134: Chapter 57: What a Coincidence 134: Chapter 57: What a Coincidence “This, this disciple of Wanyun Sect, really only has the cultivation of the Void Refinent Realm?”
“Doing nothing, doing nothing, isn’t this the state that our cultivation of the Taoist heart aspires to?”
“The cultivation aims for a state of inaction and tranquility, not an absence of affection nor the annihilation of desires…
Alas!
Though ‘all is emptiness’ behind and before, haven’t we walked this world to leave so traces?
Doesn’t the earth and sky amid the vast void bear more color because of our journey?”
“I’ve realized it!
Hahaha!
Your poor Daoist has realized the truth!”
The various areas of the Watchtower Floor gradually beca noisy and tumultuous.
The immortals from Sea Watch Sect had already left in an embarrassing state with those four ‘debate experts’.
Within the elegant room, Li Ping’an’s spiritual sense witnessed this scene and he pondered to himself.
What just happened to ?
Ordinarily, stopping after making my point would have been enough; there was no need to show off like that; but at the ti, there was a compelling urge in my heart to thoroughly suppress these four Sea Watch Sect disciples before I could feel satisfied.
A youthful impulse?
Li Ping’an carefully analyzed his feelings again and noticed a slight fluctuation in his emotions.
He was actually a bit annoyed.
Annoyed by the Sea Watch Sect’s repeated provocations;
Angry that these Sea Watch Sect disciples, condescending as they were, sought to destroy Gu Qingcheng’s indomitable spirit in the sword dao.
This type of scholarly debate seems peaceful, but for so Qi Cultivators, it is quite dangerous.
‘I must hurry back to the sect.
Remaining outside for another hour can lead to different complications.’
Thinking this, Li Ping’an was ready to take his leave.
“Senior brother!”
Gu Qingcheng called out from the side, her eyes blazing as she stared at Li Ping’an, “Can you teach that state of inaction?”
Li Ping’an laughed, “That, I really can’t teach at all.”
The three Yuan Sect female disciples who had been staring at Li Ping’an since their return to the elegant room couldn’t help but cover their mouths and giggle upon hearing this.
Ningning Mu leaned a bit closer to her senior brother.
Gu Qingcheng’s face fell, “Senior brother, is it that I lack the insight?
I knew it, my master saying that I have extraordinary talent was deceiving .”
“Don’t belittle yourself too much, Brother Gu, you have quite a talent for the sword dao,”
Li Ping’an said patiently,
“The state of inaction was just a bluff to them, where did I get any insights into the state of inaction?
“They are ‘not full vessels, half-baked and shaking’, and I just poked at the difference between ’emptiness’ and the ‘state of inaction’ pursued by our Taoist Sect’s Qi Cultivators.”
“This kind of debate can only destroy one’s Taoist heart, it’s unlikely to have any real insights.”
“Compared to that, the Plain Heart Tao of my master is much more profound.
It strives to keep one’s natural disposition simple and observe the whole world with an unburdened gaze.”
“When I debate with my master, she often discerns the principles of the world in just a few words.
These four disciples of Sea Watch Sect combined, do not even possess a tenth of my master’s power.”
He explained in such a way, both to highlight his own master and to dissuade further similar questions.
Gu Qingcheng nodded thoughtfully.
Li Ping’an stealthily scouted the room’s disciples and a few Yuan Sect immortals, and found that there was no one with ‘eyes wide in realization and heavy breathing’, which slightly relieved him.
In the past two years, many within the sect had joyously claid that his father, Li Dazhi, was the Grand Wealth Immortal, and he was the Enlightened Immortal who could enlighten Qi Cultivators below the Yuan Immortal Realm to help them break through to Yuan Immortal.
This ti in the debate, Li Ping’an had actually used many principles that he himself had not fully understood;
If this were to lead others to a breakthrough, his unnecessary reputation would grow further.
An unwarranted reputation is also a burden after all.
No, that’s not right!
There seems to be an aged immortal here who has reached the peak of Heavenly Immortal Realm but has never achieved longevity!
Li Ping’an’s Taoist heart quivered suddenly, and he turned to look for Elder Xu Sheng’s figure.
Suddenly, a large hand heavily slapped Li Ping’an on the back, nearly causing him to cough up blood.
“Truly so!”
Elder Xu, full of emotion, exclaid,
“How co all the good disciples are picked up by Kongming!
Sigh, is it really because I’ve spent too much ti refining artifacts and damaged my own fortune?”
Li Ping’an, holding back a cough, turned to look at Elder Xu’s expression and saw that Elder Xu’s bottleneck was firm and stable.
He then sighed with relief in his heart.
It’s good that he hasn’t gained any insights!
If he were to enlighten a Heavenly Immortal to ascend to Golden Immortal, who knows how many old grandpas and grandmas at the Heavenly Immortal Realm would co knocking at his door!
This matter, with speakers unintentional and listeners keen, who can explain it clearly?
Who can fully comprehend it?
But now…
he is also a man who has withstood a strike from a Heavenly Immortal!
Although the elder definitely held back ninety-nine percent of his strength.
“Elder,” Li Ping’an said earnestly, “I must apologize for my discourtesy, but I really cannot stay here any longer, I need to return to the sect now.”
Xu Sheng frowned, “Hey, what’s the rush?
Aren’t we just starting to drink?
I had them arrange it as if it was a month-long Immortal Banquet!”
“Please understand, elder!”
Li Ping’an urged,
“Sea Watch Sect has already had their face swept twice by , their elaborate arrangent for the six sects’ disciples’ training ended up with our four clueless ones taking the lead, and they cluelessly damaged one disciple’s Taoist heart.
“Now they’ve had another disciple’s Taoist heart destroyed by , that person being too indulged in his understanding of the Dao of Emptiness, not realizing the difference between what I spoke of and what he understands is essentially the difference between the Ancestral Master’s Tao and the Western Tao lineage.”
“Seeing how the Sea Watch Sect behaves, all are sowhat hasty and bizarre…
I really cannot stay here long!”
As Xu Sheng was about to speak, Elder Yansheng from the side proactively interjected, “Elder, why don’t you co and sit at our Wanyun Sect?”
