Incredible Insight: Cultivating Immortality at Eight, Astonishing Zhang Sanfeng

Chapter 24 – The Rewards of Teaching

As they watched the various phenomena unfolding before them due to Ning Changge’s lecture, the third-generation disciples of Wudang were collectively awestruck. Unable to contain themselves, they knelt down and paid their respects. These scenes were truly astonishing.

“Junior Uncle Master … Could he really be the reincarnation of a true immortal?”

“When he was explaining the dharma just now, did you feel the constant changes in the Yin and Yang energies before your eyes?”

“What? You felt it too?”

“Wow! I thought I was the only one with extraordinary talent, but now it seems that it’s all thanks to Junior Uncle Master’s incredible abilities that we can directly touch the essence of Yin and Yang, allowing us to break through in the Lesser Infinite Technique!”

“So that’s how it is. I wondered why I felt like I was having a moment of enlightenment during today’s lecture. It turns out it’s all thanks to Junior Uncle Master!”

…

The disciples whispered among themselves, and then the murmurs grew into a clamor.

Admiring and reverent gazes were cast upon Ning Changge. At this moment, Ning Changge stood on the Spirit Grass Formation, exuding a serene and ethereal aura, making people couldn’t help but admire him.

The disciples thought back to the lectures given by other senior martial uncles and martial aunts in the past. In comparison to Ning Changge’s lecture, the others seemed somewhat inadequate. Although they had their merits, there was no comparison, and no harm meant by that.

They were increasingly amazed by Junior Uncle Master’s extraordinary abilities. Ever since the day Ning Changge caused celestial phenomena when he left seclusion, Wudang seemed to have changed.

After the initial shock wore off, the disciples cherished this rare opportunity even more. Who knew when Junior Uncle Master would lecture again? They listened even more attentively.

What they didn’t know was that at this moment, Ning Changge was reaping enormous benefits as well.

…

[You have gained a deeper understanding of the essence of Yin and Yang by teaching your disciples. Your Yin Yang Great Grinding and Tempering Cultivation Technique has improved, and its effectiveness has been enhanced!]

…

[By continuously exploring the concepts of Yin and Yang, you have gained a unique understanding of the power of the sun, moon, and stars. Your Celestial Spirit Forging Art has advanced, and its effects have been enhanced!]

…

[You have evolved Yin and Yang to water and fire, comprehending the interplay and conflict of water and fire. You have created the Immortal Art of Spiritual Fire, Spiritual Rain, and Furious Firestorm!]

…

[By using spiritual energy to explain martial arts for an extended period, your spiritual energy unintentionally leaked out and guided the growth of weeds. You have realized the life force within the Eternal Verdant Art, creating the Verdant Wood Vitalization Technique!]

…

Ning Changge was completely immersed in his world of enlightenment. The lecture to the disciples became instinctual as he continued to experience revelations. At first, he was somewhat puzzled, but then it became clear to him.

In reality, this was closely related to his extensive accumulation of knowledge of Dao scriptures over the years. With his profound knowledge as a foundation, this lecture became an opportunity for him to unleash all of his depth.

He never expected that a single lecture would lead to so many enlightenments.

Not knowing how much time had passed, Ning Changge gradually dissipated the profound sounds of the Dao, slowly opening his eyes. He saw the disciples prostrate themselves, their eyes filled with fervor and admiration.

“Thank you, Junior Uncle Master, for imparting us dharma!”

Ning Changge sensed that the disciples had all made significant breakthroughs in their strength, and he nodded slightly in satisfaction.

“Today’s lecture ends here,” he announced.

With that, he soared into the sky and rode the wind away, maintaining his elegant and carefree demeanor. He left behind a trail of worshipful gazes.

Ning Changge didn’t say whether he would lecture again next time, and the disciples didn’t dare ask. Even though they were eager for more, they didn’t dare to press for it. This experience taught Ning Changge the importance of letting things flow naturally and fate.

He chose to let nature take it’s course.

The disciples, still not satisfied, watched the white cranes and clouds that gradually followed him into the distance. They sighed and then glanced at the Spirit Grass Formation still hovering three meters above the ground. A respected disciple among them said, “We should inform our senior martial uncles and martial aunts. This place where the lecture took place is an imprint left by Junior Uncle Master. We must protect it!”

