195: Chapter 195 The Yuan Power of the Myriad Realms?
On the other side, Donghuang Taiyi's eyes brightened slightly, as if lost in thought.
Zhang Sanfeng also showed surprise, clearly shocked by this unprecedented sword-casting technique.
Both felt that such craftsmanship was unheard of, nearly a divine skill.
Only White Robe Su stood in the corner, brow slightly furrowed, a trace of doubt flashing in his eyes.
"Not bad, it seems you have indeed glimpsed the threshold of that Artifact Refining method." Su Rui opened his palm, and the long swords wandering in the air returned to their scabbards one after another, the sword cries ceasing.
"I only know a bit about it." King Li Su smiled modestly, but he couldn't hide the pride in his eyes.
King Li Su's words were respectful, but his pride was hard to conceal.
These swords were far beyond the so-called famous swords in the current Jianghu.
Then everyone presented congratulatory gifts with full etiquette.
However, there were so many people that the gifts piled up like a mountain.
Su Rui had to ask Sikong Changfeng to count and store them on his behalf.
The banquet began, guests sat at different tables, and cups were exchanged.
Su Rui also visited several tables, raising his glass in greeting with gentle words.
After the banquet, it was Snow Moon City's annual Hundred Flowers Festival.
But he did not go to enjoy it.
He walked alone through the long, secluded corridor by the garden and entered a quiet room.
"Senior Su!"
White Robe Su and Li Changsheng had been waiting in the hall for a long time.
"No need for formalities," Su Rui smiled. "Our cultivation is similar, so don't worry about seniority. We can treat each other as equals."
White Robe Su nodded, his expression slightly complex.
"Have you heard about the matters of the Upper Realm?" Su Rui asked.
"Yes, not only have I heard of them, but I know them in quite some detail."
Before he finished speaking, his palm flipped, and a golden flame quietly rose...
White Robe Su's pupils shrank, his face changed drastically, and he suddenly stood up.
"You... are from the Upper Realm?"
His tone already carried a hint of defensiveness.
"Don't be nervous." Su Rui waved his hand lightly. "This power is just a type of technique Legacy.
Although it's difficult for ordinary people to achieve Awakening, those with Upper Realm Bloodline indeed find it easier to master, but it's not impossible."
White Robe Su was stunned, doubt still in his eyes.
Suddenly, Su Rui pointed a finger directly at Li Changsheng's brow.
White Robe Su's figure flashed, instantly blocking the way.
The two exchanged blows for a few breaths, then separated.
He turned to look at Li Changsheng—only to see the young man's eyes gradually clear from vacancy, though his expression was strange.
The next moment, his palm moved slightly, lightning flashed, water droplets condensed, fireballs jumped, earth breath settled, and green Qi flowed; five types of auras slowly rotated in his hand, blending together.
"Is this... the Elemental Power of the Myriad Manifestations Realm?"
White Robe Su was shocked.
He knew Li Changsheng's background was clean; it was impossible for him to be a person from the Upper Realm.
"Ultimately, this is just a way to utilize the power of heaven and earth," Su Rui said calmly. "After stepping into the Divine Roaming Profound Realm, one can perceive and mobilize part of the heaven and earth Origin Qi. If one's Comprehension Ability is sufficient, one can naturally understand other things by analogy."
White Robe Su nodded slowly.
With his Realm, it wasn't impossible to imitate this kind of power.
But what puzzled him was that Su Rui could actually guide others to unlock this ability.
"The threshold must be at least the Divine Roaming Profound Realm," Su Rui added. "As for how far one can go, that depends on personal fortune."
White Robe Su was silent for a moment, then sat down again, his expression hesitant.
Seeing this, Su Rui sat down and said softly, "Does Senior also want to experience it firsthand?"
"I do indeed," White Robe Su admitted frankly. "I guard the Heavenly Gate, and people from the Upper Realm often descend; most of them master this kind of power.
If I can understand its essence, I can handle it much more calmly."
