198: Section 198

“Thank you, Junior Martial Uncle True Person Yichen!”

True Person Yichen laughed heartily at this sight.

“Good, good, congratulations to Headmaster Senior Brother for accepting such an excellent Disciple!”

...

After you acknowledged Yisheng Zhenren as your master, Yisheng Zhenren began to personally guide you.

It must be said that the teaching methods of a prestigious sect are far superior to what Baiyang Real Person's second Primordial Spirit could offer.

One was a rigid indoctrination of knowledge, while the other was a profound yet simple, concise instruction, along with pointing out errors in Cultivation.

Watching himself learn in the simulation, Su Mo absorbed knowledge about Cultivation like a sponge.

Su Mo's current thought was:

Regardless of whether he could understand it now, he would remember it first.

...

Time flew by, and unknowingly, you had spent three years on Shu Mountain.

During these three years, Yisheng did not teach you the Taiqing Purple Mansion Immortal Canon, which only the Headmaster could learn. Instead, he continuously corrected your Cultivation errors and taught you faster Cultivation methods.

Your Foundation became incredibly solid, which greatly pleased Yisheng Zhenren.

He often sighed, lamenting that the Baiyang True Explanation truly was a first-rate Foundation Establishment profound method.

Only after your Foundation was firmly established did Yisheng Zhenren impart to you the "Taiqing Purple Mansion Immortal Canon," which only the Shu Mountain Sect Leader could learn.

The Taiqing Purple Mansion Immortal Canon is vast and profound, and its later Realms are even more abstruse and difficult to understand than the Baiyang True Explanation.

This left you unsure whether to continue Cultivating the Baiyang True Explanation or to Cultivate the new Taiqing Purple Mansion Immortal Canon.

When you conveyed this question to Yisheng Zhenren, he simply told you to choose for yourself.

Because even he had not mastered the Taiqing Purple Mansion Immortal Canon, but instead Cultivated other Shu Mountain Cultivation Techniques.

The reason he imparted it to you was that the Taiqing Purple Mansion Immortal Canon could not be recorded on any physical medium; it could only exist in memory.

If you couldn't Cultivate it, it didn't matter. You could focus on Cultivating the Baiyang True Explanation, and once you became the Headmaster, you could pass the Taiqing Purple Mansion Immortal Canon to the next Headmaster.

Upon hearing this, you felt a mix of amusement and helplessness. You could only Cultivate the Baiyang True Explanation daily and ponder the Taiqing Purple Mansion Immortal Canon in your leisure time.

From this, it could also be seen that Baiyang Real Person's defeat was not unjust.

Purple Rainbow Zhenren was the only Headmaster in Shu Mountain's thousands of years to have successfully Cultivated this Cultivation Technique.

Another year of peaceful life passed.

This year, you were twenty-five years old, but your appearance remained perpetually at twenty-one.

And it was this year.

A stone tablet emerged in Scarlet Gorge, bearing a Heavenly Scripture that no one could comprehend.

Countless Cultivators, from the Righteous Path, Demonic Path, Demonic Dao, Asura Dao, and others, all sent their young generation's elites.

You, Bai Ningshuang, Zhang Cangfeng, and several other third-generation Disciples also received a mission.

To go to Scarlet Gorge and decipher the stone tablet's Heavenly Scripture!

Chapter 163: Asura Princess, Rakshasa Woman

“Senior Brother Su, who do you think will be able to understand the stone tablet's Heavenly Scripture when we go there?”

On the way, due to your status as the Headmaster's Personal Disciple, a beautiful female third-generation Disciple hovered around you, her eyes filled with indescribable admiration.

This scene made Bai Ningshuang quite jealous, but your impatient expression made her very happy.

Su Gege truly treats all women equally.

It was three days later when you arrived at Scarlet Gorge.

Scarlet Gorge is a canyon formed by volcanic eruptions. In leisure times, some Cultivators who Cultivate fire-attribute Cultivation Techniques would come here to collect fire Qi, either for Alchemy, Artifact Refining, or Cultivation.

Not long ago, a successful Loose Immortal came to collect some C-grade red copper but unexpectedly stumbled upon the emergence of the stone tablet's Heavenly Scripture.

After observing it for a long time, unable to comprehend its meaning, the Loose Immortal realized that this stone tablet Heavenly Scripture had no affinity with him.

After making a rubbing, he informed his Fellow Daoist.

Word spread quickly, and soon the entire Earth Immortal Realm received this news, so they all dispatched their Disciples to Scarlet Gorge to comprehend it.

The surrounding air temperature was extremely hot. Only after Bai Ningshuang took out her ice silk net was she able to block out that terrifying temperature.

However, in a short while, a large amount of water vapor was generated in Scarlet Gorge.

You looked up and saw a beautiful Fairy in red robes in the clouds in the sky, holding a banana fan and fanning the entire Scarlet Gorge.

The wind was extremely strong and extremely cold.

With a gentle fan, it cooled down most of the temperature in Scarlet Gorge.

The sky also quickly began to drizzle with heavy rain.

The rain was heavy, pouring down. Scarlet Gorge had not experienced such heavy rain for countless years. It splashed onto the magma, causing continuous explosions of ground fire.

You looked at the red-robed Fairy fanning the wind, and a faint emotion stirred within you, though you didn't know what it was.

