"So hatred has its benefits?" Naipao said, surprised.
"Naturally, hatred has its benefits as well as its drawbacks. Using hatred to motivate yourself is a benefit of course!" The Master said. "Of course, hatred is one facet, and your potential is quite good as well. That's why you've improved so much!"
"But … Master, now that my meridians are all broken, I …" Naipao's face darkened at the thought of his situation.
"So what if your meridians are broken? It's a good thing! " The Master said. "Do you know why you can't open the jade box for the second stage of the Chrysanthemum Arts?"
"This … Does it have something to do with my meridians?" Naipao wasn't an idiot- he thought of the connection right away.
"The true essence of the Chrysanthemum Treasure Book is that there can be no construction without destruction, and only after destruction can there be construction!" The Head Master said, "This is a very magical cultivation method. When you cultivated the first level, it made you castrate yourself. This is the so-called destruction and then establishment. The second level is the same. If you want to cultivate the second level, according to the records of our Everyday and Every Day Sect, you must also destroy and then establish!"
"Oh? Break and rise? "Naipao paused, a glimmer of hope in his eyes.
"That's right- in order to practice the second stage, you have to lose all your strength. Only when you've lost all your strength and become a normal person can you start practicing the second stage again!" The Master said.
"Really?!" Naipao stood up abruptly, surprised and happy. "So you're saying that this is a blessing in disguise?"
"You could say that!" The Master nodded. "I've been trying to think of a way for you to break and rise! Do you know? When you couldn't open the jade box for the second layer of the mental cultivation method, I was very anxious to help you, but I couldn't! "
"Ah? Why? If that's the case, why didn't you destroy my meridians yourself, making me lose all my strength? "Naipao asked, confused.
"If I were to destroy your meridians with my own hands, would you hate me?" The Master didn't answer Naipao's question, instead asking a question in return.
"How could that be? Master gave me a helping hand, so how could I possibly hate Master? " Naipao shook his head and said sincerely, "Even if you crippled my strength for no reason, I wouldn't hold a grudge against you. After all, I'm a disciple of the sect, and you're the headmaster. You're the one who gave me the chance and strength to train. You can take it back anytime you want, why would I have any complaints?"
"Isn't that it?" Sect Leader Master said, "I've already said it before. When cultivating the Chrysanthemum Treasure Manual, the most important thing is to cultivate it with hatred. If I were the one who did it, would there still be any hatred? Without hatred, how can we achieve our goals? "
"So even this requires hatred?" Naipao still didn't understand, "But why didn't Master tell me earlier? Previously, I didn't open the jade box, so I was very conflicted in my heart! "
"Of course we need hatred!" The Head Master nodded and said, "If I tell you in advance, you may deliberately seek an opportunity to be beaten up, and then the effect of hatred will not be achieved! And now, even if you know, let me ask you, do you have hatred in your heart? Do you want revenge? "
"Yes! Of course! "Naipao nodded and gritted his teeth," I want to tear Lin Yi to pieces! "
"Isn't that it? If I had told you before, and you went to get beaten up, maybe you'd be grateful to the person, maybe even smiling. Why would there be hatred? " The Master said, "This is also why I didn't tell you. I told you to participate in the test, and let fate take its course! Hey, you know, I'm actually more anxious than you in my heart! "
"I see, I understand now!" Naipao said, touched, "Master, you're too good to me!"
"You're my favorite disciple, the pride of our sect- naturally, I have to be good to you!" The Master said, "But, if you want to step into the higher realms of martial arts, don't be in a hurry to get revenge. With hatred in your heart, it will help you grow!"
"But, I promised Liang Bro … I'll get revenge for him as soon as possible!" Naipao said, troubled.
"You can torture him all you want, but don't kill him- not only will you vent your anger, but the hatred in your heart won't go away either." The Master said, "Do you know that once you enter Sky class, both your strength and your lifespan will increase tremendously? You'll even have the chance to enter the path of the heavens to pursue immortality!"
"That's a good idea!" Naipao nodded after a sigh. Helping Pinliang get revenge was his goal, but he was in the sect now, and the Master's words were just as effective as Liang Bro's. This was a good way to deal with the situation, and he'd be able to help Liang Bro vent his anger and increase his strength at the same time. He believed that Liang Bro would be happy to have a strong subordinate for him!
"Alright, I've told you everything that needs to be said. You can go open the second stage of the jade box now!" The Master said, "After that, you can go into closed door training. I won't disturb you any longer. I wish you good luck in mastering the second stage soon!"
"But … I don't even have my strength anymore, can I practice the second stage directly?" Naipao asked, confused.
"What you've lost is only your strength, not your practitioner's arts. Your practitioner's arts and strength are separate!" Sect Leader Grandmaster said, "You must remember, your mental cultivation method is an ancient mental cultivation method, it is different from the mental cultivation methods of ordinary practitioners. Your current Chrysanthemum Treasure Codex is still at the first level, so you can directly cultivate the second level!"
"I understand!" Naipao nodded and said his goodbyes, disappearing from the Master's sight …
The Master, on the other hand, mumbled to himself as he watched Naipao leave, "Naipao, I hope you won't disappoint me! You're the disciple with the highest chance of breaking through Sky class and entering the path of the heavens! I hope that you'll be able to fight for a good spot for us in the Sky class meeting! "
On Ice Mountain, the sky was getting brighter, and Qikun stretched, evidently having a good night's sleep. "With Brother Ling, the number one of Mystic by my side, it's such a good night's sleep. Even in the house, I've never felt so safe!"
"…" Yu Bing was speechless- wasn't this flattery a little too much?
