My Master Knows It All-Chapter 2338 - 489: Enlightenment

Capítulo 2338: Chapter 489: Enlightenment

Cao Zhen looked at the demeanor of the Wen Family’s Ancestral Elder and whispered, “You may speak freely about his situation. Since I have promised Immortal Lord Yan Hua to take him as my disciple, I will certainly do so.”

The Wen Family’s Ancestral Elder received Cao Zhen’s assurance and then spoke, “Shuhua has been too rebellious; perhaps this is our fault. We have found many teachers for him to teach him the path of calligraphy and painting, but he says they are unworthy to be his teachers.

Furthermore, he likes to be alone, staying in his room to study the way of calligraphy and painting, seldom cultivating. He has yet to achieve inner core formation.”

“Not achieving inner core formation is actually beneficial; this way, it will be easier when I teach him.” Cao Zhen raised his hand and pointed outward, saying, “Let’s go, take me to see him. Meanwhile, you can inform your family that I am an old friend of Yan Hua and have come to deliver resources at his request.”

“Yes, thank you, Sect Leader of Hundred Peaks!”

The Wen Family’s Ancestral Elder understood that the Hundred Peaks Sect Leader did this to reassure the members of the Wen Family.

Soon, the two left the hall and, under the guidance of the Wen Family’s Ancestral Elder, reached a house built in a secluded place in the mountains.

This house appeared quite simple, with a fence outside. On the wooden gate in the middle of the fence were written two large characters – “Humble Abode!”

Cao Zhen looked at these two characters, nodded slightly, and praised, “These characters are indeed good. I’ve seen many cultivators in the way of calligraphy and painting, and not to mention those who haven’t formed their core, but even those who have reached the Earth Immortal Realm in the way of calligraphy and painting, their characters are not as good as these two. Just these two characters reveal his spirituality.

However, there is an issue with these characters; they are too constrained. This constraint doesn’t conflict with his spirituality but stems from his limited knowledge.”

No sooner had Cao Zhen finished speaking when a dissatisfied voice rang out from the room.

“Who are you, to dare evaluate my writing!”

With the voice, a disheveled young man forcefully pushed open the door and strode out, looking angrily at them.

Upon hearing the voice, the Wen Family’s Ancestral Elder’s expression changed dramatically and he immediately shouted, “Insolent! This person is a friend of our Wen Family’s Ancestor, and he is an Immortal Lord of the True Immortal Realm!”

Though Sect Leader Cao had personally declared he would take Wen Shuhua as a disciple, Wen Shuhua was too disrespectful, leaving a poor impression on Sect Leader Cao. Who knows if Sect Leader Cao might merely take him as a disciple without teaching him much?

Moreover, his disheveled appearance is really…

Upon hearing that the person in front of him was a True Immortal, Wen Shuhua was visibly stunned but his face still showed defiance. Even if he’s in the True Immortal Realm, so what? While he acknowledged that cultivating to the True Immortal Realm definitely makes someone outstanding, being adept in cultivation doesn’t prove one understands calligraphy.

Cao Zhen saw Wen Shuhua’s expression and immediately laughed, “Defiant, are you?”

He looked up at the simple gate and suddenly reached out into the void beside him. Instantly, a branch fell into his hand. Then, with a leap, he flew to the top of the gate and briskly waved his hand over it.

In just the span of two breaths, he had come back down to the ground, and on the gate, two new characters appeared.

Humble Abode!

Though these were the same two characters, compared side by side with the previous ones carved on the gate, they seemed like completely different characters. It gave the impression that these were the real representations of written language, whereas the earlier “Humble Abode” characters looked like they were scribbled by a child, awkward and inappropriate!

The Wen Family’s Ancestral Elder was utterly stunned. Though their family was steeped in the way of calligraphy and painting, and he was knowledgeable too, the words by Sect Leader Cao seemed perfect and without flaws.

And this was merely what Sect Leader Cao wrote casually. How would it be if he wrote seriously?

Opposite, Wen Shuhua gazed up at the newly appeared “Humble Abode” characters, completely dazed. In the next instant, a radiant aura shot up from within him, occupying the void.

Enlightenment!

Wen Shuhua reached enlightenment!

The Wen Family’s Ancestral Elder watched Wen Shuhua in enlightenment and sighed inwardly. He had seen these two characters like Wen Shuhua, but only felt they were perfect, whereas Wen Shuhua attained enlightenment.

Indeed, just like what the Old Ancestor Yan Hua said, Wen Shuhua is the one with the best talent in their family.

Now, with Sect Leader Cao witnessing Wen Shuhua’s enlightenment, he would likely value Wen Shuhua even more.

Within the Wen Family, each clan disciple who saw the sudden flash of radiant aura was equally surprised.

“Did someone reach enlightenment?”

“That place seems to be where Wen Shuhua resides?”

“Did Wen Shuhua reach enlightenment?”

“I saw the Ancestor and another person going to see Wen Shuhua earlier; it must have been because of the Ancestor that Wen Shuhua reached enlightenment!”

“Though Wen Shuhua is exceptionally talented, he does not treasure it and does not cultivate diligently, nor does he heed others’ teachings!”

“How did he attain enlightenment? What good is reaching enlightenment when he doesn’t even cultivate!”

After the initial surprise, everyone sighed one after another.

On the mountain, Wen Shuhua quickly awakened from enlightenment and gave a long bow toward Cao Zhen, “Thank you, senior. Indeed, you are qualified to evaluate my writing. My characters are not worth retaining!”
