Chapter 116 If you're strong, she's strong; using heavenly lightning to exorcise demons.
Although Lü Qian spoke with conviction and his firm voice echoed in the cave, the four old men on the stone platform were not inspired by his bold words.
The old man surnamed Lu frowned and shook his head. "Young man, it's not that we don't believe in your heart for seeking the Dao."
"But the current situation is very tricky."
"Duanmu Ying was originally just a doctor, but doctors also have their own terrors. Life is the foundation of human existence, and her existence is your existence."
His words sounded mysterious, but Lü Qian understood what the old man meant.
Bloodlines originate from ancestors. If the bloodline is impure, then "Lü Qian," born from that bloodline, will naturally also be impure.
Moreover, this "impurity" permeates Lü Qian's entire being, from his physical body to his soul, from his appearance to his essence.
Since the bloodline flows throughout Lü Qian's body, the "Duanmu Ying" that grows in the bloodline naturally also exists in various parts of Lü Qian's body.
The most troublesome thing is that as Lü Qian cultivates and his life is constantly tempered, the "Duanmu Ying" hidden in his life will naturally benefit greatly.
He is strong, and Duanmu Ying is strong; their relationship is one and the same.
The Double-Handed Technique has the power to change lives, so why not use it to remove Duanmu Ying?
A fountain cannot rise higher than its source, and even the strongest man cannot lift his own body.
At this moment, the Dual-Handed Blade originates from Duanmu Ying's bloodline, not from the so-called Lü family bloodline. This is a blade transformed from the opponent's own power!
When Lü Qian used his Double-Handed Sword to cut down Duanmu Ying, what was the difference between that and using the sword itself to cut the sword?
I'm afraid that in the end, it won't be Duanmu Ying who gets killed, but rather Lü Qian, the one wielding the knife.
To eradicate "Duanmu Ying" from the root, it is also necessary to eliminate "Lu Qian," who exists in the same way.
This is why Lü Qian didn't use his double-handed technique to remove Duanmu Ying from her body.
Killing someone is easy, but bringing someone back to life is virtually impossible.
Lu Qian looked at the four old men frowning and deep in thought on the stone platform, his expression as calm as ever.
He had already come up with a solution, which was to "sever my own path to enlightenment and return to the innate state."
If we compare the "Primordial Qi" to a seed, then "Lü Qian" and "Duanmu Ying" are two ways of expressing the "genes" within that seed.
Lü Qian, on the other hand, was developing and growing from the very beginning and can be considered dominant; Duanmu Ying, however, could only express her traits under specific conditions and can be considered recessive.
Now that certain conditions have been met, Duanmu Ying, who is latent, has been expressed and manifested, which naturally leads to a conflict with Lü Qian, who is manifest.
This is a fundamental conflict that cannot be reconciled unless one completely overwhelms the other.
Because of the conflict between the two, the seed of "Primordial Qi" has become impure and incomplete. It can be said that the seed is now a waste seed and no longer has the potential to grow and thrive.
Since this seed is already useless, why not find a new one?
Severing the old body to give birth to a new one, a blue lotus blooms from the filthy mud!
"This disciple wants to take a gamble!"
Lu Qian bowed to the four old men on the stone platform. "This time, I wish to learn from the Great God of the Three Altars and Seas, to remove bones and flesh, but in a way that is different from his."
"What this disciple desires is for new bones to grow from decaying bones, and flesh to grow from rotten flesh, so as to create my own [Primordial Qi]."
His voice echoed in the empty, desolate cave, the faint echoes gradually reverberating in the dark space, like a pebble falling into a lake, stirring up a thousand waves in the calm cave.
"Young man, I have a plan. Would you like to hear it?"
Hong Yin swept aside her loose hair, stretched her long head downwards, and stared intently at Lü Qian below with her dark eyes.
His eyes sparkled with the joy of something lost and found, and the madness that followed his confusion.
Upon hearing this, the other three elders on the stone platform quickly realized what was happening.
The elderly man surnamed Fang laughed heartily and patted the stone platform beneath him, exclaiming, "Wonderful! Wonderful! Wonderful!"
"A leaf before the eyes obscures Mount Tai. Junior Brother Hongyin, you're definitely the quickest to catch a glimpse of the world."
"Absolutely! Absolutely! I was so confused in the inner vision that I almost forgot about this method."
The elderly man surnamed Lu grabbed Zhou Meng's hand and, as he rambled on, said, "Junior brother, this is truly fate!"
"The three of us have acted in accordance with Heaven's will this time!"
Zhou Meng felt the spit sprayed on his face, his eyelids trembled, and he said, "Senior brother, if this goes according to your wishes, then it must be fate, right?"
As he spoke, he raised his sleeve to wipe the spittle from his face. "Are you sure you want to do this?"
Zhou Meng, who understood the three's plan, did not stop them. His face was hidden behind his sleeve, making it impossible to see his features. Only his voice suddenly became muffled.
Lu Qian looked at the four old men on the stone platform with some confusion. The three old men, who were behaving erratically, were holding Zhou Meng's hands, and the veins on their withered arms were visible.
Hong Yin waved his arms wildly, "Kid, since you dare to gamble, we old men will play along with you."
"A devastating calamity awaits you, but after you overcome it, you will be blessed with great fortune. I wonder if you dare to give it a try."
"Please enlighten me, senior!"
Hong Yin raised both hands, "In this world, if we're talking about something that coexists with both destruction and creation, then heavenly thunder is it!"
His voice suddenly rose to a high pitch, and his thunderous shouts echoed through the cave.
"Thunder is the pivot of heaven and earth, the source of the birth and development of all things!"
Upon hearing Hong Yin's words, Lü Qian frowned and pondered for a moment. "Grandmaster Uncle means that I should take advantage of the destruction and creation of thunder."
"To destroy the old body, sever the old self, and with the help of creation, return to the innate state, thereby gaining new life?"
"But although our Wudang sect also has a tradition of thunder magic, it has long been lost..."
Before Lü Qian could finish speaking, Hong Yin impatiently interrupted him.
Hongyin on the stone platform waved his hand impatiently, "I'm not asking you to go and practice thunder magic again."
"Given your current condition, it's best to rest for a while before dealing with that devil."
"I'm referring to real heavenly thunder, heavenly thunder!"
As he spoke, he raised his right index finger high, "Heavenly thunder is the manifestation of the harmony of yin and yang and the righteous energy of heaven and earth. If heavenly thunder is used to nurture your new life, then the blessings will be immeasurable."
"Moreover, there is no more comprehensive method of exorcising demons than heavenly lightning. Under the bombardment of heavenly lightning, I refuse to believe that demon will not be utterly annihilated!"
His ruthless voice echoed throughout the cave, a gleeful smile on his face, truly resembling a mad Taoist priest, determined not to rest until his enemy was utterly destroyed.
"But this method is extremely dangerous, akin to walking a tightrope between life and death. Would you be willing to try it?"
