Chapter 40: Purgatory of Mountains and Seas
n a single shot!One arrow pierced through the dazzling sword light.Jiang Wang's flaming meteors erupted, but they were still brutally slashed across his waist, drawing a bloody furrow.An arrow flew to...Boom!
The sound of the Stone Gate opening was like a giant mountain moving.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Judging from this momentum, these two stone doors must weigh over ten thousand jin.
"One hundred thousand jin." Zuo Guangshu noticed Jiang Wang's expression and explained, "These two stone gates weigh one hundred thousand jin."
"With such a senior presence here, why do we need such heavy doors" Jiang Wang said with the air of someone trying to please an older friend's relative.
The "Scar Uncle" on the tower remained silent and expressionless.
Left Guangshu, however, was pulling him along. He lowered his head and hurried inside.
Whispered, "Don't say any more!"
"What's wrong" Jiang Wang stumbled, nearly falling over. He transmitted back with a huff of displeasure, "Brother, isn't this me making connections with the strong individuals in your family Just so that no one says that your elder brother Jiang is unmannerly. I know the customs of Chu State very well! I've read books! You've heard of 'Shi Dao Zao Hai', right Such a thick, long book!"
Zuo Guangshu walked in with a face full of shame.
Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!
The buildings after Shimen weren't as complicated as I imagined.
After the two people entered the stone gate, the first thing that caught their eyes was a long corridor paved with stone bricks.
On the stone brick was etched an array that Jiang Wang couldn't understand.
But between the lines of the pattern, a sense of beauty can be seen.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
The people of Chu were obsessed with beauty, it was in their bones. Even their armor patterns were elaborate and beautiful.
On either side of the corridor, many rooms were symmetrically sealed with translucent crystal gates. What lay within remained a mystery.
The stone gate behind slowly closed.
Zuo Guangshu explained: "This isn't a matter of etiquette or disrespect. The key issue is that Scar Uncle isn't here to preside over the event, he's being detained here as punishment... By fawning over him like this, aren't you just insulting him directly"
It was like this...
Praising someone is just like cursing them to spend more years in jail.
No wonder "Scar Uncle" didn't even give him an expression.
Jiang Wang already knew he had said the wrong thing, but feeling scorned by his younger brother, he still felt uncomfortable. He muttered, "You could have said that earlier."
Zuo Guangshu was choked by this, and finally didn't say the words in his heart, "I didn't expect you to talk so much." He quickly got to the point and said, "Let's talk about the Shan Hai Jing. The workman must first sharpen his tools if he wants to do his work well. We must first adapt to the environment of the Shan Hai Jing to ensure that we have complete combat power in the Shan Hai Jing..."
"Is the environment there harsh" Jiang Wang asked.
“It’s completely different from the real world,” said Zuo Guangshu. “My family built this place based on the environment in the Shan Hai Jing, specifically for refining things here.”
He looked down the corridor, his voice trembling: "And this place is called 'Shan Hai Purgatory.'"
" purgatory" Jiang Wang was a little surprised.
Zuo Guangshuo said: "I think the name is very appropriate. Every room in front of you is a human purgatory."
The young man in front of him confirmed the arduous training he would endure over the next few days. Jiang Wang, however, smiled and said, "If I had known I would have to suffer this much, perhaps I would have run away halfway."
Zu Guangshu glared at him.
"To be honest, I still don't quite understand." Jiang Wang asked again, unable to help himself. "What kind of place is this Shanhai Realm"
Zuo Guangshu thought seriously for a moment, as if considering how to explain things clearly to Jiang Wang.
"Then he said, 'The Shan Hai Realm is a place between reality and illusion. It's a world that Huang Wei created out of nothing. It might just be a game, or it might hold earth-shattering secrets. People who come out of there always describe its wonder, but no one can ever explain it clearly."
Almost everyone says that they are just describing a "what if" scenario. And when we piece together everyone's accounts, we still don't get a complete picture.
Let me know if you'd like to translate something else!
It is more complex and vast than anything any experiencer has ever seen, and therefore it possesses possibilities that are far beyond imagination.
