Chapter 418: Questioning One’s Heart

Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations

Early in the morning.

A ray of sunlight shone on the peak of Violet Cloud Peak. The breeze was not dry as it slowly blew past.

Standing on the peak, Ye Qiu looked down at the vast land. Looking back at the past, it was like passing clouds.

Back then, on another mountain, there was often a sage-like old man sitting cross-legged.

Unfortunately, the past had passed and the old friends no longer existed.

Today was the thirty-first day of Ye Qiu’s devil training. He stood at the top of the mountain and quietly waited for the two petite bodies to run wildly in the mountain stream.

In less than a moment, they had reached the top of the mountain.

“Grandmaster, we’re here.”

After a month of contact, Little Mengli no longer had the fear she had at the beginning. A smile is always hanging on her face, and she looked sweet, obedient, and sensible.

Little Xuanyi, on the other hand, appeared very cold and taciturn. They were at two extremes.

One was chattering non-stop, while the other could not say a word from beginning to end.

Ye Qiu turned around and looked at them. He smiled and said, “Very good. Looks like you’ve all improved greatly after this month of training. Hmm… It’s time for you to come into contact with true immortal techniques.”

Their eyes lit up when they heard this. Even the usually reclusive Little Xuanyi revealed an excited gaze.

Little Mengli was even more excited. “Yeah, Grandmaster is finally willing to teach us immortal techniques. I want to learn the most powerful immortal techniques. Just like Grandmaster, I want to sweep through the world with my sword.”

Her ambition was very great. Perhaps it was because she had heard many things about her grandmaster during this period of time that she was greatly affected. She also wanted to become a sword cultivator like her grandmaster.

Ye Qiu only smiled. He agreed with her ideals because he was also a sword cultivator. The greatest reason why inheritances were inheritances was because there was a successor.

How could Ye Qiu refuse if she wanted to become a sword cultivator?

“Haha… Alright, as long as you want to learn, Grandmaster will definitely teach you the strongest sword technique and make you the strongest swordsman in the world.”

Ye Qiu habitually drew a big picture and then said, “However, before that, you need to understand something.”

His tone gradually became serious. Their hearts trembled and they revealed serious expressions.

Ye Qiu said, “If you want to cultivate the Immortal Dao, you first need to understand one thing. What is an immortal?”

As soon as these words were spoken, their hearts trembled and they fell into a long thought.

“What is an immortal?”

Little Xuanyi was indeed someone who had been nurtured by many elders of the Heaven Mending Sect. He more or less had his own opinion. Then, he said, “To stand up for the world and benefit all living beings, to bless all living beings, to enjoy the worship of all living beings, to open peace in the world, that is an immortal.”

Ye Qiu was very satisfied with his answer. At least… his original intention had never changed, be it in his previous life or this life. This was also the philosophy of the Heaven Mending Sect. As the Little Martial Uncle of the Heaven Mending Sect, he should bear this responsibility.

Ye Qiu nodded and said, “Very good. I’m very gratified that you have such awareness. I hope that in the future, you won’t change your original heart and advance courageously.”

After saying that, she looked at Little Mengli. Her eyes were a little dull, and it was obvious that she had yet to think through this question.

Ye Qiu looked at her worriedly. He didn’t interrupt her thoughts and just watched.

After a while, she looked at Little Xuanyi and then at Ye Qiu. She was a little hesitant. Perhaps she knew that what she said was not as good as Little Xuanyi and felt a little ashamed.

However, she still said her opinion, “Grandmaster, I don’t have such noble ambitions. I only want to make myself stronger so that I can protect the people around me and stop them from being hurt.”

This was the truest thought in her heart.

She came from suffering. In the beginning, she entered the immortal mountain to obtain immortal techniques so that she could go down the mountain to find her parents. Later on, after staying on Violet Cloud Peak for a while, she gradually liked it and gradually understood that this was her second home.

She only wanted to protect this place and the grandmaster who doted on her the most.

This was her most direct thought. As for the common people… she could only do her best.

After hearing her answer, Ye Qiu nodded. Everyone had their own selfish motives.

Compared to Xuanyi’s answer, he preferred Little Mengli’s answer.

When one was helpless, they should not involve the common people. That way, they would not be an immortal, but a saint.

“Haha,” Ye Qiu smiled faintly and gently stroked her little head. “Very good. Grandmaster is very satisfied with your answer. There are thousands of Dharmic Dao in the world. Everyone’s understanding of the Dao is different, and their opinions are different.

“The vast world is unpredictable. It’s difficult for people to ask their hearts what they want the most between innocence and chaos.

“The reason why I asked you this today is to let you remember what your original intention was after you stepped onto the long path of immortality in the future.”

At this point, Ye Qiu’s eyes darkened as he thought of something. Shaking his head, he said, “Questioning yourself and your Dao is also a part of cultivation. You can choose your own path in the future. Alright, sit down. Today, I’ll teach you the Dao Sowing technique.”

As soon as these words were spoken, the two of them instantly became excited. They imitated the adults and sat cross-legged between the cliffs.

Ye Qiu smiled at the two little fellows in front of him and took out two pills from his storage jade. This was the Spirit Injection Pill that he had specially refined for the past few days to open up the spiritual energy in their bodies.

According to past practices, they had yet to complete their foundation and could not cultivate immortal techniques.

At this age, the only thing they could do was refine their bodies. However, if they walked the path of Ye Qiu using their bodies as a seed, they wouldn’t have so many requirements.

What Ye Qiu needed to do was open all the meridians in their bodies and plant the Dao Fruit.

Ye Qiu stuffed two pills into their mouths and said, “Swallow it and don’t be distracted! Defend your source and recite the mnemonic I taught you a few days ago.”

The two of them didn’t dare to be careless. They followed Ye Qiu’s request and began to chant the incantation in their hearts. It was a mental cultivation technique that Ye Qiu had specifically made for the Dao Sowing.

As soon as they ate the Spirit Infusion Pill, their faces instantly turned red and a shocking power surged into their bodies.

It quickly flowed between their limbs and bones, wreaking havoc. At first, the two of them could not withstand it. Their bodies swayed and they almost fainted.

Fortunately, after a month of training, their physical potential had been developed to the limit, so they could still hold on.

Seeing their expressions change, Ye Qiu gently patted their backs.

Two forces surged into their bodies at the same time. Through his inner sight, Ye Qiu could clearly feel the change in their auras.

Under the effect of the Spirit Injection Pill, in less than a moment, the prefecture sea in their bodies had gradually taken shape, and a huge Life Spring appeared.

“Damn, as expected of a genius. This starting point is too high.”
