Senior Sister, Did I Learn It?
When the Silent Daoist learned that he had a chance to be released, he was so eager to become Lu Yang's disciple that Lu Yang was so frightened that he quickly said that it was impossible.
Lu Yang shared his thoughts with the Silent Daoist, who also found Lu Yang's words to be very reasonable.
"Indeed, we've overlooked the importance of publicity. Ordinary people know far too little about cultivation, the Five Great Immortal Sects, and other sects."
The Silent Daoist stroked his beard in thought, "Writing a story related to the Ask Dao Sect is truly a technical task. Please allow me some time to think about it."
"Our Ask Dao Sect has a history of 120,000 years, which can be divided into three stages: the founding of the sect by Heavenly Dao Primordial Daoist, the listing of the sect as Five Great Immortal Sects by the Guiyuan Heavenly Venerable, and the restoration ancestor, the Hanhai Daojun. Each stage has many stories to tell. Just the beginning, the Heavenly Dao Daoist's inquiry into the universe, is enough to tell a lot."
Lu Yang thought to himself that his master was indeed worthy of the title. He could describe the Heavenly Dao's getting lost as a matter of asking the heavens and earth for directions in such a sophisticated way. This skill alone was worth learning for a while.
"Of course, we can't forget about the present, that's the key point. For example, I can't say that I was picked up by the third brother, it has to be changed to that I was born of nature, born according to destiny, holding a short sword at birth with the word 'kill' written on the hilt... cough, I'm just joking, I won't really say that."
The Silent Daoist met his senior sister's icy gaze and instantly gave in. "I will definitely describe it truthfully, without a single lie!"
The Silent Daoist said in a consultative tone, "My dear disciple, could you please release your master first? Regarding the matter of the Ask Dao Sect Seeking Sect slaying demons and upholding righteousness, your eight senior uncles are the parties involved. In order to compile a story, your master will definitely need to ask them about the detailed process so that there will be room for interpretation."
Yun Zhi thought this explanation made sense, so she prepared to let her master leave.
Then Yun Zhi left immediately, and the Silent Daoist, growing anxious, called out from behind, "My dear disciple, you haven't released your master yet!"
Without turning her head, Yun Zhi said, "Meditate in your cave abode for three days, and the barrier will disappear on its own."
Lu Yang thought to himself, "Good heavens, so Master was imprisoned for ten years and didn't meditate for three consecutive days. No wonder Senior Sister was unwilling to release him."
Lu Yang jogged to catch up with his senior sister and said eagerly, "Senior sister, I want to learn Law Technique that can be cast with just my mouth."
Why is that?
"I've found that my feet are useful for dodging and attacking, and my hands are useful for wielding a sword and throwing hidden weapons. The only thing I can't use is my mouth."
"Think about it, I'm locked in a stalemate with the enemy, weapons clashing, neither of us able to gain the upper hand. I suddenly cast Law Technique with my mouth, catching them off guard, and I'm guaranteed to win!"
Yun Zhi couldn't understand what Lu Yang meant by "stalemate with the enemy." Her battles were always overwhelming, but since Lu Yang was willing to learn, she had no reason to stop him.
"I have a technique that, once mastered, allows one to exhale the energy of metal, capable of cutting hair with a single breath. It requires a metal Spirit Root constitution. Your Sword Spirit Root is barely related, but it requires several breaths to accumulate power, and you cannot make any other movements while accumulating power."
Lu Yang shook his head. "It's too limiting. It can be used for surprise attacks, but it's rarely used in direct combat."
"What about the Samadhi True Fire? It gathers power in the abdomen, and when the upper, middle, and lower true fires are released, they cannot be extinguished except by water without roots. However, it is too difficult to learn, and it may take several months to learn. You have never learned the Five Elements Law Technique before. I wonder how talented you are in this area."
Yun Zhi suddenly fell silent. She remembered that the first Five Elements Law Technique Lu Yang learned was Shrinking Earth.
