Chapter 191 You Are a Genius, Then What Is He?

After hearing Yu Tianqi's words, Jiang Qing couldn't say anything to refute for a while.

Because she could feel Yu Tianqi's obsession at this moment, which was so strong that it was almost beyond words.

In fact, obsession is not necessarily a bad thing for cultivators.

Because as long as the obsession can be broken, the cultivator's state of mind can often be sublimated.

Especially for cultivators in the Jindan stage.

After all, the Jindan stage wants to break through the Yuanying stage.

In addition to experiencing the Jindan thunder tribulation, you also have to go through a "heart-searching gate".

The heart-searching gate is different from the thunder tribulation. Whether you can pass it has nothing to do with the cultivator's own cultivation, talent, and Taoism.

It only values ​​the cultivator's character.

This is why many talented geniuses have made rapid progress in their cultivation before the Jindan stage, but after the Jindan stage, they cannot make any progress for decades or even hundreds of years.

The core reason is that their character is not enough.

Dao heart, this is not just talk.

The reason why Bian Shouyi was so favored by Canjian Daoren and Jiang Dongliu was that he not only had outstanding swordsmanship, but also had an extremely firm heart of Tao.

This means that Bian Shouyi has a high probability of breaking through the "heart-searching barrier" and achieving the Nascent Soul stage in the future.

A similar situation is also true for Jiang Dongliu.

After all, firmly believing that he is the best in the world and never wavering from it is not a kind of firm heart of Tao.

In a sense, as long as you have identified a path and firmly believe that this path is right, you will continue to walk unswervingly.

That is a kind of heart of Tao.

This is true for upright cultivators and demonic cultivators.

Therefore, cultivators who can reach the Nascent Soul stage are all people with a firm heart of Tao.

This is also true for Luo Changming, the deputy leader of the Black Lotus Sect at this time.

He is not only a cultivator of the Nascent Soul stage, but also a great master who has entered the realm of Tao.

This shows that even if Luo Changming joined the Black Lotus Sect, he is still on the path he believes is right.

It is precisely because of this that Yu Tianqi really wants to know what Luo Changming is thinking.

Want to know what the right path he firmly believes in is.

And this idea has become an invisible shackle, directly trapping Yu Tianqi.

It is a very terrible thing to have the heart of Tao covered with dust.

Because although it will not change the cultivation, qualifications, and talents of the cultivator, it can completely change a person in a sense.

Yu Tianqi used to be fearless.

But after Luo Changming's incident, Yu Tianqi changed.

He is no longer as high-spirited as before, but like an old man who is about to die.

Jiang Qing looked at him, and after realizing that he could not persuade him, he sighed and said: "Although I still think your current obsession is meaningless, I still respect your choice."

"But you should understand that you who are trapped by obsession are far more than just stopping at the Jindan stage."

"The mountain and sea beasts and mountain and sea cultivators are the result of mutual choice. You used to be recognized by Wuzhiqi, but now you should have been hated by it, right?"

In response, Yu Tianqi used silence.

After hearing this, Mu Xiaoye, who was standing by, finally understood why Yu Tianqi always changed the subject whenever she and Xiao Lu said they wanted to see Yu Tianqi's mountain and sea beasts.

Because he couldn't summon Wuzhiqi at this time.

A master of the Mountain and Sea Division couldn't summon his own mountain and sea beasts.

For a master of the Mountain and Sea Division, this was not much different from having an arm broken.

Not to mention that the one who couldn't be summoned was Wuzhiqi, who had once reached the level of the Sixth Division.

Jiang Qing walked past the silent Yu Tianqi, sat down directly in a place in Ping An Noodle House, and said: "You decide your own affairs, I just give you some suggestions from the perspective of a person who has experienced it."

"As for whether you listen to these suggestions or not, it is not up to me."

"Okay, let's not talk about this, let me try your skills."

"I am curious whether you can make a taste that satisfies me after putting down the stick and picking up the rolling pin."

Hearing this, Yu Tianqi suddenly laughed: "Then please taste it, Sister Qing."

After that, Yu Tianqi began to knead the dough seriously.

