Chapter 654 - 648: Celestial Heart Dao Planting Technique
Xi Huang understood Wa Huang, and he could predict that there must be something wrong with the Great Five Elements Reversal Divine Skill.
However, what exactly was wrong, Xi Huang did not know.
"Did you leave some measures in the Great Five Elements Reversal Divine Skill?" Xi Huang probed.
For Wa Huang, there was no need to hide things from her own brother.
"Of course!"
"Peacock Great Ming King is unruly. To subdue him, certain measures are necessary."
"I’ve left the Celestial Heart Dao Planting Technique within the Great Five Elements Reversal Divine Skill. As long as he practices it, as his cultivation deepens, my Dao Seed will be planted."
"Once the Dao Seed is planted, he will have no choice but to follow me and heed my commands!" Wa Huang said proudly.
Whether it be the Demon Lord, Wa Huang, or the Buddha, they surely have ways to control their disciples.
However, compared to the strong-handed methods of the Demon Lord and the Buddha,
Wa Huang’s methods are more gentle, adept at controlling others without them noticing.
Those controlled by Wa Huang are not only unaware but will even feel grateful to and obey Wa Huang.
This method of subtly changing others’ minds is indeed terrifying.
Xi Huang naturally knew the power of Wa Huang’s Celestial Heart Dao Planting Technique. With Peacock Great Ming King’s current state, once the Dao Seed is planted, there’s no way to remove it.
Or rather, until reaching Tier One, it is impossible to remove Wa Huang’s Dao Seed.
Sometimes, Xi Huang even wondered if he himself had been planted with Wa Huang’s Dao Seed.
Otherwise, why did he always try his utmost, sparing no effort to help her?
But Xi Huang quickly convinced himself.
He is Wa Huang’s brother, born together with Wa Huang in the Void.
As a brother, what reason does he need to help his sister?
Helping her is only right.
Wa Huang is my sister, my dearest sister.
She would never use the Dao Seed to control me; my help is voluntary.
After convincing himself, Xi Huang asked Wa Huang again: "What if he realizes there’s something wrong with the Great Five Elements Reversal Divine Skill and refuses to practice it?"
The Celestial Heart Dao Planting Technique, although formidable, also has its drawbacks.
That is, it can only be hidden within other cultivation techniques, allowing the target to condense it themselves during practice.
It cannot be forcefully implanted into someone’s body.
Therefore, Wa Huang’s plan’s success relies on Peacock Great Ming King going forth to practice the Great Five Elements Reversal Divine Skill.
If Peacock Great Ming King does not practice, Wa Huang’s plan would fall apart.
"Impossible!"
"The Great Five Elements Reversal Divine Skill perfectly aligns with his cultivation; he won’t be able to refuse it!"
"I have deeply integrated the Celestial Heart Dao Planting Technique with the Great Five Elements Reversal Divine Skill, and with his ability, he absolutely cannot detect it," Wa Huang confidently stated.
To Peacock Great Ming King, the Great Five Elements Reversal Divine Skill was like a reclusive man receiving a visit from Liu Yifei — he simply couldn’t refuse it.
When Wa Huang presented the Great Five Elements Reversal Divine Skill, she was already certain of taking in Peacock Great Ming King.
After their conversation, Xi Huang and Wa Huang collectively turned their gazes toward the water screen, wanting to see Peacock Great Ming King’s next move.
To see if he would practice the Great Five Elements Reversal Divine Skill.
....
...
In the side hall, after thoroughly studying the Great Five Elements Reversal Divine Skill, Peacock Great Ming King did not find anything unusual.
"No problem?"
"Impossible, right? How could Wa Huang be so kind-hearted?"
"Most likely it’s because my realm is too low to see through Wa Huang’s methods."
"Should I practice this Great Five Elements Reversal Skill or not?" Peacock Great Ming King hesitated.
After much consideration, Peacock Great Ming King decided to practice the Great Five Elements Reversal Divine Skill.
If he didn’t practice it, Wa Huang would surely be suspicious of him, making things more difficult.
For now, he could only rely on Yin Celestial Son.
After all, Yin Celestial Son had also left some preparations on Peacock Great Ming King.
Wa Huang left measures within the Great Five Elements Reversal Divine Skill, and Yin Celestial Son also left measures in Peacock Great Ming King’s body.
Thus, it became a contest within Peacock Great Ming King’s body between Yin Celestial Son and Wa Huang.
As long as Yin Celestial Son’s measures could counter Wa Huang’s, Peacock Great Ming King had nothing to worry about.
Soon, Peacock Great Ming King began methodically practicing the Great Five Elements Reversal Divine Skill.
...
...
Main hall.
In the pavilion.
"Hahaha!"
"Hahaha!" Seeing Peacock Great Ming King begin to cultivate the Great Five Elements Reversal Divine Skill, Wa Huang couldn’t help but laugh: "As expected, everything is just as I anticipated."
"Peacock Great Ming King has fallen into my trap, and soon enough, he will become a sharp blade in my hand."
"Buddha, Demon Lord, you made a wrong step, and you’ll continue to make mistakes. Once I wield this sharp blade, you’ll never catch up to me."
The Four Great Primordial Spirits had been stuck in the current realm for far too long.
In fact, they had been trapped in this realm for a time even longer than the existence of Heaven and Earth.
Eons without progress led them to despair.
They knew their opportunity was not in the Void but among the worlds.
After countless years and attempts, they always returned empty-handed.
This time, Wa Huang felt this was the closest she had come to success.
With the Human King absent, although there was the Yin Celestial Son, in Wa Huang’s view, he was an upstart, not comparable to them.
Now, with Heaven and Earth’s powers at their weakest, it was the best time for her to gather the Power of Faith.
The Power of Faith available between Heaven and Earth was limited.
It may not even be enough for all Four Great Primordial Spirits to advance.
Now, being one step ahead of the Demon Lord and Buddha meant they could only eat her leftovers.
The only uncertainty for Wa Huang was the Rebirth and Reincarnation of the Daoist Ancestor.
His path differed from Wa Huang’s, and she did not know how far he had progressed.
...
.....
In the side hall.
As Peacock Great Ming King was cultivating the Great Five Elements Reversal Divine Skill, he suddenly heard the voice of Yin Celestial Son in his mind.
"Something’s wrong!"
"There’s too much, too much!" Yin Celestial Son’s voice sounded in Peacock Great Ming King’s mind: "Continue your cultivation; someone is watching you, don’t show any anomaly."
"If you have questions, ask internally, I can hear you."
Hearing Yin Celestial Son’s words, Peacock Great Ming King did not dare stop his cultivation.
As he cultivated the Great Five Elements Reversal Divine Skill, he internally asked: "What’s too much?"
"The cultivation technique, there’s something more in it!"
"It seems mixed with another technique, one that confounds the mind," Yin Celestial Son answered.
This cultivation technique had a problem, activating the measures left by Yin Celestial Son.
Naturally, it also alerted Yin Celestial Son.
