Cultivation System: Stronger with Age Chapter 1057 438: Ten Thousand Laws Shadow Puppet Technique (2)
This handsome true disciple of the Guangqing Immortal Sect displayed an exaggerated look of surprise, "Tsk tsk, something's not right, Senior Sister. I recall that when you went to the pavilion garden earlier, your white daoist robe was perfectly tidy. But now, your clothes seem a bit messy, with quite a few additional creases, and hmm, your hair seems a little disheveled too!"
At this point, Guang Ling'er looked at her senior sister Guang Yu'er with a face full of teasing, "Senior Sister, it was just a cup of tea. How come you and Mr. Lin stayed in the pavilion for so long, and Mr. Lin even deliberately set up a small array to prevent people from eavesdropping and peeping in the garden? Just what happened between you two in those ten or so hours inside!"
The small array for soundproofing and anti-peeping was, of course, a formation Lin Xuankong had casually arranged earlier to prevent others from disturbing Guang Yu'er during her peaceful cultivation when he saw her practicing.
The original intention of Lin Xuankong setting up that array was just to prevent others from disturbing Guang Yu'er, yet now it has been entirely misunderstood by her mischievous junior sister, Guang Ling'er...
Especially when,
When Lin Xuankong looked towards the White-forehead Qilin and Cyan-forehead Qilin, he saw these two little demon kings of the Qilin race also looking at him with strange expressions.
Seeing Lin Xuankong look over, the always blunt Cyan-forehead Qilin even performed a salute, repeatedly saying, "Congratulations to the young master! Congratulations, young master! The Guangqing Immortal Sect and our Luo Water Immortal Sect have long had a good relationship. Otherwise, it would not have been the seniors and master from Guangqing Immortal Sect who came to the Central Divine Dynasty Western Region for rescue earlier! Now, the relationship between the two sects is even closer due to today's events; this is a tremendously great thing, a tremendously great thing indeed!"
A great thing your head!
This guy, here to cause trouble at this time, afraid I could explain myself clearly, right?
If I, Lin Xuankong, wanted to do anything, would I be afraid of others knowing? It's utterly ridiculous, this bunch!
Lin Xuankong was simply speechless!
The newly advanced strongest Immortal Lord Guang Yu'er blushed slightly due to her junior sister's antics and the congratulatory remarks of the Cyan-forehead Qilin, and for a moment, the inexperienced Guang Yu'er didn't even know what to say. After all, the creases on her white daoist robe were indeed hard to explain or rectify!
Luckily, Lin Xuankong had a slightly thicker skin. He gave the Cyan-forehead Qilin a glare, then coughed lightly and said:
"Alright, stop fooling around. Didn't you say the Earth Immortals from the Wan Fa Immortal Sect have arrived to exchange Nine-Striped Bodhi Fruit for an Immortal Artifact!"
Seeing Lin Xuankong bring up matters of Guangfa Immortal Sect, Guang Ling'er then reluctantly withdrew her playful expression, expressing some doubt:
"Actually, our Guangqing Immortal Sect and Guangfa Immortal Sect have never had very harmonious relations. This time, the many Earth Immortals of the Wan Fa Immortal Sect seeking Mr. Lin, without waiting for Mr. Lin to leave the Guangqing Immortal Hall, hurriedly sought him out, which is quite peculiar!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Xuankong couldn't help but look at Guang Yu'er, but saw that the blush on Guang Yu'er's face hadn't fully subsided.
Guang Yu'er then touched her burning face before replying:
"That's very true! Actually, I found it quite strange at first too. Guangfa Immortal Sect and our Guangqing Immortal Sect have never been amicable, primarily due to the contention over Immortal Techniques.
More than two hundred thousand years ago,
The Wan Fa Immortal Sect and our Guangqing Immortal Sect both had two strongest Immortal Lord level experts in charge. Simultaneously, the Guangfa Immortal Sect, like our Guangqing Immortal Sect, collected various Immortal Techniques of the Immortal Realm Human Race. Among them, our Guangqing Immortal Sect was renowned in the Immortal Realm Human Race for the Guangqing Cold Extreme Skill, Guangqing Illusion Technique, and other nine grand Immortal Techniques, revered by countless Earth Immortals of the Immortal Realm Human Race.
At that time, the Wan Fa Immortal Sect similarly possessed quite formidable Immortal Technique inheritances, known for the Ten Thousand Laws Shadow Puppet Technique, Ten Thousand Laws Soul Suppressing Technique, and seven grand Immortal Techniques. Although these techniques required some demon blood sacrifices during cultivation and hence didn't have a very good reputation, and their cultivation path was somewhat skewed, compared to our Guangqing Immortal Sect's righteous and dignified nine grand Immortal Techniques, they were not highly esteemed by many Earth Immortals of the Immortal Realm Human Race!
