Longevity, starting from being a chicken raising servant

Chapter 505: Chapter 4 Heavenly Street_2

Beyond this, there are no other places that demand such an extensive consumption of Spirit Stones.

Pondering on this, he couldn’t help but ask with trepidation, “Master, does our cultivation… take such a toll on Spirit Stones?”

He had not sensed any serious problem when Elder Du mentioned it before, but after learning the level of consumption by Yao Wudi, he immediately realized the severity of the issue.

This is not a matter of large resources, it’s a matter of survival!

“Of course…” Yao Wudi was about to respond without hesitation, but immediately caught himself, he coughed, “Uh, not exactly, it’s just that I have high demands for myself. I have integrated too many Dao into my Wanfa, so I require a little more resources …”

Seeing Wang Ba’s persistent skepticism, Yao Wudi suddenly grew nervous within.

Such an agreeable disciple, if frightened away, where else would he find another one?

A sudden idea came to his mind, and he showed a conflicted expression:

“Well… I have an idea that I’ve never shared with anyone before. Once you’ve heard it, you mustn’t share it with anyone else …”

Seeing Yao Wudi’s expression, Wang Ba temporarily put aside his worries and promptly said:

“Master, feel free to share, as your disciple, I promise not to tell anyone else.”

Upon hearing this, Yao Wudi began gravely:

“My goal is that one day, I will ascend to The Heavens!”

“Ascend to The Heavens?”

Wang Ba was startled, then his face revealed a look of shock.

Throughout his years of cultivation, he had scarcely heard of anyone ascending.

After all, in the lands of Chen State and Yan State, even a single Immortal Master of Nascent Soul was hard to support, let alone ascension to The Heavens.

It was something simply unattainable.

Wang Ba didn’t even know at what level of cultivation one would be able to meet the requirements for ascension.

However, he could not conceal from his own heart that he was quite interested in this matter.

Yao Wudi seemed to perceive Wang Ba’s thoughts, and began to explain:

“After Immortal Ascension comes Void Refining. It is said that a cultivator at the Void Refining stage must endure the Nine-Nine Heavenly Tribulation, facing unimaginable dangers, then might they successfully cross the Tribulation and ascend to The Heavens.”

“Have any made it across?”

Wang Ba couldn’t help but ask.

Yao Wudi sighed, “Yes, but to my knowledge, this Tribulation is extremely difficult, too difficult! Very few have made it through.”

“From what I see, it’s because these predecessor cultivators who failed the crossing, despite reaching the required realm, lacked sufficient accumulation and depth. The Dao of Dharmas, although difficult in the early stages, no, throughout the whole process of cultivation, and also extremely resource-consuming, but once attained, the accumulative foundation achieved will be a height that many cultivators could never reach. Thus, the probability of crossing the Heavenly Tribulation is naturally much higher than most.”

Wang Ba was stunned, he suddenly remembered the scene when the Wu Monkey King was crossing the tribulation.

During the monkey king’s tribulation, it had drawn upon its solid foundation and easily made it through.

Whereas those Spirit Chickens who had ascended by means of Lifespan Breakthrough, even though their bloodline level was up to standard, they were too frail and shattered upon contact with the Thunder Tribulation.

According to this logic, Yao Wudi’s words carried some measure of reason.

“So, even if it takes more Spirit Stones…it’s not that unacceptable after all.”

Wang Ba thought to himself.

Seeing Wang Ba deep in thought, Yao Wudi quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

“Phew, I’ve managed to bluff him… But I haven’t exactly lied. If he successfully reaches the Void Refining stage …”

Naturally, this possibility was almost nil.

Even himself, he hardly dared to hope for reaching Void Refining.

Absolutely nothing but the Dao of Dharmas, the further along you go, the more resources it consumes.

Before reaching Immortal Ascension, with good talent and stable Dao-heart, there is a certain hope that you can attain it by piling up resources.

The resources required afterward are not just large in volume, he could not even find the words the describe what it felt like, in any case, the amount of resources needed is beyond imagination.

At least he did not have the confidence to achieve it.

However, he naturally would not speak of this to Wang Ba, all being said too early would only discourage Wang Ba.

Moreover, amongst the entire Wanxiang Sect, how many could reach the Void Refining stage?

Although Wang Ba’s talent seemed good in his eyes, it was not exceptionally outstanding.

“Come on, let us hurry and catch up with your Martial Uncle Tang.”

Not daring to let Wang Ba ponder any longer, Yao Wudi quickly changed the subject.

Wang Ba looked up and indeed Tang Ji and three others had already distanced themselves.

At the same time, the Teleportation Array at the high place was frequently lit up and the crowd on the street gradually increased.

Wang Ba followed Yao Wudi and quickly caught up with Tang Ji.

He noticed that Tang Ji had stopped at a vendor’s stall, it seemed he had found some interesting treasure and was currently bargaining.

Suddenly, there was a bit of a marketplace atmosphere.

Soon, Tang Ji stood up with satisfaction, holding a new Storage Treasure in his hand.

Just as he was about to say something, he suddenly cast his gaze at two people coming from the distance.

His gaze froze, and the original smile on his face gradually faded.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Among the two approaching persons, a middle-aged cultivator with grey hair and indifferent expression, also noticed Tang Ji and his gang.

A somewhat distant smile appeared on his face:

“Junior Brother Tang… Huh, Senior Brother Yao is also here?”

The grey-haired middle-aged cultivator was surprised to see Yao Wudi standing by the side.

Upon hearing the other party greet, Tang Ji didn’t put on a smiling face, and replied indifferently.
