Leaving those words, Lu Xin was about to get up and leave.
But Chen Ruoyan stopped him.
"Wait a moment."
"What is it? Have you made up your mind?" Lu Xin turned his head.
He saw a flash of hesitation in Chen Ruoyan's eyes before she steeled herself and knelt directly on the ground, saying, "Disciple Chen Ruoyan greets Master."
Then, she kowtowed three times, which counted as the ceremony of apprenticeship.
"Very good. From today onwards, you are this Daoist's disciple. Rise."
Lu Xin was naturally not one for formalities. After accepting the three kowtows, he officially confirmed the master-disciple relationship.
Instantly, the [Bond] passive skill gained another person.
He pulled down the panel and glanced at it roughly. There were a total of seven people who had reached the Immortal Realm, with Huang Tianjiao being the highest.
Perhaps because she was stuck at the peak of the Golden Immortal stage, this little phoenix hadn't provided him with much mana for so long.
Without thinking too much about it, since he had formally accepted someone as a disciple, it was obviously inappropriate to leave now.
So he sat back down.
Chen Ruoyan was still standing and unwilling to sit. Lu Xin didn't force her and asked, "What cultivation method did you originally practice?"
"Replying to Senior, no, Master, it is a Heavenly Immortal-level cultivation method called 'Grand Prime Heavenly Immortal Mystical Art'."
While answering, Chen Ruoyan didn't know where to put her hands, obviously still somewhat restrained.
"Grand Prime Heavenly Immortal Mystical Art."
Lu Xin muttered, "The name is not bad, but unfortunately, the level is a bit low."
He examined the mystical arts he possessed. There were quite a few, and he didn't know which one would be the most suitable for this disciple.
So he asked, "Do you know what the 'Taiyin Body' is?"
He planned to teach according to her aptitude, but he lacked knowledge and didn't know the specifics of her constitution.
Moreover, there was nowhere to ask because the people around him were all clueless.
Hua Nu was simple-minded, and her memory was limited.
Little Vermilion Bird had been in the secret realm since hatching and had no one to interact with, also a blank slate.
Zi Wan was a little better, but also limited.
So he could only try to get information from her directly.
Hearing this topic, Chen Ruoyan became even more nervous, but she still truthfully said:
"Replying to Master, Ruoyan is also not very clear, only knowing that it benefits others."
Saying this, she didn't forget to secretly glance at Lu Xin, and only breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that his expression hadn't changed.
"So that's how it is…"
Lu Xin's expression remained unchanged, but he secretly thought it was troublesome. Just as he was about to speak, he saw Chen Ruoyan bow and say:
"I hope Master can enlighten me."
"Cough…"
Lu Xin almost lost his balance. Under Chen Ruoyan's puzzled gaze, he quickly coughed to cover up his abnormality.
Just kidding, if he exposed his ignorance to his disciple for the first time,
Then his towering image might be ruined.
So he could only bite the bullet and say seriously:
"Constitutions vary from person to person. Even the same constitution will differ in different people."
Saying this, he stood up and walked to her side, saying:
"This master needs to examine your condition in order to teach you according to your aptitude and pass on a suitable method to you. Are you willing?"
She was not Hua Nu, and he could not arbitrarily examine her body, so he had to first seek her consent.
Chen Ruoyan didn't think much about it and nodded, "Sorry for the trouble, Master."
"Yes, relax and don't resist."
Hearing her agreement, Lu Xin placed a hand on her shoulder. After a moment, he retracted it.
He now understood her specific situation.
Moreover, he happened to have a cultivation method suitable for her.
But he was not in a hurry to teach it to her. Instead, he frowned and said, "Have you felt any discomfort during your recent cultivation?"
"Discomfort?"
Although Chen Ruoyan didn't know why her master would suddenly ask this, she still tried to recall and then said:
"Replying to Master, Ruoyan has not felt any discomfort. On the contrary, I have found that the colder the place, the easier it is to cultivate."
