Chapter 115: Chapter 114: Eldest Senior Sister, Have I Learned It?_1
Translator: 549690339
When Daoist Buyu learned that he had the opportunity to be released, he was so eager that he almost kneeled down to ask Lu Yang to become his master. Lu Yang was so frightened that he quickly said that it was not necessary.
Upon discussing his ideas with Daoist Buyu, the Daoist agreed that Lu Yang made a lot of sense.
“Indeed, we have overlooked the role of publicity. Mortals know too little about cultivation, the Five Great Immortal Sects, and the other sects.”
Daoist Buyu stroked his beard in thought, “Writing a narrative about the Seek Dao Sect, this is indeed a technical task, let me ponder about it.”
“Our Seek Dao Sect has a history of 120,000 years, which can be divided into three stages: the founding by Daoist Xiantian, the recognition as one of the Five Great Immortal Sects by Celestial Master Guiyuan, and the revival by Vast Sea Daoist Lord. Each stage has countless stories worth telling, the creation story of Daoist Xiantian alone has a lot of interesting details.”
Lu Yang thought to himself that Daoist Buyu truly deserved to be the master. He managed to glamorize Daoist Xiantian’s wandering experience into a noble journey exploring the world. This skill alone was worth learning from him.
“Of course, we can’t ignore the recent developments, they’re the main focus.
For example, regarding me, it can’t be said that I was simply brought back by Old Three. Instead, it should be changed to a tale of a naturally born hero who came into the world holding a sword with the symbol ‘kill’ on it…ahem, I’m just joking, we won’t really say it that way.”
Confronted with Eldest Senior Sister’s icy gaze, Daoist Buyu quickly retracted,
“I will surely provide precise descriptions, without any falsehood!”
Daoist Buyu negotiatively said, “Dear disciple, could you please release me first? In order to write this tale of how the Seek Dao Sect defeats demons and supports the Righteous Path, it’s crucial to consult your eight uncles who were the main actors of these events. It will surely enrich the content.”
Yun Zhi, felt his argument was reasonable this time, and prepared to release her master.
Then Yun Zhi promptly left. Daoist Buyu became anxious and shouted, “Dear disciple, you haven’t released your master yet!”
Without looking back, Yun Zhi replied, “If you meditate in your abode for three days, the barrier will naturally fade away.”
Lu Yang thought to himself, ‘So, despite being confined for ten years, the master couldn’t meditate consistently for three days. No wonder Eldest Senior Sister is reluctant to release him.’
Lu Yang trotted quickly to catch up with Eldest Senior Sister, earnestly saying, “Eldest Senior Sister, I’d like to learn a magic skill that I can use with my mouth.”
“Why is that?”
“I found out that during battles, my feet can evade and attack, my hands can hold the sword and deploy hidden weapons, but my mouth is the only part that is not being used.”
“Just imagine, while we’re at a deadlock with our enemies, weapons clashing, unable to get the upper hand, suddenly deploying a magic skill using my mouth to catch them off guard, that would surely secure our victory!”
Yun Zhi couldn’t comprehend Lu Yang’s reasoning of being “at a deadlock with an enemy,” because her battles were always a sweeping victory. But if Lu Yang was willing to learn, she had no reason to stop him.
I have a technique that allows you to spew golden energy from your mouth after mastering it, which can easily cut through anything. It requires Golden Spirit Root as the body affinity, while your Sword Spirit Root can also manage, but it requires stored energy accumulation. During the accumulation period, you can’t make any other movements.”
Lu Yang shook his head, “Too restrictive. It might be useful for ambushes, but rarely useful in open combat.”
How about the Samadhi True Fire? You store up energy in your abdomen and then spew out the Samadhi True Fire from top to bottom. It can’t be extinguished unless doused with magical water. Yet, it’s difficult to master. It could take several months of practice, and you’ve never learned any Five Elements Magic Skill before, so I don’t know about your natural talent in this aspect.”
Suddenly, Yun Zhi became silent as she remembered that the first Five Elements Magic Skill Lu Yang learned was Shrinking Earth.
