Chapter 18 Night Talk and Beating

"Junior brother, have you told these things to anyone else? Including Qingfeng and Mingyue." Yi Chen asked Qingyunzi seriously.

He thought more deeply than Qing Yunzi. He believed that his junior fellow apprentice lived up to the Taoist name given to him by his master and would surely rise to a high position in the future.

However, a genius who has not grown up, no matter how outstanding his talent is, will be nothing more than a handful of dust if he is killed in his childhood.

A tree that stands out in the forest will be destroyed by the wind.

Yi Chen has a deep understanding of this.

I think he was too good in his previous life, so he was sent to this world by a dump truck...

"Ah... no, I've always wanted to wait for Senior Brother to come back and tell you first. I didn't tell Qingfeng and Mingyue." Qingyunzi looked at Yi Chen with a serious face, a little surprised.

"That's good, Junior Brother. You don't know how dangerous the world is."

"The mastermind behind the attack on my Hidden Dragon Temple has not yet been found. If others knew about your talent, I'm afraid you would be assassinated."

"this……"

"But it doesn't matter. Come closer and listen. I don't understand the Pure Yang Dao, nor do I know how to practice the Taiyin force, but I can teach you the method of Gou Dao. If you follow my instructions, you will definitely have fewer disasters and calamities and enter the realm of the True Lord directly."

In this world, Taoist practice generally has four major realms: refining essence into Qi, refining Qi into spirit, refining spirit into emptiness, and refining emptiness into harmony with Tao.

Those who refine their spirits and return to emptiness can be called True Lords.

Yi Chen's master claimed that he had only barely reached the middle stage of Qi Refining and Spirit Transformation, and was still a long way from reaching the realm of True Lord of Taoism.

The realm of True Lord is the realm of cultivation that countless masters of cultivation dream of.

Qing Yunzi's eyes lit up when he heard this: "Brother, is this Gou Dao really so powerful? Why haven't any sages mentioned it in my ancient books?"

"Hehe, that's certainly amazing. Master just doesn't know how to hide behind evil spirits. He wants to fight any evil spirit he sees, so he died before his lifespan is up. You should listen to me, Senior Brother."

"Thinking of Li Changshou... Never mind. You won't understand what I'm saying. Just remember the twelve-character tenet of Gou Dao."

Yi Chen cleared his throat when he spoke here, and Qing Yunzi tactfully brought him a cup of tea. He then continued:

"These twelve words are easier said than done. You must remember them."

"Play the pig and eat the tiger, stay away from the cause and effect, and avoid danger when you are aware of it."

“Talent only represents your potential. A genius who dies young is still just a pile of rotten meat.”

"Brother, come with me. Today I will teach you what a brutal beating is."

"Brother, what is the world's brutal beating?"

"Don't worry, you'll know soon."

….. …..Half a quarter of an hour later, outside Yinlong Temple.

Qing Yunzi fell to the ground on the grass with a bruised face and nose. Yi Chen was shirtless, with bulging muscles all over his body. The air was filled with pure yang energy of lavender. The moonlight formed a large shadow behind him.

"Junior brother, have you realized it? Are you still complacent and think you are very strong? Throughout the ages, there have been many geniuses, but how many have become true masters? "Look at you, junior brother, you have awakened both spiritualities, and your future achievements will definitely far exceed those of me, senior brother, but now you are still being pinned to the ground and beaten by me, senior brother?"

"The beatings in this world are more cruel than what you get from me, brother." Yi Chen taught him earnestly.

"Impossible, absolutely impossible. My internal energy from Xiao Chunyang Gong has been partially converted into pure Yang power. How could I be completely powerless to fight back?" Qing Yunzi hurriedly spat out the dust and weeds in his mouth, with panda eyes, and an expression that clearly showed that he was doubting his life.

Yi Chen performed several bodybuilding poses for Qing Yunzi under the moonlight and said, "That's because, Junior Brother, your purity is too low! Look at these big muscles, Senior Brother."

Qing Yunzi: “…”

"Brother, stop joking."

"Okay." After posing for a few times, Yi Chen put away his playful expression and said seriously, "In fact, with your current strength, you shouldn't lose so badly."

