Chapter 378 Immortal Ancient Method

Chapter 378: Immortal Ancient Law

The sun was high in the sky.

Yue Chan woke up, feeling the madness of last night and the lingering marks on her body, her face flushed, and her eyes narrowed again.

“If you’re awake, get up. I made you stewed chicken with mushrooms to replenish your energy so you’ll have strength to continue tonight,” Lin Fan smiled.

“Ah… again?”

“Didn’t you say you wanted to have children? If so, then more is better every day to increase the chances.”

Yue Chan trembled, a little scared and a little regretful, realizing she had been too hasty last night.

“Fool, I’m just kidding. There’s plenty of time, no need to rush. For now, we should focus on Cultivating.”

“But I still want to sleep a little longer…” Yue Chan breathed a sigh of relief, but also slept very soundly.

After all, ever since she left the Three Thousand Provinces, she had been very unaccustomed to everything here, as it was all so unfamiliar.

Upon arriving at the Nine Heavens Immortal Academy, the only one she could rely on was her Junior Brother, which was why she was so proactive last night.

Lin Fan looked at her, feeling as if she had become somewhat spoiled. Was this still the Fairy he remembered, who was wholeheartedly devoted to the Dao?

“Yue Yue, please recover.”

Yue Chan: “…”

…

Smoke curled upwards, and the aroma of meat filled the air.

In the large cauldron, golden light shone brightly, emitting endless Essence Qi, accompanied by wisps of Immortal glow, shimmering with colorful light.

The aroma was too rich; it contained not only meat but also monkey head mushrooms and some Spirit Medicine that Lin Fan had gathered from the cliffs, all crystal clear.

Just a sniff made one’s mouth water, making them want to eat immediately.

“Is this what you called stewed chicken with mushrooms? This chicken is a bit too big, isn’t it?”

“Besides, where did you catch it? We just settled into Wolong Land; we don’t raise Heavenly Rank Divine Birds like the Golden-Winged Great Peng here.”

Yue Chan was confused.

“The Immortal Academy isn’t just one Wolong Land; it covers a vast area with a complete range of species. Just go hunting outside, and you’ll find one.”

Lin Fan stated seriously and frankly that he was helping the academy control the number of species, doing good deeds, and indicating that it was safe to eat.

Yue Chan was speechless. After so many years of being together, didn’t she know what was going on? He must have captured rare beasts from the neighboring lands.

“We’ll be living here long-term, so I also caught a few creatures to raise for our culinary desires,” Lin Fan said, pointing to the nearby mountains.

Compared to yesterday, the various great mountains had a bit more Life Qi, with Vicious Beasts appearing occasionally and Divine Birds spreading their wings.

For instance, there were hundred-foot-long Silver Sky Centipedes in the jungle, Azure Luan with phoenix feathers on the Peaks… and even near them, a Flood Dragon in the cold pool beneath the waterfall.

Yue Chan was startled. This was not “a few”; he had clearly moved entire nests back, and they were all rare ancient beasts.

Without even thinking, these were definitely not wild, ownerless creatures; most likely, they were raised by the Immortal Academy’s Disciples as mounts.

“Junior Brother, won’t this be bad? We’ve just arrived. If we’re discovered…”

Yue Chan was worried. The thought of being confronted and accused made her lose face after all. Her Junior Brother truly didn’t make things easy.

“What’s there to fear? In a place like the Immortal Academy, to obtain more Cultivation resources, you must contend!” Lin Fan said indifferently.

“Well said. Our Immortal Academy does not forbid fighting. As long as no lives are harmed, we encourage Disciples to spar with each other to verify what they have learned.”

As the two were speaking, a thin old man appeared on the mountain Peak and walked directly towards them.

“You are…” Lin Fan and Yue Chan were puzzled, looking at the arriving old man. Since they had just arrived, they didn’t recognize many people in the academy.

