Chapter 267: Chapter 47 Three Scrolls, Great Accomplishment Realm

Liu Yishou watched the very proud Gu Xiaoxi, patted her head, and with a beaming smile said, "If you really think this incident has meaning, master doesn’t oppose. Then work hard, since you’re going to do it, be the best among people. In the army there are good soldiers and bad soldiers, master also hopes you will have a future as bright as your prospects, and a life of glory!"

"Master, are you supporting me?" Gu Xiaoxi asked, her hands supporting her chin, smiling wide.

"If master didn’t support you, could you have left the military to come back and continue being my disciple?" Liu Yishou asked.

Gu Xiaoxi shook her head decisively, now that she had found her life’s goal, how could she easily give up.

"That’s right! So master won’t force you."

"Then tell me, master, why are there other volumes of the Cultivation Technique?" This was the question Gu Xiaoxi cared about most.

Liu Yishou gently pushed up his reading glasses and then explained in a deep and aged voice, "The Cultivation Technique has a total of twelve scrolls. The three I gave you are the Early Stage Spirit Cultivation Scroll, and I have three more here which are the Mid-Stage Great Accomplishment Scroll. Very few people in the world could master these six scrolls. I myself have only cultivated up to the second volume of the Mid-Stage Great Accomplishment!"

"Ah! You’ve only reached the second volume of the Mid-Stage, no, didn’t you master the first three volumes by the age of ten?" Gu Xiaoxi exclaimed.

"Mid-Stage is Great Accomplishment, so each volume’s cultivation is much more difficult than the initial stage. Just this mid-stage volume, I’ve practiced for forty years. Maybe my talent is not enough, so I couldn’t reach the Great Accomplishment Realm," Liu Yishou said with regret. Gu Xiaoxi’s aptitude was very suitable for cultivating this technique; he had expended a lot of effort to teach her even that little bit.

He reluctantly left the Early Stage Three Scroll with her, and if she could master it, deep down he was quite pleased.

Hearing this, Gu Xiaoxi began to feel an itching in her heart; her trip to D State also made her witness the magic of the West.

In this world, capable people are everywhere. And she, could be said to be very small, although she was much more formidable than the average person, but compared to those capable people, clearly not good enough.

"Master, why don’t you lend me the remaining three scrolls to look at, and when I’ve learned them, I’ll give them back to you. Where did the other six scrolls go?" Gu Xiaoxi asked anxiously, as it was related to her future path so she must find the remaining Cultivation Techniques.

"Wait until you’ve mastered these three scrolls from me, then we’ll talk. These things were dug out from an ancient tomb by my ancestors. It is said that the tomb raiders included foreign scientists, so those three scrolls very likely made their way overseas and are not so easy to retrieve. If you master these three scrolls, your cultivation will be unmatched," Liu Yishou said gravely.

The car drove down the road, Gu Xiaoxi sat in the seat, arms crossed, with a solemn face. The path of cultivation indeed couldn’t be rushed.

So, it had to be taken step by step!

"Alright, thank you for your guidance, master, please pass on those three scrolls of the Cultivation Technique to me, I will definitely practice hard!" Gu Xiaoxi promised.

Liu Yishou patted her shoulder and seeing she would work hard on her own brought him much joy, feeling that this girl had finally caught on.

"I’ve always had high hopes for you. If you can also master these three scrolls, you will surpass master. If you can find the latter six scrolls and cultivate the Wuji Technique to an invincible realm, that would be the greatest success in life. No matter what you do, master won’t take care, but you must practice well and not neglect it."

"Yes, master!" Gu Xiaoxi promised with a beaming smile, "I definitely won’t let you down."

The two talked, and soon arrived at Liu Yishou’s home.

When she pushed open the car door, Gu Xiaoxi was so surprised that her mouth could fit an egg.

An antique house, very delicately constructed, nestled against the mountain and by the water, with rockeries and pavilions, with a small lake winding around it. The small villa was built against the mountain, with a waterfall flowing from the back of the mountain, the clear lake water flowing into the garden’s small lake, green and stunningly beautiful.

"Master, you are so rich!" Gu Xiaoxi exclaimed after thinking for a while, "even richer than mom!"

Liu Yishou smiled proudly. In his youth, he had been a big shot in the business world, taking both legitimate and shady dealings and laid the foundation for the Liu Family’s current flourishing prosperity.

He had few hobbies in his lifetime, just a fondness for collecting antiques. In his later years, he handed over his business to his children and devoted himself to studying cultivation and understanding the ancient divisions of the world.