"I see." Su Rui was thoughtful. "Then this Heavenly Gate, can it only be traversed from top to bottom, and not in reverse?"
"Not necessarily." White Robe Su shook his head. "Among the previous Gatekeepers, some have also ascended in reverse and entered the Upper Realm.
However, the pressure within the Heavenly Gate is staggering, and only the strong can pass through."
"Understood." Su Rui nodded, already having a plan in mind.
Afterward, the two chatted about some trivial matters, mostly Su Rui asking and White Robe Su answering one by one.
Upon parting, Su Rui granted the secret power of the Kongshi Realm to White Robe Su.
Of course, it wasn't unconditional.
After all, this ability could peek into people's hearts, and at its depths, it could even perceive the trajectory of fate.
Letting White Robe Su master it would allow him to more quickly uncover the backgrounds of those coming down from the Upper Realm in the future.
The two thus reached a tacit understanding.
Meanwhile, Li Changsheng stood quietly aside the whole time, only able to listen and unable to join the conversation.
After leaving, Su Rui went to see Fusu.
"Greetings, Mr. Su."
Initially, Sikong Changfeng wanted to decline the meeting, but Fusu's status was special. After confirmation, he was finally welcomed into the manor.
Seeing Su Rui's arrival, Fusu stood up and bowed respectfully.
"No need for formalities," Su Rui said. "Young Master, what is the matter for which you seek me?"
"My father has long admired your style, Mr. Su, and specifically sent Fusu here to sincerely invite you to visit Great Qin on a chosen day." Fusu was straightforward, without any concealment.
Su Rui's eyes moved slightly, looking at him thoughtfully.
Thinking of the Net of Heaven's previous actions regarding the Heavenly Gate, he already understood Qin Shi Huang's intentions.
"Very well, if I have leisure time, I shall certainly go."
"Will you be free?"
Hearing Su Rui agree, Fusu felt a warmth in his heart, but then showed a hint of hesitation.
"I wonder if Mr. Su could give me an approximate date?"
Su Rui pondered for a moment.
"When spring ends and summer arrives."
Hearing such a clear answer, Fusu's face immediately lit up with joy.
"Then Fusu will definitely welcome your arrival in person, Mr. Su!"
Su Rui nodded slightly.
Along the coast of the East Sea, the assassins of the Net of Heaven had already quietly withdrawn.
Although the power of the Net of Heaven was not to be underestimated, now that Tyrant had stopped and the Heavenly Gate was unified, the situation was no longer what it used to be.
Zhao Gao was a very perceptive person; he naturally wouldn't go head-to-head and simply ordered his men to withdraw.
Even if Qin Shi Huang felt unwilling, he held it back for now.
The reason Su Rui didn't refuse was that he also wanted to see the demeanor of this Emperor of Great Qin with his own eyes.
After receiving the promise, Fusu's shoulders visibly relaxed a bit.
"Then I shall wait for your arrival in the Capital City, Mr. Su."
He bowed deeply, his tone sincere.
"I will go." Su Rui nodded slightly and turned to leave.
"Young Master, how should we handle Jing Ni?"
"Don't mention this person again.
Act as if the Net of Heaven never had such a person; my father's matters are the priority right now."
As Fusu finished speaking, his gaze swept over the six Sword Attendants beside him.
All six were startled and hurriedly bowed in agreement.
"I will inform Zhao Gao of this when I return.
For now, we just wait for Your Excellency Donghuang's message before setting off back to Qin.
My father has been waiting a long time and must be anxious."
At this time, beside Donghuang Taiyi, Yan Fei was reporting with her head lowered.
"In other words, he doesn't trust you?"
"Exactly.
He knows my background like the back of his hand and exposed my identity as soon as we met."
Yan Fei responded truthfully.
"In that case, staying here is of no great use to you."
Donghuang Taiyi nodded slowly.
"Your Excellency previously said that Su Rui might rewrite the world's situation.
Now that you have seen him in person, do you still think he has that possibility?"
Yan Fei couldn't help but ask what was on her mind.
