Chapter 8 - Fruit

Zhao Kang casually picked several bodhi fruits, then gently brushed over the Bodhi Divine Tree's branches.

The Bodhi Divine Tree seemed flattered, like a pet being caressed by its owner, and couldn't help but sway twice.

Li Qingyi had originally been detailing the confusions in her heart.

But suddenly, she was caught off guard and shocked by her master's next actions.

She saw Zhao Kang casually wave his hand and actually manifest a small, elegant pavilion beside the Bodhi Divine Tree, complete with tables and chairs.

After he leisurely sat down, he gently beckoned to the dazed Li Qingyi, signaling her to come closer.

Only then did Li Qingyi come back to her senses and hurriedly move her jade-like long legs, walking forward.

Drawing close to her master's side, she bent down, about to listen to his teachings.

In her heart, she became even more uncertain about her master's strength.

Such divine abilities to create objects from nothing—could this really be achieved by worldly martial artists?

Could Master have already transcended mortality and become a saint, actually being a reclusive immortal?!

"No need to be so formal. Sit down, let's chat while tasting bodhi fruits."

Seeing his disciple like this, Zhao Kang couldn't help but shake his head and smile wryly.

Such respectful formality between master and disciple would make future interactions inconvenient—that wasn't what Zhao Kang wanted to see.

"Yes, Master!"

Li Qingyi didn't decline and respectfully sat across from him, like a student in a private school.

However, warmth surged in her heart—it turned out that Master not only had unfathomable cultivation but was also so approachable!

"You're... forget it, you'll gradually get used to it in the future."

"Continue speaking."

Witnessing his disciple being overly formal, Zhao Kang felt somewhat helpless.

But he also understood that such changes couldn't happen overnight, so he let nature take its course.

As Li Qingyi continued to voice her cultivation doubts, Zhao Kang originally wanted to personally fetch water to wash the bodhi fruits.

But Li Qingyi obediently took over the bodhi fruits and proactively did the work.

Zhao Kang naturally enjoyed this treatment—with a disciple to serve him, why should he do it himself? Being a master was indeed pleasant!

The moment she touched the bodhi fruits, Li Qingyi immediately felt refreshingly cool throughout her body, mysteriously wonderful.

However, having witnessed too many strange things at her master's place, she didn't investigate deeply.

After all her doubts were expressed, the bodhi fruits were also washed clean.

"Mm, Qingyi, watch carefully. Your master will demonstrate once for you."

After hearing his disciple's questions about meridian circulation difficulties in cultivation, Zhao Kang felt that direct demonstration would be more effective than verbal explanation.

Previously, he truly couldn't teach, as he hadn't practiced before.

However, after Li Qingyi comprehended the first chapter of the Primordial Sword Manual, Zhao Kang had received the system reward of perfect mastery of the Primordial Sword Manual.

Now, these problems were child's play to him!

Hearing this, Li Qingyi was slightly stunned.

Having practiced the Primordial Sword Manual, she knew well that this manual had many restrictions.

Only sword cultivators could practice this manual, and the Innate Formless Sword Body was especially compatible with it.

She hadn't expected that Master was also proficient in this technique?

That's right—Master was so deeply unfathomable, there probably wasn't anything he didn't know!

So she dismissed all distracting thoughts and focused intently on watching her master demonstrate the technique.

Until Zhao Kang completely demonstrated the first chapter of the Primordial Sword Manual once.

Li Qingyi felt as if she had received enlightenment, and her previous confusions instantly vanished!

Although a few minor doubts remained, with just a little contemplation she would surely be able to resolve them!

"This disciple bows in gratitude for Master's transmission of the dao!"

She immediately stood up and deeply bowed to her master.

"Did you see clearly?"

"Are there any other unclear points?"

Zhao Kang gently waved his hand for her to sit down, concernedly asking whether her cultivation difficulties had been resolved.

After all, he hoped for his disciple to break through realms early so he could also harvest more rewards.

His disciple's cultivation absolutely couldn't have any problems!

"After watching Master's demonstration just now, this disciple's doubts have been mostly resolved."

"For the remaining parts, this disciple believes that with a little pondering, they can be answered soon."

Hearing her master's inquiry, she quickly responded.

"I see..."

"That's simple. Come... eat bodhi fruits. Eating these has enormous benefits."

Zhao Kang murmured softly, his gaze turning to the washed bodhi fruits on the table.

Just now he had been focused on demonstrating the technique and had forgotten to taste this innate divine object.

Thinking of the bodhi fruits' effects, Zhao Kang's eyes immediately lit up.

"Yes, Master!"

Li Qingyi first stood up and respectfully offered a bodhi fruit to her master, then took one for herself.

"Mm, indeed not bad. From now on, the task of picking and washing bodhi fruits is yours."

Zhao Kang said with a smile.

"Being able to pick and wash bodhi fruits for Master is this disciple's fortune and honor."

Li Qingyi responded with a sweet smile.

Then, under her master's gaze, she gently bit into the bodhi fruit in her hand.

As the flesh slid down her throat, Li Qingyi's eyes suddenly widened!

Then she closed her eyes to regulate her breathing—she had actually directly entered the bodhi enlightenment state!

About the time it takes to burn one incense stick passed before she slowly opened her eyes.

"This, this fruit can actually induce enlightenment?!"

Li Qingyi was amazed, her small mouth slightly agape as she stared at the bodhi fruit in her hand with complete disbelief.

All martial artists in the world yearned to possess the rare opportunity to enter the bodhi enlightenment state.

Even though she was a prodigy among the young generation of the Anluo Imperial Dynasty, she had never entered the bodhi enlightenment state!

Obviously, this miraculous bodhi fruit was undoubtedly a priceless treasure!