That serious look, as if he was not making noodles, but facing a serious battle.

Although Mu Xiaoye has a lively personality, she also understands that the atmosphere between Jiang Qing and Yu Tianqi is a bit strange at this time.

Don't look at her usual disrespect for Jiang Qing, it seems like a younger sister treats her own sister.

But in the end, Jiang Qing is still a Yuanying stage cultivator of Wanye Xianmen.

He is a figure who ranks among the Wanye Xianmen and even the entire Xianmeng.

Once she gets serious, her invisible aura will still make people around her feel a strong sense of oppression.

At this time, Mu Xiaoye felt this sense of oppression, which made her dare not speak carelessly.

That feeling was like returning to her first class when she was a child.

Jiang Qing was the teacher, and she was her student.

For a while, there was no other sound in the entire Ping An Noodle House except the sound of Yu Tianqi kneading noodles.

Just when Mu Xiaoye was oppressed by the invisible aura of the two people and felt a little breathless, a person stepped into the noodle house.

And the moment he appeared, the cold atmosphere in the noodle house instantly eased a lot.

"Uncle Tian, ​​Xiaoye, what are you doing?"

Lu Chen walked into the noodle house and looked at the three people in the noodle house in surprise.

When Mu Xiaoye saw Lu Chen, she ran to him as if she had grabbed a life-saving straw.

In Lu Chen's surprised eyes, Mu Xiaoye pulled him to sit opposite Jiang Qing.

Lu Chen was a little confused about this.

Because she always felt that Mu Xiaoye seemed very nervous at this time.

As for the reason for her nervousness, Lu Chen could not guess for the time being.

But he could sense the strange atmosphere in the noodle shop.

With a little curiosity, Lu Chen's eyes turned into lotus.

The next second, two invisible auras were clearly presented in front of him.

On one side was the green aura around Jiang Qing, and on the other side was the golden aura around Yu Tianqi.

But Yu Tianqi, who was extremely powerful in Lu Chen's eyes, was suppressed by Jiang Qing at this time and could only limit his aura to the one-third acre of land around the chopping board.

Most of the positions in the noodle shop were covered by Jiang Qing's aura.

It seemed that in front of Jiang Qing, Yu Tianqi was just a stubborn stone in the storm.

Apart from barely protecting himself, he was unable to offer any resistance.

‘Is this Xiao Ye’s new protector? ’

Although Lu Chen only saw the imposing scene in the noodle shop, he also learned about Jiang Qing’s strength from the side.

Curiosity killed the cat. Lu Chen couldn’t help but want to observe Jiang Qing carefully, so he looked at Jiang Qing sitting opposite him calmly.

But the next second, Lu Chen felt a fierce green flame rushing towards him.

The scorching fire wave immediately made Lu Chen subconsciously close his eyes and shed a lot of tears.

"Little friend, it is very dangerous to peeping at a Yuanying stage cultivator rashly."

"Although your pupil technique is good, for us who have already achieved the transformation of soul into a baby, your immature soul cannot withstand our soul light."

After hearing Jiang Qing's words, Lu Chen, who had opened his eyes again, said respectfully: "Master Jiang is right, it is the boy Meng Lang."

Although Mu Xiaoye did not know what happened between Lu Chen and Jiang Qing, she still guessed something from their conversation.

So she looked at Jiang Qing without hesitation and said: "Sister Qing, Xiao Lu has no ill intentions, why are you hitting him? You are in the Yuanying stage, and he is just building a foundation. What if you accidentally hurt him?"

"..."

Jiang Qing, who originally wanted to take this opportunity to teach Lu Chen, was silenced by Mu Xiaoye's words on the spot.

No, it was obviously your little boyfriend who was rude and peeped at a Yuanying stage cultivator rashly.

But why do you say it as if I was deliberately looking for trouble?

Young Master, your position is too crooked, isn't it?

Fortunately, Lu Chen hurriedly said: "Xiao Ye, you misunderstood. Master Jiang didn't do anything. It's just that I couldn't bear the power of the soul light of the Nascent Soul Stage."

