Beside the chair, a pot of tea was brewing on a small table, and next to it was an incense burner with a stick of incense lit.
Lin Chen settled in front of the lounge chair, the faint scent in the air instantly clearing his mind and calming his heart and mind.
Lu Yao opened his eyes and smiled, “Any progress?”
Lin Chen took a seat in an empty chair nearby, not rushing to ask questions but instead comfortably lying back and said with a laugh, “You’re living quite the leisurely life these days.”
Lu Yao smiled, “I’m old now, with fewer worries, so naturally, life is more leisurely.”
Lin Chen laughed, “Cultivators don’t really get old, with such long lives one must always look ahead.
Shouldn’t powerhouses like you be aiming beyond sainthood?”
“Saint?”
Lu Yao shook his head and laughed, “That’s not sothing one can achieve just by wanting it.
People need to understand their limits.
So things may be beautiful, but you can’t have them rely because you wish it so.
If you can’t see this point, even with an almost infinite life and great strength, you’ll still live very tiredly, even hopelessly.”
Lin Chen said with a laugh, “Old Lu, you can really see through life and death, feeling you can’t reach above sainthood, so you’ve decided to lay back like a salted fish, right?”
Lu Yao was undisturbed by Lin Chen’s teasing, “That’s not bad, right?
Peacefully growing old.
Didn’t you say that having an elder in the house is like having a treasure?”
Lin Chen laughed, “That’s indeed nice.
In fact, at heart, I am also a lazy person who just wants to live a peaceful life, more leisurely, more laid-back.
But when you’re too weak, there’s always sothing or soone that finds you and pushes you forward, and you can’t find the ti to be idle.”
Lu Yao stared at Lin Chen, “What you want is not the lethargy and leisure of hiding away in seclusion.
What you want is to have the freedom to roam the world without fear of anyone and to do what you wish without constraint…”
Lin Chen was quite surprised, “Old Lu, you understand quite well.”
Lu Yao chuckled lightly, “Who hasn’t gone through that?
Even for soone like Qin Zheng, who harbors grand ambitions and aims to be above others, most immortals are just like ordinary people, simply wanting to be stronger and more free, not to be bullied by others, simply wanting to say no to more things…”
Lin Chen agreed, “That’s the hope, but it’s not achievable, so people force themselves to go on, and that push might last until the day they die.”
Lu Yao nodded, “Yes, that’s human nature.
Ordinary people yearn to beco immortals, above immortals you have Daluo, and above Daluo you have saints.
And above the saints?
There are always stronger beings.
Do you want to beco a saint?”
Lin Chen laughed, “To say I don’t want to would be insincere.
But as you said, these aren’t things you can do just because you want to.
Let’s go with the flow.
It’s definitely right for people to strive for improvent.
Who doesn’t hope to be more formidable?
As long as you maintain a calm attitude, I think there’s no big problem.”
Lu Yao’s rocking chair gently swayed, and he leaned back lazily, “Ran into any problems?”
Lin Chen recounted the problems he had encountered, “Old Lu, you’re an Array Master.
You must be adept at Talismans as well, right?”
Lu Yao laughed, “Array Formation is indeed my area of expertise.
As for Talismans, well, I have a rudintary understanding.
There’s a big difference between the two.”
Lin Chen’s eyes widened in disappointnt, “Does that an you don’t have a solution for this problem?”
Lu Yao shook his head, “To draw a gourd like another gourd; if it’s just this issue, it’s not a big deal.”
Lin Chen’s mood rollercoastered, his face suddenly showing an expression of surprise, “Old Lu, do you have a way?”
Lu Yao rummaged through his Spatial Ring and then tossed Lin Chen a Magical Treasure that resembled an artist’s palette.
“This is the Myriad Formation Board, a Magical Treasure I made for practicing Array Formation drawing.
Once spiritual power is stimulated, this board acts like a sandbox for drawing arrays; you can treat it as if you’re really creating one.
If you fail, the light curtain will explode, and you’ll have to start over.”
“When you can perfectly draw an array on the Myriad Formation Board, then you can proceed to actual operations, to the real creation of Array Formations.
After all, Array materials are precious, especially for high-level Arrays, and if you’re not proficient and confident, creating an Array can consu countless precious materials.”
Upon hearing this, Lin Chen imdiately understood the purpose of the Myriad Formation Board; it was essentially for simulating the creation of Array Formations.
Lin Chen accepted the Myriad Formation Board and said with a laugh, “When you have ti soday, you’ll have to teach about Array Formation.”
Lu Yao indifferently replied, “Can do.
As long as you’re willing to learn.
But I must warn you, I’m quite strict when teaching, so make sure you can handle it…”
