Chapter 744 Qing Chen Imparts the Dharma_2
Hearing this, Qing Chen smiled in surprise.
"This girl... is quite interesting."
His smiling expression made Xuan Qingyi couldn't help but feel that this guy... seemed somewhat dismissive...
She continued,
"I know that as someone born into a sect with Ancient Law cultivation, you also have many inheritances, but in the Era of the Latter White Mist, the Nine Laws reign supreme!"
"There is no longer any pure White Mist Origin in the world; your Ancient Law techniques are unusable now. You must obtain the Nine Laws for your cultivation to continue."
"I formally invite you all to come to Xuan Yizong. When the time comes, I will ask my sect to allow you all to directly become inner disciples!"
Xuan Qingyi made her promise directly.
In her view, these few people before her were all true geniuses.
It would be a pity not to recruit them into her sect.
"Thank you for the kind offer, but there's no need. We already have our own teachers."
Qing Chen smiled slightly, without saying more.
Xuan Qingyi's brow furrowed ever so slightly.
Meanwhile, Wu Shabi and Wu Erbi were now staring at Xuan Qingyi.
"People from Xuan Yizong?"
Wu Shabi said in a deep voice,
"Our Lord Wu Qi has a cooperative relationship with your sect for exploring tombs together. Why would you treat us as enemies, miss?"
Xuan Qingyi turned her head to look at them,
"In cooperation with my sect?"
"It seems Lord Wu Qi has not only used Xuan Yizong but has also taken advantage of you so-called clan members... He's quite the character."
—She had followed Ao Wushuang in escape, but after leaving the black lake, she discovered... she simply couldn't catch up with Ao Wushuang.
The other person was really too fast.
Having no other choice, she gave up.
At the same time, she turned her attention to investigate Wu Qi.
Because this man was too cunning, one could say that this time, Xuan Yizong and the various major tomb-robbing families were all calculated by him.
That was why she had sneaked into Oath Keeping Valley, waiting in secret all this time.
Until now, seeing Qing Chen about to be ambushed, she intervened to save him.
"What? Lord Wu Qi used us? What nonsense are you spouting?!"
Wu Erbi shouted in a cold voice.
Xuan Qingyi said indifferently,
"You still don't understand to this point."
"Lord Wu Qi lured our sect into the great tomb, yet he himself has already escaped. He regards you...as if you are nothing important."
Hearing this, Wu Shabi and the others were momentarily taken aback.
Lord Wu Qi has escaped?
"Impossible, Lord Wu Qi clearly said he would lead us onto a bright path!"
"Lord Wu Qi is the future of the Tomb Guardian Lineage... How could he flee?"
Everyone found it hard to accept!
"I have a suggestion,"
At this time, Qing Chen said with a smile,
"Why not go to a place and wait for him there? Sooner or later, he will come to find you."
Wu Erbi asked, "Which place?"
"Heaven."
As soon as Qing Chen spoke, he was already taking action!
The battle reignited!
...
Not long after.
More than a hundred traitors, including Wu Erbi and the rest, either died or were injured.
"Grandfather Wu Song!"
Wu Xiaokun hurried forward to untie Wu Song and the other clan members.
"Are you alright, Grandfather Wu Song?"
He asked with concern.
Wu Song held a very high status within the Tomb Guardian Lineage and was once the guide for his father.
Wu Song coughed up a mouthful of blood,
"I'm fine..."
"Xiao Kun, they... they are..."
Wu Song looked at Qing Chen and the others in puzzlement.
"Grandfather, they are the people our ancestors...have been waiting for all this time!"
Wu Xiaokun immediately gave a brief explanation of everything that had happened.
Hearing this, Wu Song was utterly shocked. He looked at Qing Chen and bowed deeply,
"Our clan has waited untold ages and finally, we have met the one meant to fulfill the oath... This is truly wonderful! Henceforth, you are the Master of the Tomb Guardians!"
"I pay my respects to the Master!"
Seeing this, the others also bowed down one after another.
Upon seeing this, Qing Chen stepped forward, saying,
"Old sir, there's no need for such formalities! Please, get up!"
However, Wu Song shook his head,
"Please promise that the Shoumuren Clan... may follow at your side!"
"Countless aeons ago, when calamity struck and the common folk suffered, the Tomb Guardians... were but a spark of life protected by you..."
"All we wish is to follow by your side!"
He was resolute to the extreme!
Wu Song held a very high position within the clan and was the eldest, so he knew many of the ancient clan teachings and legends.
