Chapter 147 113, A diary entry, and the enemy will retreat (Thanks to Chennian Laojiang for the 10,000 points reward)
Dai Huanzhen obtained the method in a very straightforward manner, simply asking a cultivator for it. Faced with Dai Huanzhen's undisguised display of power and pressure, the cultivator didn't hesitate at all and handed over the second volume of "Tan Shuchang's Cultivation Diary" to Dai Huanzhen.
Since he had already read it before and couldn't buy the fourth volume at the moment, he had no choice but to read the second volume again.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
With some curiosity, Dai Huanzhen opened the cultivation diary, not knowing who it belonged to.
Dai Huanzhen was certainly literate and could understand the writings of Tan Shuchang, it was just that he had no understanding of who Tan Shuchang was, and he had never heard of Tan Shuchang's name before. Discover hidden tales at empire
However, within his perception range, most cultivators were reading this, and even among the collections of some wealthy mortals, there was such a volume of "Tan Shuchang's Cultivation Diary," which caught his attention.
Upon opening it, Dai Huanzhen first showed a look of astonishment, followed by a frown, but slowly, Dai Huanzhen began to show a hint of thoughtful expression.
In his eyes, there was a hint of approval as well.
However, in contrast to Dai Huanzhen's calm, the Sword Dao power within him, the so-called Solitary Sword Intoxication, could not be calm, because, in its view, this was nothing but a book of nonsensical words.
"Why are you looking at this?" Solitary Sword Intoxication thought Dai Huanzhen was just wasting his time; he had helped the other to escape a predicament, merely seeing him as a suitable tool.
The hatred and talent of the other held the potential to carry the murderous Sword Dao and his Sword Dao power.
In short, he was an excellent vessel.
"Senior, it's just that I see people here, cultivators, mortals, all reading 'Tan Shuchang's Cultivation Diary.' I wondered if there might be something beneficial in it, that's all," Dai Huanzhen had already sent the cultivator away and made sure there was no one nearby, so he replied with confidence.
"Now that you've seen it, it's nothing but a joke of a book. Hurry and adapt to the power you now possess, then proceed to cultivate the Sword Dao," Solitary Sword Intoxication coldly spoke.
The cultivator who had taken the Chaotic Life Dharma Bead had a very high level of swordsmanship, and a strand of Bloody Sword Qi could split into tens of thousands, directly cleaving at the origin. If not for his low strength, that sword was absolutely at the level of evolving law and might.
Some sword cultivators who had reached one proof might not be able to produce such a sword strike.
Therefore, though Dai Huanzhen was merely an excellent vessel, Solitary Sword Intoxication had no intention of letting this vessel simply rush to his death. In Solitary Sword Intoxication's estimation, once Dai Huanzhen mastered the murderous Sword Dao and then leveraged his Sword Dao power, they could contend with the opponent.
When the critical moment came, he could sneak attack and retrieve the spirit-communicating treasure, the Chaotic Life Dharma Bead, with a near certainty!
There was no choice, that youngster's strength was outrageously strong!
Solitary Sword Intoxication estimated that even the Sons of the Heavenly Mandate raised by Mt Tu Jian, Shangqing Guan, or Western Tuo Mountain would only end up being slain on the spot if they encountered this individual.
His current schemes to eliminate this youngster were also to pave the way for their Sword Temple's Son of the Heavenly Mandate.
It was just a pity that the youngster was unappreciative. If he were willing to acknowledge him as a master and become a nominal disciple, as long as he performed well in the future and made significant contributions to the great cause of the Sword Temple, once the Jiawu Realm's heaven and earth returned to normal, he could find a way to help him ascend. It wasn't an impossible task!
"Senior, I feel this isn't a joke of a book…" Dai Huanzhen couldn't help but retort, then worried that this mysterious senior would leave him, thus Dai Huanzhen explained, "Senior, look at this sentence here. Inside Qitian Pavilion, it turns out to be all Qitian Pavilion's people.
On first glance, this seems absurd, but upon careful thought, aren't those in high positions within Qitian Pavilion always from that group of people? This one's descendants, that one's relatives, which of them truly come from a loose cultivator's background?"
Solitary Sword Intoxication, upon hearing this, said nothing because he sensed the thoughts and emotions in line with the murderous Sword Dao within Dai Huanzhen escalating, which was undoubtedly good news. Thus, Solitary Sword Intoxication said, "Then continue reading."
He didn't care who among Qitian Pavilion's people held high positions; what he cared about was when this tool would master the murderous Sword Dao and then fight to the death for him.
"Yes! Thank you, Senior!"
Upon hearing this, Dai Huanzhen carefully read on in the second volume of "Tan Shuchang's Cultivation Diary," and the more he read, the more he felt that it was filled with various life lessons.
Don't put too much pressure on yourself, it's appropriate to take a broader view of life sometimes. If someone you are close to is living a hard life, don't take on a responsibility that isn't yours to carry. Even without you, they might not reach the pinnacle of life; their current situation stems from their past choices.
One must learn to refuse. The end result of inability to refuse is a life that no longer belongs to oneself.
Friends are not about quantity, but quality. The more friends one has, the worse off one is. A normal life doesn't need so many friends unless there is some grand scheme to accomplish.
Any kind of relationship where the other party never considers your feelings or interests is a signal for timely loss-cutting.
Everyone has their own desires...
As Dai Huanzhen read on, though only halfway through, he already felt as if his soul was trembling. At this moment, he had an urge to take Tan Shuchang as his master.
