PS: This is an extra chapter for book friends Qing Si Cheng Yu and Liulian's year. Happy birthday to them!
Ning Wuming is a smart person, but at this moment, blinded by emotions, he is somewhat muddled. Or rather, it is precisely because he is so smart and sees too clearly, he knows that it is absolutely impossible to kill Qing Yu at the moment.
In the past, he could use excuses like "there's plenty of time" and "the timing isn't right" to patiently wait, but at this point, Ning Wuming is struggling to wait any longer.
Because of Qin Xihai's disappearance, this Divine Captor of the Six Gates truly can't bear it any longer.
Even though it's just a disappearance, the unease in Ning Wuming's heart hasn't diminished a bit. He even suspects that Qin Xihai has already perished.
Even Qing Yu did not expect that Qin Xihai held such a high status in Ning Wuming's heart, causing this smart person to lose his mind a little.
Earlier, Ning Wuming truly had the intention to force Qing Yu's hand, even slightly willing to risk his life to drag Qing Yu down with him.
"Emotions are not something that intelligence can easily see through." Qing Yu took a sip of osmanthus wine and said calmly.
The osmanthus wine was brewed personally by Xuanzhen, with a fragrant entry, deserving of being called a good wine.
"And you? You're also a smart person. Have you seen through it?" Xuanzhen gently lifted the Jade Pot and refilled Qing Yu's empty cup.
"Me?" Qing Yu chuckled, "I probably couldn't see through it before, so to prevent myself from getting lost, I created the Heavenly Human Rebirth Technique and cultivated the Heavenly Person's Heart Realm to make myself understand. Perhaps in the future, I will feel joy due to emotions, but I will not feel low due to loss. Or rather, loss cannot affect me, and neither can heartache."
Correctly speaking, it's not just negative emotions like loss; even positive emotions cannot fully affect Qing Yu.
Whether happiness or sorrow, there is always a thread of calmness in Qing Yu's heart maintaining basic rationality. He can enjoy happiness, but happiness cannot alter his mental state.
Overall, Qing Yu is someone who only wants the good and not the bad—a rather shameless person.
"Is that so?" Xuanzhen tilted her head slightly, revealing a charm never seen before, "You really are a heartless person!"
'Buzz——'
It felt as if a buzzing sound echoed in his mind, but the Heavenly Heart-like mental state made the influence of such emotions on his mental state almost negligible, yet the fleeting sense of beauty still made Qing Yu feel comfortable.
It must be said, today's Xuanzhen had a charm and allure unseen before. The jade-colored Daoist robe wrapped around her beautiful figure, and her slightly tidied long hair was casually draped along her face, looking lazy yet leisurely.
If it were someone else here, they might have been captivated by this astonishing charm. Unfortunately for Xuanzhen, Qing Yu, who understood romance but wasn't influenced by it, was with her.
"This is the necessary price to pay for getting to today. I relish it." Qing Yu said.
In fact, this isn't bad. This mental state ensures that Qing Yu will never lose his mind, and had he not cultivated this mental state, he wouldn't have been able to progress to his current level in just a few short years.
The system transmits Martial Arts Enlightenment, but if Qing Yu had rigidly accepted those enlightenments and been influenced by the emotions within them, though he would be strong, he would never be as strong as he is now.
"Never mind, you're just fine as you are," Xuanzhen said with a soft smile while extending her palm, "Let's start today's cultivation."
Qing Yu is an extremely disciplined person, and even when sitting idle, the True Qi within him is constantly circulating. Though the moonlight is beautiful tonight, this beauty cannot make Qing Yu stop in his tracks.
So...
Cultivation.
But today, Qing Yu has matters other than cultivation to attend to.
Reaching into his sleeve, Qing Yu took out the White Cloud Smoke Sky Crystal and handed it to Xuanzhen, "Take a look and see if this Heavenly Crystal is somewhat similar to your Taisu Primordial Skill."
Qing Yu had already perceived earlier that while the Heavenly Crystal appears crystalline, it actually bears a strong resemblance to the True Qi materialized by Xuanzhen's Taisu Primordial Skill.
After all, having co-cultivated with Xuanzhen, Qing Yu naturally could discern the peculiarity of the Heavenly Crystal.
Though it's called a Heavenly Repair Stone, the Heavenly Crystal is not impervious. In the original work, there was a case where a Mystic Universe Sky Crystal was shattered by the Reaching God Divine Palm.
But then Qing Yu thinks, if the heavens were so fragile, wouldn't the Reaching God Divine Palm create a pit with each strike, directly punching a hole through the sky?
A character like Nuwa has been unique throughout the ages. If a descendant of the Reaching God Divine Palm accidentally punched a hole through the sky, who would come to repair it?
Furthermore, the sky is formless and shapeless; how could it be patched with a single crystal stone?
Through various contemplations, Qing Yu ultimately concluded that the essence of the Heavenly Crystal is not solid but gaseous. While it appears crystalline, it reveals its true form only when transformed into a gaseous state.
This also explains why when the Mystic Universe Sky Crystal was shattered and embedded into Huang Fuji's body, it could aid in mastering the Mystic Universe.
Because it is not in its true form, the Heavenly Crystal can be shattered.
(PS: The Nuwa in the Emperor's Legend is different from the one in Divine Weapons Mysterious, so don't confuse the Heavenly Crystal with the Heavenly Crystal Sword.)
Xuanzhen received the White Cloud Smoke Sky Crystal and input True Qi to sense it.
Misty Cloud Qi exuded from the Heavenly Crystal, which began to glow, seemingly with some gas flowing within.
Qing Yu operated the Heavenly Son's Qi Observation Skill to the extreme, indeed observing that the Heavenly Crystal had the tendency to transform in shape. Although with Xuanzhen's strength, it would be difficult to shatter the Heavenly Crystal, due to the special cultivation technique, the Heavenly Crystal could be made to dissolve itself.
After a while, Xuanzhen stopped exercising and said somewhat excitedly, "Where did you find such a crystal? Not only does it contain tremendous energy, but even the method of forming this crystal is extraordinary. I suspect that the person who refined this crystal has gone far ahead of me on the path of materializing True Qi."
Xuanzhen had long been capable of materializing True Qi, but condensing the world's mysterious phenomena into a single crystal surpasses what Xuanzhen can achieve.
Having devised Taisu Primordial Skill on her own, Xuanzhen was always feeling her way across the river. It was only after she began cultivating with Qing Yu, encountering the mysteries of Qingyu True Energy, that it became much easier. Now, having such a crystal in front of her is undoubtedly a shortcut for Xuanzhen.
"A fortuitous encounter," Qing Yu said, "Judging by your appearance, you're able to directly convert the Heavenly Crystal into a gaseous state."
"That's right," Xuanzhen also regained her calm, "But this Heavenly Crystal is naturally mysterious as you mentioned. If transformed into a gaseous state, the energy and Cloud Qi Dao within it would instantly disperse with the gas, and I have no way to revert it back to a crystal state."
"That will suffice, and it just validates my conjecture. In the coming period, join me in comprehending the Heavenly Crystal. You study the Taisu transformation, and I'll delve into the Cloud Qi mysteries, each taking what is needed."
Qing Yu retrieved the Heavenly Crystal, "Uncle Master, until I absorb the Heavenly Crystal, you mustn't leave my side for even a moment. You know your nephew's nature; I trust no one."
"If you're not afraid of rumors, Uncle Master will accompany you." Xuanzhen said with a sweet smile.