"It shouldn't be long before this disciple can break through to the Heavenly Immortal stage."
She was a little proud of herself.
But she immediately stopped being proud because she heard Lu Xin say:
"This is because of the 'Taiyin Body', and it is also just a superficial phenomenon. I'm afraid the day you break through to the Heavenly Immortal stage will be the day you suffer."
"Ah? Why?"
Chen Ruoyan obviously didn't understand and looked at Lu Xin, expecting an explanation.
Lu Xin was not trying to scare her.
Although he didn't know how the 'Taiyin Body' was viewed in the outside world, judging from what he personally understood, Chen Ruoyan was indeed at a relatively critical moment.
After pondering for a while, he said:
"The so-called isolated yin does not produce, and solitary yang does not grow. Taiyin and Taiyang both belong to the extremes and are constantly on the path to destruction."
"Those with strong vitality may go further, but they will always reach the end of destruction."
"Your situation is like this. The reason why you cultivate so quickly is because you have absorbed the yang energy and vitality that you were born with."
Chen Ruoyan seemed to understand and suddenly said:
"I remember now. That old guy from Black Mountain said that I shouldn't rush to break through and that he would find me an object with yang energy."
"And such things are somewhat scarce in the Ghost Domain."
"At the time, I thought he was trying to do something inappropriate."
Saying this, her face flushed slightly, and her voice became softer, "Plus, I was in a hurry to plan my escape, so I didn't think too much about it."
Lu Xin nodded, finally understanding what the old ghost from Black Mountain meant by "helping her" when he saw the Bi Feng tribulation.
And this also confirmed his statement.
"Then Master, does that mean that if I don't have an object with yang energy in the future, I won't be able to cultivate?"
After understanding, Chen Ruoyan was a little anxious.
Lu Xin shook his head, "Don't panic. This master has a solution."
"Really?"
Chen Ruoyan was overjoyed and quickly knelt down, saying, "I hope Master can teach me. Ruoyan will be eternally grateful."
"Rise."
Lu Xin helped her up, then walked back and forth in front of her with his hands behind his back, thinking.
This was not a pretense, but he was really considering something.
In fact, Chen Ruoyan's situation was quite suitable for yin-yang techniques, but it should be mainly yin and supplemented by yang, using yang to nourish yin.
In this way, her cultivation speed would be extremely fast.
However, he had not even begun to comprehend the Dao of Yin and Yang and knew very little about it.
In addition, Chen Ruoyan's foundation was still too shallow at this time, so he could only take it one step at a time.
Therefore, he still had to follow his original idea and first teach her a simpler method.
So he suddenly turned around and said, "The solution is actually very simple. Since isolated yin does not produce, and solitary yang does not grow, then you only need to harmonize yin and yang."
"This master has a technique called 'Supreme Water Divine Thunder Method', which is both a cultivation method and a mystical power."
"Although it is simple, it can regulate yin and yang and nourish all things."
"If you change to cultivate this method, you will not only solve the problem of cultivation, but also make up for the vitality you previously lost imperceptibly."
Chen Ruoyan was overjoyed again and was about to kneel down, but Lu Xin stopped her.
"Then Master, what is Supreme Water Divine Thunder?" She asked in confusion.
Lu Xin had to explain:
"This thunder is one of the five elements of positive thunder, also known as Du Tian Underworld Thunder and Kui Water Yin Thunder."
"It is born from the gathering of yin and yang energy. In the sky, it is rain and dew, with the virtue of nourishing all things. On the ground, it is rivers, lakes, and seas, which have the merit of blessing and the power of flooding."
"It is the most gentle of the five elements of thunder techniques."
"But its attack power should not be underestimated. The flooding of rivers, lakes, and seas also has the power to destroy the world."
Chen Ruoyan opened her mouth wide. She didn't expect that the simple technique her master spoke of sounded so powerful.
Especially from his next words, she felt that this technique was not simple at all.
