Chapter 36: Chapter 33: Outraged
The True Martial Dao Zang was built within the mountain of Dragon Tiger Mountain, hidden to an extreme extent.

The inside space was large, with walls densely engraved with text.

“These characters were all written by Celestial Masters from various generations.”

“They contain the essence of cultivation.”

“You should not observe them frequently.”

“Just gaze upon them occasionally.”

“Otherwise, it will affect your cultivation.”

Master Cang Qing reminded them.

Aside from Lin Yuan, the other four Qingping had already crowded around, staring intently at the characters on the wall.

It was only after Master Cang Qing’s reminder that the Qingping reluctantly shifted their gazes away.

“Your main focus now should be on comprehending the Fire Pearl and the Ice Pearl.”

Master Cang Qing led everyone to the center of the Dao Zang.

There, two stones were placed, one with a reddish surface and the other with a deep blue surface.

Faintly, a great amount of heat and cold emanated from them.

“These Fire and Ice Pearls were formed from Crystal Stones from the deep depths of the East Sea, capable of containing and preserving various kinds of essences.”

“The Celestial Masters of my Celestial Master Mansion often infused their power into them.”

“Accumulated over a long period, they have formed what the Fire and Ice Pearls are today.”

Master Cang Qing explained.

Upon hearing this, Lin Yuan looked thoughtful.

These Fire and Ice Pearls must be a greatly reduced version of the Power of Taiyang and Taiyin contained within the True Martial sword.

They were imitation artifacts that were attempted by Celestial Masters from generations past, in an effort to emulate the Power of Taiyang and Taiyin.

Unfortunately, whether it is due to the materials used or the vast difference in strength, even the Fire and Ice Pearls crafted with the power of generations of Celestial Masters, when compared to the Power of Taiyang and Taiyin in the True Martial sword.

They were still but the light of a glowworm compared to the daylight.

This was Lin Yuan’s first impression.

As Lin Yuan pondered.

Master Cang Qing continued, “Your main goal now is to perceive the Power of Taiyang and the Power of Taiyin from the Fire and Ice Pearls.”

“The strong ones in my Celestial Master Mansion usually take only two paths.”

“Taiyin Pole Extreme and Taiyang Pole Extreme.”

“Whether it’s Taiyin Pole Extreme or Taiyang Pole Extreme, if you can comprehend three or four parts, you will be able to step into the Celestial Phenomena Realm.”

Master Cang Qing scanned the crowd and continued speaking.

This was also the cultivational path set by the First Generation Celestial Master for the disciples of later generations.

Indeed, this had proven that these two cultivation paths were very strong, and the Celestial Phenomena Realm strength of the Celestial Master Mansion was always a bit stronger than that of the external Celestial Phenomena Realm.

This advantage was due to the Taiyin Pole Extreme or Taiyang Pole Extreme.

Even successive Celestial Masters took one of the paths within Taiyin Pole Extreme and Taiyang Pole Extreme.

However, the Celestial Masters could contemplate the true essence of the Power of Taiyang and Taiyin within the True Martial sword.

The effect was far stronger than the current Fire and Ice Pearls, and thus they progressed much further on the paths of Taiyin Pole Extreme and Taiyang Pole Extreme.

After finishing, Master Cang Qing sent the four Qingping away.

He then approached Lin Yuan.

“You do not need to feel the Fire Pearl and Ice Pearl.”

Master Cang Qing gazed at Lin Yuan.

Though he was unaware of the secrets inside the True Martial sword.

According to the records of the Celestial Master Mansion, the Celestial Masters who came to cultivate in the True Martial Dao Zang.

It seemed they were not much interested in the Fire and Ice Pearls.

Under such circumstances, the past Celestial Masters still led far ahead on the paths of Taiyin Pole Extreme and Taiyang Pole Extreme.

Master Cang Qing therefore surmised that perhaps the past Celestial Masters had other methods of cultivation.

“Mainly focus on the text on the walls, those are the insights and contemplations of the Celestial Masters, which should be helpful to you.”

Master Cang Qing’s expectation for Lin Yuan was to be a future Celestial Master.

Hence he made such a suggestion.

“Okay.”

Lin Yuan nodded.

The Celestial Masters of the Celestial Master Mansion were all beings who surpassed the Celestial Phenomena Realm.

Their insights and contemplations were naturally useful to Lin Yuan.

“If there’s any issue or difficulty, you can call me.”

Before leaving, Master Cang Qing specifically left these words for Lin Yuan.

Clearly, he held Lin Yuan in high regard.

 

In the following time.

Lin Yuan did not leave the True Martial Dao Zang.

He was served food and drink by the Taoists of the Celestial Master Mansion.

There was no need to go out.

Indeed, even if Lin Yuan wanted to leave, he could only stroll around Dragon Tiger Mountain at most.

The Celestial Master seedlings selected by the True Martial sword, before becoming Celestial Masters, were forbidden from leaving Dragon Tiger Mountain.

The main reason was to ensure the True Martial sword did not get lost.

The True Martial sword was key for the Celestial Master Mansion to produce a Celestial Master.

It absolutely could not be misplaced.

 

Time slowly passed.

In the blink of an eye, more than half a year passed.

Lin Yuan sat cross-legged in front of a stone wall.

It was engraved with a plethora of texts.

These texts were left by the eighteenth generation Celestial Master of Dragon Tiger Mountain.

They narrated this Celestial Master’s insights and contemplations on the path of Taiyang Pole Extreme.

[Your perception is incredible, observing the Celestial Master’s Stone Wall deepens your understanding of the Dao of Yin and Yang]

 

Half an hour later.

Lin Yuan opened his eyes.

“I’ve finally fully transformed.”

Lin Yuan’s face lit up with a smile.

