Chapter 164 Changshou’s Reverse Teaching Method
The feeling that Li Changshou had become even more intense…
He had received orders from the Saint after paying respects to the Taiji Painting. Then, he was sent to the painting by the word ‘go’. At that moment, he received an accurate order…
It was not the orders of the Saint!
The Dao Message of the Grand Pure One: “Not my thoughts, not my doings, not my evilness or kindness, not my coming and going.”
From that alone, Li Changshou could completely suspect that he was being controlled by the Great Daoist Master!
Most importantly… Li Changshou looked at the transcendent-grade Sensing Stone that was tied to his wrist.
From the moment he first entered that place, the rock flickered.
There was a powerful but concealed immortal sense that was watching him.
Compared to the effects of the Mountain River Small Country painting, he would occasionally sense that his immortal senses were different.
That immortal sense was directly locked onto him…
Unfortunately, even if the Great Daoist Master had instructed him behind his back, he could not disregard the Great Daoist Masters orders. Moreover, there was no way to investigate that matter.
The Great Daoist Master was also his backer. He could only treat the tasks as a protection fee that he had to pay…
Actually, Li Changshou could guess that there was another reason why the Great Daoist Master was causing trouble. It was because of the decree just now.
Showing the prowess and might of Ren School?
Why would Ren School need to do that?
No one dared to provoke the Grand Pure One and the Great Daoist Master Xuan Du would not need to go through a tribulation. Most of the Qi Refinement cultivators knew about the mysteriousness of Ren School. Those facts alone were already enough to prove the might of Ren School.
Li Changshou continued hiding in the water and pondering…
Not far away, Xiong Lingli was running over with the Immortal Hammer on her shoulder and the corpses of the two demonic beasts on her back. As she ran too quickly, she caused a trail of dust to form.
Li Changshou observed her for a while when he was in the water and quickly came up with an idea.
He could make a big deal out of the words ‘Show The Prowess Of Ren School’. As long as he could let Ren School show off its power and shine during the Three Sects’ Meet, that would be enough.
He did not need to take action personally if he wanted to achieve that goal.
Li Changshou unleashed his immortal senses to search for the… Toxic Junior Sister whom he had discovered several times before and often shunned.
One Dharma treasure was obviously not enough for what he had to do next.
In the blink of an eye, Li Changshou found Youqin Xuanya, who was fighting demonic beasts three hundred kilometers away.
Near Youqin Xuanya, there were a few male disciples from Ren School who were cooperating with Yougin Xuanya and fighting with the two demonic beasts…
It is noteworthy that those disciples were not from the Immortal Du Sect.
Li Changshou’s eyes lit up. He pasted a few Divine Movement Talismans and Lightweight Talismans that he had just drawn on Xiong Lingli to reduce her physical exertion when she was traveling.
Then, he used his escape technique and rushed towards Youqin Xuanya.
It was safer to get the professionals to steal the limelight.
Not long later…
“Junior Sister Youqin?”
Senior Brother Changshou!
Youqin Xuanya, who was fighting the demons with her sword defense, immediately turned around and looked in the direction of the voice.
However… she saw the senior brother whom she had been worried about, standing on a tree a thousand feet away. His long hair and the corner of his Daoist robe fluttered in the wind. He was smiling at her calmly.
At that moment, Youqin Xuanya’s heart was filled with joy. There was a hint of happiness and restraint on her slightly sweaty face, but she could not hide her smile.
The flowers in her heart bloomed slightly. It felt like there were only two of them.
Suddenly…
“Junior Sister Youqin, help! We can’t hold on any longer!”
“Fellow Daoist over there, please come and help. These two demonic beasts are very powerful!”
Without Youqin Xuanya’s flying sword to aid them, the male disciples instantly retreated and could only shout loudly.
Youqin Xuanya quickly turned around. The sixteen flying swords burning with the Mystic Green True Flames whistled through the air again, suppressing the two demonic beasts once again. Li Changshou’s lips moved slightly. He was naturally sending a voice transmission to Xiong Lingli.
