Chapter 1190 Passing on the Way of the Saint
While Li Ping was communicating with Master Yin, the black-haired youth who had realized the path of the "Primordial Golden Elixir" was showing signs of rapidly declining life force. Eventually, he completely lost the natural breath of life.
But he did not die.
The black-haired youth remained seated, with his physical and spiritual energy running spontaneously.
Majestic and mysterious.
"It's a pity that he couldn't hold on. He completely assimilated with the consciousness of Dongtian and lost himself," Master Yin sighed, his face full of regret.
"His original strength was too weak, and the choice of target was not very appropriate. If he had chosen the smaller Dongtian next to him, there might still have been a chance of survival," Master Yin said.
Li Ping's gaze also remained on the black-haired youth for a long time without leaving.
"What's his name?" Li Ping asked.
"Qu Wentian."
"Good name. But I still have one thing I don't understand," Li Ping's voice echoed in the empty secret room, "Can one really snatch the creation of Dongtian at the Foundation Establishment realm? The disappeared Dongtian was called the Abyssal Wilderness. Although it doesn't look very big from the outside, the scale of the Abyssal Wilderness is almost equivalent to half of the Great Qi Small World..."
"Perhaps this kid has extraordinary talent," Master Yin answered after pondering for a while, unable to come up with a better explanation.
"You have to understand that people are different. Some things that seem impossible to us are just a breeze for others. The path of the 'Primordial Golden Elixir' opened by Qu Wentian, although destined to be walked by only a very small number of people, has given me inspiration," Master Yin said.
Master Yin looked at Li Ping and then his expression became solemn, "You're right. If we want to completely undermine the dominance of the old methods and establish the new ones, our new method must not be a niche, difficult path."
"The reason why the path of the old methods was able to spread like wildfire and eventually replace the old ways, despite the suppression from the ten sects, was because it had almost no threshold. It was accessible to everyone, and that's what the new method should be like."
"I think that Qu Wentian was able to break through the realms based on the foundation laid by me because he snatched the creation of a Dongtian world. In turn, the creation of the world should be the most crucial factor for the 'Primordial Golden Elixir,'" Master Yin said, his speech accelerating and his expression becoming somewhat excited.
"Without external objects, accessible to everyone, the creation of the world...," Master Yin trailed off.
"By integrating these three necessary conditions, we can catch a glimpse of the true ideal scene of the Primordial Golden Elixir!" Master Yin said, waving his hand, and the phantom faces of children appeared in front of them.
"To snatch the creation of the world is not for the sake of creation itself, but to need the evolution of creation. The creation of the world, for ordinary people, is an incomprehensible existence. Only by forcibly seizing it through 'devouring' and incorporating it into oneself can one slowly comprehend it," Master Yin explained.
"But if there is a revered master who can thoroughly and patiently teach his understanding of the creation of the world to others..."
"I see, even a naive child can comprehend it!" Master Yin said with certainty.
Seeing Li Ping's somewhat incredulous expression, he added, "The method of 'Foundation Establishment' may seem complex and unbelievable to outsiders. But for the children I taught from a young age, who have only known this method of cultivation, it is not as difficult to learn. Especially after the first success of 'Foundation Establishment,' it's as if a bottleneck has been broken, and successful practitioners emerge one after another."
"Foundation Establishment is like this, and so is the 'Primordial Golden Elixir.'"
"Furthermore, the new method should be tailored to each individual. It may not necessarily have to pursue perfection by simulating the changes of the world within oneself. After all, the world has large and small elements, and cultivators have varying talents and potentials. Fully realizing one's potential may already be enough..."
"The only thing needed is to find a 'revered master' who is at the pinnacle of understanding the world and is willing to share their understanding with others," Master Yin said.
As Master Yin spoke, he looked at the Emperor Li in front of him.
"Although I am willing to be a teacher for the world, I am unable to..." Li Ping's voice faltered slightly.
"I don't even have enough understanding of the way of the world, so how can I teach others?" Li Ping continued.
"I think, in the entire Great Qi realm, the only one qualified to be this teacher is probably the Divine Teacher of Transmission Method. Will Transmission Method create its own opposition?" Li Ping asked.
"You should think carefully about the path of your 'Primordial Golden Elixir,'" Master Yin responded.
Unable to refute him, Master Yin looked a little resentful and lost in thought.
Li Ping had come in high spirits, but now he left in disappointment.
He left Master Yin where he was and returned alone.
He comforted the Hundred Flowers Daoist, who had hurried here, thinking that the Great Qi realm had been attacked by the Alliance of Ten Thousand Immortals, and was searching for the enemy.
He even rewarded her with some Golden Source Energy as a reward.
As a pure crystallization of cultivation, the Golden Source Energy was a great supplement for the pure energy body of the Hundred Flowers Daoist.
After thanking Li Ping, she solemnly absorbed the Golden Source Energy.
"Huh? The energy you gave me this time..." Before the Hundred Flowers Daoist could finish her sentence, she turned to disbelief and exclaimed, "Why is it so dense?"
"It's even like..."
"The essence of source energy?!" The Hundred Flowers Daoist looked at Li Fan with eyes full of astonishment.
Her crystal body, visibly and rapidly, became more radiant and solid.
The injuries that had accumulated over many years were slowly healed, and even the almost imperceptible connection between her and the fishing pond, which had never disappeared even after being captured by the fishing pond and escaping, seemed to diminish under the cleansing of the Golden Source Energy.
Correspondingly, the Hundred Flowers Daoist looked at the faceless Emperor Li in front of her, and his unfathomable figure slowly imprinted itself in her mind.
Li Ping did not explain anything and left a mysterious silhouette for the Hundred Flowers Daoist to ponder.
"Is he already so close to the realm of true immortality?" The Hundred Flowers Daoist was incredulous, but the overflowing golden source energy in her body seemed to be the best evidence for her speculations.
As a clone, Li Ping's realm naturally had not surpassed his main body.
He still remained at the Nascent Soul realm, and most of his strength came from the fortune of the Great Qi Dynasty, making his own strength very weak.
The reason he was able to produce the golden energy essence that was almost indistinguishable from the essence of source energy was due to a group of special individuals.
Deep beneath the Emperor's throne, in the depths of the earth.
There was no sunlight in this place, but a group of people lived here unaffected.
Apart from their daily activities, their most important task was to pray before the statue of the Emperor.
