After He Yiming stepped into the Xiantian Realm, he had seen a total of two Xiantian Realm experts, and the one in front of him was undoubtedly the third.
When he walked slowly into the pavilion, he could not help but be slightly stunned.
Whether it was Ting Shiguang from the Fire Crow Kingdom or Lu Xinwen, the Bloody Butcher from the Jinlin Kingdom, they were all dignified people. However, the face of the Protector of the Tian Luo Kingdom was a little comical.
In fact, Master Shui Xuan Jin's face was rather plump, and his eyes were also bright and full of spirit. However, he had a pair of huge ears on his head. This pair of extraordinarily large ears were like palm-leaf fans, and they actually fluttered slightly with the wind in the pavilion.
However, He Yiming immediately calmed himself down and bowed deeply. "Greetings, Brother Shui."
After interacting with Ting Shiguang and Lu Xinwen, he already knew that the interactions between Xiantian Realm experts were not based on their seniority, but on their strength.
As long as one could step into the Xiantian Realm, one could talk to experts of the same level as them.
Shui Xuan Jin stood up and looked deeply at He Yiming. He suddenly sighed and said, "Brother He is really young."
He Yiming could hear the lamentation in his sigh, and it was obvious that he was feeling emotional. He looked up in surprise and took a few serious glances, and his face could not help but change slightly.
Shui Xuan Jin asked in surprise, "Brother He, you actually saw through it?"
He Yiming hesitated for a moment, then shook his head and said, "I didn't see through it, Brother Shui, you're overthinking."
When he said this, he could not help but be a little insincere. In fact, when he looked carefully, he had already noticed that the vitality in Shui Xuan Jin's body seemed to be disappearing at an extremely slow speed.
He Yiming could feel a strong vitality from the two Xiantian Realm experts he had met, and that feeling was like the feeling of all living things growing in spring.
He knew that this was a kind of aura produced by the strong vitality of the Xiantian Realm experts, and only experts of the same level could clearly sense it.
However, this strong vitality in Shui Xuan Jin's body seemed to be gradually withering, as if spring was far away, summer was over, autumn leaves were falling, and winter was coming.
Shui Xuan Jin laughed heartily and said, "Brother He, your eyesight is really good. It is indeed beyond my expectations. However, you don't have to hide it. I am already 212 years old this year, and I don't have many years left. "
A trace of embarrassment immediately appeared on He Yiming's face. However, he admired Lin Fan in his heart. Lin Fan clearly knew that he didn't have many years left to live, but he was still so cheerful. This point could be sensed from his clear eyes. It was indeed very rare.
Shui Xuanjin pointed and said, "Brother He, please sit."
He Yiming sat down in front of him. At this moment, he already had a very good impression of this 200-year-old old man. However, when he turned his gaze, it still fell on Shui Xuan Jin's big ears.
Shui Xuan Jin saw his gaze and couldn't help but smile. Then, the pair of ears on his head suddenly shrank miraculously, returning to the size of an ordinary person in an instant.
He Yiming's eyes widened. He immediately understood and said, "What a magical cultivation technique. May I ask Brother Shui, what kind of cultivation technique is this?"
"This cultivation technique is called Clairaudient. It is a Xiantian cultivation technique collected by the Tian Luo Royal Family." Shui Xuan Jin smiled and said, "This is an extremely rare Xiantian auxiliary cultivation technique, but it is not something that anyone can learn."
"Why?"
"Because this cultivation technique does not belong to any of the five elements. If you want to learn it, you must have the talent to cultivate wind-based cultivation techniques," Shui Xuan Jin said calmly.
He Yiming's eyes lit up and said, "Are there any other cultivation techniques besides the five elements?"
"Of course." Shui Xuanjin took a deep breath as if he wanted to suck in all the fresh air around him. He said: "Nature is ever-changing, just like the Grand Dao is ever-changing, each one different from the other. In this world, there are as many attributes as there are powers. The power of the five elements is the foundation of all powers, but it does not represent all powers. The power of wind is only one of the myriad paths of the Great Dao.
