Chapter 1353: As Expected of a Master

“I have many disciples so it’s not too bad to have an extra option. Moreover, my method is harsh and may not be suitable for them,” Lu Zhou said.

Qin Renyue, who understood the implication behind Lu Zhou’s words, was overjoyed. He said, “That’s great. I’m honored to be able to help Brother Lu.”

As Qin Renyue spoke, he looked at Mings.h.i.+ Yin. He thought to himself that one day in the future, he would be able to brag to others that he had once helped Supreme Being Mings.h.i.+.

Mings.h.i.+ Yin’s flesh erupted with gooseb.u.mps when he saw the fire of enthusiasm burning in Qin Renyue’s eyes. He said, “Forget about me. I’m still far from having to face my third Birth Trial. I’ll leave this good opportunity to my two senior brothers.”

Qin Renyue looked at Yu Zhenghai and Yu Shangrong before he looked at Little Yuan’er and Conch. He also thought highly of Lu Zhou’s other disciples. After all, they all possessed the karmic fire. However, the karmic fire was far from being comparable to the Great Void Seed. Naturally, he thought the highest of the disciple who possessed the Great Void Seed. In the end, he said with a smile, “There’s no rush. I can afford to wait.”

‘With the Great Void Seed, can your growth be slow?’

At this moment, Lu Zhou asked, “Tell me more about the Sky Hook Ropeway.”

Qin Renyue nodded before he said, “The Sky Hook Ropeway is located at the Soaring Peaks in the southeastern direction. The ropeway is between the two peaks. The environment there isn’t inferior to the locations of the Pillars of Destruction. The Sky Hook Ropeway was left behind by the great Saints from ancient times. It’s said to be used to maintain the balance and is someone like the Pillars of Destruction. After many expeditions there, it eventually became the ultimate place for cultivators to face their third and fourth Birth Trials.”

“You can pa.s.s both the third and fourth Birth Trials there?” Lu Zhou asked.

“Yes,” Qin Renyue said, “The essence of pa.s.sing Birth Trials is the same, after all. As long as the requirements are met, there shouldn’t be a problem. In fact, there are various ways to face the Birth Trials. For example, Fan Zhong used the lightning tribulation to pa.s.s his third Birth Trial. However, that method is really dangerous. He almost lost his Birth Charts at that time.”

“It may be dangerous, but it’s a good method,” Lu Zhou said. He thought the lightning tribulation was more suitable for him. After all, at the critical moment, he could even use the lightning bolts to increase the level of his blue avatar. With the blue avatar, he would not suffer much damage from the lightning tribulation at all. Not only that, but it would be easier for him to pa.s.s his Birth Trial as well.

“Indeed, it’s a good method. However, apart from the difficulty, there are also other factors to consider. After all, one would need to depend on the weather and heaven’s cooperation to summon a lightning tribulation. The only other way to summon a lightning tribulation is through powerful formations or sacred relics. With this, you can see how difficult it is to create an environment where you can summon a lightning tribulation. Fan Zhong was able to use the lightning tribulation to pa.s.s his Birth Trial only because he was lucky. I don’t really recommend the lightning tribulation method to pa.s.s the third Birth Trial. Perhaps, it’s more suitable to be used to pa.s.s the fourth Birth Trials,” Qin Renyue said. He clearly did not think the lightning tribulation was the best method to pa.s.s the third Birth Trial.

Lu Zhou agreed with Qin Renyue. He had once experienced the lightning tribulation when he was at the White Tower Council. It was only due to the 30,000 inscriptions that the lightning tribulation was summoned. He knew it was difficult to summon a lightning tribulation. In any case, he could think about his fourth Birth Trial later. After all, he still had to pa.s.s his third Birth Trial.

“How do we endure the environment of the Sky Hook Ropeway?” Lu Zhou asked.

Upon hearing this question, Qin Renyue’s admiration for Lu Zhou grew. A good master would help his disciples to resolve their doubts and problems, on top of educating them. With Lu Zhou’s status, it was rather embarra.s.sing to ask this question so directly, but Lu Zhou acted shamelessly for the sake of his disciples.

Qin Renyue said, “The Soaring Peaks are very tall so the vitality energy there is thin. When you’re up there, you can only use about one-third of your cultivation base. All sorts of formations are carved on the ropeway. These formations respond differently to different individuals. For example, the formations respond to your fears.”

At this moment, Yuan Lang, one of the 49 swordsmen, chimed in, “We, the 49 swordsmen, have gone to that place before. For me, I’m incredibly afraid of the cold. So when I was there, the formation manipulated the environment and made it freezing cold.”

Everyone’s interest was piqued upon hearing this.

“So you’re saying the formations on the Sky Hook Ropeway can see into people’s hearts?” Mings.h.i.+ Yin asked.

“Yes,” Qin Renyue said confidently, “Although it sounds unbelievable, when you experience it, you’ll have no choice but to believe it.”

“The 49 swordsmen haven’t even pa.s.sed their second Birth Trials yet, but they went to a place that’s used for pa.s.sing third Birth Trials?” Mings.h.i.+ Yin asked, curiously.

