Chapter 8, Li Po's Shackles Break, Unseen Throughout the Ages, He Should Cultivate the True Met
"So fast?"
Gu Xuan sat cross-legged on the couch, a hint of surprise rising in his eyes.
Since the heavenly calamity dissipated yesterday, and he returned to camp with the four demon generals, only twelve hours have passed at most.
The magic was delivered overnight.
Moreover, what made Mo Liqing, a renowned Xuanxian general who had guarded this region for many years, appear so solemn when handing over the jade slip?
The origin of this jade slip...
It's probably far beyond my imagination.
Gu Xuan slowly stood up, clasped his hands in a fist salute, and solemnly bowed to Mo Liqing.
"Thank you for your trouble, elder brother. I will remember it."
"but……"
"Why go to such lengths?"
Mo Liqing looked at Gu Xuan, shook his head with a wry smile.
He took a deep breath, a lingering fear flashing deep in his eyes.
"Brother, you might not believe it, but..."
Mo Liqing pointed to the jade slip on the table and lowered his voice.
"Last night, I used the Ten Thousand Mile Jade Talisman to inform the Grand Tutor of your situation, and it's only been an hour..."
As he spoke, he paused, his hand unconsciously clenching.
The Grand Tutor then replied.
"He also dispatched his trusted confidants to deliver this item day and night."
Mo Liqing swallowed hard, staring intently at Gu Xuan: "You should know that even a Golden Immortal would need more than half a day to fly from Chaoge to Xiqi at full speed."
"But the Grand Tutor actually sent someone to raid us overnight..."
Upon hearing this...
A flicker of emotion crossed Gu Xuan's eyes.
Grand Tutor Wen Zhong, who commanded the Shang army and whose power shook the world, actually valued him, a deputy general of Jiuli whom he had never met, to such an extent.
"Brother, do you know the true origin of this jade slip?"
Mo Liqing turned his gaze to the jade slip and said respectfully.
"I originally thought that the Grand Tutor would bestow upon you a top-tier external immortal technique."
"But I never expected..."
"What's being sent here isn't one of those miscellaneous outer sect texts that you can learn at will just by being registered as a member of the outer sect of the Jie Sect."
Mo Liqing extended a thick finger, pointing to the faintly interwoven lightning patterns on the surface of the jade slip, and spoke each word with a firm and resounding tone.
"But only true disciples of the Jie Sect who have truly entered the inner sanctum can touch upon the fundamental Daoist principles—"
"The Supreme Purity and Truth Secret!"
The four characters were spoken.
The air inside the tent seemed to freeze for a moment.
"The Grand Tutor's personal handwritten edict, the exact words of which were—"
Mo Liqing straightened his back, mimicking Grand Tutor Wen's imposing tone, and said in a deep voice, "The Nine Li have broken their shackles, a feat unseen throughout history! We should cultivate the true methods of my Jie Sect!"
Gu Xuan's pupils suddenly contracted.
The True Secrets of Shangqing!
The fundamental cultivation method for orthodox disciples of the Jie Sect?!
It points directly to the Great Dao of Sages, containing the foundational method of the Supreme Dao of the Celestial Venerable of the Pure Spiritual Treasure?!
Before Gu Xuan could even process this shock...
Mo Liqing's next words were like a heavy hammer blow, striking Gu Xuan's heart hard.
"Not only that..."
Mo Liqing stared intently at Gu Xuan, her eyes filled with intense envy.
"The Grand Tutor also said in his edict that after the matter of Xiqi is settled..."
"If you have time, you can visit the Grand Tutor's residence in Chaoge."
"If you're willing..."
Mo Liqing lowered his voice and uttered the last half of the sentence almost word by word.
"Grand Tutor can find you a second-generation disciple to become your apprentice and enter the Jie Sect!"
Upon hearing this, Gu Xuan was deeply moved.
To become a disciple of a second-generation disciple of the Jie Sect?
A being of the same generation as Zhao Gongming and the Three Immortal Maidens?!
Mo Liqing watched Gu Xuan's changing expression and couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
Although the four demon generals had been taught Taoist arts by extraordinary people and acquired several rare treasures in their early years, they eventually achieved their current status as Xuanxian (mystical immortals).
But ultimately...
It's still a crooked and unorthodox approach.
