Chapter 8: Have You Read Books?

Li Qingxian was quite satisfied with his observation object. So under Li Xianzhi's gaze, he was quite proud.

Li Xianzhi looked at this proud little old man and found it funny. Could this guy think he was praising him?

"Have you read books?"

"What?" Li Qingxian felt his brain wasn't enough; what did "have you read books" mean? Could he remove the "have you" part? No matter what, he was the head of the Li family of the Profound Garment Guard, and his martial arts and talent were top-notch in the world.

Who are you insulting?

Li Qingxian wanted to curse, but facing Li Xianzhi's look like he was looking at a retard, Li Qingxian wasn't confident. Did he really look uncultured?

"What are you doubting? Doubting my judgment?" Li Xianzhi didn't give him any face at all.

"Please speak clearly, Senior." Li Qingxian was naturally unconvinced, although he was in awe of Li Xianzhi's potential identity, he wouldn't accept being told he hadn't read books.

"Since you think you've read books, then tell me, what does the word 'Burning Silence' mean? What does 'Burning' mean, and what does 'Silence' mean?"

"Burning means fire burning..." Li Qingxian subconsciously prepared to explain. However, Li Qingxian wasn't stupid; after a moment of distraction, he knew Li Xianzhi's intention.

"Speak, continue explaining." Li Xianzhi looked at Li Qingxian, who was stunned, with a smile.

"Senior, please don't mock the junior. Please teach me, Senior." Li Qingxian was sweating profusely. Now he knew Li Xianzhi was referring to his cultivation problem.

"Read more books, and once you understand them, you will naturally know. The so-called cultivation is the unity of man, heart, and nature. Your body refining is not bad, and your choice of divine object is not bad, but this heart is wrong. What is the heart? It is the node between man and nature. Do you understand?"

"It's not bad that you want to walk your own path, but you have to follow the basic laws and basic rules of nature. Otherwise, how can you step into Ascension? Or even achieve divinity?"

Li Xianzhi didn't directly point out the drawbacks of Li Qingxian's cultivation. In fact, there were many people like Li Qingxian who pursued the ultimate, pursued the ultimate self, and then used this ultimate power to impact the laws of nature, creating a path by themselves and achieving divinity.

However, Li Qingxian was still a bit short, or rather, if he continued to do so, he would stop here in this life.

"Senior, are you saying that I, pursuing the ultimate Burning Plains Intent, was wrong? But isn't it better to specialize in one path between fire and silence?" Li Qingxian didn't understand. Wasn't cultivation about focusing on one thing and having no other intentions?

Two intentions lead to demonic intentions; I don't know how many cultivators have fallen due to greed.

"You can, but can you? Or rather, can you control the Burning Silence Sword with your path? How important is a divine object to a cultivator? You should know in your heart. What is a divine object? It is a medium for cultivators to intervene in the natural Dao, and it can only be used for one's own use by moving the heart.

"Just like when you first meet your superior, you have to please others well before they can treat you as one of their own? Of course, you can say you have real ability, but the problem is, do you?" Li Xianzhi looked at Li Qingxian's twitching old face and found it very interesting.

Li Qingxian was struggling.

This concerned his path of cultivation, and for a time, it was difficult to choose. Li Qingxian understood what Li Xianzhi said, but he was unwilling in his heart. Li Qingxian always felt that mediocre cultivation was what ordinary people did, and extraordinary people should have extraordinary paths.

Li Qingxian asked himself if he was an extraordinary person.

But today he wavered. Yes, why did he think he could control the Ninth-Tier divine object Burning Silence Sword with his path? That was a divine object left behind by the Ancient Heavenly Monarch.

"Senior, I..."

Li Qingxian didn't know how to answer Li Xianzhi's words.

"Think about it yourself; what I said is not necessarily the truth. Whether you can achieve a path depends on your own fortune."

Li Xianzhi said and closed his eyes, not speaking.

He had said too much today, but this person had some karma with him, so giving him some fortune was reasonable.

Li Qingxian seemed to be possessed, his face turning red and white, like a mental patient.

Crying and laughing, laughing and crying.

Crazy and miserable, many cultivators had come through this way.

"The road ahead is long and arduous, I will search up and down."

Looking at Li Qingxian's heart, which was about to collapse, Li Xianzhi was like an immortal descending, his mouth containing the constitution of heaven, giving Li Qingxian a blow to the head.

"Many thanks for the guidance, Senior."

Li Qingxian respectfully kowtowed to Li Xianzhi. At this moment, Li Qingxian felt cold all over; if Li Xianzhi hadn't pulled him back in time, he would probably have gone crazy.

"Yes, I was too anxious."

Li Qingxian sighed. Cultivation was not a matter of one day or one night; if one wanted to achieve something, one must have a spirit of seeking.

Can't be anxious.

Lao Huang was Li Qingxian's exclusive carriage driver, usually very efficient. But today Lao Huang looked like he had lost his soul, letting the carriage hit three pits in a row.

"Lao Huang, what are you doing?"

Li Qingxian was already uneasy, and seeing Lao Huang, who was usually steady, let the carriage shake continuously today, he was a bit angry.

Lao Huang was about to cry.

As Li Qingxian's exclusive carriage driver, which of the dignitaries didn't give him three points of courtesy when they saw him? This was all because of his master's prominent identity.

And today, the unremarkable young man in the carriage actually made his master so respectful and kowtow, which made Lao Huang terrified, losing his sense of proportion for a moment.

If it were just that, Lao Huang wouldn't have lost his driving standard. Unfortunately, it seemed like he didn't check the almanac when going out today, and a carriage from the Duke of the State's mansion insisted on squeezing past him, and Lao Huang didn't pay attention, causing such a result.

"Master, it was the carriage from the Duke of the State's mansion that just passed. The small one had no choice but to avoid it." Lao Huang answered the carriage with a crying face.

"It's the Duke of the State again." Even Li Qingxian, who had a good temper, was a bit angry at this moment.

This wasn't the first time the Duke of the State had made things difficult for him, and today he actually dared to collide with his carriage directly. What was this?

Was this tearing off the mask?

If there weren't a distinguished guest in the carriage, Li Qingxian wouldn't have swallowed this anger.

So what if it's the Empress?

So what if it's the Qing Lian Immortal Mansion? His Li family wasn't made of mud. In fact, if you really trace it, the Li family had some relatives with the Nine Thousand Years Old.

"Ignorant kid, bullying me too much!"

Li Qingxian's face turned blue and red.

Li Xianzhi took a look and didn't pursue it. Instead, he waved his hand and said, "You juniors are just unable to hold your breath. What a big deal, look at how angry you are. If you really can't stand it, go and crush him to death now. I observe that there are no powerhouses in the carriage that just passed, so you should be able to do it." Li Xianzhi said, teasing Li Qingxian.

These stinking officials just think too much.

Back then, he couldn't stand anyone and would just go head-on. Although he died a bit miserably later, he was still a man, wasn't he?

Not like this little old man, dawdling, just making things difficult for himself.

"Senior is joking."

Li Qingxian had black lines on his forehead; this senior was truly a person who feared nothing. Li Qingxian thought that he should stay away from him in the future. ===== CHAPTER 9 =====