I can only say that I cannot accurately introduce it to you because I have not been there either.
The information we have now might just be a single spot on a leopard, or a single leaf in autumn. I can't tell you that the leopard is just a spot, and autumn is just a leaf.
“I’m becoming more and more interested.” Jiang Wang turned his head to look at the path before him. There was only curiosity, and no fear: “Then let’s start with this Shan Hai Refinery!”
Huang Wei, who enlightened Zen Master Su Mi Shan with a single glance and made him return, created the Yanfa Pavilion, enabling Chu's magical arts to reign supreme throughout the land. This Huang Wei, renowned as "the most romantic in three thousand years" in Chu, …
What kind of wonder is the Shanhai Jing he left behind
When describing it, Zuo Guangsu even used the word "world".
Jiang Wangzhen was full of anticipation.
Ancient sages, like the bright moon, always inspire later generations to look up in admiration.
Practitioners seek to learn from the past and present in order to achieve greatness, of course, they must also pave the way for the future. But before that, at least we should see the scenery that predecessors have already glimpsed.
Clearing the mists of history, visiting legends slumbering in time, this is also the romance of practitioners.
> "If we want to learn about the Shan Hai Jing in advance, we are already in the most appropriate place."
Zuo Guangshu walked forward in the corridor and reached out to pat the crystal door of the first room on his left.
"Brother Jiang, as you are friends with the young master of Chongxuan family, you must be familiar with the power of Chongxuan, wouldn't you say"
Jiang Wang smiled: "Of course not."
He is facing Chong Xuan Zun as his opponent, how could he not familiarize himself with Chong Xuan's power.
It's a pity that Chong Xuan Sheng didn't remove the Chongxuan Divine Ability. Even with the manipulation of the Chongxuan Secret Method, no matter how exquisite it was, it was ultimately fundamentally different from Divine Ability.
Although he had mastered Chong Xuan Sheng's Chong Xuan secret technique completely, he couldn't guarantee that he could definitely face the power of Chong Xuan.
Left Guangshu didn't think so much, he just continued to introduce: "The power of Chongxuan can be divided into yin and yang. It is also the power of clear energy rising and turbid energy sinking. In our mortal world, we are constantly influenced by the power of Chongxuan. But mostly it tends towards a state of normality, neither increasing nor decreasing, long ago accustomed to it by our bodies..."
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Jiang Wang was a little surprised: "I didn't expect your Zuo family to have research on the power of Chong Xuan."
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Zuo Guangshu glanced at him: "Among those who control the profound secrets of the world, the Chongxuan family of Qi State is considered the best. It's an instinct flowing in their blood, something no one else can match... But that doesn't mean others don't study the power of Chongxuan."
What is the relationship between the Shan Hai Jing and the power of Chong Xuan
“The profound power we feel in reality is completely different from the layers we experience in the Shan Hai realm. In that place, it’s as if someone is constantly using profound magic on you, pulling you down continuously. What we need to endure is hundreds of times the profound power compared to the real world.”
The crystal door to the first room on the left became completely transparent with a light tap from Zuo Guangshu.
Standing in the corridor, looking through the transparent crystal gate into the interior, the space beyond the gate was extremely vast.
Here's the translation:
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
It wasn't the kind of martial arts training hall that Jiang Wang had imagined.
On the contrary, after the Crystal Gate it seemed to be an open and expansive region.
It was vaguely a wasteland.
The sky was overcast, the clouds pressing down like a heavy weight. The jagged peaks and bizarre rocks...gave a feeling of great oppression.
Beyond this crystal gate, it seemed to lead to a completely different place.
>
This is not like Luoshan at all.
"In all the Shanhai Purgatories, the most common one is Chongxuan Purgatory. You can't really say it's common, it's more like an advancement." Zuo Guangshu casually pinched a tactic and explained to Jiang Wang: "This room is filled with ten times the Chongxuan power of the real world. We can go in and adapt first."
As his words fell, the crystal gate slowly rose, until it was completely retracted into the stone wall.
But there was still a layer of crystal gate.
It is a double-layered crystal gate design, presumably to prevent the heavy Xuan force from the inner realm from intruding, thus resulting in such a structure.
