Don't let Yu Ding take on any more disciples.

Chapter 108 Jade Cauldron: Where is my sword?

"Samadhi True Fire?"

The fire was extremely fierce, and in the blink of an eye, the two whisks turned into ashes and scattered in the air.

Huanglong and Taiyi were left with only a whisk handle.

Huanglong looked at Taiyi, shocked and angry, and said, "How could you even teach this?"

Taiyi coughed nervously and said, "I planned to enlighten it and then take it as my disciple, and since it's a fire-attribute spiritual treasure, I told it about it..."

boom!
But at that moment, the Fire Spirit Orb broke free of the whisk and, like a small sun, spun around and landed on a palace.

Instantly, flames shot into the sky above the palace.

"It's on fire, it's on fire!"

A disciple of Jade Void shouted and unleashed water-based magic, pouring jets of water and water dragons down on the flames.

But it's no use!

The water poured on the raging flames had no effect whatsoever; on the contrary, it made the fire even more ferocious, like adding fuel to the fire.

Upon seeing the burning palace, Huanglong Zhenren's eyelids twitched, and he decisively retreated. He came to Yu Ding's side and frowned, saying, "Junior Brother Taiyi, you have taught a good disciple."

"You bastard Huanglong..." Master Taiyi roared in anger, "If it weren't for your interference, how could the Fire Spirit Orb have run out and caused this trouble?"

Seeing that burning palace...

Taiyi was also in a real bind.

"Nonsense! If you hadn't preached to it and taught it the Dao first, would it have been able to burn down our Jade Void Palace?"

Huang Long's logic is very clear.

After all, it was Taiyi who broke the rules and violated regulations first, so how can we blame him, right?
After saying that, he looked at Yu Ding for support: "Right, Yu Ding?"

Taiyi wanted to have a good chat with Huanglong, but then he saw the Fire Spirit Orb heading towards another palace complex, and his expression immediately changed: "Not good!"

As he spoke, he moved and appeared above the burning palace. He made a hand seal and chanted an incantation, and a golden nine-dragon shield shone brightly and soared into the sky.

hold head high!
With a long roar, a fire dragon with nine gleaming scales and its body covered in flames flew out from the divine fire shield, opened its blood-red maw, and soared over the burning palace, swallowing the flames completely.

At this moment, the Fire Spirit Orb had already transformed into a streak of fire and sped away a great distance. Taiyi glanced at the firelight and sneered, "Naughty!"

Then, Taiyi calmly pointed a glowing magic spell at the Fire Spirit Orb, and immediately nine fire dragons roared forward, twisting and turning, forcing the Fire Spirit Orb into the sky and trapping it in the center.

boom!
Faced with this situation, it was clear to everyone that the Fire Spirit Orb was "angry".

Its own light shone brightly, its radiance increased dozens of times, and its flames surged, making it resemble a real sun, rampaging through the sky.

However, the nine fire dragons also rapidly expanded, growing to a size of a hundred feet, surrounding the Fire Spirit Orb in the center.

"Good baby!"

Huanglong Zhenren gazed at the sky, his eyes shining, and he drooled with envy.

Unfortunately, the Nine Dragons Divine Fire Cover was not his, and he also abandoned the Fire Spirit Orb after seeing the palace burned down.

I wonder when the three magical treasures promised by the goddess of Yaochi will arrive.

Yu Ding gently patted Huanglong Laotie's shoulder and looked up at the sky to comfort him:
"We'll have magic weapons, we'll have divine weapons, everything will be alright."

He really wanted to tell Huanglong, "Did you see that? They burned down our Jade Void Palace before they even took human form!"

This Fire Spirit Orb is a real troublemaker.

With your meager resources, you can't withstand its destructive tendencies. Let's just watch Old Taiyi have a headache.

"Yes, Old Yu Ding, you're right, everything will come..." Huang Long glanced at Yu Ding and nodded guiltily.

Rumble!
In the brief moment between their conversation, the Fire Spirit Orb, resembling a small sun in the sky, erupted with raging divine flames, struggling to break free from the fire dragon's encirclement.

Unfortunately, its true fire did not cause any harm to the nine fire dragons; on the contrary, it added three points of power to the fire dragons.

In an instant, nine fire dragons roared, their voices shaking the heavens.

The more the Fire Spirit Orbs resisted, the more excited they became.

A grand spectacle of "Nine Dragons Playing with a Pearl" suddenly unfolded, with the Fire Spirit Pearl being toyed with in the sky by the fire dragons like a ball.

