Chapter 1827 Cultivation and Protection!
"Besides!"
The power contained within a law-based spiritual object is of an extremely high level, and its backlash is anything but ordinary.
At best, it can cause serious damage to the foundation of one's path.
In severe cases... there is a risk to one's life.
"But with me personally here to protect and watch over you, I might be able to offer some guidance at crucial moments."
At least it will ensure your lives are not in danger.
Upon hearing this, Murong Wanwan and Cheng Ping'an exchanged a glance, both feeling a chill run down their spines, yet also a surge of warmth welling up within them.
They knew that Cheng Buzheng's words were true; even the slightest fluctuations from the spiritual objects of that law were so terrifying, one could only imagine the risks involved in cultivation.
With her husband (father), who is already a powerful cultivator at the Nascent Soul stage, personally protecting her, it is undoubtedly the strongest insurance policy.
"It's all up to my husband (father) to arrange."
The two responded in unison, offering no further objections. They immediately sat down cross-legged, focused their minds, and prepared to begin this crucial cultivation practice.
Inside the quiet room, the atmosphere suddenly became solemn and focused.
At this moment, time seemed to become viscous and slow down.
Under Cheng Buzheng's steady, unwavering gaze...
Murong Wanwan and her son Cheng Ping'an abandoned all distractions and began to carefully guide their magical power according to the profound method to touch and communicate with the two spiritual objects of law floating in front of them.
Cheng Buzheng did not intervene directly, but rather acted like an experienced helmsman, guiding the way on the edge of turbulent waves.
His voice was not loud, but it clearly reached the deepest part of their hearts.
Every word contains a profound understanding of the laws of the Tao.
"Concentrate your mind and focus your attention on the dantian."
Do not force them, but guide them with divine will, like streams flowing into the sea, so that they may naturally resonate with your origin.
He spoke first to Murong Wanwan, his gaze falling on the fiery artifact in front of her.
"Wanwan, your understanding of the fire attribute law is violent. You should use resilience to overcome rigidity, proceed slowly, and feel the warmth of 'life' within it!"
Rather than the brutality of burning.
Murong Wanwan did as she was told, and fine beads of sweat gradually appeared on her smooth forehead.
The flames appeared gentle, but the power of the laws they contained was as vast as a starry sea.
When her divine sense first ventured into the ocean, it was like a small boat venturing into a raging sea, almost capsizing due to the invisible fluctuations of the laws.
A moment of disordered breathing caused her magical power to stagnate slightly, and the flames in front of her suddenly intensified, with a scorching aura sweeping back, threatening to destroy her meridians.
"Certainly!"
Cheng Buzheng flicked his finger, unleashing a gentle yet incredibly pure force of law that arrived first despite being launched later.
Like a gentle spring breeze and nourishing rain, it instantly calmed the restless fire and neutralized the backlash.
He spoke calmly:
"Impatient and restless mind is a major taboo."
The fundamental laws cannot be communicated with by brute force.
Try again, and remember that feeling of balance.
the other side!
Cheng Ping'an's situation was even more perilous.
The [Thunder Crystal] he faced was incredibly domineering; the pulsating arcs of electricity seemed to possess their own life, unruly and untamed.
Cheng Ping'an tried to force the connection using his pure lightning-attribute magic, but the result was like pouring cold water into boiling oil.
"Crack-!"
A barely perceptible yet chilling explosion rang out, and several tiny arcs of electricity suddenly burst forth from the crystal.
Like a silver venomous snake, it devoured Cheng Ping'an's heart.
Cheng Ping'an's face turned pale instantly, and he felt his soul tremble.
At this critical moment...
Cheng Buzheng's figure remained motionless, but an even grander and deeper will had already descended.
It was not a forced suppression.
Instead, it gently "pacified" the raging electric arcs with a supreme attitude.
Those few deadly bolts of lightning became docile as if they had encountered a king, and instantly retreated back into the crystal.
"fool!"
Cheng Buzheng gave a low rebuke, his tone carrying a hint of sternness.
"Even the most powerful thunder magic has its order!"
By using chaos to quell violence, aren't you just adding fuel to the fire?
Feel its rhythm, resonate with it, rather than resist it!
Imagine your thunder as a channel to guide it, not a cage to imprison it!
Cheng Ping'an was still shaken and panting heavily. He dared not make any further rash moves and obediently followed his father's instructions to readjust his mindset and techniques.
The process of cultivation is full of ups and downs.
The mother and son were walking a tightrope over a bottomless abyss; every adjustment of their breathing and every communication of their thoughts was accompanied by enormous risks.
Although that law-based spiritual object was an unclaimed, inanimate object, its essence was extremely high.
The slightest carelessness could trigger a backlash as powerful as divine retribution.
