Chapter 1211: Chapter 1210 Qilin’er

After relaxing from mastering the Sword Opens Heaven’s Gate, Lu Yang continued to study cultivation techniques.

The matter of cultivation techniques was related to his future path in cultivating, so, even though Eldest Senior Sister helped him revise the techniques to guarantee a base level, Lu Yang dared not slack off.

Months passed by, during which Lu Yang had stayed in the Scripture Pavilion and had never left the top floor.

He had memorized all the techniques on the top floor and had analyzed the strengths and weaknesses of others’ techniques.

"Guan Shanhai’s ’Mountain and Sea Immortal Technique’ can evolve the heaven and earth, The Controller’s ’Sealing God Technique’ can become the source of faith; whether it’s an immortal level technique or a tribulation crossing level technique, each inherently possesses a significant effect."

"The sole effect of the ’Mind Seeing Method’ is to persist on one’s true self, to see one’s nature clearly... Fairy, could the condition to condense the Eternity Dao Fruit be to persist in true self and to see one’s nature clearly?"

Recalling Sister Mengmeng and the Fairy’s behavior, Lu Yang could easily identify a common trait between them.

"Have you always said I could condense the Eternity Dao Fruit because of this reason?"

Floating around Lu Yang, Immortal Fairy chuckled upon hearing his words: "Indeed, it’s one of the reasons."

"The most fundamental condition for the Eternity Dao Fruit is that the heart must remain immortal, unaffected by the passage of years, without major personality changes or deviating from one’s original intention."

"Are there many such people?" Lu Yang could not recall seeing anyone like that.

Yawning, Immortal Fairy continued: "There are many, it’s just that you have cultivated too quickly and never had the chance to meet such people. In ancient times, Immortal here had seen countless such people, living longer and pursuing power, becoming less and less human."

"You don’t have to worry about this when cultivating the Clear Mind Technique."

Lu Yang suddenly understood; Eldest Senior Sister initially made him cultivate the Clear Mind Technique likely for this purpose.

Understanding the true meaning of the Clear Mind Technique, Lu Yang had new ideas for continuing the Tribulation Crossing Chapter.

...

"Eldest Senior Sister, this is the new technique I’ve written."

Lu Yang took out the recently written technique, his months of accumulation and enlightenment all focused within this text.

Remembering the times when he had shown his techniques to Eldest Senior Sister, Lu Yang felt nervous, neither able to sit nor stand, fearing Eldest Senior Sister might say it was insufficient.

It was not until he noticed Eldest Senior Sister’s slight smile that his heart trembled.

"Well written."

"Eldest Senior Sister, has my technique passed?"

Yun Zhi did not directly answer his question but returned the technique to Lu Yang: "Since you reached the Transcendance Tribulation Stage, each thing you do may become an opportunity to form an outline of your Dao Fruit; and your technique is particularly significant for the Dao Fruit Outline."

"If I intervene too much, it might actually harm you; after the Transcendance Tribulation Stage, you must ultimately rely on yourself"

Hearing Eldest Senior Sister say this, Lu Yang did not feel overjoyed but felt a melancholic sense of loss.

The path Eldest Senior Sister had laid out for him ended here; he could grow without her protection, which also meant that she would no longer provide help in his future cultivation.

Boom—

A sudden clap of thunder interrupted Lu Yang’s sadness.

"Is someone going to Pass Tribulation?"

Following the sound of the thunder, Lu Yang saw it originated from Old Meng’s location.

"That’s right, it’s time for Old Meng to break through."

With the lifting of the Sun seal and the restoration of the Sun and Lunar Power to the standards of the Ancient Times, Meng Jingzhou’s opportunities came one after another, surpassing the hardships of living.

Before Lu Yang had entered the Scripture Pavilion, he heard Old Meng had gone somewhere to experience the mortal trials.

Since it drew the thunder, it seemed the trials were highly successful.

Thunder, manifesting the might of heaven, repeatedly struck, and Meng Jingzhou’s figure appeared as tiny as an insect before the thunder, his body lacerated yet resiliently persevering.

"It’s strange, why does Old Meng have only eighty-one thunders?"

Lu Yang thought about himself facing one hundred sixty-two thunders; Old Meng should also have drawn at least one hundred sixty thunders.

