The next morning.
Lu An sat cross-legged in his room, cultivating. At this moment, he was studying the Exalted Immortal's Technique for two hours every day, as per his promise with Jun.
In reality, Lu An did not follow the agreement completely. During these two hours every day, he was not only studying the Exalted Immortal's Technique, but also the Divine Palm Skill.
In the past, because these two secret manuals were not left to him by the person in the black fog, he did not treat them seriously. When he really calmed down and thought about it every day, he realized that it was just as the person in the black fog said. There were many similarities between these two manuals.
The first sentence of the Divine Palm Skill was, "Use the origin of the heavens, exchange the path of the heavens, and accomplish the heavens." This was similar to the opening of the Exalted Immortal's Technique, "The Eight Ancient Sects, the Ancestor of All Techniques. The Door of Everlasting Life and the Exalted Immortal's Technique were very similar. This was also one of the things that Lu An had been thinking about.
The Exalted Immortal's Technique was the root of all immortal techniques. In fact, half of the book was used to describe what Immortal Qi was, how it was produced, and how to use it. Although Lu An had Immortal Qi, he did not understand the source of Immortal Qi, just like how he did not know what Heavenly Essence was.
The Divine Sovereign Power also used a lot of space to explain the source of power. In fact, it took up more than three-quarters of the entire book. However, the power that the Divine Palm Skill talked about was not Heavenly Essence, Fate Wheel, or Immortal Qi. It was a power that Lu An had never heard of before.
In the Divine Palm Skill, it was called the "origin."
According to the book, the "origin" was the foundation of everything, not Heavenly Essence. Heavenly Essence had different attributes, but the "origin" did not. The "origin" could be said to be the fusion of all attributes. It was a substance that surpassed the eight major attributes. Whether in terms of attack, defense, or healing, the "origin" was not inferior to any other attribute.
Lu An had heard similar words when he first came to Sengoku. This meant that both of them had doubts about Heavenly Essence, but both of them said that their own substance was the origin of the world. However, Immortal Qi and 'Source' were clearly different substances. In other words, although their thoughts were the same, they were both wrong, or at least one of them was wrong.
Either neither of them was the source, or one of them was not the source. However, the man in the black fog had once said that the significance of the Divine Palm Technique was comparable to that of the Exalted Immortal Technique. In other words, the Immortal Qi and the 'source' should be similar. In other words, there was a high probability that both were wrong.
Since they were all wrong, then what was the origin of the world?
This question had troubled Lu An for more than half a year. He had calmed down and thought about it, but he couldn't figure it out. He felt that he wasn't strong enough and didn't know enough about the world. Perhaps only when he could successfully cultivate the Exalted Immortal Technique and the Divine Palm Technique would he be able to improve his consciousness further.
Right now, he didn't have the strength to think so much. He wasn't even a Level 6 Celestial Master.
However, his cultivation of the Exalted Immortal Technique and the Divine Palm Technique was not without progress. On the contrary, he had made a lot of progress. Right now, he could already understand the existence of some Immortal Qi. He could also understand how immortal techniques and Immortal Qi were coordinated. However, his understanding was still far from enough.
Just as Lu An was meditating, his brows suddenly furrowed. He sensed that a woman had walked into his courtyard.
Soon, there was a knock on his door. A gentle voice came from outside and said, "Excuse me, is Young Master Lu in?"
Lu An opened his eyes. After thinking about it, he walked to the door and opened it. What entered his sight was the woman he had seen beside Zhang Yutong before.
"Young Master Lu, my name is Xiao Ni. We've met before." Xiao Ni looked at Lu An and bowed slightly.
"Greetings, Miss." Lu An cupped his hands and said politely, "Is there something you need, Miss?"
"Yes … Can I go in and talk?" Xiao Ni asked softly.
Lu An looked at Xiao Ni, who had a completely different personality from Zhang Yutong. He thought about it and said, "Miss, please come in."
Xiao Ni walked into the house and found a chair to sit down. Lu An also sat down and asked, "What's the matter, Miss?"
"It's about the Young Master." Xiao Ni looked at Lu An and said softly, "You also know the relationship between me and the Young Master … But I know that the Young Master was not such a person. It's only because … Because the Sect Head abandoned the Madam, that the Young Master's personality changed."
