One sword cheat

Chapter 52 Cause and Effect: Drawing the Sword to Repay Life and Death

"Master, you're dying soon, why don't we just accept it from the bottom of our hearts?"

Chen Ren hesitated for a moment before saying, "After all, this thing contains what's supposedly a relic of an ancient god. Even if you don't use it, couldn't you at least take a look at it?"

He was genuinely afraid that his cheap master had died, and then he noticed that the number 6 was on her hand.

Zhang Yunqing, you're really something!

Before leaving, they had 10 years to live; when they came back, they only had 6 years left.

What? Did you spend those four years of your life playing mahjong outside?

"You really want to give it to me?"

Zhang Yunqing looked at Chen Ren with some surprise, after all, she knew this boy very well, and he valued money extremely much.

While it's not entirely unreasonable, since cultivation requires resources, this kid is clearly going to extremes.

You must know that this is the flesh and blood left behind by the ancient gods. Even though the spirituality within has been lost, it still bears the traces of the ancient gods.

It is even enough to allow cultivators at the ninth level of Qi Refining to directly break through to the Foundation Establishment stage.

For Foundation Establishment cultivators, it is something that is hard to come by and has a great role in promoting the perfection of their own Great Dao.

If it were to be sold, it would probably fetch an astronomical price, and it would also bring in favors from those who have reached the Foundation Establishment stage.

She didn't want to take advantage of her junior apprentice anymore. Zhang Yunqing planned to use her junior apprentice's spiritual root to offset the previous ten million, but the process would undoubtedly be quite taxing on her.

Moreover, the Heavenly Dao of the Ancient Realm does not allow such things to be done, as it would incur great karmic consequences.

Luo Yunxi is right. This ancient god is similar to her Heavenly Sword Path. She does need this flesh and blood. Just by borrowing it, she can improve her own Great Dao and thus break through to a higher realm.

"My master led me into the path of Taoism, which is already an immense kindness. He gave me his eyeball and that's all I have to do with it."

Chen Ren couldn't see any use for this thing at all; he had already killed the True Ancestor inside.

The sword was completely devoured, and it even gained a second-stage breakthrough, so it's already a huge profit.

Moreover, Chen Ren knew very well that without his cheap master's indirect help, he would not have been able to deal with this ancient god.

Even the patriarch-level masters of Shangqing Peak don't care about him; only by clinging to Zhang Yunqing can he develop in peace.

Currently, this thigh only has 6 years left to last, so we need to think of a solution quickly.

"Master, class is about to start. If there's nothing else, I'll go teach my students."

He gestured for Zhang Yunqing to help him down; it was so high, he was scared.

Damn it, why didn't I find flying in the sky so scary before? Was it because we weren't at a high enough altitude?

Zhang Yunqing nodded and waved to see Chen Ren off.

She looked down at the eyeball and slowly exhaled.

The way of observing the heavens flickered in her pupils, analyzing the veins of the ancient gods.

"The ancient gods of that era were truly fortunate, born with the blessing of the Great Dao. Even the traces left in their flesh and blood are incomparable to those of our later generations."

She was almost mesmerized by the eyeball. Faintly, a Dao foundation, permeating the cracks, glowed within her dantian, and spiritual energy seemed to condense into a totem shaped like this eye...

Chen Ren taught as usual, and these children, after being stimulated, did indeed become much more diligent and hardworking.

Before the third lash could even be delivered, the two pointers were rendered useless and were left to gather dust.

He hadn't forgotten much of what he taught these children.

Every day when Chen Ren went to see these little guys, they all had dark circles under their eyes, but they still forced themselves to study hard.

When I'm sleepy, I reach out and pinch my thigh.

"Take your hand away."

Chen Ren noticed that Xiao Ye was nodding her head during class, but she wasn't sleeping. After a while, she would become more energetic again.

He grabbed Xiao Ye's hand and gently lifted it up.

