Chapter: 6593
Ye Chen was amazed. "People are sometimes not of the same kind. Your mastery of martial arts is truly unparalleled, something I have only seen once in my lifetime."
Song Luoyue laughed at herself. "My martial arts skills may be very strong, but they are still inferior to those of a true cultivator by several dimensions. Just as even the most skilled warrior can't compete with artillery and missiles, I am completely powerless against you, Mr. Ye."
Ye Chen asked her, "So how did you awaken to the Dao? Can you explain the causes and effects clearly?"
Song Luoyue said, "I never thought about myself having a chance to awaken to the Dao, but I knew that in Break Clear, martial arts masters held high positions, while cultivators held even higher ones. As the descendant of a peripheral family, whether male or female, my greatest hope is to become a cultivator and serve Break Clear. Only then can I truly change the fate of my family."
Song Luoyue continued, "It's not difficult for Wu family members to become cultivators. In order to care for their descendants and enhance their survival skills, the Lord will select one or two people with exceptional talent every few years from among the new generation of Wu family children. He will then guide them in awakening to the Dao..."
"It's extremely difficult to awaken to the Dao without external interference. If it weren't for external forces, even if the Wu family can produce one person who awakens to the Dao through their own efforts in a few hundred years, they would have already burned incense in celebration. So, the English master will use his own cultivation and elixirs to help Wu family descendants awaken to the Dao;"
"However, the cost of forcibly helping others awaken to the Dao is very high, even for the English master. He can't truly mass-produce cultivators quickly, and it's basically at an average rate of producing one or two entry-level cultivators every two to three years, which is already considered extreme."
"In addition, most cultivators who are awakened to the Dao through external forces find it difficult to walk the long-term path. They want to become a high-ranking official like the four great dukes, and their requirements for innate talent are extremely high as well."
Song Luoyue continued: "Family members of Song are just tools in the eyes of the English master, meant for transmission and inheritance within the Wu family. She has always been looked down upon. It was only because when I was 16 years old, a high-ranking official from the Wu family came to inspect the suitable young girls from the Song family, and he discovered that I had already entered the mysterious realm. He immediately reported this to the Grand Tutor;"
"The Grand Tutor seemed to have never heard of anyone entering the mysterious realm at the age of 16. He was shocked and immediately reported it to the English master;"
"He told the Grand Tutor to give me a set of mind scripts, allowing me to cultivate on my own, saying that if I can successfully awaken to the Dao, he would accept me as his personal disciple;"
Ye Chen asked him: "You... you relied solely on one set of mind scripts to awaken to the Dao?!"
Just then, Song Luoyue said that she relied on a set of mind scripts to gradually break through to the mysterious realm. If she awakened to the Dao because of one set of mind scripts, it would be somewhat excessive."
Song Luoyue opened her mouth: "Awakening to the Dao is the English master's test for martial arts talents. She has already exhausted her energy and can't use her own strength to help martial arts talents awaken to the Dao. So, a martial arts talent cannot enter her eyes, and the final test is whether they can rely on mind scripts to awaken to the Dao;"
Let me know if you need any further assistance!
As she was saying this, Song Luoyue said again: "After I obtained that heart script, I immediately became aware that this was my only opportunity to escape the fate of being married into the Wu family and simultaneously change the fate of the Song family; therefore, I spent six years in deep contemplation, neglecting food and sleep. It wasn't until two years ago, when I was 22 years old, that I successfully attained enlightenment!"
Lei Chen listened with a dazed expression and couldn't help but say: "Six years is incredibly fast! This speed is unheard of!"
As he spoke, he looked at Song Luoyue and asked: "So, you're now the direct disciple of Wu Feiyun?"
"Not yet," Song Luoyue replied matter-of-factly. "After I attained enlightenment, the Grand Marshal reported this to the English monarch, who possibly didn't think that a young woman from an insignificant branch family would be able to attain enlightenment on her own at such a young age; therefore, she immediately instructed the Grand Marshal to bring me to the Right Army Commandery and begin my true service for the Purification Society. She also wanted to personally meet with me during her inspection of the Right Army Commandery next year and then formally accept me as her direct disciple."
After saying this, Song Luoyue added: "The English monarch's orders were naturally not something the Grand Marshal could ignore; he immediately brought me to the Right Army Commandery and granted me the position of aide. The monarch also sent a person with a fine sword and a small elixir pill to the Right Army Commandery, which was personally handed over to me by the Grand Marshal."
Lei Chen nodded his head and raised his hand to hold up the fine sword, asking: "Is this sword given to you by Wu Feiyun?"
"Yes!" Song Luoyue replied with a nod. "This fine sword contains the mind control array that greatly enhances my combat abilities in real battles, while the small elixir pill provides me with extremely precious spiritual energy."
As she was saying this, Song Luoyue's expression turned slightly melancholic and she said: "However, I never would have thought that the monarch would send a small elixir pill with such powerful spiritual energy. This small elixir pill not only contains spiritual energy but also a more potent toxin that is extremely tyrannical. According to legend, even monks cannot dispel it, and if one doesn't take the antidote within three years, they will certainly die without a doubt!"
Lei Chen listened as Song Luoyue talked about having a strange toxin inside her. Lei Chen immediately used his spiritual energy to probe further, and indeed, the spiritual energy inside Song Luoyue was identical to the strange toxin inside Wu Feiyun's body.
Lei Chen couldn't help but sigh: "Wu Feiyun hasn't even met you yet, and the toxin has already been placed in your body. It's really her style." JrNovels.com
