Cultivation Starting from Full Talent-Chapter 160 - 158: Pupil Technique
Chapter 160: Chapter 158: Pupil Technique
In the evening, Ning Daoran inquired about today’s major events at the Xiyu Pavilion from a Foundation Establishment Junior Brother from the Outer Sect, who described it vividly.
Not long ago, a young Foundation Establishment Cultivator came to Yellow Dragon Square.
This person was named Dong Yu, a True Inheritor of the Jiuyun Sect, under the apprenticeship of a Late-stage Golden Core Jiuyun Shangren.
It was said that at the age of four, Dong Yu was found to possess a First Grade Ice Spirit Root, and entered Late-stage Qi Refining at age ten, becoming the youngest True Disciple of the Jiuyun Sect.
He successfully established his Foundation at fifteen, participated in the great Sect competition, defeated the Mid-stage Foundation Establishment elder brother, and became the chief True Disciple of the Jiuyun Sect.
At the age of twenty, he reached Mid-stage Foundation Establishment and was immensely appreciated by his Mistress.
At forty-five, he entered Late-stage Foundation Establishment, crushed a Third-tier Early-stage Jiao Dragon single-handedly, stunning the entire Cultivation World of Kuizhou!
Now, at the age of fifty-five, Dong Yu was but a step away from Core Formation and had become the most acclaimed disciple among the younger generation of the Jiuyun Sect, greatly relied upon by the Supreme Elder.
It was said that Dong Yu had a very good relationship with Master Du Ye.
Hearing that Master Du Ye died in a Secret Realm, Dong Yu personally led more than ten Jiuyun Sect Foundation Establishment Cultivators from Kuizhou, heading west to accuse Xiyu Pavilion!
In Xiyu Pavilion, a Golden Core Early Stage Minister Elder, Master Honglu, couldn’t stop him!
On the streets of Yellow Dragon Square, after a breathtaking Fight Technique, not only was Master Honglu no match for the Late-stage Foundation Establishment Dong Yu, but he was even forcibly slain by him!
Moreover, Dong Yu conducted the killing right under the eyes of a Zhang surnamed Foundation Establishment of the Chaotic Sect, stationed at Wind Stopping Tower.
Subsequently, under the pretext of compensating for losses suffered by the Jiuyun Sect, he looted Xiyu Pavilion, abducting Lady Xingtong and Fairy Yun Lan among others!
Fortunately, Chen Ping’er had been out buying materials and thus narrowly escaped the catastrophe.
Who could have thought that the greatly thriving Xiyu Pavilion could be wiped out in an instant, and even a Golden Core Minister Elder was slain, which was simply unbelievable.
Ning Daoran called it absurd, unable to imagine such an event actually occurring under the mountain of the Chaotic Sect.
After nightfall, the Zhang surnamed Foundation Establishment guarding Wind Stopping Tower was recalled by Gongyang Yan.
It was said that Gongyang Yan’s face turned red with rage, scolding the Zhang surnamed Foundation Establishment for an entire two hours, harshly reprimanding him from his mother to his ancestors’ Daoist couples with all manner of foul language, none repeated.
Yellow Dragon Square was the business territory of the Chaotic Sect, protected by them.
Considering such an incident, the Elder in charge of Wind Stopping Tower truly could not shirk his responsibility.
However, it could also be understood that Dong Yu was a distinguished young talent, even capable of defeating Golden Cores; how could a Mid-stage Foundation Establishment of the Chaotic Sect named Zhang possibly stop him?
Even if he controlled a Second-order Array, the chances of victory would not be great.
Ning Daoran and the Junior Foundation Establishment Brother sighed over it before each returning to their homes.
…
Deep into the night, at Qiongbi Peak.
“Patter~~ Patter~~~”
A Sound Transmission Talisman fluttered around like a moth inside the Small Cloud Mist Array.
After Ning Daoran picked it up, the voice of Chen Ping’er came from within, “Fellow Daoist Ning, can you see me? Ping’er seeks an audience.”
It ended up happening.
During the day, Chen Ping’er was out and evaded disaster. Now, having returned to Xiyu Pavilion, she must have learned about everything.
“Fellow Daoist Chen, please come.”
“Okay!”
Soon after, Chen Ping’er, dressed in a long green dress, entered the small courtyard.
Ning Daoran casually activated the Small Cloud Mist Array, set up a prohibition, and sat opposite Chen Ping’er, asking, “Is it about Xiyu Pavilion?”
“Indeed!”
Chen Ping’er frowned and said, “I just learned that Jiuyun Sect’s people did not immediately return to Kuizhou with Lady Xingtong and Fairy Yun Lan among others. Tonight, they are staying at an inn outside Guangling City, only five hundred miles from here.”
“So, what do you want to do?”
“Fellow Daoist Ning.”
Chen Ping’er’s expression was more serious than ever, “I know that your cultivation is not as simple as it appears on the surface. I only ask that you could make a move, to rescue Lady Xingtong, Fairy Yun Lan, and others from the hands of Jiuyun Sect’s people%”
“That’s asking too much of me, Ning Daoran.”
