Longevity Martial Arts: Starting from Inner Core Skill

Chapter 1130: Chapter 36: Operation of the Source Pen_2

He was still marveling at his cleverness, obtaining exactly what he truly desired without lifting a finger.

Little did he know, everything was already destined.

After he left, the vendor also disappeared without anyone noticing, just like when the vendor had arrived.

Afterward, everything went smoothly, and the Source Pen was activated.

Liang Guang held the Source Pen, unable to suppress his excitement: “This Secret Treasure is beyond imagination. I actually have such a fortuitous opportunity to write my own destiny. If used well, anything is possible, even revenge is no difficult task…”

For someone in the Third Realm to refine such a Secret Treasure as the Source Pen is naturally impossible.

The information he had acquired was entirely placed by Wang Sheng.

Of course, the Source Pen was already extremely special, and it could be used even without refinement.

Liang Guang quickly digested all the information on the Source Pen and began to strategize on how to use it.

“According to the information provided by the Source Pen, altering destiny comes with corresponding tribulations. The greater the changes, the more terrifying the tribulations. In this case, for the first modification, I can’t be too greedy. I must think carefully about how to gain benefits without a certain death.”

He did not take the tribulations to heart.

Most fortuitous opportunities come with risks.

As long as it wasn’t unbearable, it was within an acceptable range.

After a night’s decision, Liang Guang finally used the Source Pen.

“Obtain a precious medicine to boost cultivation, limited within the Third Realm…”

He used the Source Pen to alter his destiny. Though it seemed complicated, in essence, everything was confined to the Third Realm, not even seeking a Secret Treasure to break through to the Fourth Realm, displaying extreme calmness.

Wang Sheng observed everything from the shadows.

“Has he started using it? Not greedy… perhaps he can go far.”

“Indeed, he wasn’t the wrong choice. He should be able to be experimented on for a long time.”

After a bit of thought, Liang Guang finished modifying his future destiny developments.

However, he did not put away the Source Pen. Instead, he stood where he was, pondering for a moment, and finally added another stroke.

“Obtain a precious medicine capable of healing the Sect Leader’s wounds, limited within the Third Realm.”

After writing this sentence, he let out a long sigh of relief.

“The Sect Leader’s kindness cannot go unrewarded. However, the Sect Leader’s original strength is certainly not simple. Common herbs are likely of little use. Writing down powerful herbs might bring tribulations I can’t withstand, but this should suffice for now. Even temporary relief is good.”

The fact that the Sect Leader of the Lifeless Martial Arts School had injuries was no secret.

If healed, he could not only repay the kindness but also gain a strong ally. That’s why he added this sentence.

After finishing, he concluded with a “Complete” character.

The power of the Source Pen activated and began altering destiny.

“Repayment?” Wang Sheng chuckled slightly, saying nothing more.

He then fully utilized his immortal energy, starting to observe the Source Pen and Liang Guang.

“Destiny is beginning to change. There will definitely be changes with the Source Pen and Liang Guang. It’s just unknown if I can observe it. If I could directly comprehend the great path within, that would be best…”

He chose for his true form to descend, to observe most clearly.

Time passed.

The ruins near Whale Fall City opened.

The cultivation civilization on Floating Light Star now is built upon the remnants of the past civilization. Each opening of the ruins is a “feast.”

The top powerhouses all emerge from the ruins.

Thus, cultivators from all directions eagerly rushed into the ruins.

Liang Guang, unhurried, followed a team that matched his strength into the ruins, and then began searching for treasures.

A while later, he gazed at a cluster of peculiar fiery red vegetation before him, his heart stirred.

“Flame Grass!”

Flame Grass wasn’t particularly rare, just a common resource that was easily purchasable.

His true excitement stemmed from the fact that the first treasure he obtained, as modified in his destiny using the Source Pen, was Flame Grass.

Now that Flame Grass had appeared, it indicated the Source Pen indeed had effect.

“If that’s the case, the subsequent treasures can all be obtained!”

He cautiously collected the Flame Grass and continued forward.

But not long after, he was attacked by a Second Realm ferocious beast.

Subsequently, through various “fortuitous coincidences,” he obtained a lot of resources.

All of these resources were “selected” with the Source Pen, perfectly aligning with his path of progress.

However, after each gain, he would encounter an attack.

All of this, naturally, was also observed by Wang Sheng.

“Such a complex fluctuation of fortune… ordinary beings simply couldn’t have this; it must be due to external influences.”