He Yiming's eyes shone brightly. In the past, even his grandfather, He Quan Ming, had never said anything like this to him. However, Shui Xuan Jin's words made him feel enlightened. In just an instant, he seemed to have a deeper understanding of the Great Dao of nature.
This was especially so for the wind and rain that he had comprehended.
He even had a feeling that he could break through the membrane in front of him at any time. He almost stood up and started practicing his fist technique.
However, he still calmed himself down and bowed respectfully to Shui Xuan Jin.
It was indeed the right decision to come to the capital this time. Just this sentence alone had benefited him a lot.
Seeing He Yiming's attitude, Shui Xuan Jin was a little startled and said in surprise, "Brother He, did your teacher never say this before?"
Indeed, although this principle was not useful for Houtian experts, it was the most basic principle for Xiantian experts. As long as one had a teacher, the moment one's disciple stepped into the Xiantian realm, this most basic principle would be passed down.
He Yiming blushed and said, "Brother Shui, I don't have a teacher."
"You don't have a teacher?" Shui Xuan Jin pondered for a moment and said, "But as far as I know, Brother He's family seems to have a very deep relationship with the Hengshan Sect."
He Yiming immediately knew that Lin Taoli must have revealed this information.
He smiled and said, "My ancestor was once an in-name disciple of the Hengshan Sect. However, he left the sect forty years ago and has yet to return to Hengshan Sect. Therefore, I'm not from Hengshan Sect yet."
Shui Xuan Jin's expression changed a few times and he muttered, "If that's the case, then how did Brother He step into the Xiantian Realm?"
He Yiming spread out his hands and said, "I used the Way of Mutual Engendering to increase my internal strength. In the end, I broke through the limit and stepped into the Xiantian Realm."
Shui Xuan Jin's eyes finally revealed a look of shock and said, "Brother He stepped into the Xiantian Realm on his own and not by consuming the Xiantian Golden Elixir?"
"Yes." He Yiming smiled honestly and thought for a moment before saying, "I've also heard of the Xiantian Golden Elixir, but unfortunately, I've never seen it before. However, to be honest, advancing to the Xiantian Realm is much harder than advancing one's internal strength. "
The muscles on Shui Xuan Jin's face twitched slightly. After a long time, he finally sighed and said, "Brother He, I originally thought that you were like those young people from the super sects, possessing extremely high talent but relying on the Golden Elixir to increase your strength. However, I now know that I've greatly underestimated Brother He. "
He Yiming was slightly startled and asked tentatively, "Brother Shui, could the super sects you mentioned be the secluded sects like Hengshan Sect?"
Shui Xuan Jin laughed involuntarily and said, "Hengshan Sect can indeed be considered as one of the secluded sects, but it has nothing to do with the super sects." Seeing that He Yiming seemed to be very interested, Shui Xuan Jin waved his hand and said, "Brother He, it's said that you'll still belong to Hengshan Sect in the future. At that time, you'll naturally know the inside story. It's not good for me to tell you."
He Yiming finally gave up on asking, but after thinking for a moment, he still asked, "Brother Shui, do you think that there are also young Xiantian experts in those super sects?"
Shui Xuan Jin hesitated for a moment and said solemnly, "Yes, but although these people are also talented, compared to Brother He, the difference is like heaven and earth."
His words were resolute and decisive, without the slightest bit of hesitation.
Indeed, with He Yiming's age, since he hadn't taken the Golden Elixir, he had completely relied on his own strength to advance to the Xiantian Realm. He didn't dare to say that there wouldn't be anyone in the future, but there was definitely no one in the past.
He Yiming laughed bitterly in his heart. What talent did he have? If it wasn't for the fortuitous encounter at the bottom of the lake that caused an inexplicable change in his physique, how could he have today's achievements?
Shui Xuan Jin sighed and his expression suddenly became serious as he said, "Brother He, since you can see that I doesn't have much time left, then you should also understand the reason why I invited you here."
He Yiming's gaze turned. He didn't expect Shui Xuan Jin to actually make such a request, but after thinking about it, this was in line with his character.
