Chapter 193: How to crack the Jade Purity Heart Technique

The first official position he got was Deputy Director of the Ministry of Rites, which was something Li Nuo had never expected.

Unexpectedly, after becoming the top scorer in the imperial examination, he lost the freedom to choose his official position.

But it's not a big problem.

If nothing unexpected happens, he won't have to worry about his life span for at least a few years, and he won't have to go to the Ministry of Justice so urgently.

To take a step back, etiquette is also law.

With the Dhamma in his heart, the Ministry of Rites did not affect his practice.

He first went to Prince Chun's mansion to see how the gift for his wife was going.

Li Yun was indeed a genius of the Mohist school. Li Nuo only briefly told him the principle of the music box and he was able to make a prototype.

Li Yun can handle the transmission part by himself, but Li Nuo needs to participate in the music part.

He stayed in the palace for an hour, checked some details with Li Yun, and then returned to the Song Mansion.

There is a festive atmosphere in the Song Mansion today.

My second uncle, Song Lian, was promoted from the sixth rank of Yuwenlang of the Ministry of Rites to the fifth rank of Cheng of the Ministry of Rites.

Taichang Temple is one of the Nine Temples, in charge of rituals, music, ancestral temples, and sacrifices. It has one Taichang Temple Minister, two Vice Ministers, and two Secretaries.

The position of the Taichang Temple Secretary in the Taichang Temple is much higher than that of the Ministry of Rites Yuanwailang in the Ministry of Rites.

The next day, the imperial commission was also delivered to Li's house.

Just as my father-in-law said, Li Nuo is about to serve as the Deputy Minister of the Ministry of Rites, and he needs to go to the Ministry of Rites to take up the post before July at the latest.

Li Nuo was not in a hurry to take up the office. After officially taking office, he would have to punch in every day like his second uncle and others, work for ten days and take one day off, returning to the status of a worker in his previous life.

He still has three months of leisure time.

His wife's birthday is in a few days, and he has to prepare the gift before her birthday.

In the next few days, Li Nuo went to Prince Chun's Mansion almost every day.

In fact, Li Yun had already made what he was asked to do at the beginning.

Seeing that there was still time, Li Nuo worked harder to improve it and made further improvements based on the first edition.

After leaving Prince Chun's Mansion, Li Nuo went to Yuyin Pavilion again.

My wife doesn’t have many friends, and Fenghuang is one of them, but she hasn’t been to the Song Mansion much recently.

When Li Nuo is not at home, only Mu'er is with his wife.

It is a coincidence that the two pairs of twins in the Song family, Mu'er sticks to his wife, while Ning'er is closer to her lover. The elder sisters get along well with each other, and the younger sisters get along well with each other, and they don't bother each other.

A moment later, on the second floor of Yuyin Pavilion, Li Nuo took a sip of tea and casually asked Fenghuang, "Is Yuyin Pavilion very busy recently? I haven't seen you go to Song Mansion."

While pruning the branches, Fenghuang said, "There are things in the pavilion, such as the nightingale and the mandarin duck. I was afraid that if I went to the Song Mansion too often, Miss Jiaren would be unhappy, so I didn't bother her anymore..."

Li Nuo was slightly stunned and asked, "Why is the beauty unhappy?"

Fenghuang sighed softly and said, "Every time I go to the Song Mansion, Miss Jia Ren is very cold to me. I think she probably doesn't like me. After all, the rumors about me and the young master were so widespread before... If I were her, I would definitely be unhappy."

Li Nuo had to explain for his wife and said, "Well, you really misunderstood her. It's not that she doesn't like you. She is cold to people because of her practice."

No wonder Phoenix misunderstood.

Before knowing the truth, even Li Nuo had doubted himself countless times.

She wasn't targeting Phoenix.

But be equally indifferent to everyone.

After listening to Li Nuo's words, Fenghuang was shocked and said in disbelief: "What? Miss Jiaren is practicing the Jade Purity Heart Technique. Who is so vicious that he actually taught her such a dehumanizing technique?"

