Chapter 1182: Eighth Stage whale feast

Translator: GodBrandy Editor: Kurisu

What would Little Cai be like in the future?

Shuhang felt that ever since he gave Little Cai the daoist name ‘Virtuous Buddhist Sabersman’ and began to form karmic ties with her, her style got increasingly closer to his. It was especially so this time as she was also going to practice the ‘Huge Whale Chapter’ of the ❮Thirty-Three Divine Beasts’ Technique❯.

Song Shuhang asked, “Little Cai, have you decided on practicing the Huge Whale Chapter?”

Little Cai cutely said, “I will listen to you, Teacher. As long as it suits me, it won’t matter which one I practice.”

She was actually set on the ‘Huge Whale Chapter’.

Even if Teacher might be unreliable, Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword is definitely reliable!

After all, Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword is so powerful, if he says it’s good, then that means it’s good, Little Cai thought to herself.

Fortunately, Song Shuhang didn’t have a mind-reading technique; otherwise, he would definitely disown her.

Song Shuhang imparted the Huge Whale Chapter of the ❮Thirty-Three Divine Beasts’ Technique❯ to Little Cai by means of sound transmission. After all, it was a cultivation technique, so it was necessary that he maintain confidentiality.

He imparted Senior White’s modified version of the cultivation technique, starting from the first chapter, which was for the First Stage, and all the way until the third chapter.

Although Little Cai was already at the Third Stage Realm, now that she wanted to practice the ❮Thirty-Three Divine Beasts’ Technique❯, she would have to recultivate all the way from the first chapter.

Of course, it was only a recultivation of the cultivation technique, and she would not have to truly go back to square one and have to practice all the way back to her current realm.

She would only have to sacrifice a short amount of time to master the ❮Thirty-Three Divine Beasts’ Technique❯ and consolidate the foundations of the Huge Whale Chapter. After that, with her being in the Third Stage Realm, she would very quickly be able to practice the ❮Thirty-Three Divine Beasts’ Technique❯ to the third chapter and condense her pseudo-innate true qi.

After Song Shuhang imparted the cultivation technique, he said, “Little Cai, since you’re practicing the Huge Whale Chapter, it saves me a lot of time because I don’t have to look for the auxiliary ‘secret technique’ for you.”

The ❮Thirty-Three Divine Beasts’ Technique❯ also needed a matching ‘secret technique’ that would allow one to absorb the energy from spirit beast crystals.

The matching secret technique for the Huge Whale Chapter was the ❮Whale Swallowing Technique❯.

Song Shuhang said, “I will wait until you start practicing the cultivation technique and reach the second chapter before imparting the ❮Whale Swallowing Technique❯ to you.”

Little Cai nodded, and said, “I understand, Teacher. I will definitely strive to master the cultivation technique in the shortest time possible!”

“Very good,” said Song Shuhang.

...Honestly speaking, he was rather looking forward to Little Cai reaching the Fourth Stage. He wondered if Little Cai would also condense a ‘fat whale illusory core’ in her dantian at that time.

Was his fat whale illusory core brought about by the modifications which Senior White had done to the cultivation technique? Or could it have been brought about by the Sage Seal? This was still unclear.

As such, the confirmation of Song Shuhang’s speculations depended on whether Little Cai would condense a fat whale illusory core.

❄️❄️❄️

After the impartation was completed, Little Cai began to practice the ❮Thirty-Three Divine Beasts’ Technique❯ since the meal had yet to be served. She hoped that she would be able to reach the beginner level as fast as possible.

It might have been because she experienced what it felt for one’s lifespan to almost reach its limit, but when Little Cai found out that she had hopes of ascending to the Fourth Stage, she cherished the opportunity and practiced very hard.

The monster willow Qing Wu remained by Senior White’s cocoon, lost in thought. She was currently thinking about something... Now that she had become Sage White’s pet, would she be able to get him to give her a suitable cultivation technique?

