Xuan Lingzi's words were like a bucket of cold water poured over Luo Jianqing's head.
Throughout Taihua Mountain, even the head, Venerable Hao Xingzi, knew nothing about the "Nine Lotus Heart Record," and Xuan Lingzi needed to retreat, so Luo Jianqing felt safe and bold in using the "Nine Heavenly Seizure Record." However, now Xuan Lingzi asked him, how did you win?
Luo Jianqing's body was stiff and he didn't know what to answer.
After a moment, Xuan Lingzi's calm voice sounded again: "I heard from the head brother that you used the sword technique of Nine Lotuses. That is a sword technique that can only be used in the Nascent Soul stage. Have you mastered it? Use it and show it to your master."
Luo Jianqing's entire body relaxed, his back already covered in cold sweat. He drew out the Frost Floating Sword and expertly executed the "One Sword Transforms into Nine Lotuses" technique. The Frost Floating Sword transformed into nine azure blades that fiercely stabbed at a peak across from Yuxiao Peak, sending rocks flying and mud and sand scattering.
Back in the Beidou Zhenjun's ruins, Luo Jianqing hadn't been able to skillfully perform this sword move. However, as he'd carefully studied the Nine Heavenly Seizures Record over the past six months, he'd discovered that the spiritual energy within him was vastly different from what it had been over the past thirty years.
According to common sense, Luo Jianqing was forbidden by the Heavenly Dao and had long been unable to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. However, after practicing the "Nine Heavenly Seizures Record," a mysterious power emerged in his meridians. This power swept across the earth, stripping away the spring and autumn of plants and trees, and even stripping away the Heavenly Dao's rules and restrictions on these plants!
With the help of these snatched rules, Luo Jianqing's body can compete with the Heavenly Dao for spiritual power.
Yes! I’m no longer taking it from you, I’m snatching it away from you!
"Nine Records of Seizing Heaven" is against the will of heaven, it is about seizing heaven!
After six months, Luo Jianqing had completely mastered the first level of the Nine Heavenly Seizures, but he could never comprehend the second level. Every time he practiced the technique, it would abruptly stop. However, the first level had already enabled Luo Jianqing to perform the Nascent Soul Stage's ultimate move, "One Sword Transformed into Nine Lotuses," across realms, without fail.
Seeing this, Xuan Lingzi nodded with satisfaction, gave a few more instructions, and then returned to his bamboo house to meditate.
Luo Jianqing stood in the moonlight, sword in hand, looking at the closed bamboo house with a complicated expression. Slowly, his eyes darkened, and Luo Jianqing narrowed them before returning to his room to continue his retreat.
Seven days later, Luo Jianqing received a message from the head master and prepared to set off for Liuyan Valley.
Zuo Yunmo was unable to go this time. He had overdrawn his spiritual power when he used the Qingyun Sword for the second time that day, and was also seriously injured by Luo Jianqing. Although Zuo Yunmo's body had almost recovered, for the sake of safety, Hao Xingzi did not allow his disciples to take the risk of Liuyan Valley again.
That morning, Luo Jianqing put his simple luggage into his storage ring. As he stepped out, before he could close the door, he suddenly saw a tall figure standing in front of his room. Luo Jianqing's heart paused, and he looked at Xuan Lingzi, who had emerged from seclusion at some point.
The master and the disciple stood in front of the bamboo house, neither of them spoke.
The breeze blew through the emerald green leaves in the bamboo forest, making a rustling sound, as if playing a light music.
After a long while, Luo Jianqing couldn't help but take a step forward and said, "Master, the head master has sent a message. I and other junior brothers and sisters will go to Changzhou under the leadership of Elder Shan and enter Liuyan Valley."
Xuan Lingzi seemed to have heard nothing. After Luo Jianqing repeated himself, he asked softly, "Jianqing, how is your practice of the Nine Lotus Heart Record going?"
Luo Jianqing was slightly stunned.
Xuan Lingzi turned to look at him, a bright light flashing quickly in his cold, narrow eyes. He spoke calmly, "For a cultivator, sword moves are secondary. What's more important is your cultivation method and whether you and your sword are in harmony. Liuyan Valley is no ordinary place. Since you're going there, I'll give you a gift today, a magical tool for your adventure."
Luo Jianqing asked in surprise: "Master?"
Xuan Lingzi suddenly waved his sleeves, raised his hand and grasped Luo Jianqing's waist, then transformed into a stream of light and flew out of Yuxiao Peak. He gently placed Luo Jianqing on the top of the side peak next to Yuxiao Peak, while he himself stood between Yuxiao Peak and the side peak.
The venerable man in white robes and wide sleeves stepped into the air and walked step by step towards the position between the two peaks.
Luo Jianqing looked at Xuan Lingzi's actions in a daze. He naturally knew what an "adventure magic weapon" was. In the past, when his junior sister went out on adventures, Venerable Yu Qingzi would feel very sorry for her and give her a lot of high-level magic weapons and elixirs, just hoping that this little ancestor would return safely.
But in the past, Luo Jianqing had experienced countless adventures and had never obtained any magic weapon.
Even if Xuan Lingzi didn't say it, Luo Jianqing understood that his master focused on the cultivator's own cultivation and did not like to rely on external things.
But now, Xuan Lingzi said he wanted to give him a magic weapon?
While Luo Jianqing was lost in confusion, Xuan Lingzi had already reached the center of the two peaks. A violent wind whistled between the two peaks, blowing Xuan Lingzi's long black hair and causing his robe to flutter in the air. Suddenly, Xuan Lingzi turned to look at Luo Jianqing, a graceful smile appearing on his handsome, indifferent face.
Xuan Lingzi sent a message: "Master will play a song for you to help you break through as soon as possible."
As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of Hua Ran's piano suddenly rang out.
clang!
Luo Jianqing opened his eyes wide in horror, staring at the scene in disbelief.
Xuan Lingzi flicked his hand, and a vast and majestic spiritual energy roared out, galloping between Yuxiao Peak and the side peaks, as if striking an invisible harp string. Luo Jianqing immediately walked to the edge of the cliff and looked down. Between the two peaks, he saw that golden spiritual energy had transformed into harp strings, gleaming with pure golden brilliance in the sunlight!
