, even if it means going through boiling water or walking through flames!"

Long Sheng Bo smiled slightly, helping him up and saying with a smile: "This time I came back, my heart was already thinking about leaving the world behind. When the time comes, you can accompany me to seal the mysteries for five years, and I guarantee that you'll master the ability to control spirit energy."

Qing Xu was overjoyed at this moment, immediately saying: "Disciple Qing Xu thanks Long Qing Teacher's great kindness!"

Master Long Sheng Bo waved his hand calmly and said, "However, you can't be in a hurry now because I still have some other matters to attend to before I can leave my hermitage. You should stay at Longyun Pavilion and wait for me to finish these things. Then I'll come back to find you."

Qing Xu asked hastily, "Master Long Qing, disciple Qing Xu asks: approximately when will you be able to finish these matters?"

Master Long Sheng Bo fell silent for a moment before speaking up, "It may take three to five years, or possibly longer if things don't go smoothly."

Qing Xu's face turned pale with despair as he said, "Master Long Qing, disciple Qing Xu can barely hold on for three to fifty years..."

Master Long Sheng Bo sighed helplessly and said, "Ah, Qing Xu, I'm also at the mercy of someone. It was this person who helped me master spirit energy. These years, I've been staying by their side, just like you promised earlier. When I received the heart method from them, they asked me to take care of something for them. Until that thing is done, I'll have to follow their orders." JrNovels.com