At that moment, he had already touched the young and burly girl who was standing behind the two demonic beasts. She raised her immortal hammer in her left hand and held a long fork in her right hand. She suddenly dashed out of the forest and shouted, “I’m a disciple of Ren School, Xiong Lingli. I’m really awesome at killing demons!”
Outside the treasure map, Great Daoist Master Xuan Du, who was sitting on the cloud, almost laughed out loud when he heard Xiong Lingli’s yelling.
Ahem I must act, dignified, cold, and have the demeanor of an expert…
In the painting, Xiong Lingli, who had finished shouting her slogan, leaped up. The Immortal Hammer in her left hand charged up lightning bolts. She threw the long fork in her right hand and stabbed it into the back of a three-headed demonic leopard!
In the blink of an eye, a few shouts could be heard. The young female Magihuman jumped up and two demonic beasts, which were comparable to the Essence Immortals of the human race, quickly died and fell on the ground…
The few male disciples looked at Xiong Lingli, who was bathed in blood and hurriedly bowed to express their gratitude.
Xiong Lingli did not even look at them. The clay fork in her hand turned into quicksand and scattered. She carried the immortal hammer and ran back to her Sea God’s side. She smiled happily.
“Senior Brother Changshou!”
Youqin Xuanya circled the flying swords around her. She did not bother to rest and quickly welcomed Li Changshou.
The male disciples frowned.
How could Li Changshou not see through their intentions?
However, he really needed Qin Xuanya’s help now. He cupped his hands and bowed. “Thank you guys for taking care of my Junior Sister.”
The male disciples knew their place and bade farewell.
Youqin Xuanya said, “Senior Brother, I helped them just now. You don’t have to thank them.”
Li Changshou was rendered speechless.
“Junior Sister Youqin, everything in the world is about knowledge. Getting along with others requires knowledge as well. Even if you’re immortal, you shouldn’t neglect the way of getting along with others. After all, humans and living beings go hand-in-hand on the Immortal Path.”
Youqin Xuanya and a Great Daoist Master who did not have a specific name nodded slowly inside and outside the painting respectively. Youqin Xuanya thought to herself, Senior Brother’s words are memorable. I should remember them.
Great Daoist Master Xuan Du was one of the few experts in the Dao Sect. His thoughts were naturally different from Youqin Xuanya.
Little Changshou’s words are quite well-said. They make sense after I think about them carefully.
Inside the painting, Li Changshou said, “Junior Sister, follow me first. This is not a good place to talk.” “Yes.” Youqin Xuanya nodded slightly and bowed to Xiong Lingli. She shouted, “Greetings, Aunt-Master.”
Xiong Lingli blinked and was at a loss. Her face was filled with confusion.
How did I become an Aunt-Master…
The relationships between the people around the Sea God are so messy.
Li Changshou brought Youqin Xuanya and Xiong Lingli to a bamboo forest. He took out three meditation cushions and the three of them sat down.
“Junior Sister.” Li Changshou looked at the Sensing Stone on his wrist and said with a smile, “I have an idea to boost the prestige of our Immortal Du Sect in this painting that we’ve entered today.”
Youqin Xuanya nodded immediately. “Senior Brother Changshou, just give me your instructions.”
Li Changshou said, “You’re currently at the eighth stage of the Dao Requital realm but you’re not the strongest person in this painting. I’ve already sensed the aura of a Perfected Immortal before. However, with Lingli around, the effect that the two of you can achieve is no less than that of an expert.”
Youqin Xuanya frowned. “Senior Brother Changshou, what do we have to do?”
“Get famous.”
“Famous? Why?”
Li Changshou sighed and said, “Junior Sister, why is our Immortal Du Sect ranked last in Ren School?”
He continued, “It’s because we are in the East Continent. We are not famous enough. Those good-looking talents who want to become disciples and seek Dao can’t even hear the reputation of our Immortal Du Sect.
The best way to improve the strength of our Immortal Du Sect and even the Ren School is to increase our reputation and build up the image of an Immortal Sect. That way, more and more immortal seedlings would be accepted as disciples. Then, they would be able to be the one out of a thousand people that get picked to be groomed by the superiors.