>
Following closely behind Zuo Guangshu, they walked to the middle of the two crystal gates. At this moment, the outer crystal gate slowly lowered and closed completely, only then did the inner crystal gate open.
The instant the crystal gate swung open, Jiang Wang immediately felt the pressure.
The pressure is far denser and heavier than in the present world, permeating every part of the body.
It makes you want to lie flat on the ground, but even lying down wouldn't help because your blood and muscles feel heavier too.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
"How are you doing" Zuo Guangshu strode into this eerie wasteland, stopping beside a grotesquely shaped rock that resembled a demon. He turned back to look at Jiang Wang: "Are you still getting used to it"
Jiang Wang grasped the details of his body, his muscles trembling in minute increments at an extremely high speed as he slowly moved forward. The question he asked, however, was completely unrelated: "Does this door lead to another place It doesn't look like Luoshan where we were just now, nor does it seem to be in the valley."
After passing through the Crystal Gate, my vision was liberated, and I could finally see the surroundings clearly. As far as the eye could see, there were only strange rocks. Those stones, in their natural forms, portrayed a grotesque, chaotic, and terrifying scene.
You could also hear the cold, sharp sound of the wind in your ears, which made you feel even more oppressed.
This place is obviously not a blessed land.
“In the Hellfire Mountains, many rooms are indeed connected to special places through formations,” Zuo Guangshu explained. “But this room is not. This room is still within Mount Luo. The reason why it's so large and desolate here, completely different from Mount Luo, is all due to the formations.”
Jiang Wang didn't understand formations, he only had a nodding acquaintance with them.
And just at this moment, suddenly—
Click!
The strange stone beside Zuo Guangshu suddenly split open, revealing a stone claw!
Jiang Wang observed the changes calmly.
>
Only then could one see Zuo Guang's splendid, brocade robes billowing in the wind as he casually grabbed the stone claw and snapped it with ease before tossing it behind him.
With a single palm strike on that demonic-looking rock, it shattered before fully transforming into a demon. The fragments lay neatly piled on the ground.
"This is a stone golem puppet made by the people of the Mo family, used to simulate the environment in the Shan Hai Jing," Zuo Guangshu said casually. "The stone golems in the Shan Hai Jing are not so easy to deal with."
“Apart from the environment with ten times the profound energy of the present world, are there only stone monsters here” Jiang Wang asked.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
“Yeah, there are only stone golems in this room. The environment is relatively simple.” Zuo Guangshu said: “Because you’ve never been exposed to this kind of environment, I think you need to adapt gradually, from simple to complex.”
Jiang Wang felt the environment with her body while smiling: "You've thought this through carefully."
Left Guangshu looked at Jiang Wangdao: “I think you probably have some understanding of this place…”
"I wouldn't say I understand, just starting to get to know him." Jiang Wang was very humble.
"Let's try a little sparring, shall we" Zuo Guangshu's voice held a hint of excitement. "I'll help you get used to this environment as quickly as possible."
When one's cultivation reaches Jiang Wang's level, lifting a thousand jin is as easy as flipping one's palm. A little bit of heavy profound power pressing down on him wouldn't affect him at all.
But if the body has to bear this immense power of the Xuan force at all times, it is indeed difficult to guarantee that combat effectiveness will not be affected.
Zuo Guangshu had of course long since adapted to countless such times, let alone a room with ten times the power of Xuan. Even a room with one hundred times the power of Xuan, he could move freely in it.
Therefore, it was inevitable that I would develop the idea of defeating Jiang Wang at this time.
After all, since Jiang Wang topped the Taixu Fantasy Realm's Inner Palace first, he has never won against Jiang Wang again...
In the heat of battle, Jiang Wang would never yield.
Xiao Guang's thoughts were almost written all over his face, it was really not hard to see through.
But looking at his eager appearance, Jiang Wang couldn't help but press his forehead.
No matter what... I've already built the Starlight Sacred Tower.
The chasm between the Inner Palace and the Outer Tower, no matter how easily crossed. After all, I am the first scholar recorded in history who stood beside the main star of Jade Scales within the Inner Palace...
