Rising from Small Cloud Rain Technique

Chapter 206: Chapter 202: The World Is Vast, I Want to See It

The room was filled with a faint sadness, and Wei Songnian was deeply moved.

He couldn’t help but ponder, how many steps can he take on the long path of cultivation?

Now, it seems prosperous and splendid, but as time passes, he will eventually grow old. What difference is there between dying naturally and perishing in the struggle for answers?

“Senior Brother, what do you think is the most primal motivation for us cultivators?”

If one truly becomes an immortal and lives forever, what is the meaning of it?”

Wei Songnian asked softly, questioning both others and himself.

“The primal motivation, I think, is the fear of death.

The meaning of boundless life is that we can leisurely search for the meaning of life.

On the Immortal Path, with every step, we can witness an unprecedented view.

The footprints left behind will tell the world: I have been here!”

Ji An said calmly, recalling the scene of the first time he rode the Talisman Bird, the first time he traveled with only his magical power, the first time he cast a magic technique.

So many firsts await him. If not for opening the Immortal Vein, he wouldn’t have been able to cast magic techniques, and if not for breaking through Foundation Establishment, he wouldn’t have been able to cast the Spring Breeze and Rain Skill.

What is meaning? Meaning is a result, but also a journey. The combination of both gives meaning.

There are sword cultivators who can split mountains with a single sword, magic cultivators who can burn rivers and boil seas, and body cultivators who can cause landslides with a single step.

Ji An knew he was still at the bottom in the Cultivation Realm. The world is vast, and he wanted to see it.

In his previous life, he died after a hundred years. In this life, he has more time and means to climb the peaks, to lift his voice to the wind above the nine heavens, to not waste this life’s immortal fate.

Wei Songnian was silent for a moment, then smiled:

“Senior Brother’s explanation is quite original, afraid of death?! Indeed.”

In this world, how many people can remain calm when their life comes to an end?

He sighed resignedly, and then said:

“I can never match the Dao heart and talent of Senior Brother, even if I ride a flying shuttle.”

Living this life safely is enough for me, and I hope to see my family slowly grow.

After breaking through Foundation Establishment for more than ten years, I barely reached the Third-Layer Foundation Establishment. It seems good, but actually, I know it was all built upon pills.

My understanding of the cultivation technique is shallow. I don’t even dream of reaching the Chao Origin Stage; achieving Late-stage Foundation Establishment would be my limit.

Wei Songnian laughed softly:

“Although I have little hope of reaching great heights in this life, I hope my descendants can see the views from above in my stead.

Senior Brother, I’ve already found a Dao companion, and a celebration will be held in some time.

Afterward, there will surely be many children. Perhaps one might achieve something great.”

If his children have decent talent and can join a sect, he wants to ask Ji An to accept them as disciples.

He and Senior Brother Ji have known each other for many years and continually discover the unfathomable potential in each other.

However, these thoughts he couldn’t voice now, as maintaining the relationship would naturally lead to Ji An taking disciples in the future.

Ji An was taken aback, his expression slightly odd, thinking to himself:

’Aren’t you going to foster your kids with some intensity?’

He coughed lightly a few times and smiled, saying:

“When is the celebration planned, and what is the background of the female side?”

“The celebration will be held in half a year. She is a distant cousin, living with the family after falling on hard times, and has been working with me in Mingfeng Mountain Immortal City these years.

She has top-grade talent and hopes to establish a Foundation. I am currently preparing materials for the Foundation Establishment Pill.”

Ji An chuckled:

“Is she staying in Immortal City now?”

“No, she’s not. The family had some matters recently, so she went back with her aunt.

If she were here, I would definitely introduce her to Senior Brother.”

Ji An did not continue the topic and asked:

“Do you keep in touch with Senior Brother Liu Yu and the others?”

The other party knew everyone in his network, and given that person’s character, he would surely seek to build relationships.

Wei Songnian nodded:

“Yes, I often contact Senior Brother Liu Yu, Senior Brother Zhang Yuanshan, Senior Sister Zhao Mengyao, and Senior Brother Chu River.

Now I’ll send someone with a message to see if they are available tonight for a gathering at the restaurant, what do you think, Senior Brother?”

“Good.”

…

At late afternoon, the lanterns began to light up.

Looking down from the sky, the Immortal City was dotted with light, reflecting the stars in the sky.

Tripod Fragrance Pavilion is an industry of Luofeng Valley and is the most prestigious restaurant in the Western Continent.

Due to the numerous high-tier spirit farmers in the sect, the spirit chefs of Luofeng Valley cook spirit medicine and demon beast meat into medicinal dishes.

These dishes not only contain more spiritual qi but also nourish the blood and replenish the organs.

In the private room in the attic, Wei Songnian was eloquent, creating a very lively atmosphere.

Ji An looked at Zhao Mengyao, whose eyebrows were full of heroic spirit, and sighed:

“Senior Sister, having trained in the Law Enforcement Hall, naturally carries an aura of determination and bravery. I admire that.”

Since the establishment of Mingfeng Mountain Immortal City, she has stayed here for years, breaking through in battles, her face faintly bearing a murderous aura.

The number of high-tier female cultivators is small, and even fewer excel in magical combat.

Zhao Mengyao giggled, her voice clear, her chest heaving.

“I am only at the Fourth-Layer Foundation Establishment, and being praised by a Fifth-Layer Foundation Establishment Brother, feels somehow off.”

She learned about Ji An’s cultivation realm from Liu Yu and was amazed.

Recalling when they entered the sect and he owed them some debts, she thought he would lead a hard life, but unexpectedly, he soared high.

Now, even his cultivation has surpassed, making her realize that his potential has fully emerged.

She speculated that he possessed a certain Dao Body, feeling even more envious.

Some Dao Bodies manifest later, and their impact on cultivators can rival Celestial-Grade Talent.
