The moment to test innate talent
When Sun Jingxiao, Immortal Seed from the Pure Land, saw Qin Ming, Xiang Yiwu, and the others approaching, a smile appeared on his lips. This was the law of the Immortal Path, and it had no connection with the disciples on the New Life Path.
But he won't Say More, and whoever is left completely bewildered will be embarrassed and lose face.
Books made of Immortal Skin are a rare sight these days; no one would be willing to be so extravagant.
Suddenly, long queues formed for people wanting to get their hands on this book.
Qin Ming waited and waited, not wanting to waste time, thinking that it wouldn't hurt to ponder it when there were fewer people around.
He planned to visit Li Qingyue to catch up with her. Previously, her place was always surrounded by people, but now there were fewer.
"Are you really... that boy from Black White Mountain?" Luo Yao, White-Clad Girl, walked over. Her pretty face, which was a little chubby, had arched eyebrows and bright, sparkling eyes.
Without a doubt, she is usually quite lively and loves to talk.
"Is it really the person I saw back then? I can't believe it!"
Before Qin Ming could say anything, she had already started making all sorts of assumptions in her head.
"Black White Mountain used to be terrifying, and it's still very strange now. Could it be that it has been revived? And a young prodigy has been born there...?"
"What are you muttering about?" Qin Ming asked her.
"Oh? It's nothing, I just feel that life's circumstances are unpredictable," she said earnestly.
At first, in her eyes, he was just a young hunter from a remote area. She never expected that he would change so much and now be able to defeat Second Realm Immortal Seed.
Qin Ming laughed and said, "I remember now, you're that chubby girl who's as far away from me as mountains and seas?"
The White-Clad Girl's face immediately darkened. Who's fat?! She's full of energy and has a slightly chubby face, she's not fat at all.
Normally, everyone calls her a fairy, but in this young man's mouth, she's nothing.
"It really is you! You're so petty, holding a grudge!" She looked at the former hunter boy, who actually remembered what she had said.
"Fatty, what level are you at now?" Qin asked with a smile and a kind expression.
Luo Yao really wanted to beat him up, but considering his strength, she had to give up, as the boomerang had stuck in her own body.
Qin Ming said, "Hmm, you're only at the Early-Second Realm. You still need to work harder. You're not qualified to be evaluated for Immortal Seed until you reach the middle stage. The gap between you and your sister is quite large."
The White-Clad Girl was initially dejected, but then her eyes brightened, and she said, "My sister is like Heavenly Immortal being reincarnated; no one can compare to her."
Qin Ming pursed his lips, not wanting to tease her anymore, and turned to leave.
The White-Clad Girl said, "I admit I misspoke and misjudged you. But the distance between you and my sister is indeed... still very far."
Qin Ming did not refute; the Green-Clad Woman was truly astonishing.
The fact that she was able to snatch the greatest fortune from the new mountain White-Haired Old Beast of Black White Mountain, the Old Weasel, and the former city lord of Red Haze City, Ling Xu, is enough to prove everything.
"What did your sister take away from Black White Mountain?" Qin Ming asked casually.
The White-Clad Girl smiled and naturally wouldn't utter a single word about it.
Qin Ming turned and left, not wanting to waste any more time.
"Hey, don't go, let's talk," Luo Yao called out.
Qin Ming glanced at her and said, "What's there to talk about with you? I still need to study the scriptures."
The White-Clad Girl was furious. This guy really didn't know how to talk; he didn't even try to hide his true feelings. He was both obnoxious and stubborn.
She couldn't help but say, "Those are scriptures from the Immortal Path. What are you, a New Life Evolver, getting involved in?"
Qin Ming stopped and turned around, saying, "Your Immortal Land has the <Immortal Combat Scripture>, right? Have you read it?"
He was very concerned about the "Eight Sceneries Divine Illumination Scripture". Now that he had planned his path, the most missing link was the Thunderfire needed for the Dragon Tiger Pill Combination.
"I've seen it, what's wrong?" Luo Yao asked.
Qin Ming immediately became enthusiastic, his face beaming with smiles, and said, "Fairy Luo, how about we exchange scriptures? I'd like to trade your Immortal Combat Scripture."
Luo Yao's eyes widened. This young man didn't take her seriously. Did he really think she was an innocent fool? He just opened his mouth and thought he could fool people with some legendary scripture!