The Oath Seed was not just a testament to the oath their clan had made.
Furthermore, it was connected to the supreme protectors of the Ancestral Realm from ages past...
Only upon their return would the Oath Seed respond.
Even at this moment, despite Qing Chen's youth and his cultivation level being a thousand li away from the legendary figures who shook the heavens and the earth, he understood that the Oath Seed could not be mistaken.
This person... is related to the powerful beings who once sacrificed themselves for the Ancestral Realm!
Tomb Guardians are descendants of the survivors from The Era of the Ancient White Mist.
The ancestral teachings state that when the oath-takers appear, the Tomb Guardians must follow them and spur them on!
The ancestral teachings cannot be violated.
Upon hearing this, Qing Chen too felt a stirring in his heart.
The lights and shadows of The Era of the Ancient White Mist have long withered away in the river of time.
Yet, in the Era of the Latter White Mist, there are still descendants of the ancient survivors waiting.
They are like sparks that have never been extinguished through the endless ages.
"Good."
Qing Chen couldn't help but nod and declare,
"From this day forth, the Tomb Guardians... may follow me and once again battle the heavens!"
He did not refuse again.
Upon hearing this, everyone was extremely delighted!
"Greetings, Master!"
"Greetings, Master!"
"Greetings, Master!"
The Tomb Guardian Lineage called out in unison.
And next to them, Xuan Qingyi watched this scene, her beautiful eyes filled with utter shock!
The Tomb Guardian Lineage, actually taking a monk as their master?
Who is this monk... What is his origin?
"Master... what should we do now?"
Wu Song asked.
Qing Chen said,
"From today onwards, there is no need for you all to continue guarding the tombs."
"The Tomb Guardian Lineage... may be renamed as the Oathguard Clan!"
"What you need to do is... cultivate in peace and wait for the opportunity to fight!"
Cultivate in peace and wait for the opportunity to fight.
Hearing this, everyone couldn't help but nod in agreement.
"Big Black Dog,"
Qing Chen turned his head, looked at Big Black Dog, and asked,
"Do you know of the so-called Nine Laws?"
The Tomb Guardian Lineage, after the passage of countless ages, only had the Third Realm Law remaining.
The Four Realms Law resided within the hands of the Southern Domain Main Sect in the Martial Desolate.
Qing Chen wanted to give them some resources to help the Oathguard Clan grow faster.
Big Black Dog shook its head and said,
"The Nine Laws were created by 'The End of Myriad Paths'; even this Emperor is not privy to them... However, you might be able to give them another cultivation method!"
"This method should be comparable to the Nine Laws."
Upon hearing this, Qing Chen couldn't help but become curious,
"What method?"
Big Black Dog said,
"Woof, have you forgotten what the master taught you... 'Gymnastics.'"
"Do a set every morning and evening, and no matter how much Origin of the Grey Mist you absorb, it can all be refined away!"
Realizing this, Qing Chen suddenly understood!
So... the Calisthenics Technique his master had them practice every day actually had such a marvelous use?
"Master... it turns out you had prepared everything long ago!"
He couldn't help but be moved by admiration; his master truly was formidable, for foreseeing such a day would come even in the Yin Realm, which was why he taught them 'Gymnastics'...
"Watch carefully, I shall teach you a method!"
"This method can rival the Nine Laws!"
Qing Chen immediately turned to Wu Song and the others, and began to speak.
Hearing this, Wu Song and the others were shocked.
A method that could rival the Nine Laws?
One must know that the Nine Laws were created by the one who suppressed the great calamity of The Era of the Ancient White Mist and ushered in the Era of the Latter White Mist.
Today, they have become a top-secret treasure of immense value.
But now, their master... was actually going to impart a method comparable to it.
Everyone was excited.
Immediately, Qing Chen raised his hand and made the first movement!
It was a warm-up exercise!
At that moment, everyone felt as if the Primordial Qi between heaven and earth was crazily converging towards Qing Chen.
He was like a bottomless pit!
And Xuan Qingyi, seeing this scene, her beautiful eyes narrowed, her face filled with astonishment.
This...
What Mystical Method is this?
Unheard of, unseen before!
It was not any of the Nine Laws.
But... it was no weaker than the Nine Laws!
She suddenly understood why Qing Chen had refused her kindness earlier...
He had a legacy in his hands!
Was it possible... she was the fool?
She felt... a bit hurt!
But then, quickly, she turned around.
A method so rare, if she were to spy heedlessly, it might lead to a relentless conflict to the death!
...
Goodnight.
