82: Chapter 82 Supernatural Powers, Ever-Changing

Infused with the special essence of Qi from heaven and earth, given the foundation of this wild rabbit, it would inevitably have exploded and died.

However, under Yu Xiu's guidance, everything went as smoothly as water flowing into a channel. He easily cleansed the rabbit's marrow and cut away its impurities, forging a Leakless body, then establishing Qi Circulation, followed by the Qi Sea and Life Spring!

In a flash, it had already broken through the Four Stages of Ascending Dragon and entered the Great Four Passes.

The four realms of Five Viscera, Five Elements, Five Spirits, and Divine Heart were achieved in one stroke.

Furthermore, during this infusion, Yu Xiu specifically took an extra look at the rabbit, tailoring the process to its physique so that the strength gained from this infusion would not cause any rejection.

This was indeed the case. A moment later, an aura of the peak of the Great Four Passes suddenly radiated from the rabbit, instantly filling the surrounding wilderness.

Although Yu Xiu did not think much of it, the small beasts in the mountain were terrified and fled in all directions.

The rabbit stood on its hind legs. Its body, originally just over a foot tall, suddenly swelled to seven feet, as tall as an average person, and its bulging muscles gave it a truly significant sense of oppression.

"I am too strong." The rabbit grinned and spoke in human language. It turned around and punched an old tree as thick as a washbasin, snapping it in two, then leaped over a hundred zhang away, hammering a large boulder and shattering it into pieces.

It then went to an old tree as thick as a millstone, exerted force with both feet, and instantly uprooted it, pulling out a large chunk of earth.

The rabbit spun the millstone-thick tree, played with it like a staff for a while, and then tossed it over a hundred zhang away.

But strangely, although this rabbit had clearly reached the Perfection of the Great Four Passes, there was not a trace of Demonic Qi on it; instead, its True Qi was extremely pure and authentic.

Having suddenly gained the strength of the Great Four Passes, how could a common wild rabbit control it? After dashing through the mountains for a long time, it finally returned to Yu Xiu, knelt again, and kowtowed three times.

"I do not know if you are a deity, but I am willing to honor you as a god."

Yu Xiu paid no attention to the rabbit's kowtowing and asked with great interest: "Do you know that if you had chosen the first option I gave you, I would have passed on a Cultivation Technique sufficient for you to cultivate to the 'Emperor' position?"

The rabbit seemed not to understand and asked: "Then what if I had chosen the third option?"

Yu Xiu smiled and said: "If you had chosen the third path, it would have been even more extraordinary. I would have personally transformed you into a human form. Your Aptitude would have been rare in a thousand years, and you would have retained my Dao rhyme. You would have been able to embark on the path of martial cultivation, advancing courageously, and perhaps one day you would have had the hope of becoming an Emperor."

The rabbit laughed: "Then I still choose the second path.

"You are a deity and naturally would not care about the survival rules of the beasts and birds in this mountain.

"For a small herbivorous beast like me, perhaps the next moment I would be snatched away by an eagle in the sky, or hunted by a fierce tiger, or swallowed by a giant snake.

"If you gave me a profound Cultivation Technique, I might not have even understood it before my bones were gone, having turned into the excrement of some fierce beast.

"You wanted to transform me into a human, but I have never been a human. If I went to the human realm, I fear I would not be able to survive.

"Therefore, this second path is just right for me."

"Huh, you rabbit, you are quite intelligent." Yu Xiu felt a stir in his heart upon hearing this.

His Comprehension Ability was extremely high, but he had always viewed all things from the perspective of a human.

He had thought that if this wild rabbit chose the first path, it would not be able to cultivate the profound Cultivation Technique he offered due to insufficient Comprehension Ability.

Yet, he had never considered that what this rabbit should actually be concerned about was not whether it could comprehend that profound Cultivation Technique, but whether it could live safely until tomorrow.

He had also thought about how, if the rabbit chose the third path, it would find a clean identity to join a Human Race Sect.

Yet he had never considered that this rabbit was born a rabbit, not a human.

It had never been a human. Once it entered the human realm, perhaps it would be killed by humans before it even found a cultivation Sect.

'Makes sense!' 'Heaven and earth have their own principles of operation!' 'All living things are different; how can the world they see be the same?' 'Then, I shall transform into all living things and view this world from different perspectives!' 'Therefore, I should possess an art of transformation!'

Yu Xiu looked at the rabbit, then at the rocks at his feet, then at the old tree beside him, and at the weeds under the old tree. Perhaps the world in the eyes of these rocks, trees, and grass held another kind of creation!

At this moment, the flashes of inspiration in Yu Xiu's mind surged again, bursting forth with countless ideas.

He reached out and grasped the air; the rabbit, which had become human-sized with bulging muscles, turned back into a small wild rabbit and landed in his hand.

A moment later, he put the rabbit down, pinched a towering old tree until it was only an inch tall, and held it in his hand. A bird in the sky also descended and perched in Yu Xiu's palm.

With a thought, the jackals, leopards, deer, insects, ants, tigers, hedgehogs, and countless other beasts and birds in the mountain seemed to receive a divine decree and gathered around. They were all silent, waiting for Yu Xiu to look at them one by one.

In the end, Yu Xiu beckoned again, and a mountain stretching for dozens of miles in the distance rose from the ground, then quickly shrank and landed in Yu Xiu's hand. He looked at it for a long time, then threw the mountain back to its original place, leaving no trace of abnormality. He beckoned again, and a large lake from an unknown distance away rose up entirely and landed in Yu Xiu's palm.

'Rabbit, tiger, leopard, wolf, eagle...' 'Birds!' 'Beasts!' 'In truth, they all have commonalities!' 'Plants!' 'Mountains and waters!' 'All living things are, in themselves, within the Dao!'

He shook his body and suddenly turned into a fierce tiger, leaping to the side of the summoned tiger. A trace of confusion flashed in the fierce tiger's cold, amber pupils. Yu Xiu, however, had already shifted his body again, turning into a mountain eagle, flapping his wings and soaring into the sky.

He would sometimes turn into a jackal or a leopard, and other times into flowers, grass, or trees, into mountains, into water, or into fish in the water...

[Divine Ability: Myriad Transformations (Perfection)]

'Indeed, different living things see the world differently!'

[Origin (2567 / 99999999)] Dao cultivation increased greatly.

Yu Xiu changed back into human form and dispersed the birds and beasts, leaving only the rabbit standing there in a daze. After a long while, it knelt on the ground again: "You truly are a god."

Yu Xiu recovered from his epiphany and looked at the rabbit: "You are one with Opportunity."

He suddenly raised his hand and pointed at the rabbit's brow: "I shall pass on another Cultivation Technique to you!"

He had not expected to gain so much insight from a rabbit. This was his own Dao, and it was also the rabbit's good fortune.

'《Green Lotus Scripture of Salvation》.' The rabbit felt a vast, profound, and mysterious memory emerge out of thin air in its mind, but this memory was soon mysteriously sealed, leaving only a small portion at the beginning.

The rabbit was overjoyed and kowtowed again: "Thank you, Master, for passing on the technique."

Yu Xiu's figure disappeared from the direction the rabbit was kowtowing and appeared behind the rabbit: "In the future, if you can stand under the starry sky and overlook ten thousand stars, it will not be too late to call me Master again."

As the Dao Ancestor, he was destined to preach the Dao to all living things. That this rabbit could be the first to receive his teaching was its good fortune. However, as for becoming the disciple of the Dao Ancestor, this rabbit was still far, far away.
