Refining the Mountains and Rivers Chapter 1244 – Guidance

Chapter 1244 – Guidance

…

According to the Spring Master’s wishes, while Peachy was recovering these people had to be personally greeted by Qin Yu.

After a meeting full of smiles, Qin Yu felt that his face started to become stiff. While there was some harvest, the mountains of treasures that piled up were all delivered to the peach garden’s storehouse.

The Spring Master smiled at him and said that since these were all gifts of marriage congratulations, they of course would be given to him after they married.

Qin Yu wryly smiled. Who would believe that old man? Just how crafty are you? Would you spit something out after eating it?

And thinking about it again, everyone knew that it was a question whether or not the wedding day would actually come, but even if it did, it would all just be a pretense!

For treasures to flow out of his hands like water and then disappear into the river and never return, this torment was far too difficult!

Fortunately, this situation didn’t last for long. Qin Yu was summoned by the Spring Master and returned to his little courtyard.

“I greet master!”

The Spring Master took a sip of tea and looked at Qin Yu, “These past days, have you been scolding me in your heart?”

Drops of sweat appeared on Qin Yu’s forehead. Did Saints also have the ability to read minds, or was this something that the Spring Master developed himself?

“This disciple is horrified! This disciple would never dare!”

What nonsense. As long as he was never caught publicly, he could never acknowledge it.

No, even if he was caught out in the open, he had to pretend to be crazy or something! He would deny it even if he was beaten to death!

The Spring Master humphed. “If you really marry Peachy, I will immediately give you all those things and even pa.s.s you jurisdiction over the storehouse. You will be able to take whatever you want.”

Qin Yu lowered his head and didn’t speak, silently cursing himself as he knew this was coming eventually.

The Spring Master was silent for a time. He laid down his teacup and slowly said, “The reason I called you over today is to determine your next cultivation path and help you prepare in advance.”

After hearing this, Qin Yu bowed, “Thank you master!”

The Spring Master said, “Less idle talk. You are still in the G.o.d boundary. Summon your G.o.d mark. I will help you correct it to ensure you break through to the Origin G.o.d boundary as soon as possible.”

There was a hint of disgust on his face.

G.o.d boundary. This boundary was far too low. Although Qin Yu wasn’t weak, it was a disgrace to mention it. How could the peach garden’s solemn son-in-law merely be at the G.o.d boundary? At the very least he needed to be at the Origin G.o.d level.

Of course, a more important reason was that only by arriving at the Origin G.o.d boundary could one have the qualifications to seek out the sea. If a person couldn’t even find the sea, how could they set their goal as the Ruler boundary?

If it weren’t for this, the Spring Master actually wouldn’t have wanted to interfere with Qin Yu’s cultivation path. He had gone astray on his own path and trapped himself at the peak of the Saint boundary. The Great Dao in front of him had been broken, and since he could no longer turn back, he was destined to be stuck here for the rest of his life.

Those that went astray on their own path didn’t have the qualifications to instruct someone who set a Ruler as their goal…cough cough, moreover, this matter was too costly. Even for a True Saint, forcibly correcting the flaws in someone’s G.o.d mark wasn’t easy.

If the target wasn’t Qin Yu and this kid wasn’t too important, he wouldn’t have done this. Thus, he wasn’t in a good mood today.

It had to be known that as the dignified Peach Blossom Spring Master, besides for his own daughter, he had never taken the initiative to eat a loss!

Qin Yu thought that ever since he took that mysterious pill, the Spring Master’s personality seemed to have changed, and his image had lost its l.u.s.ter. He was a True Saint, so for better or worse, he should be moderate in his actions and not be so direct. Moreover, it was just a pill. Was he really so confident in its effects?

As Qin Yu cursed inwardly, his thoughts stirred and the G.o.d mark suddenly condensed, floating above his head.

He bowed, “I ask honorable master for guidance!”

In the past, in order to smoothly enter the Path of 10,000 Souls, Qin Yu obtained a method of self-condensing his G.o.d mark from the stone paG.o.da and forcibly condensed his Divine Dao.

Although the process went through many twists and turns, the final result…should be good. Qin Yu successfully entered the G.o.d boundary and nothing bad happened to him afterwards.

But this G.o.d mark wasn’t a product of nature in the end, so there was also a lack of confidence. This was certainly his best chance to dispel those doubts.

The Spring Master was a True Saint who reached the other sh.o.r.e. The height of his vision and the exquisiteness of his methods could not be compared. If there really was a problem with his G.o.d mark, then the Spring Master would certainly be able to help him erase the hidden dangers ahead of time and consolidate his foundation to make a breakthrough to the Origin G.o.d realm.