Qin Ming said, "Don't glare at me. I guarantee you won't lose out. I'll study the scriptures recorded on the Immortal Skin and exchange them with you on an equal footing."
Luo Yao immediately curled her lip and said, "Tch, you're just a young disciple on the New Life Path, trying to comprehend the scriptures of the Immortal Dojo, what are you thinking..."
Qin Ming interrupted her bluntly, saying, "Stop talking nonsense. I'll just ask you one question: if I can figure it out, will you trade?"
Luo Yao's temper flared up as well, and she said, "Change! But can you? Absolutely not!"
Qin Ming looked at her and said, "Wait a minute, don't brag. Can you make that decision? Are you qualified to exchange scriptures with me?"
The White-Clad Girl felt a pain in her chest. Who was talking nonsense? Why was she being questioned instead?
However, after careful consideration, she really didn't dare to reveal the entire "Immortal Combat Scripture).
She said, "The only thing I can exchange is the <Eight Sceneries Scripture>, which belongs to the realm of Extraordinary Art."
Qin Ming was shocked; the so-called Immortal Combat Scripture was indeed a cobbled-together compilation!
"Is the Extraordinary Art you're talking about the <Eight Sceneries Divine Illumination Scripture>?"
"No, the Eight Sceneries Divine Illumination Scripture is already a secret manual; the Eight Sceneries Scripture is Extraordinary Art."
Qin Ming pondered that even if he were given the secret manual, he wouldn't be able to master it yet. At present, he was still at the level of practicing Extraordinary Art, and the <Eight Sceneries Scripture> was enough.
"Alright, I'll extract some passages from the scriptures and exchange them with you on an equal footing," Qin Ming said.
The White-Clad Girl was speechless. Who was this person? Did he really think he was exceptionally gifted and could comprehend any scripture?
Even her sister wouldn't dare to be so confident!
Seeing that he was about to leave again, she remembered her important matter, and stepped forward mysteriously, lowering her voice to ask, "Are you related to the strange things at Black and Black White Mountain?"
"You wanted to talk to me just for this?" Qin Ming turned his back on her and left.
He suddenly realized that the Violet Lightning Beast was approaching stealthily, like a thief.
Moreover, he noticed the small purple hammer hidden in her sleeve. Could it be that she was planning to ambush him and give him a sudden, hard blow?
Qin Ming had personally witnessed how she used this hammer to shatter the Rainbow Vial that Cao Qianqiu had given to Li Qingxu in the Giant Centipede's Divine City.
The purple-haired girl smiled sweetly at him, pretending to be a complete stranger.
Qin Ming grinned. Since the other party wanted to act, then he would act too. They'd see how things went.
At this moment, Li Qingyue walked towards him.
She was dressed in white, her hair was jet black and glossy, and her eyes were bright and clear. As her clothes fluttered, she appeared ethereal and otherworldly, like a fairy.
"You're really popular." She said with a smile, without the aloofness of Near-Immortal, still very approachable, saying whatever came to mind as before.
Qin Ming said, "How could that be? You were surrounded by people just now, I couldn't even squeeze through."
Then, he lowered his voice and said, "You know what? Master Li even wanted to marry you off, mainly because he was worried you'd disappear into the night sky like a kite. But I stopped him."
Li Qingyue was taken aback, turned her head to look at him, and then smiled, a smile that was as warm as a spring breeze.
Qin Ming said, "Let's go, let's work together to decipher that scripture."
"Okay!" Li Qingyue said confidently.
At this point, some people had already used Memory Crystal to copy the scriptures on the Immortal Skin, so there was no need to wait in long lines anymore.
Of course, Chu Pianran only revealed twelve pages; the rest of the text was locked away by mysterious patterns.
Soon after, Qin Ming and Li Qingyue stepped forward, also preparing to copy one.
"Fairy Li, Brother Qin, you can go straight to the main story!" Chu Pianran transmitted her voice, looking at the two of them with new respect.
In fact, famous Immortal Seed and God Seed such as Cui Chonghe, Su Shiyun, and Zhao Yaoting have all received this treatment.
Chu Pianran brought the scriptures not to make things difficult for anyone, but because she genuinely wanted future generations to interpret them.
She herself only studied twelve pages of the text on the Immortal Skin before she truly couldn't understand the rest.
