Jiang Qi once offered his magic to the Emperor.

The technique is called the Six-Lifetime Reincarnation Method.

The Emperor was not indifferent to any technique. He accepted the Six-Lifetime Reincarnation Method and continued to delve deeper into it, only to find that the Technique Method was extremely risky.

This technique made him put it aside, until Zhang Xuezhou also offered the "Yang Soul Incarnation Technique," at which point the Emperor realized the opportunity for combination.

The Six-Lifetime Reincarnation Method has extremely high flaws, and very few people can cultivate it successfully. At that time, he did believe that the Six-Lifetime Reincarnation Method was something Jiang Qi had obtained by chance, until he saw Jiang Qi deceive the Zhunti Leader. His extremely quick reaction even confirmed his identity in the Western Sect.

It's not surprising that Zhang Xuezhou Zhang Xuezhou could do such a thing, after all, he has traveled everywhere and is very sociable wherever he goes, and he has even become close with the Buddhist disciples and bodhisattvas of Lingshan.

However, it's impossible for Jiang Qi Jiang Qi have been to the Western Sect; with his demonic body, he would never have been able to leave the Western Sect.

Jiang Qi would never appear in Kunlun; he would either be eaten or subjugated and become a member of the Western Sect.

The fact that the other party is familiar with the Western Sect framework suggests that Jiang Qi may have another identity.

"You've practiced the Six-Lifetime Reincarnation Method? And you even lived a second life?"

The Emperor placed his finger on the center of Jiang Qi's forehead.

If Jiang Qi were to try anything funny, he could simply press down with his finger and blast the extremely long Ba Snake into ashes.

"You have other identities?" the Emperor and Empress asked, equally surprised.

"I hope Your Majesty and Her Majesty will forgive me, Jiang Qi... I used to have another name, Zhu Shiyin!"

Jiang Qi felt terrible, never expecting that practicing the Heart Sutra would expose his secret.

Jiang Qi was respectful and gentle in the Kunlun Sacred Land, but Zhu Shiyin's reputation was not good. He even schemed against Ang Ri of the Kunlun Sacred Land, using him to kill him so that he could fake his death and escape.

Angri was once a young demon king whom Kunlun was focusing on cultivating, and at that time he might have been chosen by the Emperor to be the Holy Son of Kunlun.

"Zhu Shiyin!"

The Emperor frowned.

The Emperor had heard of Zhu Shiyin's name, but he didn't know much about Zhu Shiyin, only that he was an extremely outstanding demon king among the younger generation.

"How many peaches did Zhu Shiyin eat in my Jade Pool Palace?"

The Emperor and Empress frowned as well, and asked another question.

An unproven technique is only worth trying when all other options are exhausted, but if someone succeeds, that's another matter entirely.

The Emperor and Empress were also looking at Jiang Qi, seeking confirmation.

"There should be three," Jiang Qi. "The person I used to be is me, but I'm not the same person I used to be. I don't remember some things very clearly anymore!"

"Oh?"

With the accurate answer given, the Emperor and Empress were now completely certain of Jiang Qi's identity.

Jiang Qi's demonic body is completely different from before, but his memories are still those of the past.

It's normal to forget some things; no one can remember every single detail, big or small. As long as you remember the important things, that's enough.

A blush of joy appeared on her face.

Do you know your crime?

Whether it was killing Ang Ri, triggering the Zhu Jiuyin decree to attack other countries, or Jiang Qi's deception of Kunlun, none of these matters were trivial.

"Jiang Qi is willing to atone for his crimes through meritorious service until his past sins are forgiven. Jiang Qi will also fully cooperate with all of Your Majesty's inquiries!"

Jiang Qi, who had served as a holy son in the Xieluosi River Holy Land, clearly knew exactly how to survive.

No amount of explanation will help; only the value you can bring to the table is real.

The moment the Emperor uttered his question, Jiang Qi had already knelt down and made the most correct choice.

