Under the shocked gazes of all the cultivators, Chu Chen seemed to have awakened from a long dream.
He opened his eyes slightly, and the confusion in his eyes disappeared in a flash. Then, it turned into an incomparable calmness and indifference, as if no matter what happened, it would not affect him in the slightest.
"My Zither Heart, what kind of zither art should I practice?"
Ignoring the monster-like gazes of the crowd, Chu Chen minded his own business and asked.
Shi Yuyan's gaze was incomparably deep. She fixed her gaze on the youth who had brought her countless surprises. She thought that he had revealed his trump card time and time again, but he always had secrets.
She shook her head and sighed. "I haven't completely thought about what kind of zither art you want to practice. At the beginning, you should practice the 'Basic Practice Chart' first. "
Chu Chen nodded with a blank look on his face.
He knew nothing about the Dao of the Zither, so he could only follow whatever Shi Yuyan said.
However, the 'Basic Practice Chart' sounded like an introductory teaching material.
When Chu Chen returned to his jade stool and sat down, the other cultivators present silently distanced themselves from him.
The zither music they had sensed earlier was simply too terrifying. The terrifying Zither Heart that could shatter the heavens and shatter the earth and destroy all things could almost kill everyone!
The test continued.
The feminine youth dressed in red, with an incomparably handsome and fair complexion, who was a hundred times more beautiful than a woman, walked to the stone table and sat down.
His posture was incomparably graceful. When he sat there and held his breath in concentration, he was like a peerless beauty meditating.
His peerless appearance made several female cultivators feel ashamed of their inferiority.
He closed his eyes and calmed his mind. Suddenly, a clear melody wrapped in boundless Yin Qi rushed out.
Faintly, the surroundings seemed to suddenly become incomparably gloomy and cold, as if they had entered the netherworld from the mortal world.
The gloomy and cold aura was filled with faint wailing sounds, as if evil spirits imprisoned in the depths of hell were wailing in pain and madly cursing.
If this gloomy and cold zither music sounded at any other time, it would most likely make everyone present tremble in fear.
However, after experiencing the baptism of Chu Chen's terrifying zither music, he didn't feel anything when he heard this sinister zither music.
The red-clothed youth pursed his lips tightly and sighed softly.
"Your Yin Qi is too strong. Because the cultivation method you cultivate contains Yin Qi, although you can't detect it on the surface, the inside of your soul has already been injured by the Yin Qi. If this goes on for a long time, the consequences will be endless. Even if you break through the barrier of your cultivation, you may be taken advantage of by your inner demons and fall into the Nether Ghost Path."
Shi Yuyan's face was cold as she looked at the handsome man in red.
To be honest, among all the people present, only her beauty could surpass this man's, which gave people a strange feeling.
"I have a song here called 'Chong Yang Tune'. It can soothe the mind and draw in the pure Yang energy of heaven and earth to help balance the Yin energy in your body and nourish your organs."
"Thank you, Guqin Master." The man in red cupped his hands, his expression full of gratitude.
One test after another, Duan Qing was the last one to sit in front of the jade table to test his Zither Heart.
After he sat down, the zither music was grand and vast, open and upright, and a vast and righteous aura burst forth.
This made Chu Chen a little surprised. Seeing this kid try his best to get close to Shi Yuyan and even ostracize the other men, he didn't expect his Zither Heart to be so righteous.
It could only be said that Shi Yuyan was a famous young assassin!
Shi Yuyan recommended a song called 'Sea Sky Attraction' to Duan Qing. It was said that this song could open up one's mind and allow one to be magnanimous.
Hearing this, everyone laughed. Duan Qing's Zither Heart didn't have any major problems. He was full of righteousness, but he was not magnanimous enough.
Shi Yuyan's words had truly seen through his nature at a glance.
After giving the instructions, Shi Yuyan took out a few thin zither music scores from her Storage Ring and handed them to everyone present. Sea Sky Attraction, Chong Yang Tune, Calm Waves Tune, Spring Sun Tune … each of the zither music scores was simple and unadorned. Just by looking at them, one could tell that they were not ordinary.
The only thing that was given to Chu Chen was a thin piece of paper. It was just a very ordinary piece of rice paper. On it were some of the most basic symbols and finger techniques used when playing the zither. It could not be considered a musical score at all.
What a difference in treatment!
Chu Chen smiled helplessly, but the cultivators beside him all had great reactions.
"Sir Guqin Master, the things written here are too profound. I can't understand them!"
"My eyes are dark. These symbols are too difficult!"
The cultivators picked up the zither music scores and excitedly flipped through them. However, when they looked at them, many of them became distressed.
The hot-tempered Young Miss Zhao was the first to cry out.
Only Chu Chen looked at the basic zither music scores with great interest. If he didn't come into contact with it, he wouldn't understand it.
After scanning with his powerful soul power, he could at least comprehend the zither intent. This basic practice tune was very suitable for him.
"Don't worry if you can't understand it. You've just comprehended the zither heart. If you want to practice a zither dao that suits you, now is not the time. As the saying goes, if a worker wants to do a good job, he must first sharpen his tools. The first thing you need to do is to create your own zither."
Shi Yuyan indifferently gave the next step.
"Create a zither?"
When these words fell, all the cultivators were stunned. Young Miss Zhao even shouted in dissatisfaction, "Sir Guqin Master, we're here to learn the zither. We don't want to do this kind of hard work."
Some of the cultivators also nodded in agreement.
"Sir Guqin Master, if you don't have enough zithers in your hands? If that's the case, I'll take care of everyone's zithers. I'll go to the market and buy everyone's zithers! "
Young Miss Zhao's generosity didn't cause any change in Shi Yuyan's expression. She was still as cold as the moon.
"You won't be able to buy everyone's natal zithers. Famous zithers have spirits. A true zither master must have their own natal zither."
Shi Yuyan's voice was as light as the wind, but everyone heard it in their hearts.
"Create it with your own hands. Then, in the years to come, you'll have to constantly practice with your natal zither and become familiar with it. Only then will you be able to reach the realm of becoming one with the zither."
All the cultivators were moved. They didn't expect there to be such a thing to learn the zither.
It was said that in ancient times, some sword dao sects also had this saying. Every disciple had to cultivate their own natal sword. As their cultivation deepened, their natal sword would become more powerful.
In the end, even a sword made of ordinary iron could transform into a divine sword if it became one with the cultivator's sword.
"Creating a zither won't be that easy."
Just when most of the people were ready to make a move and were filled with hope, the ridiculously handsome man in red had a rather solemn expression on his face.
Chu Chen couldn't help but curse in his heart. Of course it wouldn't be easy. It would be very difficult, and there was a high chance of death.