Yuan Lang laughed before he replied, “We only went there for training. Pa.s.sing the third Birth Trials requires one to walk from one end of the ropeway to the other. We only went a quarter of the way. As long as you don’t pa.s.s that point, there’s no real danger.”

Indeed, the Sky Hook Ropeway sounded like an ideal training place. Although its environment was harsh, one was able to control the danger within reason through the distance one traveled. Hence, it was safe enough not to threaten one’s life, but it was dangerous enough to help one improve one’s strength. It was like the Nine Twists Illusory Formation that Lu Tiantong left behind.

“To travel the entire length of the ropeway, one must possess a rare and valuable quality. It’s similar to how the Pillars of Destruction acknowledge individuals with certain criteria. Based on my own experience there, that specific quality is what will help one the most to overcome one’s inner demons when on the ropeway,” Qin Renyue said.

Yu Zhenghai asked, “I want to try… Is it very dangerous?”

Qin Renyue looked at Yu Zhenghai and replied, “You’ve only pa.s.sed your first Birth Trial so it’ll be even more dangerous for you.”

“Nothing can be obtained without risks,” Yu Zhenghai said.

“You’re very courageous! If you can really pa.s.s your second Birth Trial using the Sky Hook Ropeway, pa.s.sing the third Birth Trials would be easy. However, the risk is really great. I advise you not to do this…” Then, he pointed at Mings.h.i.+ Yin and said, “However, he should do it…”

“Him?” Yu Zhenghai was puzzled.

Mings.h.i.+ Yin. “?”

‘Eldest Senior Brother, what’s with the skeptical expression on your face? There are so many people here. Can you please spare me some of my dignity?’

Qin Renyue only smiled and did not say anything else. Some words should not be said; after all, they could hurt some people’s self-esteem. He could not say that Mings.h.i.+ Yin was different since Mings.h.i.+ Yin had the Great Void Seed, after all.

At this moment, Lu Zhou said, “Your meaning is that Old Forth has the Great Void Seed and has been acknowledged by the Pillar of Destruction in Yu Zhong so he can easily pa.s.s the Sky Hook Ropeway, right?”

Qin Renyue chuckled. “Brother Lu, you really know me well…”

Lu Zhou nodded as he continued to say, “Although Old Fourth is quite good, compared to his two senior brothers, he lacks courage and spirit. I’ll have to trouble you to help my two oldest disciples pa.s.s their third Birth Trials in the future…”

Mings.h.i.+ Yin: (︶︹︺)

Qin Renyue felt a little confused, but he maintained the smile on his face and said, “Of course, of course.”

Yu Zhenghai and Yu Shangrong cupped their fists together at Qin Renyue at the same time and said, “Thank you.”

Upon seeing the strange expression on Mings.h.i.+ Yin’s face, Yu Zhenghai asked, “Old Fourth, do you have any objections?”

Mings.h.i.+ Yin hastily waved his hand and said, “No, no, no. Elder Senior Brother and Second Senior Brother’s talents far surpa.s.s mine. In front of both of you, I’m not worth mentioning.”

Qin Renyue. “…”

‘This future supreme being is really too modest…’

Qin Renyue sighed inwardly as he thought to himself that if Qin Moshang was even half as modest, Qin Moshang would not have had such a tragic outcome.

Lu Zhou said, “Old Fourth, if you want, you can have a try as well. After all, you’ve been acknowledged by the Pillar of Destruction, and this will help your cultivation to increase by leaps and bounds.”

Mings.h.i.+ Yin was overjoyed when he heard these words. “Yes, master!”

Qin Renyue said with a smile, “I believe Junior Nephew Mings.h.i.+ will be the first to cross the Sky Hook Ropeway.”

The Great Void Seed aside, Qin Renyue did not forget Mings.h.i.+ Yin had a life heart in his Birth Palace that was just waiting to be activated. Mings.h.i.+ Yin only needed to sprout the eleventh leaf and pa.s.s his Birth Trial. Mings.h.i.+ Yin’s talent and speed in cultivation were evident.

Mings.h.i.+ Yin coughed upon hearing these words before he solemnly said, “Venerable Master Qin, you’re overpraising me. My Eldest Senior Brother and Second Senior Brother will definitely do better than me.”

At this moment, Little Yuan’er suddenly said, “Master, I want to go to!”

Lu Zhou shook his head. “Although your innate talent and apt.i.tude are the best, you’re still far from facing your third Birth Trials. When the time is right, you’ll have your chance.”

Little Yuan’er lifted her hand and counted her fingers as she said, “I already have three Birth Charts… At this rate, I’ll be able to surpa.s.s Eldest Senior Brother and Second Senior Brother in ten years…”

“Didn’t you say you’ll surpa.s.s them in five years previously?” Lu Zhou asked.

Little Yuan’er said sheepishly, “I forgot to consider that my senior brothers will keep improving as well. Master, this time, I’m sure! 10 years! I’ll surpa.s.s them in 10 years!”

Qin Renyue. “…”

‘Is this how they calculate the speed of their cultivation? Why does it sound like it’s easier than buying vegetables from the market? Brother Lu is really friendly. He can even joke around with his disciples…’
