The geniuses all fell silent

Within the Ascension Academy, in its Azure Gold Great Palace, lights blazed brightly.

Qin Ming's body emitted both Dark Light and white light simultaneously!

In an instant, the scene fell silent, and many eyes were fixed on him.

This place is truly "full of distinguished guests," and having extraordinary talent is merely the threshold for entering.

Tonight, renowned disciples from all walks of life have gathered together, their eyes sharp enough to detect something unusual in many of them.

Qin Ming, as a New Life Evolver, already seemed somewhat out of place studying the scriptures of the Immortal Dojo, and now, with Black and White Qi Lingering, he became even more conspicuous.

"The Black and White Light rising up doesn't seem like a bluff!"

Many people were astonished; had he grasped some profound truth?

It should be noted that some "young celebrities" gain nothing, and when faced with scriptures, they treat them like scribbles.

The fact that a New Life Evolver could grasp some of the true meaning is truly embarrassing for many people.

Someone said, "Has he gone astray? Everyone else's is filled with dazzling rosy clouds and Immortal Mist mist, while his Black and White Light is too plain."

Many people nodded, and looking around, they saw Leng Feiyue covered in Pure Yang Spirit Light, Cui Chonghe and others shrouded in five-colored fairy clouds, all displaying extraordinary phenomena.

There is also Cheng Sheng, a "Great God" of the Esoteric Sect, who has already reached the Third Realm Perfection, with surging light and mist, making him quite sacred.

Who are these people? They are all of great importance and have long been famous throughout the Night Mist World.

After comprehending the Immortal Skin, they all seemed to be blessed with Immortal Light.

"Could he have mistaken it for the Heavenly Light Force Technique and started practicing it?" Some people looked at him with suspicion.

However, not many people agreed with him; not everyone thought Qin Ming had gone astray in his training.

Even the individuals who were praised frowned deeply, looking towards the young man on the New Life Path, wanting to find out more about him.

Soon, people noticed that the Near-Immortal Seed, the Esoteric Sect God Seed, and others were almost silent, their expressions somewhat serious.

On each path, the most outstanding disciples gained insights and felt they had benefited greatly, without going astray.

But they also clearly remembered that the exercises on the Immortal Skin were all drawn with Black and White lines.

Therefore, they all looked quite serious after seeing Qin Ming's condition.

Chu Pianran spoke up, "This scripture will allow different people to see different 'scenes,' and those with exceptional talent will all gain something of their own."

Immediately, many people breathed a sigh of relief.

After all, it's quite special that a young man on the New Life Path has mastered the Black and White Light. If he were to dominate the field, it would truly be Inverted Heavenly Dipper.

"I knew it. There would definitely be problems New Life Evolver practiced the Cultivation Method on the Immortal Skin." Someone smiled.

Some people echoed this and nodded in agreement.

However, Chu Pianran spoke again, causing their expressions to freeze.

"The Cultivation Method recorded on the Immortal Skin was originally called the <Black White Scripture>."

Immediately, all the Immortal Seed and God Seed showed expressions of surprise, their eyes deep as they pondered.

The others were even more astonished. Could it be that the Dharma comprehended by the young man on the New Life Path best aligns with the original meaning of the scriptures?

Sun Jingxiao, the Immortal Seed of the Pure Land, found it hard to believe, thinking it absurd. That boy wasn't even on this path, how could he have mastered it?

At first, he scoffed, thinking the other party was being delusional, like a brute trying to dabble in literature and compete with others in talent.

However, the current situation has taught him a lesson.

If Qin Ming were a prodigy on the Immortal Path, Sun Jingxiao would be very Qi Ingestion, but the other party had actually achieved extraordinary success by "exchanging ideas" with them across different fields.

Sun Jingxiao was almost petrified, finding it utterly absurd.

It should be noted that he had been suffering from this arduous practice for a long time without any progress. Only at the very last moment did a rosy glow appear on his skin, almost resulting in nothing.

At this moment, even some of the Heavenly Prodigy felt ashamed.

Because they gained little, while the young people on the New Life Path seemed to have grasped the "orthodox doctrines."

"He really... succeeded?" The White-Clad Girl Luo Yao, widened her beautiful eyes.

She was truly shocked; she had initially thought he was bragging, but now he had actually achieved it.

"He walked out of Black White Mountain, and sure enough..." In an instant, she filled in a lot of "imagination," feeling that the Black and White Light paired with Black White Mountain was just too "reasonable."

At this moment, all the Immortal Seed and God Seed had no choice but to stare at Qin Ming's Black and White Light, their feelings quite complicated.

Even someone as confident as Cui Chonghe couldn't help but frown at this moment; this situation was beyond his expectations.

He looked ahead with an indifferent expression.

That boy on the New Life Path was just his substitute in the past!

Zhao Shuyu, from Ancient Immortal Dojo, had eyes as sharp as swords. He had even slashed the boy several times; in his eyes, the boy was merely a strongman.

However, the fact that this young man had gleaned some of the true meaning from the extraordinary book of their time left him feeling empty and unable to accept it.

No one knew better than him the true value of this book; even Chu Pianran, who was supposedly the most outstanding person of her generation, was stumped.

"This..." He wondered if he had been born in the wrong era, feeling a sense of temporal distortion. Was a powerful warrior about to rise to prominence?

The extraordinary individuals of Ghost Path were also deeply shaken.

"Why are you staring at me?" Qin Ming was relieved that he had restrained himself and had not let the Black and White Light shine out, only letting it peek out slightly from his body.

"How did you comprehend such a difficult classic?" Chu Pianran asked personally.

Immediately, everyone fell silent, eager to hear his thoughts.

The main issue is that many people are still Qi Ingestion; why should those on the New Life Path be able to understand?

