Falling short of the highest rank! The mysterious and powerful Ancient Body Technique, in Wu Xiuluo’s mouth, is evaluated just like this, leaving Lin Tian speechless. Cultivating the body is inferior, is cultivating the soul superior?

"Regardless if it’s Buddhism, Taoism, Ancient Martial, exorcism, all these involve body cultivation. In Senior Sister Xiuluo’s eyes, are they all inferior?" Lin Tian retorted.

Wu Xiuluo’s expression remained indifferent, not commenting on Lin Tian’s question, but instead said something peculiar: "In the current world, no matter how one cultivates the body, there will come the day when the body withers and dies. How to seek eternity?"

"Within the Five Elements, who can truly achieve eternity?" Lin Tian shrugged his lips. Only he has the qualification to speak these words, then he waved his hand: "Let’s not talk about superiority or inferiority; help me look at Luoxi."

Wu Xiuluo also didn’t intend to dwell on the issue, and turned to Ning Luoxi: "Please extend your hand."

Ning Luoxi frowned slightly, looking at Lin Tian. She couldn’t see through Wu Xiuluo, and was not fond of the previous evaluation by Wu Xiuluo. Of course, she wouldn’t just extend her hand straight away.

"Don’t worry, Senior Sister Xiuluo means no harm." Lin Tian explained; he could hear it, Wu Xiuluo’s previous evaluation carried no malice.

While Ning Luoxi could not trust Wu Xiuluo completely, she did trust Lin Tian, so without much to say, she extended her hand to Wu Xiuluo.

Wu Xiuluo also extended her hand, placing her fingers on Ning Luoxi’s palm, and then the golden light appeared again. Upon seeing the golden light, Ning Luoxi’s gaze flickered slightly. In the past, whenever foreign energy approached, her body would instinctively defend.

However, she couldn’t feel any hint of danger, and her body did not activate defensive mechanisms, allowing the golden light to envelop her palm.

Pure, vast—this was her perception of the golden light energy. Ning Luoxi couldn’t help but re-assess Wu Xiuluo, yet she still saw nothing.

Wu Xiuluo lightly closed her eyes, as if sensing something. Suddenly, she opened her eyes abruptly, and her previously calm gaze fluctuated intensely, her complexion changing as well.

This was the first time Lin Tian had seen Wu Xiuluo react so intensely since knowing her.

"Senior Sister Xiu Luo, how is Sister Luoxi?" Xiao Manxuan also noticed Wu Xiuluo’s strange reaction and hurriedly asked.

"Demon..." Wu Xiuluo opened her mouth to speak, but suddenly regained her composure, stopping the words.

Lin Tian frowned: "Demon what?"

Wu Xiuluo shook her head, but her expression soon returned to its usual calm state: "Nothing, just the first time I’ve seen such domineering energy."

"Just that?" Lin Tian stared at her, puzzled. Wu Xiuluo’s expression change seemed far from simple.

But Lin Tian couldn’t glean anything from her eyes; the earlier incident seemed like a minor ripple, and after it passed, returned to an eternal calm.

"What do you seek my assistance with?" Wu Xiuluo didn’t answer Lin Tian directly, but instead asked his intentions again.

Lin Tian and Ning Luoxi exchanged a glance, knowing Wu Xiuluo had certainly seen something but was unwilling to disclose it. If she chose not to speak, Lin Tian could do nothing about it.

"Luoxi is cultivating an incomplete technique, unable to fully control the energy within her, facing a constant risk of losing control. We want your help to see if there is a solution." Lin Tian stated succinctly.

"An incomplete technique?" Wu Xiuluo’s gaze shifted slightly, and Lin Tian seemed to see her let out a subtle sigh of relief, though uncertain of the reason.

Relieved that Ning Luoxi still had hope? Or was it due to other reasons? Perhaps related to the "demon" she mentioned?

"Wu Xiuluo, how is my cousin? Can she be treated? Previously, she used Blue Snake Grass to suppress it for a time, but the Blue Snake Grass is nearly depleted. I fear for the future..." Ning Wenbin was also very anxious, though she feared her cousin’s training, familial affection was genuine.

"Blue Snake Grass? Show it to me." Wu Xiuluo was puzzled for a moment, then looked at Ning Luoxi.

Ning Luoxi took out a glass bottle, which contained the blue liquid, and handed it to Wu Xiuluo.

Wu Xiuluo examined it closely before returning it to Ning Luoxi: "Indeed, it’s Blue Snake Grass, and it has been refined very purely. Whose handiwork is this?"

Ning Luoxi hesitated, unsure if she should disclose it, as it was Lin Tian’s secret, but Lin Tian indifferently said: "I refined it."

"Are you a pharmacist?" Wu Xiuluo asked again.

"Sort of, a beginner pharmacist." Lin Tian was unsure of her question’s intent, but admitted openly, thinking since Wu Xiuluo was not an ordinary person and for a united front, it was alright for her to know.

Wu Xiuluo was visibly surprised for the second time that day, but she quickly returned to her calm demeanor, Lin Tian had to admire her strong mind.

"As a pharmacist, you should realize that her problem cannot be cured with mere medicine, unless you can concoct the legendary advanced elixir." Wu Xiuluo affirmed.

Lin Tian spread his hands, looking quite helpless: "You know, a beginner pharmacist can’t possibly create advanced elixirs, which is why I’ve come to you for help."

"Yes, Senior Sister Xiuluo, don’t you have any other methods?" Xiao Manxuan asked anxiously.

Wu Xiuluo pondered for a moment, then sighed slightly, shaking her head, then nodding, leaving Lin Tian and the others puzzled. With both the shake and nod, was it possible or not?

"To completely resolve it, there are two methods." Wu Xiuluo clarified, and Lin Tian and the others rejoiced, but before that joy could last, Wu Xiuluo continued: "One is to disperse all energy and live as a normal person..."

"This method is off the table; I won’t choose it." Before Wu Xiuluo finished, Ning Luoxi made her stance clear, refusing to disperse her energy.

Wu Xiuluo seemed to have anticipated her reaction, expression unchanged, and continued: "The second is to find the remaining cultivation technique..."

"This..." Ning Wenbin wanted to say, what kind of method is that, but considering his dream goddess was opposite, his words stayed half on his lips. In reality, this is also what Lin Tian was thinking; if it could be found, they wouldn’t have come to her.

The four expressed disappointment, Wu Xiuluo contemplated briefly and continued: "I know you’re disappointed, but I still advise against searching for the missing cultivation technique."

"Actually, there is another method that can preserve her strength and solve the current problem." Wu Xiuluo said surprisingly.

Lin Tian was speechless, thinking I know you’re unhurried, but can’t you get to the point? The four looked at her, hoping it was a genuine solution.

"You misunderstood my words, I simply said retain strength, but it doesn’t mean she can still cultivate her own technique. Have her follow my cultivation, gradually transform the energy within, in the end, the strength remains, just not the cultivation technique. She can only cultivate mine."

Wu Xiuluo glanced at the four and lightly explained.
