Cold air from the mountain crevices rushed upward with a howl, piercingly icy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet the mountain’s chill could not match the glacial cold of Lu Xueqi’s gaze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Explain!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Xueqi spoke again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Qing had begged Lu Xueqi for help—how could she possibly speak up? So she had acted at Dragonhead Peak, seized Gu Qing, and brought him here with a flash of sword light, to this secluded, uninhabited spot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Thank you, Sister Lu.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Qing rose and bowed to Lu Xueqi. “I provoked Qi Hao on Dragonhead Peak just to spar with its disciples—but now that you’ve come, not only Dragonhead Peak, but all the other peaks will surely hunt me down.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Xueqi was the undisputed goddess of Mount Qingyun—her coming to find Gu Qing and dragging him away had instantly drawn every ounce of hatred toward him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qi Hao should kneel and kowtow to her—he’s finally free.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Explain the cultivation technique!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Xueqi ignored all that, speaking coldly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Qing slowly suppressed his smile and spoke seriously: “The technique I taught you is the Great Brahma Sutra of Tianyin Temple.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Qing spoke plainly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Xueqi had already braced herself—she had assumed she’d accidentally learned a Buddhist technique, planning to dismantle it once she understood the truth—but hearing “Great Brahma Sutra,” she realized she’d stumbled into something catastrophic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This supreme scripture of Tianyin Temple was no longer a matter of whether to discard it—just hearing its name was already a crime.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Explain clearly!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Xueqi pressed her lips together, her face tinged with sorrow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had been dragged into a terrifying vortex—she would never again be the pure, untainted disciple of Mount Qingyun.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sister Lu, you needn’t fear.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Qing comforted her: “The Great Brahma Sutra is among the finest techniques in the world—it fortifies the meridians and stabilizes the spirit. As long as you don’t fully activate it, even Master Shuiyue won’t detect anything amiss.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Zhang Xiaofan was injured multiple times during the Seven-Peak Tournament, Tian Budi cared for him deeply—yet never sensed the Great Brahma Sutra within him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Lu Xueqi’s heart eased slightly, but she asked: “Where did you get this technique?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I stole it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Qing spoke frankly: “I stole it by accident. Afterward, I knew I was doomed—but I couldn’t bear to leave nothing behind in Mount Qingyun. You’re gifted and cultivated—I staked everything to pass it on to you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In Gu Qing’s telling, teaching Lu Xueqi was entirely for the sake of Mount Qingyun.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Noble. No words needed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I thought: when Tianyin Temple comes to reclaim it, I’ll just die—but they’ll never suspect you carry a lineage of it. Thus, Mount Qingyun’s strength will only grow.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Qing’s gaze was complex. “But today, you came loudly searching for me—I wonder if you’ll be dragged into this.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Is it my fault for being too impulsive?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Xueqi felt a flicker of shame—but something felt deeply wrong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She never wanted to learn the Great Brahma Sutra!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So altering the Buddhist sutras into Daoist script—was that your doing?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Xueqi asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Had it been Buddhist scripture from the start, she would never have learned it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Qing said lightly: “It’s just translating Han into Han—nothing much.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Qing made it sound simple, but Lu Xueqi knew it demanded profound wisdom in both Buddhist and Daoist doctrines. She studied him now—his robes fluttering in the wind, calm and effortless—as if he’d just shattered heaven itself, yet showed no fear of impending doom.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Your ‘Guiyuan Sword Technique’ during our sparring—it was different.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Xueqi felt she must ask thoroughly, so she brought up his earlier move.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s an atmosphere—called Sword Heart Enlightenment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Qing spoke briefly, then stepped forward and leapt down the mountain. Since his cultivation, things were different—he used Taiji Xuanqing Dao to ride the wind, landing beside a secluded spring.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Xueqi followed, landing beside him. She watched him channel his Daoist energy to carve a stone pot, then gather branches with a flick of his hand—his methods seemed Taiji Xuanqing Dao, yet held hidden ingenuity, utterly distinct.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If you want to learn Sword Heart Enlightenment, cook me a fish.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Qing sat calmly aside, smiling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Cihang Sword Scripture of Cihang Pure Studio was inherently Buddhist-Daoist, a path to the Dao through sword art. Even in this xianxia world, its principles still held value.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Xueqi looked at Gu Qing, then at the deep pool—fish were indeed moving within. She lightly formed a hand seal, summoned a spell, and transported water and fish together into the stone pot, then began forming another seal to ignite fire.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Wait.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Qing frowned. “Sister Lu, how much do you know about cooking fish?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Xueqi raised an eyebrow. Honestly, she found Gu Qing’s clear gaze and neat appearance unobjectionable, and his sword art intrigued her—that’s why she agreed to cook for him. But his skepticism annoyed her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Boil the water—the fish will cook.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Xueqi replied succinctly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“And?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Qing asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Xueqi hesitated. “The pot must be placed over the fire.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perfect—you’re a general!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Qing’s eyes filled with tears—he nearly leapt to cheer. He snatched the fish, expertly skinned and scaled it, dried the moisture. Compared to Zhang Xiaofan’s rustic kitchen skills, Gu Qing had studied Lu Miaozhi’s recipes and traveled across multiple worlds—he was a connoisseur of unparalleled taste. Now displaying his culinary art, he pulled out pre-prepared jars of seasonings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Xueqi sniffed the rising aroma, growing increasingly astonished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Eat.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Qing produced the chopsticks he’d just made and handed them to Lu Xueqi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Showing off his cooking had always been part of Gu Qing’s plan. Lu Xueqi inhaled the fish’s fragrance, glanced at him, then silently took the chopsticks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After finishing the fish, Gu Qing turned to Lu Xueqi and explained the Bodhisattva Sword Scripture—a set originally thirty moves, refined by Shi Feixuan into nine, containing Gu Qing’s own insights into sword art. Lu Xueqi listened silently, feeling this three-foot sword technique greatly benefited her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“When you return, focus on deep cultivation.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Qing rose at once. “I’m leaving to deal with the Blood-Sucking Pearl, then returning to Mount Qingyun to face punishment.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Qing looked resigned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Xueqi’s heart stirred—she recalled his earlier request: that she guard him while he sealed the Blood-Sucking Pearl.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Should I go?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1153,"2026-06-20T17:04:27.745Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","fd11b191f4c269b68d367d0e40365a36d4eacc9542b0c4d0e73faaa0e7993793","living-among-all-heavens-achieving-immortality-t-chapter-309","living-among-all-heavens-achieving-immortality-t-chapter-307",449,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fliving-among-all-heavens-achieving-immortality-t-cover.jpg"]