We don’t need tens of thousands of years. It will be effective in a few thousand years.”
After saying that, Li Changshou could not help but diss, “Of course, the system of Dao companions must be suppressed appropriately.” Youqin Xuanya thought about it and nodded slowly. “Senior Brother, I understand.”
Outside the painting, a certain Great Daoist Master fell into deep thought when he heard those words. Soon, he could not help but nod in approval.
What he said made sense. It was also what he had neglected previously…
In the painting, Li Changshou managed to convince Youqin Xuanya effortlessly. Then, he began to announce his “Star Creation Plan”.
“Firstly, the fastest way to become famous is to form a group. By using the advantages of the other members, you can make up for each other’s shortcomings and promote each other to attract attention. At this moment, Lingli’s advantage is that she kills the demonic beasts quickly. Junior Sister Youqin, your advantage is that you’re good-looking… and you are talented! The two of you will form a pair and sweep the demonic beasts in the painting. This is the first step to becoming famous!”
Youqin Xuanya immediately nodded in agreement. Xiong Lingli, who was beside her, also nodded profusely.
“Senior Brother Changshou, why can’t the three of us form a group?”
Li Changshou thought, Have you seen any men in a girl group?
“I need to protect all of you,” Li Changshou said seriously. “I need to set the best path to get rid of demons for you guys. I need to make preparations and provide you with pills and talismans.”
Youqin Xuanya’s eyes were filled with dissatisfaction. She said softly, “Senior Brother, you’re always like this. You’re always doing everything for us to enjoy the credit.”
Li Changshou stood up and smiled. “Reputation is nothing to me. I only care about longevity. Come on, we’re pressed for time. Let’s try to work together on the way. I will use Earth Escape to stay underground and scout for you. The two of you need to work together to make up for each other’s shortcomings and exhibit your strengths. Junior Sister Youqin, refine these poisonous powder on your flying sword and use it as your trump card. Lingli, these are Lightweight Talismans and Divine Movement Talismans. They can increase your running speed by several times. Get used to them first before we set off.”
Youqin Xuanya and Xiong Lingli immediately stood up and agreed. Li Changshou waved his long sleeve and quickly… burrowed into the ground.
A moment later, the duo that had been paired together made a dazzling appearance in the painting! Xiong Lingli sped on the ground. Youqin Xuanya rode her sword and flew in the air. She followed Li Changshou’s instructions and arrived at the first place where the demonic beasts and Qi Refinement cultivators fought. Xiong Lingli leaped up and shouted in the air, “The disciples of Ren School are here to help!”
The immortal hammer smashed down and the flying sword shuttled back and forth. Before the demonic beast could react, it had already been smashed to the ground by Xiong Lingli’s hammer. Its demonic soul had also been pierced through by the Fire Qilin Immortal Sword. After doing all that, Xiong Lingli shouted, “Helping people is to protect the righteous path. The Ren School is good at exterminating demons!”
Then, Youqin Xuanya slowly descended and stood on Xiong Lingli’s raised arm. Her black hair danced in the wind, and immortal swords surrounded her. She did not say a word, but she was stunning. She entered the arena, killed demons, shouted her slogan, and posed. Youqin Xuanya then said coolly, “Let’s go.”
The two of them headed towards the next “stage” via flying and sprinting respectively. Only a few disciples were left in confusion. They had no idea what they had just experienced… Just like that, under Li Changshou’s guidance, the two of them swept through the place and appeared everywhere. After killing the demonic beasts, they did not snatch the treasures. Instead, they simply walked by and
posed.
In just six hours, the two of them had killed more than a hundred demonic beasts and left a deep impression on the hundreds of Qi Refinement cultivators.
Outside the painting, there were more discussions about the disciples of Ren School.
Among the two of them, the one who was most famous was not Xiong Lingli, the “nemesis of demons”, but the “Aloof Fairy” Youqin Xuanya.
That was enough to prove that a pretty face was not the only important thing in the Primordial World…
A good figure mattered too.