Lu An was startled when he heard this. He did not know why Xiao Ni would say these things to him. He quickly said, "Miss, you've misunderstood. I have nothing to do with the Young Master. There's no need for me to know about her matters."
"Young Master, please let me finish." Xiao Ni looked at Lu An and said softly.
"…" Lu An frowned when he heard this. He was really not interested in this kind of thing. Moreover, he felt that if he knew about it, there would be more trouble.
"Actually, I know that the reason why the Young Master likes women is because she likes men more than she really likes me. Or it could be said that she is forcing herself to be with me." Xiao Ni said softly, "In order to prove that the men in this world are fickle and lecherous people, she once caught a lot of men to make the same oath as you. Many of them were people with families, but the result was …."
"…" Lu An frowned and did not say anything.
"As you can imagine, you're the first one to pass the test." Xiao Ni looked at Lu An and said softly, "In the past few months, I've seen with my own eyes how she doubted your success, and later how she could not forget you. Although the two of you were only together for one night, but she still remembers you in her heart. "
"This has nothing to do with me." Lu An directly interrupted Xiao Ni's words, took a deep breath and said seriously, "I feel sorry for the Young Master's experience, but no matter what kind of feelings she has for me, it's all the same to me. Miss, please don't waste your breath. How she is has nothing to do with me. "
"…"
Xiao Ni looked at Lu An with a surprised expression. She even found it hard to believe. She did not understand why this man would be so cold-blooded. He actually did not care about a woman who might like him.
"Miss, please go back." Lu An got up and said in a deep voice, "Today's matter, I will pretend that I have never heard of it. I will not mention it to anyone. Miss, please rest assured that I won't see you out."
Seeing Lu An so determined to see her out, the astonishment and disappointment on Xiao Ni's face became even more obvious. She got up, slightly bowed and said, "I'm sorry to disturb you."
With that, Xiao Ni turned around and left.
Looking at Xiao Ni's departure, Lu An went to the door and closed it. He frowned. He did not understand why Xiao Ni came here.
He did not understand why, whether it was Zhang Yutong or this girl, both of them were so focused on him. They thought that if they liked someone else, then that person should fall in love with them at first sight. That other people should do things according to their ideas. This was simply unreasonable.
Perhaps they were born noble, so they had this kind of idea that they should have whatever they wanted. But for Lu An, this kind of idea was completely unreasonable. Therefore, he did not even want to listen to Xiao Ni's words. Because every word she said would only make him more and more upset.
He sat cross-legged again and continued to cultivate, calming his mind. However, not long after, he frowned again because he sensed that another person had appeared in his courtyard. However, from the other party's aura, it should be a disciple of the Revered Heaven Sect.
Sure enough, there was a knock on the door, followed by a voice outside, "City Lord Lu, Sect Master wants to discuss something with you!"
Lu An's body shook, and he immediately opened his eyes and took a deep breath. After so many annoying things, the thing that he really cared about had finally come.
He immediately got up, sorted out his thoughts, and said to the door, "Got it, I'll go now."
With that, Lu An got up and left the room, and went straight to Zhang Yun's study. The door of the study was wide open, and Zhang Yun was sitting inside. Other than Zhang Yun, there was no one else.
Seeing this, Lu An's heart sank. Since there was no one in the room, it meant that Zhang Yun should not have told him about this. In other words, there was still room for discussion.
Lu An took a deep breath and walked to the door of the study. He knocked on the door and said, "Junior Lu An greets Sect Master Zhang."
Hearing this, Zhang Yun raised his head and looked at Lu An. He already knew that Lu An would come, so he pointed to a chair and said, "Sit."
"Thank you, Sect Master," Lu An said politely and walked to the chair and sat down. Then, Zhang Yun waved his hand, and the door of the study immediately closed. At the same time, a lightning barrier appeared, completely enveloping the inside of the study.
Zhang Yun looked at Lu An and didn't say anything for a few breaths of time. Then, he took a deep breath, frowned, and said in a deep voice, "It's not impossible for me to help you, but I want you to give me three Black Water Diamond Pills!"
