Chapter 2027: Casually Picking Tea Leaves (2/2)
The students here knew that according to the writings, no students have ever been able to grab these twelve-dao leaves. Perhaps some teachers have done so but this was never recorded. Thus, the best record belonged to Nether Lunatic at ten dao.
Everyone felt that this was impossible. Though they didn’t know how talented Nether Lunatic was since he was from an older era, Virtuous was the best reference right now. He was one of the most talented but could only grab the nine-dao ones. Thus, they didn’t believe Li Qiye could reach the twelve-dao leaves.
All eyes were on him, waiting for him to make a fool out of himself.
“Is it really impossible?” They started whispering among themselves.
“At least in the records, no one has done it before. I don’t think this will change.” Someone answered.
These students felt that Li Qiye has overplayed his boasting card.
Li Qiye simply smiled and said: “Very well, I shall show you frogs how high the sky really is. Don’t think that just because it is impossible for you that it is impossible for everyone else.”
“Behold, the only and only lord of all grand dao!” Li Qiye smiled and headed for the ridge.
“Boom!” The ocean-like dao and its runes drowned everything again.
In this split second, Li Qiye’s eyes became resplendent as if wanting to break through the temporal limit.
“Just a minor dao.” He spread his palm and reigned over everything before closing once more. “Whoos.h.!.+” The entire dao path and its runes were instantly within his grasp.
Everyone felt that it was no longer a grand dao but more of a silk string now. This dao was virtually eternal but it seemed insignificant in his palm. Vast its power might be, now it was only something helpless fluttering in the wind.
Li Qiye went on and stood below the tea tree while casually looking at it.
“No way!” The youths were aghast and took one step back in astonishment.
No one has ever been able to cross through this grand dao before. Now, he was not only doing that but he had also taken in this particular grand dao!
“How is this happening…” The students stood there silly looking at him.
In their mind, just taking some leaves while being inside this grand dao was amazing enough. But now, he was standing before the tree which meant he could take whichever leaf he wanted.
“Too many fools in this world, how can they understand the mysteries?” Li Qiye flatly stated.
“Hmm, I guess this tea is ultimately not that bad.” He casually grabbed the twelve-dao leaves from the top of the tree.
The laws were especially golden and resplendent around these leaves; people couldn’t help wanting to take a bite.
He left behind a small quant.i.ty before chuckling: “Alright, fine, I’ll be nice and leave a bit for the old geezers so they can’t complain.”
The crowd was still petrified. Some salivated while looking at the tea leaves and their brilliant glow.