As for Taiyi, he stood calmly with his hands behind his back in mid-air, a faint smile on his face.

Throughout the entire ordeal, he merely moved his finger to summon the Nine Dragons Divine Fire Cover regarding this Fire Spirit Pearl.

Then, in front of the nine fire dragons, the Fire Spirit Orb could no longer be fierce. It lost its previous prestige, could neither run away nor win, and turned from the little sun back into a bead, completely subdued by the nine fire dragons.

"Buzz!"

Taiyi Zhenren stepped forward and pointed at the Fire Spirit Orb with his right hand in a hand seal.

A beam of divine light was injected into the spirit pearl, and gradually the light on the spirit pearl intensified, and the figure of a curled-up child slowly took shape.

It can be seen that her appearance is extremely delicate, so delicate that it's like...

"What, a girl?"

Huang Long stared at the slowly taking shape figure, pinching his chin with a look of astonishment on his face.

“It shouldn’t be,” Yu Ding said.

However, his eyelids were twitching.

Because he discovered...

She really does look like a beautifully sculpted little girl!

Then, he glanced at the child's abdomen... thankfully, no parts were missing.

He also remembered that in the original mythology, Nezha was always depicted as a cute little boy.

Taiyi raised his hand and pointed, and a glowing golden ring landed on his wrist, turning into a golden bracelet.

Upon seeing this, Yu Ding also took a step forward, the space beneath his feet rapidly shrinking as he arrived in front of the solidified figure. He raised his hand, formed a hand seal, and pointed.
From within her sleeve, the Hun Tian Ling, which had caused the three-headed dragon unbearable pain, flew out and appeared before the child, transforming into a bright red bib.

Taiyi smiled and nodded.

That damned rag has finally flown away... The three-headed dragon in the sleeve was moved to tears, feeling warm and touched.

He glanced at the child... and his eyes lit up.

This girl is really pretty.

She's clearly a natural beauty.

At this moment, the child opened his eyes, revealing a pair of pure and bright eyes. After glancing at the bib, he rolled over and knelt on one knee before the jade cauldron, smiling and clasping his hands in greeting:

"Thank you, Master, for bestowing this treasure."

Taiyi's smile slowly froze.

Yu Ding: "???"

At the same time, he felt a chill on his back.

He knew without turning his head that one of his senior brothers must be looking very dark right now.

Kid, don't try to sow discord between us brothers, our bond is unbreakable... Yu Ding quickly raised his hand to his mouth and coughed to cover his embarrassment:
“Child, you have worshipped the wrong person. I am not your master, this is your master, Master Taiyi.”

He quickly stepped aside to make way for Taiyi beside him.

The boy, who was as pretty as a girl, blinked his curious eyes and asked, "The magic weapon you gave me, if you're not my master, then who is?"

Yu Ding's face darkened as he said, "I am your master..."

"Master's wife?"

The child interrupted with a change in expression.

Yu Ding's voice faltered at the word "uncle," and his smile vanished as he looked around.

"Junior brother, what are you looking for?"

Taiyi stood guard over the boy without making a sound.

"Where is my sword?"

Yu Ding spoke slowly and deliberately, his gaze unfriendly, "And Master's wife..."

If I, Yu Ding, don't give you a complete childhood, you won't know that I am your Uncle Yu Ding.

"Junior brother, it's not that bad, it's not that bad! Children say the darndest things!"

Taiyi Zhenren looked at the boy and chuckled dryly, "You brat, have you really forgotten how I taught you the Dao and imparted the Dao to you?"

The disciple, whom Yu Ding had painstakingly waited for nearly ten thousand years to finally be born, could not be allowed to be killed by Yu Ding with a single sword stroke.

The boy frowned and pondered for a moment, then his eyes lit up.

"Have you remembered?" Taiyi asked expectantly.

The boy nodded, then glanced at the jade cauldron and the undergarment he was wearing, and asked in confusion, "Then this..."

"The magical artifact you possess is called the Hun Tian Ling, the most prized treasure of my Golden Light Cave on Qian Yuan Mountain. It was borrowed by your uncle, Master Yu Ding."

Taiyi Zhenren looked at his disciple and pondered, "From now on, I need to give you a name. What should I call you?"

"Won't the Fire Spirit Orb work?"

Huang Long arrived in a flash, pursing his lips: "Look how troubled you are."

"Of course not, how can a foot have the same name as a person?"

