Chapter 540 Li Ming

"Perhaps this is what he calls 'luck'."

Ye Changsheng drove the flying boat, turned into a stream of light, and flew towards the direction of Qingfeng Town.

Qingfeng Town is located in a remote area with thin spiritual energy and is far less prosperous than Holy Peak City.

Viewed from the air, the town is surrounded by mountains and rivers, with well-proportioned houses and smoke curling up from cooking fires, exuding a tranquil and peaceful atmosphere.

Landing outside the town, Ye Changsheng put away the airship and walked into the town on foot.

Most of the residents in the town were simple mortals. When they saw the monks arriving, they all cast curious glances, but they did not show too much surprise or fear. They were obviously used to seeing the monks who occasionally passed by.

Ye Changsheng quickly found the home where Li Ming lived according to the address on the jade slip.

It was a dilapidated adobe house with some firewood piled in the yard, which looked a bit messy.

A middle-aged woman with a haggard face was mending clothes in the yard. When she saw a stranger coming, she had a puzzled look on her face.

"Excuse me, is this Li Ming's home?"

Ye Changsheng asked in a gentle tone.

The middle-aged woman put down the needle and thread in her hand and looked at Ye Changsheng. Seeing that he was unusually dressed and calm in temperament, not like an ordinary person, she cautiously replied: "Yes, this is it. You are..."

"I am a traveling monk. I heard that there is a child named Li Ming here, so I came here to have a look."

Ye Changsheng explained.

A trace of caution flashed in the middle-aged woman's eyes, but she still said politely: "I will be grazing cattle in the back mountains tomorrow and I haven't come back yet."

"It's okay, I can wait for him here for a while."

Ye Changsheng said with a smile.

The middle-aged woman hesitated for a moment, then finally nodded and invited Ye Changsheng into the simple house.

The room was simply furnished, with only an old wooden table and a few stools, and some farm tools stacked in the corner.

Ye Changsheng chatted with the middle-aged woman and asked some indirect questions about Li Ming.

I learned that although Li Ming is young, he is very sensible. In addition to helping to herd cattle, he also does some housework within his ability.

Li Ming has always regarded that "strange stone" as a treasure and never left it.

About an hour later, a thin figure appeared at the entrance of the courtyard.

It was a boy of about eight years old, with dark skin, wearing coarse clothes, holding a cattle whip in his hand, and followed by an old cow.

The boy's eyes were clear and a little stubborn. He was exactly the Li Ming Ye Changsheng was looking for.

Li Ming saw a stranger coming to the house and hid behind the middle-aged woman timidly. The middle-aged woman touched Li Ming's head and said, "Ming'er, this immortal is here to see you."

Ye Changsheng stood up, with a gentle smile on his face, walked to Li Ming, squatted down, and tried to keep his eyes level with him: "You are Li Ming, right? My name is Ye Changsheng, and I am a monk. I was passing by here and heard that you are very smart, so I wanted to come and see you.”

Li Ming looked at Ye Changsheng curiously, his eyes full of curiosity and a hint of fear.

Although he is young, he has heard some legends about monks and knows that they possess great power.

"Chief Immortal, what do you want from me?"

Li Ming's voice was a little childish, but there was a hint of vigilance.

Ye Changsheng did not directly explain his purpose, but asked with a smile: "What is it you are holding in your hand?"

He noticed that Li Ming's right hand had been holding a gray stone tightly, which was exactly the "strange stone" described by Tianji Pavilion.

Li Ming hesitated for a moment, then released his hand, revealing the stone.

The stone is oval in shape, with a smooth and warm surface. It faintly emits a faint wave of spiritual energy, but it is not strong.

Ye Changsheng took the stone and looked at it carefully.

This stone is made of special material and is not an ordinary rock. It seems to contain a faint energy inside.

He circulated his spiritual power and tried to inject it into it. The stone shook slightly and emitted a brighter light.

Ye Changsheng initially sensed that this was a piece of at least the fourth-level divine beast origin, which could be regarded as part of the inner elixir.

As for what kind of divine beast it is, Ye Changsheng is not sure yet, but it is known that it is the origin of fire attribute.

As expected of a child with a certain amount of luck, everything he picks up has such an origin.

Ye Changsheng thought that his strategy of only accepting lucky children as disciples was indeed correct.

Because these children will not only bring him unexpected surprises.

And it will also bring you unexpected gains.

There are so many children with double spiritual roots in the world, and my quota is limited, why don’t I choose carefully?

Li Ming looked at the scene of the stone glowing in surprise, his eyes full of curiosity.

Ye Changsheng returned the stone to Li Ming and said with a smile: "This is really a good stone. You should keep it well."

Then Ye Changsheng smiled slightly, took out a jade stone that exuded a soft light from the storage bag, and handed it to Li Ming: "This jade stone can test your talent. Do you want to try it?"

Li Ming took the jade curiously, his eyes full of anticipation.

He didn't know the function of this jade stone, but he believed that the immortal would not harm him.

Ye Changsheng guided Li Ming to place his hand on the jade stone, and then slowly injected a bit of spiritual power into it. The jade suddenly bloomed with dazzling light, and the light showed two colors, one was cyan and the other was yellow.

"Double spiritual roots!"

A hint of surprise flashed in Ye Changsheng's eyes.

Li Ming looked at the glowing jade in his hand with a confused look on his face, not knowing what was happening.

Ye Changsheng smiled and explained: "Ming'er, you are very talented and suitable for cultivating immortals. Are you willing to follow me and learn the magic of cultivating immortals?"

Li Ming was stunned when he heard this, and his eyes were full of incredible looks.

He never dreamed that he would have the opportunity to become a legendary cultivator.

He looked at Ye Changsheng excitedly, and asked with a trembling voice: "Immortal, can I... can I really do it?"

Ye Changsheng nodded and said affirmatively: "Of course. As long as you are willing, I will teach you powerful magic and make you a real cultivator."

Li Ming could no longer suppress the excitement in his heart, and nodded vigorously: "I am willing! I am willing to follow the immortal!"

Ye Changsheng showed a gratified smile on his face.

His journey of accepting disciples finally took the first step towards success.

After Ye Changsheng took Li Ming away from Qingfeng Town, he embarked on a journey to continue looking for predestined disciples.

On the way, Li Ming was full of novelty about everything.

Sometimes he looked around curiously, and sometimes he followed Ye Changsheng carefully. Although he still had many doubts about the world of cultivation, compared to the simple days of herding cattle in the past, the current life has made him excited.

Along the way, Ye Changsheng did not deliberately speed up, but took good care of Li Ming, taught him some basic knowledge of the world of cultivation, and occasionally guided him in breathing and regulating his breath, so that Li Ming's foundation for cultivation would be more solid.