She used to be a creature of the Netherworld, and her cultivation technique had also been of the Netherworld. However, after being seized and purified by Sage White, her original cultivation technique was no longer suitable for her.

As for Song Shuhang... he began playing on his phone once again.

He had originally wanted to practice for a while, but for the time being, he had to look after Little Cai first should any accidents happen while she attempted to change her cultivation technique to the ❮Thirty-Three Divine Beasts’ Technique❯.

As such, while he was playing with his phone, he was also monitoring Little Cai.

In the Nine Provinces Number One Group, everyone was talking about Senior White’s ascension to the Eighth Stage.

Northern River’s Loose Cultivator: “Senior White has already exited the Heavenly Tribulation Realm, right? ＠Tyrannical Saber Song One, little friend Shuhang, has Senior White returned?”

Song Shuhang: “Replying to Senior Northern River, Senior White has just come out. He is currently resting at Immortal Fairy Bie Xue’s immortal cave.”

Northern River’s Loose Cultivator: “Little friend Shuhang, are you also over at Immortal Fairy Bie Xue’s?”

Song Shuhang: “Yep.”

Frice Reckless Mad Saber: “I really envy those who can freeload food.”

Song Shuhang: “Hahahaha.”

He wanted to tell everyone that he and Senior White were going to have an ‘Eighth Stage Profound Sage-level whale feast’, but after some more thought, he felt that it would be better not to draw more hate at this moment.

A person sometimes had to remain low-key.

After chatting for a while in the group, Song Shuhang went to check his farm.

The Nine Provinces Number One Group actually still had several seniors playing this old game every day.

At the beginning, True Monarch Yellow Mountain had joked with Song Shuhang that if he was really free, he should arrange his farming ranch better. Maybe some of the seniors would come steal his vegetables and give him something in return.

Nobody had expected that Song Shuhang, who was simply a mortal at the time, would advance this much in such a short span of time. More importantly, he was getting closer and closer to the seniors in the ‘Nine Provinces Number One Group’, and the farming game was now useless to curry favors.

Nowadays, he would only go and check on this game every once in a while.

Today, he had once again opened the game to check up on his ranch.

Suddenly... He saw that there was an account that had paid a visit to his ranch about an hour ago.

“Eh? Xuan Nu Sect’s Skylark?” Song Shuhang froze.

Hadn’t Senior Skylark lost control of her body and gone back to the Netherworld Realm? How could she still have the time to go to open the game and steal his crops? Could she have... broken out of control over her and returned?

Song Shuhang quickly clicked on Senior Skylark’s account, and sent a private message. “Senior Skylark, is it really you? Are you back in the main world?”

However, Skylark did not respond.

After Song Shuhang gave it some more thought, he took a screenshot of the game’s interface and sent it to the Nine Provinces Number One Group.

Song Shuhang asked, “Seniors, did anyone see Senior Skylark go online a while ago? She seemed to be online an hour ago, has she returned to the main world?”

Northern River’s Loose Cultivator curiously said, “It seems that crop of yours that got stolen an hour ago... However, I didn’t notice Senior Skylark go online. Could she have been in invisible mode?”

Frice Reckless Mad Saber: “Well, sorry. Actually, it was me who used Senior Skylark’s account to steal from your ranch.”

Song Shuhang: “...”

Since when had Senior Thrice Reckless’ relationship with Senior Skylark become so good? He even knew her account name and password now?

Thrice Reckless Mad Saber asked, “By the way, little friend Shuhang. Have you met with that mysterious senior lately? Do you have any news about Senior Skylark?”

Song Shuhang: “I haven’t met him lately. I still haven’t gone back to the Jiangnan area.” Every time he encountered Senior White Two, he was always in the Jiangnan area.

After sending the reply, Song Shuhang tried to call out ‘Senior White~’ in his mind in an attempt to summon Senior White Two.

However, Senior White Two did not respond. It appeared that he wasn’t anywhere in the vicinity.

