Contrary to the person who had two disciples die, Qing Yu was in a great mood right now.
It wasn’t because he felt refreshed from killing Qingxu; a Qingxu wasn’t worth such a big disturbance in Qing Yu’s heart.
After all, setting aside the feud between that so-called master and Xuan Chen, Qing Yu didn’t actually hate Qingxu. It wasn’t Qing Yu who was seriously injured twice and lost his life the third ti; and all those three tis could be considered Qing Yu’s own initiative.
The true reason for Qing Yu’s good mood was that he finally collected the Four Symbols Ultimate Skills.
With this, as soon as he fully understood the Four Symbols Ultimate Skills, Qing Yu would be able to create that martial arts he had long coveted through the "Four Symbols Produce Eight Trigrams".
Feeling good, Qing Yu felt his Luck Value also rising straight up, so...
Let’s draw a prize first.
"System, use that Interdiate Lottery."
This was also a major gain from killing Qingxu. After advancing to the Divine Origin Realm, the system’s lottery scope shrank again, eliminating all two-star items from the lottery range, so this Interdiate Lottery would only draw three-star items.
"Interdiate Lottery, drawing now..."
"Ding, congratulations to the host, you have obtained a three-star item ’Mountain Scripture’."
The ’Mountain Scripture’, from the Four Great Captains series of Divine Skills, is one of the three strongest martial arts of Yuan Shisanxian, the lifelong enemy of Zhu Ge Shen Hou.
Different from ordinary Internal Cultivation thods, the ’Mountain Scripture’ is more akin to a magic door for practice, blazing a new trail. It’s like painting, where others draw mountains and waters, ticulously detailing flowers and birds, with character sketches, yet the cultivators of the ’Mountain Scripture’ establish their own unique style, creating an inner world of people, the language of flowers, the birds’ songs, the molten lava beneath the mountain, and the fish in the deep waters.
This is a true "Heart" ntal thod, specifically for depicting the heart.
Qing Yu, feeling the ’Mountain Scripture’ secret manual that entered his mind, said to himself, "Good, when I break through to Mid-stage Divine Origin Realm, I need to find my own path. Even though I already know what kind of person I am, with ’Mountain Scripture’ to truly see through my own heart, I can better determine my own path."
Imdiately, Qing Yu closed his eyes and crossed his legs, following the magic door recorded in the secret manual to sink his mind into the deepest part of his heart.
With the assistance of the ’Heavenly Human Rebirth Technique’, Qing Yu easily achieved this.
In his heart, he ditated on himself sinking into an abyss, sinking, and for how long he did not know—it seed like a mont, and it seed like ten thousand years—Qing Yu felt as if he had passed through a layer of water curtain. When he opened his eyes, he found himself standing on an endless lake surface.
Calling it a lake surface, it was actually more appropriate to compare it to the sea. Qing Yu looked as far as he could, realizing that everywhere his eyesight reached, it was the water’s surface, rging with the sky in the distance, completely endless.
"This should be my Heart Lake."
Qing Yu lowered his head to observe his reflection in the water, lightly stomped his foot, and the lake surface rippled slightly. But these ripples barely spread around Qing Yu’s soles before disappearing.
Very unscientific, yet makes perfect sense.
The source of the ripples in this Heart Lake is not from external force on the surface, but rather a reflection of the state of Qing Yu’s mind. And the previous stomp, since there weren’t significant ripples in Qing Yu’s heart, therefore only caused such a small disturbance.
"My Heart Lake is really calm," Qing Yu stomped his foot again, though this ti, not even a single ripple ford.
Initially, in order to not let the negative emotions from several years of confinent affect himself, Qing Yu created the ’Heavenly Person Rebirth Technique’, which had the greatest impact on one’s ntal State by maintaining a Heart Like Still Water. Even if there were occasionally so waves, they could not shake Qing Yu’s spirit.
Also, with the effect of the ’Heavenly Person Rebirth Technique’ rging with heaven and earth, Qing Yu now found it difficult to find his true self in this calm Heart Lake.
"Forget it, just walk around for now."
In this way, Qing Yu walked on the water surface towards the place where the water and sky t in the distance.
His patience was surprisingly good. Even though there were no reference points to show the passage of ti, Qing Yu was constantly counting numbers in his mind.
Ten thousand and eight hundred, ten thousand and eight hundred and one... thirty-four thousand... forty-three thousand six hundred and forty-three...
So Qing Yu continued to count numbers as he walked on.
"One hundred and eighty-three thousand seven hundred... No, I can’t keep doing this." Suddenly, Qing Yu stopped counting and also stopped walking.
It’s not that his patience ran out, but rather he had the intuition that continuing in this way would still yield nothing.
With that being the case, it was better not to waste any more ti. It was unknown whether ti in this inner world was in sync with the outside world, and if he couldn’t find it soon, he would have to give up.
Otherwise, it would be ridiculous if Gong Ziyu, who had just killed the future Sect Leader of Zhenwu Sect, starved to death in his room.
"The path in my heart should be sought from this Heart Lake."
Qing Yu crouched down, viewing his own reflection on the water surface with deep attention. Below this surface, apart from reflecting his own image, there was also the thinly blue sky above, and in the depths of the Heart Lake, was a scene of profound depth.
"What else can this Heart Lake reflect besides my reflection?"
Having made up his mind, Qing Yu began to forcefully mimic the sensation of using the ’Heavenly Son’s Qi Observation Skill’. In one’s own heart, even without True Qi, one should be able to achieve whatever they desire.
Indeed, very soon, Qing Yu had a familiar sensation, that of using the ’Heavenly Son’s Qi Observation Skill’.
The dark scenery at the depth of the Heart Lake began to move away from Qing Yu, and the depths gradually beca clear.
And when the dark scenery completely receded, Qing Yu’s eyes were stained with another blackness.
It wasn’t a blackness void of light, but rather, atop the blackness, there were specks of starlight.
"This is... a Star Map... the night sky."
Qing Yu instantly looked up at the sky, where the Heart Lake that reflected the myriad stars, should be at this very mont.
However, the sky right now was a void, Qing Yu saw nothing. Yet at that mont, his perspective underwent a massive change.
The whole world flipped in an instant, the original sky moved below while the Heart Lake beneath Qing Yu’s feet beca the sky.
At that mont, Qing Yu was standing inverted in the air, looking up at the void below.
"This is truly wonderful."
Qing Yu smiled faintly, shifted his gaze down again... or perhaps up?
After the Heart Lake beca the sky, the original reflection also beca real stars, and at this ti, the entire starry sky was shrinking, shrinking.
Until the starry sky shrank to the extre, Qing Yu saw...
A pair of pale palms pressing down on the starry universe, now like a spherical shape.
And the owner of those palms...
Qing Yu looked over.
As expected, it was himself.
"Indeed, what I yearn for in my heart is precisely this."
