Qin Xiao had also sensed the situation described by Bai Shan. That was indeed the case.
There wasn't much information left on the stone tablet. It was just some simple insights. There wasn't even much basic information.
If he hadn't heard so much from Bai Shan, Qin Xiao wouldn't have understood much about the Immortal Dao's Nine Syllables Mantra.
Just from the information on the stone tablet, his understanding of it was minimal.
To comprehend the 'Lin' word from the stone tablet was way too difficult. It was practically an impossible task.
"Let's not think too much about the 'Lin' word. There's no way to comprehend it." Bai Shan shook her head.
"The 'Lin' word must be a word of truth. It's one of the Nine Syllables. It's the true profoundness of the Immortal Dao. How could it be passed down so easily?"
"It's already very generous of the Heaven Mountain City Lord to leave behind some insights. The might of any single word of the Nine Syllables Mantra is equivalent to a top-notch secret technique. Most importantly, once the Nine Syllables Mantra is combined, it would be a perfected Great Dao. It's an inconceivable supreme state. "
"Therefore, the Nine Syllables Mantra is a priceless treasure to Ancient Sages. With our current realm, it's still too far away for us to think about the Nine Syllables Mantra. "
After hearing so much from Bai Shan, Qin Xiao naturally understood the strength of the Nine Syllables Mantra.
It was indeed a supreme secret technique.
Qin Xiao also knew why the Heaven Mountain City Lord was so strong. It most likely had a lot to do with the 'Lin' word. The Nine Syllables Mantra that could make even Ancient Saint existences strong, causing them to scramble madly for it. Just thinking about it was enough to cause one to yearn for it endlessly.
Of course, there was also a sacred and inviolable feeling.
It had to be said that Qin Xiao's heart was also itching from listening to it. If only he could comprehend a little bit of it.
Of course, the possibility of that was too small. Qin Xiao was only thinking about it. However, he was indeed interested in the 'Lin' word and wanted to understand it properly.
Furthermore, Qin Xiao was also thinking that the Heaven Mountain City Lord must have left behind the insights of the 'Lin' word to guide the future generations, right?
Didn't that mean that through the insights left behind by the Heaven Mountain City Lord, one could also comprehend some of the profound meanings of the Lin mantra?
"Senior Brother White Fan, this stone tablet has been here for countless years. I don't know how many universe epochs it has been here. In such a long period of time, could it be that there hasn't been a single person who has comprehended the profound meaning behind the 'Lin' mantra? "Qin Xiao also asked the same question.
"Yes, there is only one." Bai Shan gave an affirmative answer.
There was only one?
That proved that there was one. That was the key.
Qin Xiao was also moved inexplicably. She looked a little excited and asked quickly, "Who is it? What's the situation? "
Bai Shan said, "Since the establishment of Heaven Mountain City, it has probably been more than 10,000 universe epochs. The Heaven Mountain City Lord can be considered an extremely ancient existence."
"Originally, in such a long period of time, no one was able to comprehend the 'Lin' word from this stone tablet. That was until a hundred epochs ago, when a peerless genius named Xing An comprehended some profound meaning. At that time, it could be said to have shocked the entire Southern Wastelands."
"The Heaven Mountain City Lord took Xing An in as his only direct disciple. It is said that the Heaven Mountain City Lord had high hopes for Xing An and hoped that he could be nurtured well."
"According to historical records, Xing An was indeed an unprecedented genius. He had the feeling of being born out of nowhere. His talent was extraordinary, and he was peerless since ancient times. He was a peerless monster."
"It was even faintly possible that he was the number one genius of the Southern Wastelands universe epoch."
"However, the Heaven Mountain City Lord's hopes for Xing An were not fulfilled. Xing An was stuck at the fourth step of the Celestial Venerable Realm and could not take another step forward. There was no way for him to step onto the ancient path."
"Now that a hundred epochs have passed, he still hasn't stepped onto the ancient path. His potential has almost been exhausted. It is said that the Heaven Mountain City Lord was also rather disappointed in Xing An. "
Qin Xiao was slightly astonished when he heard this. With such good conditions and the title of the number one genius of the Southern Wastelands universe epoch, he was also the first peerless genius to comprehend the profound meaning of the word "Lin" in the past ten thousand epochs.
Logically speaking, for such an unprecedented talent, under the full nurturing of the Heaven Mountain City Lord, there should not be much of a problem for him to step onto the Ancient Road.
However, who would have thought that he would be stuck at the fourth step of the Celestial Venerable Realm, unable to take another step forward.
It sounded rather pitiful. It was no wonder that the Heaven Mountain City Lord was somewhat disappointed.
However, Qin Xiao could not help but wonder if he would be able to step onto the ancient path within a hundred epochs if such good conditions were given to him.
Qin Xiao had such confidence and ambition, but it did not mean that one could succeed just because they were confident.
There were actually many factors that could affect one's success.
However, this was someone else's business, and Qin Xiao could not be bothered to pay attention to it.
What Qin Xiao was concerned about was that someone had comprehended the profound meaning of the word "Lin".
If someone else could do it, then he, Qin Xiao, could do it too.
If someone could do it, then it meant that there was a chance. As long as there was a chance, no matter how small it was, there was still a chance of success. To Qin Xiao, this was enough. It gave him the motivation to give it his all.
"Qin Xiao, don't tell me you really want to comprehend the word" Lin "?" Bai Shan immediately saw through Qin Xiao's thoughts and could not help but ask.
Qin Xiao curled his lips and laughed faintly, saying, "Why, Senior Brother Bai Shan, do you think that I have no chance at all?"