However, back then, because the Wan Fa Immortal Sect had two immensely powerful strongest Immortal Lords in charge, although their name wasn't very revered, it was still very prosperous, with countless cultivators of the Immortal Realm Human Race joining in, and even in terms of the number of disciples, exceeding our Guangqing Immortal Sect by several folds.
But later, due to too many disciples and excessive killing, the Wan Fa Immortal Sect had several disputes with various demon clans of Boundaryless Mountain and the Four Great Spiritual Beast Clans and further because of the joint scheming of the Four Great Spirit Beasts and the Nine Great Fierce Beast Clans' clan leaders, the Wan Fa Immortal Sect's two strongest Immortal Lords were injured, sparking a war between the Immortal Realm Human Race and the Wan Fa Immortal Sect, which severely weakened the Wan Fa Immortal Sect that was initially on the verge of becoming the foremost great sect of the Immortal Realm Human Race!
Subsequently, the Wan Fa Immortal Sect's two strongest Immortal Lords' failure in crossing the tribulation and their fall in the celestial tribulation caused a significant decline in strength; now they can barely maintain a top-five position.
Moreover, since the acknowledgment of our Guangqing Immortal Sect's nine grand Immortal Techniques as the strongest among the many Immortal Techniques of the Immortal Realm Human Race, the Wan Fa Immortal Sect's reputation has faltered even more, declining year by year!
Nevertheless, the Earth Immortals and disciples of the Wan Fa Immortal Sect have always refused to accept that their seven grand Immortal Techniques aren't as strong as our nine grand Immortal Techniques, repeatedly provoking various disputes with some disciples of our Guangqing Immortal Sect. If it weren't for our Guangqing Immortal Sect's sect leader's unwillingness to incite internal conflicts within the Immortal Realm, perhaps over the years, the tension between Guangqing Immortal Sect and Wan Fa Immortal Sect would have been more than just small frictions and little disputes!"
Having said this, Guang Yu'er exhaled slightly and sighed: "Actually, my master Qiaan Yuan Daoist often says that the strength of Immortal Techniques is largely related to the practitioner. Even the most top-notch Immortal Techniques of the Immortal Realm Human Race, when cast by a strongest Immortal Lord versus an Initial-Grade Earth Immortal, cannot possibly be the same! Moreover, there's a realm distinction in Immortal Technique cultivation, even within the Perfection Realm, there remains variation; for example, the Immortal Lord Feiyun of the Flying Cloud Immortal Sect, repeatedly improved the Flying Cloud Immortal Technique on his own, making the technique ever stronger!
In the eyes of my master Qiaan Yuan Daoist, although the nine grand Immortal Techniques of our Guangqing Immortal Sect are hailed by many Earth Immortals of the Immortal Realm as the strongest nine Immortal Techniques, it's partly because these nine Immortal Techniques indeed stem from potent ancient lineages, but fundamentally, it's because Guangqing Immortal Sect is now ranked as the second greatest Immortal Sect in the Immortal Realm. The designation of the nine grand Immortal Techniques is merely the acclaim and reverence of numerous peers!
As for the disciples of the Wan Fa Immortal Sect, their perennial refusal to accept the notion that their seven grand Immortal Techniques are inferior to the nine grand Immortal Techniques is actually due to their excessive persistence. The strength of Immortal Techniques, why bother about others' opinions!"
Hearing her say this, Lin Xuankong couldn't help but nod slightly.
The strength of Immortal Techniques, in his view, is indeed greatly related to the practitioner. Not to mention himself, who can amplify the power of Immortal Techniques many times over, even the Guangqing Cold Extreme Skill, known as the number one offensive Immortal Technique of the Immortal Realm, when performed by the present Guang Ling'er, the newly advanced strongest Immortal Lord Guang Yu'er, and the veteran Immortal Master Qiaan Yuan Daoist, would surely differ significantly, with great distinctions in power!
As for the notion of the Immortal Realm's nine grand Immortal Techniques and seven grand Immortal Techniques, while reasonable, the true distinctions in the powers of those techniques still depend on each individual practicing these techniques!
Meanwhile, the Cyan-forehead Qilin and White-forehead Qilin, who had been quietly listening to Guang Yu'er speak, had already furrowed their brows deeply.
As younger members of the Qilin race, these two little demon kings know the ins and outs of Wan Fa Immortal Sect's matters all too well. Having not followed Immortal Lord Luoshui, during their time at the Qilin Sacred Mountain, they heard the Elder Clan Leader and those elders mention the matters of Wan Fa Immortal Sect countless times. It can be said that among the countless Immortal Sects of the Immortal Realm Human Race, the demon race is most averse to Wan Fa Immortal Sect, one of the five top Immortal Sects. It is precisely due to the existence of the Wan Fa Immortal Sect that there always remains some gap between the demon race and the Immortal Realm Human Race, never truly letting down their guard to completely reconcile!
