Chapter 236.1
Hahaha! I finally know the way forward! The Peerless Spear Immortal burst into laughter, suddenly enlightened.
Master! Chai Yuxin called out worriedly.
Dont worry, my disciple. Your Master is fine!
The Peerless Spear Immortal continued to laugh heartily, Your Master has just seen the path forward clearly, knowing how to attain the Grandmaster level. Thats why I couldnt help but laugh out loud!
Indeed!
The Sword Elder laughed in agreement: For a martial artist, finding ones own path to enlightenment is like discovering a great treasure! Congratulations, Brother Zuo, the Grandmaster status is within your reach!
Thank you, thank you The Peerless Spear Immortal responded with repeated bows, his face beaming with joy.
But then, he became troubled again.
Although he had found the way forward, how to actually walk it was still a problem.
Because the path he chose was to perfect the way of the spear.Updated from novelbIn.(c)om
To make his spear technique flawless and in harmony with the way of the heaven and earth.
But just by pondering on his own, who knows how many years it would take to succeed?
He feared that he might die without achieving it, living with regret forever.
However, there was a shortcut at hand.
The Peerless Spear Immortals gaze involuntarily drifted towards Lin Beifan.
By learning from him and reflecting on his own spear technique against the others Dao, it would be like copying the correct answers and then deducing the process backward; surely, he could obtain the technique he desired easier.
But how could he learn from him?
Without reason or relation, it was impossible for someone to casually impart their knowledge to you.
The Peerless Spear Immortal glanced at Lin Beifan, then at the Sword Elder, and let out a long sigh.
Well, its just a matter of pride!
If the senior Sword Elder could put aside his pride, why couldnt he do the same?
Thank you, Your Majesty, for enlightening me and showing me the way of the spear! I have an audacious request and hope you will grant it! The Peerless Spear Immortal bowed respectfully and spoke.
Lets hear it first! Lin Beifan said, without making any promises.
At that moment, the Peerless Spear Immortal knelt down with a thud and said loudly, I beg Your Majesty to take me as a disciple and teach me the way of the spear!
Lin Beifan was shocked!
The Sword Elder was shocked!
Chai Yuxin was shocked!
Everyone present was shocked!
The Peerless Spear Immortal, a peak Innate-level figure who had taken the spear technique to its limits, was actually asking to become Lin Beifans disciple?
Lin Beifan: F*ck!
Chai Yuxin: F*ck!
Master, how can you do this? You just discard your disciple like that? Chai Yuxin was heartbroken.
The Peerless Spear Immortal had taught her and had always been a respected elder to her.
How could anyone bear such a sudden severing of ties!
The Peerless Spear Immortals heart softened, and he said gently, Yuxin, this is just a nominal thing for the public. Otherwise, its hard to explain! Privately, I am still your Master, and you are still my good disciple!
Exactly, exactly lets keep each to their own, no need to take it too seriously! Elder Zuo, please get up!
Lin Beifan tried to help the Peerless Spear Immortal up but found he couldnt move him.
So he changed the way he addressed him, Disciple, please rise!
Peerless Spear Immortal exclaimed with ecstatic gratitude, Thank you, Master, for granting my request!
After bowing deeply once more, he stood up again, his face beaming with a smile as if he had just found a priceless treasure.
Sword Elder asked with a smile, Brother Zuo, what did you feel when you were kowtowing and taking him as your master just now?
Peerless Spear Immortal reflected carefully, At the beginning, I was very conflicted, unwilling to let go of my pride! But once I gritted my teeth and bowed my head, I felt a sense of relief wash over me! It was as if I had let go of everything, and aside from the path of the spear, everything else seemed unimportant like fleeting clouds!
Oh, thats exactly how I felt back in the day! Sword Elder laughed.
Sword Elder continued, Learning is like having an empty cup! You can only fill it with more if you pour out whats already inside. Once you let go of everything, you can proceed unburdened, and the path will not be far!
Thank you for the guidance, Sword Elder! Peerless Spear Immortal said, his gratitude almost brings him to tears.
Sword Elder put on a stern face, Still calling me Elder? Show some respect!
Peerless Spear Immortal was taken aback, then with a bow and a smile, he said, Junior brother greets senior brother!
Thats more like it, junior brother! Sword Elder laughed heartily.
The others joined in the laughter.
After the laughter subsided, Peerless Spear Immortal took the opportunity to ask Lin Beifan for a game of chess, to which Lin Beifan gladly agreed.
As the two played chess, they continued to practice and refine their spear techniques.
Although Peerless Spear Immortal was still soundly defeated, he managed to identify one or two flaws and corrected them, improving his spear technique by a notch and bringing him closer to the legendary path of the spear.
Peerless Spear Immortal was overjoyed. He had truly chosen the right Master!
Perhaps it wouldnt be long before he could break into the realm of a Grandmaster!
