Senior Liao's Little Class is Starting

After the third loud clap of thunder, the rain that had been holding back all day finally began to fall.

Large raindrops suddenly pattered down upon this small village.

The raindrops smashed against the lush green trees, beating the leaves until they scattered all over the ground; they also hit the country paths, splashing mud onto the wild grasses and flowers by the roadside; and they battered the roofs of every household, washing away the slight heat of early summer.

Accompanied by this torrential rain, the villagers of Xiushui Village fell into a sweet sleep in the night.

Many of them dreamed of the upcoming harvest.

The entire dream was a brilliant golden color.

Early the next morning, when the first wisp of cooking smoke curled upward in Xiushui Village, the rain had not stopped; it was still pouring vigorously.

Seeing this, the young men in the village were very happy.

This was not only because the rain would allow the crops to plump up nicely, but also because the heavy rain meant they did not have to work in the fields. They could stay at home and rest, enjoying a rare moment of leisure warming the bed with their wives and children.

However, the older generation, looking at the sky still densely covered with dark clouds without a single ray of sunlight, felt a faint sense of worry in their hearts.

Although the timing of this rain was quite good, if it rained too much, this good thing would turn sour.

They were afraid that the rain would fall without end and cause a flood, which would be troublesome.

But they had no good solutions. They could only stay at home and pray to the heavens to spare them a livelihood, hoping the rain would not go overboard.

This rain, however, did not block the path of cultivation for the people of the Lingxian Sect. Without even using umbrellas, everyone braved the rain and went up the mountain.

Only Liu Shengsheng and Lin Ying, being young girls, were given oiled paper umbrellas by their families.

For some unknown reason today, Liao Pantu actually came to the cultivation room as well.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Liao Pantu nodded to them and said:

Today I will stay here with you all. If you have any questions you do not understand regarding your cultivation, you can come and ask me.

Hearing this, everyone was overjoyed.

Everyone in the sect knew that his true body was a Nascent Soul cultivator. Although they were not exactly sure how strong that was, just hearing Lin Xiao say that after Qi Refining was Foundation Establishment, after Foundation Establishment was Golden Core, and after Golden Core was Nascent Soul, and that each stage was divided into early, middle, and late phases, everyone felt that this senior must be incredibly powerful.

Not to mention, Lin Xiao had previously secretly told everyone that Senior Liao was over five hundred years old.

Over five hundred years old!

That would be equivalent to the combined age of six or seven Patriarch Hu!

Only Mo Yuanjiao and Mo Que knew roughly what kind of existence a Nascent Soul cultivator was.

This was at the level of a sect master of the three major sects!

Furthermore, it was said that the old sect master of the Shangyang Sect, who had a Nascent Soul cultivation base, had been in secluded cultivation for ten years without showing his face, and the current new sect master was only at the late Golden Core stage.

Yet, such an existence was actually just an elder in the Lingxian Sect...

Lin Xiao, looking at the excited expression on Mo Yuanjiao's face, knew that he must be overthinking things again.

It seemed he had to find an opportunity to explain things clearly to him, otherwise this misunderstanding would only grow bigger.

As for whether he would leave or stay after the explanation, that would be up to fate.

In short, he felt that letting this kid continue to misunderstand like this was not a solution.

Thus, the learning atmosphere in the cultivation room today was extremely intense.

Everyone came over one after another to ask Liao Pantu all sorts of questions.

Liao Pantu refused no one, patiently explaining their questions one by one.

As a result, everyone felt that even though Senior Liao rarely came out on normal days, had little interaction with everyone, and looked a bit scary, he was actually a very good person.

Liao Pantu had been studying the Taoyuan Wankong Art behind closed doors for all these days just for this purpose.

Since he had decided to develop together with the Lingxian Sect, he wanted to do something himself.

However, in terms of contributing money, not only did he feel that Lin Xiao did not seem to lack it, but his current soul body did not actually have many good things left.

Moreover, it would be highly inappropriate for him to give these things out directly.

The development of a sect should proceed step by step. If he directly provided everything, he worried that the sect would be like a poor man suddenly getting rich, straying from the right path and losing its original intentions.

After thinking it over, he felt that answering questions and clearing up confusion for everyone was perhaps the most suitable thing for him to do at present.

Therefore, he had recently been secretly studying the Taoyuan Wankong Art, the mental cultivation method practiced by the most people in the entire sect.

As for the Heaven Rank low-grade Benyuan Heart Sutra, it was not that Liao Pantu did not want to read it, but rather that he had not had the time yet.

After all, to answer questions for others, he believed that he basically had to thoroughly understand at least the first part of this mental cultivation method up to the Golden Core stage before he could reach the level of clearing up people's confusion.

So recently, he had been repeatedly studying and verifying it, until yesterday when he roughly understood the Golden Core portion, which was why he appeared in the cultivation room today.

Furthermore, through studying the Taoyuan Wankong Art, Liao Pantu had somewhat understood the essence of how the Lingxian Sect's mental cultivation methods did not rely on spiritual roots.

Therefore, even though he had not carefully read the Benyuan Heart Sutra yet, some basic concepts were interconnected. Thus, regarding the cultivation problems of everyone who was still in the Qi Refining stage, he could use his hundreds of years of accumulated experience to provide answers.

Even Lin Xiao, listening from the side, benefited greatly.

Mo Yuanjiao was even more highly focused, sitting beside Senior Liao and listening attentively, looking as if he swore not to miss a single word or sentence Senior Liao said.

For a time, the entire cultivation room was like a small lecture hall of knowledge.

A morning passed. Although everyone did not spend much time actually cultivating today, many of their cultivation questions were answered. Many concepts they had not understood well in the past became as clear as if the clouds had been parted.

By noon, the rain outside was still pouring down, showing a trend of growing heavier without the slightest intention of stopping.

Thus, after noon, the crowd did not move about freely as they usually did, but coincidentally all stayed in the cultivation room to continue practicing.

After having Liao Pantu, a Nascent Soul cultivator, sort things out for them, everyone felt that their cultivation speed had become much faster.

By evening, Liu Yunan and Mo Yuanjiao even achieved direct breakthroughs, advancing to the fifth layer of Qi Refining and the second layer of Qi Refining, respectively!

Seeing this, the rest of the crowd began to cultivate with burning enthusiasm.

Little did they know that in Xiushui Village, families in lower-lying areas had already put on coir raincoats and started sweeping water out of their courtyards.

Some people picked up hoes from their homes and dug small drainage ditches in their courtyards, just to drain the accumulated water out as much as possible.