On Murong Wanwan's side, due to excessive mental strain, her control over the firelight decreased, causing the firelight to flicker and the heat wave to hit her face.
Sometimes, due to excessive caution, the connection with divine will is interrupted, causing the aura of the spirit to become obscure and unclear.
On Cheng Ping'an's side, things were even more complicated.
Either the resonance is too strong, causing the electric arcs to fly wildly, and the ends of the hair are slightly raised by the electric shock;
Either the guidance was inadequate, or the lightning surged wildly through his meridians, causing him to grimace in pain, yet he dared not utter a sound.
Every time a dangerous situation arose, Cheng Buzheng always managed to intervene at just the right moment.
Or gently press down with your palm to stabilize the restless spiritual energy around you;
Or they might utter true words, which would transform into profound runes to stabilize the impending rampage of the laws.
Or it could directly separate a wisp of divine thought, subtly intervening in their magical power circulation, guiding it back to the right track.
His methods are effortless; he always manages to quietly defuse any devastating backlash before it truly takes hold.
It can be said that without Cheng Buzheng, a Nascent Soul cultivator, personally watching over them every step of the way...
With their profound understanding of the laws and their ability to correct and protect her, even if Murong Wanwan and Cheng Ping'an's supernatural powers and methods were flawless...
They had already suffered either death or serious injury, and their foundations were completely destroyed, due to the backlash from those near-misses.
In the silent chamber, only the faint hum of flowing magical energy and Cheng Buzheng's occasional, concise instructions could be heard.
Time passed by little by little...
After countless close calls, the mother and son gradually became proficient in operating the [World-Suppressing Sacrifice Technique], and their connection with the spiritual objects of the laws in front of them, which was initially precarious, became relatively stable and deep.
The light emanating from the two treasures began to create a subtle, harmonious rhythm in sync with their breathing.
After a perilous initial training period, we have finally gotten on the right track without any major incidents.
In the blink of an eye, half a month has passed quietly.
Inside the quiet room, the air was filled with the gentle fragrance of sandalwood.
Cheng Buzheng stood with his hands behind his back, his gaze fixed on Murong Wanwan not far away.
The fluctuations of laws surrounding her slowly receded like a tide, and the originally outward-radiating pressure gradually inward, transforming into a point of spiritual light between her brows.
"Excellent." Cheng Buzheng's lips curled into a slight smile.
"It seems my wife has already mastered this technique to the basics."
They should be able to finish soon.
However, after an incense stick had burned...
Murong Wanwan remained in a meditative posture.
Cheng Buzheng frowned slightly, extending his divine sense like a thread to carefully sense the surroundings.
"Strange. Logically, the cultivation should be complete by now."
His fingertips unconsciously caressed the Qiankun thumb ring.
"Could it be that something went wrong with the cultivation technique?"
But after repeated examination, everything was clearly normal.
Just as his mind was racing...
Murong Wanwan's eyelashes trembled slightly as she slowly opened her eyes.
Seeing the worry still lingering on her husband's brow, she smiled gently.
"I've made my husband worry."
"I was comprehending the profound mysteries of the cultivation technique just now, which is why I was delayed for a few hours."
She gently raised her hand, and a wisp of pure fire-attribute elemental power flowed between her fingertips:
"With this method, the realm of Nascent Soul is no longer out of reach."
The words have not yet been spoken!
Murong Wanwan suddenly coughed lightly, a trace of crimson spilling from the corner of her lips.
Cheng Buzheng's expression changed drastically. He instantly teleported to her side, and the power of the law had already entered her body.
"It doesn't matter."
Murong Wanwan wiped away the bloodstains and smiled sweetly.
"It was just a slight backlash from forcibly using a wisp of the source of the law."
It's nothing serious, a little fixing will do.
Hear the words.
Cheng Buzheng let out a long sigh of relief, then said seriously:
"My dear wife, you should know that this 'True Crystal of Departing Fire' can help you gain insights and break through obstacles, but you should avoid using it when facing enemies."
However, if you encounter an insurmountable opponent while traveling, feel free to use it.
"At worst, I'll find you a fire-attribute spiritual object later."
The backlash was also treated by her husband himself.
However, if you suffer any backlash later, you must notify me immediately.
"Also, wife, don't forget that if you don't comprehend the rhythm of the laws within, you must reseal the spiritual object containing the laws."
otherwise!
Over time, the essence of the laws and spiritual entities sealed within the body will gradually dissipate.
Upon hearing this, Murong Wanwan's eyes warmed, and she nodded with a smile:
“My husband’s considerations are thorough; I have taken note of them.”
In the quiet room, the Taoist aura flowed.
