Cultivation Simulator: Starting From The Empress' Palace Chapter 32: Subordinates of the subordinates

Editor: Rainystars

Chen Mo’s consciousness gradually beca clear amidst the scriptures recited by Lin Su Ya.

Earlier in the ntal realm, he had used the Red Dragon Demon Arm against Lin Su Ya. Although he did not fall into a frenzy, it still stirred an inexplicable restlessness in his consciousness.

But now, this restlessness had completely disappeared under Lin Su Ya’s spiritual transformation.

He wanted to practice the Feather Nirvana Heart Scripture, but a thought crossed his mind, and the Thunder Jade Scripture appeared in his mind. He thought, why not try the power of this technique? So he focused his mind on the Thunder Jade Scripture and began to cultivate.

The Shenxiao Temple was located in a place abundant with True Qi. From above, one could see that the entire bamboo forest was encased in a trigram pattern, subtly emitting a Daoist charm.

Strands of True Qi, invisible to ordinary people, slowly flowed towards the Celestial Venerable Temple and entered Chen Mo’s body at a speed like flowing water.

Sitting cross-legged on a mat beneath the statue, Chen Mo’s robe fluttered as the white True Qi entered his body through his skin’s pores, mouth, nostrils, and so on.

If Chen Mo were to look up at that Celestial Venerable Statue at this mont, he would find that the statue seed to have co to life, gazing down at him.

Reciting the scriptures, Lin Su Ya raised her delicate eyebrows and slowly opened her eyes, murmuring: "Strange, why do I sense a thread of similarity to Fujin in him, and his root bones are even better than Fujin’s..."

...

The sumr rain suddenly intensified at night, pattering on the glazed tiles with deafening thunder that almost lasted the whole night.

The surrounding bamboo forest unexpectedly blossod overnight, adding a bit of color to the originally lush green bamboo forest.

Bamboo flowering is not impossible, just rare and irregular; so people never witness such a marvel in their lifeti.

Early in the morning, the palace maids and eunuchs who ca to the Shenxiao Temple to report to the Empress that His Majesty had awakened were all astonished by the grand scene.

Upon seeing Xiao Yunxi, they sycophantically exclaid, "The Empress’s sincerity has caused the Celestial Lord of Universal Transformation, Thunder God, to manifest and bless us, allowing His Majesty to awaken."

They also said the bamboo flowering and last night’s thunder were proof.

Because the Celestial Lord of Universal Transformation, Thunder God, is the highest heavenly deity of the Thunder Departnt.

Divine manifestations have happened from ancient tis to the present not just once or twice, and seeing those bamboo blossoms, Xiao Yunxi did not doubt it either and felt it was due to her sincerity.

So she decided to go to the Celestial Venerable Hall to fulfill her vow and burn Cai’Er’s copied blessing incantation for the Celestial Lord of Universal Transformation, Thunder God.

She happened to run into Chen Mo and Lin Su Ya coming out of the Celestial Venerable Hall.

Chen Mo quickly bowed: "This servant greets the Empress."

Lin Su Ya simply nodded at Xiao Yunxi and greeted her as the Empress.

"State Preceptor..." Xiao Yunxi bowed slightly to Lin Su Ya, then said, "Thank you for your guidance, State Preceptor. His Majesty has awakened, and I am here to fulfill my vow."

Lin Su Ya gently shook her duster and nodded.

Then Xiao Yunxi turned her gaze to Chen Mo, her expression complex: "I never expected, little Hong’er, that you could join the Shenxiao Temple. In this sense, you are a student of His Majesty."

Lin Su Ya had given the position of sect leader of the Shenxiao Sect to Zhao Huizong.

Now that Chen Mo joined the Shenxiao Sect, in a certain sense, he could not be considered the Emperor’s disciple.

As for being Lin Su Ya’s disciple, due to the sensitivity of his identity, Lin Su Ya did not reveal it.

Upon hearing this, Wang Ying, behind Xiao Yunxi, trembled all over, bowing even lower.

"Thanks to the Empress’s blessing, this servant had the opportunity to be noticed by the State Preceptor, and from now on, this servant will serve the Empress more diligently," Chen Mo said.

Upon hearing this, a smile suddenly appeared on Xiao Yunxi’s sowhat haggard face, and she unexpectedly raised her hand to pat Chen Mo’s shoulder, saying:

"I didn’t misjudge you, you’re attentive. From today onwards, I allow you to co to the Shenxiao Temple every day at the You hour to follow the State Preceptor and study Daoist Techniques."

"Thank you, Empress." Finishing, Chen Mo was about to bow down.

But Xiao Yunxi stopped him, saying, "Let’s dispense with these formalities in the future."

"This servant dares not."

"I permit it."

"Thank you, Empress."

Xiao Yunxi was slightly startled, but the smile on her face deepened, saying, "Your congee is quite tasty."

"I’ll make so for the Empress right away," Chen Mo said.

Xiao Yunxi nodded and then glared at Wang Ying before entering the hall.

Wang Ying, fearful, evidently angered the Empress by secretly badmouthing Chen Hong just now.

Then he hurried to follow.

Chen Mo was just about to leave.

Lin Su Ya whispered, "I have concealed your presence. As long as you’re not in front of a First Grade expert, they won’t notice anything strange about you. However, never reveal the Five Thunders Technique in front of other Shenxiao Sect disciples, or your identity will be exposed. If the Emperor pursues this, even I cannot protect you."

"Disciple understands." Chen Mo was very curious about the kind of relationship Lin Su Ya maintained with the Emperor, given that her words did not convey respect for the Emperor.

Lin Su Ya nodded, flicked her duster, and her figure flickered several tis before disappearing from Chen Mo’s sight.

Chen Mo felt a longing in his heart.

To be honest, he wanted to learn.

He would ask tonight.

...

After giving the congee he had made to Xiao Yunxi.

When Xiao Yunxi finished eating, she went to the Taihe Palace.

She did not let Chen Mo accompany her.

Chen Mo was happy with this.

Arriving at the Celestial Venerable Hall, taking advantage of Lin Su Ya’s absence, he also touched the remaining two statues.

...

Simulation complete.

Chen Mo’s eyes widened.

The Celestial Thunder Duke General and Eight Directions Cloud Thunder General are subordinates of the Celestial Lord of Universal Transformation, Thunder God.

He already possessed the unparalleled Ninefold Jade Purity Great Brahma Purple Mansion Thunder Jade Scripture. Choosing this again would be redundant.

Is the gap between Golden Talent and Golden Talent really so significant?