His response made the Emperor stare at him for more than ten seconds before he slowly withdrew his finger.

"You've practiced the Heart Sutra, and your mental power bears the Zhunti. It's one thing to deceive me, Zhunti that old killer Cundi won't hold back!"

The Emperor frowned, then focused his gaze on the psychic radiance emanating from Zhang Xuezhou and Jiang Qi.

If the tricks of Jieyin and Zhunti cannot be deciphered, the Emperor will inevitably have to learn to deceive as well, in order to push the Heart Sutra over the corresponding threshold.

How to deceive the two Western Sect, and how to avoid being manipulated, still requires the Emperor to observe carefully.

Jiang Qi, who was originally used as a reference, is clearly becoming increasingly important, since he has successfully cultivated the Six-Lifetime Reincarnation Method, which is also a case that the Emperor needs to learn from.

"Holy Son, how are you feeling?"

After a long while, the Emperor finally turned his gaze to Zhang Xuezhou, who was shaking his head.

"I feel like I'm doomed!"

Zhang Xuezhou kept shaking his head, the benefits brought by the Nine Treasures Wine rippled through his body, and his cultivation level slowly increased.

His cultivation level is stuck at the Divine Ability Realm, and the Heart Sutra can only be cultivated up to the Divine Ability Realm level.

With the aid of Nine Treasures Wine, the speed of practicing the Heart Sutra is indeed very fast. No amount of chanting or concentration can compare to the spiritual power directly provided by Nine Treasures Wine. The Heart Sutra can combine this power to form a unique spiritual power, and even sense the body's needs to form a mental image.

The psychic manifestation can enhance a cultivator's Technique Method power, whether it forms a unique killing move or simply increases their Technique Method power, it's a matter of personal choice.

Zhang Xuezhou didn't have many options; he only had a handful of methods for exporting his ideas.

Combining his expertise, Zhang Xuezhou focused his mental energy manifestation on deterrence. Whenever his deterrence against opponents was weak, his mental energy manifestation could lend a helping hand.

He didn't have much need for the effects of mental power, since Zhang Xuezhou only wanted to improve his mental strength.

But Zhang Xuezhou didn't expect that the mental power would be drawn to the Sect Master Jieyin, and he was very familiar with that feeling.

It's like Zhang Xuezhou using the Soul-Stirring Beast Control Technique on a strange beast, except that at that moment he was the recipient of the Technique Method, not the caster of Technique Method.

Both the Beast Taming Sect and Zhang Xuezhou Zhang Xuezhou had attempted to use the Soul-Controlling Beast Technique to control people, but both failed. However, the Western Sect succeeded.

This involves using the power of mental cultivation to gradually deepen the control and bondage through scriptures. While granting cultivators special abilities, the control is also gradually strengthened until the conditions for complete control are met.

Forcibly controlling someone is one thing, but actively cultivating and strengthening one's control mindset is quite another.

It's like how it's difficult for a skilled poisoner to kill a cultivator, but if that cultivator takes poison every day, the final outcome will inevitably be death.

The same principle applies to practicing the Heart Sutra. It is difficult for the two patriarchs to directly control people, but as long as one continuously practices the Heart Sutra of the two patriarchs, one will inevitably enter into it.

The rapid advancement of the Nine Treasures Wine cultivation process avoids the influence of many aspects, but for continuous cultivation and upward progress, this scripture requires the permission and assistance of the two leaders to advance.

Zhang Xuezhou could deceive the Sect Master Jieyin once, but he wasn't confident he could deceive him a second or third time.

However, the spiritual power cultivated from the Heart Sutra is indeed quite good. This gathered the spiritual power that Zhang Xuezhou had scattered and found difficult to improve, thus securing a place for himself in his spiritual system.

If he could complete the practice of the Heart Sutra, Zhang Xuezhou felt that by combining the three spiritual powers he had acquired, he might be able to advance the Mental Strengthening Chapter to the level of Chapter Eight, as theoretically deduced by Ren Anran.
