Chapter 54 A Deep Bond Between Siblings: Fang Qiang's Bold Guess
The "Dragon Subduing in the Yellow Springs" painting and the Nine-Aperture Golden Elixir were originally found by Bai Haichan in the ancient tomb of Huangquan Mountain. The "Dragon Subduing in the Yellow Springs" painting, in particular, is said to be a magical treasure left behind by the first great emperor of the demonic path, the Great Emperor Huangquan, and is extremely powerful.
However, treasures are not for those who are destined to possess them, but for those who possess virtue.
In the cultivation world, this "virtue" doesn't refer to moral character, but rather to "martial virtue," which is essentially the strength of a martial artist.
To compete for treasures, one needs not only sufficient strength but also the capacity to bear the consequences.
What is cause and effect?
It's like someone sees an apple on a tree, and then he picks the apple from the tree. While he's picking the apple, a poisonous snake that's coiled up in the tree bites him hard and kills him.
Therefore, the person's "seeing the apple and thinking of it" is the cause, and "being poisoned by a snake" is the effect. This is cause and effect, and it is in accordance with the way of Heaven.
Bai Haichan obtained the "Dragon Subduing in the Yellow Springs" painting and the Nine-Aperture Golden Elixir, but he let it slip, which was the "cause." The leak of the information led to many people hunting him down, and he eventually died, which was the "effect."
If someone covets the Yellow Springs Map and is ultimately killed by Bai Haichan, then their desire for it is the "cause," and being killed is the "effect."
The series of changes that follow are all situations resulting from the entanglement of cause and effect.
Of course, everyone is entangled in countless causes and effects; this is just a simple analogy.
Zidian Palace.
After hearing Fang Han recount how he acquired the "Dragon Subduing in the Yellow Springs" painting and the "Nine Aperture Golden Elixir," Fang Qingxue couldn't help but feel a sense of emotion.
I never expected that what I had been searching for so desperately would eventually come to me after all the twists and turns.
It's really good-for-nothing!
Looking at Fang Han, Fang Qingxue spoke softly, "This item is a supreme treasure of the demonic path, called the 'Subduing Dragon in the Yellow Springs Diagram.' Since you found it, it's naturally destined for you. Furthermore, the inkstone contains a top-grade Heavenly-level pill called the 'Nine Aperture Golden Pill.' I must say, Fang Han, your luck is truly remarkable!"
"Um?"
Fang Han was somewhat surprised (perfectly feigning surprise), then delighted, and said, "That's wonderful! Sister Qingxue, you are currently injured, this Heavenly Pill called the Nine Aperture Golden Pill should be helpful for your injuries."
And this damned Yellow Springs Map—since Sister Qingxue says it's a supreme treasure of the demonic path, then let's just assume it is. Please, Sister Qingxue, keep this magic weapon safe for me. I'm merely at the Divine Transformation Realm; I can't possibly handle a supreme treasure of the demonic path right now.”
"You trust me that much, Fang Han? Aren't you afraid I'll embezzle your pills and magic treasures?"
Fang Qingxue smiled.
"Sister Qingxue, what kind of person do you take me for!"
Fang Han said seriously:
'
"These two items, I will place them in the Purple Lightning Palace today, for a hundred, no, ten thousand years! If they are of use to Sister Qingxue, she may use them as she pleases! I, Fang Han, will have no complaints whatsoever. If this is a lie, may I be annihilated, body and soul, and die a horrible death!"
Boom!
A sudden rumble of thunder in the sky seemed to bear witness to his vow.
Seeing this, Fang Qingxue was taken aback, her heart softened for no reason, and she said softly.
"Brother Han, don't be angry. I was just teasing you. Don't take it to heart."
"That's more like it."
Upon hearing this, Fang Han's expression gradually relaxed, and he was secretly delighted.
The simple address of "Brother Han" was proof that Fang Qingxue and he had grown closer.
Then Fang Qingxue continued, "Brother Han, I appreciate your kindness. This 'Dragon Subduing in the Yellow Springs' painting..."
Since you picked up the "Nine Aperture Golden Elixir," it's destined to be with you. Although my sister hasn't had many fortuitous encounters, she still possesses some Heavenly-grade pills. Keep these two items for yourself!
"Since you've already reached the Divine Transformation Realm, this Nine-Aperture Golden Pill can also help you break through to the Divine Power Realm. When you reach the Divine Power Realm and generate magical power, please leave me some Yellow Spring Holy Water; I need it for cultivation."
