Chapter 149: Miscellaneous Tasks
After hearing these words, Han Li naturally kept them firmly in mind.
“Since you’ve received your items, now come with me to meet the Power Transmission disciples!” Senior Disciple Uncle Wang said, then once again rode the magical artifact, lifting Han Li into the air.
This time the flight was much shorter, and in the blink of an eye, they landed at the foot of a nearby mountain. There stood a massive stone building built against the mountainside, with a stone plaque in front inscribed with the three golden characters: “Power Transmission Pavilion.” Nearby, some young disciples were coming and going, the scene quite lively.
Senior Disciple Uncle Wang didn’t say anything this time and took the lead walking inside. Han Li followed closely behind. Some disciples clearly recognized Uncle Wang, repeatedly bowing and greeting him; he smiled and nodded in response. It seemed he had quite a good reputation within Yellow Maple Valley.
Once inside the stone building, Han Li was surprised to discover that the rear half of the Power Transmission Pavilion actually extended deep into the mountain itself. It was incredibly spacious inside. Upon entering, a row of stone doors was lined up directly before them, with disciples moving in and out through these doors.
Han Li was about to take a closer look when Uncle Wang pushed open the third door on the right and went in on his own. This left Han Li hesitating, unsure whether he should follow.
“Come in!” Uncle Wang didn’t keep Han Li waiting long and soon appeared at the doorway, beckoning him inside.
There weren’t many people in the room—only a disciple in his thirties dressed in green robes respectfully standing beside Uncle Wang. Upon seeing Han Li enter, he smiled kindly at him.
“This is Wu Feng, the disciple in charge of new disciples’ cultivation techniques. From now on, if you have any questions about your cultivation methods, you can come to him for guidance. Among the junior disciples, Wu Feng is ranked within the top ten in mastering basic cultivation techniques!” Uncle Wang spoke with great admiration for him.
“Senior Brother Wu, please take good care of me in the future!” Han Li said respectfully. He knew very well that this man would be his cultivation mentor for a period of time and he must not be negligent.
“Hehe! Senior Uncle, you flatter me. Actually, I only have a rough understanding of low-level techniques. I’m happy to practice and comprehend alongside Junior Brother Han!” Senior Brother Wu replied politely.
“Wu Feng, I know how good your cultivation is, so no need to be so humble! I’m leaving matters of cultivation to you. I’m just bringing him over for you two to get acquainted. Then I have to take him elsewhere to make some introductions, so I won’t keep you here long!”
Senior Disciple Uncle Wang was straightforward. Having said this, with Wu Feng seeing them out politely, he left the room with Han Li.
Over the following period, Uncle Wang dutifully took Han Li to several other important places, introducing him to a few attendant disciples and explaining some daily matters to keep in mind. Only then did he bring Han Li back to the cluster of stone houses where the gray-robed elder resided, letting him pick any stone chamber as his residence before leaving him alone.
Han Li stood in front of the stone house he had chosen and looked around the simple dwelling with a bitter smile.
By now, he knew that once a disciple had cultivated their basic techniques to the tenth layer, they could leave this place and move to a location called Xuankun Mountain. There, disciples enjoyed much greater freedom! They could freely build their own dwellings on the mountain, with no limits on the type or size of the houses. This prospect filled Han Li with longing.
However, although his cultivation techniques had yet to reach the tenth layer, Han Li had no real intention of living long-term in this stone house.
Suddenly, he chuckled softly and took out a green leaf magical artifact for flying from his storage pouch. After infusing it with spiritual power, he tossed it into the air and jumped onto it.
