Chapter 322: 134. True Dharma Eye and Conversation

But just because the Yin Demon Sect didn’t have it, didn’t mean Qing Yu didn’t. Conveniently, he had just acquired a complete set of Martial Arts that perfectly matched Wuyue’s attributes.

Even though the Mingyu Skill was not as high-grade as the Divine Skill cultivated by Wuyue, because of the perfect attribute match, it could still unleash eighty to ninety percent of its power.

Thus, Qing Yu smiled and said, "It just so happens that I have a Martial Arts technique that I can give you..."

Suddenly, Qing Yu faltered because the Martial Arts techniques retrieved by the system were also directly transferred into his mind, just without the enlightenment of other cultivators.

Without a recorded medium, Qing Yu couldn’t merely describe the moves of "Shifting Flower and Receiving Jade" and the movement technique of "Light Dream Dance Flower Shadow" verbally. A live demonstration would also be inappropriate, for employing "Light Dream Dance Flower Shadow," a technique identified with a female practitioner, would be somewhat awkward when performed by him.

If he were to give a live demonstration, it would completely ruin the dignity of the Dragon Chief of the Azure Dragon Association.

’Maybe I can try this...’

An idea suddenly flashed through Qing Yu’s mind, and he said immediately, "Do not resist."

Once he finished speaking, an invisible flow of Thought Power poured into Wuyue’s forehead and withdrew as soon as it made contact. Wuyue reflexively wanted to retaliate with spiritual power, but upon encountering the Thought Power, he found a vast amount of imaging memory flooding his mind.

"This is..." His first thought was that Gong Ziyu was attempting to use an Illusion Technique to ambush him; coming from the Demon Sect, how could he not be wary of Gong Ziyu?

But then Wuyue realized that it wasn’t an Illusion Technique ambush; Gong Ziyu was imparting Martial Arts to him.

It only took a moment for Wuyue to assimilate the Martial Arts transferred by Qing Yu. Qing Yu had only transferred "Mingyu Skill," "Shifting Flower and Receiving Jade," and "Light Dream Dance Flower Shadow." He had not transferred any Martial Arts enlightenment from Yao Yue, so it made sense that Wuyue digested them quickly.

After closing his eyes and processing the information, Wuyue opened his eyes and exclaimed in surprise, "The ’True Dharma Eye’ of the Great Zen Temple, how do you know this magic door?"

Wuyue was indeed shocked, and even his usual cold demeanor was hard to maintain. Transferring cultivation techniques directly was, in fact, something many people could do, especially once reaching the Divine Origin Realm, when they were already capable of using spiritual power.

However, the prerequisite for this action was that the receiver had to lower their mental guards and connect with the spiritual power of the transmitter. During this process, if either party harbored ill intentions, the other would be utterly defenseless.

This method was simply not acceptable for two individuals in a cooperative relationship; therefore, the possibility of spiritual power transfer was completely severed.

And the technique Qing Yu had just used matched only the ’True Dharma Eye’ of the Great Zen Temple among the known techniques of today. Originating from the anecdote of Buddha’s smile upon picking a flower, the Zen Sect’s ’True Dharma Eye’ values the heart-to-heart and eye-to-eye transmission of teachings without needless words.

Unlike spiritual power transfer, the user of this technique had no reservations or taboos; merely through eye contact, the intended information could be transmitted.

Qing Yu was also aware of the anecdote of picking a flower and smiling, but he had been unaware that the Great Zen Temple also possessed the ’True Dharma Eye.’ This revelation made Qing Yu instantly vigilant. Thought Power, different from spiritual power, was more profound and secretive. Few cultivators involved themselves in it, except, Qing Yu himself practiced other methods of Thought Power cultivation in addition to ’Ten Thousand Paths.’

But now, he was learning from Wuyue that the Great Zen Temple also possessed a similar magic door, which forced Qing Yu to wonder whether the Great Zen Temple might be practicing Mind Power.

’It looks like I need to be more cautious when using my mind power; I can’t afford to lose my vigilance just because of its marvelous subtlety.’

Thinking this to himself, Qing Yu quipped with a smile, "Do you think that Gong Ziyu, a man with blood on his hands, would have any connection with the Great Zen Temple?"

Hearing this rhetorical question, Wuyue also couldn’t help but internally chuckle. Gong Ziyu could indeed have no dealings with the Great Zen Temple unless one day he decided to lay down the butcher’s knife and convert to Buddhism.

Chiding himself for his momentary lapse in composure, but on the other hand, Wuyue was increasingly recognizing the prowess of Gong Ziyu. Whether related to the Great Zen Temple or not, having a method similar to the ’True Dharma Eye’ spoke volumes of the dangerous potential hidden within Gong Ziyu.

After laughing for a while, Qing Yu asked, "So, who is it that you want to kill?"

"Are you familiar with the Heavenly Demon Palace?" Wuyue inquired.

"Heavenly Demon Palace?" Qing Yu perked up.

He had, of course, heard of this sect. When he first encountered the Demon Young Master commanding the young elites of the Six Demon Sects, Qing Yu took note of his background.

Subsequently, through information from the Shadow Pavilion, Qing Yu gathered that the Demon Young Master was very likely from this origin of the Demon Path, the Heavenly Demon Palace. Naturally, Qing Yu then wanted to know the internal affairs of the Heavenly Demon Palace.

The Shadow Pavilion, known as "Daqian’s shadow," indeed had formidable intelligence capabilities. The Heavenly Demon Palace had always been secretive about its public appearances, yet the Shadow Pavilion even had detailed information on them.

(Foregoing further elaboration as stated prior, let us mention something not yet discussed.)

"Is the Heavenly Demon Palace about to make its move?" Qing Yu asked.

The Heavenly Demon Palace only emerged during times of great chaos. This chaos did not refer to dynastic wars of succession. Although such wars might reshuffle the powers within the world, the truly deep-rooted forces, such as the Daoist and Buddhist sects, would remain stable as Mount Tai regardless of upheaval.

The type of chaos the Heavenly Demon Palace required was of a kind both natural and man-made, where the common folks could easily perish. In such times of turmoil, those deeply rooted great sects with histories spanning thousands of years might crumble overnight, and the accidental deaths of thousands were common occurrences.

This sort of turmoil was something that even a war between Northern Zhou and Daqian could hardly compare with.

Qing Yu had to admit, he was somewhat frightened; the world was arguably unstable, merely calm on the surface, but it didn’t seem like the apocalypse was about to happen anytime soon. When exactly Northern Zhou would start fighting with Daqian was still an unclear matter!

"It seems the Dragon Chief knows quite a bit, eh? The Heavenly Demon Palace isn’t something the average person knows about," Wuyue noted.

The last emergence of the Heavenly Demon Palace was around nine hundred years ago. With such a vast span of time, without the support of a historic force, it would be tough to know of it. The Azure Dragon Association, appearances notwithstanding, had only Gong Ziyu as a notable Divine Origin Realm expert, yet his background seemed rather profound.

"There are indeed signs that the Heavenly Demon Palace intends to emerge, and they have already begun integrating the Six Demon Sects," Wuyue soberly confirmed.

’The Heavenly Demon Palace is so sure that great upheaval is about to happen? From the current situation, there doesn’t seem to be any sign of such vast disorders,’ Qing Yu wondered to himself.

While thinking thus, Qing Yu immediately grasped the underlying meaning in Wuyue’s words, "Judging by your tone, it seems the Six Demon Sects aren’t too keen on being assimilated by the Heavenly Demon Palace, are they?"