"If the Fire Spirit Orb won't work, then isn't he just the Fire Spirit Orb in human form?" Huang Long sneered. "Fire Spirit Child, Fire Pearl, Little Fire Child, Little Spirit Child, Spirit Pearl, which one can't be called?"

The child glared angrily at the yellow dragon.

Little Fire... Yu Ding gave Huang Long a deep look, and he would call Huang Long the Crouching Dragon of the naming world.

Although he himself is terrible at naming things, he still has to complain:
Aside from the last two, what are those three in the middle?

"Not bad, the Fire Spirit Seed and the Spirit Pearl are good."

Taiyi, looking troubled, rubbed his chin and asked hesitantly, "But which name should I use?"

Does Taiyi have decision-making difficulties?

Yu Ding gave Taiyi a deep look and secretly wrote this down in his notebook: "I think we should call him Lingzhuzi."

With the suggestion, Taiyi's expression relaxed: "Alright, let's call it Lingzhuzi then."

"Thank you, Master and Uncle, for bestowing this name upon me!"

Lingzhuzi smiled and clasped his hands in greeting to the two of them.

"Congratulations, Senior Brother Taiyi, on the birth of your disciple."

Below, the people of Jade Void Palace saw that the original Lingbao had become Taiyi's disciple, and could only secretly sigh with regret before offering their congratulations.

"Thank you, fellow disciples."

Taiyi clasped his hands and smiled, "From now on, my good-for-nothing disciple will have to rely on you uncles for guidance."

“We will obey our senior brother’s words.”

One of the disciples smiled and cupped his hands in greeting.

"By the way, Senior Brother Yuding, Senior Brother Taiyi has already taken on disciples, when are you going to take on a disciple? Why is the Chan Sect spreading out like this?" someone laughed.

The others chimed in.

What the hell is this about branching out...? Yu Ding: (_)
The guy who used that word, you're really something.

"Haha, once you senior brothers have taken on disciples, please bring them to our Jade Void Palace when you have time. Let us brothers meet them and give our junior disciples some pointers!"

A true immortal at the peak of the Immortal Realm laughed.

"Yes, yes!"

The disciples of Yuxu, who were his senior uncles, were quite enthusiastic.

Upon hearing this, Taiyi and Huanglong, who knew the inside story, exchanged a silent glance.

He also wants to train his nephew?

You're lucky if you don't get "trained".

Yu Ding smiled and said, "No rush. I'll send him to Yuxu Palace in a while to learn from my fellow disciples."

I hope all of you fellow disciples will be able to make time for it!

Disciplining my apprentice?
Even I, as the master, wouldn't dare to do that now, how dare you?

"Okay, then it's settled."

"Senior brothers, we'll head back and get back to our work now."

Everyone laughed and took their leave.

Because Yu Ding was approachable and down-to-earth, they gradually dared to talk to him and even joke around with him.

"If you send Yang Jian... then there's no need for any sparring."

Taiyi shook his head. Although the immortals of the Chan Sect were not as good as those of the Jie Sect, there were still quite a few celestial immortals, but they were either in seclusion or traveling.

Furthermore, Yang Jian cultivated the Eight-Nine Arcane Arts and was taught so many supernatural powers by Yu Ding...

To be honest, with the addition of the human race's sacred weapon, the Mountain-Splitting Axe, Yang Jian even had the power to fight against a half-step Golden Immortal.

Those people will probably get a severe beating from their junior apprentices in the end.

"Master, does Uncle-Master Yu Ding have a disciple?"

Lingzhuzi's expression shifted as he asked, his voice a pure, boyish tone.

"Yes!"

Taiyi nodded: "He entered the sect eight or nine years earlier than you, so you should call him senior brother."

“Senior brother, hey, then he has to fight me first. Whoever wins becomes the senior brother,” Lingzhuzi said confidently.

Yu Ding glanced at him, beaming, and readily agreed, "Okay! Okay!"

This spiritual pearl was born from heaven and earth, and absorbed countless amounts of spiritual energy from heaven and earth, as well as the essence of the sun and moon.

He possesses immense potential, which is why this spirit bead can now unleash a great deal of divine power.

However, cultivation requires following a set procedure. Even if someone like Lingzhuzi is born with abundant spirit and energy and does not need to refine essence or energy, he still needs to cultivate his primordial spirit and unify essence, energy, and spirit to open the Heavenly Gate.

Yu Ding still quite admires Ling Zhu Zi now.

It's likely that his previous incarnation was at least as strong as, if not weaker than, the current Lingzhuzi.

