Xu Qing silently picked up the chess piece his master had dropped and placed it where it should have been placed. He then looked at his master.
"The Ghost Emperor Mountain has transformed into my appearance."
Old Master Seventh fell silent and closed his eyes in deep thought.
A huge commotion stirred in his mind. He knew that his disciple's comprehension ability was astonishing. He had clearly sensed this outside the Ghost Emperor Mountain back then.
He also heard about Xu Qing's performance in Absolute Beginning Separation City. He had comprehended almost 300 battle marks.
However, he was still shocked by Xu Qing's words. After all, back then, he had only asked Xu Qing to move a god into his sea of consciousness to suppress the distracting thoughts produced by the golden cores snatched by the Bizarre Nether Dao Snatching Art.
'I only asked you to build a small wooden hut but you built a city.'
The latter is even asking me in surprise, "How did this happen?"
Old Master Seventh was mentally exhausted. After a long silence, he coughed and calmly spoke.
"That's your mind. Your mind is strong and you can affect external gods yourself, causing them to be controlled by you in your body and change with you as the source. So, you don't have to worry too much."
"This is a kind of realm. First, you have to move it, then accumulate spirit, and then turn it into your own item. However, you still have to work hard and not be complacent just because you think this step happened easily."
"Since ancient times, many almighty people have used a similar method. After visualization, they tried to replace them. This isn't possession but seizing the Dao. However, this matter is too difficult for you."
"Because the Ghost Emperor is actually not complete and his Dao is incomplete. So, when you can form more external objects on the Ghost Emperor Mountain and make it more complete, it will be considered…"
Hearing his master's words, Xu Qing fell into deep thought. He thought of the Absolute Beginning Separation Pillar on the hands of the Ghost Emperor Mountain in his sea of consciousness and couldn't help but speak.
"Master, there's also a rod. Can it be considered an external object? It looks like the Absolute Beginning Separation Pillar."
Old Master Seventh was stunned for a moment and fell silent. A storm stirred in his mind.
Xu Qing was a little nervous.
"Fourth, you have one bad habit." After a long time, Old Master Seventh spoke hoarsely.
"Next time, finish your sentence in one go!"
Xu Qing blinked and nodded.
"What other changes?" Old Master Seventh asked worriedly.
"That's all. Oh right, Master, I have a feeling that this Ghost Emperor Mountain can be stimulated by me under certain circumstances but I can't do it yet. Master, do you have a way?" Xu Qing asked hesitantly.
0Old Master Seventh suddenly stood up and his eyes gleamed as he looked at Xu Qing carefully. At this moment, there was no longer only storm raging in his mind, but massive waves as well.
'Could this kid be the reincarnation of the Ghost Emperor? No, he's not from the Yinghuang Province. He was born in the Nanhuang Continent and doesn't have the Ghost Emperor's bloodline in his body. I've already confirmed this before.'
'Can a person's comprehension ability be so powerful?'
ραпdα Йᴏνêl(сòm) 'What kind of disciple did I take in?'
'Or is his innate talent related to comprehension?'
Old Master Seventh took a deep breath. After noticing Xu Qing's puzzled expression, he coughed lightly and maintained a calm demeanor. He then walked around and stood as though he was only looking at the clouds in the distance.
"Fourth, look at the clouds in the sky."
Xu Qing lifted his head and looked at the sky.
"Look at the appearance of the clouds. They are very clear, but in reality, their true appearance isn't like this. They are formed by water vapor meeting cold in the sky and merging together. Also, the appearance of the clouds is formed by the attachment of water vapor to the dust between heaven and earth."
"The Ghost Emperor Mountain in your sea of consciousness has a similar principle."
"Don't think about revealing it in one go. It's wrong to pay too much attention to the Ghost Emperor's form."
"You have to spread out the Ghost Emperor Mountain and reveal its aura like water vapor. After that, observe their changes and find the points that make them active."
"After that, with the anomalous substances as attachment, the figure of the Ghost Emperor can be formed in places with dense spiritual Qi and anomalous substances. Also, I suggest that you try to change its appearance. This way, no one will be able to recognize it and think that you're using divine art."
Old Master Seventh slowly spoke and Xu Qing heard a rumbling in his mind.
His master's answer was simple and easy to understand. He looked at the clouds in the sky and instantly understood.
At this moment, it was as though he had been enlightened. As his thoughts cleared, Xu Qing couldn't help but reveal a look of enlightenment, accompanied by deep reverence.
To him, this was like the echoing of a bell.
Xu Qing stood up and bowed to his master.
His expression and actions finally made Old Master Seventh feel comfortable. He laughed and sat down again to pick up the chess pieces, leisurely placing it on the chessboard.
Xu Qing sat at the side with sincerity. As they continued playing, he asked his second question.
Regarding the relationship between spirit plants and gods.
This question caused a strange glint to appear in Old Master Seventh's eyes. After pondering for a long time, his expression slowly changed.
"Spirit plants are indeed better at adapting to such changes than flesh-and-blood creatures after the god's fragmented-face arrived…"
"I've been studying that god specimen. What you said is correct. Plants with divinity. This is indeed a train of thought that can be tried."
"Studying gods. Perhaps divine spirit plants are a key."
This time around, both sides felt that they had gained a lot from the communication. Xu Qing was in a good mood and Old Master Seventh was also refreshed. After that, he asked Xu Qing about some things during the Sword Holder's trial. He was naturally curious about Xu Qing's answer too.
"Son of a b*tch!" His master laughed loudly and the gaze he used to look at Xu Qing became even more admiring.
"I wonder how Eldest Senior Brother answered. Why is it only ten feet?" Xu Qing was also puzzled.