Under the observation of his true self, it was easy to spot the anomaly on Liang Guang.

“Since entering the relics, Liang Guang’s fortune has been fluctuating wildly. If I said it wasn’t influenced by the Source Pen, I wouldn’t believe it. But can the Source Pen only achieve this much?”

“If that’s all it can do, I’ll be very disappointed.”

Altering destiny and altering fortune are completely different.

Merely changing one’s fortune to obtain treasures or encounter disasters is something he could do, without even expending much effort.

“It can’t be that simple. Otherwise, I wouldn’t be unable to see through the Source Pen in such a short time, and neither would Xuan Yuan have failed to discover it for millions of years. Is the user’s cultivation too low?”

Wang Sheng continued to observe for a period of time.

The Source Pen still behaved the same as before, and Liang Guang’s fortune continued to fluctuate, gaining treasures and encountering disasters.

However, as the observation time lengthened, he did discover a clue.

“That’s not right. The reason for such performance is that the Source Pen modifies destiny through such means at the Third Realm…”

Who says fortune isn’t a type of destiny?

“It seems I’ll have to stay on the Floating Light Star for quite some time…”

Eventually, Liang Guang successfully emerged from the relic.

He didn’t partake in the fight for the best treasures, so despite facing many dangers, he managed to come out alive.

And compared to Third Realm cultivators of the same level, his gains might not be the greatest, but they were definitely the most suitable for enhancing his cultivation.

After all, this was planned by his own hand.

After coming out, he found Wang Sheng.

“Sect Leader, this is some healing medicinal herb I accidentally found. It might be of use to you.”

Wang Sheng looked at the herb, which to him was merely a weed, and finally sighed slowly, saying, “I appreciate the thought, but you don’t need to do this. My injuries are very complicated, with basically no hope of treatment. Focus on your own safety.”

Fortunately, when Liang Guang altered destiny, he added restrictive conditions, setting the healing medicine’s limit at the Third Realm.

Without this limitation, if it were aimed at him and the Source Pen really realized it, Liang Guang might be hit by a meteor as soon as he stepped out.

Misfortunes related to the Thirteen Realms, even if not fully manifest, are not something a mere Third Realm could withstand.

However, this gave Wang Sheng another experimental idea.

“Perhaps after this is over, I can try something…”

After leaving the herb, Liang Guang directly departed and used the herb for cultivation.

After that, he frequently used the Source Pen to alter his destiny.

Every time relics opened, he would find a way to enter and use the Source Pen to obtain resources for himself.

And every time, he would bring back healing medicine for Wang Sheng, better each time.

In the blink of an eye, thirty years passed.

Though careful in modifying destiny, Liang Guang still advanced from the Third Realm to the Fifth Realm in thirty years, without progressing on any planet.

This speed would be remarkable even among forces possessing a Saint Emperor.

Such speed attracted the attention of interested parties.

Advancing from the Third Realm to the Fifth Realm in thirty years is too astonishing for a planet just experiencing a revival of spiritual energy.

Initially, it was fine until Liang Guang obtained an astonishing treasure from the relics.

Things exploded instantly, and countless powerful cultivators focused on him, knowing his cultivation pace.

To obtain treasures, these cultivators resorted to any means.

Some forces discovered the connection between Liang Guang and the Lifeless Martial Arts School.

“Isn’t he quite concerned about that sect leader? Then capture that person and see if he will return.”

“It’s said that the sect leader was also a powerful cultivator, at least Fifth Realm before being injured.”

“Hah, what threat can an injured Fifth Realm pose? Send three Fifth Realm cultivators to capture him.” Sixth Realm enters the scene.

“What if he doesn’t come back?”

“Then we lose nothing. Besides, spread the word; we might not even need to send people to find his trail. The treasure will be ours!”

In a short time, many cultivators knew that there were forces in the shadows using the Lifeless Martial Arts School’s sect leader to threaten Liang Guang, forcing him to hand over the treasure.

Such methods are very contemptible.

But no one stood up.

Clearly, a consensus had been reached. Some forces wouldn’t act directly but wouldn’t mind adding fuel to the fire.

Naturally, Liang Guang, hiding in the shadows, learned about this.

After some hesitation, he ultimately chose to hurry back to Whale Fall City.

A great battle seemed imminent.

Meanwhile, Wang Sheng continued to teach the apprentices as usual.

“It’s been a long time since I felt the threat of Fifth and Sixth Realms…”
