To achieve immortality, I cultivate using Qi Luck - Chapter 548: 262: Envoy from the Wu Man – Part 2

Chapter 548: Chapter 262: Envoy from the Wu Man – Part 2

“You also mentioned that there isn’t much celestial spirit qi left in the Storage Spirit Jade, right?”

At this point, the Dao master sneered coldly, ridiculing: “Lu Yuan might think that he has escaped our control and does not need to cultivate the Taiping Dao Book. However, once he consumes all the inheritance from Sun Qingyi, he will know what it means to be in desperate agony from drowning.”

And when a person is drowning, in order to survive, they will even latch onto a single straw.

Based on what you said, you witnessed him offering sacrifices to the Heavenly Pillars, right?

By that time, isn’t the Heavenly Pillar, that can communicate with the celestial spirit qi of Heaven and Earth for his own cultivation, his life-saving straw?

But it is impossible to employ the Heavenly Pillars without cultivating the Taiping Dao Book.

Just wait and see.

It could be as short as eleven or twelve years or as long as fifty or sixty years.

Facing the suffering of drowning, Lu Yuan will not need our encouragement to cultivate the Taiping Dao Book on his own.”

In the past, even Sun Qingyi couldn’t endure such pain, so he sought the method of Ascension and went to Beiming Youdu early.

Lu Yuan just inherited from Sun Qingyi, how could he surpass him?”

At this point, Lin Qingxuan sat calmly, with an air of confidence.

Hearing this, Anqiu True Person’s concerns and worries completely dissipated in his heart.

“Senior Brother’s foresight is admirable, and I am in awe.”

He looked up with admiration, sighing, and then fiercely said, “Then, as Senior Brother said, let Lu Yuan live his carefree life for another decade or two.

Humph!

He thinks he can deceive us with his cunning schemes and seek benefits from our Dao.

Little does he know that he’s merely clever in small ways, and no matter how much he struggles, he can’t escape our net.

He doesn’t want to die early? Fine!

Let him taste the torment of drowning first, then suffer endless pain in the boiling, before heading for death.”

Upon hearing this, Lin Qingxuan nodded slightly, and then reminded his disciple who had already become unbalanced, “Disciple, after going out this time, your heart has become chaotic.

Cultivating the Dao requires a stable state of mind.

Later, go back to your residence and close up for three years, focusing on cultivation, and don’t go out for the time being.”

Even martial arts practitioners need a calm state of mind to control their true pneuma and inner strength.

For their cultivation, the importance of their state of mind is even more critical.

If one’s heart becomes chaotic, it is extremely susceptible to the invasion of demons and the entry into the evil path during cultivation.

Lin Qingxuan didn’t want his disciple to suffer a calamity, so he gave the order to close up and cultivate now.

Anqiu True Person also knew that there was something wrong with his state of mind at this time, so after hearing the order, he immediately replied solemnly, “I shall obey Sect Leader’s command.”

Lin Qingxuan nodded, then waved his hand and said, “Go.”

“Yes.”

Anqiu True Person bowed and then turned to leave, heading towards his dwelling.

At this point, the matter of dealing with Lu Yuan in Dan Ding Path finally came to an end.

Far away, Lu Yuan, who was thousands of miles away, was completely unaware of the conversation between Anqiu True Person and Lin Qingxuan. Even more so, he didn’t know that in their eyes, he was already like someone in their net, doomed to fall in their trap eventually.

Since the other party would fall into their scheme sooner or later, why take the huge risk of looking for trouble now?

Just wait for the proper time.

Therefore, the attack from Dan Ding Path that he originally estimated would not happen within the next decade or two.

As a result, at this time, Lu Yuan was still actively preparing, wanting to ensure that his strength would be a little stronger when Dan Ding Path attacked.

However, as he waited, it was already the fourth year of the Shenwu era, early April.

At this time, Lu Yuan still hasn’t waited for Dan Ding Path’s attack, because according to his estimation, Anqiu True Person should have just returned to Dan Ding Path not long ago.

If they wanted to cause trouble, they should still be preparing at the moment.

But while he didn’t wait for his enemies from the North, he did receive visitors from the Southwest.

…

Inside the Chu Royal Palace.

“Diplomat Li Shou pays his respects to the King of Chu.”

In the hall, an old man with white hair but still a strong figure respectfully saluted Lu Yuan.

Lu Yuan sat at the top, looking down with a calm expression, and after sizing up the person for a while, he suddenly said coldly: “Li Shou, you and your brother wreaked havoc in Xichuan, committing treachery and rebellion. In the end, you were defeated by me, abandoning your army and fleeing in a pitiful and cowardly state.

Now you’re lucky to be alive, yet you dare to appear before me. Do you really think you’ve lived too long?”

Indeed, the white-haired old man in front of him was Li Shou, the former King of Anyang in Xi Shu and the younger brother of the Emperor of Shu, Li Xiong.

It was this man who, at the command of Li Xiong, had previously collaborated with the Poison Sect to assassinate Wuyang Marquis Li Gui.

He was undoubtedly a traitor.

Upon hearing Lu Yuan’s words filled with murderous intent, Li Shou’s heart was somewhat nervous, but he remained as calm as possible, saying, “Your Majesty is free to kill me, but my brother and I believe that we have little grievances with you.”

The earlier battle was merely a part of the world’s great strife.

Moreover, my brother and I opposed the Yue State court, not Your Majesty.

Now that the Yue State has perished, and Your Majesty has changed your title and separated from the Jinling court, do you still cling to past grievances and persist in causing trouble for us?

My brother bears no ill will towards Your Majesty, and this time we come with good intentions. Please calm your anger and listen to the purpose of my visit.”

Li Shou knelt down in the hall and spoke sincerely.

Seeing his posture and hearing his words, Lu Yuan’s coldness dissipated.

In fact, the other party had a point.

There was no real enmity between him and Li Xiong. Their opposition mainly arose from their competition for dominance over the world.