You are so young, how can you be so brave
And to be honest, although Chong Xuanpang hadn't removed the Heavy Xuan Divine Power, his research and application of Taoism were beyond reproach. Although he later refused to truly fight Jiang Wang, in order to allow Jiang Wang to adapt as much as possible to the fighting style of Heavy Xuan Zun, the personal field control and auxiliary training was quite a lot...
In other words...
This point, the power of Xuan's environment, didn't amount to anything for Jiang Wang.
He started off slowly, purely out of caution for the unfamiliar surroundings, plus a little bit of playful teasing in front of Xiaoguang.
Who would have thought this young boy could have such a wolfish ambition!
"I'll just get used to it some more..." Jiang Wang hesitated, "It still doesn't feel very comfortable right now."
Zuo Guangshu's eyes shone brightly: "Combat is the most comfortable way to adapt to the environment. We used to do it this way!"
He personally explained, reasoning and appealing to their emotions: "You need to adapt gradually. But until when The Shanhai Realm will open on February 16th! We don't have much time left! Time waits for no man!"
"Is that so" Jiang Wang still hesitated a little.
His face showed three parts hesitation, six parts uncertainty, and one part nervousness. The expression was very precise.
"Come on, come on!" Zuo Guangshu enthusiastically invited, "Let's just go through the motions, just to get used to the environment. Don't overthink it!"
Here is the translation:
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
“If you insist on fighting now…” Jiang Wang sighed, “Then alright.”
...Just twenty breaths later...
Left Guangshu fell from the air, landing in a pile of rocks and scattering them everywhere, causing dust to fill the sky.
Jiang Wang slowly flew over, his face full of concern: "Come, Xiao Guangshu, let your elder brother help you up."
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
Zuo Guangshu crawled out of the pile of crooked and bizarre rocks, wiped the smudges from his forehead, and muttered, "It's not necessary."
After he stood still, he couldn't help but say, "You adapt very well!"
“Actually, it's not that good. I'm forcefully resisting it.” Jiang Wang said with some regret: “So I can't really control it well, Xiaoguangshu, are you okay”
This is an example of a prompt.
Let me know if you'd like me to translate anything else!
Zuo Guangshun, immersed in the unhappiness of defeat, even forgot to correct the word "little".
"I think this room will have limited effect on your training." He was, after all, a spirited young man. After sulking for a while, he said with great determination, "Come on, let's go straight to the room that adapts to fifty times the gravity of Xuanli!"
"Jump that high"
“Don't worry, you're adapting very well.” Zuo Guangshu still gave him encouragement.
>
Jiang Wang looked somewhat embarrassed, but still reluctantly nodded: "Alright, for the sake of helping you, I can do anything!"
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
The two people thus walked out of the room, the crystal door slowly closing and returning to its translucent state. It allowed one to vaguely see something, but not clearly.
Left Guangshu led the way to the fifth room on his left. This time, he said nothing and directly opened the door.
Beyond this crystal door, lies a desert environment. Sandstorms rage, obscuring the vision and limiting the sight.
>
Occasionally, some poisonous creatures like stone centipedes and sand scorpions appear and disappear in one's field of vision.
Having had a previous experience, Jiang Wang fully understood that these environments were secondary; they merely gave one a general idea of what existed in the Shan Hai Realm and served as a reminder not to let one's guard down. The most important thing in Chongxuan Purgatory was the ubiquitous Chongxuan power.
Fifty times the power of a world's heavy profound force, it has actually exceeded the pressure given by the usual victory of heavy profound.
But for Jiang Wang...
> It can still adapt.
Thus, after twenty breaths...
Left Guangshu was buried in the sand.
When fighting, Jiang Wang was full of life and vigor, but as soon as the battle ended, he seemed to start feeling out of place again.
Not only was he slow to fly, but his speech was also slow and deliberate, giving off an air of old age: "Xiao Guangshu, are you alright"
Not long after...
"Tsk tsk tsk!"
Zuo Guangshu crawled out of the sandpile, spitting out sand non-stop.