"It's like an ordinary person looking directly at the sun with his naked eyes. I'm a little ignorant."

"Really?"

Mu Xiaoye looked at Lu Chen suspiciously, as if to say that if you are threatened, just blink your eyes and I will help you!

But in all conscience, what Lu Chen said is really true.

He even thinks that his analogy is very appropriate.

When a cultivator reaches the Nascent Soul Stage, the strength of his soul is indeed similar to the sun compared to that of a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage.

If a cultivator in the Nascent Soul Stage does not need to do anything, the cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage will be injured by those soul lights.

Just now, Lu Chen felt a stinging pain in his eyes because he looked directly at Jiang Qing's soul light.

This was because Jiang Qing restrained himself and Lu Chen did not continue to read stubbornly.

Otherwise, he would not just shed tears, but might even go blind.

After Lu Chen's help, Mu Xiaoye did not pursue the matter anymore.

From this, Jiang Qing also saw the status of Lu Chen in Mu Xiaoye's heart.

Thinking of the information about Lu Chen that he had read, Jiang Qing could not help but ask: "Little friend, have you really entered the Hedao realm?"

Lu Chen nodded.

After getting this answer, Jiang Qing said with emotion: "Young people nowadays are really amazing. Back then, we were already at the level of geniuses even if we entered the Dao-entering Realm during the Foundation Establishment Period, not to mention entering the Dao-entering Realm during the Foundation Establishment Period."

"Your talent is so terrifying that even the young sect master can hardly compare to you."

"But the better the talent, the easier it is to have obsessions. You can't learn from the idiot on the opposite side and take the mistakes made by others on your shoulders, which will cause your own cultivation to stagnate."

"So if you have any problems in the future, don't keep them in your heart."

"Tell others and let them work together to find a solution. It's not shameful."

"Okay, Sister Qing, stop using me as an example. Try my cooking."

Just when Jiang Qing wanted to say something, Yu Tianqi brought three bowls of beef noodles and placed them in front of the three people.

Seeing this scene, Jiang Qing stopped being a teacher.

She looked at the beef noodles in front of her and praised them in a rare way: "Not bad, Xiao Qi, just from the appearance, your beef noodles are no worse than those cooked by some of the older chefs in my school."

Yu Tianqi wiped his palms with his apron and said with a smile: "Of course, after all, I have been studying it for ten years. If it was not good, my noodle shop would have closed down long ago."

Jiang Qing smiled and said: "But it is not enough to just look good. After all, the appearance is the appearance, and the inside is the inside. No matter how good the appearance is, if the inside is already rotten, then everything is just a mirage, a castle in the air."

Some people seem to be talking about face, but they don't seem to be talking about face.

Hearing this, Yu Tianqi smiled bitterly.

He didn't expect that Jiang Qing would still criticize him in a roundabout way even at this point. This is really hard on him.

In fact, Jiang Qing rarely talks so much.

Today, he just met an old acquaintance, so he talked a little more.

And he said it unintentionally, but listened with intention.

After hearing this, Lu Chen didn't know what he thought of. His eyes gradually became hazy, as if he had fallen into some kind of perception.

And this change of his instantly attracted the attention of Yu Tianqi and Jiang Qing.

The two looked at Lu Chen in surprise, and saw that some sword intent began to appear faintly around Lu Chen.

Among these sword intents, there is a strange sea of ​​blood with a blood moon in the sky, and a deep and dark boundless dragon abyss.

There is the Tianshan Yaochi where lotus flowers bloom, and there is a desolate and desolate place where all laws are forbidden.

"Sister Qing, Xiao Lu..."

"Shh, this kid is a bit scary. He can get enlightenment just by a few words. Don't disturb him."

Jiang Qing was right. At this moment, Lu Chen really understood a lot after listening to her words to criticize Yu Tianqi.

Before coming to the noodle shop, Lu Chen had never found a way to enter the Dao-transforming realm from the Hedao realm.

But just now, he suddenly felt that he had found the key 'key'.

And this key is the so-called 'external' and 'internal', or a kind of companionship relationship similar to yin and yang.

