196: Chapter 125: The Book That Baffled Successive Ancestor Masters 196: Chapter 125: The Book That Baffled Successive Ancestor Masters Qin Ming also smiled and said, “Qing Yue has told about it, but I didn’t expect it to co so soon.”
“Who else could it be?” ng Xinghai urged him to “test” his power.
Qin Ming nodded and said, “There are others, Tang Xumi, Hu Tingwen, Su Jingshu, and other core disciples, who owe a famous cultivation technique.”
Those people had said they discovered the fragnted Scripture of “Divine Ape Power”, a renowned Heavenly Light Force.
It was just uncertain whether these people would keep their promises, and even if they didn’t betray their word, they would probably send the Scripture to Li Qingyue first.
ng Xinghai said, “You’re quite sothing, kid.
You’ve gained quite a lot on this trip.”
Qin Ming nodded.
He had acquired a great bounty and was already content.
He didn’t delay any longer and quickly went with ng Xinghai to see soone.
The quaint living room was furnished with ancient pieces like bronze trees, three-legged furnaces, and in the incense burner, Calming Incense was slowly burning, with wisps of smoke curling up like silken threads.
An elderly man was seated there, savoring tea, not young in years, his hair silver and white, but his complexion was ruddy and his spirit vigorous.
Upon seeing him, ng Xinghai called out, “Uncle Li.”
Seeing this, Qin Ming consciously lowered a generation and paid his respects to Master Li.
The old man’s eyes shone like two golden lamps as he opened and closed them; his spirit was too abundant.
He stood up, smiling and nodding, saying, “Not bad, good child.
I’ve co here especially to thank Xiao Qin for helping Qing Yue successfully obtain the item close to Immortality.”
This was a person from a Hidden Family, and he must be an elder closely related to Li Qingyue.
“Actually, I didn’t help much.
Even without , Qing Yue would surely have co out on top,” Qin Ming modestly said.
The old man smiled, not lingering on this subject and said, “This ti, I’ve brought a special cultivation technique with quite a history, and it’s also extrely difficult to cultivate.”
He took out three pieces of paper and said, “Take a look first.
Think it over slowly, no rush.”
Hearing him say this, Qin Ming beca quite curious.
What kind of cultivation technique would it be that would bring such a senior elder in person?
He took it into his hands, and it appeared to be freshly transcribed, the script still faintly scented with ink.
Li Qingyun spoke, “This is exactly like the original.
In fact, every stroke and line has been copied exactly, to avoid any hidden secrets.”
Hearing the old man say this, Qin Ming couldn’t help but be surprised.
The text must be sothing extraordinary to be treated with such gravity.
That was not the end of it.
Li Qingyun took out three copper coins, each corresponding to a blurry human figure sketch, outlining many intricate lines.
He inford, “These are the diagrams corresponding to the three pages of Scripture, also proportionally restored, even the blurriness is consistent.”
Qin Ming nodded, the other party being so ticulous made him turn serious.
Holding the paper, he carefully studied it in correspondence with the copper plates.
Soon, his brow furrowed.
Who wrote this Scripture?
It was too general.
The text ntioned Body and Spirit, discussed in broad strokes, aiming for the long term.
“Life decaying, heaven and earth, never-ending tis…” Reading this, Qin Ming exhaled a breath of turbid air.
He was still practicing Heavenly Light Force and had just embarked on the Newborn Road; these three pages were already discussing longevity.
It should be noted that even the old seniors from the Outer World and the top experts of Esoteric Buddhism couldn’t escape death; they had their final day.
Moreover, their lifespans were not exaggerated.
Most importantly, Qin Ming felt the three pages of Scripture were “talking in the air”!
Because there were no detailed skills, the words on the paper were very general, and combined with the three vague sketches, one could interpret it in any way.
If this were not an elder of the Li Qingyue family, he could have mistaken them for a charlatan or a swindler.
Li Qingyun, while sipping tea, said, “Don’t put pressure on yourself, there is plenty of ti.
This Scripture has stumped many people, and even those who have gained so understanding have found different things.”
“What did others realize?” Qin Ming asked.
Li Qingyun said, “Very few people can comprehend anything, but those who have, are all renowned figures.
Among them, so have lived to old age and extended their lives; so were dull-witted, yet suddenly beca enlightened; so with diocre talent, yet suddenly transford their root bones; so with withered bodies, but lived a second life through their spirits.”
He seed quite longing, contemplating dreamily.
ng Xinghai added, “Those ntioned before, they are all significant figures, like an Ancestor Master of Chunyang Palace, an old head of Yin Yang Temple, and the founder of Five Elents Palace, among others.”
Hearing this, Qin Ming was taken aback.
The content on these three pages had a much larger implication than he imagined, even involving historical Celebrities.
“I’ll take another careful look.” His expression beca unprecedentedly serious, fully imrsing himself to understand the secrets within.
Li Qingyun consoled, “There really is no rush.
I’ll be here for half a month, plenty of ti.
As long as your Body or Spirit feels anything special, it ans you are destined with it, and you should gain sothing.
After all, those historical figures started the sa way, initially only feeling so abnormalities, and it was only through years of practice and comprehension that they eventually ‘transford’.”
ng Xinghai described the origin of the Scripture, obtained from the deeper parts of Yewu World during the Great Expansion Period, with only a handful of people gaining anything from it.
Even those with profound cultivation might not attain comprehension, like the founder of Heaven Supporting Strength, whose power was breathtaking and physical strength reached the pinnacle of existence, capable of tearing apart the heavens.
Yet, after three years studying this book, he didn’t even grasp the slightest insight and was so enraged he almost tore it to shreds.
