Chapter 55: Heavenly Cauldron (1) (2/2)
However, in the current moment, Li Qiye had a different plan. He didn’t have the capability right now to give the master and desciple the entire Violet Yang Ten Sun Merit Law.
“The Violet Yang Ten Sun Law.” Li Qiye smiled with a determined expression, and he said: “I’m willing to bet, within just one year, that you both will be able to practice a completed Violet Yang Ten Sun Merit Law. As for you guys…”
Pausing here, Li Qiye looked at the disciple and master, and he smilingly said: “As for the Violet Cloud Merit Law, there is no complaints here. Before, I had already observed your vital situations. Protector Mo’s Dao foundation is solid, and little brother Ren is a little shallow. Continue to practice this law; once the foundation becomes fortified, then you will practice the Violet Yang Ten Sun Merit Law. This would be like doing less, yet you reaping greater benefits.”
Li Qiye’s words made the master and disciple indefinitely shocked. Those words were with extreme confidence; they couldn’t understand the reason for his confidence in stating that, within one year, they could cultivate the completed Violet Yang Ten Sun Merit Law. One had to know that the current Cleansing Incense Ancient Sect essentially did not have a complete Violet Yang Ten Sun Merit Law!
If this was a different person, they definitely would say that these words were crazy, and only meant to console them. However, having seen Li Qiye’s frightening demonic demonstration, Protector Mo and Nan Huairen didn’t doubt Li Qiye. The only thing that was surprising to them was how Li Qiye will obtain the complete Violet Yang Ten Sun Merit Law.
Li Qiye, to the anxious master and disciple, said: “Even though Protector Mo has reached a bottleneck, there is a method to break this bottleneck. When you are practicing the Violet Cloud Merit Law, in the morning, absorb the sun, in the late afternoon, extract the essence in the clouds. Extreme Yang Vital Flame from the sun and the afternoon vital essence combined together with the world natural energy, and then turn them into Longevity Blood. This is a different shortcut for the Violet Cloud Merit Law; both of you could do this practice.”
The merit laws of the Cleansing Incense Ancient Sect were either left behind by him or created by Immortal Emperor Min Ren. There was no one who was more familiar with them than him. Even if he couldn’t find his memories of the Violet Cloud Merit Law, he would still know the essentials of this merit law.
“We will try a little bit.” The master and disciple pair agreed to Li Qiye’s suggestion.
Sure enough, not even in a few days, even though Protector Mo didn’t come, Nan Huairen excitedly jumped up and down; he happily told Li Qiye: “Big brother, this matter was too mysterious! I followed your instruction on how to practice this merit law. It was truly doing less while reaping more benefits. One day of practice was more than my normal five or six days of cultivation. Big brother, how did you come up with this method? You don’t practice the Violet Cloud Merit Law.”
Such a result left Nan Huairen with disbelief. In reality, his master also felt that it was impossible. This result left them in amazement. Li Qiye only pointed out one or two sentences, but those words gave them a road that they had never heard of before.
Li Qiye spoke in a carefree manner: “I was only picking my finger to calculate.” [4]
Nan Huairen, of course, didn’t believe the picking of fingers calculation. This matter was essentially impossible. Even his grandmaster, Elder Sun, didn’t know this method; why was it that Li Qiye knew such specific details? However, if Li Qiye didn’t want to reveal any more, then Nan Huairen wouldn’t dare to inquire further. Being with Li Qiye for this long, he slowly began to understand Li Qiye’s temperament.
Li Qiye pointed out some advice for the master and disciple; he didn’t think that not even a month had pa.s.sed and Protector Mo had already recommended someone else to come to Li Qiye for Dao instruction. This person was the master of Protector Mo, and he was also known as Elder Sun, one of the Six Elders. His cultivation was enough to be bestowed the t.i.tle of Named Hero!
If one was to say that an elder of the Cleansing Incense Ancient Sect, a big character with the qualification to be a Named Hero, was asking a third generation disciple for pointers, this matter was essentially inconceivable.
In fact, recently, Elder Sun’s cultivation had a problem. Protector Mo, as his disciple, naturally had to help his master, so the first thing that came up in his mind was Li Qiye.
Of course, Elder Sun thought that his disciple’s idea was too outrageous. If it was before, Elder Sun would have scolded Protector Mo right away; however, today, Protector Mo’s status was different. Elder Sun, as the master, had been more protective and caring for his disciple.
Protector Mo brought up the pointers from Li Qiye regarding the Violet Cloud Merit Law to Elder Sun. Elder Sun tried it once and he saw its effectiveness, surprising him. In the end, under the nagging of Protector Mo, Elder Sun eventually put away his pride, and went to the Lonely Peak to let Li Qiye look at him a little bit. [5]
Even with the arrival of an elder, Li Qiye was still nonchalant. Elder Sun wasn’t happy about it, but he could still endure. Currently, even the descendant of the Nine Saint Demon Gate, princess of the Old Ox country, was very attentive of Li Qiye; he, as an elder, couldn’t afford to put on too much air.
Li Qiye examined the Life Wheel, Fate Palace, and Physique of Elder Sun, and he then said: “Elder’s Dao foundation can be considered solid; however, that year, during the Purified Rebirth rank, you were too eager for success, and you left behind defects on your Dao foundation. When you were at the Heaven’s Primal rank, you swapped from the Violet Cloud Merit Law to a different Virtuous Paragon merit law; this isn’t a big problem. Even though the two merit laws combining is not extremely perfect, but, at the point of Life Reduction and Fate Calamity, it will not be fatal.”
Li Qiye’s words, once they got out, shook Elder Sun. At first, he didn’t think too highly of Li Qiye, but, right now, Li Qiye diagnosed him like a doctor treating a sick horse.
[1] Tapping the horse’s b.u.t.t means flattering words. Gas and fart means to just spit it out.
[2] Long sleeves help one dance beautifully, meaning he believes in material things/benefits, and will say/do most things for them.
[3] Heaven’s Primal has multiple levels in it as well, and Primal G.o.d is one of them. As for the heaven’s will here, it is more of a general comment, not the proper Heaven’s Will that could only be obtained by one Immortal Emperor.
[4] Fortune tellers/wise masters in China have this action where they look at their fingers and do a variety of symbols and gestures to predict a matter.
[5] Li Qiye’s peak is named Lonely Peak.
