The Tao is far away

Chapter 16 The Old Man in the Soul-Nourishing Tree

When he returned home, Wang Chi looked at the empty house and felt mixed emotions. However, the dead are gone and the living must move on.

He took out the bag given by Carpenter Wang and counted it. It was full of talismans, pills, magical instruments and other things.

Unfortunately, Carpenter Wang had not taught him the art of talismans and elixirs. The reason was that Wang Chi's aptitude was too poor. It took him three years to complete the Four Extremes, so he had not learned the art of talismans and elixirs.

"Hey, what is this?" Wang Chi saw a familiar object. It was the piece of soul-nourishing wood that he had cut down three years ago.

Carpenter Wang really left everything to him.

When I picked up the soul-nourishing wood, I suddenly felt a sense of comfort all over my body. It is worthy of the name of soul-nourishing wood!

Suddenly, the Soul-Nourishing Tree emitted bursts of green light. Wang Chi hastily threw it aside, but the Soul-Nourishing Tree actually floated up on its own, and a voice came out from it: "Hahaha, young man, do you want to be unrivaled in the world?"

Wang Chi was startled by the voice and shouted, "Who are you? Why are you hiding in this soul-nourishing tree?"

After Wang Chi finished speaking, several green rays emanated from the soul-nourishing tree and intertwined with each other. After a while, a real and unreal human figure appeared.

The man was an old man with snow-white hair tied up together, wearing a green robe, with bright eyes, and exuding a powerful aura from his whole body.

The old man stroked his beard and said to Wang Chi: "Boy, I couldn't save your master. I was helpless."

"What?" Wang Chi was extremely puzzled.

"Your master's foundation has been badly damaged. I can only nourish him for two years at most."

"That bamboo is not actually a soul-nourishing tree. It is because I live in it that it has the effect of nourishing the soul."

Wang Chi pondered these words in his heart, not knowing whether they were true or false: "Since my master has left, you don't have to stay in this bamboo anymore, leave quickly!"

When the man saw Wang Chi coming down to order him to leave, he was not angry. He smiled and said to Wang Chi: "Boy, don't you want to enter the Qi Refining Stage?"

Wang Chi was stunned after hearing this. In fact, he was indifferent to cultivation. No matter whether he was refining Qi or building the foundation, what did it have to do with him?

In the past three years since he came here through time travel, he has missed his parents all the time and thought that this was just a dream. However, every day when he wakes up, what he encounters is extremely real.

So he planned to go down the mountain, get married and live out his life when he grew up.

"My master left me some elixirs, so please don't worry about it."

The man laughed, thinking that this boy was young but had a lot of ideas: "Boy, you know that you only have three spiritual roots. Relying on those pills is just a drop in the bucket!"

"Since you know that I am not qualified, and I also know that I am not qualified, I will not bother you." Wang Chi felt more and more that this person had other thoughts.

"Besides, this is the first time I meet you, and you are so considerate of me, which is a bit..." Wang Chi said bluntly.

The man narrowed his eyes for a moment, sighed, and said helplessly: "I actually want to ask you for help."

"Help? What help? I am just an ordinary person now!"

"Help me find a body. As you can see, I am just a soul now." The man stretched out his hand and looked at his body.

Wang Chi was horrified. Could this man be trying to take over my body? What a mess he was in. First there was Carpenter Wang, and now there is this Old Deng.

"Senior, are you going to take over my body?"

After hearing this, the man laughed out loud: "Seizing someone's body? If I wanted to seize someone's body, I would have done it a long time ago. Why wait until now? I've already seized someone's body once!"

"If you can't, what's the point of looking for a body?"

"I have another secret method, but I need to find someone with a strong mind."

Wang Chi remembered that Carpenter Wang had also said that his spiritual power was powerful, but Carpenter Wang only mentioned it once in these three years.

"And you are this person!"