The Holy Water of the Underworld, also known as the "Water of Oblivion," has the effect of washing away all spiritual imprints and can naturally restrain the power of various magical artifacts. Once a sentient being is tainted by it, it will suffer severe mental damage and memory loss at best, and at worst, it will turn into an idiot.
Long ago, when the Yellow Springs Emperor was crafting the Yellow Springs Diagram, he collected the entire vast and boundless Yellow Springs Sacred River from the Nine Netherworlds and placed it within the diagram to facilitate his disciples' alchemy using water techniques. However, this also resulted in the scarcity of "Water of Oblivion" remaining in the world.
With the Water of Oblivion, once one reaches the seventh level of the Divine Power Realm, the "Golden Core Seed" stage, one can use it to cleanse the spiritual impurities within the Golden Core, saving at least sixty years of arduous work. Therefore, a cup of "Water of Oblivion" can fetch hundreds of millions of White Yang Pills at auction houses.
Fang Qingxue was also preparing for her future path in advance.
"Sister Qingxue, I don't know when I'll reach supernatural powers. Wouldn't it be easier for you to refine the Yellow Springs Diagram directly with your magic power?"
Fang Han was somewhat puzzled.
"This is the principle, Brother Han, please don't push me any further, otherwise, I might really lose my temper!"
Fang Qingxue changed her tone.
"Alright, once I reach the level of supernatural powers, I'll make sure you have plenty of water from the underworld, sister!"
Fang Han patted his chest and said.
"Hehe~ That's all for now. I'll head to the Feathered Heaven Palace first. If you have time, could you please keep an eye on Purple Lightning Peak for me?"
Fang Qingxue smiled.
I haven't felt this happy in so long!
"Okay! Don't worry, Sister Qingxue, I've got it covered."
"Sister Qingxue, how do you refine this Nine-Aperture Golden Elixir?"
"Refining it is easy enough. You can place this pill inside your heart and slowly refine it with the help of your qi and blood. It cannot be refined if swallowed directly... Sister, this seclusion will last at least half a year. I hope that when you emerge from seclusion next time, I will see you break through to the Divine Power Realm!"
Fang Qingxue said earnestly.
"Han will certainly live up to Qingxue's expectations!"
Upon seeing the young lady and "Fang Han" chatting and laughing as they walked out of the Purple Lightning Palace, Fang Qiang's mouth dropped open, almost forming an O-shape.
You know, the young lady is usually indifferent to everyone, but she's so happy in front of this person, it's like the sun rose in the west, it's completely out of the ordinary!
"Fang Qiang, I will be in seclusion in the Lesser Immortal Realm of the Feathered Ascension Sect for the next few months. If there is anything that Zidian Peak cannot handle, just go directly to Fang Han."
Fang Qingxue said, her expression returning to its usual calm.
"Yes, Miss!"
Fang Qiang said respectfully.
"Yes. And Fang Han, even after breaking through to the Divine Power Realm, you must not slack off in your cultivation. I hope that one day you can travel with me."
Immediately afterwards, Fang Qingxue said something cryptic to Fang Han.
"Don't worry, Sister Qingxue, that day will come!"
Fang Han said solemnly.
"Let's hope so!"
After giving Fang Han a deep look with her beautiful eyes, Fang Qingxue lifted him up with the Yin-Yang Tai Chi Thunder Diagram beneath her feet and then drifted away.
Fang Han watched Fang Qingxue ride away on a lightning dragon until her figure disappeared from sight, his heart filled with complex and indescribable emotions.
"Sister Qiang, I'll be bothering you a lot from now on."
Looking at the beautiful woman in the emerald green dress, standing gracefully and extremely pleasing to the eye, Fang Han politely said.
"It's alright. Since the young lady values you so highly, I hope you won't let her down!"
Fang Qiang said.
She also noticed the young lady's different attitude towards this person.
I also heard from the young lady that this person is expected to break through to the Divine Power Realm! How is that possible!
After carefully examining Fang Han from head to toe, he noticed that Fang Han was tall and imposing, with a dashing and spirited air. His appearance was extremely handsome, seemingly due to his cultivation, like a god descended to earth. A faint smile played on his lips, as if he had everything under control.
Although he looks no more than sixteen years old, his broad shoulders give him a very reassuring appearance...
Could it be that the former stable boy will one day become the master of Zidian Peak?
Good heavens!
Thinking of this, Fang Qiang's heart skipped a beat.
