Chapter 1946: Chapter 1947: Mute Zen
The Taiji Immortal Sword, resonating with the forces of heaven and earth, completely lost its sword form and transford into two black and white yin-yang fish, directly charging towards the sky.
Under the influence of the sword montum, waves surged and clouds billowed, directly painting a huge Tai Chi Diagram in the air.
As the endless Heavenly Dao Breath poured into Yu Yanshu’s body, her unconscious form floated into the air, accepting the baptism of this imnse Heavenly Dao Breath.
Su Chengyu could feel the endless lifeforce converging into Yu Yanshu’s body; Daoist Chongping used this Innate Taiji Diagram as a dium, reversing the flow of the entire world’s Heavenly Dao Breath into Yu Yanshu’s body.
“Senior…”
Su Chengyu watched this scene with furrowed brows, unable to predict the outco.
But he knew, regardless of the final result, Daoist Chongping, who served as the dium, could not continue to live.
“Who says Wudang has had no true master after Zhang, the True Master? Daoist Chongping is worthy of that title.”
Long Xuan spoke calmly, giving Daoist Chongping the highest comndation from the Wudang Sect.
However, for Chongping, who had already resolved to die, all these seed unimportant.
As the lifeforce gathered within Yu Yanshu, Chongping’s presence grew increasingly weak.
One’s improvent ant another’s fall.
This restoration couldn’t completely eliminate Yu Yanshu’s latent dangers, but Chongping’s death was a certain outco.
Just when everyone was preparing to mourn Chongping’s final monts, a beam of white light flew out from within him, landing directly in front of Su Chengyu.
Seeing the harmless white light, Su Chengyu hesitated for a mont but ultimately extended his hand into it.
As the presence entered his body, a venerable Spiritual Body slowly coagulated and erged within Su Chengyu’s Sea of Consciousness.
“Senior?”
The elder slowly spoke: “What is it? Don’t recognize this old monk with a change of appearance?”
Su Chengyu was slightly startled: “Is this the real appearance of the true master?”
“What’s surprising about that? I’m a disciple of Zhang, the True Master, joined over 400 years ago, shouldn’t I be an old fellow by now?”
Wudang has been established for over 500 years, so Daoist Chongping, as a first-generation disciple, naturally wasn’t young.
“Senior revealing this form ans you’ve already…”
“Yes, the oil in the lamp is running out. But don’t worry, I said I wouldn’t lose to your grandfather this ti, so I definitely won’t let that girl be in danger.”
“Thank you, true master.”
“Thank what? I rely refused to lose. Once, your grandfather was just another junior in front of , and not until I regarded him as an equal did I never beat him again. More accurately, no one ever beat him. Even though this ti, your grandfather intentionally wanted to lose to , I couldn’t pass up this opportunity.”
Su Chengyu was montarily at a loss for words. He knew what his grandfather was like but couldn’t fully understand that ntality since he never lived through that era.
“Don’t understand, do you? That’s understandable; after him, there hasn’t been anyone leading the era ahead of their ti. Your confusion is normal, but unfortunately, I don’t have ti to tell you about your grandfather’s past right now.”
Upon hearing this, Su Chengyu’s expression cald. He knew that if Chongping was coming to see him at this last mont, it wasn’t just for a few idle words.
“I can stabilize your disciple’s condition for now, but besides the part I transferred to you, it seems soone else has taken a large portion away. That’s the fundantal cause of her severe internal deficiencies—I can prevent the situation from worsening temporarily, but to completely save her, you must solve this matter yourself at that place.”
“Cui Manlou?”
Su Chengyu slightly frowned, imdiately thinking of the instigator of all this.
After all, even before this incident, Su Chengyu was already perplexed by Cui Manlou’s actions. After investing so much effort, Cui Manlou gave up so quickly without any reluctance, which seed strange. Now, everything made sense in context.
“Those guys from the Demonic Path, huh? I probably won’t be much help at this stage. It’ll be up to you.”
“Don’t worry, senior, this is what I should be doing.”
“Yes, one more thing. Although I am a senior, all my learning cos from Wudang. While I can teach you things, your current situation renders external learnings not very useful for you. However, I promised your grandfather that if I t you, I’d look after you a bit, so I must leave you with sothing. This scroll, it’s yours now.”
A buzz.
A Yin Yang Scroll appeared before Su Chengyu, with black and white fish swimming anxiously within, seemingly reluctant to part from Chongping.
“Senior, isn’t this the Wudang’s heirloom Immortal Artifact?”
“Indeed, it’s the foundational piece given by my master, without which he wouldn’t have achieved Enlightennt of Taiji, and founding Quanzhen. But nowadays, Wudang doesn’t need this. In your hands, maybe it’s still useful, especially since… your sword has also reached a critical juncture.”
“What do you an by this, senior?”
“This isn’t The Immortal World, there are only twelve positions for Immortal Artifacts. For your sword to join, it must replace one, so…”
Su Chengyu’s eyes widened in surprise, not expecting that the other party would be willing to go so far. Just as he was about to speak, Chongping raised a hand and stopped him.
“Alright, I’ve made up my mind. If you don’t want this responsibility, just return it to Wudang when the world is at peace. Now, the last piece of business, which is most important.”
Not giving Su Chengyu a chance to refuse, the Taiji Diagram was already tossed into his Sea of Consciousness, quickly sinking down.
Su Chengyu watched the scene, swallowing hard; reluctantly, he said: “In that case, thank you, senior.”
“Hmph, grateful yet playing humble. That’s not a good trait. This last matter pertains to you personally, as your grandfather specifically instructed to tell you.”
“Grandfather?”
“Yes. The path you tread is not a common one. Now, with assistance from yourself, your disciple, and your father, you’ve already taken the first step. But the process must have been agonizing, especially the refining and rebuilding of yourself.”
Su Chengyu nodded. If not for initially sidestepping by using others’ ridians to experint first, he wouldn’t have reached this point.
“And all these challenges stem from the path you used to walk. In essence, it was an ordinary path. Now, traveling a new route, the past cultivation thods will continuously bother you, like maggots in your bones, potentially culminating in complete failure.”
Su Chengyu’s expression turned serious as he asked: “Did my grandfather ntion any solution?”
“Of course, he planted it within you decades ago.”
“It’s already within ?”
Chongping nodded: “Do you rember how you first achieved Enlightennt?”
Su Chengyu thought for a mont before answering.
“Mute Zen.”