At this moment, some Immortal Seed and God Seed were frowning deeply, because they could not comprehend this classic text, which was too difficult and left them clueless.
Nearby, someone muttered, "The people from New Life Path actually went forward. This isn't their law, it's not their path. Their courage is commendable."
On the contrary, Sun Jingxiao, who was the first to say such a thing, fell silent, because he himself was also completely bewildered and had not yet figured out anything.
Holding the Immortal Skin, Qin Ming was torn between his inner Celestial Person and his desire to resonate with the scriptures and memorize the entire text.
However, he didn't dare to do it.
He knew very well that this was an extraordinary scripture, possibly involving Near-Immortal beings.
He would never forget what he had experienced when he first obtained the scriptures from the Resonance Eight Trigrams Furnace and the scriptures on the golden scales left behind by the Giant Centipede —it was all too terrifying.
His fragmented insights at the time nearly turned his mind into mush.
Qin Ming sighed inwardly. For now, it was best to play it safe and stay within the bounds; he couldn't afford to take risks here.
There's a group of Ancestor in Kunlun City; if someone is watching this place, it would be even more dangerous.
In the end, Qin Ming simply read the scriptures and then closed his eyes to contemplate them.
The Immortal Skin is covered with interwoven runes and will not decay even after thousands of years.
This scripture has no words; instead, it is filled with lifelike little figures, each with densely intertwined Black and White lines within their bodies.
Qin Ming's heart stirred; this style was somewhat similar to the "Life Altering Scripture".
He pondered silently and studied it carefully. The meaning of this scripture was indeed difficult, which made him frown slightly.
The main text consists of twelve pages of scripture, each page containing numerous small figures, each with intricate Black and White lines. If each figure represents a specific energy flow path, the sheer number of these figures stacked together makes it quite challenging for those seeking comprehension.
Qin Ming tried it out, and each image ran smoothly along the Black and White lines without much trouble, going from initial sluggishness to subsequent smoothness.
His Heavenly Light followed its path, as if opening up Night Mist World, with beams of light illuminating his body, like rivers of Fire Spring surging within.
From this perspective, it is indeed similar to the Life Altering Scripture "!
But it is by no means the latter; it has specific laws and methods.
Qin Ming's heart stirred. He knew his own situation. The Heavenly Light Force also contained Consciousness Spirit Light and Divine Wisdom. He tried to activate it alone with Heavenly Light or Divine Wisdom, and sure enough, the difficulty increased dramatically.
He understood; from this perspective, the meaning of this scripture wouldn't be too difficult for him.
After that, every now and then, he would go and look at the authentic Immortal Skin Scripture.
The main problem was that there were too many routes for practicing the exercises, and he was afraid of making mistakes or oversights. He repeatedly checked the routes until he was sure there were no problems.
Many people were speechless. Why should a New Life Evolver you put in so much effort? Theoretically, you shouldn't be able to study the scriptures of Immortal Dojo.
More than two hours had passed, and it was already late at night, but everyone was still studying the scripture.
During this process, only a few people experienced a glimmer of light and gained some understanding.
Among them were Cui Chonghe, Su Shiyun, and Zhao Yaoting.
Li Qingyue also gained something; Mu Qing, she closed her eyes and sat there quietly, utterly sacred.
Everyone seems to grasp different things; at the very least, the radiance they exude varies greatly.
In the end, people gradually stopped, because those who could understand the twelve pages of scripture had already understood them, and those who couldn't understand them were wasting time.
Only Qin Ming continued, and at the very last moment, he even went to look at the main text and compared it with the scriptures.
Some people scoffed, acknowledging Qin Ming's achievements on the New Life Path, perhaps indicating he possessed the talent of Grandmaster Level, but currently, studying scriptures from other paths was simply a waste of time.
"Look at the seeds on the Immortal Path immortality and the God Path. After comprehending a portion of the scriptures, how extraordinary is the light emanating from their bodies! What did Qin Ming comprehend?"
Someone couldn't hold back any longer; their voice was neither too loud nor too soft, because everyone else had stopped, but he was still continuing.
Chu Pianran told the man not to Say More, so as not to disturb the young man in the arena.
With a whoosh, Qin Ming's body suddenly emitted Black and White Light!
For a moment, the entire Giant Palace fell silent; his light was unlike anyone else's.