Thrice Reckless Mad Saber: “If you have any news, remember to tell me. If you don’t get any news in the next few days, then I’ll be heading to the Netherworld Realm.”

Song Shuhang: “Got it, I will try to contact that senior as soon as possible.”

Thrice Reckless Mad Saber’s style had suddenly changed, causing Song Shuhang to be slightly uncomfortable.

After about an hour.

The Great Northern Emperor came out of the kitchen. As he walked, he untied his apron and hung it at the side.

“We’ve made everyone wait for quite a while.” The Great Emperor smiled.

Song Shuhang raised his head, and asked, “Senior, is it finally time for dinner?”

The Great Emperor nodded, and said, “I have completed the final procedure for Fairy Bie Xue. Now we only have to wait for her to serve the food. What about Sage White?”

“He’s over here.” Song Shuhang ran to the big cocoon, extended his hand and patted it. “Senior White, get up.”

“Mmh~” Senior White’s lazy voice sounded out from the cocoon. However, after he answered, there wasn’t any other response.

Song Shuhang: “...”

Could Senior White be dawdling in bed again? No, ‘dawdling in the cocoon’ is more suitable.

Every time he slept in the cocoon, Senior White would become unwilling to get up, and it was really hard to wake him up.

This cocoon seemed to possess some magical powers—it could get such a firm hold on Senior White that it was extremely difficult to get him out.

Song Shuhang said, “Come on, Senior White, it’s almost time to eat. I’m telling you, today’s dishes are really fragrant, an Eighth Stage Sage Whale feast. If you’re late, there won’t be any left.”

“So fast?” Senior White murmured. “But I’m so sleepy, let me sleep for a while, you can all eat first... Just tell Immortal Fairy Bie Xue to save a portion for me, I’ll go and eat after I’ve had enough sleep.”

Sure enough, he was dawdling in the cocoon again.

Song Shuhang shrugged his shoulders. Alright, it looks like we’ll just have to let Senior White sleep for a while.

With the lessons that he had learned in the past, he was not going to seek death again and try to vigorously shake the giant cocoon that Senior White was in. Previously, he was crushed by that giant cocoon such that his ribs almost broke.

So this time, he decided that it was either he let Senior White wake up on his own or have someone else perform the ‘wakeup service’ instead.

After returning to his place, Song Shuhang brought Su Clan’s Sixteen and Shi out from his Inner World.

“Good morning, Senior Brother Song.” Shi rubbed her eyes.

“It’s already noon,” Song Shuhang said.

“Oh, good afternoon, Senior Brother Song,” Shi corrected herself.

Su Clan’s Sixteen was also very sleepy. After being taken out of the Inner World, she sat next to Song Shuhang. Her head tilted and she leaned on Song Shuhang’s shoulder, and she continued to sleep.

Song Shuhang tried to relax his shoulders.

Strange, why were there so many people dead asleep today?

After about five or six minutes, Immortal Fairy Bie Xue brought out a dining cart out of the kitchen.

“Is everyone here?” Immortal Fairy said. “I’m going to serve the dishes now. The first dish is [Crystal Clear Soup]. Eh? Where’s White?”

“He’s still in his cocoon,” Song Shuhang said.

Immortal Fairy Bie Xue froze. She parked her dining cart and ran to the cocoon. “Fellow Daoist White, wake up and eat.”

“Hmm~ Mmm~” Senior White responded.

“How are we supposed to wake him up?” Immortal Fairy Bie Xue asked.

...She had an entire feeding plan laid out in her mind. If White didn’t wake up, was she supposed to perform a one-person show?

Song Shuhang said, “It’s safest to wait for Senior White to wake up by himself.”

Immortal Fairy Bie Xue said, “That can’t be. The dishes would become too cold to be delicious.” After thinking for a bit, she stretched out her hands and hugged the big cocoon and shook it. “White, get up and eat~”