Sword intent, in the final analysis, is just a concrete manifestation of the cultivator's Tao.

The effect of sword intent, the power of sword intent, in the final analysis, all depend on the cultivator's own understanding of Tao and the cultivator's own cultivation.

The sword intent of the Hedao realm can allow Lu Chen to cross the level and defeat the Jindan stage cultivator.

But it cannot let him defeat the Yuanying stage.

Even if that Yuanying stage has not even stepped into the Dao realm, it is the same.

Therefore, in a sense, the sword intent is external, while the cultivator himself is internal.

Lu Chen had always thought that something like sword intent should be able to break through naturally as long as he could comprehend a certain realm.

But after Jiang Qing's words just now, Lu Chen suddenly realized that things might not be so simple.

If the cultivator is compared to a fighter, then the sword intent is the engine of the fighter.

At present, it is not the engine that limits the power of this fighter, but the fighter itself.

The reason why he can't continue to improve the sword intent of the Hedao realm is because his cultivation, his body, and his soul can no longer withstand the higher level of sword intent.

When a wooden barrel is full of water, if you want to put more water, you must first find a way to make the wooden barrel bigger.

Carrying the sword intent of the Hedao realm of the foundation-building period is already the limit of the foundation-building period.

The Dao-transforming realm is just that he, who is in the foundation-building period... can't grasp it.

Therefore, he must find a way to improve his cultivation and soul strength as much as possible.

Only in this way can he control higher levels of power.

[You have experienced a special epiphany and understood the key to entering the Dao Transformation Realm...]

[The minimum conditions for the Dao Transformation Realm: the soul reaches the ‘real world’, the cultivation reaches the Jindan stage, and at least one sword intent of the Dao He realm is comprehended]

The soul realm is something that Lu Chen only understood after he reached the foundation building stage.

Virtual realm, real realm, Nascent Soul, Yuanshen...

This is the realm of the soul.

At present, Lu Chen is only a virtual soul, which means that he can slightly display some soul means, but the strength is not high and it will break at the touch.

Before, he was too obsessed with the skill level and ignored his own cultivation level.

And for now, this problem is only he will encounter.

After all, it is difficult for most cultivators to reach the Dao He realm before the Jindan stage, let alone impact the Dao Transformation.

Therefore, the problem faced by most cultivators is exactly the opposite of Lu Chen.

They are a big enough barrel, but there is not enough water to fill it.

This is also the reason why Qingyun Sect’s headmaster Gu Liqing could not solve Lu Chen’s doubts.

After all, he never thought that it was the cultivation and soul that restricted Lu Chen.

You know, before Lu Chen, no one had ever tried to reach the Dao Transformation Realm during the Foundation Establishment Stage.

"It seems like you have learned a lot?"

Just as Lu Chen had just finished his epiphany, a voice came from across from him.

He raised his head and saw Jiang Qing, who was looking at him with a half-smile.

After thinking for a moment, Lu Chen said respectfully: "Thank you for your guidance, I have benefited a lot."

"Don't, this is because of your amazing understanding, it has nothing to do with me."

"I said that to warn Xiao Qizi, who knew that you would actually have some insights."

"Old, old, young people nowadays are really different, I'm afraid you will catch up with us old guys in no time."

As he said that, Jiang Qing, who had already picked up the chopsticks, suddenly looked at Yu Tianqi and said abruptly: "See, Xiao Qizi, if you keep trapping yourself in the same place, let alone our peers, even these young people will soon catch up with you."

"So how can you have the mood to open a noodle shop at your age? Is this what you should do?"

After Jiang Qing's repeated scolding, Yu Tianqi was a little bit unable to hold back.

"Sister Qing, you just said that others are others and I am myself. Xiao Lu has good comprehension and high aptitude, so he can improve his cultivation quickly. What does this have to do with me?"

"Huh? Do you mean I was wrong?"

Looking at Jiang Qing who put down his chopsticks and prepared to fight with him, Yu Tianqi shrank his head instantly.

"No, sister, you misunderstood me. That's not what I meant."

"Hmph, that's good."

