Chapter 477 The True Secret to Deceiving People: Adhering to Conventions and Reasoning (Part 2)

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Shouchang seemed to realize that he had misspoke, and even put his arm down from Su Che's shoulder.

He chuckled ingratiatingly, "Um, Junior Brother Su, please don't tell Uncle Wei this, okay? Uncle Wei is a good person in every way, except..."

Is it that you're narrow-minded?
"He's quite rigorous in legal theory and very good at persuading others. Well, I'd better not tell Uncle Wei my humble opinion, lest I upset him."

I understand, Senior Brother Li. Master is probably just a bit petty.

Looking at Su Che's knowing expression, Li Shouchang, the Void Step Master, wished he could slap himself twice.

It's over, it's over.

The disciple that Uncle Wei has chosen this time is not an honest person.

That's it. Next time we attack the Heavenly Demon Clan, Old Li will probably be chosen as the vanguard.

Sigh, my master always says that the root of all my troubles in this life lies in my tongue. Why can't I control myself?

Li Shouchang used his profound skills to reflect on his past actions and regretted his earlier actions.

"Senior Brother Li, isn't the Six Dragons Returning to the Sun True Technique good enough?"

“Good, good, junior brother. This Six Dragons Returning to the Sun True Technique has the words ‘Supreme’ before it. You should know that in our Xuanmen, these two words are specifically for our Supreme Dao Venerable. Cultivation methods with these two words as a prefix in our Huangtiandao directly point to the fundamental path of the Earth Immortal position.”

Li Shouchang looked like he was selling fake medicine.

"But Senior Brother just said it was a scam, could I have misheard? That would be really..."

Su Che shook his head.

Su San Gongzi probably had some idea about the "Supreme Six Dragons Returning to the Sun True Secret".

Even with Yu Lizi's talent, he hasn't mastered it, so it seems quite difficult.

After all, his own mentor was the kind of ruthless person who could attain immortality in front of the Lord of the End of Dharma.

"Ouch."

Li Shouchang, with a ruthless look that suggested he was willing to risk the emperor's life, whispered to Su Che.

"Junior Brother Su probably doesn't know yet, does he? Guess how many people in the sect have mastered the Six Dragons Returning to the Sun True Technique?"

"There must be at least several dozen people, right?"

"too much."

Li Shouchang shook his head.

"Those dozen or so people?"

"Still too many."

Li Shouchang then shook his head.

"Surely there should be five or six people?"

Su Che was truly shocked.

Huang Tiandao was a figure from the same era as the Five Emperors of the Five Directions. Needless to say, his own cultivation was exceptional, and the Huang Tiandao he founded was one of the top sects in the Xuanmen.

Not to mention how many immortals there are in the sect, there are certainly quite a few immortals who have achieved longevity.

There aren't even ten people who have mastered the Six Dragons Returning to the Sun True Technique. Can this thing even be considered a fundamental cultivation method?

Unexpectedly, Li Shouchang then shook his head.

"Since the founding of our Huangtiandao sect, only half a person has been successfully cultivated."

Li's words left Su Che completely baffled.

If you've mastered it, you've mastered it; if you haven't, you haven't. What does it mean to call someone "half a person"?
You can't just master half of it and not master the other half; that would be the same as not mastering it at all. "Only the patriarch mastered the Supreme Six Dragons Returning Sun True Technique, but since he founded this method, he can only be considered half a master."

Upon hearing this, Su Che felt that although this senior brother Shouchang might be a bit unconventional, he was still conservative in the end.

If only my grandmaster master had mastered the "Supreme Six Dragons Returning to the Sun True Technique," then in my possession, it wouldn't just be that half a person would have mastered it, but that no one would have mastered it at all.

Or rather, it's something you can't master.

If a martial art can only be mastered by its creator, is there a big difference between it and not being created at all?

Li Shouchang shook his head and said.

"The so-called Six Dragons refers to mastering the six fundamental supernatural powers within our sect. Your Zhou Jue Yin Tian Secret Manual is only one of them. Just to reach the Rejuvenating Core realm, you need to master three of them. Others only need to master one, but now you have to master three. Don't you think that's cheating people?"

Su Che nodded.

Diversifying into three different disciplines is certainly not as efficient as delving deeply into one; Li Shouchang's words are indeed reasonable.

"Once you reach the Void Step Realm, you will need to master three more techniques. If that were all, it would be fine, as it would just require more hard work. But there are still two major hurdles to overcome."

"The first hurdle is when a Golden Core cultivator enters the Void Step stage. They must undergo a Dragon Transformation, which involves creating a Dharma with Primordial Spirit from the Dharma and cultivating a Spirit Dragon. You must know that this Dharma with Primordial Spirit is something that can only be encountered by chance. For a Core Formation cultivator to cultivate it, it is not about talent or Dao Seed, but entirely about luck."

Li Shouchang shook his head and said, "It is only possible to enter the Void Step by refining one spirit dragon, but if you want to attain immortality, you need to refine six dragons and have the ability to turn back the sun. Naturally, no one can achieve this kind of cultivation method. I'm not trying to break your Dao heart here, but back then, countless senior uncles, senior brothers, junior brothers, and even junior nephews in the sect wanted to challenge this Six Dragons Turning Back the Sun True Technique."

“Which cultivator doesn’t think of himself as the protagonist of the world? Everyone wants to accomplish a great feat that has never been seen before in the sect. It’s not an exaggeration, senior brother. In our Huangtiandao sect, seven or eight out of ten people have challenged the Six Dragons Returning Sun True Technique.”

"As for the final result, hehe, they all switched to practicing other things anyway. Seriously, Junior Brother Su, take my advice: don't tell people you're practicing the Six Dragons Returning to the Sun True Technique. It's not that anyone will try to sabotage your cultivation, but your Dao heart is really easily affected."

Li Shouchang spoke with sincerity, but Su Che felt that there was nothing wrong with what he said.

Not bad.

Young Master Su felt that his Dao heart had been influenced by this Senior Brother Li.

So many people have tried Huang Tiandao so far, and none of them have mastered it, even after everyone has taken on the challenge.

What's the point of practicing if you can't even do this?

Su Che looked at Li Shouchang and felt that he must get along well with this talkative senior brother this time, at least to ask him what kind of Taoist methods are easy to cultivate.

When I can no longer master the skill, I can easily switch to another skill.

But for now, of course, I should just focus on my spiritual practice.

Li Shouchang was right about several things. Which cultivator doesn't see themselves as the protagonist of the world? Young Master Su was naturally willing to give it a try.

What if you manage to master it?

The two chatted and laughed as they walked to the entrance of the Huangtiandao Sect.

"Shouchang, what are you doing taking Junior Brother Su with you?"

Su Che looked up and saw an old, sage-like disciple of the Huangtian Dao sect standing at the mountain gate. His eyes were bright and piercing as he stared intently at Li Shouchang beside him.

Jiang Shoucheng.

One is honest and the other is conventional. It seems that these two are both disciples of Mo Jiaoyu, and theoretically, they can be considered his brothers-in-law.

Su Che looked at this man and realized that he was the same person who had been guarding this place when he first arrived at the Huangtiandao Mountain Gate. Even Mo Jiaoyu had changed shifts, but he was still standing guard here.

Huang Tiandao's disciples are all working so hard.

"Oh, Senior Brother Jiang, you've worked hard, you've worked hard."

Li Shouchang chuckled and asked, "Senior brother, are you on duty today?"

"Bullshit, I've been here for the past ten years."