Had it not been for soone stopping him, that book, despite its peculiar material, would probably not have survived.
Qin Ming read for half a two-hour period, feeling a heat in his brow and a sense of swelling pain, so he took a break.
Li Qingyun put down his teacup and said, “In a sense, it’s like a mother scripture; it may not give you specific skills, but it can certainly provide a lot of inspiration and possibilities.”
This scripture is thought to be more suited for those on a Different Path, as most of those historically benefiting from comprehending it were Celebrities of this road.
Seeing Qin Ming temporarily set aside the three pages, ng Xinghai also spoke, “In the Outer World, a powerful old senior like Li Qingxu’s master, over a hundred years ago, had imnse pride and self-confidence.
He too studied this book for five years but ultimately, nothing ca of it.
It’s said that old senior’s face turned dark for over half a year because of it.”
Qin Ming couldn’t help but be surprised; this book seed incredibly notorious.
Li Qingyun nodded and said, “Yes, the original of this book is currently in the Fangwai Heaven Pure Land, collected and preserved there, but it has collected dust in that Scripture Pavilion for many years.”
This was frustrating: a book beneficial to those on a Different Path ended up in the hands of outsiders, evidently reflecting the current state, status, and disparity between the two paths.
ng Xinghai said, “In the current age, according to public records, only a few individuals have gleaned a little from studying this book.”
“It indeed seems difficult; each era only has so few who gain so enlightennt,” Qin Ming remarked as he resud his study, only to feel his forehead heating up again.
A thought struck him—could this be the so-called peculiar sensation?
Li Qingyun nodded, “That’s already quite a few.
Considering the past thousand years, how many have understood this book?
To be precise, not a single person has fully grasped it; they’ve only captured parts of its chapters.”
Qin Ming had no choice but to stop again; he drank so tea to feel out that state and sense whether there were any abnormal changes in himself.
ng Xinghai said, “The Li Family this ti has requested Lu Zhen, a Core Disciple from the Yin Yang Temple, to temporarily serve as a Golden Armor Guard, aiding Li Qingxu in the struggle for a Close Immortal Item.
Besides offering the Yin Yang Temple many treasures, they reportedly agreed to arrange for Lu Zhen to go to the Outer World and read this book.”
Although the book was in the Outer World, it wasn’t sealed away; by paying a certain price, one could study it.
For instance, Cui Chongxuan, who practiced the Six Imperial Forces, was being actively arranged by the Cui Family to have an opportunity to comprehend it there.
And Cui Chong He, an undeniable seed-level figure and Core Disciple of the Outer World, had already studied the book; whether he gained anything was unknown to outsiders.
As an outsider, Qin Ming’s chance to read this scripture naturally ca from Li Qingyue’s active planning.
ng Xinghai, afraid that Qin Ming would feel pressured over not comprehending, consoled, “Studying this scripture entirely depends on fate.
After all, even the founder of Heaven Supporting Strength felt nothing from it, cursing as he threw it out the window.
If all else fails, we could switch to another Miracle Technique.”
“Are Ancestor Masters that down-to-earth?” Qin Ming exclaid in surprise.
ng Xinghai responded, “You seem to have missed the point; I’m trying to get you to relax.”
“I am relaxed; it’s just that my brow feels hot.”
“As long as you’re relaxed—huh?!”
“What did you say?!”
Suddenly, both ng Xinghai and Li Qingyun put down their teacups, staring at him with increasingly brilliant beams in their eyes.
Qin Ming said, “I have a preliminary sensation, but it’s too faint; let ponder it more.”
Li Qingyun suddenly stood up.
How many greats had been stumped by this book?
Recognized as one of the most challenging Ancient Scriptures, truly only “fate” could lead one to understand it.
Indeed, not just the founder of Heaven Supporting Strength, but also the founder of the Six Imperial Forces had secretly “pondered” over it, only to end up clueless.
However, that Ancestor Master, being more concerned with face, warned those in the know not to leak this information, threatening to strike them into one hundred and eight pieces with the Six Imperial Heavenly Light if they did.
Li Qingyun had also studied these three pages of scriptures in his younger days and understood nothing.
Now witnessing a youth possibly on the verge of enlightennt, how could he not be astounded?
This youth was matching the Celebrities of legend!
ng Xinghai’s emotions fluctuated.
The Xiao Qin he fancied seed to exceed expectations every ti.
To perform like this in front of Uncle Li made him feel rather proud.
He originally thought Qin Ming would most likely be “defeated,” but in reality, Xiao Qin remained vigorous, able to extract so essence even from one of the hardest Ancient Scriptures.
Qin Ming said, “I’m not in the best state today; it’s quite strenuous to comprehend it.
My forehead keeps getting hot and sore.
I’ll continue to delve deeper; it seems like I’ve grasped sothing.
These three pictures seem to have beco clearer, different.”
“In your current state, you can still extract part of the content from this Ancient Scripture?” Li Qingyun skeptically wanted to ask ng Xinghai, “Does this young man always speak like this?”
He was truly disconcerted.
Despite his own efforts with a bath and Calming Incense, he couldn’t understand it; this was sowhat infuriating!
Li Qingyun felt that if Li Qingxu’s master knew or those old-tirs heard Qin Ming’s words, they would probably want to burst out and beat him up.
“He is indeed quick at comprehending scriptures usually,” ng Xinghai coughed and interjected.
“I feel like my body is also gradually heating up,” Qin Ming inford, experiencing a new sensation.
Li Qingyun couldn’t stay seated any longer.
To have two peculiar sensations one after the other was unprecedented.
