Chapter 2109: Heavenly Grade Secret Manual

"The name is real!" He Pingsheng said seriously, "There's nothing fake about this point!"

"Oh..." Tao Yaoyao nodded, "Knowing your name is enough!"

"Husband... Fellow Daoist He..." She was somewhat apprehensive, yet also shy, a layer of crimson covering her face and neck: "Actually... I made a vow long ago that I would not marry in this lifetime!"

"I dedicated my entire life's energy to the clan!"

"Today, entering into a sham marriage with you, whether real or fake, I will never seek another man again!"

He Pingsheng said, "There's no need for that!"

"A person's thoughts always change. Once your cultivation reaches the God King Realm, who knows, you might change!"

"No..." Tao Yaoyao was incomparably firm, "Regardless, I never will!"

"So... Fellow Daoist He can treat me as a true Dao Companion, it's fine!"

"You can do whatever you want!"

He Pingsheng understood the meaning of the woman before him, but he remained unmoved, merely saying blandly, "Good, I understand!"

Hum hum hum...

While perfunctorily responding, He Pingsheng activated his Dongxu True Eye divine ability, scanning over Tao Yaoyao.

Because the God King Realm had just been mentioned, he wanted to see how many Divine Apertures Tao Yaoyao had opened, and whether she could cultivate to the God King Realm.

The next moment, Tao Yaoyao was laid bare before He Pingsheng.

Beneath skin as delicate as jade, flesh, blood, meridians, and veins were clearly visible.

He Pingsheng saw that this woman had opened a total of twenty-four Divine Apertures.

Not few, but not particularly many either.

Twenty-one Divine Apertures can steadily reach the God King Realm; twenty-seven Divine Apertures can steadily reach the God Emperor Realm.

She opened an in-between twenty-four Divine Apertures.

This number of Divine Apertures is the same as Luo Bingyao and Xin Baobao.

Three fewer than Yu Si's twenty-seven.

Whether she can ultimately cultivate to the God Emperor Realm depends entirely on fortune.

If her fortune defies the heavens, there is a chance.

If she has no great fortune in this life, she can only stop at the God King Realm.

But for a clan like the Tao Clan, Tao Yaoyao, possessing twenty-four Divine Apertures, is still a Heaven's Chosen Daughter.

"What are you looking at?" Tao Yaoyao felt as if a knife had scraped across her skin, and asked He Pingsheng shyly.

He Pingsheng said, "I'm looking at your number of Divine Apertures!"

"Ah?" Tao Yaoyao was instantly slightly surprised, "This can even be seen? Our Old Ancestor can't even see it!"

He Pingsheng said, "That's right. Under normal circumstances, a person's Divine Apertures are hidden. If one doesn't say it themselves, outsiders naturally cannot know, unless using a special divine artifact or divine array to test!"

"However, I have a divine ability here that can see through another's number of Divine Apertures!"

Tao Yaoyao said, "I have twenty-four Divine Apertures!"

As she spoke, there was still a trace of slight pride in her tone.

He Pingsheng said, "Yes, I saw it!"

Tao Yaoyao asked curiously again, "Fellow Daoist He, you are... how many Divine Apertures?"

He Pingsheng currently displayed a Divine Aperture count of eighteen; if someone used a divine ability to look, it would be clear at a glance.

But Tao Yaoyao didn't have this kind of divine ability, so she couldn't see.

He Pingsheng thought for a moment, then said, "Just slightly more than you!"

"How many is 'slightly more'?" Tao Yaoyao couldn't help but ask curiously.

He Pingsheng originally wanted to vaguely gloss over it, but ultimately couldn't withstand Tao Yaoyao's persistence, so he dropped the number twenty-seven.

Anyway, it was just a random made-up number.

At the same time, He Pingsheng also used the divine ability of the 【Hidden Dragon Concealed Traces Art】, modifying his own Divine Aperture count to twenty-seven.

This way, once someone scans with a divine ability, the result obtained is twenty-seven.

"For the next ten years, you'll just stay at our place!" Tao Yaoyao said, "It's safer this way; otherwise, the Gongsun Clan people might come looking for trouble again!"

He Pingsheng nodded, "Alright... that, Senior Li Yueren, who exactly is she to you?"

He was very curious; this Tao Clan's Clan Master, how come she's surnamed Li?

Tao Yaoyao said, "He is the Dao Companion of my Tao Clan's ancestor. We Tao Clan descendants, tracing back to the root, are actually all her descendants!"

Put that way, He Pingsheng understood.

"I have one more impertinent request!" He Pingsheng said.

Tao Yaoyao said, "Speak. As long as it's something I can do, no need for you to ask politely!"

He Pingsheng said, "I want to look at your clan's collected scriptures on arrays. Um... if possible, I want to try all the scriptures!"

Previously, He Pingsheng had strengthened the cultivation method of that ordinary Shengchazi into a supreme-grade one. The cultivation method inside changed as well, no longer requiring raw souls, but using an array called 【Blood Transmutation Soul Formation】 to cultivate.

The problem is, he currently doesn't have the Blood Transmutation Soul Formation array.

The Tao Clan is a major clan, and has continued for many years. The clan's collected scriptures on arrays certainly aren't few, so he wanted to see if there were this type of array or information.

"You wait!"

Tao Yaoyao took off the bright red wedding dress she was wearing, revealing the light cyan Daoist robe underneath, then rushed out the door.

After the time of Half an Incense Stick, she returned, placing hundreds of jade slips clattering down before He Pingsheng.

"Here... these are all our Tao Clan's jade slips... all about arrays..."

"The highest is Earth Grade Upper Rank!"

"The highest arrays can reach Sixth Rank... there are no higher ones!"

He Ping Sheng nodded and said, "Alright... let me take a look then!"

"Huh?" Tao Yaoyao said, "You're actually going to look!"

He Ping Sheng asked, "Yeah, if I wasn't going to look, why would I ask you for it?"

Tao Yaoyao pouted her little mouth: "But... today is our wedding night!"

He Ping Sheng smiled bitterly and shook his head, then took a deep breath: "What Daoist method do you cultivate? Is it a fire-element Daoist method?"

He remembered that Tao Yaoyao once had a crimson-red sword.

Tao Yaoyao nodded: "Yes!"

"Hmm..." He Ping Sheng fished a jade slip from his person and said, "This is for you, it might be of use to you!"

"This is a fire-attribute cultivation technique!"

"Also!" He took out another jade slip: "This one records two fire-attribute divine abilities."

"One is offense, one is defense!"

"You can cultivate both!"

"Oh..." Tao Yaoyao curled her lip, picked up the jade slip absent-mindedly and glanced at it, then shrieked in shock: "God Fire Expanding Sun Technique?"

"Heaven-rank... supreme grade?"

"Hiss hiss hiss... these two fire divine abilities are also heaven-rank supreme grade?"

"This... this this this..."

Tao Yaoyao was already so shocked she didn't know what to do.

In one breath she obtained three top-tier techniques and divine abilities.

This... this was far more than what Aunt got from trading with him back then.

With these three secret manuals, our Tao clan becoming number one on Peach Mountain is within sight.

"Go on..." He Ping Sheng waved his hand: "Go comprehend them, don't come disturb me anymore!"

"Oh..." Tao Yaoyao hurriedly picked up the three jade slips and stood up.

He Ping Sheng said: "Wait!"

Tao Yaoyao turned her head bashfully: "What... did Husband change his mind, or do you want me to keep you company?"

He Ping Sheng said: "I heard your aunt say your mouth is tight; keep these three secret manuals to yourself, don't tell anyone, and don't spread them outside!"
