How Did Master Endure Without Cracking?

"Good."

Bai Muxu nodded in satisfaction at this.

Just as Bai Muxu was about to tell Li Tianwei how to reap the greatest benefits within the Taixu Sacred Land,

Li Tianwei quietly spoke up.

"Master, when you said one could comprehend Divine Abilities in the Taixu Forbidden Land, did you mean this?"

Having said that, Li Tianwei unhesitatingly revealed the might of the Divine Ability Prison Heaven. In an instant, an aura that sealed off all things and overawed Heaven and Earth emerged around him, pressing straight toward Bai Muxu.

Bai Muxu had been sorting through his thoughts on the Taixu Forbidden Land when he never expected Li Tianwei to suddenly say such a thing. Then he saw Li Tianwei activate the Divine Ability Prison Heaven.

"This... this..."

For a moment, Bai Muxu was nearly speechless. Sensing the power that seemed to reach the heavens and pierce the earth from Li Tianwei, he inexplicably felt a trace of threat within it.

And wasn't this familiar power precisely the aura of the Divine Ability he himself had yet to complete?

The look in Bai Muxu's eyes as he regarded Li Tianwei changed. He dearly wanted to ask Li Tianwei just how he had managed it.

But when he remembered that he was Li Tianwei's master, he suddenly lost the urge. At this moment, he could somewhat understand how his own master had felt back then.

When he had comprehended Dao Intent in those days, hadn't he been exactly like this?

As for his own answer, hadn't it been: Didn't I just casually comprehend it? Now that it had come around to him, weren't Divine Abilities something one could simply comprehend and have?

Bai Muxu deeply suspected that Li Tianwei would answer like that. No, it wasn't suspicion—it was certainty.

At this moment, Bai Muxu truly felt what it meant to inherit one's master's legacy.

Still, he could more or less determine how Li Tianwei had managed to suppress a Nascent Soul with Foundation Establishment Realm cultivation. With a Divine Ability in hand, crossing two realms to fight a Nascent Soul was perfectly normal.

Even I, at Spirit Transformation, can feel the faintest trace of threat from this Divine Ability. Let alone a Nascent Soul.

"Good. Not bad. This is a Divine Ability."

No matter how shaken Bai Muxu was inwardly, his face remained as calm and unruffled as ever.

But only Bai Muxu knew how miserable it was to keep up this act. He truly wanted to go back in time and ask his own master, Master, how did you hold on without cracking back then?!

Unfortunately, there was nothing he could do but bear it alone. At this moment, he understood his master especially well.

As for Li Tianwei, seeing Bai Muxu's calm reaction, he figured Divine Abilities did not seem to be anything particularly rare. After all, Bai Muxu could even give a Foundation Establishment cultivator the chance to comprehend one. Bai Muxu probably had a Divine Ability too!

The two harbored their own thoughts. Yet even though Li Tianwei already possessed a Divine Ability, Bai Muxu still believed it would be better to give him the opportunity in the Taixu Forbidden Land. Having already gained one Divine Ability, if he comprehended another, his chances in the future might surpass Bai Muxu's own.

That way, Bai Muxu could also break through to the Nascent Soul Stage without worry. Even if he had to endlessly evade Evil Demons and the influence of Heaven and Earth while seeking a way to break the deadlock, there would be someone to succeed him.

Thus, Bai Muxu began explaining the Taixu Forbidden Land to Li Tianwei: what he needed to do, what he had to avoid, and how to deal with the various Immortal Souls within.

During the years the Taixu Forbidden Land had been occupied by the Lingxu Sacred Land, a safe route had long since been established.

Li Tianwei listened attentively. In his view, breaking through to Golden Core was merely a matter of whether he wished to do so, while Hundred Intentions had to be achieved before Golden Core for it to be better.