"It's okay!" he said dejectedly, his face falling.
At this time, he was covered in sand, his hair was messy and a sand scorpion clung to it.
None could tell, from this boy covered in dust and sand, that he was once a handsome young prince.
"Or else, I'll just slowly adapt myself..." Jiang Wang said.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
"You've adapted very well." Left Guangshu gritted his teeth: "Come on, let's go to the room with one hundred times the Xuan force!"
"Isn't this progress too fast" Jiang Wang cautiously voiced his dissent.
"Take your time." Left Guangshu tried to coax Jiang Wang to keep up, and casually flattered him: "With your talent and aptitude, I think even a room with twice the power of Xuan wouldn't be able to hold you back!"
"Oh, is that so" Jiang Wang scratched his head and smiled sheepishly. "Really, I swear! I've gotten used to it myself... uh, a few days." Zuo Guangshu hurried a few steps forward. "Come on, this is the room!"
Jiang Wang smiled indulgently: "You really drive me crazy."
Keep up.
The transition from a tenfold gravity chamber to a hundredfold gravity chamber takes no more than half a day.
It can indeed be called lightning-fast.
A room containing a hundredfold heavier Xuan power is a square, massive stone chamber.
Inside was nothing, exactly as Jiang Wang had originally envisioned it, like a sealed martial arts training room.
“Under this kind of pressure, building an environment is extremely costly and difficult to preserve, so we got rid of all the unnecessary stuff. Starting from the room with sixty times the gravity of normal earth, it's like that.”
As he walked in, Zuo Guangshu explained, "There are bound to be some differences between this place and the descriptions in Shan Hai Jing."
After entering the room, Jiang Wang clearly felt a lack of coordination in his body.
The terrifying pressure made breathing difficult. Equivalent to one hundred times the gravity of the current world, it crushed every part of the body.
Even the flow of blood has become sluggish.
A little push from the Tao Yuan is needed.
It wasn't until the muscles had adapted and changed that the blood flow became relatively natural.
"The environment is a minor matter; it's mainly about adapting to this kind of pressure," Jiang Wang said as he slowly took a step forward.
This step seemed smooth, but Jiang Wang knew, and Zuo Guangshu also understood, that he had failed to maintain his composure.
This so-called "attitude" is not about etiquette or anything else.
>
After countless battles, Jiang Wang had long since developed an instinctive state of being that could quickly enter a combat state at any time.
In different environments and facing different situations, the body will instinctively make adjustments to adapt to possible combat.
>
Just like before, outside Shimen, that "Scar Uncle" just gave him a look, and he immediately entered a fighting state.
This fighting stance had been lost, undoubtedly revealing Jiang Wang's unsuitability.
Although Jiang Wang adjusted quickly, there was a fundamental difference between his instinctive reaction and conscious resistance, of course.
“Come on, I’ll practice with you again!” Zuo Guangshu’s voice was a few notches higher, his beautiful eyes brimming with fighting spirit.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Of course, Jiang Wang had no reason to refuse after hitting the young man twice in a row.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Then... why don't we try
Stripped of all environmental influences, in this empty martial arts training room, the true essence of combat is most rigorously tested.
The moment the two sides squared off, a pale blue smoke rose from Zuo Guangshu's body, swirling around him like a layer of armor.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Unprecedented changes!
With a twist of his foot, he was already close by.
It was almost a blue phantom, flashing before one's eyes.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
This speed is unprecedented, far surpassing his performance in rooms with fifty times and ten times the power of Xuan.
The enhancement of Chong Xuan's power multiplied so many times over, but Zuo Guangshu was even faster!
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Of course, this speed was far from the point where Jiang Wang couldn't react. It was only when he seized the opportunity and slashed downward with his palm like a knife...
>
But it missed!
Simultaneously struck in the abdomen by a punch, his entire body arched and he was sent flying!
Jiang Wang realized at the first moment that it wasn't Zuo Guangshu who was too fast, but that he himself was too slow.
He indeed couldn't adapt immediately to the hundredfold gravity of this world compared to his own.