Li Nuo asked his wife about the Jade Purity Heart Technique, which was taught to her by a masked woman when she was a child.

During those years, the masked woman would come to the Song Mansion once a year to check on her practice.

She never appeared again until she was twelve years old.

The identity of the masked woman is not difficult to guess.

He certainly doesn't want to marry his daughter to his mother-in-law.

What surprised Li Nuo was that Fenghuang was a weak woman who had never practiced martial arts, so how did she know the Jade Purity Heart Technique?

Li Nuo looked at her and asked doubtfully, "Have you heard of Yuqing Xin Jue?"

Fenghuang came back to his senses from the shock, took a sip of tea, and then said: "I've heard from the old abbot before that the Jade Purity Heart Technique is the top-level mental method of the Jade Purity lineage of the Sanqing Sect. The higher the martial arts talent, the greater the effect of practicing the Jade Purity Heart Technique. However, this method has a flaw. That is, during the practice, one must maintain a very yin body and cannot get married. Moreover, to practice this method, one must be pure-hearted and abstinent. After a long time, one will lose the emotions of ordinary people..."

Recalling her experience with Song Jiaren, she suddenly realized something and said, "No wonder..."

Realizing something, he looked at Li Nuo and murmured, "Then you guys..., what are you going to do? You can't wait until she breaks through the sixth realm, right?"

Li Nuo asked in confusion: "What is the sixth realm?"

Fenghuang explained: "The reason why the Jade Purity Heart Technique has so many restrictions is because of the Jade Purity Qi in her body. After breaking through the sixth level of martial arts, she can comprehend the power of heaven and earth without the need for Qi. Naturally, the many previous restrictions no longer exist."

Li Nuo asked: "Did the old monk also say this?"

Fenghuang lowered his eyebrows slightly and said, "In his early years, the old master traveled to various countries to make a living. It is reasonable that he has more experience..."

Li Nuo asked expectantly, "Did the old master say that in order to crack the Jade Purity Heart Technique, besides breaking through to the sixth level, is there any other way?"

Fenghuang thought for a moment and said, "Yes, but that method is more difficult than breaking through the sixth realm. Each technique occupies different meridians in the human body. After practicing the Jade Purity Heart Technique, you can no longer practice other techniques. But if you can create a technique that occupies exactly the same meridians as the Jade Purity Heart Technique, you can perfectly switch techniques and continue practicing..."

Li Nuo never expected that his visit to Yuyin Pavilion would bring him unexpected gains.

Although both of these methods of cracking are difficult.

But no matter how difficult it is, it is better than having no solution.

The agreement between him and his wife was for one year.

If there is no solution within a year, she will give up martial arts.

From Li Nuo's perspective, he certainly doesn't want his wife to give up her dream.

Either help my wife break through as soon as possible, or find a technique to replace the Jade Purity Heart Technique. As long as I have a direction, all that's left is to work hard.

Finally, Li Nuo looked at Fenghuang and said, "Thank you so much, you helped me a lot this time!"

Fenghuang smiled gently and said, "You are welcome, sir. You have helped us a lot. I am very happy to help you. If you need my help in the future, please feel free to ask."

Li Nuo said embarrassedly: "There is indeed something I need your help with. If Yuyin Pavilion is not busy, I hope you can go to the Song family to accompany Jia Ren more often. After all, apart from you, she has no other friends..."

Phoenix smiled slightly and said, "I understand."

Watching Li Nuo leave, she sighed softly and said with envy: "God really favors Miss Song to have a husband who loves her so much..."

Nightingale also sighed and said with some regret: "Mr. Li is good in every way, but it's a pity that he can't fight..."

Fenghuang looked at her with contempt and said, "You crude warrior, what do you know? His hands are for playing the piano and painting, not for drawing a bow or holding a sword. If I had a husband like him, I would definitely protect him and not let him lose a single hair..."
