Miracle Farmer with Special Abilities-Chapter 714 - 0 Transmitting Dao_1
As the night deepened, the Longyin Martial Arts Hall did not become quiet. In a large hall, Li Taiqing sat cross-legged on a high platform, preparing to teach the Dao. This meant describing in detail the epiphanies and realizations he had during his cultivation, which would be greatly beneficial to all the disciples. Even Zhang Bin was looking forward to it.
Although he practiced a different cultivation technique, the Qingmu Longevity Technique, the path to becoming powerful was the same. It required enlightenment and an understanding of the Heavenly Dao. Only by gaining personal insights and connecting one’s body with the universe could one cultivate Daoist Magic and become even stronger. For a Cultivator, the ultimate asset wasn’t strength, speed, or Magical Treasures, but Daoist Magic. For example, the Thunder Technique Zhang Bin had comprehended was incredibly terrifying; unleashing his Orange Thunder could threaten even a Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator.
All the disciples sat cross-legged below, filled with anticipation.
However, six people were missing; Ma Rufei and the five other goofballs hadn’t come.
"Where are those six bastards?" Zhang Bin demanded.
Zhang Lele giggled and said, "Reporting to the Sect Leader, they are now in the Ancestral Master’s Shrine, bound within the Ancestral Master’s Magical Treasure."
She was small but cunning. Upon seeing the six goofballs acting suspiciously, she had followed them and naturally witnessed the entire process of them being bound. After all, she was much stronger than them, having already reached the Mid Stage of the Qi Sea Realm. They stood no chance of detecting her.
Zhang Bin was speechless. Li Taiqing was also astonished, unable to comprehend how such foolish disciples could exist—all six of them trapped there. The other disciples covered their mouths to stifle their snickers.
"Well then," Li Taiqing said, "let’s go to the Ancestral Master’s Shrine to teach the Dao. If I say anything incorrect, perhaps the Ancestral Master will correct me."
The Ancestral Master’s Shrine was very spacious, capable of accommodating several thousand people. Most importantly, the six goofballs would be able to hear as well. So, they immediately moved over.
Upon arriving, they found that the group of goofballs were indeed bound there. Seeing so many disciples come over, the faces of the six turned crimson. This was just too embarrassing.
Li Taiqing first paid his respects to the Ancestral Master before sitting cross-legged on the platform and beginning his sermon.
Everyone listened with rapt attention, because Li Taiqing’s lecture was truly marvelous. He explained his cultivation process in a way that was both profound and simple, and he articulated his epiphanies succinctly.
Even Zhang Bin learned a great deal. Some doubts that he had never quite understood before suddenly became clear as day, as if a dense fog had been lifted from his mind.
Li Taiqing spoke for a full three hours before stopping, having only covered very basic concepts.
At the end, he said, "In the future, I will give a lecture once a month. These teachings are enough for you to comprehend thoroughly for the next month."
"Thank you, Ancestral Master," the disciples said gratefully before departing reluctantly.
Of course, the few goofballs who had been bound had already been released by the Magical Treasure, and they departed as well. They probably won’t dare to cause trouble here again.
However, Zhang Bin, Li Taiqing, the seven fairies, and Red Leaf did not leave. They remained seated cross-legged, exchanging cultivation insights. The seven fairies had previously cultivated to the Mid Nascent Soul Stage, and although it was a shortcut, they still possessed unique realizations. Therefore, this exchange was greatly beneficial to everyone, and even Li Taiqing gained a lot from it.
As the exchange concluded, dawn was approaching.
Zhang Bin had the seven fairies and Red Leaf withdraw before saying seriously, "Father-in-law, there must be a reason why the Ancestral Master won’t let you obtain the Jade Scroll. I estimate that if you acquired the subsequent cultivation technique now, you would have no problem breaking through to the Nascent Soul Realm with the help of elixirs. However, you might find it impossible to cultivate to the Integration Realm in the future. Your foundation hasn’t been properly laid, and your body and mind have not been purified to a sufficient degree. The Ancestral Master would never entrust the legacy to someone who couldn’t even reach the Integration Realm."
After a pause, he continued, "Therefore, I want to impart to you a miraculous cultivation technique."
Immediately, he transmitted the Pure Heart Mystique to Li Taiqing.
After practicing it for a moment, a look of shock appeared on Li Taiqing’s face. "This technique is truly miraculous," he said excitedly. "It can purify the Soul!"
"Purify the Soul? Isn’t it supposed to purify the mind?" Zhang Bin asked, astonished.
"Mind is a general term," Li Taiqing said excitedly. "What it truly purifies is the Soul. Your realm is not yet high enough to distinctly feel your own Soul. Therefore, you cannot yet comprehend the mystique of purifying the Soul."
So that’s how it is. A Cultivator can only break through bottlenecks rapidly when both their body and Soul become pure. It’s just like the True Qi in the Dantian; only when it becomes purer and more refined can it contain more wondrous power and nourish my Seed.
Zhang Bin had an epiphany, feeling his understanding of the Pure Heart Mystique ascend to a new level. Li Taiqing was truly a cultivator of orthodox Daoist techniques; his Soul was certainly much stronger than those of the seven fairies. That was why they had not yet sensed that the Pure Heart Mystique purified the Soul, not the body or the mind.
"Father-in-law, merely cultivating the Pure Heart Mystique isn’t enough to purify your Soul quickly. You also need to accumulate a vast amount of Merit. I think from now on, you should serve as the acting Sect Leader of the Daoyi Sect, managing it on my behalf. As long as you work for the good of the country and its people, you can obtain immense Merit. What do you think?" Zhang Bin said with a sly smile.
Managing the Daoyi Sect was not easy and required a great deal of energy. Zhang Bin had no desire to waste so much time on it when he needed to focus on his own cultivation. He also wanted to spend romantic moments with his many beauties. He had better ways to accumulate Merit, such as continuing to research medicinal formulas to cure diseases.
Li Taiqing was an excellent candidate to manage the Daoyi Sect in his place. Having cultivated to the Golden Core Realm Great Perfection, he was far stronger than Si Yangze. Furthermore, Li Taiqing was righteous, possessed a wealth of life experience, and would have the assistance of Zhao Dawei, Qian Bing, and Sun Tie. His management of the Daoyi Sect would surely be free of problems.
This way, Li Taiqing could also acquire immense Merit. As the Sect Leader, Zhang Bin would naturally receive a share of that Merit as well. And of course, this would free him up. If he wanted to pick a fight, he could go provoke foreign powers.
"Alright. I will manage the Daoyi Sect in your stead, gain immense Merit, and enhance my practical combat experience," Li Taiqing agreed without the slightest hesitation.
"An iceberg in the pool, its cold energy enters the body... refine it into the bloodline, and comprehend the Mysterious Ice..."
Suddenly, Zhang Bin heard a faint, indistinct voice, as if the Ancestral Master Statue was imparting the Dao. His face lit up with surprise, and he immediately focused his mind, listening attentively. Gradually, he fell into a mystical state of enlightenment.
Clearly, the Ancestral Master Statue truly possessed Divine Skills. It had sensed the iceberg within Zhang Bin’s Dragon Pool, but Zhang Bin had not yet refined it and thus hadn’t mastered the Ice System Law. The iceberg was detrimental to his body, so the statue had begun to impart the Dao.
