Chapter 955: Chapter 30: Subduing the Magic Treasure Chapter 955: Chapter 30: Subduing the Magic Treasure âMaster, are you alright?â
Yan State.
Shen Fu anxiously looked at the Confucian-robed elder seated on the futon, full of concern.
Feeling the sincere worry of his disciple, the Confucian-robed elder slowly opened his eyes, his pupils that were once full of brilliance now dimmed slightly.
He shook his head slightly, and a trace of coldness immediately flashed through his eyes:
âNo harmâŚ
Although those Evil Gods launched a sudden attack, their strength was ultimately poor, how could they be a match for your master?
I have already driven them back!â
His tone paused briefly as he looked at Shen Fu, a gentle and tender expression surfacing in his gaze:
âI heard from Qin Ya that you saw me fighting with those Evil Gods and you wanted to rush over immediately?â
Shen Fu, upon hearing this, instantly revealed a relieved expression and then sheepishly said:
âI was just worried about MasterâŚ
I underestimated you, Master, please forgive me.â
Liang Qiuyu, however, shook his head and said:
âThis isnât about underestimating or not.

If you have this filial piety, your master is too happy to blame you, how could I fault you?â
As he spoke, a look of lament surfaced on his face:
âIn our Saint Sect, although all cultivators are equal, everyone acts out of self-interest, and those who betray their masters are not uncommon.
In these more than three thousand years, I have seen quite a fewâŚâ
Soon after, he looked at Shen Fu, his face filled with a gratified smile:
âDisciples as filial as mine are rare indeed, haha.â
Hearing Liang Qiuyuâs words, Shen Fu couldnât help but feel a jolt in his heart, his thoughts racing, but his face showed an even more embarrassed scratch of the head:
âMasterâs words are too kind.
I am still too weak.
Otherwise, today I could have joined you in wiping out those damn gods of the Kingdom of Immortals!â
Liang Qiuyu, seeing Shen Fuâs sincere and straightforward face, was momentarily taken aback, as if he thought of something, his gaze shifted slightly, and he murmured to himself:
âYes, indeed a bit weak.
If you could reach the Nascent Soul stage soonâŚ
no, the Nascent Soul Middle Stage, no, best if itâs the Fulfillment-stage Nascent Soul, maybe then you couldâŚ
could be of help to me.â
Shen Fuâs face immediately showed a hint of shame:
âI have disappointed Master.
Despite so many Blood Sacrifices, so much waste of resources, I am still just at the late-stage of Golden Core.â
Liang Qiuyu quickly snapped out of it, looked at Shen Fu and chuckled as he stroked his beard:
âYou shouldnât be so harsh on yourself.
The cultivation method you practice, âThe Ten-sided Demon Sutra,â is inherently difficult.
You have talent that fits, otherwise even getting started would be difficult for an ordinary person.
To cultivate it to the late Golden Core stage in just a few decades, you are indeed supremely talented and full of potential.
Otherwise, do you think you would be placed ninth among the holy children despite your lower realm, just because of my face?â
âOh, right, you are no longer the ninth holy child but the sixth.â
Shen Fu was momentarily stunned:
âMe?
The sixth holy child?â
âThe third, sixth, and seventh holy children all died at the same time, and you and the other holy children naturally got promoted as well.â
Liang Qiuyu stated matter-of-factly:
âAs a holy child, you will receive more resources from the Sect.
You must seize this opportunity to advance to the Nascent Soul stage, so you can be of help to your master.â
Shen Fu nodded eagerly: âYes, I will definitely not disappoint Master!â
âHmm.â
Liang Qiuyu nodded, satisfied.
However, he soon noticed that Shen Fu still seemed hesitant and curiously asked:
âWhatâs wrong?
Is there something else?â
Shen Fu hesitated, but still couldnât help expressing his concern:
âMaster, youâre not lying to me, are you?
Are you really alright?â
Liang Qiuyu was startled, then laughed heartily, his long beard trembling:
âWhat could be wrong with me?
Just some damn gods, Iâve already sent them packing!
They probably donât dare to come here again.â
Shen Fu looked doubtful but still couldnât help but ask:
âButâŚ
why is there a black worm behind you, Master?â
âHm?â
Liang Qiuyuâs expression was startled.
He then laughed off the idea:
âHow could that be possible?
A black worm on my back?â
While laughing, his Spiritual Sence instinctively swept behind him.
As expected, there was nothing there.
His Spiritual Sence detected nothing.
Yet, the expression on Shen Fuâs face, hesitant as if he wanted to speak and the image reflected in his pupils, caused Liang Qiuyuâs heart to suddenly jolt.
Shen Fu couldnât help but say, âMaster, there really isâŚâ
âOh, thatâs just a vision from a cultivation method Iâve been training recently.
Didnât you just say you wanted to cultivate diligently?
Hehe, go and cultivate first.â
Liang Qiuyu said with a composed expression.
Shen Fu looked hesitant but still nodded.
He then bowed and took his leave.
Liang Qiuyu did not stop him, but after Shen Fu closed the door,
A water mirror immediately condensed in front of him.
In the water mirror, the image of an old man with his long beard fluttering was reflected, andâŚ
behind him, was a thumb-sized, threatening Pitch-Black Millipede!
His Spiritual Sence swept over again, but again, it was just empty space.
His Mana swept over, also with no change whatsoever.
But in the water mirror, that Pitch-Black Millipede was clinging to his back, bit by bit gnawing at the Spiritual Light naturally emanating from his body.
As the Spiritual Light dimmed, he vaguely sensed that he seemed to have lost something intangibly.
âLifespan?!â
Liang Qiuyuâs expression darkened.
Although the loss was minute, it was indeed a diminution of lifespan.
Seeming to notice the old manâs observation, the millipedeâs legs rapidly writhed, and its mandibles opened and closed slightly, as if it were mocking or sneering.
Then, it swiftly slipped into the void, vanishing from sight.