Its predecessor, like the Spirit Pearl, had absorbed the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and the essence of the sun and moon for a long time, and was born sacred.
However, after being crippled, he lost all his former strength and had to start all over again step by step.

However, judging from the gains of the Nine Revolutions Profound Technique, it was all worthwhile.

Taiyi was startled and hurriedly said to Lingzhuzi, "Don't listen to your uncle, and don't look for his disciple. Those two are ruthless."

He taught his disciples the Heavenly Rules and the Laws of the Land, something the Heavenly Gods couldn't defeat or reason with...

He still can't accept this performance.

Fighting his disciple? Lingzhuzi, how could you have such an unrealistic idea?

Upon hearing Taiyi Zhenren's words, the three-headed dragon, who was hiding in his sleeve, roared in his heart: "I agree."

No, my heart is pure, only a tiny bit cunning... Yu Ding was very calm.

When Taiyi finished admonishing his disciple, he suddenly paused, startled:
Lingzhuzi had her hair styled in two buns, her face was exquisitely beautiful, and she had a flame mark between her brows...

Gradually, Taiyi's expression became strange. He looked at the jade cauldron, frowned, and transmitted his voice:
"Junior brother, have you noticed that my disciple... looks a bit like a little girl?"

Yu Ding coughed lightly and transmitted his voice, "You're only just realizing this? He's still young. Let's see when he grows up. Don't say anything in front of Ling Zhuzi that might affect his mindset."

"Oh, my little nephew is really good-looking."

Huang Long stepped forward, pinched Ling Zhuzi's cheek, and chuckled, "Is she a little girl?"

Even though your senior uncle also helped you choose a name, your name is still one of the ones I came up with.

But you only thanked those two guys in the end, and didn't thank me, your senior brother, at all. What does that mean?
This Huanglong just lacks the harsh realities of life... Yu Ding thought to himself, it's a pity that this guy escaped the siege by the Jie Sect.

"Little girl?"

Ling Zhuzi's face darkened, and in a pure boyish voice, he gritted his teeth and said, word by word, "I am a man."

He threw a punch straight at Huang Long's chest!
However, in Huang Long's eyes, his speed was slower than a snail.

Watching the fist approaching him, Huang Long commented with a nonchalant smile:

"This fierce fist wind is indeed worthy of being transformed from a spiritual pearl nurtured by heaven and earth; it might be able to crush a mountain."

Junior brother, you've found a good prospect. But I'll just stand here without moving, not even needing to use my protective divine light. You won't be able to harm a single hair on my head..."

As Ling Zhuzi threw a punch, the Qiankun Ring on his wrist and the Hun Tian Ling on his body both glowed with a "hum".

"Huh?" Huang Long was hit by the punch and instantly activated his White Eyes, staring at Ling Zhuzi in astonishment:

"Where did this kid get such superhuman strength?"

"Well, Senior Brother Huanglong, Junior Brother Yuding, I still have some matters to attend to at Qianyuan Mountain. See you later!"

When Taiyi saw that his disciple had beaten his master, he immediately rolled up his sleeves and ran away with his disciple.

Huang Long waved his hand dismissively, ignoring the two men.

After watching them leave, Yu Ding looked at Huang Long and said expressionlessly, "They're gone."

"Fine, I'll go then. When are you leaving?"

Huang Long turned his back, looking very pretentious, and didn't look at the jade cauldron.

"If it hurts, just yell out. It's not shameful in front of me."

Yu Ding said calmly.

Nezha, Yang Jian, Lei Zhenzi... many of the third-generation disciples of Yuxu are freaks and overpowered individuals, and cannot be judged by ordinary standards.

It turns out that Huanglong was the weakest of the Twelve Golden Immortals. He had never lost a verbal battle, but he had never won a fight.

This spirit pearl is a divine object nurtured by heaven and earth, taking countless years to take shape. It possesses considerable divine power, and with the addition of the Qiankun Ring and the Hun Tian Ling, who knows how powerful a single punch it can be?

What's more, Huanglong is so pretentious, he doesn't even use his protective divine light.

He figured the punch would have an effect.

"Hiss... Yu Ding, that kid's punch was damn powerful!"

Huang Long couldn't hold back any longer. He bent over, grimacing and rubbing his chest, and said, "Next time, you have to get Yang Jian to help me beat him up properly."

P.S.: It turns out everyone's tonight is a little different from Polo's, emm... Polo's is before dawn.
