Chapter 87: Chapter 81: Five Celestial Beings Discuss the Dao
To be honest, the Cyan Bull Blade Master was only listening symbolically. After all, he has been in the Celestial Human Realm for three hundred years, reaching the Celestial Being List, having eaten more salt than Taoist Longshan, who has just advanced to the Celestial Human Realm, has eaten meals.
But when he heard the phrase ’Is there an innate item within the human body that can resonate with heaven and earth?’, he was stunned.
As Taoist Longshan continued to explain, his expression became unprecedentedly serious.
The other three Celestial Beings were even more so, listening attentively.
Above the True Martial Dojo.
The voice of Taoist Longshan resounded, while the others listened closely to the teachings.
Only one person was lost in thought.
That was Ning Qi.
He listened intently for a moment and realized that everything his master was saying had already been told to him that night, with nothing new, and even much had been omitted. What followed was the Celestial Being Unity Secret Technique he had comprehended.
Though his master’s comprehension was good enough to incorporate it into his own path, Ning Qi’s insight easily saw through the unchanged essence.
Of course.
Taoist Longshan was not foolish; he naturally wouldn’t impart such an unparalleled secret technique selflessly to everyone, only discussing the concepts and some spiritual light within it. The reason for choosing to speak on these parts was naturally because of the several Celestial Beings present.
The Carefree Monarch and the Cyan Bull Blade Master were his friends, and True Man Baihe was from Taoism. The three showed immense respect by attending and brought generous gifts; hence, Taoist Longshan naturally had to reciprocate.
Though Ancestor Wang benefited a bit, it was of no consequence.
At this moment.
Everyone was enchanted, the later content was so profound that even those in the Primordial Core Realm couldn’t understand it, only making the eyes of the few Celestial Beings burn brighter.
...
Inside True Martial City.
True Martial disciples were constantly rushing around.
The teachings of Taoist Longshan on True Martial Mountain were being relayed in real-time, with inns and taverns everywhere packed full, everyone eagerly awaiting.
Although most people couldn’t understand, it didn’t stop them from enthusiastically discussing.
"True Man Longshan is truly an unparalleled genius; no wonder he could enter the Celestial Human Realm before the age of a hundred, amazing!"
"This trip was not in vain!"
"I must record these teachings and pass them down as secret family knowledge. Although I don’t understand them, if any descendant comprehends them in the future, it would be a great fortune!"
Everyone was amazed.
Only a small number of Gang Essence Realm strong persons and naturally gifted individuals understood the value within, feeling even more awe towards Taoist Longshan. Some previously uninvited individuals felt resentment, but now, that thought had completely vanished.
In a private room.
A white-haired youth stared blankly in the direction of True Martial Mountain, lost in reverie. His expression grew increasingly complex as he listened to the teachings of Taoist Longshan being relayed.
Originally, he had the opportunity to listen directly on the mountain, but that chance was lost forever.
He bowed deeply towards True Martial Mountain, lips moving silently.
Unnoticed, the young man was already weeping silently.
...
On True Martial Mountain.
Taoist Longshan’s lecture was nearing its end, and the martial artists were filled with emotion, this trip was not wasted.
However, the few Celestial Beings felt it was far too short.
Seeing signs that Taoist Longshan might stop, True Man Baihe waved his duster and couldn’t help but speak up:
"May I ask True Man Longshan, if the Path of Celestial Being is achieved by resonating innate items in the human body, how does one go about it?"
This question.
Immediately energized everyone present.
Generally speaking.
During the Celestial Being Grand Ceremony, only a newly ascended Celestial Being would teach, and no matter how it went, others wouldn’t interrupt. If a Celestial Being Strong Person invited to attend spoke up voluntarily, it implied he wished to initiate a discourse!
Immediately, the many martial artists in the Tao Field became excited.
Originally, they thought hearing such a marvelous lecture from Taoist Longshan was already worth the price; unexpectedly, there was an unexpected bonus!
Taoist Longshan was taken aback but then delighted.
Fellow Daoist, discussing the Dao naturally accelerates improvement.
"The human body has skin, muscles, tendons, bones, blood, marrow, and viscera, all are innate items." Taoist Longshan answered with a smile.
The Carefree Monarch also chimed in:
"Besides these, is there anything else?"
"Tracing back to the essence, it would be the root bone."
This made the Cyan Bull Blade Master restless.
"For one who practices martial arts, forming the root bone is necessary, but how does one resonate with heaven and earth?"
This question made all the Celestial Beings’ hearts skip a beat, as they felt this was a stunning, unprecedented idea. Their awe for Taoist Longshan was further deepened.
Instantly.
The Celestial Beings began proposing various assumptions and hypotheses surrounding the ’concept of root bone’.
Meanwhile, they continually elucidated their insights into the Path of Celestial Being.
They had become fully engrossed in this ’amazing concept of root bone’.
Five great Celestial Beings engaged in a discourse.
This scene is perhaps a once-in-a-century occurrence.
The crowd below trembled with excitement, yet exerted effort to remain calm, fearing any noise might disturb the five Celestial Beings. They marveled at their good fortune and listened intently, not daring to miss a single word, as gaining even one or two insights from the discourse of the five Celestial Beings would be the real opportunity of the trip!
At this moment.
Even Ning Qi stopped drifting off in thought.
His eyes were bright, concentrating on listening to the elucidations of the other four Celestial Beings, especially the insights from the Cyan Bull Blade Master, which were clearly deeper than the others. Although the Celestial Beings’ teachings were not a smooth narrative but rather fragmented, for Ning Qi, it was not difficult to piece them together.
Each line of Celestial Being’s wisdom echoed in Ning Qi’s ear.
Inadvertently, he had forgotten everything around him, forgotten that he was in the True Martial Dojo, closing his eyes, with nothing but the resounding discourse vibrating in his ears.
"The Path of Celestial Being is to be carefree and at ease, to have heavenly flowers gather the spirit, achieving the Divine Union of Heaven and Earth, perhaps the spirit can also merge with the root bone..." This was from the Carefree Monarch.
"Root bone is the blood and flesh of the human body, emphasizing the flower of humanity, the Flower of Essence gathers the essence yuan of the human body, perhaps it can unlock the divine traits of the root bone..." This was from Ancestor Wang.
"The Path of Celestial Being requires the Three Flowers Gathering at the Top to be complete, the combination of essence, qi, and spirit; the root bone is more than just flesh and blood, it is more special, perhaps its secret lies in the union of essence, qi, and spirit..." This was from the Cyan Bull Blade Master.
...
The Celestial Beings debated, continuously referencing the paths they cultivated.
And Ning Qi, naturally, also entered a state of enlightenment.
He had found the opportunity to create the Quenching Gang Technique.
Before the Celestial Being Grand Ceremony, he had always pondered how to use the Power of Heaven and Earth to refine Gang Qi, as the power of heaven and earth was endless, eliminating the need for external resources to accelerate the refining of his vast Gang Qi.
But Ning Qi could only control some of the Power of Heaven and Earth in advance with the Celestial Being Unity Secret Technique, which was too rough for the precise task of refining Gang Qi.
That was the difficulty.
But now, listening to the Celestial Beings’ discourse, Ning Qi had gained a fresh understanding of the Power of Heaven and Earth, and the difficulty solved itself effortlessly.