“Did Teacher ask me to come here so as to tell me all these things through Changshou?” On a cloud high in the sky, the lonely Great Daoist Master Xuan Du had a serious expression.
Li Changshou’s words to Youqin Xuanya echoed in his heart. The Great Daoist Master was filled with enlightenment. It’s better to not do anything than forcibly try to do something. It’s better to not fight than to insist on doing so. During peace, I can find nature. All the Dharmas will return to a wonderful state in the end.
Teacher, do you want me to experience this?
Xuan Du heaved a sigh of relief. His Dao realm was actually rising slightly.
Instead of forcing Little Changshou into the Tushita Palace, he might as well watch the changes quietly and wait for him to enter the Tushita Palace…
At that moment, Master Xuan Du did not know what to say when he looked at Li Changshou. He could only sigh.
After observing Li Changshou’s actions and words, Great Daoist Master Xuan Du had already acknowledged him as his future junior brother. However, he knew he could not force Li Changshou to enter the Tushita Palace…
Forget it, let him be. Teacher will make arrangements for everything.
Great Daoist Master Xuan Du stood up and bade farewell to Guang Chengzi and Daoist Duobao. He took a step forward and silently disappeared.
However, before the Great Daoist Master, he left behind a trace of Dao runes and used the ‘Gaining insight in heart’ method that the Grand Pure One had taught him, to pass it to Li Changshou.
Li Changshou, who was using his escape technique underground in the painting, heard a sigh in his heart and immediately sensed the Dao runes.
Li Changshou hurriedly jumped out of the soil and bowed towards the sky. Before he could stand up straight, Great Daoist Master Xuan Du’s words had already spread slowly in his heart.
“Changshou, I was the one who asked you to come to this grand meet. I originally planned to let you become famous earlier so that you can enter the Tushita Palace as soon as possible and help me handle the teaching matters. However, I have seen many things and learned a lot from you after observing your words and behavior. I’m ashamed, so I won’t force you anymore. I’ve already returned to continue my seclusion. You can continue cultivating in the Primordial World. There’s no need to force anything. Let nature take its course. You can just follow your heart. I hope that you will remember your words today. I hope that you will not taint the world’s reputation and focus on pursuing longevity. I’m very relieved to have you in Ren School.”
Li Changshou was rendered speechless.
A gust of wind blew past his back and took away three or two yellowed leaves…
Li Changshou’s lips twitched violently as he carefully thought about the words left behind by the Great Daoist Master. He seemed to have lost all his strength and knelt down…
There seemed to be a pitiful tune of an Erhu playing beside his ear…
What the hell!
What have I done previously!?!
It was an opportunity!
It was the greatest opportunity in my life!
If I had known that he would be able to enter the Tushita Palace to cultivate after making a name for himself in the Three Sects’ Meet, why would I have gone through so many twists and turns?!
Wouldn’t it be over if I just revealed my true cultivation level and trumped the disciples of the three sects!?!
Great Daoist Master, Great Daoist Master, why did you go around the bush? If you asked me directly, I will definitely nod and agree to it ten thousand times!
If he wanted to give this promise a deadline, I would definitely say, “Hundreds of millions of years!”
Can I do it again? I would definitely… walk the most ordinary path of gaining fame!
Could it be that I’m not fated?
Li Changshou knelt there, his face full of despair. His heart was gloomy, and he let out a breath of turbid air. His entire body was gradually swallowed by a feeling of helplessness…
His eyes filled with tears because of his deep love for Ren School of the Primordial World…
“Senior Brother Changshou?”
Youqin Xuanya and Xiong Lingli were rushing over from behind.
Seeing Li Changshou squatting there and looking extremely disappointed, Youqin Xuanya hurriedly flew down.
At that moment, the mysterious Dao runes around Li Changshou slowly dissipated. One of them happened to pass by Youqin Xuanya.
Youqin Xuanya frowned slightly as she felt a sense of enlightenment in her heart. She took a step forward and stood on the spot. However, she fell into a rare epiphany in her cultivation…
