Chapter 373: The Boundless Taiyin

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Daoqing was dead, it was unsure if Yuming was dead or alive, the whereabouts of Huanzhen and the twelve Powang disciples were also unknown, they were most probably dead.

Lingguang was overwhelmed with sorrow. She just saw the hope of her sect finally began prosperously, why did it have to vanish so quickly?

Technically, she would not be controlled by these negative emotions but when these emotions came together, she could not hold it in anymore and her body actually started burning in fire.

If everything went well, she would soon be burned to ashes by this fire.

However, an extremely cold Qi poured from the top of her head and instantly suppressed the internal heat.

It was Shen Lian who initiated the Ice Light.

When Lingguang regained her consciousness, she heard Shen Lian saying, “Your trial of Dao is triggered earlier than expected. But what surprises me was that your first trial of Dao was not trial of Divine Thunder but a trial of Divine Fire.”

Shen Lian stared at Lingguang with amused interest. The pure expression in his eyes seemed to be able to see through the ins and outs of Lingguang.

From the expression in his eyes, Lingguang realized the things about Guangqing that she was talking about just now but it did not touch him at all.

Shen Liang changed the topic of the conversation and said, “But this trial of Dao of yours was triggered by internal heat, and so it is reasonable that you faced the trial of Divine Fire. And let me guess, in Guangqing, there shouldn’t be anybody who had been through this trial of Divine Fire, am I right?”

Lingguang was shocked, “How do you know about this?”

Although immortal Zhenren did not have worries about their lifespans they would have to face three trials of Dao, which were Divine Wind, Divine Fire, and Divine Thunder. The first trial of Dao was usually the trial of Divine Thunder. One would encounter this approximately five hundred years after he or she had become an immortal Zhenren. This was the easiest trial of Dao that they could overcome.

As for both the Divine Wind and Divine Fire, they were intriguing.

To be precise, these two trials of Dao were actually mother wit, they happened from within. The time it appeared could be as short as within one to two hundred years or as long as within thousands of years. There was no fixed timing. Once it got triggered, if the person could not take it, it would be prolonged.

If there was no method found to overcome it, the trial of Dao would be like a malignant tumor in mortals, they would not go away but gradually spread to the entire body and could not be cured.

Although Lingguang’s trial of Dao was temporarily suppressed by Shen Lian’s Ice Light, the symptom had started and if there was no way to overcome this, it could only be prolonged to the point that death was the only unavoidable outcome.

Even for the immortal Zhenren of four main Daoist sects, these trials of Divine Wind and Divine Fire were considered so terrifying that when they mentioned about this, their expressions would change instantly.

Of course if one managed to overcome this trial of Dao, he or she should not expect that their power would increase significantly. This was a trial from the God, there were only punishment and no reward.

According to the saying, ‘follow the nature to be a mortal, go against the nature to be a celestial’, those who attained immortality had actually violated the Mother Nature’s taboo. How could they still enjoy any blessing after overcoming the trial of Dao?

Shen Lian said, “From what you were saying about how Guangqing endured great hardships in pioneer work and had high aspirations, I could already guess this point. We definitely have to compete for Dao but your sect has been too extreme and cruel, it is contrary to the natural rise and fall. In the progress of perfecting the methods of martial exercise, you’d have unknowingly planted bad temper. Even if you were to break away from whims, it wouldn’t be eliminated. Thus, when you really encounter the trial of Divine Fire, it would be the death of Dao. However, you Guangqing had not produced more than ten immortal Zhenrens in total and your sect hasn’t existed for more than thousand years, it’s normal that you wouldn’t have thought through about this issue. If you hadn’t met an ingenious chief like Zhenren Yuming, if it’s replaced by a conservative and vigilant person, your sect would start to go downhill. However, a thousand years later, the disciples of later generation would be able to get rid of the bad temper, even if your sect couldn’t make it to the four main Daoist sects, it would definitely be able to maintain eternity, passed on from one generation to another.”