His body couldn't keep up with his fighting spirit. However, Zuo Guangshu, under the cover of that smoke armor, was almost completely unaffected by the influence of Chong Xuan's power.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
During the downward flight, Jiang Wang constantly adjusted his body details, hoping to adapt quickly and return to normal. But in this extreme environment, where could that be achieved immediately
At this moment, Zu Guangshu had caught up. He clasped his hands together and slammed down with a small cannon hammer, clearly wanting revenge for what happened earlier, smashing him to the ground.
At this moment, five light sources ignited in succession in Jiang Wang's chest and abdomen.
For a moment, the Five Palaces shone brightly together, entering the state of being within the Heavenly Palace.
Left Guangshu's fist, which held the hammer, was cradled in a single palm.
With a flick of his wrist, he seized Zuo Guangshu's mace hammer. He clenched the two fists, turned around and dove, slamming him to the ground.
A loud noise was heard.
Under the state of five elements flourishing together, his body was strengthened to its limit, protected by the light of the five divine abilities, he briefly withstood the influence of the heavy profound force.
That's definitely accurate and decisive...
Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!
...but they are really being a bit cheeky, aren't they
As agreed, this was a sparring session to adapt to the environment and showcase the peak fighting state of the five factions. There was no effect of adapting to the environment at all.
In the Sea of Mountains realm, where short periods can be days and long ones months, how could he possibly maintain a state of abundance all the time
Jiang Wang turned around and saw Zuo Guangshu perform a somersault, as if filled with boundless energy, charging towards him again.
This is a test.
"Again!"
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
In a sky-blue smoke armor, this young man's eyes flickered with defiance!
Jiang Wang was already feeling a bit heartbroken.
>
But he simply stepped onto the Azure Clouds with a firm stride, charging straight at it.
Two people bumped into each other. Jiang Wang, surrounded by the five-color light, and Zuo Guangshu, clad in blue smoke armor, exchanged dozens of punches and kicks in an instant...
PUNCHES MEET PUNCHES, ELBOWS MEET PALMS, KNEES COLLIDE WITH KNEES.
In a confined space, two individuals engaged in the most intense assault.
At last, with Jiang Wangyi's sword strike, the smoke-clad cave was shattered, marking the end of the battle.
With a flick of his sword, he followed up with a fist, directly sending Zuo Guangshu crashing to the ground.
Left Guangshu lay on the ground.
“Good...so strong!” he gasped.
Though the close combat just now was brief, it unleashed so much power that he felt somewhat exhausted.
He, of course, knew Jiang Wang was strong, but he had made much progress recently and had long since adapted to the environment of Chongxuan Purgatory... He never expected that he would still be unable to win.
There's no chance at all!
Jiang Wang retracted the five divine powers' radiance and landed in front of Zuo Guangshu, lowering her head to look at him with a gentle gaze. "How do you feel"
Left Guangshu gasped twice, then said, "Thank you!"
Jiang Wang smiled: "What are you thanking me for"
"Thank you for respecting me and not treating me like a child, nor deliberately letting me get away with things."
>
Zuo Guangshu spoke, placing his hand over Jiang Wang's outstretched one.
Jiang Wang pulled the young man up, saying, "Of course I treat you like a child, but in battle, there is no age. Guangshu, you've done very well. In the Illusory Realm of Taixu, you should be able to impact the top three of the Inner Mansion Realm."
Zuo Guangshu hadn't told him about his recent rankings on the Jiantai, Jiang Wang being able to judge so accurately meant he had clearly surpassed the level of the Nei Fu realm.
He glanced at him, but Zuo Guangshu ultimately didn't retort. Instead, he asked, "How is my Wuyu Smoke Armor doing"
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Jiang Wang was stunned for a moment, and then he reacted, saying in surprise, “That's a Taoist technique you developed yourself”
"Naturally." Zuo Guangshu raised his chin. "It's a Taoist technique I specifically developed to resist the extreme gravitational forces of a hundredfold gravity environment. It allows practitioners to exert their combat power without being affected by the surrounding environment."
"Want to learn" he looked at Jiang Wang, a hint of expectation concealed within his self-assuredness.