During this period, aside from comprehending the Dao of Yin and Yang,

the remainder of his time was spent converting his previously attained Celestial Phenomena Realm’s true power entirely into the Power of Taiyin and the Power of Taiyang.

Using either the Power of Taiyin or the Power of Taiyang as a foundation to step into the Celestial Phenomena Realm, his strength would be twenty to forty percent stronger than usual.

This was only the initial change.

In terms of potential and cultivation speed, both Taiyin Pole Extreme and Taiyang Pole Extreme surpassed other Celestial Phenomena Realm powers by far.

Originally, Lin Yuan would have needed fifty years to surpass the Celestial Phenomena Realm.

But after converting his foundation into Taiyin Pole Extreme and Taiyang Pole Extreme, even without relying on the essence of Taiyin and Taiyang from the True Martial sword,

the time to surpass the Celestial Phenomena Realm was reduced to merely twenty or thirty years.

This saved him nearly half the time.

“Shanfeng,”

“how is your comprehension coming along?”

Just then, Qingping hurried over.

“Ah, the Fire Pearl is too difficult to comprehend, I haven’t figured out much yet…”

Qingping said with a disappointed face.

“Take your time,”

“don’t rush.”

Lin Yuan offered comfort,

Qingping had chosen the path of Taiyang Pole Extreme, and thus was trying to comprehend the Fire Pearl.

Although the effects of the Fire Pearl were far inferior to the True Martial sword, having it was better than none. With Qingping’s qualifications, recognized by the Celestial Master’s sword, patiently contemplating it for years, would surely bear fruit.

“Shanfeng, how about your comprehension?”

Qingping seemed to think of something, looking at Lin Yuan with expectation.

“I have made some progress,”

Lin Yuan thought for a moment, then raised his right hand. A trace of the Power of Taiyin and the Power of Taiyang twined and collided between his fingers.

“Wow,”

“Shanfeng, you are so incredible!”

Qingping’s eyes widened.

Although amazed, Qingping showed no hint of disbelief,

for ever since that day within the Sword Tomb, when Lin Yuan held the True Martial sword, all the Taoist children felt an irresistible aura emanating from him.

Latterly, Master Cang Qing reminded them several times not to compare themselves with Lin Yuan.

Lin Yuan was the future Heavenly Master, destined to overlook the world. Comparing themselves with Lin Yuan might disturb their state of mind,

making it very difficult for them to step into the Celestial Phenomena Realm.

So…

Upon seeing Lin Yuan controlling both the Power of Taiyin and the Power of Taiyang at the same time, Qingping merely marveled.

The other three Taoist children also gathered around, their eyes blinking in envy,

 

Half a month later.

Master Cang Qing and two other Celestial Phenomena Realm masters arrived.

They prepared to check the cultivation progress of the four.

First was Qingping, who tried to lift his hand, with a faint trace of scorching breath circulating.

“Not bad,”

“You’ve made it to the threshold.”

Master Cang Qing nodded,

He too followed the path of Taiyang Pole Extreme and was particularly sensitive to the scorching breath of the world.

Next were the three Taoist children.

One of them managed to make it to the threshold on the Taiyin Pole Extreme path, just like Qingping.

The other two still hadn’t made it to the threshold.

“Taiyin Pole Extreme and Taiyang Pole Extreme are obscure and difficult to comprehend, even with the aid of the Fire Pearl and Ice Pearl, entering the threshold is no easy task…”

The essence of what Master Cang Qing meant was to encourage everyone not to lose heart, to slowly perceive and steadily cultivate.

After checking the cultivation progress of the four Taoist children.

Master Cang Qing’s gaze fell on Lin Yuan.

Not just Master Cang Qing, but the other two Celestial Phenomena Realm masters too,

Lin Yuan had been chosen by the True Martial sword, a seed of the future Heavenly Master.

Among the other four Taoist children, two had reached the threshold in their comprehension of either Taiyin Pole Extreme or Taiyang Pole Extreme.

What then could be expected from Lin Yuan, the most talented among them?

Master Cang Qing and the other two Celestial Phenomena Realm masters were quite eager to find out.

“Master,”

Lin Yuan stepped forward, raising his right hand.

Both the Power of Taiyin and the Power of Taiyang emerged, constantly colliding and intertwining, occasionally emitting an even deeper aura.

“Incredible,”

“Shanfeng has grown stronger again,”

“I wonder when we’ll reach Shanfeng’s realm.”

Seeing this, the other four Taoist children began to discuss among themselves.

Among them, even those who had reached the threshold had only gathered the Power of Taiyin or the Power of Taiyang as thin as a hair,

whereas Lin Yuan had gathered both to the thickness of a thumb,

The difference was clear at a glance.

What the Taoist children did not notice, however,

was that as Lin Yuan was simultaneously channeling the Power of Taiyin and the Power of Taiyang,

Master Cang Qing’s face suddenly turned grim.

“Who allowed you to simultaneously cultivate both Taiyin Pole Extreme and Taiyang Pole Extreme?” Master Cang Qing’s face even reddened with distress as he looked at Lin Yuan,

“Either Taiyin Pole Extreme or Taiyang Pole Extreme alone are paths to the heavens,”

“But cultivating both is a path to death, a dead end,”

“Yin and Yang are inherently opposing forces; you might not notice anything initially while cultivating both, but the deeper you go, the more troublesome it will become.”

“The third generation Celestial Master of our Celestial Master Mansion wanted to cultivate both Yin and Yang, introducing the Power of Taiyin into his body with his Celestial Master status, only to end up exploding to death.”

“By doing this recklessly, have you considered the consequences?”

Master Cang Qing was nearly driven mad with anger and couldn’t help but reprimand Lin Yuan.
