Two scrolls.
One was a Low-Level Heaven Grade fire-elental cultivation thod!
The other was a Quasi-Heaven Grade fire-yang cultivation thod, but—it ca with a matching Quasi-Heaven Grade Dou Technique!
Which one should he choose?
Wei Yang frowned, unable to make a decision.
For him, the Quasi-Heaven Grade fire-yang thod was undoubtedly the most suitable choice.
However, the difference between Quasi-Heaven Grade and a true Heaven Grade was a massive chasm.
Quasi vs. True.
The gap was no less than the difference between Half-Saint and Dou Sheng!
Damn this old man! He really was filthy rich, yet he had the nerve to act all hesitant earlier.
And now—he suddenly threw out two options just like that.
Wasn’t this a test of willpower?
Which cultivator could resist such a test?!
Wei Yang groaned internally, his mind trembling.
He hated making multiple-choice questions the most!
...
A mont later.
Seeing Wei Yang’s conflicted expression, Yao Lao chuckled slyly.
"Heh, Brat Wei, what’s wrong? Have you made your choice yet?"
Wei Yang smiled bitterly. "Senior, you really know how to make things difficult."
Yao Lao stroked his beard, a hint of smugness flashing across his face.
This little brat doesn’t know how to respect his elders?
I’ll teach him a lesson in no ti.
"How is this difficult? I’m giving you two cultivation thods to choose from—what more could you ask for?"
Yao Lao continued, "There is indeed a huge gap between Heaven Grade and Quasi-Heaven Grade, but the latter still bears the ’Quasi’ title. The difference isn’t completely unacceptable."
Wei Yang nodded.
Makes sense. Go on.
Yao Lao continued, "Though there is a matter of compatibility—your attribute is fire-yang, but ultimately, fire is still your primary elent, while the yang aspect takes up a smaller portion.
So, in terms of pure effectiveness, the Low-Level Heaven Grade fire-elent thod is the best fit for you."
"However—the Quasi-Heaven Grade fire-yang thod is undeniably the most aligned with your attributes. Plus, it cos with a matching Quasi-Heaven Grade Dou Technique. Once you reach Mid-to-High Dou Zun, you’ll likely be able to unleash its true potential!"
"With a cultivation thod paired with a compatible Dou Technique, the power they unleash is far greater. You already have a High-Level Xuan Grade set—so you understand the advantage of synergy.
In the future, such a combination could barely rival a Low-Level Heaven Grade Dou Technique in strength."
"But—" Yao Lao smirked, "Right now, you’re only a Dou Wang. The distance between you and Mid-to-High Dou Zun? Heh—that’s a long, long road...
So if you pick the Quasi-Heaven Grade thod, you won’t be at a loss. In fact, you might even gain a little extra.
However, the Low-Level Heaven Grade fire-elent thod would bring you imdiate benefits, significantly increasing your cultivation speed.
Sigh~ This really is a tough choice, huh?"
Wei Yang stared at Yao Lao expressionlessly.
Old bastard, you’re toying with !
Ahhhh—flips the table!
You rambled for half a day, yet you only stated the obvious!
Did I not already know this? Did I need your useless explanation?!
Damn it! Now the choice was even harder!
His mind had already been leaning toward one option, but after Yao Lao’s words, he was now hesitant again.
Ti passed slowly.
Yao Lao didn’t rush him.
Instead, he simply gazed admiringly at the Green Lotus in Wei Yang’s hand—more precisely, at the green fla flickering in its lotus heart.
Beautiful.
A true heavenly treasure.
Just looking at it, one could feel the innate spirituality it possessed.
...
Finally—
Wei Yang gritted his teeth and made his choice.
He pointed to the red-gold scroll, his voice slightly strained.
"Senior, I’ll take this one."
Yao Lao withdrew his gaze from the Green Lotus Core Fla, glancing at Wei Yang’s final decision.
He was sowhat surprised—yet not really surprised.
With a grin, he said, "Brat, are you sure about this? Heaven Grade is still Heaven Grade. Quasi is just... quasi."
Wei Yang clenched his teeth, nodding firmly. His finger remained steadfastly pointed at the Quasi-Heaven Grade red-gold scroll.
"No need for further persuasion, Senior. This is my choice."
"...Since you’ve made your decision, I won’t say anything more."
Yao Lao shook his head.
"I just hope—you won’t regret it in the future."
He put away the dark-red scroll, then waved his hand, sending the red-gold scroll floating toward Wei Yang.
Seeing this, Wei Yang also gently pushed his hand forward, making the Green Colored Lotus Platform hover and slowly drift toward Yao Lao.
Yao Lao’s eyes lit up, and he carefully cradled the Green Lotus with his translucent hands.
Wei Yang let out a slow breath and took hold of the red-gold scroll.
To be honest, this choice had been incredibly difficult for him.
In the end, it took an enormous amount of willpower to suppress the temptation of the Heaven Grade cultivation thod and opt for the Quasi-Heaven Grade one instead.
Perhaps—it was a matter of intuition.
When faced with an impossible decision, he chose to follow the faint instinct deep in his heart.
That was what led him to make this choice.
Wei Yang slowly unfurled the scroll and let his soul power seep into it.
Instantly—
A vast amount of information surged into his mind!
—
Great Sun Burning Heaven Art, a Quasi-Heaven Grade cultivation thod, Fire-Yang attribute...