After thinking for a moment, He Yiming said, "Brother Shui, there's something I don't understand, please enlighten me."
"Please speak."
"Why did you agree to become the Master Protector of Tian Luo Kingdom?"
"Because I had a life-and-death relationship with the previous Emperor of Tian Luo Kingdom." Shui Xuan Jin said without hesitation, "Since 130 years ago, I have been the Master Protector of the Tian Luo Kingdom. In these 100 years, I have witnessed the prosperity and development of the Tian Luo Kingdom. From a small county, it has expanded to more than four times its original size. Now that I am old, my bones have become weak. At most, I can only rely on my old reputation to deter the wolves and tigers nearby. "
He sighed deeply and said, "I originally thought that once I died, Tian Luo Kingdom would gradually disappear like the other small kingdoms in the Northwest. But I never expected that a genius master like you would appear at this time. " Speaking up to here, Shui Xuan Jin's eyes gradually lit up and he said with excitement, "So I invited you here, hoping that you can inherit my position and continue to protect Tian Luo Kingdom."
He Yiming's eyes slightly fluctuated. At this moment, the old man in front of him gave him a strange feeling. This Master Shui was like his grandfather, He Yiming. They were both worried about something, and for this matter, they wouldn't be at ease even if they died.
Although their goals were different, there was no difference in their intentions.
Seeing that He Yiming was silent, Shui Xuan Jin slowly said, "Brother He, I know that your future is boundless, but no matter what, He Jia Village is still a citizen of Tian Luo Kingdom. Please reluctantly agree."
He Yiming immediately remembered the conversation he had with his grandfather that day. Wasn't that his grandfather's intention?
Seeing that He Yiming was moved, Shui Xuan Jin's face lit up with joy and he said, "Brother He, I have collected many little things in the past hundred years. If you are interested, why don't you take a look?"
He Yiming's expression changed slightly and he said, "Brother Shui, is there any Xiantian Secret Technique in the treasury of Tian Luo Kingdom?"
Shui Xuan Jin was stunned and said, "There is."
"I would like to take a look at the Xiantian Secret Technique. I wonder if Brother Shui can help me communicate with them."
Shui Xuan Jin laughed and said, "Brother He, this is a small matter. Just say the word and it will be done." He paused for a moment and added, "Actually, as long as you agree to become the Kingdom's Guardian, not to mention the Xiantian Secret Technique in Tian Luo Kingdom, even if it's the entire treasury, you will have 10% of the shares."
He Yiming was a little startled. In order to rope in a Xiantian Ranker, the Tian Luo Kingdom had actually paid such a huge price. This was something that he had never expected.
Shui Xuan Jin laughed a few times and said, "Brother He, there are some things that I shouldn't say. But since you don't have a master, I will say a few words."
"Please speak, Brother Shui."
"Although we Xiantian Realm masters have the Heaven and Earth Pure Qi, which is far from what Houtian Realm cultivators can compare with, our energy is also limited. When choosing Xiantian Secret Techniques, it is best not to be greedy. Instead, you should be able to identify a few of them. " He sighed softly and said, "After all, the Heng Shan Sect is one of the Sects that has been passed down for thousands of years. The treasures inside are definitely much more than the Tian Luo Royal Family. Furthermore, under the guidance of the Elders, it will be easier for you to find the right direction to develop. So even if you see those Xiantian Secret Techniques, it is best to only use them for reference. Don't try to grasp everything in your hands. "
He Yiming was silent for a long time before he finally bowed and said, "Yes, this little brother has learned something."
Shui Xuan Jin waved his hand and said, "Brother He, you don't have to be so polite. This is just a little of what I have learned over the years."
He stood up and said, "Brother He, I will enter the palace and bring three Xiantian Secret Techniques for you to take a look. Even if you want to make a copy, it will not be a problem."
On the contrary, He Yiming hesitated. He muttered to himself for a moment before saying, "Brother Shui, what you said makes sense. I've already decided that I only need the Clairaudient cultivation technique."