"You were restrained at the beginning, and even more fussy when fighting. You were also distracted during the battle. What were you thinking about?"

"Even a lion will use all its strength to fight a rabbit. Fighting is not a competition to show off your skills. You can poison, throw lime, spread animal traps, fight with brass knuckles, sneak attack, siege, kidnap others' families and threaten them. You may encounter all kinds of despicable means you can think of and you may not think of."

"With your current fighting skills, it's only a matter of time before you capsize in the gutter."

Under the moonlight, Qing Yunzi showed a thoughtful look, then nodded slowly, and bowed deeply to Yi Chen with a respectful look: "Thank you for your advice, Senior Brother."

What you learn from books is always shallow. Qing Yunzi grew a lot after being beaten, and he also thought a lot.

The eldest senior brother is worthy of being the eldest senior brother. He is indeed well aware of the principle of pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger. He used to think that the eldest senior brother was an ordinary person with some natural supernatural powers who had only barely cultivated to the second level of Xiao Chunyang Gong. He didn't expect that the eldest senior brother was actually hiding so deeply.

And the strange lavender internal energy from the eldest senior brother gave him a feeling that was both familiar and strange.

"Hiss, could it be that the eldest brother has pushed the Little Pure Yang Kung to the fifth level, which is unprecedented and will never be surpassed?"

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Qing Yunzi looked at Yi Chen, who was tall under the moonlight, with his eyes wide open, speculating secretly in his heart.

"Is this what it means to pretend to be a pig and eat the tiger? Senior Brother, I understand." Qing Yunzi gently patted the dust off his clothes with both hands.

Yi Chen walked to Qing Yunzi and put his big hand on his shoulder. He couldn't help but rub the big bump on Qing Yunzi's head, which made Qing Yunzi grimace in pain.

"Junior brother, you are rising in prominence. You are extraordinary." Yi Chen said with a hearty laugh.

"Remember what my brother said tonight. Once you get angry and start fighting with others, don't be merciful. Being kind to the enemy is being cruel to yourself."

"You must practice well. In the future, Hidden Dragon Temple will still rely on you to take the lead."

The two talked as they walked, and soon they came to the edge of the courtyard wall. The moonlight was shining, and half of Yi Chen's face was exposed to the moonlight, and the other half was hidden in the shadow formed by the wall, which made him look a little weird.

Qing Yunzi stopped, squinted his panda eyes, raised his head and looked seriously at Yi Chen who was as strong as a bear, and said word by word: "Big Brother, don't worry, I will find Yangquan to clean your mark even if I have to go to the sky or the underworld."

"Yangquan is the most yang thing in the world. It will definitely help you, Big Brother, return to normal."

Seeing Qing Yunzi's serious look, Yi Chen was a little touched. He couldn't help but pull the big bump on Qing Yunzi's head again: "Good! You have ambition!

"When you become a True Lord, bring Senior Brother with you, and we'll kill monsters together. Remember, after you beat those monsters half to death, let Senior Brother come to finish them off, so that Senior Brother's love for you will not be in vain."

"Hiss, Senior Brother, please be gentle. But why should you, Senior Brother, finish off the enemy? It doesn't matter who kills us."

"Of course it's different. Just think of it as Big Brother doing a lot of bad things in his previous life. He's afraid that his merits are not enough, so he's accumulating some merits for his next life."

"Oh, big brother, I'm not afraid. I have a lot of merits. If you want to deduct anything, just deduct it from me."

"Good boy..." Yi Chen opened his eyes for the third time, and then he rubbed Qing Yunzi's head again, and then said, "It's getting late, Junior Brother, go back to your room and sleep."

Watching Qing Yunzi's back as he left, Yi Chen raised his head, looked at the full moon above his head, and murmured to himself: "Don't worry, no matter what monster wants my life, he will have to pay a price."

"Give me some time, you Hades. I will tear down your broken house sooner or later."

Yi Chen clenched his fists fiercely towards the full moon. His aura suddenly became extremely violent. The moonlight made his shadow very long, like a human-shaped demon.