Although he was a strong old man of nearly two meters, Yu Tianqi was easily controlled by Jiang Qing, who was only 1.7 meters tall.

The world of immortal cultivation... is so hierarchical!

Although Yu Tianqi wanted to say something like "Thirty years in the east, thirty years in the west, don't bully the old and poor."

But given his current situation, let alone thirty years, even if he was given another three hundred years, he couldn't break through the Nascent Soul!

Dare to mess with me? Sister Qing, you kicked cotton!

Seeing Yu Tianqi being defeated again, he could only stay where he was and not say anything.

Lu Chen and Mu Xiaoye on the side were both happy.

Until now, they couldn't see that the reason why Jiang Qing had been targeting Yu Tianqi was essentially just because he hated him for not being able to make it. There was no malice.

There was no need for the two younger generations to interfere in the affairs of their elders. Just eat melons and be done with it!

"Hmm? Aunt Qing, why are you here too? It turns out that you are the one sent by the Wanye Immortal Sect to be the protector of the Phoenix Tribulation cultivators this time. Why didn't the family tell me?"

Jiang Dongliu brought Bian Shouyi to Ping'an Noodle House and saw Jiang Qing sitting inside at a glance. He was very surprised.

When Jiang Dongliu appeared, Jiang Qing didn't even eat the noodles and disappeared instantly.

When he appeared again, he was already next to Jiang Dongliu and grabbed his ear with one hand.

"It hurts, it hurts, Aunt Qing, what are you doing!"

"What? You kid actually have the guts to ask me what I'm doing!"

"Our Jiang family is a long-lived family of the Wanye Immortal Sect, but you kid actually went to the Qingdao Palace to seek the truth. What do you want to do? You're forgetting your roots, right!"

"I was in seclusion before, so I didn't have time to punish you. Now you come to me, I must teach you a lesson on behalf of your mother!"

"No, give me some face, Aunt Qing, there are so many outsiders here, let's talk about it when we get back, let's talk about it when we get back."

Perhaps because he didn't want to let the family scandal be exposed, Jiang Qing snorted coldly, glared at Jiang Dongliu, and went back to eat noodles.

But as soon as she sat down, she said unhappily: "Tell me, what are you doing here, don't tell me you are here to eat noodles."

"Aunt Qing, it's a misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding. I just heard from people in No. 1 Middle School that Junior Lu is here, so I brought Junior Bian here. If I..."

"If what, if you knew I was here, you wouldn't come, right?"

"I, I didn't mean that..."

Jiang Dongliu scratched his cheek awkwardly, obviously because Jiang Qing had exposed his true feelings.

"Hmph, you'd better not mean that. If you have anything to say, say it quickly, and then get out of here. I'm angry when I see you."

Jiang Dongliu nodded hurriedly, acting so well-behaved.

Then he looked at Lu Chen and asked, "Junior Lu, are you free now?"

Lu Chen was stunned, and then subconsciously said, "Senior Jiang, is there anything I can do? I do have some free time right now."

"That's great!"

Jiang Dongliu clapped his hands, straightened his collar that had just been twisted by Jiang Qing, and returned to his former posture as the top prodigy in Qingzhou.

"It's like this. You, me, and Junior Bian are all sword cultivators. I want to learn from you and let Junior Bian watch from the side. Maybe he can learn something from this."

"Besides, I am very interested in Junior Lu's sword intent in the Hedao realm. I wonder if I can learn from you?"

"Heh, learn from you? Xiaodong, you really don't know the difference between big and small. Don't think that you can look down on your peers just because you are in the Jindan stage. Be careful and try it. Your Dao heart will be broken."

Jiang Dongliu looked at Jiang Qing and said dissatisfiedly: "Aunt Qing, I am the number one genius in Qinghe Taoist Academy after all. Why do you think so little of me?"

It would be better if he didn't say this. Jiang Qing was even happier when he said it.

Recalling what he said just now, Lu Chen suddenly realized it on the spot.

Jiang Qing put down his chopsticks, wiped his mouth, and said disdainfully: "You are a genius? Then what about the classmate Lu sitting opposite me?"