"Is there a need to guess your Eldest Senior Brother's answer? He must have tried to randomly bootlick or flatter. However, even if it's bootlicking, he wouldn't only get ten feet light." Old Master Seventh curled his lips.
"According to my understanding of him, it's very likely that he said the emperor is a god. Coupled with your answer that got 100,000 feet light, he was basically scolding the emperor."
Xu Qing blinked. He felt that there was a high chance that this was the case.
"In three months, you will set off for the capital of Fenghai County. There is a branch of the Alliance there."
"The county capital of Fenghai County is the center of a county. As a top faction in the Yinghuang Province, although the Eight Sects Alliance isn't much in a county, they are still qualified to set up a stronghold in the county capital."
"Therefore, there is this branch sect. Although its status in the county capital isn't high, it still can take care of you guys."
"Master and the ancestor have other plans, so we won't be going with you. Another group of people will set off for the county capital with you. They will be the cultivators staying in the branch sect. There will be an ancestor presiding over this journey. As for who it is, it has yet to be confirmed."
"The Peak Lords of the other five peaks will also go over. This time, the Sword Holders of the Alliance are all from our Seven Blood Eyes. In that case, we have to obtain some control over the array formations and teleportation arrays of the branch sect."
Xu Qing nodded. He had heard the captain mention it before but it wasn't as detailed. At this moment, he completely understood it.
"Also…" Old Master Seventh picked up a chess piece and pondered for a moment.
"According to the information I have, the capital of Fenghai County is transformed from a high-grade Taboo magic treasure."
"High grade?" Xu Qing's gaze froze.
"Taboo magic treasures are also divided into grades. Most of the Taboo magic treasures in the Yinghuang Province are low-grade. Their might is extremely different from high-grade ones, but the way they operate is actually more or less the same," Old Master Seventh said calmly.
"If you don't understand the rules of the operation of Taboo magic treasures and go to the county capital like this, it's inevitable that your knowledge will be a little shallow."
"Fourth, you have to remember that any detail can affect the changes in the future and can't be ignored. Only by having a well-thought out plan can you find a point to hide yourself and not be discovered by others, and land a fatal blow at a critical moment."
"Don't forget the spirit of the Seventh Peak."
Xu Qing nodded solemnly.
"You're setting off in three months, don't waste your time in the sect for the next three months. Make a trip to the Seven Blood Eyes' Taboo ground. As a Treasure Bearer, familiarize yourself with the operation of the Taboo magic treasure."
"This way, when you reach the county capital, you won't have shallow knowledge of Taboo magic treasures and it will be convenient for you to do things. Also, with your relationship with your Eldest Senior Brother, I don't need to say much. You will naturally take care of him."
Xu Qing stood up and respectfully acknowledged.
"However, I have to remind you that during the Treasure Bearer period, you can't use the Taboo to look at the god's fragmented-face. You can't look at the sun and moon, the few large factions in the Yinghuang Province, and the core of the forbidden region either. You can occasionally look at the Forbidden Sea, and you can look at the forbidden zone as you please. The other places are also up to you."
Xu Qing was confused. He thought of the appearance of the Seven Blood Eyes' Taboo magic treasure and made some connections.
"You don't have to think too much. You'll know when you get there." Old Master Seventh put down a piece and ended the chess game with a calm smile.
"Fourth, your chess skills have improved a lot but you're still inferior to me."
When Xu Qing heard this, he looked at the chessboard with admiration on his face.
"Master is still the best."
Old Master Seventh laughed.
While Old Master Seventh was happy because he had won the chess game, far away outside the Yinghuang Province, above the Forbidden Sea, a green-faced malicious ghost with fangs was riding the clouds.
This malicious ghost was 10,000 feet tall and very huge. Its eyes were red and its body was covered in scales. There were also chains wrapped around it.
As it passed, huge waves surged from the Forbidden Sea below.
And above the malicious ghost's head sat two people.
One was an old man in a gray robe. He clearly had a hunchback and his face was covered in age spots. His skin was sallow and he looked sickly.
Beside him was a young girl in a plain white dress. She was about 16 or 17 years old and looked fresh and elegant. At the same time, her appearance was beautiful and flawless, like a sparkling pearl. A hint of childishness could be seen between her brows.
His eyes contained innocence without the slightest impurities. They were like clear water, causing one to involuntarily feel tender love for her and not be able to bear to hurt her.
At that moment, the old man was persuading her. However, the young girl started to look a little unhappy and aggrieved.
"Father, I still want to go to the Yinghuang Province."
"I didn't say I wasn't letting you go to the Yinghuang Province. Lass, let's go to the county capital first. You can accept the inheritance, and then we'll go to the Yinghuang Province. This way, when your Brother Xu Qing sees you, he'll definitely like you even more. After all, after you accept the inheritance, you'll be even more powerful."
The old man from Panquan Road coughed and changed his method of persuasion.
"Really?" Ling'er started. When she heard that Brother Xu Qing would like her even more, she was a little tempted.
"Of course, I don't lie!" The old man from Panquan Road patted his chest.
Ling'er hesitated and looked in the direction of the Yinghuang Province. After some thought, she nodded forcefully.
When the old man from Panquan Road saw this, he heaved a sigh of relief inwardly and thought to himself, 'Lass, Dad cut off all contact with the external world for you. I was just afraid that someone would snitch on my whereabouts. It's impossible for me to let you go to the Yinghuang Province. I'll definitely make you avoid that little bastard from now on!
Father has exhausted his heart for you. In the future, you will know that all of this is for your own good.'
'There's also that little bastard. In the future, wherever you are, I definitely won't go. I don't believe that that little bastard can still come to the county capital.'
'Hmph, I can't afford to offend him, but I can hide!'
