Chapter 602: Chapter 602: Music, Chess, Calligraphy, and Painting? It’s Better to Play Music and Sing.
After leaving the tower, Liú Yānlán also had a bit of a headache.
This new junior brother is truly not an easy one to handle.
If he had taken things step by step, those pills would have already been enough for him to reach the Soul Nurturing Realm.
However, this guy, in order to progress quickly, started a wasteful cultivation style, as if he were swallowing pills non-stop.
If he continues cultivating this way, when his level rises, the whole sect won't be able to contain him.
Compared to Táng Yú's extravagance, the single pill she gave him evokes mixed feelings.
What worries her is that this guy is cultivating too quickly, fearing that, if he keeps going like this, he might lose the firm foundation of his cultivation and that, upon reaching a high level, internal demons will destroy him.
What pleases her is that a pill a day is something that, on the whole continent, has almost never been heard of.
If it were another cultivator, even with the same resources, starting from scratch and reaching the Golden Core Realm in a single day would be absolutely impossible.
"It is a blessing for our sect."
She murmured softly, and then Liú Yānlán moved her spirit to seal the news of Táng Yú's progress.
The tallest tree is always brought down by the wind.
She has to protect this great tree well, one that could protect the entire sect in the future, before Táng Yú fully grows.
When Liú Yānlán left, Táng Yú looked at the empty bottles on the ground and didn't feel that he had been so wasteful.
In his previous world, pills were something that were never lacking.
He had already acquired the habit of using them quickly, and he couldn't change it right away.
However, at this moment, he felt a bit puzzled.
After all, he had finally reached the Golden Core Realm, but why couldn't he still see the face of the Senior Sister?
After rummaging through his pockets, Táng Yú couldn't help but sigh, wishing he had some heart incense.
Maybe he could see what the Senior Sister looked like in his dreams.
Not that he had bad intentions.
This guy was just very curious.
He was like a handsome boy who enjoys reading novels, with a spirit of exploration and a thirst for knowledge.
He was curious to see if the girls had correct characters on their thighs. He was intrigued whether they had moles on their chests and what that mole meant.
"Do I have to go learn music, chess, calligraphy, and painting tomorrow?"
Thinking about the Senior Sister's warnings before leaving, Táng Yú felt a little frustrated.
He wasn't interested in music, chess, calligraphy, or painting.
"Learn what? Better to learn to play, sing, dance, and play instruments."
He smiled lewdly, then stood up to stretch, went out, and called Xiao Róu to chat for a while, asking her about the music, chess, calligraphy, and painting classes.
When the next day arrived, Xiao Róu arrived on time to find Táng Yú.
"Master, it's time to go, today we need to go to the Academy of the Four Arts."
"I'm coming, I'm coming."
After leaving the room, Táng Yú jumped onto Xiao Róu's flying jade treasure and hugged her from behind.
"Master…" When Táng Yú hugged her like that, Xiao Róu blushed and softly cried out.
"I'm a little afraid of heights, don't mind me." Táng Yú smiled and reassured her.
"But you're already a cultivator of the Golden Pill stage... Can't you fly by yourself?"
Xiao Róu could feel Táng Yú's warm breath on her neck.
It made her feel a little uncomfortable, as if it was tickling her.
"Ah? Well, I'm a bit shy. If it's not necessary, I don't fly in the air." Táng Yú sighed.
Xiao Róu couldn't say anything, but couldn't help but ask.
"Master, how did you manage to reach the Golden Core Realm in a single day? I've been cultivating for many years and am still stuck at the end of the Qi Refining stage."
"That's easy."
Táng Yú opened the storage ring to take out a pill to give her.
However, he spent quite a while trying to take the pill out, until he remembered that the Senior Sister had placed a seal on the storage ring.
Now he couldn't touch the pills.
So he took out a small palm-sized sword and handed it to Xiao Róu.
"I originally wanted to give you a pill, but my sister placed a seal on the ring, so I'm giving you this as a substitute."
Now the pills in the storage ring couldn't move.
But he still had more than forty magical artifacts.
They were gifts from the Senior Sister and the sect's elders.
Xiao Róu almost fell off the flying treasure when she saw the artifact Táng Yú handed her.
She quickly handed it back to him and said, "Master, this is too valuable, I can't accept it."
She hadn't even imagined that Táng Yú would immediately give her such a valuable flying sword.
For cultivators, magical artifacts come in different grades of quality.
