Chapter 514 - 234: Chen Family’s World Discussion? Usage Conditions?
Dragon and Tiger Mountain.
The Celestial Master and several mages all felt awkward.
Originally, nobody could do it, so there was no problem with their announcement. Everyone understood that the Chen Family hadn’t taught everything, and nobody truly thought anyone was incompetent.
Now suddenly someone has learned it, making those who believed themselves to be incompetent truly seem incompetent to others.
As people online say, "The Chen Family has taught you, and yet you still can’t learn it, you might as well hang yourself."
But why did Wudang manage to learn it?
What’s the difference after all?
Not only Dragon and Tiger Mountain, but people from other Taoist Sect places were also confused after seeing this. Those with a carefree attitude didn’t bother with the previous announcement, after all, it was made earlier, and now it’s deleted, everyone knows the mindset, it’s just adding to the joke.
Some with strong self-esteem and poor mentality have secretly deleted the announcement.
Only Wudang’s Sect Leader and Daoist Chen, along with various brothers, looked excited because they learned the "Ancient Calming Heart Technique," and after reciting it, they truly felt a special sensation.
After finishing the announcement, Daoist Chen couldn’t help but say, "I didn’t expect this ’Ancient Calming Heart Technique’ to be so magical, it is indeed suitable for us cultivators to keep calm and composed."
"Yes, the feeling of entering that special state is indeed very wonderful," another brother said with a smile.
One brother jokingly said, "It seems only we at Wudang have learned the ’Ancient Calming Heart Technique,’ while others, including those at Dragon and Tiger Mountain, haven’t managed to learn it."
Upon hearing this, Daoist Chen suddenly said, "Sect Leader, brother, I have some guesses. This ’Ancient Calming Heart Technique’ should not be so easy to learn, perhaps it even has certain conditions for use."
"According to online descriptions, our recitation of the ’Ancient Calming Heart Technique’ certainly doesn’t have the effect of the Chen Family, it’s even very much worse."
"Moreover, other places within the Taoist Sect haven’t learned it, only we at Wudang have, there must be a reason."
This made the Sect Leader and several brothers all nod in agreement.
Many people online have experienced the Chen Family’s ’Ancient Calming Heart Technique’ and indeed described that the effect is better than their recitation of the ’Ancient Calming Heart Technique.’
However, the specific situation of reciting the ’Ancient Calming Heart Technique’ by the Chen Family is unknown to them.
One brother said, "Actually, having an effect is enough, it doesn’t have to be like the Chen Family’s effect. After all, the tourists going to the Chen Family are few; more tourists come to us, isn’t it even more significant that other Taoist Sects haven’t learned it, highlighting Wudang?"
This made others nod in agreement.
Daoist Chen also understood that as long as there is an effect, and tourists can feel it, no matter if they come just for that feeling or personal satisfaction, they would say the effect is great and even exaggerate.
It’s similar to the Emperor’s New Clothes psychology, many are saying the Emperor’s clothes look great, even if one sees the Emperor naked, they fear being thought foolish and dare not say the Emperor isn’t wearing clothes.
A trickster’s line ’only smart people can see’ is the pinnacle of psychological play.
The difference is, the Emperor actually doesn’t have clothes, while Wudang has indeed learned the ’Ancient Calming Heart Technique,’ which truly has an effect.
The Sect Leader then instructed, "Since we’ve learned the ’Ancient Calming Heart Technique,’ why don’t we see which places in Wudang can serve as fixed points for reciting the Mental Tranquility Technique? Wudang is large, we need to choose several places and open them at fixed times."
This was agreed upon by Daoist Chen and others.
The Chen Family is not large, so having two fixed sessions of reciting the ’Ancient Calming Heart Technique’ a day in the Martial Arts Arena is enough; however, Wudang is considerably larger.
As for their original Scripture Hall, there are regulations to recite the corresponding Taoist Scripture; it cannot be changed at will.
Thus, a group of people walked around Wudang, inspecting various places.
As time passed, they chose several places. After reciting the ’Ancient Calming Heart Technique,’ the surroundings were clear and the effect was excellent. Arranging for a few people to recite it, tourists passing by would surely be thrilled.
Finally, the group went to a place, that is where the Golden Summit is located.
To say this Golden Summit is indeed the everlasting pain for Wudang, knowing for over 500 years, the legend of the Thunderfire Alchemy Peak has been passed on and has been the constant emblem of Wudang.
So many poets have composed poems specifically for this.
’Hundred-year Thunderfire Alchemy Hall,’ ’Thunderfire cast into Golden Peak,’ ’Should meet Thunderfire refine copper,’ and other widely known verses, famous for hundreds of years.
Whenever Thunderfire descended, that place radiated with golden light, it was incredibly spectacular, even emperors came specifically to see it.
That scenario hasn’t occurred in a long time now.
The cause was naturally certain cultural relics protection experts who insisted on acting arbitrarily, coming over to Wudang for cultural relic protection and rectification.
At that special period, the situation was somewhat sensitive, they dared not voice opposition and could only cooperate.
Otherwise, a few words from those experts could cause trouble for them.
Therefore, those experts forcibly installed lightning rods on the Golden Summit for rectification, and although it had already been upgraded, later it seemed a different person in charge wanted to install lightning nets on the Golden Summit.
This time was worse, under Thunderfire, the protection did nothing, destroying the surrounding buildings of the Golden Summit. Several originally lifelike stones were shattered, and the legend of Thunderfire Alchemy Peak disappeared after that.
The Golden Summit would no longer shine with gold at sunrise, and now even if the damaged buildings were repaired, the area of the Golden Cauldron is just rusty iron.
