Daoist Master of Qing Xuan

Chapter 535: Finally We Meet

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The kind of qualities on Wuding was a result of his mana which was sealed up within the past three days. Those qualities were gained through facing the highs and lows of Lake East as well as the ferocious nature of the marine mammals with the flesh and blood of his mortal body. Because he relied on this mortal body to overcome all this inescapable doom, nothing in the future can ever defeat him through his heart and soul.

In this aspect, Wen Zhong was adept in teaching students based on their respective abilities. As for Wuding, everything that he had experienced during the past three days could be said as a wealth of knowledge that could span him a lifetime.

Lei Jing’s gradually sharpened her summoning of wind and rain. Her hair flowed with the wind which caused a lock of hair to be caught in the corner of her mouth, her eyes were cold. With a wave, the wind and rain shot down like thousands of flying swords. They penetrated the air and headed towards Wuding.

With the wooden knife in his hand, Wuding slowly drew a circle and produced a stream of Qi. He stirred the wind and rain together and deflected them back to Lei Jing.

Lei Jing pressed her hands on the surface of the water. Immediately a jaw-dropping waterspout burst forth and blocked the oncoming wind and rain. The sky once again burst with the sound of thunder and in her eyes, there was a flash of lightning.

She merged with the lightning as a whole and then surged towards Wuding’s direction.

With his steady and powerful hand, Wuding tightly gripped the long knife. He delivered one strikeout of a sudden and it landed on the lightning.

Along with the rattling sound of the explosion, the wooden knife broke into half.

Lei Jing’s attack was like the tide. It was relentless. The water in Lake East was surging and turbulent, rippling with the brightness from the lightning. The Xia Kingdom’s spectators who were watching from the dark could not contain their amazement. For someone as young as Lei Jing to develop the Lei family’s bloodline strength to such heights, even Lei Nuo might not be able to reach it.

Most of the aristocrats could not help but secretly felt regretful. If they knew Lei Jing was this strong to begin with, they would unashamedly proceed the marriage between Wuding and her.

The lake water surged forward and enveloped Wuding in it, trapping him within the waves of the water and the lightning.

Wuding’s wooden knife was already broken, so all he could do was to use the Flying Star Incantation to produce the divine lights continuously in order to protect his body. However, he could not guard against the erosion caused by the lightning all around him.

Wuding felt a particular sense of helplessness after having seen just how terrifying was the true strength of Lei Jing’s ability in the summoning of wind and rain. As soon as it was put to use, the wind and rain would be unceasing. At no point in time did he see Lei Jing’s exhaustion. Furthermore, the dark clouds were thickening and no light was seen from the sky. The Flying Star Incantation would lose some of its strength in the account of that. Wuding’s current predicament was because his strength was diminished for a long period of time.

Of course, he had the determination and perseverance to welcome all sorts of adversities, but to overcome the present problem with mere determination is easier said than done.

In his heart, Wuding was thinking of a way to solve this dilemma. He continuously produced divine lights using the Flying Star Incantation but there were no collisions. The good thing was that the Flying Star Incantation had a drawn-out Qi pulse and Lei Jing also lacked a killing technique capable of causing a violent death, so Wuding could still hold her off.

Similarly, to break this predicament, Wuding also needed a trump card. It was a pity that Wen Zhong never taught him the kind of immensely strong supernatural Dao techniques.

At this point, Lei Jing was far calmer and composed compared to Wuding. She had the patience and she waited for the moment where Wuding could no longer hold off. Since summoning of wind and rain could rank among the Tiangang Thirty-Six Techniques, she was in an excellent position. Only when Lei Jing battled mana did she understand how strong this branch of supernatural power really was. The longer she put it to use, the more the Daoist within her felt the kind of Unity of Universe and Human. The power of the wind and rain was continuously produced from the heaven and earth. The power of thunder and lightning was employed endlessly and the usage was not exhausting at all. The more she fought, the stronger it became.

She could master the power of wind and rain. Not only did it not diminish, her power even expanded with no end in sight.

