Chapter 1937: Ominous Signs
This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
"Ancestor, are you truly at ease..." Xun Ziyou frowned.He is merely at the Foundation Establishment Late Stage, not at the Late Golden Core Stage. It’s manageable within the Second Grade state boundary, but once he reaches the Third Grade state boundary, the dangers are truly numerous.
Especially in some situations, the threat is genuine and omnipresent, even he, a Late Golden Core elder, might not be able to handle it.
Elder Master Xun was silent for a moment, then sighed slowly, not answering the question but responding with another:
"Do you think Mo Hua will stay in my Taixu Sect?"
Xun Ziyou was taken aback, "You mean... whether he will enter the Inner Gate?"
Elder Master Xun nodded.
Xun Ziyou pondered for a moment and said, "He likely will... After all, he is the Formation Leader. Although his Spiritual Root is somewhat lacking, his innate talent in formations is extraordinary. Plus, he’s contributed greatly to our Taixu Sect. Logically, the sect will accept him into the Inner Gate..."
"And the elders throughout the sect all like this child. Mo Hua gets along well with fellow disciples and the elders too. If he’s not entering the Taixu Inner Gate, could he possibly join another sect?"
Elder Master Xun shook his head, "This child is destined not to stay in Taixu Sect..."
Xun Ziyou was puzzled, yet dared not ask too much, merely saying:
"If he doesn’t enter the Inner Gate, then he has to travel outside, and find a way to form a Core himself..." Xun Ziyou frowned deeply with profound concern, "Facing the elements like that would be too harsh, and who knows how many dangers he might encounter..."
It’s not just as simple as "dangers."
Elder Master Xun did not clarify.
Mo Hua’s true background is barely known within Taixu Sect.
And with such significant karma upon him, the crises he’ll face in the future will be even more terrifying.
Terrifying to an extent unimaginable for ordinary people.
The enemies standing against him are unpredictably strong too.
"One can safeguard for a time, but not for a lifetime..."
Elder Master Xun sighed deeply, "Some dangers, he can only confront and overcome himself."
"Blessings come from adversity; crisis and opportunity are intertwined in this world. Only by overcoming dangers, experiencing trials, finding opportunities in dire straits, and advancing step by step can one truly be reborn from the ashes, becoming stronger."
"Sect, elders, treasures, these are all external; they are others’ given ’strength’.
"Only by truly relying on one’s own knowledge, experience, wit, and strength, surviving adversities, and turning misfortunes into fortunes can one achieve real ’strength’.
"A sword tempered in fire has its true sharpness."
Xun Ziyou’s expression was solemn, then he nodded in deep agreement.
Cultivators raised in comfort often cannot withstand hardship or failure, easily shattering their Taoist Heart when encountering true adversities.
Ordinary people only know to admire cultivators for their Spiritual Root, Blood Qi, lineage, and appearance—shallow things.
Not realizing that the most valuable treasure in a cultivator is actually a Taoist Heart tempered by trials and unyielding to adversity.
This kind of Taoist Heart is hard to forge without trials.
"The Ancestor’s foresight is profound," Xun Ziyou said, "I won’t interfere with what Mo Hua wants to do."
Xun Ziyou stood, intending to leave, but was then stopped by Elder Master Xun.
"Stop."
Elder Master Xun said, "Don’t really not interfere."
Xun Ziyou was stunned, "Ah?"
"Can’t really not intervene at all."
Elder Master Xun said, pondering for a while in his heart, after all, he could not bear it.
The saying goes, a sharp blade comes from sharpening, and plum blossoms’ fragrance stems from bitter cold.
Indeed it’s true, but Taixu Sect has only this precious disciple, Mo Hua. If he were to get injured or die carelessly...
Just the thought makes Elder Master Xun’s heart ache.
Moreover, Mo Hua is not like other prodigies; he does not have a special Eternal Life Rune upon him.
Without this protection, not a single oversight is permissible.
Even a slight mistake could lead to total ruin.
Trying to undo it would be too late for regret.
Elder Master Xun previously indeed thought about planting a special Eternal Life Rune for Mo Hua to protect him at critical moments.
But Taixu Sect does not have any "aged to death" Heaven Void.
Even if there were, without kinship or connections, how could they expend their essence to plant an Eternal Life Rune for an unrelated child like Mo Hua?
Elder Master Xun considered doing it himself.
But Taixu Sect has few Heaven Voids proficient in formations and rudimentary Heavenly secrets—only him.
Currently, the Qianxue State Boundary is shrouded in darkness, storms are looming, the situation is perilous.
Many major affairs require his personal planning.
His old bones still need to burn on, continuing to uphold the sect’s legacy.
It’s impossible to truly damage his essence and sever his path for Mo Hua by planting such a special Eternal Life Rune.
He could only think of other ways.
"If Mo Hua goes out to travel, leaving Taixu Sect and the Qian State, far-fetched and distant, I couldn’t manage it even if I wanted to."
"But at least near the Qianxue State Boundary, there should be something as a safeguard to protect him thoroughly."
Elder Master Xun took out a pristine Jade Pendant and handed it to Xun Ziyou.
"Tai Xu Yin Yang Lock is the supreme treasure of my Taixu Sect. Now it hangs around Mo Hua’s neck, guarding his karma."
"This Jade Pendant is paired with Tai Xu Yin Yang Lock, capable of sensing a part of his karma’s aura."
"If this Jade Pendant is white, it means all is well, and Mo Hua will encounter no accidents."
"If pale red, there’s a minor crisis; if deep red, there’s a major crisis;"
"If black," Elder Master Xun’s gaze turned grim, "...Then it’s the sign of death!"
Xun Ziyou’s expression became solemn.
Elder Master Xun gave him the Jade Pendant, instructing, "Keep this Jade Pendant with you, follow him, not too closely. Let him solve whatever issues arise himself, but should he face life-threatening major crises, at any cost, you must protect him."
