Druid in the Xianxia world

Chapter 53 Promotion is imminent
The serious Zhong Cang asked Shuang Lingxue to open her folding fan and chuckled softly. Then, she waved her hands repeatedly and said, "Mr. Zhong Cang, there is no need to be so kind. I am just a little confused about the Cloud Chanting Technique and would like to ask for your help and guidance."

This is indeed an easy job for Zhong Cang.

"That's easy. Do you need any guidance now? If so, let's go to Huangni Village now..."

"Mr. Zhong Cang, there's no need to be so anxious. I have something else to do this afternoon." Shuang Lingxue smiled mysteriously and said, "Hehe, come to think of it, this matter is related to Mr. Zhong Cang. Please don't be surprised when we meet tomorrow."

After saying that, Shuang Lingxue left first.

Although he was a little concerned about Shuang Lingxue's last mysterious smile and words, since she didn't say anything, Zhong Cang didn't guess too much. Instead, he smiled and shook his head, then returned to Huangni Village with a group of followers.

However, he left, but the huge storm caused by the vast white clouds he summoned with a thought has not yet dissipated, but has just begun to ferment.

"So powerful..."

"We were wrong. We were all wrong."

Some people lamented, some sighed, some worried, and some remained stubborn.

"Humph, even if he has powerful magic now, so what? He is a spiritual plant husband. There are no strong people in this profession. His development prospects are completely incomparable to ours!"

This view was quite popular in Yunmoxinhu before.

Not to mention the cultivators with first-class and second-class spiritual roots, even some cultivators with third-class spiritual roots looked down on Zhong Cang with this view, thinking that he was inferior to themselves.

But, the past is the past, and the present is the present.

If someone said this before, he would get a lot of people to agree with him, but now, after that person put forward such a view, there was suddenly a large circle of people around him.

——No one wants to be associated with such an idiot.

Someone even sighed and said, "A true genius won't be bound by his profession."

With just one spell, Zhong Cang conquered countless people.

At this time, some people even felt that Zhong Cang and Shuang Lingxue being together was not a toad wanting to eat swan flesh, but a perfect match made in heaven because of their talent and beauty.

"Now that I think about it, Miss Shuang is indeed the eldest daughter of a powerful family with a rich and profound background. When we didn't see anything clearly, she saw Zhong Cang's talent and potential at a glance."

"Zhong Cang is indeed very talented, but it is still difficult for him to marry Shuang Lingxue... The Shuangxue clan is too noble and attaches great importance to the purity of bloodline."

"I can't refute it, especially since the Shuang family is not in a good situation right now..."

……

Zhong Cang was unaware of what others were saying. After returning to Huangni Village, Zhong Cang first went to the third-level spiritual field where Tess was and absorbed the wood-type spiritual energy she had refined.

Zhong Cang stopped practicing until his meridians were swollen and painful, but he did not rest. Instead, he ran to the barren mountains and planted saplings.

What made Zhong Cang's heart pound was that even these days, in order to sense the spiritual energy and practice, his followers could not devote themselves to planting trees.

However, the cultivation over the past few days has brought his experience value to 1500 points this afternoon.

This also means that tonight, he will be promoted to a level 5 druid.

"In the game I play, professional levels five, ten, fifteen, and twenty are all thresholds."

"Among them, levels 1 to 4 are called elementary professionals, levels 5 to 9 are intermediate professionals, and from level 10 onwards are called advanced professionals. Levels 15 to 19 are top professionals, or in other words, masters."

Great Knight, Great Mage, Great Swordsman, Master Monk, Weapon Master...these are all honorific titles of level fifteen.

Level 20 is legendary.

Although, because the energy levels and development directions of the worlds are different, the legends of other worlds may not be as powerful and comprehensive as the Dharmakāya level of this world.

But no matter what, every level five is a qualitative change. Tonight, Zhong Cang will experience a qualitative change.

Especially when he thought that he had not just undergone an ordinary qualitative change, but would also take up the hidden profession of tree shepherd at the same time as being promoted to level five, this made Zhong Cang even more excited.

"I don't know what skills I can acquire after taking on a hidden profession."

Excited, nervous, and expectant, this is Zhong Cang's mood.

It took a long time, even using the resonant sound of the Dao, for Zhong Cang to calm down.

After his mind became clear and the sky gradually darkened, Zhong Cang did not advance, but... went to the Taoist temple again and rushed towards Luo Laodao's home.

Druids can advance at any time, but opportunities to learn free spells are rare. Zhong Cang does not want to miss this opportunity.

Then, at Luo Laodao's house, Zhong Cang saw Shuang Lingxue, Qi Wei, Chang Quan, Zuo He, Jin Cheng...all the slightly more outstanding disciples of Yun Mo Xinhu came to Luo Laodao's house.

Seeing so many people coming over made Zhong Cang speechless, and his face turned red.

"You're being too sentimental. I thought this teaching was just for me..."

Just when Zhong Cang was feeling a little embarrassed, he discovered that Qi Wei and Chang Quan opposite him were even more embarrassed.

As for Shuang Lingxue, she saw Zhong Cang and chuckled softly as she came over. "Mr. Zhong Cang, don't be embarrassed. We are the ones who are embarrassed... You were taught the secret method because of fate and reward earned through your strength, while we lack talent and have spent a lot of money to get the opportunity to learn... Mr. Zhong Cang is different from us."

"Forehead……"

Knowing that others were paying to learn magic, Zhong Cang's mood really improved a lot.

But soon, he thought of something, shook his head and laughed. "Master Luo's plan worked. He first used the Cloud Crane to attract our attention, and then taught us the Cloud Chanting Technique 'for free.' Once we learn it, unless we're short of money or our spell attributes don't match, we'll most likely learn the subsequent spells... I didn't expect that the world of cultivation also has a 'trial and error' marketing strategy."

He sighed in his heart, but because he didn't spend any money, Zhong Cang didn't feel too much resentment.

After nodding to a few people, Zhong Cang stood beside Shuang Lingxue, talking to her while waiting for Robende to arrive.

They didn't have to wait too long. Soon, the immortal-looking Robende came in from outside with a broken white cloud wall using the magic of controlling objects.

Behind him were two children and a young girl.

What made Zhong Cang raise his eyebrows was that the girl was an acquaintance of his.

'Yaxin? Why is she here?'

He was shocked, but he didn't say anything.

On the other side, Taoist Luo first put the white jade disc aside, then he called the two children, a boy and a girl, over and asked them to greet Zhong Cang and the others.

"Lingling, Changsheng, come quickly and meet your senior brothers and sisters."

"Yes, Grandpa."

"Hello, Senior Brother, Hello, Senior Sister..."

It is obvious that Luo Laodao is paving the way for his descendants and expanding his network of contacts.

Because they wanted to learn something from him, everyone gave him face and greeted the two children.

Zhong Cang understood even more why Taoist Luo was so greedy for money.

"Having offspring to raise, his expenses will indeed be countless..."
