Chapter 876: Chapter 422: Catching Up on Updates...

When Tian Yue brought food, Tianfu also learned the news. To this, Tianfu didn’t feel much.

Because he had never met that aunt, and to be precise, she wasn’t really considered his aunt.

Compared to him, Tian Yue was obviously more worried about that aunt. No, Tianfu thought this girl concerned herself with everyone.

As long as they were part of the Tian Family.

"Brother Tianfu, do you think Aunt will... really be okay?" Although Tian Yue usually tried to think positively, she couldn’t help but feel worried this time.

Tianfu continued watering the flourishing Yellow Spirit Bamboo, but still looked back with a smile and reassured her, "Don’t overthink, the bad news reached the sect some days ago, and the sect’s support must have arrived by now."

After speaking, Tianfu squatted down, carefully examining the thriving Yellow Lingzhi, feeling its vibrant vitality.

At that moment, Tianfu had thoughts of nurturing this thing to become a millennial, or even a ten-thousand-year-old Yellow Spirit Bamboo.

Who knows what this Yellow Spirit Bamboo will be like in a thousand or ten thousand years.

Beside him, seeing the situation, Tian Yue quickly asked, "Brother Tianfu, why do you look completely unhurried? Still have the mind to care for the celestial and earthly treasures you planted... No, could it be you’ve received news about Aunt?"

Tianfu shook his head with a helpless smile, saying, "No, because being anxious doesn’t help, can being anxious change the facts? Just wait patiently. By the way, next time don’t bring sweets, prepare something spicy for your brother. When this Yellow Spirit Bamboo grows enough, I’ll cut it down to make a handy weapon for you."

"Alright, Brother. How spicy, the kind that makes you tear up?" Originally a bit worried, Tian Yue seemed calmer due to Tianfu’s tranquility.

"Anything works."

"(?￣?￣?) Got it."

Saying this, Tian Yue picked up the empty food box from yesterday, hummed a tune as she left Tianfu’s cave, her earlier worried state changed.

After Tian Yue left, Tianfu continued busying himself.

In the following days, there was still no news of that aunt’s return, but unexpectedly, his Uncle Celestial Soul suddenly visited.

Compared to some days ago, the uncle’s complexion was worse, looking somewhat odd.

Using his Divine Sense to probe, Tianfu discovered that the uncle was already showing signs of falling from Qi Cultivation Great Perfection, the crack in his Dantian unrepaired, instead showing a tendency to expand; it might be just a matter of ten days or half a month before his realm drops.

It seems the Celestial Family hasn’t found a way to repair the Dantian. Or maybe they have, but it’s too costly.

"Kid, you must cultivate diligently; with your Earth Spirit Root aptitude, as long as you cultivate well, Foundation Establishment is almost a sure thing, strive hard, maybe even higher." Uncle Celestial Soul earnestly patted Tianfu’s shoulder.

Seeing this, Tianfu glanced at his thick hand. This patting didn’t seem like teaching; it more felt like settling affairs.

Tianfu asked, "Uncle, are you leaving?"

"It’s nothing, Uncle just feels that since Foundation Establishment is hopeless in this life, it’s better to return to the clan. Only with elders like us holding the fort behind can you young ones move boldly forward."

Saying this, Uncle Celestial Soul wore a hopeful smile. If Tianfu hadn’t used Divine Sense to probe his Dantian’s condition, he might have been deceived.

Regarding this, Tianfu fell silent, for he also didn’t know how to repair the Dantian’s cracks.

If this uncle just leaves like this, his life span might not be long, for once the realm drops.

The upper limit of lifespan will also decrease, perhaps to the mortal hundred-year limit, maybe even shorter.

Given his current age, he almost has no years left.

"When you’ve reached Foundation Establishment, remember to come back and see." As Tianfu stayed silent, Uncle Celestial Soul again spoke, and then intended to turn to leave; but just took a step and paused, "In the future, do these things in your cave, don’t be so conspicuous, do you know how outsiders call you now?"

"I don’t know, nor do I care." Because Tianfu knew his behavior would certainly lead to criticism.

After all, in the Cultivation Realm, people almost trained all day, some even closing up for a year and half.

Compared to them, Tianfu was simply wasting time.

Uncle Celestial Soul shook his head with a smile, "They call you the Hermit of Grass and Wood, unlike one pursuing immortality and the Dao. If the old man didn’t see you haven’t neglected cultivation, I’d call you that too. Anyway, I’ve said my piece, boy, see you again sometime!"

"Uncle, leaving today?" Tianfu hurriedly asked.

Uncle Celestial Soul replied, "Just within these days."

With these words, Uncle Celestial Soul turned to leave, while Tianfu watched as this uncle gradually walked further, disappearing from sight.

After finishing pouring a bucket of Spirit Water, Tianfu left the cave, heading straight to the Market, where he found a clinic.

Trying to ask if there’s a method for repairing Dantian damage, but the answer was there’s none.

Asked a few more places, still receiving the same answer.

However, got an answer: the Wuji Sect Outer Disciples don’t have, but perhaps the Inner Sect might have ways, as the Inner Sect is the core of the Wuji Sect.

"But how can an Outer Disciple enter the Inner Sect?"

The old doctor at the clinic smiled, "The Inner Sect may be out of reach, but there’s a market open to outsiders between the Inner and Outer Sect in Celestial City; what the Inner Sect has, is almost all there."

After carefully inquiring further, Tianfu thanked the old doctor, then found a concealed place, changed clothes, and headed straight for Celestial City.