Everyone nodded in agreement.

…

Back in the scripture chamber after his lecture, Ning Changge gradually calmed his emotions. A smile appeared naturally on his lips.

The gains from this lecture were unexpectedly bountiful. However, he knew that such things had to happen naturally. It was precisely because he had no expectations before that he gained so much now.

With this realization, his understanding of destiny and karma deepened, elevating his state of mind to a new level. He understood that cultivating immortality was not just about cultivating overwhelming spiritual energy; it was also about cultivating a transcendent state of mind.

“All these techniques are just means to unleash the power of spiritual energy. Both defensive and offensive techniques are necessary. This lecture has filled many gaps in my knowledge.”

Several previously created techniques saw a simultaneous improvement in their effects.

He also created several new techniques, which elevated his personal combat strength. Especially the recently comprehended Spiritual Fire Technique, which could assist in alchemy and refining, made Ning Changge feel that he was about to create a weapon refining technique.

Gradually calming his emotions, Ning Changge gazed at the revolving sky and looked towards the depths of Wudang.

There, Zhang Sanfeng was in seclusion, and Ning Changge could sense that his master’s vitality was growing stronger, but there was no possibility of him coming out of seclusion for the time being.

“When Master comes out of seclusion and learns that I’ve achieved in finding immortality, he will surely be very happy.”

Ning Changge held the Dao scriptures in his hands, a smile appearing on his lips.

…

Several days later, at the entrance to Wudang Mountain.

Song Yuanqiao and the others looked at the familiar Tianzhu Peak (Peak of Great Purity), the courtyard, and the buildings with joyful expressions.

“We’ve finally returned!”

After settling the follow-up matters, they couldn’t wait to return to Wudang. They rushed back from Mount Song as quickly as possible.

The disciples guarding the mountain gate were a bit puzzled. They saw the disciples behind Song Yuanqiao and the others carrying bags as if they had just returned from a raid.

Especially the last two, carrying a black-red giant stone about the height of a person, seemed to be struggling against their load.

It was worth noting that these two were Innate realm masters, their strength was abundant with the support of innate internal energy, and yet, the giant stone appeared extremely heavy.

“We pay our respects to Senior Martial Uncles!”

The gatekeepers hurriedly bowed.

Song Yuanqiao waved his hand and said with a smile, “Changsong, everything has been going well in the sect lately, right? It seems like your cultivation has improved; you haven’t been slacking off during this time, have you? Good, good!”

The disciple known as Changsong quickly replied, “In response to Senior Martial Uncle, everything in the sect is going well! Not only me, but also the other junior disciples have made progress in their cultivation. We are looking forward to Senior Martial Uncle checking our progress!”

There was a hint of pride on his face.

This made Song Yuanqiao and the others curious.

Soon, the third-generation disciples were summoned.

Seeing that the disciples had all risen by a small realm, the Seven Heroes of Wudang were left dumbfounded.

What was going on? Did the disciples take some kind of elixir while they were away?

Song Qingshu stepped forward respectfully and explained, “Father, it’s all thanks to Junior Uncle Master …”

As he elaborated, the Seven Heroes of Wudang stood there dumbfounded. Their eyes were filled with amazement.

A single lecture had caused over a hundred people to break through their realms!

Moreover, numerous astonishing phenomena had occurred.

Several people walked towards the martial arts square and saw the naturally formed spirit grass formation, which had an indescribable artistic conception. It seemed as if an immortal had once descended here, causing even the weeds and creatures to willingly attract towards it.

Song Yuanqiao and the others exclaimed in unison, “Indeed, it’s our junior martial brother. He always manages to achieve such astonishing feats!” They held deep admiration for Ning Changge.

“Disciples, listen up. From now on, this spirit grass formation belongs exclusively to Changge, and no one, including us, is allowed to approach or touch it!” Song Yuanqiao declared loudly. In his view, only his junior martial brother was qualified to sit in this formation; they, as well as everyone else, were unworthy.

The disciples responded in unison, “We obey your command!”

Song Yuanqiao took a deep breath, lifted the large black-red boulder, and smiled at Yu Daiyan and the others. “Let’s go, we’re going to find our junior martial brother and deliver these things to him!”