"If one can find a suitable Fire-Yang fla, the power of this thod will be no weaker than a true Heaven Grade thod... For example, the Gold Emperor Incinerating Heavenly Fla, ranked fourth on the Heavenly Fla Ranking.
A full Gold Emperor Incinerating Heavenly Fla isn’t necessary; even a single sub-fla with sufficient power would be enough..."
—
Great Sun Burning Heaven Palm, a Quasi-Heaven Grade Dou Technique...
"When executed, it is like a great sun rising across the sky, burning mountains and boiling seas as if it were nothing.
If one acquires a sub-fla of the Gold Emperor Incinerating Heavenly Fla, this Dou Technique’s power can rival a true Heaven Grade Dou Technique...
Unfortunately, despite a century of effort, I was only able to cultivate a Yang Fla with power comparable to a Heavenly Fla—but it was never a true one.
Since creating this thod and Dou Technique, I have never been able to obtain a genuine Fire-Yang Heavenly Fla... A lifelong regret."
—
After carefully absorbing all this information, Wei Yang slowly opened his eyes, his heart filled with emotion.
As expected of a Quasi-Heaven Grade cultivation thod and Dou Technique.
The complexity and power of this thod surpassed Furious Lion Blazing Art and Furious Lion Roar by countless tis.
The creator of this art must have been a peerless genius.
But...
A Fire-Yang Heavenly Fla...?
There weren’t many Heavenly Flas that fit this requirent.
Gold Emperor Incinerating Heavenly Fla?
Was he dreaming?
That was the Gu Clan’s inherited fla!
Ranked fourth on the Heavenly Fla Ranking—though not as mysterious as the Purifying Demonic Lotus Fla, it had an unstoppable reputation since ancient tis.
The Gold Emperor Incinerating Heavenly Fla was said to be able to burn even Dou Qi itself!
According to legend, the first wielder of the Gold Emperor Incinerating Heavenly Fla once obliterated an entire space created by a Peak Dou Sheng—reducing it to nothingness.
Even just a sub-fla of this terrifying fla would be impossible for an outsider to obtain.
The Gu Clan’s dominance would never allow it!
Even among the Gu Clan, Gu Xun’er had a sub-fla of the Gold Emperor Incinerating Heavenly Fla, sealed inside her body.
It was a protective asure placed by the Gu Clan.
If fully unsealed, its power would rival a Low Rank Dou Sheng!
Furthermore, splitting a sub-fla from the Gold Emperor Incinerating Heavenly Fla would damage its core essence, requiring a long recovery period.
Thus, for the creator of Great Sun Burning Heaven Art—his wish to acquire a sub-fla of the Gold Emperor Incinerating Heavenly Fla was utterly impossible.
Unless...
You were a high-ranking mber of the Gu Clan, a descendant with Divine Bloodline, or soone with the power to defy the Gu Clan, there was no chance of getting it.
Otherwise—
Even if soone managed to obtain a sub-fla through so ans, they wouldn’t be able to keep it.
They’d be hunted down by the Gu Clan!
—
Wei Yang flipped his hand, putting away the red-gold scroll, exhaling lightly, his eyes flashing with thought.
At this mont—
Yao Lao had already reinforced the Green Colored Lotus Platform with multiple seals, before carefully storing it away.
"Heh, Brat Wei," Yao Lao grinned, "now that you’ve read the technique, how do you feel?"
—
Truth be told—when Yao Lao first presented the two scrolls, he was already certain that Wei Yang would most likely choose the Great Sun Burning Heaven Art.
Did Yao Lao not know about the hidden pitfall in this thod?
Of course, he did.
Unless Wei Yang wanted to court death, the Great Sun Burning Heaven Art would forever remain a Quasi-Heaven Grade cultivation thod and Dou Technique.
No—
Even if Wei Yang wanted to court death, there was no chance of success.
The Gu Clan...
Who dared to sche against them?
Unless—
Wei Yang one day managed to create his own true Heaven Grade Fire-Yang cultivation thod based on the Great Sun Burning Heaven Art...
But that would have to wait until he beca a Mid-Level Dou Sheng at the very least.
Yet by that ti—
Wouldn’t it be better to just create a new thod that suited himself instead of struggling with this flawed one?
Why cling to sothing that was neither here nor there?
Thus—
Yao Lao had subtly dug a small pit for Wei Yang to fall into.
—
By choosing this thod—
Unless Wei Yang stumbled upon a fortunate encounter and obtained a true Fire-Yang Heaven Grade thod,
He would be stuck with a Quasi-Heaven Grade thod until at least the Dou Sheng level!
Quasi-Heaven Grade wasn’t bad—
But at a high level, it beca an awkward bottleneck, like a chicken rib—
Too weak to be satisfying, yet too valuable to discard.
This was Yao Lao’s little revenge—a small payback for Wei Yang extorting him earlier.
After all—
"The old but not dead are called thieves."
The world was a cruel place.
Young people like Wei Yang couldn’t fully grasp its dangers.
In the end—
He had still been tempted by that Quasi-Heaven Grade Dou Technique and walked right into the trap.
In truth—
This was a hidden pit.
Wei Yang definitely wouldn’t realize it now.
Perhaps—
Only when he reached Mid-to-High Dou Zun would he finally discover—
The true gap between Heaven Grade and Quasi-Heaven Grade!
But by then—
Even if he realized it...
Would he have the face to co complain to Yao Lao?
After all—
This was Wei Yang’s own decision.
Who could he bla?