"Come with me inside; I’ll show you my treasures!" Liu Yishou said with a hearty laugh, striding into the large living room.

As Gu Xiaoxi entered, she saw on the shelves a dazzling array of valuable jade carvings, porcelain, bronzes, bracelets, jade and other antiques.

Gu Xiaoxi smacked her lips! This kind of gesture is that of a true wealthy person. High-end, classy, and not something a nouveau riche could compare with. Just with the antiques in this room alone, her master was indeed rolling in wealth. And these were not items that could merely be bought with money.

"Xiao Xi, don’t be such a country bumpkin. Come here, your master will show you something good!" Liu Yishou stood at the top of the stairs, waving Gu Xiaoxi over.

Gu Xiaoxi immediately followed happily.

The second-floor study room.

He pushed open a hidden door, led Gu Xiaoxi through the entrance, and after ascending a ten-meter-long flight of stairs, they could see a small room.

The moment the light was turned on, Gu Xiaoxi rubbed her eyes. She saw that the room was filled with red sandalwood shelves, on which were placed boxes of various sizes.

Liu Yishou walked over to a box that was as big as a basketball, then took out a key to unlock the box.

As the box opened, inside was an attractive eye-catching jade gourd.

Its texture was smooth and translucent, with uniform green color and a lustrous sheen, clearly made from top-quality jade.

The gourd was carved so lifelike and beautifully that it was hard for anyone to believe their own eyes.

Gu Xiaoxi smacked her lips and couldn’t help but marvel; this was true antique collecting.

"This is the greatest treasure of my collection, a pristine green jade gourd, once the favorite object of an emperor from a certain dynasty. It has a history of over a thousand years and is now valued at eight hundred million Liuli Kingdom Currency! Compared to this, the items outside are nothing!" Liu Yishou looked at the jade gourd in front of him, so clear and shiny, he loved it so much, and it was his proudest collection.

Gu Xiaoxi hugged Liu Yishou’s arm, her big eyes turning into the shape of coins, "Master, teach me how to appraise treasures! One day, I’ll have a collection just like this, and I won’t do anything else in my life; just looking at these things will make me happy."

"Look at your little ambition, if you can master the Three Volumes of Techniques of the Great Accomplishment Realm, I’ll give you this jade gourd," Liu Yishou said nonchalantly, as if he was offering a head of cabbage—almost without a second thought.

Gu Xiaoxi thought she had heard wrong.

That jade gourd, worth eight hundred million, to be given to her~!

Oh my! That’s terrifying.

Gu Xiaoxi waved her hand and followed Liu Yishou to another small box, saying casually, "Forget it! Although you have many treasures, and they’re very valuable, I don’t lack money. I’m not very interested in treasures. To me, there’s no difference between a carving worth a few hundred bucks and a jade worth eight hundred million, as long as it looks good."

"Vulgar!" Liu Yishou opened another box with a key, explaining, "All jade nurtured by the earth, especially jadeite, has spirituality and needs to be nourished by Spiritual Energy, which would change its texture, ultimately forming a Spiritual Object. It not only wards off evil and protects the household but also extends life, improves physical constitution, and shields against all poisons."

"Really? Is it that magical?" Gu Xiaoxi turned back to glance at the jade gourd again, but she didn’t feel any Spiritual Energy. It just looked like the texture of the jade was eye-catching, which made it very pleasing to the eye.

So, she reached out her hand, activating her Cultivation Technique, and her palm gathered a white mist, which was the Spiritual Power she had cultivated. As the white mist approached the jade gourd, it went straight into it.

Gu Xiaoxi screamed, "Master! It swallowed my Spiritual Energy!"

"That’s why I told you, it’s not just any ordinary antique. After you have mastered these three scrolls, it will be yours. It might only be worth eight hundred million in the eyes of outsiders, but for us, it’s a priceless treasure!" Liu Yishou took out three scrolls from the box in front of him and handed them to Gu Xiaoxi.

Gu Xiaoxi took them with both hands immediately; to her, these were priceless treasures.

"Thank you for imparting the scrolls, Master," Gu Xiaoxi bowed deeply, happy, and then she carefully wrapped the scrolls and slung them over her shoulder.

"You don’t need to thank me. If you practice well, you’ll be worthy of these scrolls. I’m handing them over to you. Keep them safe, and if you find the right person, pass them on. Don’t let these Techniques be lost to time," Liu Yishou said, sighing slightly as he watched the scrolls being taken away by Gu Xiaoxi.

His cultivation had plateaued, and these items were of no use to him anymore.