As the heavy rain continued, the water vapor in Scarlet Gorge evaporated completely, and the previously terrifying hot environment was now as cool as autumn.

You left the shelter of Bai Ningshuang's ice silk net and immediately felt a refreshing breeze on your face.

Immediately, you shouted loudly to the red-robed Fairy:

“Thank you, Fairy, for dispelling the heat for us!”

At this moment, the red-robed woman turned to look at you, her immortal bones and heroic demeanor revealing a dazzlingly beautiful face.

As she approached, you felt only that she possessed immense grace, full of majesty and nobility.

Seeing your attire, the red-robed woman slowly descended to the ground, holding her banana fan.

“Are you Shu Mountain Disciples?”

“Precisely!”

For some reason, you wanted to show off in front of this woman, so you stepped forward and introduced yourself.

“My name is Su Mo, and I am the Personal Disciple of the current Shu Mountain Sect Leader.”

“This is Bai Ningshuang, and this is Zhang Cangfeng...”

Upon hearing your self-introduction, the red-robed woman's beautiful eyes showed a hint of curiosity towards you.

“The Shu Mountain Sect Leader's Personal Disciple? Does that mean you are the next Shu Mountain Sect Leader?”

You looked at her intently, finding her more and more pleasing to the eye.

You chuckled, then began to inquire.

“May I know your esteemed name, miss?”

“You, sir, are quite impolite.”

Seeing your gaze, the red-robed woman's cheeks flushed slightly. She reprimanded you, but still told you her name.

“You can just call me Rakshasa Woman.”

Zhang Cangfeng, being knowledgeable, immediately spoke up.

“Could it be the Thirteenth Princess of the Asura tribe, Rakshasa Woman?”

“It is said that Rakshasa Woman Cultivated the Dao from a young age and possesses a Magic Treasure called the Banana Fan, which can grow large or small, extinguish fire, generate wind, and protect the people's farming.”

“It must be you.”

You were also deeply surprised to hear this, not expecting this red-robed female Cultivator to have such a prominent background.

Then you extended an invitation.

“We are here at Scarlet Gorge to observe the stone tablet's Heavenly Scripture, Miss Rakshasa Woman. I wonder if your purpose is the same as ours.”

“If so, you are welcome to join us.”

Upon hearing your address and invitation, Rakshasa Woman readily agreed.

“You don't need to call me Rakshasa Woman; just call me by my nickname, Iron Fan.”

“I came here precisely to observe that stone tablet's Heavenly Scripture.”

“Seeing how hot this place is, I fanned it three times. It won't reignite for another half a year, so it won't delay the Cultivation of those fire Cultivators.”

You were quite impressed by Rakshasa Woman's thoughtfulness.

“Miss Iron Fan, shall we go?”

“Alright!”

Afterward, your group began to walk towards the place where the stone tablet emerged.

However, you didn't notice that Bai Ningshuang's jade-like face had darkened.

In her heart, she had already listed Iron Fan as her primary rival.

When you arrived at the stone tablet, the area was already filled with Cultivators. Upon seeing your attire, they automatically cleared an open space for you.

You couldn't help but sigh with emotion internally; the Shu Mountain identity was indeed overbearing.

After thanking the Loose Cultivators who made way, you stood before the stone tablet and observed it.

The stone tablet was about three zhang high and one zhang wide, covered with tadpole-like characters.

As you carefully observed, your mind felt drawn into it. Unbeknownst to you, a Spell named "Primordial Sun True Art" appeared in your mind.

The Primordial Sun True Art is a profound method that enhances the power of Dao Spells and Divine Abilities by utilizing the most rigid and yang energies of heaven and earth.

The specific power was still unclear.

You looked at the others and saw Bai Ningshuang, Iron Fan, and Zhang Cangfeng all lost in thought, clearly engrossed in the stone tablet.

The other few third-generation Shu Mountain Disciples were different.

They were all scratching their heads and looking anxious.

Logically speaking, those who could join Shu Mountain had sufficient fortune, Foundation, and Comprehension Ability. The reason they couldn't understand the stone tablet in front of them now was likely because the stone tablet had no affinity with them.

You waited for a while, and Zhang Cangfeng was the first to awaken. At this moment, his eyes were filled with shock.

After Zhang Cangfeng awoke, Bai Ningshuang awoke.

Bai Ningshuang's expression after waking up was different from Zhang Cangfeng's; it was one of doubt, seeming to hesitate whether to Cultivate what she had comprehended from it.

The last to awaken was Iron Fan.

When Iron Fan woke up, her eyes were filled with pleasant surprise, clearly having comprehended many things from it.

Seeing that you were still waiting for her, Iron Fan immediately spoke.

“I just comprehended some profound methods and truths. Why don't we find a quiet place to sit and discuss the Dao?”

Upon hearing Iron Fan's words, you also strongly agreed.

“That would be excellent.”

Afterward, your group left Scarlet Gorge and flew towards another location.

Eventually, you passed by a place where peach blossoms were in full bloom. This place was rarely visited, but the scenery was extremely beautiful, so you came to a pond in the mountains to exchange insights.

Hmm?

Su Mo was startled at the sight.

Isn't this Peach Mountain?

Dream Hongshang was here before.

What does this situation mean now? Dream Hongshang isn't living here yet?

If that's the case,

Then the time of this simulation is likely before Dream Hongshang.

He just didn't know how many hundreds of years ago it was.