Having reached this point in time, winning and losing were of no importance. Lei Jing had mixed feelings in her heart. The summoning of wind and rain proved how one can never assume anything about her teacher. In between her teacher and her uncle, there might also be a day where they would have a life and death battle. She wanted nothing to happen to both her teacher and her. But with such formidability, it would spell doom for whoever that made the slightest mistake.

At the present moment, Shen Lian shifted his focus away from Lei Jing and placed his gaze firmly on Wuding.

A faint and untraceable divine aura suddenly pierced into Wuding’s body. It was a type of Bloodline Empathy Technique which was more abstruse than Buddhist sect’s Heart Seal.

All of the spectators felt something was changing. Wuding who was trapped in the midst of thunder, lightning, wind, and storm used his hand as a knife to draw an abstruse track. A Dao path was opened and he freed himself from the elements, reaching the top of the Nine Heavens.

Wuding’s clothes were immediately shredded into pieces and there was charred scarring on his body. His appearance was calm and his eyes were formless as though he became one with a God from an unseen word.

Naturally, this could not be the work of Wuding himself.

Tianyi made his move.

Shen Lian also induced a strand of divine thought, along with an unseen sense, he suddenly reached a high platform which was surrounded by raging fire.

It was the Xia Stage and he could finally ‘see’ Tianyi in person.

“See the clouds in water, above the water the clouds fly; clouds are present when water is gone, water flows when the clouds are gone.” A delicate voice reached Shen Lian’s thoughts. On top of Xia Stage sat a man with swaying long hair. The man was naked but he seemed comfortable. His eyes looked as though they could cut through all whims.

Throughout his life, Shen Lian met countless opponents but none could surpass the sheer vision of Tianyi. One sentence was enough to break the innate character that Shen Lian cultivated.

Those four verses of prose were coincidentally the explanation for the ‘Idle Clouds Reflected on a Pond’ that Founding Master Ziling painted back then. It was also the subtle meaning by which Founding Master Qingshui developed the Taixu Strategy.

Between oneself and the outside world, neither encroached with the other but were able to completely merge into one and became indivisible. This was the essence that was left behind after the Taixu Strategy abandoned the operation of ‘Sky, earth, mountain, swamp, water, fire, wind, and lightning’.

Founding Master Qingshui established the Taixu Strategy not to be invincible on earth but to transcend the highest level of wisdom.

Tianyi only saw a trace of Shen Lian’s spiritual incarnation and yet he was able to experience this point. The training of the psyche was enough to move Shen Lian emotionally.

Shen Lian said slowly, “Finally we meet.”

Tian Yi smiled, “I longed to meet you, national advisor. It is you who did not reciprocate.”

“I wanted to meet but the time was yet to come,” Shen Lian replied.

“Has the time arrived, then?” Tianyi questioned.

Shen Lian said, “I am not a very generous person and this match, my disciple shall not lose. Therefore my only recourse is to meet you and sever the relationship you have with Wuding. Thus, the appropriate time has come. I must meet you, and I have met you.”

Tianyi stood up. The infinite Real Fire of the Sun around him weaved to form a piece of white gold clothing, which covered his slender and handsome body. His whole person gave out a feeling of warmth akin to the warmth of the spring wind.

He gave a slight bow, “To be honest I am grateful to you, national advisor. If you did not come, my days will inevitably be much troubled. Perhaps Wuding has received teachings from you and obtained your helping hand. All of Yin Shang would be grateful towards you.”

Shen Lian extensively sized up Tianyi. This mild-mannered man was no less terrifying than Emperor Xia.

If Emperor Xia was like the sharp summit of a mighty mountain, Tianyi was akin to the dark depths of still water.

Tianyi calmly received Shen Lian’s sizing up. Tianyi did not avoid the gaze and his eyes met with Shen Lian’s.

Shen Lian leisurely said, “There is no need for gratitude as I am in no such a mood. There is one thing I must ask you and please, do not try to hide anything from me.”
