Chapter 469: Talking to Heaven
“Talking to Heaven…reasoning?” Lu Xun chewed over what his teacher had said, his eyes wide open in amazement.
Just as the gentleman said before, the Way of Heaven is the supreme existence, a kind of rule. It has no mercy, and in its eyes, all things are equal, so naturally, it is impossible for it to listen to reason.
Therefore, what the gentleman meant by "reasoning" was definitely not something directed at the Way of Heaven, but was just the same kind of "reasoning" that he did in his daily life!
“Sir, then…what next?” Lu Xun, like the Second Senior Sister, was a little stuttering.
"Then I became a useless person ." The gentleman smiled carefreely, as if he didn't take it too seriously.
Lu Xun then remembered that his master had lost all his cultivation due to some special reasons after the ancient catastrophe, and then he started to cultivate again, practicing the [Eating Breath Art] and the [Unnamed Five Elements Kung Fu].
It turns out that the so-called special reason is actually because of the way of heaven!
The gentleman did not describe the specific process, but the result still sounds tragic.
Lu Xun recalled in his mind: "If I remember correctly, the master told me outside the [Big Study] that day that he had become a useless person after losing all his cultivation, and that he needed Gui Bo to take care of his food, clothing, shelter and transportation. So it seems that not only has his cultivation been lost, but his body should also be seriously damaged."
The master continued to look up at the sky and said, "You know what happened later. Your uncle started to create a method for me, and I started to practice again."
“It took too long to retrain this time, but fortunately I became more advanced in the end.”
"Then, your uncle and I discovered a new problem." said the gentleman.
"What's the problem?" Lu Xun asked.
"That is the limit of ordinary practitioners." The Master said calmly: "At that time, I had already reached my own limit."
He took two steps forward, stood beside the stream, and explained to Lu Xun: "Before me and your uncle, the mainstream practice method in the cultivation world was to refine Qi, and we practice eating Qi."
"From the perspective of limits, the limits of Qi Refining are actually further away, because the total amount of spiritual power that a practitioner's body can withstand always has an upper limit. The so-called creating a world of one's own is too difficult, at least I can't do it." said the gentleman.
Hearing this, Lu Xun nodded slightly. In fact, this is easy to understand. It is like an empty bottle used to hold water. Once it is full, it is full. There is always a limit.
He glanced at Lu Xun and said, "On the contrary, you have used your body to refine the sword and strengthen your body. Perhaps you can go further than me in this regard."
Lu Xun showed a modest smile on his face, thinking in his heart: "Is this new model that I stumbled upon by accident so awesome?"
The gentleman continued to talk about the past, saying, "When I reached the limit of my cultivation, I discussed it with your uncle, and finally, we set our sights on the most mysterious place for cultivators - the Qi Sea."
Hearing this, Lu Xun immediately understood and asked, "Sir, is it... [luck]?"
The master showed a teachable expression, nodded, and said: "That's right, the Qi Sea cannot store spiritual energy, but it can store [Qi Luck]. For example, your current [Sword Luck] is a kind of [Qi Luck]."
Lu Xun felt that his master and uncle were just tinkering with him like crazy.
One dares to innovate, the other dares to practice.
It’s true, the two of them are a perfect match, one is a scholar and the other is a warrior. The innovative one can always come up with new ideas, and the practical one was actually completed by him!
Lu Xun muttered in his heart: "And he is so careless, isn't he afraid of going astray?"
But after thinking about it carefully, he felt that the ideas of his master and uncle were correct.
Since the amount of spiritual power that can be stored in the body has reached its limit, it is difficult to make any further breakthroughs in this regard. It would be better to try to absorb some power other than spiritual power!
And the luck in the sea of qi, from a status perspective, is actually one level higher than spiritual power.
At this time, Lu Xun couldn't help but think of the towering pillar of energy on his master's body!
Compared to his Qi column, Lu Xun's [Sword Luck] seemed insignificant.
Moreover, Lu Xun could sense that the energy column of the master was very complex. It was impossible that it contained only the [Sword Luck] that he had personally admitted to. There must be others!
Soon, the gentleman gave his own answer.
"Xiao Wu, although your uncle is not very talented in cultivation, he is good at using swords, which is what is now called a [natural sword fetus]."
"I am different from him. I don't have much talent in swordsmanship, but I can learn other techniques quickly."
“But it is precisely because of this that I cannot achieve perfection.”
"Just like when I practiced swordplay and absorbed sword luck from all over the world, it was precisely because I couldn't achieve perfection that I couldn't retain too much sword luck."
“Therefore, we decided to absorb more diverse areas and more types.”
Lu Xun: “…”
There is so much information in just a few sentences!
Lu Xun originally thought that the master and disciple being twin sword twins was unprecedented, but he did not expect that his uncle and the Patriarch Jianshan were the master and disciple twin sword twins!
What you said, sir, is even more intriguing.
He can even imagine the scene in his mind!
The gentleman first absorbed [Sword Luck], and kept absorbing it. He felt that he had reached his limit and faced the same problem as when he absorbed spiritual power.
Although he can understand things quickly, he does not have the ultimate talent. It feels like he has [Sword Aptitude 9].
Then, the master began to practice with spears, halberds, talismans, and the like, and began to try to absorb the rest of the [luck]!
“What you said, sir, does it mean that except for the [Kendo Aptitude], all his other aptitudes are 9?” Lu Xun quantified the sir’s talent in his mind.
This gave him the feeling that it was like a combination of [Sword Art Qualification 9], [Gun Art Qualification 9], [Talisman Art Qualification 9]... a whole host of qualifications in one!
“It’s so terrifying! How many special attribute points does this person have?” Lu Xun was extremely envious.
Although he now possesses a variety of special attribute points, most of them are below 5 points and are still very low-level.
The master looked up at the sky and said, "In the blink of an eye, I don't know how many years have passed. By then, I had developed my sea of qi to its limit. There is so , and I have absorbed all that I can."
Lu Xun: “…”
“Sir, you’re awesome!” Lu Xun shouted in his heart.
It’s just that the gentleman has said so much in one breath, but he still hasn’t talked about the Way of Heaven.
I think all these training processes are paving the way for the second "reasoning" with the Heavenly Dao.
Next, should be the climax of this past event!
As Lu Xun expected, what the teacher said next made him dumbfounded again.
The master looked up at the sky at a 45-degree angle, doing what he thought was a very cool move, and said, "After I rebuilt, I first absorbed spiritual energy, and then absorbed luck. After absorbing a lot, your uncle and I had the same idea - can the way of heaven be absorbed?"
"During the final stage of the ancient catastrophe, the alien gods took away a small ray of Heavenly Dao power, which is your Heavenly Dao Pearl. This also made your uncle and I understand that Heavenly Dao is not as solid as a rock. It seems that we can give it a try."
When Lu Xun heard this, he felt his heartbeat slow down.
There is no need to say much about the result, sir, you are probably successful!
He ate a part of the Heavenly Dao!!!
Lu Xun didn't understand how he did it, but he did it!
The gentleman stopped looking at the sky and turned to look at Lu Xun.
This time, he no longer glanced away and then looked away. Instead, he stared at Lu Xun with a gentle look.
The master smiled and said, "Xiaowu, you ask me: Is there justice in this world?"
He said calmly: "It didn't exist before, but it exists now."
