Chapter 457: So-called Dao Techniques [Seeking Monthly Votes!!]

Grand Void Dao Field, in the small hut of the Master Wanshou Daoist.

"You brat actually succeeded?"

The spirit of the small old man widened his eyes, a face of disbelief.

Although the Great Dao Induction Chapter he passed on was only a small means useless for cultivation, it was not something that could be practiced so easily.

This method was created by the Master Wanshou Daoist for his most promising little disciple.

If he remembered correctly.

That little disciple, who was hailed as having hope of becoming a Daoist, also used a full year.

How many days did Li Rui take?

Very wrong!

The spirit of the small old man narrowed his eyes.

He realized that Li Rui should have some kind of method, and could even deceive him; the foundation he saw was completely what Li Rui deliberately showed.

Although he was only a remnant soul, he still had some strength.

It was certain that he was stronger than Li Rui, at least by one or two realms, never expected that he would also be deceived.

"Good kid!"

He was not angry but happy.

Gifted, and knowing how to hide his light, such talent was hard to find even with a lantern.

Li Rui was precisely such an extremely hard-to-find talent.

No need to think.

The means to deceive two major realms were not easy to cultivate; this kid before him clearly prepared for this for a long time, so he could achieve such an effect.

The spirit of the small old man did not persist in having to figure out Li Rui's bottom line.

Who didn't have some secrets?

Those who could reach the supreme place were all people with great good fortune.

Just like his Daoist master, who said to the outside world that he relied on seniority to become a Daoist, but in fact, he also obtained many heaven-defying good fortunes.

Li Rui, as the successor of the Master Wanshou Daoist ten thousand generations later.

Naturally, the stronger, the better.

And he was just a spirit, and a remnant soul at that, impossible to exist permanently, and would dissipate when the time came.

No matter how many secrets Li Rui had, they had no effect on him.

His only thought was to complete the mission.

So the more monstrous Li Rui was, the more likely he was to complete the mission of preaching and teaching.

Li Rui: "Senior, I have indeed learned it."

The spirit of the small old man couldn't help but urge: "Tell me, what kind of Great Dao did you see?"

Li Rui told everything he saw one by one.

He had no waves about Li Rui saying he had no affinity with those Great Daos of Time and Space.

Comprehending the Great Dao, even with the Great Dao Induction Chapter, was only increasing some choices; how could it be like a vegetable market, picking arbitrarily?

The spirit of the small old man said:

"This matter cannot be rushed; choosing the Great Dao is of utmost importance; it is extremely cost-effective to spend three to five years to find it."

"Of course."

"You brat, don't be greedy; the word 'ultimate' is ethereal; just find one that suits you and has fewer struggles."

Li Rui nodded.

A slight surprise in his heart.

He knew the myriad Great Daos of the world, but never expected it would take three to five years to find one.

One must know.

At that time, he might have already become a Heavenly Phenomenon.

However, in order to find a suitable Great Dao, a slight delay was fine.

Once stepping into the Heavenly Phenomenon, his lifespan would reach a terrifying eight cycles, comparable to the First Rank; there was plenty of time.

Afterward.

Li Rui also asked the spirit of the small old man about many doubts in cultivation.

The spirit of the small old man was worthy of the inheritance of the Master Wanshou True Person, and answered them one by one.

"Brother Purple Yang, I also have my difficulties; I was already thinking of a way, but the Su Xuan Yu Peak is always causing trouble, I truly have the heart but not the strength."

Li Rui said helplessly.

Hearing the three words Su Xuan Yu Peak, the Purple Yang Old Daoist became even more awkward.

He naturally had long heard that the disciples of Su Xuan Yu Peak came to Mount Changqing Peak, only to be scared away by the great array set up by Li Rui before they even reached halfway up the mountain.

The Purple Yang Old Daoist felt secretly shocked.

He knew.

When the two met for the first time, Li Rui didn't know arrays at all.

Never expected.

How many years had passed, and the other party's array attainments had already shown signs of great success.

Extraordinary.

One must know that entering the array path is extremely difficult; many array masters are still apprentices after ten years, and Li Rui's move that day was already at the level of a grandmaster.

At least Fourth Rank!

Third Rank Below Tongxuan plus Fourth Rank Array Master.

Such a person would be treated as an honored guest anywhere.

The Purple Yang Old Daoist coughed lightly: "Those juniors don't understand things, I will definitely go back and tell Senior Brother Su Xuan Yu to restrain them more; please bear with it."

Li Rui looked at the Purple Yang Old Daoist with a smile, looking troubled:

"Brother Purple Yang, you also know, my position is caught in the middle..."