"Of course!" Jiang Wang was willing to give Zuo Guangshu face outside of battle, and acted very enthusiastically: "Such a mysterious Dao technique is exactly what I've been dreaming of! Teach me quickly!"
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Left Guangshu: ...
To be honest, he really does want this guy's approval.
But at this moment, there was only awkwardness.
Why can flattery be used to create a sarcastic effect
Zuo Guangshu took a deep breath and told himself not to take it too seriously. Maybe he was being too sensitive
"So, let's talk about this Daoist art. I think it could be quite helpful for our journey to the Shan Hai Jing..."
"Why would I take the form of smoke Because it has a very large freedom of space, capable of bearing more change. Specifically in terms of Taoism, this means..."
Under the environment of a hundredfold increase in profound Xuan force, the two began their Taoist teachings.
One teacher teaches diligently, and one student learns with enthusiasm.
"You're a genius! How did you even think of this step It's simply mind-blowing, astonishing, and I'm completely impressed!"
“Furthermore, Zuo Guangshu continued, “The most important thing about this school of esoteric arts is understanding the influence of Yuanli on the environment. You see, starting from the aspect of Dao Yuan's actions, it can…”
“What a brilliant idea! Even Huang Wei back then wasn't this good, was she You're only sixteen this year, and you can already create such ingenious Taoist techniques. It's truly terrifying talent!”
This is what you wanted.
"Cut it out!" Zu Guangshu finally couldn't help himself: "Or are you going to teach"
Jiang Wang blinked, not understanding what the current kids were up to.
Aren't you happy that I'm praising you
"Of course it's you teaching, you taught me." Jiang Wang mumbled awkwardly.
He originally thought about beating up this young man several times, turning this handsome young master into a ragged beggar who roamed the streets. It was also time to have a good talk, relying on his charisma to ease the tension and mend their relationship.
In battle, one shouldn't hold back, but there is true emotion in the world after all. A few compliments don't cost much effort, why not do it
>
> Unexpectedly, this child is quite clueless.
The Master of the Jiang clan in Qi state, with no way out, could only silently shut his mouth and listen to the lesson given by the young prince from Chu.
To be frank, Wuyin Jia is indeed a rather remarkable school of Taoism. It nearly perfectly solves the problem it sets out to address: countering the profound mystical forces within nature.
No matter how extreme the environment, as long as there is yuan force, it will exist in a way. This school of Taoism starts from the level of yuan force, using the practitioner's own Dao Yuan as the driving force, and constructing an environment that covers the practitioner, similar to a formation, with smoke armor.
> Environment against environment.
Every single step of Taoism's practices is created for this purpose. There isn't a single redundant step, and Jiang Wang could hardly find any room for improvement.
Zuo Guangsu's talent in Taoist arts can be glimpsed from this technique.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Jiang Wang learned diligently, and Zuo Guangshu taught with all his might. They soon mastered this art. However, Zuo Guangshu was based on water essence, and after mastering the essence of this art, Jiang Wang changed to use his more proficient fire essence as a foundation.
Once activated, the No-Smoke Armor was enveloped in fiery red smoke, resembling a suit of crimson armor.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Jiang Wang stood suspended in mid-air, feeling an unprecedented lightness.
The extreme environment of heavy Xuan power seemed to have lost its effect completely.
All limbs and senses are satisfied.
Left Guangshu, clad in a light blue smoke armor, stood opposite.
Although the Wuyu smoke armor has certainly been tested in battle, Jiang Wang still needs to personally experience more of it.
Therefore, a sparring session is very necessary.
The smoke made their faces less distinct.
In the fiery red smoke, like a man burning, this moment was so brilliant that it was hard to look at.
This is a test.
Zuo Guangshu's heart suddenly recalled a conversation—
The little one looked up and asked, "Brother, Grandpa said you created another powerful Dao art! Aren't you the most talented person in our Chu State"
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
"How is that possible" the person reached out and rubbed his head: "I've been waiting for you to teach me."
You didn't wait for me...
"I'm ready." Jiang Wang's voice rang out.
The sound is both tranquil and undeniably real.
This is not in the illusory realm.
