Chapter 224: Spirit Turtle Tao Sound, Return to the Cave Mansion
Of course it is possible.
Li Ye glanced at the body that was growing just now and was certain that this Dharma Method considered everything, everything necessary was included.
And once fully grown, the descendants of this Wen Fanyan would likely possess special abilities.
Just like in those legendary tales, where the offspring born from the union of mystical creatures and humans possess unique Divine Techniques.
If he worked hard, he could even be a family by himself.
This ability is truly terrifying.
One person can propagate an entire family.
Li Ye suddenly thought of his uniqueness and the Hell Path's experiments; if those from the Hell Path discovered his existence, they would probably stop at nothing to seize him.
Perhaps he could be used as bait?
"..."
As soon as this thought arose, he shook his head.
Perhaps it would work, but he would do so only on the premise that Taoist Friend Wen wouldn't be harmed in any way, otherwise wouldn't he become a villain who disregards human life?
This isn't pedantry, but a line he would not cross.
In his view, there was never a saying like "sacrifice oneself for the greater good"; he had the confidence and capability to make everything as perfect as possible—sacrifice is simply a result of insufficient ability.
"About another twelve years."
"I'll visit you again when you can truly leave."
"If you need anything, tell the fox."
Li Ye gave a few final instructions and then turned to leave.
After sending Li Ye off, the White Fox promptly and dutifully lay close to the coffin, keeping watch closely at hand.
Every now and then it would ask:
"Gentleman, do you need anything?"
"I have quite a number of interesting books here, and I can tell you stories... By the way, I'm a fox, why not let me tell you a story about our Fox Race and scholars that must be mentioned."
"For some reason, these scholars seem to like writing about the love between Fox Immortals and themselves... Ah, and today's story is about that ungrateful scholar who abandoned our Fox Immortal after achieving fame and fortune."
It started to narrate incessantly.
As a sprite created by a great Confucianist in the Painting Path, this fellow knew plenty of mystical tales even just from hearsay and could tell them without any repetition.
Taoist Friend Wen's spirit nestled in the body, had already grown accustomed to listening to the White Fox telling stories over these twelve years, enjoying it immensely and even becoming a bit infatuated.
He suddenly felt...
This fox is so virtuous, beautiful, and also clever...
Just like those Fox Immortals in the stories, very much so...
...
In the field of Tribulation Crossing Immortal Lotus.
"Rumble!"
Thunder echoed and then subsided in the space created by the East Marsh Water Spirit.
True Man Yunming emerged from the lingering thunder and water vapor, holding the Eight Trigrams Turtle, gently exhaled a breath, and looked toward Li Ye in the distance.
He waved enthusiastically: "Taoist Friend Li, long time no see!"
This Taoist Friend Li really is a prodigy!
In these twelve years, he experienced the Thunder Tribulation many times; it really was no different from the original Thunder Tribulation, and it was truly a transformative trial for him.
"Hmm."
Li Ye nodded slightly in response and then focused his gaze on the Eight Trigrams Spirit Turtle held by him; the three Yin on its back representing the Earth Trigram had completely dimmed.
This indicates...
True Man Yunming looked down at the Eight Trigrams Turtle, laughed heartily and said:
"I can decipher a bit of the Tao Sound within it now."
"Taoist Friend, you came just in time, please lend me a bit of your Mana."
Li Ye was also very curious about what this Tao Sound was.
So he handed a bit of Spiritual Power to True Man Yunming, who immediately injected it into the Kun Trigram on the turtle's back.
At this moment.
The radiant light of Spiritual Power burst forth.
A very calm male voice came through from within:
"Therefore, the wise nourish life by aligning with the seasons and adapting to the cold and heat, maintaining harmony in joy and anger to ensure peace and well-being."
"In the three months of spring, this is called the release of life's glory, where heaven and earth are reborn, and all things flourish."
"..."
This voice entered Li Ye's Divine Sense directly, stirring waves, as if truly an ancient great sage was imparting wisdom to him.
Like grand tones from mighty bells.
Directly into the Divine Soul.
The true essence of this Taoist Technique rapidly formed a layer of vibrant green light on him, full of vitality, his steps light as if walking on a spring breeze, the slightest movement of his fingers even conjuring a wisp of spring wind!
These brief two sentences left him utterly stunned.
Heritage!
This was a transmission on the Taoist Technique of nourishing life for longevity during the spring season.
Though it was just recitation of those two sentences, the Tao Sound contained within directly imparted the heritage to him, a miraculous power only achievable by such Tao Sound!
However.
Isn't this the Great Disc on the Four Qi and the Nourishment of the Spirit from the Su Wen part of the Inner Canon of the Yellow Emperor?
Wait.
Isn't it the Sound of the Canon of the Yellow Emperor's Inner Canon that's narrated, rather than farming tools?
How are the sections for summer, autumn, and winter missing!
This feeling of abrupt halt at a crucial moment nearly drove him insane; with all his Qi Cultivation, he even felt a sudden urge to scratch his ears, finally calming down with great difficulty.
"There must be more."
"This was just one unlocked seal that revealed the Tao Sound of spring."
"If it were fully unlocked..."
Could it be the entire Great Disc on the Four Qi and the Nourishment of the Spirit!
The light from the Spirit Turtle slowly faded.
True Man Yunming instantly noticed Li Ye's somewhat "fierce" expression, startled, he immediately cradled the somewhat weakened Spirit Turtle protectively in his arms.
——He had heard of instances before where, due to dissatisfaction at not hearing enough, one tried to snatch the Spirit Turtle, unexpectedly causing its demise.
