In the tranquil chamber of the Three Star Immortal Cave, the Ancestor Master was discussing divine abilities with his disciple.
The Ancestor Master had Jiang Yuan sit on a mat and took his own seat, saying, “This divine ability, I cannot teach you directly. I can only tell you about it. If I were to teach you, I might make mistakes, so it is better for you to learn from someone else. This divine ability is difficult to learn, and you should be aware of that.”
Jiang Yuan asked, “Master, what kind of divine ability is this that even you cannot teach?”
The Ancestor Master replied, “This divine ability is a marvelous method of ‘refining pills.’ I am not skilled in it, so I cannot pass it on to you. Outside of the Old Lord, there is no one in the Three Realms who can teach you. If you are to learn it on your own, who knows how many tribulations it would take for you to comprehend it.”
Upon hearing this, Jiang Yuan was unaware of the difficulties of ‘refining pills.’ Listening to the Ancestor Master, he dared not take it lightly and thus said, “Master, what exactly is this divine ability of refining pills?”
The Ancestor Master smiled and said, “Once you practice it, you will understand. Since I cannot teach you this divine ability, I must ask the Old Lord to instruct you.”