A look of relief flashed across Shui Xuan Jin's face. He Yiming had become a Xiantian Realm master at such a young age. Moreover, he was not arrogant and complacent. Instead, he readily accepted the advice of others and listened to others' advice.
This boy's future was really limitless.
At this moment, Shui Xuan Jin also made up his mind. No matter what price he had to pay, he would make He Yiming the Protector of the Kingdom.
※ ※ ※
In a courtyard with beautiful scenery, He Yiming held a book that was not thick in his hand and flipped through it page by page.
Under Shui Xuan Jin's insistence, He Yiming chose to live in his Shaoming Residence. This courtyard was the residence that the old man had personally chosen for He Yiming.
But in addition to him, He Quanxin and He Yitian lived in the Imperial Manor.
Every day, there were countless people who went to the manor to curry favor with them, but He Yiming, who lived in Shaoming Residence, was rarely free. It was not that no one wanted to pay a visit to the new generation Xiantian Realm master, but no one dared to enter Shaoming Residence.
Shui Xuan Jin did not go back on his words. On the same day, he took out the Clairaudient Technique from the Imperial Palace and handed it to He Yiming.
At this moment, He Yiming was holding this strange Xiantian Secret Technique and carefully reading it. He muttered softly and seemed to have gained some insights.
He pondered for a moment, then came to the desk in the middle and began to copy the contents.
Suddenly, there was a slight sound of movement at the door.
The houses here were specially designed and well maintained. The sound of the door opening was almost inaudible. However, for Xiantian Realm masters, even the slightest sound could not escape their ears.
He Yiming did not raise his head and asked casually, "What's the matter?"
Yuan Lixun was the only woman in He Yiming's family who had followed him on the journey and was also the only woman who had been brought into Shaoming Residence by him. In addition, even the servants and maids who were personally instructed by Shui Xuan Jin were asked to leave the courtyard by He Yiming.
After spending some time with Yuan Lixun, both of them had a certain tacit understanding. He Yiming knew that Yuan Lixun would never disturb him when he was reading unless there was something necessary.
A pleasant voice sounded, "Husband, Young Master Lin Taoli is in the outer hall of the courtyard. He wants to see you."
He Yiming nodded slightly, put down the pen in his hand, and said, "He came really quickly. I'll go see him now. I hope he can bring me good news."
Before coming to Shang Jing, He Yiming had vaguely expressed to Lin Taoli that he wanted to take a look at the Lin Family's secret handprint technique.
Although Shui Xuanjin had said that one shouldn't bite off more than one could chew, He Yiming had a special liking for the handprint cultivation technique after learning it. Moreover, one of his strongest martial skills was the handprint cultivation technique. Hence, it wouldn't be too much even if he wanted to learn more.
When they came to the hall, Lin Taoli greeted him respectfully. When they first met, the Lin Family was at the top. But now, their positions had been completely reversed.
Lin Taoli's heart was naturally filled with emotions, but the expression on his face was even more respectful.
After Yuan Lixun served them tea, she bowed slightly and then returned to He Yiming's study. As for their conversation, she would never hear it.
Seeing Yuan Lixun leave, Lin Taoli immediately took out two thick books from his body and placed them flat on the table. He said, "Master He, these are the original and handwritten copies of our Lin family's handprint cultivation methods that have been treasured for many years."
He Yiming's eyes lit up, and he asked in surprise, "What's the difference between these two books?"
Lin Taoli shook his head and said, "This handprint was personally copied by my father. Logically speaking, there shouldn't be any mistakes. But this kind of Xiantian secret technique is of great importance, and there can't be any mistakes. So my father ordered me to bring the original copy together. After Master He has read it, you can return it. "
He Yiming smiled when he heard this. He already understood what Lin Taoli meant.
If it was a handprint, He Yiming might have suspected that they had a secret stash. But since even the original copy was brought, what else could he say?
After thanking Lin Taoli, Young Master Lin left contentedly. He Yiming, on the other hand, sighed in his heart. Ever since he'd advanced to Xiantian, he'd received a lot of favors. If he wanted to return the favor in the future, he'd have to run around a lot.
