The ignorant are fearless.
Conversely, it makes sense too.
The little white fox is afraid precisely because it understands the prohibitions everywhere in this place.
Therefore, even though its four little short legs tremble, everything is calm and peaceful along the way.
"Chirp chirp!"
Suddenly, it stopped in front of a half-collapsed short stele.
This stele is slightly better preserved than the others, but it’s also covered with cracks, its body is grayish-white, and the carvings are still relatively clear.
The little white fox pointed at the stele with its paw as if urging Chen Ye to take a look.
Chen Ye felt a ripple in his heart.
This stone stele forest is said to be the place of cultivation technique inheritance of the Songyang Sect.
The other steles they passed by on the way had their inscriptions blurred by the passage of ti.
Could it be that the little white fox ans this stele is still intact?
He walked closer, squatted down, and examined it carefully.
After a mont, Chen Ye frowned.
Although this stele looks intact on the outside, the carvings on it are still unclear.
But since the little white fox let him stop, it definitely has its reasons.
Thinking of this,
Chen Ye composed himself, infused spiritual power into his fingertip, and cautiously touched the cold surface of the stele.
At the instant the spiritual power entered, the deeply profound patterns on the stele seed to co to life, faintly glowing with extrely weak light.
This is indeed not an ordinary boulder!
Chen Ye’s spirits lifted as he slowly traced the patterns with his fingertip, carefully feeling the spirit and charm within.
Yet despite his nurous insights, he could not comprehend anything from the patterns.
Chen Ye felt a great sense of frustration, as if a treasure mountain lay before him, yet he couldn’t gain anything from it!
"Damn... could my comprehension really be that low?"
He couldn’t help but doubt himself; such things with a Dao aning always required a brilliantly insightful individual to comprehend at least a bit.
"Chirp chirp~"
The little white fox chuckled mischievously, shook its head in a pretentious manner, and even heaved a lodramatic sigh.
Judging by its appearance, the little white fox had expected this and was just waiting to watch him make a fool of himself!
Chen Ye’s face darkened, how dare this little fox mock him?
The little white fox, however, was not frightened at all, pointed at the stele, then pointed at itself, full of righteous indignation.
Its aning was quite obvious:
I brought you to a good place, but it’s you who couldn’t comprehend it, how could that be blad on the fox?
Poor fox, with all its good intentions...
Chen Ye, for a mont, had nothing to say, then he saw the little white fox sigh, running to Zhiwei’s feet, indicating Zhiwei should go over.
So, this opportunity was specially prepared by the little white fox for Zhiwei...
"Damn fox, I fed you all those pills for nothing."
Chen Ye gritted his teeth and waved Zhiwei over.
The little white fox was even more disdainful.
Hmph, how could it be blad?
It was just that Chen Ye was too dumb, even worse than the disciple!
It squatted on the ground, expectantly watching the black-haired little girl touch the stele.
In its heart, it had already decided that once Zhiwei comprehended sothing, it would mock Chen Ye harshly!
Unexpectedly, after observing for a long ti, Zhiwei sounded dejected: "Master, even I can’t figure it out..."
"Chirp chirp?" The little white fox was stunned, beginning to doubt its own fox life.
Though it’s said that only those with exceptional insight can comprehend the Tao Stele.
But... but Zhiwei clearly is a remarkably talented little girl.
The little white fox was still doubting its fox life, unable to understand why Zhiwei couldn’t comprehend it.
And Chen Ye already understood, feeling quite helpless: "Do you think I don’t know your mind? Don’t care about Master’s pride, your cultivation achievents are the best support for Master."
No need to guess.
Chen Ye knew that Zhiwei, worried about hurting his pride, deliberately avoided comprehending it.
This sounded very absurd; giving up such a great opportunity just for Master’s pride.
But to Zhiwei, it made perfect sense...
"Hmm..."
On one side was the Master’s order, on the other was the Master’s pride.
Zhiwei felt as if her left brain were attacking her right brain.
Nonetheless, the priority of the Master’s order was the highest.
She gently placed her palm on the stele.
In just an instant, the stele responded, its glimr flashing.
The black-haired little girl closed her eyes and was already imrsed in it.
"Chirp chirp?!"
The little white fox was dumbfounded. It had expected that Zhiwei’s exceptional insight might allow her to glean so understanding, but it never thought she would directly comprehend the Dao!
This was too unbelievable!
It rembered that in the records of the Songyang Sect, cultivators who comprehended the Earth Elent Tao Stele were few in number.
And for those who did, it generally took dozens of days of observation, with the fastest record still requiring five full days!
Chen Ye had not given up.
Even with average aptitude and unremarkable talent, Chen Ye had relied entirely on extraordinary perseverance throughout his journey... along with so assistance from the proficiency panel.
"Logically speaking, with the proficiency panel, effort should equate to reward; as long as you strive, there will be results. I wonder... if it works on the Tao Stele?"
Chen Ye mused silently, continuing to attempt to comprehend.
The little white fox, just recovering from its stupor, saw Chen Ye persistently trying to comprehend and chirped with laughter again.
Foolish human race.
The Tao Stele depends on insight; those who can’t comprehend will never understand it in their lifeti!
Chen Ye ignored the little white fox; as annoying as it was, the little fox was indeed a great contributor and couldn’t be blad.
He continued to trace those esoteric patterns with his divine sense repeatedly.
One two-hour period... two two-hour periods...
Sweat had already ford a fine layer on Chen Ye’s forehead, and his complexion had turned pale from the ntal exertion.
"Chirp chirp~"
The little white fox beside him had already beco impatient from watching.
It yawned, rubbed its eyes with its front paws, and looked at Chen Ye with eyes clearly saying, "If you can’t do it, don’t force it."
But just as Chen Ye was starting to feel a bit discouraged.
The proficiency panel finally jumped!