Time slowly pa.s.sed. Qin Yu waited and waited, waited and waited, but in the end the Spring Master still didn’t say anything. His eyebrows furrowed together and he started to feel a bit worried. Could it be that there was some kind of serious problem?

What nonsense. If it weren’t complex and troublesome, would a solemn True Saint be silent for so long? That d.a.m.ned stone paG.o.da, I knew that it wasn’t reliable! That thing which had come knocking on his door, begging for him to take it as its master, really couldn’t be counted on!

In the dark nothingness, a certain stone paG.o.da sensed Qin Yu’s thoughts and silently had tears streaming down its face. It thought, did you forget who forced me to give out the G.o.d mark self-condensing method?

Moreover, did you not know the level of this G.o.d mark? After that, did you ever ask me? Without any investigation or research, you just labeled me as unreliable. I…feel so bitter!

But at this time, no matter how bitter the stone paG.o.da felt, it could only endure it. The Spring Master was investigating the G.o.d mark and it didn’t want to b.u.mp into him.

But surname Qin, I will remember this! Once there comes a chance for me to rise back up from the ashes, I will make sure to repay this debt a hundred times over! Ahhhh!

There was no sound. There was still no sound.

Qin Yu clenched his teeth. He slowly looked up and saw the deep and profound look on the Spring Master’s face.

The Spring Master’s pupils reflected Qin Yu’s G.o.d mark. Countless complex rule lines intertwined together. There were also thousands of lines that resembled a curtain falling down, s.h.i.+ning and dazzling.

Mm…disregarding all else, just in terms of appearance, this G.o.d mark was extremely good.

However, for a G.o.d mark, its appearance was the most unimportant aspect of all. The key was its function and practical use. Seeing the Spring Master’s expression and how he stared at the mark without saying a single word, Qin Yu’s heart weighed down and he cautiously asked, “Master, is it a serious problem?”

The Spring Master blinked his eyes and looked down. “Your G.o.d mark…how did it come to be?”

Sure enough, there really was a problem. With the Spring Master’s field of vision he instantly discovered something wrong. Stone paG.o.da…consider it finished. Even if there was a problem, destroying it now wouldn’t help anyone.

Qin Yu took a deep breath, “In the past, in order to enter the Path of 10,000 Souls, I had to quickly break into the G.o.d boundary. But the G.o.d mark didn’t condense smoothly and I had no choice but to meddle with it.”

The Spring Master’s eyes moved. “You said that you…condensed this G.o.d mark?”

Qin Yu nodded.

“Moreover, it was hastily done?”

Qin Yu nodded.

“How long?”

Qin Yu blinked his eyes.

The Spring Master was expressionless, “I want to ask you, how long did it take for you to condense this G.o.d mark?”

“…Seven days.”

The Spring Master fell silent.

Qin Yu licked his lips. “Master, no matter what happened, please tell me honestly. I can withstand it.”

Seeing this boy and his expression that said he was unafraid of death, the Spring Master’s lips twitched. He confirmed that Qin Yu really didn’t know and wasn’t intentionally making fun of him. To put it in other words, no matter how crafty this kid was, he wouldn’t do something that was no different from courting death.

In other words, this was all luck!

As an old fellow who had already lived through three samsaras and replacements of Saints, it was appropriate to describe the Spring Master as ‘experienced’.

Self-condensing G.o.d marks was something that had been extremely popular many years ago, so he certainly knew about it. Not only did he know about it, but in order to verify his own methods and attempt to find some inspiration to break through his own limit, he started collecting and studying many different self-condensing G.o.d mark methods.

After careful research, he found that thing used to be at a very high level. It had a slogan of ‘My fate will be decided by me, not by the heavens!’, and this phrase surely caused the blood of countless cultivators to boil over.

But 99% of the people who shouted this sentence in the past had died. It wasn’t that they were killed by others, but that they destroyed themselves.

The risk factor was too high as the success rate was frighteningly low. This sort of thing was basically playing with fire and burning oneself to death. The Spring Master decisively stopped. But, a Saint wasn’t ordinary after all. He studied it for some time, and thus could be considered an expert in self-condensing G.o.d marks.

As a result, when he looked at this mysterious G.o.d mark with its mysterious rule lines that seemed like curtains of stars hanging down from the heavens, he lost focus for some time.

In just seven days, as a novice, and in a hurry, Qin Yu had managed to condense this G.o.d mark. If he wasn’t sure that Qin Yu wouldn’t lie to him, and if he didn’t have the G.o.d mark right in front of him, the Spring Master would have crushed the person who said this to death.

To dare use such stupid words to fool a True Saint, that person was surely tired of living!