The two looked at each other and smiled, their eyes reflecting the bright future ahead.
at this time···
The spiritual energy in the quiet room seemed to be stirred by an invisible giant hand, and the domineering and sharp fluctuations of law around Cheng Ping'an suddenly froze.
Like the brief ebb tide before a tsunami.
Followed by.
It surged back at an even faster speed, transforming into a torrent of pure energy that rushed into Cheng Ping'an's burly body.
His clothes, which had been slightly bulging from the exertion of his internal energy, gradually flattened, and a faint, precious light shimmered on his exposed bronze skin.
This further accentuated his masculine vigor.
Immediately,
He suddenly opened his eyes, as if a cold bolt of lightning had ripped through the air in the quiet room, and a sharp, unbearable glint flashed in his eyes.
It then disappeared into the deep pupils.
He exhaled a long, drawn-out breath, carrying an air of domineering power.
Clearly, his cultivation level has improved by another level.
next moment!
Cheng Buzheng's familiar and calm voice rang precisely in his ear, unhurried yet carrying an undeniable authority:
"Ping An, did you hear the conversation between your mother and me clearly just now?"
You must keep these key points firmly in mind and never overlook them.
Upon hearing this, Cheng Ping'an's expression turned solemn, and he respectfully nodded in response:
"Yes! I understand."
These spiritual objects imbued with the laws of nature are precious, their greatest value lying in helping one comprehend the laws of heaven and earth and seek that mysterious opportunity to break through to the Nascent Soul realm.
Rather than something for a momentary display of strength in a battle.
"I am very pleased that you understand the importance of this matter."
Cheng Buzheng nodded slightly, a hint of approval flashing across his face, before changing the subject.
"By the way, now that you have initially mastered the [World-Suppressing Sacrifice Technique], you might as well continue cultivating the [Ancestral Mark] supernatural power here."
With me by your side, I can offer timely guidance should you encounter any difficulties.
The words have not yet been spoken!
Cheng Buzheng's gaze had already shifted to Murong Wanwan beside him, his eyes filled with a mixture of amusement and tenderness, and he chuckled softly:
“Wife, if you are also interested, why don’t we try to understand it together?”
Unfortunately... you cannot inherit my bloodline, so this supernatural power is probably useless to you.
otherwise……"
Before he could finish speaking, a smooth, fair hand shot out like lightning, finding the soft flesh at his waist with pinpoint accuracy.
Immediately following was a perfectly timed, yet powerful, 180-degree spin that made one wince.
"hiss--!"
Cheng Buzheng immediately gasped.
The slight mocking smile on his face vanished instantly.
Instead, he wore an exaggerated expression of "pain".
Next!
Murong Wanwan's voice, gentle enough to melt hearts yet brimming with murderous intent, echoed softly in his ear:
"Husband, what did you just say?"
My hearing seems to be failing me lately, and I didn't hear you clearly. Could you please repeat it again, my husband?
As she spoke, the slender fingers that had been resting on Cheng Buzheng's waist tightened their grip by three points.
Upon seeing this, Cheng Buzheng immediately followed suit and hurriedly begged for mercy:
"It was my fault for speaking out of turn!"
My husband speaks without thinking!
Please forgive me, my dear wife!
I'll never do it again!
Seeing her husband's winking and feigned "pain," Murong Wanwan's stunningly beautiful face finally revealed a hint of girlish smugness, and she let out a soft snort:
"Humph!
I bet you won't dare do it again!
"How dare you presume to be my elder! If you continue with your unbridled speech, I will not let you off easily!"
"There will never be a next time! I promise!" Cheng Buzheng vowed earnestly, his expression utterly sincere.
Of course, this was entirely a pose he deliberately put on.
With his current physical strength, far surpassing that of ordinary top-grade magic weapons, his wife's strength was nothing more than a tickle to him.
But he knew that "admitting defeat" at this moment was the highest principle for family harmony.
Cheng Ping'an, who stood by with his hands at his sides, had witnessed his parents' interaction. He was secretly delighted, but he forced himself to remain composed, not daring to show it in the slightest.
"Ha ha!
I never imagined that my father, who was usually so dignified and respected by all the cultivators in the clan, would behave like this in front of my mother…
Such a vivid side!
And at this very moment...
A phrase he'd heard somewhere before unconsciously surfaced in his mind:
Perhaps, only in front of the one they love will even the strongest man inadvertently reveal such a childlike and innocent side.
Just as Cheng Ping'an was lost in thought, secretly savoring this heartwarming scene...
Cheng Buzheng's voice, now bearing a hint of authority, rang out again, pulling him back from his wandering thoughts:
What are you still standing there for?
Time is precious; it should not be wasted!
"Why aren't you quickly calming your mind and preparing to cultivate your supernatural powers?"
"I don't have that much free time to waste with you."
"···"