“Let me introduce myself. I am Zi Ying, the Second Elder of the Immortal Academy. For this period, I will be teaching you Immortal Script.”

The old man said, and without ceremony, began picking delicacies from the cauldron to eat.

The two were startled and quickly paid their respects, inviting the Second Elder to sit down.

“The taste is good. You two are much more interesting than the other rigid and arrogant Disciples in the academy. I believe soon, the academy will also become lively because of you.”

The Second Elder was very casual, even taking out a pot of wine and drinking with the two without any pretense.

After they had eaten and drunk their fill, he began to lecture them, introducing them to the Immortal Ancient Law.

“In the previous epoch, the Ancient Law was very different from our Cultivation system. To learn it, one must understand its script and language, only then can one cast spells, Daoist Magic, and so on.”

Lin Fan and Yue Chan nodded, expressing understanding, as this was inevitable. After the Immortal Ancient era, the environment changed greatly, and many things changed with it.

“Let’s start with the script!” Zi Ying said seriously and solemnly, beginning to engrave in the Void Realm, one symbol after another appearing.

These characters seemed to be cast from metal, shining brightly, suspended in mid-air, densely packed, like stars twinkling.

Before long, the Second Elder had already inscribed tens of thousands of characters, making the place resplendent, with rays of light soaring into the sky, permeated with a most fundamental Dao Qi.

Seeing this, Lin Fan and Yue Chan were astonished. The Immortal Ancient script was indeed miraculous; merely the characters pointed directly to the Great Dao.

“First, learn these. Simple language communication should be enough, but they greatly require the aura of the Immortal Dao.”

The Second Elder said, also stating that this was only a small part of the Immortal Ancient characters; the complete set amounted to millions, vast as a galaxy.

Then, he looked at the two. One was like a little monster, not only reaching the Peak of the current law but also Cultivating Three Immortal Qi.

The other was not far behind, suspected to be the Reincarnation of Qing Yue Zhen Xian, which made him very eager to see how long it would take them to master the Immortal Ancient script.

“Every single character contains a Profound Truth, explaining rules and principles, condensed into one character.”

Lin Fan was already comprehending. The more he pondered, the more he found it mysterious, and a headache began to set in. Remembering them would certainly not be a simple matter.

No wonder there were rumors that the Immortal Ancient Law emphasized the general trend, directly pointing to the Origin of the Great Dao, unique and elusive.

In contrast, Yue Chan, with her clear and ethereal presence, like a Fairy from the Moon Palace, was the most unusual. As she comprehended, a green moon appeared above her head.

Wherever the moonlight reached, all the characters glowed, surging towards her and merging into her body, a strange sight.

Seeing this, the Second Elder was stunned, finding it somewhat unbelievable.

No one would have thought that Yue Chan, with the lowest Realm, would comprehend the characters the fastest, even surpassing Lin Fan.

“Naturally suited for Cultivating the Immortal Ancient Law!” the Second Elder exclaimed, such an achievement was rare in the world.

Lin Fan smiled slightly, thinking of a method. He grabbed one of Yue Chan’s delicate hands and connected with her Divine Thought, comprehending the ancient characters together, greatly increasing their efficiency.

Thus, in just a few days, tens of thousands of characters were mastered by the two.

The Second Elder’s mouth twitched; he was even a little envious of this boy.

Next, he shook his robe sleeve, and a strong wind arose, with Chaos mist billowing. The sky seemed to be covered by something, becoming dim.

“A mountain?!” Lin Fan exclaimed in surprise.

It was a small white jade mountain, the height of a fist, palm-sized, and very exquisite, flying out from the Second Elder’s sleeve.

With a boom, it rapidly grew larger and landed not far away, shaking the ground with a rumbling sound.

“These are the millions of Immortal Ancient characters you truly need to master next.”

“So many, this is too tedious,” Lin Fan gasped.

“If you comprehend deeply enough, you can condense them into a few thousand characters, or even a few hundred, to explain all the rules and Profound Truths.”