"The change has already begun."
Donghuang Taiyi's voice was low.
"What change?" A voice suddenly came from the shadows.
The two were shocked and turned around quickly—only to see Su Rui walking slowly; that sentence clearly came from him.
With a smile on his face, he walked up to Donghuang Taiyi.
"Hall Master."
Yan Fei's expression changed slightly, appearing somewhat flustered.
Su Rui gave her a faint look, then his gaze landed on the Black-Robed Person.
"You say I will cause the world to change? Is that a blessing or a curse?"
"It is not yet known."
Since he had been overheard, Donghuang Taiyi did not hide it.
"Isn't that saying nothing?" Su Rui's tone was light.
"Things always have a direction, for better or worse. Why are you so ambiguous? What exactly do you mean?"
He looked directly into the other's eyes.
"The changes in the world often start with one person.
It might be the Qin Emperor, or some nameless person.
But those who can truly lead the trend are very few."
"Are you talking about me?"
Su Rui raised an eyebrow.
"Precisely." Donghuang Taiyi actually admitted it frankly, which slightly surprised Su Rui.
"What if I want the Yin-Yang School to submit to me?"
He said half-jokingly.
"Donghuang Taiyi of the Yin-Yang School greets Mr. Su."
Unexpectedly, Su Rui thought it was a joke, but the person actually bowed.
"Are you serious?"
"Every word is true.
What my Yin-Yang School seeks is the ultimate truth of heaven and earth, and in you, I have glimpsed a ray of dawn."
Donghuang Taiyi's expression was solemn.
Su Rui looked him up and down, then glanced at Yan Fei—she was also full of shock, clearly not expecting things to turn out this way.
However, on second thought, he might have to contend with the Upper Realm in the future, and having more help would be beneficial, so Su Rui did not refuse.
"Take off the mask and outer robe."
He suddenly spoke.
Donghuang Taiyi's figure swayed slightly but did not resist.
The moment the mask was removed, Su Rui was slightly moved, and Yan Fei gasped.
Under that mask was actually an exceptionally beautiful woman's face.
But Su Rui perceived the aura circulating in her body, which clearly had over a hundred years of Lifespan accumulation.
"I am a descendant of the Ji clan; my ancestors were once kings of an ancient Dynasty."
The woman spoke, her voice clear and melodious.
Without the disguise and concealment, her original voice was finally revealed.
Yan Fei was stunned.
"Then... you are?"
"You are indeed my junior, as is the Moon God."
Donghuang Taiyi nodded in confirmation.
Yan Fei was dumbfounded, unable to believe it.
"Since you have agreed to stand together, Mr. Su, do you have any instructions?"
Su Rui thought for a moment.
"Then you shall join my Martial Arts Hall!"
Donghuang Taiyi was stunned, not understanding what Su Rui meant.
But she did not refuse, under Yan Fei's watchful gaze.
"Ji Fuyao greets the Hall Master!"
[Ji Fuyao has officially joined the Martial Arts Hall. She can obtain a Cultivation Technique or Opportunity, triggering a critical hit return.] Su Rui's heart moved slightly, and he nodded to himself.
The talent of this head of the Yin-Yang School was naturally extraordinary; although it hadn't reached the limit, it was already at ninety-nine, just one step away from Perfection.
After some thought, he knew the Yin-Yang School was a major sect within Great Qin, and its Disciples were all selected talents, with countless prodigies.
It was originally a branch of the Taoist School, and many secret techniques evolved from the Taoist School.
Even though the two schools now have very different styles, tracing back to the source, they still share the same origin.
Thinking of this, Su Rui pointed a finger.
Sixteen Caves of Great Harmony—this was a manual he obtained through signing in, originally the general outline of the "Taiyi Sect," a great cultivation sect.
It covered the changes of the Five Elements, Talismanic Incantation, and many forbidden techniques, perfectly matching the needs of the Yin-Yang path.
Just as Ji Fuyao received this information in her mind, her face froze, her eyes went blank, and she was speechless for a long time.