Caught in the middle?

The Purple Yang Old Daoist only felt it was a fantasy.

Who didn't know that Lord Li, the Right Vice Censor-in-Chief of the Yu Kingdom in the Qingwei Sect, was resourceful and ate from all three sides.

Purple Yang Old Daoist: "Lord Li, didn't you say before that you wanted to find the Spirit Brilliance Array? I begged for a long time to get it."

After saying this.

The Purple Yang Old Daoist took out a yellowed ancient book from his bosom.

It was precisely the Spirit Brilliance Array that Li Rui had sought before.

Li Rui looked at the Purple Yang Old Daoist with a smile.

Clearly.

The Purple Yang Old Daoist had put in a lot of effort; a Third Rank array was indeed useful to an array master like him.

Li Rui accepted it without hesitation.

The Purple Yang Old Daoist thought he had grasped Li Rui's thoughts; a Third Rank array had no small attraction to a Fourth Rank array master.

Little did he know.

To Li Rui, it was just dispensable.

Li Rui spoke lightly: "Brother Purple Yang, it's just because we are brothers that I say a few more words; the water is too deep, I'm afraid you can't grasp it."

As soon as this was said.

The Purple Yang Old Daoist was shocked: "Brother Li, why do you say that?"

Li Rui sighed lightly: "Brother Purple Yang, you are a master of the world, and don't understand the Yu Kingdom imperial court deeply; I investigated, the matter of Junior Nephew Chang Su Xuan is extremely likely related to the Po Jiao Army."

Po Jiao Army!

Hearing these three words, the Purple Yang Old Daoist stopped speaking.

Li Rui thought he didn't understand the Yu Kingdom imperial court deeply, but in fact, it was the exact opposite; he was the one who understood the secular world best among the disciples of the Great True Person Qing Ding.

And the Po Jiao Army in Li Rui's mouth was the private army of Prince Wei, Zhu Gan!

Which meant to say.

Chang Su Xuan's death was related to a prince!

The water was not just deep.

No wonder Li Rui was so secretive.

Involving a prince, even the Qingwei Sect had to be extremely cautious.

The Purple Yang Old Daoist took a deep breath: "Brother Li, I understand."

Afterward.

The Purple Yang Old Daoist seemed a bit absent-minded, chatting with Li Rui in a disjointed manner, and after about a stick of incense, he found an excuse to go down the mountain.

Li Rui looked at the departing Purple Yang Old Daoist, his heart moved slightly.

He naturally knew that the Purple Yang Old Daoist understood the Yu Kingdom extremely deeply.

That was why he said that.

If it were someone else, he wouldn't have asked at all.

Unlike others, he appreciated this good-natured Purple Yang Old Daoist the most among the disciples of True Person Qing Ding.

Let's just say this.

The Purple Yang Old Daoist had a very good reputation in the Qingwei Sect, whether it was disciples or elders.

Just this point was an extraordinary feat.

Li Rui recognized the Purple Yang Old Daoist's ability to handle things, which was why he mentioned the Po Jiao Army.

He had seen with his own eyes that Nanhua Sect disciple being abducted to the spirit mine.

Whether it was Zhu Gan's work or not.

As long as the Qingwei Sect found the right direction and investigated carefully, they would always gain something.

He was precisely borrowing the hand of the Qingwei Sect to investigate Zhu Gan.

Whether it was Zhu Gan, one would know upon investigation.

He had no interest in what Zhu Gan wanted to do, but if Zhu Gan's actions implicated the Yu Kingdom officials in the Ten Thousand Mountains, then he couldn't be blamed for acting first.

Being stupid didn't matter, but if he was stupid enough to implicate others, that was a crime deserving death.

As for offending Zhu Gan?

He just told the Purple Yang Old Daoist a sentence; Zhu Gan couldn't possibly know.

Taking a step back.

Even if Zhu Gan knew, so what?

His experience destined him not to live in peace with this Prince Wei; since that was the case, rather than waiting for the other party to take action, it was better to take action before the other party implicated him.

Being an official in the Yu Kingdom required awareness.

He was the Emperor's person, not someone of a prince or a high official.

Everything had to be prioritized for the Emperor's interests.

As long as this point was grasped.

Then one could stand in an invincible position.

Although Zhu Gan was the Emperor's son, the imperial family was the most ruthless, especially since Zhu Gan's behavior harmed the Emperor's ambition to build a ten-thousand-generation immortal dynasty.

Let alone a son, even his own father wouldn't work.

Such things had happened too many times.

Li Rui secretly pondered:

"Can a prince commit a crime and be punished the same as a commoner?"
