Chapter 0: 65. Specifically for Qin Type
“So domineering?”
Although Li Yuanzhen was currently standing within the Grand Array of the Abyss Palace, and it would naturally be easier to affect the array from within than from outside, the key was that it wasn’t a serious strike she had intentionally controlled.
“It seems your so-called ‘sharp enough’ far exceeds the general definition,” Qin Gou said with a smile to Li Yuanzhen.
It was clear that Little Gambler’s Natal Dharma Aspect, while appearing quite strange and unique compared to others, was definitely not weak.
Seeing this, Little Gambler couldn’t help but feel both surprised and delighted, saying, “It hasn’t been through actual combat yet, so I myself don’t know how powerful it truly is.”
“Can all your powerful sword techniques be displayed with this Dharma Aspect?” Qin Gou asked. “Including sword formations?”
“I think so,” Li Yuanzhen nodded confidently.
“Then the amplification of this Dharma Aspect’s power is not just a little bit.”
Qin Gou nodded slightly, and at the same time, asked the system in his mind, “A Xi, why is Yuanzhen’s ‘Ancestral Sword’ Dharma Aspect so different from True Lord Zhu Xie’s Humanoid Dharma Aspect?”
“Ding. The Natal Dharma Aspect is the comprehensive result of a cultivator’s state of mind, experiences, fate, cultivation techniques, and other factors. This kind of situation can indeed occur, and among the people the host knows, Li Yuanzhen is not the only one in this situation.”
“Who else?”
“Chan Master Miaoyin of Fusheng Nunn, Tang Simin. This Dharma Aspect is half-Buddha and half-demon, while the one from the Western Heaven Realm is half-demon and half-Buddha.”
“What’s the difference?”
“The difference in order signifies the difference in dominance. Chan Master Miaoyin embodies repaying grievances with justice amidst compassion, and meting out grudges with righteous anger. Fellow Daoist Tang, on the other hand, offers aid amidst bloodshed and pities the weak common people.”
“I really want to meet Fellow Daoist Tang from the Western Heaven Realm next time.”
Then, Qin Gou suggested to Li Yuanzhen, “Speaking of which, why don’t we have a real test and spar?”
“Okay, who will help this humble Daoist train?” Li Yuanzhen smiled brightly.
“Shen Yu.”
“Going that big?” Jing Liyu beside them exclaimed in surprise.
“Do you see even a hint of nervousness on her?” Qin Gou looked at Li Yuanzhen with a gentle smile.
Li Xiaogou’s lips curved upward, her eyes filled with eagerness. Not only did she look forward to actual combat, but she also trusted Qin Gou’s control over Dharma Aspects.
As everyone headed towards the Duel Arena, Qin Gou suddenly realized a problem. He glanced at Li Yuanzhen beside him again and shook his head, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
The most unique point about this ‘Ancestral Sword’ Dharma Aspect was that it wasn’t a biological form; everything depended on Li Yuanzhen’s own control.
Thus, Qin Gou’s mandatory command, the “Primordial Malevolence” power, which he used to control others’ Dharma Aspects, was completely immune to this Ancestral Sword Dharma Aspect, wasn’t it?
The Primordial Malevolence, which was like a nemesis and nightmare to countless Dharma Aspects in the world, something they desperately avoided, had thus become ineffective?
To put it simply, it was like “If I have no brain at all, I can never be controlled by others’ brains”!
For a moment, Qin Gou couldn’t help but look at Li Yuanzhen, who was completely bewildered, and patted her shoulder with newfound admiration.
This dog, she was truly a “specifically for Qin” type in every way.
…
At the same time, somewhere in the Abyss.
Lu Zhili, dressed in a blue dress, chanted a secret incantation and formed a hand seal, immediately causing a secret light portal to appear before her.
As soon as she stepped into it, she heard a captivating and soul-stirring voice.
“So, everyone has arrived.”
It could be heard that the owner of the voice seemed to be trying to make her tone cold and majestic, yet it still carried an innate strong charm that made one’s heart sway.
Hearing this, Lu Zhili quickened her pace and soon appeared in a brightly lit, luxurious hall.
“Zhili!”
Four beautiful and delicate women turned around and smiled at her. In front of them, on the main seat of the hall, was a mysterious woman wearing a black robe, but still unable to hide her alluring and heroic figure, with curves that could steal souls and a devilish body that could snatch away one’s gaze.
Lu Zhili immediately approached, first nodding to the four women, and then cupped her fists in salute to the mysterious black-robed woman whose face was hidden.
“Clan Leader!”
“Mm.”
This was not the homeland of the Wind and Snow Returnee clan, so the answer was clearly only one.
This mysterious black-clothed woman was the master of the Heartstriker Snake Woman of this generation.
“Since all five of our clan’s Saintesses have arrived, I will get straight to the point.”
As she spoke, the black-clothed woman took out a ‘bronze mirror’ from her Nas. A clear white light spot flickered on the mirror’s surface.
Outsiders couldn’t see the mystery in this scene, but many members of the Heartstriker Snake Woman clan, including Lu Zhili, showed deep surprise and exchanged glances.
“In this world, an outsider cultivator has appeared who possesses our clan’s Saintess’s Seal of Affection!”
The black-clothed woman’s gaze swept across the five people before her, her voice cold, “You five should know what this means. A being capable of completely immunizing our clan’s secret arts has appeared in the world! Although this was bound to happen, do you all remember the clan rules? As a Saint, once you give your Seal of Affection to another, you must report it to the clan as soon as possible?”
“We naturally remember.”
“How dare we neglect the clan rules,” the others immediately replied.
“But I’ve sensed this for more than a day or two. Why has none of you reported it to me until today?”
A trace of anger appeared in the black-clothed woman’s tone. “Besides the one who performed the ritual, even I cannot sense that person in person, which is why I have summoned all of you here today. I truly want to see which sister has, from the bottom of her heart, developed feelings and forgotten the family.”
“Now, I ask all of you to condense your sole Seal of Affection in front of me!”
“Yes!”
All five responded.
A moment later, a ball of radiance bloomed in the hands of the five Saintesses of the Heartstriker Snake Woman clan.
“At this point, why continue to pretend?”
The black-clothed woman shook her head, finding it somewhat amusing. She stepped forward, extended her snow-white right hand, and carefully sensed them one by one.
“Very good.”
“You are not it either.”
…
“Lu Zhili…”
By the time she reached Lu Zhili, the last person, the black-clothed woman’s voice grew colder. But before she could truly react, the sensation on her palm made her pause.
“How is this possible? All five Seals of Affection are present, and they are all real!?”
“How bold! You lot, you’re all more capable of talking nonsense than anyone else normally, I never expected you to actually…” Old Lu suddenly chided the other four.
The black-clothed woman gritted her silver teeth and said, “Zhili, is this the time to talk about that? It’s like seeing a ghost! Where did this extra Seal of Affection come from?!”
“Where is it extra? Isn’t it just right?” Lu Zhili said with a chuckle.
“Look for yourself.”
The black-clothed woman directly tossed the ‘bronze mirror’ in her hand over.
Lu Zhili caught it casually and exchanged some glances with the others beside her.
Immediately, the five Saintesses looked at the majestic black-clothed woman, who stood with her hands behind her back, with very strange expressions.
“Why are you looking at it?”
“Five? Aren’t there originally six?”
“Since none of us handed over our Love Seals, then it must be you, Clan Leader, who did!”
