Upon returning to their residence, Hua Youyue and the others had all arrived, looking anxiously at Yang Zhen.
The cheap cat was dumbfounded at the side, as if he remembered something. The expression on his face turned extremely spectacular, one moment he tried to speak but stopped, and the next he was amazedly looking at Yang Zhen.
Yang Zhen, on the other hand, was baffled as he gazed at a strange symbol on his chest. He opened his mouth but only managed to say one thing:
“Damn!”
At the location of Yang Zhen’s heart, there was a symbol that resembled a bloodstain, in an irregular ‘6’ shape, as if a lot of circles were drawn. It gave off a dizzying feeling when looked at.
Hua Youyue dumbly stared at this symbol, her eyes wide open in surprise, and asked in bewilderment, “What…what on earth is going on?”
Yang Zhen was speechless, and somewhat depressed he said, “I don’t know what’s going on either. I had a fight with two at the Void Cultivation Stage, and this thing popped up. I now have absolutely no True Essence in my dantian, all I have is a kind of strength that seems a bit foul-tempered and is running wild.”
Medicine Elder rubbed his eyes and suddenly exclaimed, “Your symbol, is it the Emperor mark of the Eastern Desolation Emperor?”
Yang Zhen was taken aback. He nodded and said, “Exactly because of this, I’m a bit confused. How did the Eastern Desolation Emperor’s mark appear on me?”
Hua Youyue walked up to him and extended her soft, jadelike hand, hesitated for a moment, then she laid it on Yang Zhen’s chest.
Yang Zhen gasped, feeling the somewhat cold little hand, and said blankly, “This…miss, there are so many people here. Isn’t this a bit inappropriate?”
Hua Youyue, who was already extremely nervous, shivered all over at Yang Zhen’s words. She glowered at him with her cheeks flushed, saying angrily, “At a time like this, you still have the mood for jokes. Try to control the power inside your body!”
Yang Zhen nodded. He held his breath till his face turned red, but to no avail. After cursing “damn it”, he said, “I cannot control it!”
Hua Youyue’s face turned serious. She withdrew her hand and said, “Sure enough!”
When she finished speaking, Hua Youyue looked at Yang Zhen with a strange expression and didn’t explain any further.
Yang Zhen curiously looked at Hua Youyue and asked, “So, miss, I won’t just die like this, will I? Damn, I’m not even married yet!”
Hua Youyue glared at Yang Zhen, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, and said, “What nonsense are you talking about? Why would a healthy person die!”
“So, what’s happening?” Yang Zhen pointed at the Emperor’s mark of the Eastern Desolation Emperor on his chest, gazing at what seemed like flowing blood inside it, and asked.
Everyone’s gaze focused on Hua Youyue. Hua Youyue took a deep breath and said solemnly, “What happened today, don’t let it get out. Especially about the Emperor’s mark on Yang Zhen!”
Seeing everyone nodding, Hua Youyue then said seriously, “This force in your body, if I am not mistaken, is Tiaoist details.”
“What?”
Yang Zhen widened his eyes, a look of confusion spread across his face as he asked, “What the hell is Tiaoist details?”
The rest of them were all shook, looking at Yang Zhen with strange expressions.
“Tiaoist details?! Kid, how did you get this power?” Medicine Elder asked in surprise and shock, “Did you comprehend the Dao?”
Yang Zhen was even more puzzled. He had felt the Tiaoist feeling before. There was a trace of the Tiaoist feeling in the heritage of the Dust Blood Great Sage, but Yang Zhen didn’t want someone else’s Dao, so he went ahead and beheaded the Tiaoist feeling of the Dust Blood Great Sage.
But what is this Tiaoist details?
Yang Zhen hadn’t actually heard of this kind of power before. But considering it now, it wasn’t surprising that this power was so formidable. With a Nascent Soul Stage cultivation level, he was able to kill a Void Cultivation Stage powerhouse with one punch. The power Yang Zhen relied on was this.
But now, this power had actually absorbed all the True Essence in his dantian, not leaving anything for Yang Zhen. Wasn’t this too overbearing?
