Chapter 51 The Essence of the Wisdom-forsaking Technique (2/2)
By four p.m., Xiao Chen finally woke up in a daze and felt headache. He had the same feeling every time after he drank, even for a cup of wine.
”Are you awake?”
Bai Ying stood straight on the top of the cliff with both hands on her back and her dress dancing with the wind. Xiao Chen looked in a vague vision, mumbling, ”Master... Is it you?”
Bai Ying turned around and looked at him. Xiao Chen now became fully sober and smiled awkwardly, saying, ”Sorry... My fault.”
”From tomorrow, I'll start training you. You should move to the Moon-watch Peak. Now go home and get prepared.” Bai Ying swung her sleeve and flew away.
”By the way, if you can't ride on the sword, let Cheng Ying send you down. Don't fell off and kill yourself before your duel with Mo Yu. That'll be a joke.”
The sound and her figure faded away slowly. Xiao Chen shook his head and smiled before he took out the Unsullied and rode on it toward the Sunset Peak.
Back on the Sunset Peak, Xiao Chen had many things to do. He could not bring Lil Ruo to the Moon-watch Peak, so he had to ask the three elders to take care of her. He would be undoing his cultivation for a few months, so he had to arrange everything properly. He decided to leave the Zither in the yard, so as to let Evernight take care of Lil Ruo.
The news regarding his duel with Mo Yu six months later had spread throughout the Three Pure Sect. Everybody in the Inner and Outer Gate knew it now, that the duel would be a life and death battle.
The moon rose to the top of the mountain in the night, and the moonlight was as clean as water, shrouding the entire Lingtai Mountain. Everything looked quite mysterious. In a yard on the Black Dragon Peak, the candlelight was still on. The two people who sat face to face were Chu Hanyan and Yang Shaochen.
”Do you really think that there was a huge Earth Spiritual Meridian under this mountain?” Yang Shaochen looked at the beating candle fire and asked.
Chu Hanyan nodded and said, ”It can't be wrong. Otherwise, there would not be such abundant Spiritual Qi in the Lingtai Mountain. It's a pity that those old guys don't know how to utilize it.”
Yang Shaochen shook his head and said, ”Just now, I went down there. There were a few formidable formations of forbiddance. If I hadn't quit in time, my body and soul would have been destroyed.”
Chu Hanyan raised her head and said, ”It must be left by the Sect Leader. Zi Xu, this old Daoist really is something. We're lucky that he's not here.”
”Is he very strong?”
”What do you think?” Chu Hanyan sighed suddenly.
Yang Shaochen brow furrowed and said after a few whiles, ”By the way, when I was down there, I felt that a piece of Divine Sense was locked on me. Was it your Second Martial Uncle? I don't think that he's able to do this.”
”It can't be Xingzhen Zi.” Speaking of this, Chu Hanyan's face changed and she said, ”Was it... Shaochen, you can leave here tomorrow. I'll take care of this place.”
Yang Shaochen noticed her serious looks and asked no more. He said, ”Well then, you take care of yourself in these months. I'll send men to bring elixirs to you. By the way, why are you helping that Mo Yu this much? Is he really just your junior brother?”
Chu Hanyan looked at the wick and said, ”I'm afraid that you still don't know his true identity. That Xiao Chen was just humiliating himself. As for Bai Ying, I've long hated her...”
”Xiao Chen... I felt that this person is not simple.” Yang Shaochen narrowed his eyes.
”Humph. You think too much. It was true that the Xiao Family was the strongest among the six ancient families. But the true Xiao Family had long perished. The current Xiao Family in the Violet Manor is nothing but an ordinary ciltivators' family. As for that Xiao Chen, he is nothing but a normal kid from a martial art family in this Human World.”
...
The next morning, after everything was ready, Xiao Chen went to the Moon-watch Peak on his sword. Bai Ying was already waiting for him on the Fullmoon Cliff. When he arrived, he was stunned to see two hill-sized black rocks there. He said in surprise, ”Holy... Was there a rain of meteorites last night? Where did they come from?”
”Your knowledge is so limited. They are two pieces of black iron ores. It took me much effort to move them here.”
”Two pieces? Two hills I reckon.”
Xiao Chen could not imagine how a delicate woman like her managed to move these two huge things here.
”Kid, stop talking nonsense. Now, take them as Mo Yu and punch them.”
”Okay”
Xiao Chen immediately walked to the black iron ores on the left, ran all of his True Energy, and punched out with Gold Break. With a rumble, nothing happened on the black iron ores; instead, his arm was numb under the impact.
Bai Ying shook her head and said, ”Now, do you know how weak you are?”
”...”
”All right. Let me introduce the Wisdom-forsaking Technique now. Know this, after you undo your cultivation, your strength will definitely surge, and you will keep doing this. It's just like a cultivator conducting deliverance by weapons to enter the Samsara. Every time after he does this, his cultivation will definitely be stronger than that of his last life. Until one day, he breaks the limitation of life and death, and then becomes an Immortal...”
Xiao Chen was quite confused. But he had gotten the main picture. It was just like making steel. A fine piece of steel must be refined many times. ”Only she can try this kind of creative cultivation method. Did she create this method under desperation?”
Ordinary cultivators thought that strength grew with cultivation levels, but she went into a circle at a certain level and did not stop doing this until she could not improve at that level. So, if she cultivated all the way to Core Forming Realm like this, she could defeat anyone at the same level.
”Don't think that it's easy. Let me tell you, that when you are undoing your cultivation, you can't have any sympathy. Otherwise, you will fail, which will lead you to Qi Deviation. This is the true essence of the Wisdom-forsaking Technique,” said Bai Ying seriously.
