Junior Uncle is too cunning.

Chapter 107 Apprenticeship

"Would you be willing to become my disciple?"

The Jade Emperor's sudden question left Li Shundao completely bewildered. How come you suddenly want to be my elder?

Confused as he was, he still had to kneel. Anyway, he didn't have a master now. He originally wanted to become an official in heaven, but now he had become the master and disciple of the Lord of Heaven. Only a fool would not do this deal.

In the primordial world, the relationship between master and disciple is comparable to that between father and son, and they might even inherit the family business in the future.

If the Jade Emperor knew what Li Shundao was thinking, he would probably slap him to death.

“Disciple Li Shundao greets Master,” Li Shundao obediently performed the three bows and nine kowtows.

When the Jade Emperor heard the name "Li Shundao," he was secretly pleased. This disciple was quite interesting; he wouldn't suffer any losses in the future.

"Get up," the Jade Emperor said, gesturing for Li Shundao to stand up.

Only then did Li Shundao dare to look up at the Jade Emperor. He had no so-called domineering aura; he was just an ordinary middle-aged Taoist priest with a long beard, who was more composed and mature than others.

"By the way, since you have already become my disciple, I will give you a general overview of our sect."

Your master is the last disciple of Hongjun Daozu and the ruler of the Heavenly Court. Above me are three senior brothers and one senior sister, who are the current three saints of Taiqing, Yuqing and Shangqing and the saint Nuwa, who are your three senior uncles and senior aunts. Your grandmaster also has two disciples under his name, who are the two saints of the West.

You also have a master's wife; you will meet her when you arrive in Heaven.

Your senior uncles and aunts do have some disciples, but you will understand when you meet them in the future. In all these countless eons, I have only ever taken you as my disciple.

……

By the way, are you now walking the path of the gods?

As Li Shundao listened to the Jade Emperor's gentle explanation, he secretly rejoiced. This time, he had truly latched onto a powerful patron. Of the seven saints in the world, one was his ancestor, and six were his senior uncles and senior masters. This was simply the strongest second-generation rich kid.

Upon hearing the Jade Emperor's question, Li Shundao nodded, "This disciple is walking the path of the God of Wealth, and that is why I possess supernatural powers."

Upon hearing Li Shundao's words, the Jade Emperor became interested and took out a primordial spiritual treasure, saying to Li Shundao, "Use it for a moment, let your master take a look."

"Uh~"

Li Shundao was speechless. What was there to try?

However, since the Jade Emperor has given such an order, and Li Shundao is so filial, he will definitely agree, and it will also help him improve his proficiency.

He took out his top-grade acquired spiritual treasure, the Treasure-Falling Coin, and gently uttered four words to the innate spiritual treasure in the Jade Emperor's hand: "Coins can communicate with the gods and attract treasures."

The Jade Emperor only felt the magical treasure in his hand move slightly before it was carried away by Li Shundao's copper coin.

With his discerning eye, he immediately recognized the true nature of the copper coin; it was nothing more than a top-grade acquired spiritual treasure.

Li Shundao's supernatural power is quite formidable, possessing a trace of the Great Dao of Cause and Effect, and also interspersed with the Great Dao of Space, making it infinitely potential.

Li Shundao held the long sword in his hand, which was inscribed with the words "Azure Lotus." It was a mid-grade innate spiritual treasure. As expected of the Lord of Heaven, he could casually take out a mid-grade innate spiritual treasure.

Li Shundao picked up the longsword and was about to return it to the Jade Emperor when he saw the other party wave his hand.

"Take this Azure Lotus Sword; consider it your apprenticeship gift from your master."

By the way, Master noticed a trace of immortal energy surrounding your body. Did you practice immortal arts before?

Upon hearing the Jade Emperor's words, Li Shundao hurriedly retrieved the Azure Lotus Sword. Apart from the Falling Treasure Coin, a top-grade innate spiritual treasure, he had no other innate spiritual treasures.

With his strength, Luo Baojinqian was somewhat afraid to show his face, but now that he had the Azure Lotus Sword, he finally had a magic weapon that he could show off.

Upon hearing the Jade Emperor's question, Li Shundao summarized Zhu Wuneng's background and Li Shundao's transformation into a cultivator, and gave the Jade Emperor a general account.

When the Jade Emperor heard that Li Shundao's true form was actually a Primordial Source Stone, his eyes lit up. You see, his true form was a Chaos Source Stone in the Purple Cloud Palace, which was fortunate enough to be enlightened by the Dao Ancestor and taken in as a disciple.