Hua Youyue stroked her chin for a moment, then began to speak, “As practitioners, we abide by the will of heaven, understanding the great principles of the Dao of Heaven. Once we achieve enlightenment, we truly become part of the universe, gaining immense power.”
At this point, Hua Youyue glanced at Yang Zhen before continuing, “However, Heaven’s will is unpredictable, and the paths to the Dao are myriad. The ones who manage to comprehend the Taoist feeling are undoubtedly the extraordinarily talented elders, – the strongest beings in the universe.”
“So, I’m pretty impressive, then?” Yang Zhen asked in surprise.
Hua Youyue rolled her eyes at Yang Zhen, then said, “Taoist details and Taoist feeling are different things. If we were to compare, Taoist details are mere traces of Taoist feeling, not equivalent to the latter.”
Yang Zhen suddenly seemed a bit disappointed, mumbling to himself, “That sounds rubbish!”
With a bitter smile, Hua Youyue responded, “Do you think it’s easy to form Taoist details? Countless practitioners at the Divine Travel Stage can’t consolidate their Taoist details despite tireless effort. You managed to consolidate your Taoist details at the Nascent Soul Stage, which will undoubtedly aid your future enlightenment. If this news were to spread, nearly every Cave Heaven Blessed Land would fight to accept you as a disciple!”
Yang Zhen waved his hand dismissively, saying, “Forget about it, I haven’t thought about joining any sect yet. I’m fine being on my own.”
What a joke! With Yang Zhen’s talent, he was better off alone than joining any Great Sect. His cultivation speed was faster alone, and so far, he hadn’t encountered anything he couldn’t comprehend.
It was just that Yang Zhen’s current level was a bit low. Otherwise, he might even be able to comprehend Taoist feeling.
In fact, if Yang Zhen wanted to inherit the Taoist feeling of Dust Blood Great Sage, he could do it at the cost of his life. But he simply didn’t want to inherit someone else’s Dao.
Hua Youyue wanted to say something but held back, sighing, “Joining a Great Sect has its advantages. I won’t push you on this. In fact, in this respect, I’m as stubborn as you.”
Yang Zhen exclaimed in surprise, now remembering that the snotty boy in white had referred to Hua Youyue as Senior Sister. Could it be that Hua Youyue was once a disciple of the Heavenly Mystery Cave Sky?
At that moment, the cheater cat, who had been quietly changing its expression multiple times asked, “Kid, what’s the deal with the Emperor’s mark on you?”
Yang Zhen blanked for a moment, remembering this major issue. He glared at the cheater cat, saying, “First, tell me what ‘mark of the Emperor’ means.”
Instead of answering, the cheater cat looked at Yang Zhen in astonishment.
Medicine Elder took a deep breath and said, “A saint has a saint’s mark, an emperor has an emperor’s mark. The Emperor’s mark on you… if it’s truly similar to the Dao mark of the Eastern Desolation Emperor, then… you might be connected to the Eastern Desolation Emperor.”
“What?” Yang Zhen was flabbergasted, looking at the cheater cat, he asked, “Is that true?”
Hua Youyue looked worried and didn’t know what to say.
With a strange grin, the cheater cat said to Yang Zhen, “There are three possibilities for the Emperor’s mark on you. First, you are the reincarnation of the Eastern Desolation Emperor…”
“Impossible!” Yang Zhen immediately shook his head.
What a joke! Could a reincarnated Emperor die so easily? He wasn’t even the original owner of this body! When he inherited the original host’s memories, there were none related to the Eastern Desolation Emperor, making this the most improbable possibility.
“How can you be so sure?” The cheater cat eyed Yang Zhen suspiciously.
Yang Zhen glared back, retorting, “Bullshit, wouldn’t I know whether I’m a reincarnated Emperor?”
The cheater cat was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, “True, but there’s no absolute in the world. What if something went wrong when the Eastern Desolation Emperor reincarnated?”
Yang Zhen made a face and said, “Skip that, what’s the next possibility?”
Staring at Yang Zhen, the cheater cat said, “The next possibility is that the Eastern Desolation Emperor once left a Dao mark on you, which is only now manifesting itself.”
Yang Zhen was stunned. What the hell was that about?
Was the Eastern Desolation Emperor so idle and bored that he went around leaving Emperor marks on people?