"Cough —" Bai Shan coughed dryly, saying, "It's not that you don't have a chance at all. The possibility does exist. After all, there has only been one person who has comprehended the profound meaning of the word "Lin" in the past ten thousand epochs. Only one. "
"Therefore, you can imagine how difficult it is."
"Countless peerless geniuses have not been able to comprehend it. It's not that I don't believe in your innate comprehension ability, but the situation here is probably not as simple as innate comprehension ability. "
Ten thousand epochs could be said to be incomparably long. At least, it was a period of time that Qin Xiao could not imagine.
One had to know that Qin Xiao had only lived for less than ten million years. It was still too far away from even one epoch, let alone ten thousand epochs.
Furthermore, in the entire Southern Desolation, there were also ten thousand mountain ranges. The area was incomparably huge.
In such a long river of time, the number of peerless geniuses that had appeared was probably innumerable. Even if there were not as many as the hairs on a cow, it should not be too far off.
No matter how monstrous this Xing An was, he should still be alright. There should be one or two of such geniuses in a universe epoch.
However, only he, Xing An, had comprehended the profound meaning of the word "Lin". Innate comprehension ability was one aspect, but fate and creation probably played a very important role as well.
Therefore, some things were indeed not easy to say.
"Let's give it a try. There's no need to think so much. If I get it, I'll be lucky. If I don't, it's my fate. This is nothing. "
"It's not that I feel that the hope is so slim that I don't even have the thought of giving it a try. Since the word "Lin" is so profound and powerful, I feel that there's more or less an opportunity in front of me. There's no harm in giving it a try. "
Qin Xiao pursed his lips and said with a serious face.
Once he had an idea, Qin Xiao would quickly implement it. Once it was implemented, it would not be easily changed.
Bai Shan waved her jade fan and could only say, "Alright, alright. Since you want to give it a try, then give it a try. There's nothing wrong with giving it a try. Just don't put too much thought into it. "
Fairy Purple Chest and Tie Yulong didn't gain much from it, so they retracted their thoughts.
Qin Xiao was about to continue comprehending the stone tablet when an aura filled with hostility surged over.
Qin Xiao turned his head and looked over. He saw five people walking over, and three of them actually knew each other.
They were the Haochu Clan's Haoguihu, core disciple Duan Feng, and Dao Hefeng's brother Dao Hetai.
Qin Xiao didn't recognize the other two. However, he could sense from the powerful aura emanating from them that they were extremely powerful third-step Heavenly Venerates. Their auras were similar to Haoguihu and Duan Feng's. Haoguihu and Duan Feng were both core disciples of the Fu Xiang Immortal Palace.
Although they were also third-step Heavenly Venerates, their strength was above Bai Shan and the other two.
It seemed that the strength of the two third-step Heavenly Venerates was about the same. They were probably core disciples of other immortal sects. In short, they weren't easy to deal with.
The five of them strode over to Qin Xiao. Their auras were extraordinary, and there was a sense of sharpness to them.
Clearly, this hostility came from Haoguihu and Dao Hetai.
Dao Hetai had been humiliated by Qin Xiao before. Dao Hefeng's clone had also been killed by Qin Xiao. The seeds of hatred had already been planted.
It was the same for Haoguihu. Haoguixuan's clone had also been killed by Qin Xiao. There was already a deep grudge between them. Hence, it was normal for the two of them to be hostile when they saw Qin Xiao.
Moreover, it seemed like there were people supporting them today. This made them even more arrogant.
Seeing Haoguihu and the others, Bai Shan's brows furrowed. Naturally, she could sense that they weren't friendly.
Previously, at the Fu Xiang Immortal Palace, both the Dao Clan and the Haochu Clan didn't dare to make a move on Qin Xiao. However, the two clans hated Qin Xiao to the core. They had always wanted to find an opportunity to deal with Qin Xiao.
This time, in the Heaven Mountain City, it was obviously the best opportunity to do so.
"Hehe, Qin Xiao. What a coincidence to meet you guys here." Haoguihu laughed coldly as he walked over.
That pair of sharp tiger-like eyes stared fixedly at Qin Xiao, like a venomous snake staring at its prey, ready to bite Qin Xiao to death at any time.
"What's the saying again? Enemies often cross paths, right?"
"I didn't expect to meet you in the Heaven Mountain City. It seems like the heavens have given me a chance. "
"Since we've encountered each other here, it's time for us to settle our debt."
Haoguihu's lips curled into a sinister smile. This was an excellent opportunity for him. If he didn't grab hold of this opportunity, he wouldn't have another chance to deal with Qin Xiao when he returned to the Fu Xiang Immortal Palace.
Dao He Tai also said coldly, "It's time to settle our scores. I've already endured for more than a million years. If I continue to endure, I'm afraid my blood will run cold. "
Both of them were full of fighting spirit. It seemed like they wouldn't let Qin Xiao off so easily.
"Haoguihu, Dao He Tai, what are you trying to do?" Bai Shan was a little angry. She said, "We're all disciples of the Fu Xiang Immortal Palace. As fellow disciples, shouldn't we be united when we're outside? Don't you think it's too much to fight here? "
"Do you want others to see the Fu Xiang Immortal Palace as a joke? Fellow disciples killing each other. Aren't you afraid of being laughed at? "
"Now that fellow daoists from all the mountains have gathered here, do you want to make the Fu Xiang Immortal Palace the laughing stock of the Southern Wilderness for your own selfish reasons? Aren't you afraid of being punished by the Palace Lord? "
