Chapter 201 Cultivation Was for Immortality (2/2)

This was of course because he was from Qing Xuan. Even if he occupied only a common status, he had the opportunity to see the best of the very best. If this sword incantation was seen elsewhere, it would be considered as extraordinary.

Shen Lian responded, ”Don't you think that the incantation I created is just average? Even if it seems to have some essence, you can say it is rather simple.”

Choushi hesitated and said, ”It was rather simple, but headmaster, you only created it on a whim and I believe it was incomplete. I believe that if it is polished further, Qing Xuan will have attained yet another great technique.” He understood that being a sycophant would not bring many benefits to great cultivators like Shen Lian, but he still took the opportunity.

Among Qing Xuan's younger group, there was not anyone who did not respect Shen Lian. For a long time before this, Shen Lian had helped the other students of his level. After he came back to the mountain, he then achieved the Nine Transformations of Huandan and even had a battle with Bai Suhuan with no obvious victory or loss. Ninety-nine percent of the Doyens could not even reach Shen Lian's level, and hence it was nothing surprising.

Choushi used to ask for advice from Shen Lian before, but at the same time, there were many who did the same. Choushi was not any different and hence he was surprised Shen Lian remembered him. He respected Shen Lian even more.

Shen Lian laughed and said, ”If this item goes under the Qing Xuan sect, all the previous generations of headmasters will be laughing at me. Well, since you followed me here, I have something that I need you to help with.”

Choushi replied in respect, ”I will follow your order till death.”

Shen Lian replied, ”There is no need for death. The Doyen taught you how to cultivate is intended for you to cultivate alongside others, be the support for each other and to achieve immortality. It is not asking you to die.”

A lot of Doyens would probably disagree with this, but it fitted in best with the original heart in cultivation.

The battles among the Doyens, the revenge, and the friendship were all unimportant. If one were to lose his or her life, nothing mattered. However, even if one could understand, it was still a challenge to face it.

Even commoners knew that peace was important, but in the era of the empire, the battles of two armies always took a lot of lives.

Shen Lian did not expect the rest of the world to agree with what he thought. He would not take lives easily, but even if he had to, it never affected his Daoist heart.

It was just like how Buddha too shared anger with the Acala in implementing the Elimination of Evil.

He stopped for a while and said, ”This sword incantation, while not being extremely extraordinary, it is not easy to learn it in a short amount of time. I will use some of the sword identity and transform it into sword aura into your body. When you follow me to Qing Xuan Hall later, I will have some use for you.”

Choushi did not expect this was Shen Lian's order. Shen Lian would not harm him, but to allow other's sword aura to enter one's body, most cultivators would be hesitant as they would no longer have any secrets.

Choushi however, did not hesitate and said, ”If headmaster you want to do it now, I have no second opinion.”

Shen Lian could tell that he was willing, he then sent some of his spiritual consciousness, combining with the sword aura into his body.

Choushi could feel that the sword aura was extremely active in the body, and it blended in well with his mana. While they were different, they were working well. The sword aura even helped him improve his mana.

This was because the sword aura was born from Shen Lian's extremely pure Qi of Dan with great quality.

At the same time, there were hidden messages in the sword aura. Choushi felt appreciative of the opportunity.

Shen Lian did not give him a chance to appreciate the power and said, ”We will move now to Taiyi Peak.”