Lu Yang was thrilled. It was the famous Samadhi True Fire! Of course he would seize the opportunity to learn it, and if he failed, at least he would have no regrets.
“I want to learn Samadhi True Fire.”
Seeing that Lu Yang made his choice, Yun Zhi didn’t stop him and led Lu Yang to the place where he first started his cultivations.
Over here, Lu Yang lifted the jar to catch tofu, successfully guiding the spiritual essence into his body, which held great sentimental value for him.
Yun Zhi calmly explained, “The so-called Samadhi True Fire, which consists of divine, pure, and human fire, is similar to the categorization system of the River Spirit’s axe.”
“The heart represents the ruling fire or divine fire, also known as the Greater Obscurity; the kidney represents the ministerial fire or essence fire, also known as the Middle Obscurity; the bladder, which is the sea of qi below the navel, represents the earthly fire, also known as the Lesser Obscurity.”
“When using the Samadhi True Fire, you should focus on your heart, kidneys, and bladder.”
“I have already told you, you must keep the water in your kidneys full at all times. The reason lies right here. The human body consists of five elements, and most Five Elements Magic Skills rely on the five organs of the human body, which makes keeping your kidneys full exceedingly important.”
“I’ll demonstrate it for you, watch closely.”
Yun Zhi aimed at a large tree. She opened her mouth and spewed out Samadhi True Fire. The large tree which was about an arm’s length thick was instantly turned into ashes. Lu Yang didn’t even have time to react!
This was the result of Yun Zhi trying her best to reduce the flame’s power. If she harnessed her full power, even the existence of Sky Gate Mountain might be doubtful.
“Have you learned it?”
Hesitating, Lu Yang knew that Eldest Senior Sister’s teaching methods were always mysteriously unpredictable, and the key lay in one’s perception. “Let me give it a try.”
He had created the “Mind Seeing Method”, which allowed him to see things more clearly. Therefore, he was determined to learn the magic skill taught by Eldest Senior Sister.
It was time to show off the power of his self-created method!
Lu Yang channeled his inner spiritual essence, focused it on his heart, kidneys, and bladder, and forcefully spewed it out, his saliva shot three meters away!
“Samadhi True Fire!” Lu Yang was not discouraged, he shouted loudly again, and his saliva shot another three meters away!
“Ptui!”
“Ptui!”
Lu Yang continuously attempted the magic skill and ended up with a dry mouth after spitting so much.
Indeed, Samadhi True Fire was difficult to learn.
Seeing how hard Lu Yang was working, Yun Zhi handed him a gourd. Lu Yang took a sip and found it unbelievably sweet, just like a fine wine.
” What is this water? It’s so sweet!”
“Sugar water.”
Lu Yang: “…”
Could sugar water be anything but sweet?
Honing his perseverance, Lu Yang kept trying from noon till evening.
Eventually, he gradually grasped the knack of it.
“This time it definitely will succeed. Samadhi True Fire, spew!” Lu Yang summoned all his strength, gathered his full spiritual essence, cycled his major and minor energy channels, and spewed out fiercely. A blazing fire burst from his mouth, burning the tree and making it crackle with sound!
“I did it!” Lu Yang beamed with joy, realizing that he indeed had a knack for learning magic skills. He had mastered the skill that was supposed to take several months in just an afternoon.
Yun Zhi, who had been watching from the side, felt something was not right about the fire. Ignoring the high temperature, she walked up and pinched a bit between her fingers and tasted it.
“Sweet?”
Why would a flame have a taste?
“Try it again.”
Lu Yang still didn’t understand, but he spewed out the true fire again. Yun Zhi tasted it once more, “Salty?”
“Try it one more time.”
Upon tasting again, Yun Zhi said, “Spicy?”
After multiple attempts, Yun Zhi found that the fire Lu Yang spewed out was very powerful, but had a unique taste. If it wasn’t sweet, it was salty, or it was spicy.
With a cheerful spirit, Lu Yang ran over and asked, “Eldest Senior Sister, did I master it?”
Yun Zhi looked at Lu Yang with a strange expression, “Yes, you have, but what you’ve mastered is the Three-flavored True Fire.”
“Three-flavored True Fire?”