"teacher……"

Xiao Ye subconsciously glanced at him with her bloodshot eyes, then quickly looked away after making eye contact, seemingly afraid to look at Chen Ren.

Chen Ren didn't speak, but pushed her animal skin skirt up a bit, revealing bruises on her thighs. His expression darkened.

Turning back, Chen Ren looked at Xiao Shi again, and saw that his feet were the same.

The other students don't need to look; they all have the exact same answers.

"What are you doing?"

He sternly rebuked, "Learning isn't just about rote memorization; it's about applying what you've learned!"

"The key is to balance work and rest. If you keep going like this, you'll probably die from overwork in less than three months, let alone make it out in the future."

These rascals, being lazy is bad, but being too serious is also bad!

"I'm not teaching today. You can all take a day off!"

Although teaching them to read and write for three months was tiring, Chen Ren dared not teach any more classes, fearing the children wouldn't be able to endure it.

Thinking about it carefully, these children don't seem to be from Earth. They don't have compulsory education or cultural enrichment, yet they can still progress faster than those on Earth.

The hard work they put in may have exceeded his expectations.

"teacher……"

Xiao Ye held onto Chen Ren's hand tightly.

Her little hands are calloused, and she usually helps with farm work.

"What's wrong?"

Chen Ren's tone softened: "You really need to rest."

"I don't want to rest, I miss my mom and dad..."

She spoke in a voice so low it was almost inaudible, words that made Chen Ren tremble.

[Ding: Sword Drawing Value +100...]

At this moment, he dared not look down into Xiao Ye's eyes.

She's just a child.

Chen Ren's expression was somewhat complicated. After a moment of silence, he said, "From now on, we'll add a nap. The lunch break will be two and a half hours, right here in the classroom."

"I will speak to the priest and have him prepare some animal hides."

When noon arrived, the children began to snore under his coercion, while Chen Ren himself walked out of the classroom, feeling agitated.

The sword-drawing value increases continuously: 20...21...24...30.......

He thought he was beyond being moved by life and death, but he witnessed this scene unfold before his eyes...

He witnessed firsthand that these children's future lives were already shrouded in gloom, that they would live in a long period of rain, and he felt a pang of sadness.

Only good people are troubled by their conscience, even though these things have nothing to do with them.

Chen Ren picked up his phone and casually scrolled through videos, when he came across some news about Xiao Qingguo.

One comment read: "It's said that the remains of an ancient god were discovered, and one set of remains sold for a whopping 3122 spirit stones—an astronomical price!"

Holy crap, who's that rich?

"My god, the remains of an ancient god? Does that mean we're about to see another Foundation Establishment cultivator emerge?"

Upon seeing this sentence, Chen Ren recalled the piece of remains in his hand, and then his whole body trembled as he subconsciously looked up at the sky.

Damn it, Zhang Yunqing, that woman, has disappeared!

More than three thousand spirit stones... My heart aches so much, it's even more unbearable...

[Ding: Sword Drawing Value +100!]

Current sword draw value: 1144/100

Chen Ren was unaware that the remains of other ancient gods were all shattered; in order to kill an ancient god, they were basically all fragments.

But his is exceptionally complete, making it even more valuable. If it were to be sold, the price would only be higher; it would be priceless.

Otherwise, it will be even more painful.

Having finally accumulated 1000 sword-drawing points, Chen Ren drew his sword without hesitation and began to calculate!

"I'm going to draw my sword of cause and effect and change my life and death. Damn it, this damn place, Sanfu Town, is really unpleasant. It's making me lose money."

He simply couldn't bear to watch any longer; his Daoist mind was not clear.

He could accumulate 1000 sword-drawing points, and if he could exchange them for the children's parents and relatives, he felt it was worth it.

If the Three Pure Ones could see this, they would surely encourage him and help him accumulate good karma.

The cause-and-effect relationship reappeared, and Chen Ren, following the cause and effect, arrived at that day.
