C17 White Silver Needles
"Does uncle know that you have already broken through to the Unshakeable Stage?"
Zhuo Yutong, who was still unable to calm down, suddenly realized that her cousin, whom she had only seen once every two years, had become somewhat mysterious.
Lee Yihong, who was supposed to be called a cultivation maniac, should have already reached the Peak Martial Master Stage. Zhuo Yutong had even specially taken her leave from the bustling living room of Lee family and came to the bamboo forest in the backyard to visit Lee Yihong.
However, she did not expect Lee Yihong to not be here. After entering the bamboo house, Zhuo Yutong saw calligraphy works filled with handwriting. The more she read, the more shocked she became.
Each of them was enough to shock a Peak Martial Master Stage, and it also made Zhuo Yutong deeply attracted by the aura emitted from these calligraphy works.
She even felt a trapped Flood Dragon's desire to escape.
Although the current Lee Yihong didn't have a trace of aura, it made the Peak Martial Master Stage Zhuo Yutong feel the aura of a wild beast, a Flood Dragon that was resting.
Once it erupted, it would be like a tiger, a tiger, and a terrifying destruction of mountains and rivers.
"I just broke through, father still doesn't know about it."
"Cousin, have some tea."
Lee Yihong smiled and poured a cup of light yellow soup for Zhuo Yutong. It looked light, but it was fragrant tea. Even the room was filled with a pleasant aroma of tea.
"This is the specialty of Red Creek City, white tea with white hair and silver needles."
Lee Yihong also poured himself a cup. He put down the tea bowl and opened the lid. Immediately, the silver and strong sprouts of the tea were revealed. They were white like silver needles and sharp like swords. It was as if they were the essence of a tea tree.
It was like the spine of a well-ironed body.
"Cousin Yihong,i broke through to the Martial Master Stage at the age of eighteen, and I broke through to the Peak Martial Master Stage at the age of twenty-three. I thought that I would be able to comprehend it easily and not be tempted to break through to the Unshakeable Stage, but I never thought that I would be stuck at this step like some of the elders in my family. I have been trapped for five years."
"Although I am only twenty-eight years old, and there is still hope, this torture in my heart of martial arts is eroding my heart of martial arts. These five years have been like years, and if I don't break through to the next realm, my heart of Dao will be covered in dust."
"Once my soul is weakened,i'm afraid I won't have any hope of breaking through to the Unshakeable Stage. If I don't break through in ten or twenty years,i will be buried in the crowd until I die of old age."
Zhuo Yutong also sat down on the tea table. She picked up the teacup and took a sip. The shock in her eyes gradually calmed down. Although she was shocked that Lee Yihong, who was nineteen years old, had already broken through to the Unshakeable Stage, she was influenced by Lee Yihong's calmness and became calm.
Adding her own cultivation base, Zhuo Yutong's mind also calmed down in an instant.
She only looked at Lee Yihong with her bright eyes and put down the teacup. "I am not willing to just disappear from the crowd. If I can't make it to the Martial Master Stage,i can only consume the Blood Solidifying Pill. Even if there is a seventy to eighty percent death rate,i will still try to break through to the Unshakeable Stage."
A determined look was seen in Zhuo Yutong's eyes, as if there was nothing difficult that could stop this beautiful girl from pursuing the path of martial arts.
"Cousin Yutong's will is firm and proud. This is not a bad thing. Instead, it is a kind of talent in cultivation. Those who do not have the pride in their hearts have already aged before they die."
"Although everyone has different understandings and experiences, and those who have broken through to the Unshakeable Stage have different feelings, the only thing that doesn't change is the purity of the heart. If you want to step into the Unshakeable Stage, you need to have an absolute heart of sincerity."
"If you aren't sincere enough to yourself, how can you step into the Unshakeable Stage?"
Lee Yihong's gaze was profound, but Zhuo Yutong didn't try to hide it. She stared at Lee Yihong closely, as if she wanted to see through his cultivation realm.
However, it made Lee Yihong, who had now stepped into the Unshakeable Stage, sigh in his heart. This was a girl who was gentle on the outside but tough on the inside. When she was 18 years old, she condensed her True Qi and became a martial master. When she became a Peak Martial Master Stage warrior at 23 years old, it could be seen that Zhuo Yutong had put in a lot of effort. She was unwilling to be ordinary, and she had a strong desire to seek the Dao.
