Longevity Martial Arts: Starting from Inner Core Skill - Chapter 857 - 11: Lying Low for Fifty Years
Chapter 857: Chapter 11: Lying Low for Fifty Years
After Dong Yu returned home, he immediately gave the spiritual pill that Wang Sheng had crafted to his mother.
The spiritual pill was concocted by Wang Sheng after understanding Dong Yu’s situation, and even though it was made on short notice, for an ordinary person like Dong Yu’s mother, it was an incredibly potent Divine Medicine.
Healing was simple, as straightforward as that.
Dong Yu had been worried about his mother’s illness for so long that he could discern many things.
Seeing his mother’s condition visibly improve after consuming the Spiritual Medicine, he knew that everything he’d encountered was real.
And naturally, Dong Yu’s mother could also sense her own state.
“Yu’er, where did you acquire this elixir?”
Dong Yu’s mother was well aware of her illness; over the years, she had tried various “remedies” Dong Yu brought home.
She knew they were futile efforts, but thinking she didn’t have many years left, she consumed them each time so as not to waste her son’s effort.
She even thought inwardly, what if it worked?
But now that it truly succeeded, worry took hold.
An elixir that could instantly cure her disease was undoubtedly rare and definitely not something Dong Yu could easily obtain.
Dong Yu had anticipated his mother’s questioning; repressing his joy, he said, “Mom, I met a benefactor, a powerful individual. Your illness is nothing to such strength, easily resolved.”
“But even for a powerful benefactor, they wouldn’t give you such an elixir without want, right? Do they need you to do something?”
Dong Yu paused briefly before replying, “Don’t worry, it’s nothing dangerous. Things a powerful benefactor wants done aren’t within my capability to meddle.”
Dong Yu’s mother knew it wouldn’t be as simple as that.
But things had come this far; what could she do?
A benefactor capable of healing her so easily, if they truly wanted her child to do something, they had means.
Now, this was the most gentle approach.
She sighed, saying, “I know I can’t stop you, but remember, life is the most important thing.”
Some things she had to say.
“If something happens to you, living would have no meaning for me.”
“Rest assured, Mom, nothing will happen…” Dong Yu didn’t know how to explain, only repeatedly promising.
Though, deep inside, he was uncertain.
Spreading faith, though he’d never done it, he knew it couldn’t be simple.
Once alone, he took out the booklet Wang Sheng gave him.
The booklet began by introducing a sect.
[Lifeless Sect, venerating the compassionate Lifeless True Saint…]
Dong Yu spent an entire night reading through all the doctrines.
Honestly, he was quite surprised.
Upon opening it, he had braced himself for the worst, thinking this was the doctrine of an evil cult.
But the Lifeless Sect’s doctrines, from any point of view, weren’t considered a cult.
On the contrary, they seemed virtuous.
Certainly, Dong Yu didn’t know what he read was an abridged version.
The sections on revolution and rebirth had different explanations, and some rebellious content was omitted.
After all, rebellion is sensitive anywhere, easily drawing attention.
“If that’s so, maybe there really isn’t much risk, but it’s best not to promote it on Guiyuan Star; it could expand on some subsidiary planets…”
Dong Yu unconsciously began to involve himself, planning.
Once he was familiar with the Lifeless Sect, Dong Yu once again found Wang Sheng in the library.
“Mr. Wang, I’m already acquainted, should I start directly?”
“Soon, but first I’ll help you address your physique issue.”
Attached Dao Body either forcibly holds energy or seeks a Tao to become its vassal.
The stronger the vassal Tao, the stronger he becomes in turn.
“Follow me…”
With a thought, Wang Sheng brought Dong Yu into the starry sky.
Then he directly displayed the Divine Skills of the Heavenly Gate Stage.
In an instant, countless Tao paths emerged.
Dong Yu watched the awe-inspiring spectacle before him, realizing the Mr. Wang he inadvertently encountered might be an even more terrifyingly strong individual than he’d imagined.
Moreover, he felt those mysterious rivers drawing him.
It seemed that with choosing a path to anchor himself unto, he could soar to over heights.
“See which river is closest to you, then touch it; this is your chance!”
Being a vassal naturally had flaws.
If Dong Yu became a vassal to the Tao, he would be limited by it, unable to comprehend other Tao paths.
And unless there was unparalleled fortune, he could never truly control the Tao.
Yet even so, if given the chance, countless others would choose it.
Regardless, after becoming a vassal to the Tao, Wang Sheng estimated, as long as nothing unexpected occurred, reaching the Twelfth Realm would be no problem.
Plus, he could employ the Tao of the Twelfth Realm.
The power surely wouldn’t be weak.
And the Twelfth Realm, even among myriad beings in the old homeland, were few.
Compared to the gains, those flaws were trivial.
Dong Yu didn’t know this; he was completely drawn in by the Great Tao River now, his gaze darting.
If it were ordinary people, they might be lost.
But Dong Yu held back his greed, following Wang Sheng’s instructions, began searching for the tao closest to him.
Soon, he was irresistibly drawn to a fiery river.
As though this river was his homecoming.
Upon seeing this river, his desire for the others vanished instantly.