“The battle of Dao was very intense. My Senior Apprentice-Brother wasn’t wrong. He was just lack of some good luck. Now that we’ve lost, the victor becomes king whereas the loser becomes a bandit. Even if what you’ve said doesn’t make sense it would all make sense by now,” Lingguang’s beautiful eyes were looking coldly at Shen Lian.

Shen Lian smiled with style, not wanting to express any opinion.

He knew that although Lingguang refuted his statement, her heart must have believed it.

Because even if what the winner said did not make sense at first, it would end up to make sense, was it not a truth after all?

This was the peak of the altar which was already shrouded in a thin layer of mist. This was not supposed to happen at this place, but because they were at the universe’s void, and they were right behind the star which had blocked the Real Fire of the Sun. Besides, the void also did not have air and dust particles thus it could not contain any heat energy. Therefore, it would be way colder here compared to the mortal’s Arctic.

This mist should have already formed ice crystals.

In the midst, under the withered jade tree, an appalling Qi dynamic suddenly exploded, that was when grandmaster had exercised his art to the deepest.

When the Qi dynamic started spreading, a majestic force cold to the core had flown out. It had an ancient smell.

When Lingguang faced such extraordinary force, she could not even resist at all. A thin layer of frost was formed on the altar.

As for the Celestial Trapping Sword on Shen Lian’s knees, it shone red glow which separated the two of them from the force and thus they were safe and sound.

Shen Lian gazed through the thin layer of mist and his sight landed on the grandmaster who had an exquisite appearance. Her skin was rosy and translucent and her brows were frowning. She was extremely attractive.

At the same time, Gu Caiwei who was spectating the battle of mana between disciples looked up to the void, she felt odd as though there was some kind of vibration at an external distant outer space that caught her attention.

Then she looked at her Junior Apprentice-Brother who was sitting quietly and closing eyes and he was not breathing at all. If someone who did not know what was going on witnessed this, the person must have thought that he was already dead.

Gu Caiwei did not want to wake his Junior Apprentice-Brother up because of her feeling that she felt out of nowhere. She continued to observe the disciples who were battling. At this moment, it was Daoist Yu’s disciple, Jia Yili, displaying exquisite Thunder Technique as though the lightning produced by the technique was dancing, looking splendid.

Ruoxi was the one who commented first and she said, “This person’s showmanship is not bad.”

Her words made Gu Caiwei split her sides. If that fella had heard this, he might be so angry that his hands would tremble and that he might make mistakes when displaying the Thunder Technique.

“Master, someone’s going to succeed again. It’s only been a few years. Nowadays things happen so rapidly,” said the single-limb Monk Huike who was playing chess with Daoist Liuqing in Zizai Temple.

“This vital force looks like Qing Xiao’s,” Daoist Luiqing spoke with hesitation.

Huike looked shocked and asked with curiosity, “The one from Qing Xuan?”

“Cold to the core with a unique sword aura, it’s definitely her. I didn’t expect that she could disregard Ziling to succeed alone. What’s going on? If this is the case, I’m afraid we have to expect there’d be a lot of troubles soon,” Daoist Liuqing sighed.

Huike made the sound of mantra filled with benevolence.

In Xuantian Sect, Song Qingyi who just came back from outside was filled with dust. There seemed to be bloodstain at the edge of his shirt that could not be removed. He went to Lu Jiuyan’s residence and he saw his mentor standing by the stream, looking at the sky.

He asked in curiosity, “What are you looking at, Honored Master?”

“Three thousand years in Xuanmen, this is the first time somebody successfully learned The Boundless Taiyin. When she’s able to finish learning The Boundless Taiyang too, there’d be someone who can finally discuss Dao,” Lu Jiuyan chuckled.

Song Qingyi’s face was filled with horror. The throne that his master dominated first had been with him for such a long time. Even those who had completed their cultivations to be celestials or even the old monsters who could transcend beyond the mortal world at any time were nothing in his Honored Master’s eyes. Now that this person might be able to sit by his Honored Master to discuss Dao, he was really curious about who this character was.
