Chapter 163 (1/2)
Chapter 163: Acknowledge as master!
Just as Xiahou Qianbai has summarised the seven realms of martial arts for Li Muyang, what kind of state is the Empty Valley?
It seems like a valley or rather a water channel. Essential qi fills up the valley, it gradually rises and develops into a towering mountain and then escalates to the High Mountain Realm.
What’s different is that, this valley can be large or small, deep or shallow. Like a gulf or a warehouse. Because of the difference in depth and size, cultivators achieve different outcomes.
Of course, it’s not a definite influencing factor. It does not necessarily mean that a wider gulf means one is more likely to become a strong person of Starry Sky. Such a misinterpretation would cause cultivators who are unable to fill up the Empty Valley to sustain injuries and fill with resentment. It also doesn’t necessarily mean that those with a small valley would not have big accomplishments; however, those with a small valley does have a higher probability of progressing at a slower pace——Those originally without an Empty Valley but was enlightened overnight and become famous across the starry sky, are also not a small number.
Therefore, everything depended on fate.
However, Xiahou Qianbai has never seen an Empty Valley like this.
More accurately, it’s not a valley.
It’s an ocean, a vast expanse of blue sea.
Majestic, spectacular and without boundaries.
Water ripples are wide and powerful compared to the bright starry sky above. The size of the sky is the size of the sea. Boundless sea and sky. Sky and sea together as one. There is no clear dividing line between the sky and the sea, as though it is difficult to separate them from their origin.
Red sun rises from the bottom of the sea, the moon G.o.ddess descends toward the bottom of the sea.
The sea is their bed, it’s a warm hug. It embraces thousands of stars and even the brightest star in the sky is just a child of the sea.
“What is this?” Xiahou Qianbai became furious when he saw this scene. He felt Li Muyang is rebellious and always use all sorts of weird things to refute every word he says—He can endure everything else but the seven realms of martial arts are the rules that all cultivators of the divine continent follow, why must you be different?
“What is this? Because I said the Empty Valley is like a valley, so you’ve got an ocean? If there’s something you’re not happy with, then tell me, don’t play such tricks with me——” Xiahou Qianbai had an impulse to yell at Li Muyang.
Of course, he’s a n.o.ble. He would never behave in such a rude manner.
“As vast as the ocean?” Li Muyang is a beginner, he obviously could not understand the meaning of Xiahou Qianbai’s words and even more did not notice the odd expression on his face. Of course, even if he noticed, he would only think that Xiahou Qianbai is——envious. After all, a disciple’s Empty Valley is larger than his Empty Valley back then, of course the teacher’s face won’t look so good.
Li Muyang eyes widen and his face lit up in a wide smile: “So, my Empty Valley must be very big, right?”
“Very big.” Xiahou Qianbai replied. In fact, ‘very’ can hardly describe it. He thought for a very long time, before deciding that ‘as vast as the sea’ is more appropriate.
“That’s great, that’s great. Teacher Xiahou mentioned that a bigger Empty Valley can acc.u.mulate more essential qi and has a higher chance of breaking into the next realm and progress further in the long run— — Teacher Xiahou, I will definitely become a strong person of Starry Sky, ri
ght?”
Xiahou Qianbai remained silent for a long time, before he replied: “This——depends on fate.”
Xiahou Qianbai was not brus.h.i.+ng off Li Muyang. He really could not make a rational a.n.a.lysis of Li Muyang’s current state, not even a dubious speculation.
His Empty Valley is a vast blue sea, is this good or bad?
It seems pretty special, and also very cool.