“Fellow Daoist.”
Chen Ping’er bit her silver teeth, “If you are willing to make a move, whether success is guaranteed or not, your humble servant is willing to entrust everything to you, and in addition, there’s this item as thanks.”
With that, she took out an artifact from her Storage Bag.
It was a scroll engraved with deep blue Spirit Jade, detailing an extremely rare Cultivation Technique.
“Ding dong!”
Ning Daoran scanned it closely, and the system automatically recorded it.
[Grey Eyes Technique. Earth-grade Lower (Uninitialized)]
…
It was a Pupil Technique!
Ning Daoran was ecstatic inside; he had always been missing a Pupil Technique!
However, Pupil Techniques were extremely rare in the Eastern Wasteland Cultivation World, and he had never even seen one at Xiyu Pavilion before.
It was probably also because Ning Daoran had once asked Chen Ping’er if there were any Pupil Techniques available, and now, in a critical moment, she took out this extremely rare technique.
He gently pushed his hand, returning the Jade Scroll.
“Fellow Daoist Chen, please take back your treasure, I am not the kind of person you think I am.”
“Fellow Daoist!”
Chen Ping’er became anxious, her eyes brimming with tears, “Really not possible?”
“No.”
Ning Daoran shook his head, “Not to hide it from you, dear Fellow Daoist, I indeed have concealed some of my cultivation, but… Dong Yu can kill across grades, up to Golden Core level. How can I rescue them? It’s like sending myself to death.
Since you have this Grey Eyes Technique, why not visit Sister Jiang Yu at Purple Cloud Peak? Maybe she will be willing to help.”
Chen Ping’er smiled bitterly, “With my status, Fellow Daoist, do you think I am qualified to meet Sect Leader Jiang?”
She had a point.
Ning Daoran bit down and refused to let go, leaving Chen Ping’er with no choice but to reluctantly return.
…
“Should I help with this matter?”
Ning Daoran furrowed his brow.
Dong Yu, being a True Disciple of the Jiuyun Sect, had crossed states to annihilate the Xiyu Pavilion at the foot of the Chaotic Sect’s mountain, even slaying a Golden Core. In essence, this was a slap in the face to the Chaotic Sect.
Moreover, he had ultimately learned an Earth Rank Pupil Technique from Chen Ping’er!
There was no need to think, this Pupil Technique had never been seen before and must have been the guarded treasure of Xiyu Pavilion, which Chen Ping’er had been compelled to bring out under duress.
To take another’s favor lightly would seem too ungrateful.
If he took advantage of others’ generosity and pretended as if nothing had happened, it would be easy to become narrow-minded. How could he continue to cultivate then?
Given this, he decided to strike a blow while ensuring his own safety!
After all, Ning Daoran found Dong Yu quite detestable.
So young, yet so aggressively ambitious, daring to kill a Golden Core even though he was sixty or seventy years younger than Ning Daoran. Did he really think he was the protagonist?
In a word, this youth must not be left unchecked!
Inside the Spirit Garden Cave Heaven.
Ning Daoran re-crafted two Class A Paperfolk, one a fat cultivator with a bulging belly, the other a thin cultivator holding a fortune-telling banner.
He equipped both with several magic artifacts.
“Listen well,” he commanded solemnly, seated upright, “If you can kill Dong Yu, do so; if not, it matters not. Just don’t expose my involvement.
Whether you succeed or fail, self-destruct immediately after completing the task.”
The two Paperfolk nodded, their faces resolute.
Thus, Ning Daoran used Earth Escape and left, releasing them in the woods outside the sect.
Whether they could accomplish the task was not important; he had done his best.
Logically, two Class A Paperfolk possessing forty percent of his strength, when equipped with several magic artifacts, stood a chance of assassinating that so-called prodigy in a surprise attack.
…
Having nothing else to do.
Within the Spirit Garden Cave Heaven, the autumn breeze was gentle, and Ning Daoran glanced at his Refining Time, which still had a full eleven thousand years remaining.
Just cultivating the Evergreen Technique would not be enough, but refining the Pupil Technique was possible.
His heart slightly exhilarated, he would be able to develop his Pupil Technique to perfection and perhaps then, could open the heavenly eye to see the mortal world!
He quickly sat down cross-legged and channeled his Refining Time into the Pupil Technique, causing his eyes to suddenly become bright and spirited.

[Opening your eyes with the Pupil Technique, you saw a beautiful woman with a snake’s body, and with a shout, you drew your sword and slew her!]
[Grey Eyes Technique—Earth-grade Lower (Perfect)]
…
“Phew…”
Ning Daoran took a deep breath.
As he slowly opened his eyes, he discovered that he could see everything around him clearly.
Even merely at a glance, he could see the very bones and blood vessels of the nearby Big Stupid Deer.
Such were the profound mysteries of the Pupil Technique!
