"It cannot be spoken! It cannot be spoken!"
With a flick of his sleeve, Tianhe silenced Bai Cang completely.
He adopted a mysterious and enigmatic attitude.
Then, patiently explaining, "I am the true self, but the true self is not me."
You can understand it this way: I am just a thought of the true self, or something like a dream, regret, or obsession.
But I can't say for sure what it is; to say it would be wrong, to think it would be a fallacy!
Upon hearing this, Bai Cang suddenly let out a long breath, feeling a strange sense of peace.
His mindset was like that of someone who suddenly inherited the last legacy of a former richest man after his downfall, thinking he had hidden it well, only to be exposed by someone else.
Then, it was suddenly discovered that the other party was the current richest man and had no particular interest in the "former richest man's" estate.
In this situation, Bai Cang naturally felt only relief and gratitude.
As for ideas like "Don't underestimate a young man's potential," "Thirty years west of the river, thirty years east of the river," and "He can be replaced."
At least for now, it absolutely cannot happen.
Wei Junjie is a pragmatic person!
Thinking this, Bai Cang felt much more relaxed, as if he had been granted a pardon.
"It is the greatest honor for your disciple to become your student!"
Bai Cang bowed respectfully and uttered his heartfelt words.
This gratitude and relief are absolutely genuine.
This might even be one of the few truly honest words Bai Cang has uttered since his transmigration.
No! Among his pitifully few honest words, this was the most sincere one!
"Don't even try! I advise you not to dream of taking advantage of the situation!"
Tianhe waved his hand repeatedly, "Let's not even talk about the fact that I can't represent the Venerable One at all. Even if the Venerable One agrees, I advise you to think twice before acting, lest you end up in trouble."
Bai Cang agreed repeatedly, but inwardly he was rather skeptical.
With such a thick thigh right in front of me, how could I not hold on tight?
Oh, am I a pig?
Even if I can't cling to the real person's coattails, this teacher in front of me is a close friend.
If I can't hold onto the real person, surely I can hold onto the leg of my "dear teacher"?
Although limited by his cultivation level, realm, and insight, Bai Cang could not determine what realm "Teacher Tianhe" was currently at.
However, even by his most conservative estimate, the opponent still possessed at least pure Yang combat power.
Aside from the "supreme creation" who controls the universe and a very few "immortal beings," who else could be stronger than him?
"Most of my relatives and friends have been guided out of this universe, while my enemies and foes have mostly remained in this universe."
As if guessing Bai Cang's thoughts, Tianhe said with a half-smile, "I will stay in this realm for at most another thirty or fifty years, and the time I stay in this universe will never exceed a thousand years."
"If others knew you were my apprentice, what do you think the consequences would be?"
Upon hearing this, Bai Cang was struck dumb.
It was as if a bucket of ice water had been poured over my head, and my eyes became clear.
I've already begged for mercy!
The "Teacher's" true enemy and nemesis is at least a pure Yang being, or even an immortal being.
He hasn't even achieved the primordial spirit yet, how can he withstand it?
What happened to the rule of "not extending blame to family members"?
Moreover, so the root cause of our lineage's poor interpersonal relationships lies with "you," right?
Bai Cang couldn't help but grumble inwardly, but he only dared to grumble a little bit.
He even used a respectful term, which made him seem incredibly cowardly.
"You have a long way to go and a heavy responsibility to bear; you must strive to do your best!"
Looking at Bai Cang's "bitter face," Tianhe felt a sense of satisfaction from head to toe, and couldn't help but gloat, "Isn't it just about advancing to Pure Yang within a thousand years? Isn't that something anyone can do?"
"If you can advance to Pure Yang before I leave, I might even be unable to resist taking you as my disciple."
Then, before leaving, he could provoke a bunch of old bastards, give her a good dressing down, and also trick his "good apprentice" again.
It's a win-win situation!
Yes, he won twice in a row, no doubt about it!
"Thank you for your kind words, teacher. I hope you will continue to take good care of me."
Bai Cang said with a bitter face and helplessness.
Since things have come to this, let's eat first.
What else can we do?
You can't possibly host your own banquet and not even be able to eat four dishes, can you?
"If I don't take care of you, you'll never be able to attain the Nascent Soul stage in this lifetime!"
Who would have thought that Tianhe would roll his eyes and say, "You think I'm just lusting after your body?"
Yes, that's right, I really am craving it.
But if I don't take away your physical body, you'll have no choice but to follow the path of the Divine Sect and the Demonic Sect!
Upon hearing this, Bai Cang said urgently, "Aren't there many people who cultivate both Dao and Demonic arts?"
There are clearly many examples of people cultivating both Dao and demonic arts, so why is it that I am destined to have no hope of achieving the primordial spirit for the rest of my life?
"Others cultivate both Tao and demonic arts, but you've gone and cultivated both demonic and Taoist arts!"
Tianhe sneered, "Do you know why we only hear of people cultivating both Tao and demonic arts, but never of people cultivating both?"
Bai Cang suddenly realized, "Could it be related to escaping tribulation?"
Tianhe said, "It seems you're not completely stupid. The most crucial taboo of cultivating both Dao and Demonic arts is that you cannot cultivate your divine and demonic techniques to too high a level before you attain the Dao and the Primordial Spirit."
This is because the lineage of gods and demons is the true son of this world; not only do they easily attain longevity, but they also enjoy divine favor and are unlikely to suffer any calamities.
You haven't even faced your tribulations yet, so how can you escape them and repay the karma of this life?
Do you really think this old bastard runs a charity? Do you think you can attain enlightenment and spiritual cultivation without repaying the debts of karma?
Actually, Tianhe didn't say something else: It used to be possible, but ever since that certain person came along, that old bastard has become cunning!
Bai Cang suddenly understood upon hearing this, but had even more doubts. "But there are clearly precedents of gods and demons who cultivated the Xuanmen Qi Dao and attained the primordial spirit."
Furthermore, why does cultivating the Black Water True Method with a dragon's body also subject one to endless tribulations?
Bai Cang didn't dare to say it outright, but the implication was, "I suspect you're lying to me, and I have evidence."
The patriarch of the Myriad Manifestations Sect was none other than a suspected patriarch of gods and demons who switched to cultivating the Xuanmen Qi Dao!
Hearing this, Tianhe laughed in exasperation, “Others either attained enlightenment in ancient times or were willing to reincarnate and start over. Were you born a million years too early, or do you want to reincarnate and start over?”
As for the dragon's body, that's another taboo, involving many past events. Knowing too much won't do you any good.
You only need to remember one thing: Mixed bloodlines mean either meteoric rise or utter annihilation; there is absolutely no third possibility!
Bai Cang then shut his mouth, still somewhat doubtful.
After all, there's nothing he can do if he doesn't believe it; after all, the other party has the stronger fist.
Teacher Tianhe was willing to be patient and give him an explanation, which was a way of giving him face.
If we were to forcibly take it from him, what could he do?
If there's a way out, then gracefully accept it; otherwise, forcing others to save face for him would be far too undignified!
However, Bai Cang suddenly thought of something else, and his expression immediately became quite interesting.
"Wait, didn't you give me the Blackwater True Method?"