"Is this difficult?" Qin Ming asked with a surprised expression, launching into a "group attack" right off the bat.

Even Leng Feiyue, a descendant of the Path Opening Old Monster, and Cheng Sheng, one of the young standard-bearers of the Esoteric Sect, couldn't keep their composure.

Cui Chonghe remained silent, staring at him intently.

Chu Pianran's eyes held a strange expression, her heart filled with unreadable emotions. She said, "The <Black White Scripture> is very demanding in terms of innate talent, stumping too many people. I've also been blocked from progress."

Qin Ming said, "Is that so? Is it because my talent is too high?"

Suddenly, the room became so quiet you could hear a pin drop. Everyone stared at him with a brooding gaze. He really wasn't modest at all; how could the Immortal Seed and God Seed present possibly bear this?

Qin Ming smiled and said, "Actually, this has nothing to do with talent. You've all been practicing in the wrong direction. I feel this is a Heavenly Light Force Technique."

Could it get any more outrageous? Many people don't believe it!

This guy actually wants to transform the Immortal Book into New Life Method.

Someone spoke up, "I'm advancing on both the Immortal Path and the New Life Path, pushing them forward with the Heavenly Light Force, yet I'm still making no progress."

Qin Ming asked, "Has your Heavenly Light Force reached the level of the Three Imperial Force?"

He almost blurted out that he needed to reach the level of the Four Royals Force, but changed his mind at the crucial moment.

For a moment, many people who wanted to ask for details and seek advice fell silent.

Chu Pianran said, "Legend has it that in ancient times, someone mastered it, and that person was Ancestor of the immortal path. He never practiced the Heavenly Light Force."

"Perhaps all methods are interconnected. He has probably cultivated a special Pure Yang Consciousness Spirit Light, which is already similar to the Supreme Heavenly Light Force." Qin Ming wasn't just talking nonsense.

The other prodigies fell silent.

"Could this really be a scripture left behind by an unparalleled powerhouse among strongmen?" Zhao Shuyu even had this thought.

Otherwise, it simply doesn't make sense.

He didn't believe that a young strongman could comprehend Immortal Method.

Qin Ming ignored them and studied the text again, feeling extremely satisfied. Although it only contained twelve pages of the text, it was enough to rival a top-tier Extraordinary Art.

Moreover, this is clearly going to have a sequel!

A Black White Scripture, with a considerable number of pages, is priceless!

He believed that there would definitely be opportunities to get to know each other later, because Chu Pianran valued this scripture very much, and there would surely be times when they could exchange ideas and discuss the Dao.

Qin Ming stood up, his mood light and carefree, his sleeves fluttering, exuding an ethereal and otherworldly aura, even Beyond-Mundane Disciples.

"Qing Yue, I'll teach you." He transmitted his voice to Li Qingyue.

Let's go somewhere else.

Qin Ming nodded, acknowledging that this place was indeed unsuitable, and then went to find Luo Yao.

He approached and said with a smile, "Bring me the <Eight Sceneries Scripture> in exchange."

The White-Clad Girl came to her senses, feeling conflicted. She really wanted to exchange for the scripture, but she was also afraid of taking responsibility, since it was an important part of the "Immortal Combat Scripture".

She had agreed on a whim, mainly because she felt the other party wouldn't be able to comprehend the magic on the Immortal Skin.

Qin Ming immediately understood the situation and said, "So you were just bragging. You're not qualified to exchange any scriptures at all!"

"Can't you... see through it but not say anything?" She certainly had a thick skin.

Then she whispered, "I'll ask my sister later and tell her she doesn't need to worry. I think she'll definitely be very interested in the Black White Scripture."

Qin Ming turned away, not wanting to Say More.

Li Qingyue approached and said, "It's alright, the Eight Sceneries Scripture, right? I know her older sister; I'll exchange it for you with the Black White Scripture later."

"Good!" Qin Ming indeed attached great importance to the Eight Sceneries Scripture, as it was a Extraordinary Art he cared deeply about on the planned path.

The subsequent exchanges were less eventful, with no more captivating texts like the "Black White Scripture."

In fact, it didn't last long before people started leaving the gathering.

In less than two months, Wu Yaozu had already integrated well into the Night Mist World, where he had pleasant conversations with all parties.

When Qin Ming left, Little Wu was still reluctant to leave.

"Then I'll head back now."

The next day, Qin Ming approached Yu Gensheng and Zhao Ziyuan and told them that he wanted to enter the Heaven Reaching Tower.

There are three tall towers in the Mountain River Academy. During thunderstorms, they can draw in the light and Thunderfire from the Worldly Heavenly Light, which can be used to refine weapons and brew special Great Medicine.

Qin Ming prepared to test his ideas and see if the path to the Second Realm was feasible.

Regardless, he was looking forward to entering a place like the Thunderfire Alchemy Hall, where at least the Heavenly Light would accumulate to a more intense level.

He can use this to hone Extraordinary Art and master them to a high level.

When Yu Gensheng and Zhao Ziyuan heard this, they were both stunned. To try and withstand the Worldly Heavenly Light with a body only at the Early-Second Realm? This kid must be crazy!

Qin Ming patiently explained to them that he was not afraid of the Heavenly Light's erosion and had done so a long time ago.

"It's not spring now, the Summer Thunder is destined to be incredibly violent!"

Both of them were initially opposed.

However, they were eventually persuaded, and Qin Ming stated that he would proceed cautiously and would not act rashly.

On that day, he successfully entered a towering tower.

"During the rainy season, lightning strikes are frequent, so I shouldn't have to wait long." Qin Ming had everything prepared.

That's all for tonight. No matter what I try, I can't escape this late-night update cycle. It's a vicious cycle. I'll try taking melatonin recently and try to adjust during the Chinese New Year holiday.