After Bai Muxu's explanation, Li Tianwei gained a general understanding of the Taixu Forbidden Land. Its greatest danger was the disorderly Immortal Souls, which could plunge one into endless peril. At the same time, by comprehending the immortal essence upon the Immortal Souls, one could glimpse the past of immortals—their Dao Intent, Divine Abilities, and perhaps even obtain Immortal Artifacts.

The danger lay in the Immortal Souls' chaos and lack of order. They might suddenly attack you at any moment.

"That is roughly the situation in the Taixu Forbidden Land. As long as you are careful and cautious, and with your Divine Ability, if you follow the route I told you, you will certainly pass through safely and ultimately obtain what you need within."

"But before that, you still need to practice the Extreme Good Lead Hua Scripture I gave you just now."

Bai Muxu earnestly instructed Li Tianwei.

Hearing Bai Muxu speak so solemnly, Li Tianwei nodded deeply.

"Master, I understand."

You understand? Understand my ass. You're clearly thinking about how to run wild in the Taixu Forbidden Land and stir up a hundred kinds of Dao Intent. You even think the locations Bai Muxu gave you are too few and far too conservative.

The system truly could not help but mock Li Tianwei's thoughts.

The only life-saving Heaven and Earth Blessing it had possessed had already been given to Li Tianwei. It was now inside his body, transformed into the Heavenly Eye of Perception. Though some residual power remained, it would be no problem against a few Immortal Souls in the Taixu Forbidden Land—but what about afterward?!

Li Tianwei had blocked the system, so naturally he had no idea what it was thinking.

"Since that is so, cultivate well. When it is time to head to the Taixu Forbidden Land, I will come and take you there."

Bai Muxu gently patted Li Tianwei's shoulder.

"Mm."

With Li Tianwei's response, Bai Muxu quietly departed as well.

As for Li Tianwei, looking at the Extreme Good Lead Hua Scripture in his hand, he could not help anticipating this technique. Though it did not possess a spirit like the Five Intentions Condensing Heaven Art, for Bai Muxu to emphasize it so greatly, it surely had merits of its own.

"It has a 'good' in its name. As expected, Master understands my temperament. I am a person of great goodness—otherwise, why would he give me such a technique?"

Li Tianwei put it away with satisfaction, then hurried back to his cave dwelling, eager to begin cultivating.

Upon returning to the cave dwelling, Li Tianwei looked over the familiar surroundings. He took out the Sacred Soul Banner and planted it into the ground as decoration, then took out the Spirit Light Wheel.

"Book Spirit, I'm going to cultivate. Help me set up an array and watch over the cave dwelling. If anyone comes, notify me."

Li Tianwei immediately gave the Book Spirit within the Spirit Light Wheel an order.

"Yes, Master."

After personally witnessing Li Tianwei's extraordinary strength, the Book Spirit declared that Li Tianwei would henceforth be its only master. As for Heavenly Origin Immortal Venerable? Never heard of him.

Seeing such an obedient Book Spirit, Li Tianwei nodded in satisfaction.

He then sat cross-legged and opened the Extreme Good Lead Hua Scripture.

The moment his eyes fell upon it, Li Tianwei was so choked by its flavor that he was speechless. He even began to suspect that Bai Muxu had given him the wrong technique.

Every page was filled with morality, righteousness, extreme goodness, extreme loyalty, extreme justice, extreme filial piety...

It was practically a hodgepodge of feudal dregs, containing many things Li Tianwei simply could not understand.

Clearly, its values were warped. Seeing it, Li Tianwei only wanted to reply: Why the hell should I? If others were disloyal and harmed you, you had to reform them. If your parents were unkind, you still had to be filial. If the ruler was inhumane, you still had to be loyal.

Li Tianwei was utterly impressed. Anyone with such thoughts who could still create their own technique had clearly wandered onto the wrong path.

"Could Master be testing me, wanting me to have the ability to distinguish things for myself? Isn't that child's play?"

Li Tianwei pondered for a moment, then immediately felt that he understood.