"Could it really be that Senior Yingtian Immortal is targeting me?"

Like Meng Jingzhou’s tribulation, the Seek Dao Sect’s disciples also kept their eyes on Meng Jingzhou on the mountaintop.

Thunder Tribulation and Heart Tribulation had ended, and heavenly nectar descended to nourish Meng Jingzhou’s body.

Meng Jingzhou clenched his fist slightly, feeling the explosive power within his body, and he let out an excited long howl.

He had reached the Transcendance Tribulation Stage as well.

Once he condensed the Dao Fruit Outline and then the complete Dao Fruit to become an immortal, he would be liberated!

Becoming an immortal was within reach, how could he not be excited!

"Hahaha, excellent, excellent, the Meng Family has a successor!" Before anyone could celebrate, Meng Junzi unexpectedly showed up at Seek Dao Sect.

As the most outstanding talent of the Meng Family, Meng Jingzhou’s crucial event of Transcendance could not be missed by Meng Junzi.

Lu Yang noticed that Eldest Senior Sister’s expression was calm, not surprised by Meng Junzi’s arrival; he thought that Meng Junzi’s visit to Seek Dao Sect must have been informed to Eldest Senior Sister in advance.

"Great Ancestor." Meng Jingzhou got dressed before paying his respects. Eighty-one bolts of Thunder Tribulation would reduce any material to ashes.

"Truly worthy of being our Meng Family’s Qilin’er!" Meng Junzi had never been as happy as he was today.

No, defeating Jiang Pingan before the founding of the nation was equally thrilling.

"Great Ancestor, calling me Qilin’er, isn’t it a bit..." Meng Jingzhou carefully said, although Qilin’er sounded complimentary, it seemed that in the heavens and earth there was only one Qilin, the Qilin Immortal.

Wouldn’t that make him the son of the Qilin Immortal?

"That’s also true, never mind, it’s not important. Let me take you to meet a few old friends."

Meng Junzi, without further ado, dragged Meng Jingzhou along and headed straight for the Imperial City.

Recently, the Great Xia Royal Family had received invigorating news; the reclusive great ancestor Jiang Pingan had once again emerged to teach the princes and princesses cultivation.

Emperor Xia decisively "sold" his children—having the great ancestor personally coach them in cultivation was a privilege to be enjoyed by his descendants.

The princes and princesses toiled and sweated profusely, enduring bitter hardships.

Jiang Pingan, carrying a hoe, pointed out their improper movements strictly.

Meng Junzi barged into the Imperial Palace with Meng Jingzhou: "Oh my, Old Jiang, you can’t teach like this."

"Look at Jingzhou, this boy. I barely intervened, and he accidentally reached the Transcendance Tribulation Stage."

Meng Junzi patted Meng Jingzhou’s back: "Come on, call him Grandpa."

"Hello, Grandpa Jiang." Meng Jingzhou obediently greeted, clearly a well-mannered child from another family.

Jiang Pingan’s eye twitched, wishing he could swing his hoe at them.

"Old Jiang, the kid is calling you Grandpa, you have to give a meeting gift, right? I won’t ask for much, just any Immortal Artifact will do."

"I think that Taishang Sword of yours looks pretty good."

"Get lost!"

Meng Junzi left the Imperial Palace, satisfied, and continued to take Meng Jingzhou to meet old friends.

The grandfather and grandson duo toured three of the Five Great Immortal Sects. Only then did Meng Jingzhou realize that the original founders of the Five Great Immortal Sects, the five Semi-Immortals, were still alive.

Meng Junzi, thinking of his old friends’ envious and jealous looks, felt as refreshed as if he had drunk a bucket of iced sour plum juice during the height of summer.

"Jingzhou, if you have any wishes, just mention them. Your great ancestor will fulfill them!"

Meng Jingzhou joyfully said, "Great Ancestor, my good brother Lu Yang is backed by Eldest Senior Sister and feels more confident when he goes out. Can you become stronger than Eldest Senior Sister? That way, I’d feel confident too."

"What did you just say?"

"Can you become stronger than Eldest Senior Sister?"

"The sentence before that."

"My good brother Lu Yang is backed by Eldest Senior Sister."

"And before that."

"Great Ancestor."

"I am not your Great Ancestor, from today onwards you are Qilin’er."
