977 Growth
“Heavenly dao, this old man has been your lackey for my whole life, so why are you still hindering me? This old man has one good disciple, and he will step upon you . Chou’er, I am coming to you…”
Li Yunmu knelt in the direction of where Heavenly Emperor Ryukyu had disappeared and heavily knocked his head three times against the ground with two streams of tears flowing down his face .
“Master, have a good trip… . ”
After sending off Heavenly Emperor Ryukyu, Li Yunmu’s mood became much worse . He didn’t move and kept kneeling without making any sound, without drinking or eating, nor even using his flux energy .
Li Yunmu knelt like that for three days . After they passed, he slowly stood up and quickly found the emperor’s goblet in the void based on the directions provided by Heavenly Emperor Ryukyu .
The emperor’s goblet was more than eight feet tall and was releasing an extremely ancient presence . There were patterns in the shape of birds and beasts engraved on its surface .
Heavenly Emperor Ryukyu had said that he had accidentally found the emperor’s goblet . After obtaining it, he nurtured it with his dao intent for a long time and, with time, the emperor’s goblet took in his entire life’s comprehension about dao intent .
When the emperor’s goblet sensed Li Yunmu’s presence, its body began to shake, and a startling sound came from within it . The emperor’s goblet contained the essence of Heavenly Emperor Ryukyu, and it had already developed intelligence . Apart from not having a tool spirit, it wasn’t any different from an immortal tool .
Li Yunmu was a disciple of Heavenly Emperor Ryukyu, so the emperor’s goblet didn’t reject his presence . When he stepped forward and touched it, it transformed into a small pendant and fell in his hand .
A voice filled with vicissitudes of life spoke in Li Yunmu’s brain, and he shed silent tears once more . The voice belonged to his master, Heavenly Emperor Ryukyu .
“Youngster, although I don’t know who you are, this emperor’s goblet is a magic tool nurtured by me using dao intent during my life . Since you have found it, I should’ve already left this world . This emperor’s goblet can be considered to you, and you can also be considered as my disciple . I hope you won’t let my lifetime’s comprehension fall into oblivion .
“I hope that you don’t disgrace this emperor’s goblet and will continue my Ryukyu dao . If you aren’t suitable, then I hope that you can find a suitable person for me . And that’s it from me . Everything depends upon you now…”
After that, the voice disappeared . Heavenly Emperor Ryukyu should have recorded his speech a long time ago, afraid that he might not be able to live long enough to find his successor .
Li Yunmu held the emperor’s goblet in his hand . He had already thought of a suitable candidate for the Ryukyu inheritance, and it was Jue Qingzi .
At that moment, he was residing in Li Yunmu’s heavenly world, and he had awakened a sword body . Heavenly Emperor Ryukyu used a sword, so Jue Qingzi was the most suitable candidate for the emperor’s goblet .
After all, it could no longer assist Li Yunmu based on his realm, but Jue Qingzi would certainly take Heavenly Emperor Ryukyu’s dao to new heights and could be a good disciple for him .
Li Yunmu summoned Jue Qingzi . The young man’s brain was comparable to that of a ten year old child, and when he saw Li Yunmu, he quickly knelt in front of him .
“Respectful greetings, Master Yunmu . ”

Jue Qingzi had been hearing about Li Yunmu’s deeds every day in the heavenly world and had also seen a statue of him, so he could naturally recognize him .
But he was extremely curious why Li Yunmu had called him . In his eyes, Li Yunmu’s existence was similar to that of a god, while he was only an ordinary person, so a confused expression was on his face at that moment .
“How’s your cultivation proceeding in the heavenly world?” Li Yunmu asked in a cold voice .
Li Yunmu felt a hint of guilt toward Jue Qingzi whenever he saw him because he was closely related to the reason behind Jue Qingzi’s present state .
It was also the reason why Li Yunmu hadn’t gone to see Jue Qingzi for so long, regardless of how his cultivation proceeded . Li Yunmu didn’t intend to check up on him, and even if Jue Qingzi chose to leave the heavenly world after becoming powerful, Li Yunmu didn’t plan to stop him .
“Reporting to master, I am presently in the golden core stage . ”
Although Jue Qingzi possessed a sword body, when all was said and done, his mind was still that of a ten year old child, so he was extremely afraid of Li Yunmu .
Jue Qingzi’s words left Li Yunmu gobsmacked . He hadn’t expected that in such a short period, Jue Qingzi would reach the golden core stage, but it was as expected of an innate sword body . It was extremely terrifying .
But Li Yunmu didn’t intend to strangle Jue Qingzi in the cradle . Worst came to worst, when he came to find Li Yunmu for his revenge, Li Yunmu would have to defeat him .

Thus, Li Yunmu took out the emperor’s goblet and passed it to Jue Qingzi . The youth sensed that it was extremely formidable, and a joyful expression appeared on his face .
Jue Qingzi then knelt once more . “Many thanks to master for the reward . I will definitely not disappoint you!”
Li Yunmu sent him back to the heavenly world while mumbling, “Wouldn’t disappoint me, huh? Seems like you’ll become an extremely formidable enemy . ”
Li Yunmu didn’t continue thinking about this matter . Instead, he sat down cross-legged and took out the notebook containing the experiences of Heavenly Emperor Ryukyu regarding pill concocting . It was the wealth left behind by Heavenly Emperor Ryukyu for him, and Li Yunmu intended to leave only after digesting this knowledge .
Just as Heavenly Emperor Ryukyu said, Li Yunmu didn’t want to ruin his master’s title of Medicine Emperor . As a disciple of Heavenly Emperor Ryukyu, how could he not have knowledge about pill concocting?
[You have already seen Jue Qingzi’s development . I’m surprise that you didn’t choose to strangle him in the cradle . Instead, you actually gave him the emperor’s goblet . Aren’t you afraid?] the system asked in his head .
The system, of course, knew that the emperor’s goblet wasn’t of much use to Li Yunmu because he was already on the way to a breakthrough after receiving the guidance of Heavenly Emperor Ryukyu . The best period to use the emperor’s goblet was in the immortal realm, so it was too late .
It was the reason why Li Yunmu didn’t hesitate when handing it over, but the system hadn’t expected that he would give it to Jue Qingzi and couldn’t help but warn him .
“What are you afraid of? Afraid that he will surpass me? If that really happens, then I am just a trash so what’s the harm in him defeating me? I might as well give him an opportunity to chase after me,” Li Yunmu said indifferently .

[That’s also right . A person like you who isn’t even afraid of heaven, what else could you be afraid of? But previously, I saw in your future that there will be a person who will become a great hindrance on your cultivation path . After observing for so long, it should be Jue Qingzi . ]
Li Yunmu nodded . He had already thought about it in his heart . He sighed and continued studying the notes of Heavenly Emperor Ryukyu .
“We should let nature take its course…”
