Longevity, starting from being a chicken raising servant

Chapter 996: Chapter 39: Accepting a Disciple_4 Chapter 996: Chapter 39: Accepting a Disciple_4 But he quickly spotted Ji Lan’s figure, and his tail lashed out again, and at the same time, his tongue shot out!

However, faced with this pincer attack, Ji Lan still used his old trick.

His body flickered, and he vanished at the intersection of the two assaults.

“The mastery this person has over the teleportation array is somewhat unexpected,” Li Yingfu said as he quietly observed the exchange between the man and the beast.

Wang Ba couldn’t help but nod slightly in agreement.

The move Ji Lan had just used seemed like instant teleportation, but in reality, it was the construction of a temporary teleportation array in the blink of an eye, allowing him to pass through instantly and create the illusion of a teleporting movement.

...

This level of mastery over teleportation arrays was simply beyond what ordinary people could imagine.

Even Wang Ba had never seen anyone handle them with such familiarity and precision.

As the man and beast played a game of cat and mouse, chasing and dodging, neither of them suffered the slightest injury despite several exchanges.

Wang Ba’s gaze flickered, and he suddenly spoke up,

“Enough, Fu.

Stop.”

Hearing Wang Ba’s command, Fu stopped abruptly, visibly annoyed.

Its tan vertical pupils glared at Ji Lan, with a trace of irritation.

Too slippery!

This human was absolutely infuriating!

He could have bitten the man to death in one bite, yet he just couldn’t catch him.

When Ji Lan heard Wang Ba’s words, he thought Wang Ba did not approve of his response.

Realizing that almost half his mana had been expended in a blink, a sense of urgency rose on his face,

“My lord, please give Ji Lan one more chance, this time Ji Lan will not dodge anymore.”

Wang Ba shook his head slightly, “Enough, you have already met my expectations.”

“But I will not save the East Saint Sect.”

Ji Lan’s face showed a brief flash of delight, then confusion, “My lord…”

Wang Ba said nothing.

He flicked his sleeve.

A storage treasure flew straight towards Ji Lan, who hastily caught it.

Full of confusion, he scanned it with his spiritual sense, then his eyes widened in shock.

“These are…”

“Nascent Soul-level cultivation methods and all the elixirs needed for a Golden Core breakthrough into Nascent Soul.

This is the help I will give you…

Without a Nascent Soul cultivator to hold the fort, the East Saint Sect can never truly establish itself here.”

Wang Ba’s expression remained calm,

“Just make sure you keep the promise you made to me.”

Ji Lan was deeply moved.

He then quickly said solemnly,

“My lord, Ji Lan will not go back on his word.

If my lord does not trust me, I can draft an oath right now…”

Wang Ba waved his hand indifferently,

“It doesn’t matter if you go back on your word.

It would just mean that my last bit of sentimental ties to the East Saint Sect are completely severed, which could be a good thing.”

Ji Lan was taken aback, but he immediately realized the confidence hidden in the other’s words.

After a moment of silence, countless thoughts swirled in his mind.

He took a deep breath and suddenly spread open his palm.

In his hand appeared an antique bell, as well as a storage treasure.

He then offered them up with both hands, respectfully.

“My lord, this is the sect treasure of the East Saint Sect—the God-Sealing Bell.

It can command Fanming’s primordial spirit and has a certain accelerating effect on refining the bloodline of Spirit Chickens.

It can also be used for defense and offense…”

“These are the accumulations of our sect over the generations in the area of cultivation…”

“Please accept them, my lord!”

“The God-Sealing Bell?”

As Wang Ba scanned it with his spiritual sense, he immediately sensed the Fourth-Grade Magical Treasure aura emanating from it, and even a faint trace of Class V, which stirred his heart.

He raised his hand, and the bell flew straight into his palm.

“Eh?

This magical treasure, why does it not have a True Spirit?”

Wang Ba couldn’t hide his surprise.

Ji Lan hurriedly explained,

“My lord, since the time this magical treasure was obtained from Patriarch Jiaohu, it never had a True Spirit.

However, its functions have not been affected.”

“Such a peculiar item…”

Wang Ba examined the bell in his hands with curiosity.

It’s common knowledge that magic treasures should have a True Spirit.

Unless it’s some kind of extraordinary natural treasure, even without a True Spirit, it could possess powers not attributed to a magic treasure.

But this God-Sealing Bell was clearly crafted, markedly different from the Wind Summoning Bell he had made for his second Dantian.

After thinking it over, Wang Ba did not refuse Ji Lan’s show of goodwill.

After making sure it was harmless, he promptly stored it in his Dantian.

It wasn’t because he liked the God-Sealing Bell, but rather he felt it was only right not to disregard someone else’s kind intentions.

Seeing Wang Ba accept the God-Sealing Bell and the storage treasure, Ji Lan’s heart relaxed.

A smile appeared on his face.

Offering up the God-Sealing Bell was a well-considered decision on his part.

After all, with Fanming’s primordial spirit long gone, the bell had lost much of its value.

And once he truly entered the Nascent Soul realm, even without the God-Sealing Bell, he could still lead the sect to secure a foothold among the surrounding minor sects.

It was better to give it to Wang Ba now, as a gesture of goodwill.

As the Master of a Sect, he had the decisiveness it required.

Witnessing Ji Lan’s audacity, Wang Ba pondered for a moment before taking out some Class II and Class III resources, which weren’t too rare, and tossed them to Ji Lan.

These items were basically leftovers after he picked out what was useful to him.

Ordinary in quality.

Contributing them back to the sect wouldn’t earn him much merit, but it seemed fair to offer something back to Ji Lan, especially after receiving a Fourth-Grade Magical Treasure for nothing in return.

When Ji Lan received these items, he was overjoyed.

The sect was in the midst of reconstruction, with much to be done.

Previously, due to a lack of resources, many disciples had seen the sect’s dire situation and fled.