Magic tools, spiritual artifacts, magical treasures, ancient treasures, and spiritual treasures.
Someone in her Qi Refining Realm like her only had two magic tools: the jade brooch under her feet and an offensive artifact.
Her parents, who are in the Golden Dan stage, only have two magical treasures, which amounts to most of their lifetime savings.
How could she dare accept such valuable items?
"If I tell you to take it, take it! What are you waiting for? I have a bunch of these things."
If it weren't for the fact that she is young and hasn't fully developed,
Táng Yú would have already stuffed it into her clothes.
Don't misunderstand me, it's not lust, it's that he's a person who doesn't forget his roots and always remembers the traditional Chinese virtue of giving red envelopes.
Where he puts it? Is that important? No, it's not.
The important thing is the intention for the other person to accept the gift.
After several tugs between them,
Xiao Róu, with tears in her eyes from emotion, accepted the flying sword magical treasure that Táng Yú gave her.
When both arrived at the Academy of the Four Arts,
Many disciples of the Hehuan Sect were already there, learning the Four Arts.
For the disciples of the Hehuan Sect, the Four Arts are a compulsory subject.
This is related to the path of dual cultivation of the soul fusion in the Hehuan Sect.
What is soul fusion?
Through the arts of common interest, the spiritual compatibility between both is demonstrated, thus reaching the state of soul fusion.
For this reason, music, chess, calligraphy, and painting become compulsory subjects.
As long as the disciples, both male and female, can achieve harmony in these arts,
They can begin the path of dual cultivation.
From that moment on, cultivation becomes much more effective by complementing Yin and Yang, and later, they will inevitably reach the Yuanying stage.
"Master, master, I'm going to learn music. If you need anything, let me know."
After greeting Táng Yú, Xiao Róu began to run quickly.
However, she didn't rush to go to the music academy.
Instead, she sought out a quiet spot and took out the flying sword magical treasure that Táng Yú had given her.
Like a child excitedly opening a red envelope from their relatives during the New Year.
After holding it in her hands, she excitedly observed it carefully for a good while before silently returning to practice music.
Right now, her level isn't enough.
She plans to wait until she reaches the Foundation stage to refine this magical treasure.
The Academy of the Four Arts is divided into four branches: music, chess, calligraphy, and painting.
Although she isn't very interested in these things,
That doesn't mean Táng Yú isn't an expert in them.
After thinking about it for a bit, Táng Yú headed towards the painting academy.
When he entered,
There were already more than thirty disciples in the painting academy, learning how to paint.
Additionally, there was an elderly man with white hair who was teaching painting.
The elderly man was at the Qi Refining stage.
But due to his painting skills, he managed to join the Hehuan Sect and became the master of the painting academy.
When the disciples saw Táng Yú arriving, they all greeted him enthusiastically.
"Hello, Master master."
Compared to the day before when they saw Táng Yú,
Now, in their eyes, there was more respect and reverence.
The legend of the Golden Pill Day will likely be passed down for thousands of years in the Hehuan Sect.
Who knows if this Master master will reach the Golden Core Realm in just a few days?
"Continue painting, you don't need to worry about me."
Táng Yú, smiling, waved to everyone and then walked among them as if he were a test supervisor.
All the paintings they were working on were ancient paintings.
The content consisted of landscapes, flowers and birds, or human figures.
And all were ink paintings.
The elderly man who was teaching painting also greeted Táng Yú before continuing to teach a disciple.
"Painting primarily focuses on ink, colors are secondary. The meaning must go beyond the painting, there must be poetry in the painting and painting in the poetry..."
Táng Yú nodded slightly upon hearing the elderly man's words.
However, he wasn't very interested in the ancient paintings.
His gaze shifted, and Táng Yú focused on a girl with long legs.
The girl was sitting by the window, concentrating on her painting.
She was painting the landscape visible from the window.
Outside the window, there was a large lotus pond, with blooming lotus flowers and colorful koi swimming in the water.
Some celestial cranes perched on the lotus leaves, observing the koi, while several beautiful female disciples played by the pond.
The painting was truly impressive.
The girl, sitting, had long white hair that almost touched the ground.
Because her legs were so long.
Her posture when placing her feet seemed a bit uncomfortable.
Beside her were several male disciples of the Hehuan Sect who were also painting.
They were also painting the scenery of the lotus pond.
Clearly, they were trying to find a connection with the girl through the painting.
If they succeed, wouldn't it be like finding a cultivation partner?