Such a thing as joining a legitimate religion is something I wouldn't even dare to dream of in my daily life.
And this new brother he recognized...
Not only did he receive Grand Tutor Wen's full support, but he was even given a spot as a disciple for three generations!
Really...
I'm so envious!!
Upon realizing this, Mo Liqing slowly stood up and patted Gu Xuan's shoulders heavily with both hands.
"brother!"
"Such an extraordinary opportunity must not be wasted on the Grand Tutor's kindness!"
Upon hearing this, Gu Xuan remained silent for a moment.
He looked down at his hands.
The calluses on my palms were from three years of fighting in Beihai.
The crimson dragon pattern on the knuckles was torn from the shackles of the Jiuli people.
The deepest scar on his chest was left from when he killed thirteen celestial warriors in a single day.
It's not that he's never seen good things before.
In the past, good things always came from other people.
And now...
It was his turn.
Gu Xuan slowly raised his head, looked at the jade slip on the table, nodded, and said.
"Gu Xuan will certainly not disgrace this Shangqing True Technique."
Seeing Gu Xuan's calm and composed demeanor, Mo Liqing's admiration grew even stronger.
Seeing this, he said no more and turned to walk out of the tent.
"Brother, the peerless divine spear you requested, the Dragon Horse of the East Sea, will be delivered to your tent tonight!"
"I won't bother you any longer, brother."
"You should carefully study and comprehend this wondrous Dharma of the Supreme Purity."
……
Inside the large tent, silence returned.
Gu Xuan's gaze was fixed on the jade slip on the table.
Without any hesitation, he directly extended a wisp of divine sense from between his eyebrows and pierced into the jade slip.
In an instant.
A massive and ancient flow of information surged into Gu Xuan's mind.
Mysterious and complex star charts and ancient seal scripts shimmering with celestial light constantly rose and fell and evolved in his sea of consciousness.
Its name is—
"Shangqing Dongxuan Yuchen Zhang"
The deeper Gu Xuan delved into the mystery, the more intense the shock he felt.
This technique is so profound that it's unbelievable; every word seems to point directly to the origin of the Great Dao.
It's just a few words recorded in a very superficial way...
All of them are more than a hundred times stronger than the "Nine Li Qi Cultivation Technique" he practiced.
However, according to what is described in the jade slip.
Once the "Shangqing Dongxuan Yuchen Zhang" is cultivated to its greatest perfection, the Three Flowers and Five Qi will be condensed...
Then one can travel unimpeded and directly reach the Great Luo Golden Immortal, who is indestructible and lives as long as heaven and earth!
"Thump!"
Suddenly, a muffled, strange sound exploded like a drumbeat.
Gu Xuan frowned and looked down.
A blazing, fiery red-gold light flickered incessantly at his chest at an extremely eerie frequency.
Immediately afterwards—
"Thump!"
"Thump!"
"Thump!"
My heart was pounding wildly.
The dull thumping sound even rippled through the air.
An indescribable, intense desire surged forth from the depths of the blood in every part of my body.
Gu Xuan could clearly feel it...
My own mutated Jiuli body, or rather...
The mutated crimson blood is craving the "Shangqing Dongxuan Jade Morning Chapter" with a frenzied and greedy desire!
"I want to eat..."
"Then you can eat your fill!"
Gu Xuan's lips curled into a smile as he suddenly formed a hand seal.
Following the first level of the mental cultivation method in the "Shangqing Dongxuan Yuchen Zhang", I circulated the magical power within my body.
……
At this moment, outside the camp.
Mo Liqing, who was preparing to protect Gu Xuan, suddenly turned around.
He stared in disbelief at the funnel of spiritual energy rapidly gathering above his head.
He sensed the terrifying aura emanating from within the tent, rising steadily and even faintly emanating from it, which made even a Xuanxian like him feel a chill run down his spine.
Mo Liqing's mouth dropped open, and his beard twitched violently twice.
"This kid..."
He gasped and couldn't help but swear.
"I'm just letting you comprehend the technique."
"You fucking altered cultivation techniques, and you still managed to cause this kind of commotion?!"
He looked deeply into the tent, shook his head, and chuckled helplessly.
"Never mind..."
"This kid is no ordinary person."
Mo Liqing quietly spread his divine sense, enveloping the entire camp area.
We must protect the Dharma...
Then protect them thoroughly.