Lu Yang was overjoyed. It was the famous Samadhi True Fire! He would definitely take the opportunity to learn it, or at least give up on the idea if he couldn't.
"I want to learn the Samadhi Fire."
Seeing that Lu Yang had made his choice, Yun Zhi didn't stop him and took Lu Yang to the place where he first started cultivating.
Here, Lu Yang lifted a vat to make tofu and successfully guided qi into his body, which is very memorable.
Yun Zhi spoke calmly, "The so-called Samadhi True Fire refers to the three fires of spirit, essence, and mortal, a classification similar to that of the River Spirit Axe."
"The heart is the sovereign fire, also known as the divine fire, and its name is Upper Fire; the kidneys are the minister fire, also known as the essence fire, and their name is Middle Fire; the bladder, which is the Qi Sea below the navel, is the people's fire, and its name is Lower Fire."
"When using the Samadhi True Fire, pay attention to the three areas of the heart, kidneys, and bladder."
"I've told you before that you need to keep your kidney water full at all times, and that's why. The human body has five elements, and most of the magic Law Technique based on the five elements reside in the five internal organs, so kidney water is extremely important."
"I'll demonstrate it to you, so watch carefully."
Yun Zhi aimed at a large tree, opened her mouth, and spat out a stream of Samadhi True Fire. The tree, as thick as a fist, was instantly reduced to ashes. Lu Yang didn't even have time to react!
This was only because Yun Zhi had reduced the power as much as possible. If she had used her full strength, it was uncertain whether Heaven Gate Peak would have survived.
"Have you learned it?"
Lu Yang hesitated. His senior sister's teaching methods were always mysterious and unpredictable; the key was to rely on his own comprehension. "I'll give it a try," he said.
He created his own "Enlightenment Technique," which allows him to see through the essence of things, and he also wanted to learn the Law Technique taught by his senior sister.
It's time to demonstrate the power of my self-created Cultivation Method!
Lu Yang mobilized his internal Law Power, concentrating it in his heart, kidneys, and bladder, and then suddenly spat out his saliva, which flew three zhang away!
"Samadhi True Fire!" Lu Yang, refusing to believe it, shouted, spitting out saliva three zhang away!
"Pooh!"
"Pooh!"
Lu Yang continued casting spells until he was completely parched from vomiting.
The Samadhi True Fire is indeed difficult to learn.
Seeing how hard Lu Yang was studying, Yun Zhi handed him a gourd. Lu Yang took a sip and found it exceptionally sweet, like fine wine and nectar.
"What kind of water is this? It tastes so sweet!"
"Syrup."
Lu Yang: "..."
Can sugar water not be sweet?
With unwavering perseverance, Lu Yang tried repeatedly, practicing from noon until evening, and finally gradually mastered the knack.
"This time we'll definitely succeed! Samadhi True Fire, spit it out!" Lu Yang mustered all his strength, mobilized all his spiritual power, circulated it Lesser Celestial Circuit his body, and suddenly spat it out. A raging fire spewed from his mouth, scorching the tree, which crackled and popped!
"Success!" Lu Yang smiled. He was indeed talented in learning Law Technique; he had learned Law Technique that would take several months to learn in just one afternoon.
Yun Zhi, who was watching from the side, felt that something was wrong with the flames. She walked forward and, ignoring the high temperature of the flames, pinched a small amount, rubbed it between her fingers, and licked her fingertip with her tongue.
"Sweet?"
Why does fire have a smell?
"Try it again."
Lu Yang, confused, unleashed his fury once more. Yun Zhi took another bite. "Salty?"
"One more time."
Yun Zhi tried it again. "Spicy?"
Yun Zhi experimented repeatedly and discovered that Lu Yang's flames were extremely powerful, but the taste was very peculiar—either sweet, salty, or spicy.
Lu Yang ran over excitedly. "Senior Sister, have I learned it?"
Yun Zhi looked at Lu Yang with a strange expression. "You've learned it, but what you've learned is the Samadhi Fire."
"Samadhi True Fire?"