After stepping into the Unshakeable Stage, Lee Yihong also felt the changes in his body. It was as if everything had changed, and he had gained an indescribable feeling. His soul was being cleansed.
It seemed like he had a unique understanding of the martial way. Looking at Zhuo Yutong, Lee Yihong felt as if he had seen himself not long ago, his desire to break through, and his desire to not be moved.
However, after years of calligraphy practice, his heart was infinitely close to not being moved. He also deeply knew what the persistence in his heart was.
This was also the reason why Lee Yihong was able to step into the Unshakeable Stage at the age of nineteen.
Six hundred miles south of Laucheng was the Guanghua City of Nanyang Prefecture. Zhuo Family was also a powerful family in Guanghua City. Zhuo Yutong and Zhuo Yiming were the ten most outstanding young men in Guanghua City, and Zhuo Yutong was also a rare girl that countless young men in Guanghua City pursued.
The coldness that was shown on the outside and the toughness in her heart was no weaker than any of the geniuses in Guanghua City. Even though she was a Peak Martial Master Stage at the age of twenty-eight, she was still a genius and had a higher chance of stepping into the Unshakeable Stage.
However, after reaching thirty years old, she would no longer be considered a genius. Once she reached fifty years old, she would have no hope of breaking through, unless she consumed a Blood Solidifying Pill with a seventy to eighty percent mortality rate.
But even if one successfully broke through after consuming the Blood Solidifying Pill, it would still be the weakest. Whether it was the soul, the physical body, or the True Qi, Unshakeable Stage was not much different from Peak Martial Master Stage warriors.
Apart from the fact that the True Qi was longer, which allowed one to gradually condense the Qi, giving one a room for growth, no Unshakeable Stage warrior who consumed the Blood Solidifying Pill had any room for advancement.
Using the Blood Solidifying Pill to break through was actually burning one's potential. Only by squeezing out one's potential in that instant would one be able to successfully step into the Unshakeable Stage.
Furthermore, those who took the Blood Solidifying Pill to break through to the Unshakeable Stage could at most live up to 200 years of age before dying, and it was even harder for them to improve their cultivation base.
"Please advise me, cousin."
Zhuo Yutong suddenly stood up and cupped her fists towards Lee Yihong. Her eyes were firm, but they were extremely sincere. The spirit of being shameless and asking showed Zhuo Yutong's desire to break through to the Unshakeable Stage.
Her devotion to cultivation.
"Sister Yutong, please don't do this."
Lee Yihong waved his hand and asked Zhuo Yutong to bow even though she cupped her fists.
"You and I are as close as brother and sister, what is there to ask for guidance?"
Lee Yihong smiled and walked out of the tea table. "You have already reached the Peak Martial Master Stage, and your true qi is also extremely condensed. Only your heart is not pure enough, or rather, you have not seen through the determination in your heart."
As he spoke, Lee Yihong walked to the table where he used to practice calligraphy. He laid down a new piece of paper, as if he was preparing to practice calligraphy.
"My inner determination?"
Zhuo Yutong's expression changed slightly, but her brows were tightly knitted. "My father also said that it was because I didn't see the determination in my heart. Only by truly seeing through the determination in my heart can I comprehend and not be tempted to step into the Unshakeable Stage. However, he also said that this can only be achieved by one's own comprehension. No one can help me."
"Cousin Yihong, how did you break the persistence in your heart?" Zhuo Yutong couldn't help but ask.
"Me?"
Lee Yihong, on the other hand, picked up the Blood Wolf Brush on the table, his eyes flashing with a trace of light.
"Everyone's understanding of their own martial arts is different. What I see is the fear of death in my heart, or rather, the fear of life and death."
"The fear of life and death?"
Zhuo Yutong was deep in thought when she heard this. She stared at Lee Yihong and said, "You have actually overcome the fear of death. Cousin Yihong, could it be that you have disappeared? In the past two days, he had broken through the persistence in his heart at the edge of death and stepped into the Unshakeable Stage without being moved! "
Zhuo Yutong looked shocked.
"Oh!"
Lee Yihong, who was about to draw his brush, had a flash in his eyes. The brush in his hand froze. He sighed to himself that Zhuo Yutong was very careful. With just a little bit, she could figure out how he had stepped into the Unshakeable Stage.
If he continued speaking, he was afraid that she would be able to guess his identity as the assassin, Nifeng.
