Chapter 266 The Supreme Transcends Emotions
This chapter is updated by Novelfree.ml
Three days of waiting was not considered long, but if there was nothing else to do except waiting, then it was really a bit too long.
The pavilion had nearly ten rooms, big and small, and every room was spotless. There were even beddings that were neatly folded in each room. It was hard to imagine that this was a deserted island with a single inhabitant. But, indeed, they did not meet anyone else in the two days that they stayed in the pavilion.
Even Mo Yi had disappeared.
Most of the creatures going in and out of the pavilion were animals. Some were monkeys which walked upright like humans, some were cranes that carried delicious wild fruits in their beaks for them, there were also little squirrels that ran in circles around Sikong Qianluo and Ye Ruoyi excitedly. They had a spirit that couldn’t be compared to those of their kind on the continent, and often, they seemed to understand human speech.
Xiao Se accepted a wild fruit given to him by a crane and took a bite. "Looks like Mo Yi has domesticated all the animals on this island very well."
"Daoism arts are a mystery, and those who live close to him gain a spiritual influence. At his level of cultivation, he didn’t need to deliberately domesticate these birds and beasts. As long as they stay around him day and night, they will naturally attain spiritual influence." Ye Ruoyi patted the head of a little squirrel that had jumped onto her shoulder.
Lei Wujie glanced at the little squirrel with envy in his eyes. "Miss Ye is very knowledgeable about Daoism arts?"
"I was born with a congenital defect so I could not practice orthodox Daoism arts. I could only learn some secret arts from the State Preceptor thanks to Heaven’s fate. But after listening to the State Preceptor talk about it often, I naturally have some understanding." Ye Ruoyi smiled at Lei Wujie.
Lei Wujie immediately felt a budding love spread through him, and he returned a silly grin. Xiao Se, however, frowned slightly. "Ruoyi, you said a few days ago that Mo Yi and Qi Tianchen have similar qi. Could this Mo Yi have been trained in the Directorate of Astronomy too?"
Ye Ruoyi shook her head. "Before the State Preceptor came to the Directorate of Astronomy, he was the disciple of Qingfeng Daoren, a cultivator from Huanglong Mountain. I once heard him say that Qingfeng Daoren accepted a young disciple in his later years. That disciple was exceptionally gifted and his abilities were above even those of the State Preceptor. Qingfeng Daoren had very high hopes for him and he brought this final disciple to seek out an immortal’s fate three times. This disciple’s growth was also incredibly rapid. Qingfeng Daoren had sixty-nine disciples, and in just three years, this disciple’s cultivation was already ranked second in the sect, just under the State Preceptor. But, at the time, the State Preceptor had already been cultivating Daoism for sixteen years. This disciple had only been cultivating for three years, and he was only nine years old."
"Nine years old?" Lei Wujie was stunned.
"Yes, nine years old. According to how we describe it now, the State Preceptor would have entered the Unfettered Heavenly Realm then. He entered the Heavenly Realm at the age of nine. No one has been able to achieve that realm in the whole of Beili. If he’d continued to stay in Beili, then he would surely have been ranked first in the world. However, he insisted on going out to sea to seek out an immortal’s fate, to leave the mortal world far behind, and become a true immortal person. Qingfeng Daoren couldn’t hold him back, so he accompanied this disciple out to sea to seek out an immortal’s fate. But, he never returned from his trip," Ye Ruoyi continued.
Xiao Se considered this information and said, "He was just a nine-year-old boy. Why was he so persistent in ascending into an immortal?"
"It was said that when the boy became Qingfeng Daoren’s disciple, he asked Qingfeng Daoren a question."
"What question?"
"He asked, if I cultivated Daoism, will I be able to bring my little sister back to life in the future? Qingfeng Daoren’s answer was, I can’t but that doesn’t mean in the future, you can’t."
"So this boy’s purpose for cultivating Daoism and becoming an immortal was to bring his sister back to life?" Xiao Se put down the wild fruit in his hand. "And this boy is now this Mo Yi? Then, what about Qingfeng Daoren?"
"The State Preceptor said that the year Qingfeng Daoren left, he was already a hundred and twelve years old. Except for this final disciple, he had no other concerns in this mortal world. If my guess is correct, after so many years, he has probably already passed on," Ye Ruoyi said.
"What he mentioned about changing a fate decided by Heaven must have been referring to bringing his sister back to life. But, she’s already been dead for so many years. Even her bones would have been scattered to who knows where. How could she be brought back to life?" Lei Wujie frowned.
"Birth, aging, sickness and death are Heavenly Law. Forcibly reversing life and death is the demonic way. This is a great taboo of immortals." Ye Ruoyi suddenly turned around to face everyone and said firmly, "But Xiao Se's injuries must be cured, and we have no other way out. What happens next, you must all listen carefully. This is our only chance tomorrow."
Clouds and fog surrounded the summit of the immortal mountain. The white-clothed Mo Yi stepped between the clouds and water, looking fantastically like an immortal. He looked at the sky with his hands behind his back and laughed softly. "Meimei, we can finally see each other again."
When he bowed to acknowledge his master at the age of six, he was already staunch in his conviction.
Later, he became the most talented disciple of Huanglong Mountain. He went through thousands and tens of thousands of Daoism arts, read countless methods of ensuring longevity, but he had never found a method for resurrection.
Even later, he cultivated himself at the horizon of Heaven and Earth and became an ultimate earth immortal. However, he still saw his master pass away in front of his eyes and was completely helpless. Only then did he understand that his own power was insignificant when compared to the passage of Heavenly Law.
Until he saw the woman in green robes, and he finally understood the most important part of this rebirth method.
Mo Yi smiled slightly, lowered his head, and leaned over to look at this immortal island. His eyes lit up with his smile.
Until he noticed a figure in black running at full speed on the island. He had been running a whole day and night, and had covered almost half of Penglai Island. Mo Yi knew what he was looking for, and what he was looking for could become a great variable in tomorrow’s plan.
But, he could not allow this final variable to appear.
Mo Yi took a flying leap, his long sleeves fluttering, as he rode on the wind. Within a moment, he’d arrived in front of the man in black.
The man in black was naturally Tang Lian, who had been running frantically all over the island looking for any trace of Baili Dongjun. When Mo Yi suddenly appeared in front of him, he was shocked despite himself, but he quickly calmed down and said respectfully, "Mister Mo Yi."
"Although an ant, still a little irksome." Mo Yi's eyes no longer held that gentle and warm smile he had in the last few days. Right now, his tone was icy and arrogant.
When they said the Supreme transcended emotions, this was the true appearance of an immortal.
From the moment he appeared, Tang Lian had remained absolutely vigilant. When he heard Mo Yi's words, he immediately exerted all the qi in his body and did not hesitate in the slightest.
Mo Yi took a step forward.
Tang Lian immediately struck with his palm. His internal strength, Encompass Heaven, and his fist techniques, Harness the Sea. There was no hesitation at all and he used all of his power in the first strike. The momentum was like a tidal wave surging forth!
Mo Yi's expression remained unmoved, and he shook his long sleeves gently.
Tang Lian felt an internal strength that was far stronger than his own fist by several times. His power was instantly broken and his whole person flew backwards.
This was the Spirit Wandering Profound Realm, the power of an earth immortal in the human world. He was already the third-ranked young martial expert on the Fine Jade List and had entered the Unrestrained Earthly Realm that few people of his generation could attain. But, in front of Mo Yi, he did not even have the slightest chance of fighting back.
Mo Yi gathered his long sleeves again.
"This time, you will die."
