The Founder of Qi Cultivation, Reincarnates?

Chapter 320 317- Asking Reasonable And Intelligent Questions



“Of course these methods where your life is on the line to get stronger reaps greater benefits, but it’s not ideal to always chose this path. Especially when there are safer alternatives. Do you understand?”

By the end of the scolding, Yang Su looked like a wrinkled raisin under Li Shen's disapproving glare.

Yang Su nodded and said.

“Master, I understand. It’s just that at the moment I was under pressure thinking that if I let such an opportunity escape, I’ll never be able to get a better Qi Sea to form my ninth Divine Platform. I may have had to settle for having two same elements for two of my Qi Seas.”

“Were you badly injured?”

Li Shen sighed in resignation as he asked.

“I..”

Yang Su hesitated before he continued.

“If it wasn't for that senior, the Spatial Tribulation would have killed me.”

Hearing that, Li Shen thought for a moment then concluded that it was the elder he saw when he exited the Dimension before.

If there was anyone who could save Yang Su from a Spatial Heavenly Tribulation, it was he who was comprehending Spatial Dao Laws himself.

Li Shen sighed once again before saying.

“He must have sensed the strong spatial fluctuations of the Spatial Tribulation and entered to investigate it. You were lucky this time, but you might not have the same luck the next time. Be careful.”

Li Shen then patted Yang Su’s head who nodded. Li Shen then moved to get up and have these three catch up, but Yang Su suddenly thought of something and asked.

​ “Master, I have a question. Will I face stronger Heavenly Tribulations in the future?”

Li Shen paused, he thought for a moment then said.

“The nature of your Heavenly Tribulations is similar to the tribulations cultivators in the higher realms face. The Heavens deemed them as a threat for comprehending its Heavenly Laws wrongly and without its permission.”

“What do you mean by that?”

Mu Fan by the side suddenly asked with a confused expression.

Li Shen looked at him before sweeping his gaze across the three. He just realize something.

They weren’t like him who had information to understand certain things that had become a norm in this Era. What Li Shen had just said could only be comprehended by someone who was in his own situation, who had come from the God Era.

What Mu Fan basically just asked was why the Heavens deemed cultivators a threat and send Heavenly Tribulations.

If it was anyone else, they would have no clue, but Li Shen knew. Spiritual Qi Cultivation was out of the Heavens' control. It basically bypassed its rules and created its own path towards the top.

What would happen if someone not under its control comprehended its laws without restraint? The strongest Gods were the ones who had become its Heir to one of its laws, a Domain Existence. But they had a limit, they were forbidden to comprehend any other laws than their own.

But with Spiritual Qi cultivation, there was no restriction like that. So of course the Heavens would see Qi Cultivators as a threat, an imbalance or imperfection in its once balanced and perfect heavenly construct.

Li Shen would like to explain this to them, but it tied with his reincarnation from the God Era so he opted to say instead.

“There is a saying in the cultivation world, that cultivators go against the heavens to cultivate. So it sends Heavenly Tribulation to test them or possibly just to kill them.”

“Then does that mean there is a way to cultivate without going against the heavens? Like if there is a wrong way to cultivate wouldn’t there be a right way?”

Li Shen looked at Mu Fan speechless.

‘Oie Oie Oie, what the hell are you doing asking such reasonable and intelligent questions?’

Mu Fan was the last person he would suspect to ask about the existence of Heavenly Cultivation, or as it was called in his past life, Soul Cultivation.

Li Shen recovered and he calmly shrugged his shoulders as he said.

“I never read about such a cultivation method... uh... in my Clan’s Archives.”

After saying that, Li Shen took a quick glance at Jun.

Seeing that he was only looking down in thought, he let out a sigh.

‘I almost forgot he could detect when someone was lying. Good thing I added that last bit else I would have immediately been found out. Haha, they're starting to catch up, no they might already have.’

That was what Li Shen wanted so he could lose this protective nature that had been subconsciously hankering him down, but now it was becoming harder to hide certain things from them or lose the reason to do so.

But for his reincarnation, it wasn’t that Li Shen wanted to lie to them, but if he didn’t have to tell them he didn’t want to. Them knowing about his reincarnation or not won’t affect them.

Who knows, maybe there will come a time he would need to, but to be honest, Li Shen didn’t see himself telling anyone now or in the future.

“Is my Heavenly Tribulations starting early in my cultivation because of the Dao Foundation Master gave me?”

Yang Su suddenly asked, drawing Li Shen out of his thoughts.

Li Shen nodded in response.

Meanwhile, Jun placed a hand over his dantian. His Master had done something similar for him, however, he didn’t have to go through any tribulations while he formed his Qi Sea and moved through the Foundation Realm to reach the late stage.

Jun didn’t know whether to feel lucky or disappointed that this was the case.

“Alright, you guys catch up. I called for everyone so Lihua should be here soon. Since Fang Chen is missing we’ll have to go look for him after.”

“Junior brother Chen is missing?”

Yang Su asked with a worried expression.

Jun was surprised as well, it was the first time he was hearing this news.

“First brother Yin and now brother Chen, I hope he's okay.

Jun said that for Fang Chen, but Lihua also came to his mind.

“Wait, what happened to junior brother Yin?”

Yang Su asked once again confused, as he looked towards the top of the tree where he faintly sense Fei Yin’s presence.

Mu Fan as if he had been poked into becoming angry by a needle, snorted and said.

“That bastard almost got his body taken over.”

“It wasn’t brother Yin’s fault.”

Jun immediately retorted and frowned at Mu Fan.

Mu Fan nodded exaggeratedly then said coldly.

“You’re right, you’re right, it’s not that idiot Fei Yin’s fault it's that little brat’s fault!”

Jun’s face turned sour at Mu Fan’s words and he glared at him. He told Mu Fan to shut up and took it upon himself to explain to Yang Su what happened before he came.

Li Shen meanwhile took this opportunity to leave.

At the same time, Tai suddenly appeared next to him.

“Why don’t you stay with the others?”

After taking a bite of his Illusory Void fruit Tai said annoyed.

“That human is giving off a strange aura that irritates my senses. I can’t stand it.”

Li Shen turned to him and asked confused.

“Who, Yang Su?”

Tai nodded.

“I have nothing against him as he’s Master’s disciple, but his aura is just too strange.”

Turning back to face forwards, Li Shen floated further from the group as he thought back on Yang Su’s aura.

It was strange, in the fact that it reflected he was in the Sea Expansion Realm cultivator when he was actually one step away from entering the peak stage of the Foundation Realm.

‘It might be because of his Dao Foundation and that his Spatial Qi Sea hadn’t yet formed a Divine Platform. Maybe that was delaying his aura reflecting his true cultivation.’

Li Shen thought to himself, but he couldn’t see how that would affect Tai's senses.

Li Shen didn't bother turning back to ask Yang Su and instead opted to do so later on. He didn’t want to interrupt them after leaving.

Meanwhile, Yang Su turned away from Jun’s explanation to watch Li Shen float away.

He just remembered he wanted to ask him about why he was attracting Spirit Beasts. He had been so preoccupied with showing off his cultivation that he forgot about bringing it up.

Yang Su thought for a moment, and then like Li Shen opted to ask about it later.

While Li Shen was meditating a distance away from Yang Su and the others, who were soon accompanied by Fei Yin. A beautiful girl had just stepped into the Western Territory and quickly headed for the Guardian Tree rather frantically.