Looking at it this way, Li Shundao and I are indeed quite destined to be together, and it is only right that I take him in. However, I heard that Li Shundao was born prematurely due to the Lich Calamity, which affected his development.

He later turned to the path of divinity and finally broke through to the Golden Immortal realm several decades ago.

The Jade Emperor sighed. Although Li Shundao's life had been somewhat bumpy, he was still quite lucky to have survived the great tribulation of the Lich King and become a Golden Immortal on his own. That was truly remarkable.

You must know that in that great calamity, not to mention Golden Immortals, countless Great Luo Golden Immortals and Quasi-Saints died or were injured. Those who survived were truly fortunate.

Thinking of this, the Jade Emperor tossed a jade slip to Li Shundao, saying, "This is my 'Haotian Scripture.' You should cultivate this technique from now on and transform your divine body into an immortal body as soon as possible. Fortunately, you haven't been cultivating for long, so there's still time. After all, you belong to my lineage and belong to Taoism, so it's not appropriate for you to cultivate the divine path."

Moreover, there is no path to sainthood through divine cultivation in the primordial world. Furthermore, the karma of divine cultivation is immense; even reaching the first rank is extremely difficult, let alone the Primordial Chaos stage. It is far more prudent to pursue the Immortal Path while also pursuing the Divine Path.”

When Li Shundao heard that the path to the divine realm was blocked, his expression gradually darkened. His own conversion to cultivation was merely a backup plan left by his original self, Chen Fusheng.

After that, he followed the inherited memories of the Innate Source Stone and broke through to the third-rank godhood. It wasn't until he heard the Jade Emperor's words that he realized that the path of godhood actually ended at the first rank (quasi-saint).

Fortunately, I became the Jade Emperor's disciple today, otherwise my innate life form would have been doomed.

That makes sense, though. Of the seven people who have become saints in the primordial world, apart from the two Western Saints, the other five all followed the path of becoming saints through immortality.

He took out the jade slip, and the words "Haotian" immediately struck his mind. The entire text only had about 10,000 words, which was nearly ten times less than the 100,000-word "Yuqing Tianlu" of the Lingbao Sect.

However, with his current cultivation level, he could only read about a thousand words before he couldn't continue. He suppressed his feelings and a hint of joy flashed in his eyes.

As expected of the Jade Emperor's cultivation method, it is far superior to the Lingbao Sect's "Jade Purity Heavenly Record"... Bah, it should be said that they are not on the same level and cannot be compared.

Li Shundao carefully put away the jade slip and hurriedly bowed to the Jade Emperor, saying, "Thank you, Master."

"Well, for now, you can stay in Zhongzhou. If you need anything, just come to me. First, focus on converting your divine body to a higher level, but don't neglect your divine path either. Your divine ability is quite good; try to comprehend it properly."

I will arrange for you to become an official in Heaven. I will have Venus tell you when the time comes.

As for the matter of the God of Wealth, I will keep it quiet for you. When you see your Senior Sister Bixiao in the future, don't let her know; that girl has a dangerous personality.

The Jade Emperor gave a few instructions and then left. Li Shundao was left out of the Jade Emperor's world and stood in the private room again.

Hua Jian stood still and saw Li Shundao open his eyes. A hint of envy flashed in his eyes as he congratulated Li Shundao, saying, "Congratulations, fellow Daoist, on finding a renowned master."

Li Shundao returned the greeting, saying with deep gratitude, "I owe it all to your introduction, fellow Daoist; otherwise, I would not have had such good fortune."

After parting ways with Hua Jian, Li Shundao returned to his courtyard. This time, becoming the Jade Emperor's disciple was a stroke of genius. Not only did he instantly become a direct descendant of Taoism, but he also gained a powerful backer.

This gave him more confidence in the upcoming Investiture of the Gods. He would be a member of the three religions from now on, and as the Jade Emperor's only disciple, he didn't believe anyone would dare to put him on the list.

However, the necessary preparations still need to be made. After all, he has made it ashore, but he also needs to make some plans for his main body, Chen Fusheng, Lingyu Daolin, and others.

Taking out the God of Wealth Seal, I felt a bit of a headache. Plans really can't keep up with changes. I was on the verge of life and death when I was trying to switch to this method. After all that trouble, now I have to go back to the original method.

However, the path of the God of Wealth cannot be abandoned. Although the path to sainthood is blocked, it is still a quasi-saintly path that leads to heaven.

After thinking about it, I decided to keep it for now and deal with it later.

Taking out the jade slip given to him by the Jade Emperor, Li Shundao once again entered a state of enlightenment. His main goal now was to first cultivate the path to immortality.
