Seeing Ning Cheng’s gaze fall on Le Xizhen, the face of Le Jiesheng on the listening dan table sank. He knew full well that Ning Cheng would never be a match for Xie Zhen in the Dan debate, but he was still upset in his heart.
He would let this little creature know when Rui Zhen had crushed him to the point where he could not get up. He, Le Jiesheng, was good at talking, not easy to bully. Even a little Shaping Dao Saint Emperor dared to disrespect the Le Family.
Without waiting for Ning Cheng to speak, Le Xie Zhen said with a faint smile, “It looks like Dan Master Ning is going to challenge me?”
Ning Cheng clasped his fist, “I would also like to ask Dan Master Le to be unsparing in his teachings.”
Seeing that Ning Cheng had already issued a challenge to Le Xi Zhen, Saint Emperor Qing Yi directly said, “Dan Master Le may propose three Dan competition topics of any kind that have to do with alchemy, and Dan Master Ning may not have any objections. The challenge now begins.”
Saint Emperor Qingyi did not want to offend Ning Cheng, nor did he want to offend Le Xi Zhen, so after announcing the start of the challenge, he handed the two Great Derivative Divine Fruits to Le Xi Zhen who walked up and hurriedly got off the dan platform.
Le Xi Zhen walked onto the Dan platform and first made a Dan Master’s salute to the Dan listening crowd in the square before walking across to Ning Cheng and sitting down calmly, “Since Dan Master Ning wants to challenge me, please come up with a question.”
Ning Cheng stretched out his hand and said unhurriedly, “According to the rules, I am the challenger, so it should be Master Dan Le who will ask the question.”
Le Xi Zhen laughed, “Good, the newborn is fearsome, then I will ask Master Ning Dan, Dan is also the first of the Dao, the Dao of Dan is like the door of the Xuanmu, condensing the root of heaven and earth, achieving the essence of the origin, the cultivation is necessary. The Dan skill is like the key to open the door, which originates from the mysterious mare, and is the foundation of the Dan Dao, does Master Ning think so?”
Ning Cheng understood what Le Xi Zhen meant, that is, the beginning of the Dan Dao was to gather the original essence of all the spiritual herbs in heaven and earth. This thought was not abrupt, many Dan masters, even Ning Cheng, also thought so. However, later on, Le Xi Zhen said that precisely because the Dan Dao came from the refinement of all things in heaven and earth, the Dan techniques for refining pills were also based on the original characteristics of all things in heaven and earth to find out. He wanted to ask Ning Cheng if this view was correct.
No Dan master would feel that this viewpoint was incorrect.
Ning Cheng, however, smiled, “Perhaps this is the Dan Dao philosophy of Dan Master Le, but I don’t think so. Just as Senior Qiu Tian said about the Great Dan Dao and the Lesser Dan Dao, every Dan master who has just started would think that the Dan technique originates from the spiritual origin and is the key to initiation. Once you have stepped into the Great Dan Dao, you will know that the Dan Skill is really an external object.
The path of alchemy changes according to the rules of heaven and earth, the thickness of the surrounding energy, and the state of mind of the alchemist, so how can it be bound to the Dan recipe? When you fully understand the path of the Dao of Dan, you will look back and laugh and say, “What is the Dao of Dan?”
These words of Ning Cheng’s were not a pretense of profundity. He seldom used the Dan Skill in refining pills, not because he did not understand the Dan Skill, but because his Dan Dao was indeed different from others’ Dan Dao. He cultivated Xuanhuang Wufang, and even if he did, the techniques he cultivated were different every moment, not to mention refining pills. After coming out of the Land of Broken Rules, he had a deeper understanding of this change in the rules of heaven and earth, which was why he had said such things.
Even if he sometimes used the Dan technique, the Dan technique for each potion was different. It was because he had this skill that this was the reason why he could instruct Jian Sanshan to refine an extremely high quality Dao-shaping divine Pill.
Le Xi Zhen froze, he had long set up a trap for Ning Cheng to step down. As long as Ning Cheng thought that this point of view was correct, then he would continue to ask about the forming of the Dan Skill and why it was based on the transformation of all things. He had studied the Dan Dao for countless years and was incredibly proficient in these Dan Dao ideas, and even more so, he was able to cite a source. Not to mention one Ning Cheng, even if there were ten thousand Ning Chengs, they would not be his match.
Who knew that Ning Cheng did not follow the usual rules and dared to say that he did not agree with his own views. No, this was not his own opinion, this was the accepted opinion of the Dan Dao. Even if Ning Cheng did not agree with this universally accepted view of the Dan Dao, it was not enough that he dared to say that once he truly stepped into the hall of the Dan Dao, he could even dispense with the Dan Skill. This was simply shameless and nonsense.
Le Xi Zhen’s face turned blue with anger, this was not a discussion on Dan, it was complete nonsense. It was a disgrace to discuss Dan with such a person.
Not to mention Le Xi Zhen, even the Dan Masters in the entire square stared at Ning Cheng in anger. It was fine to be in the limelight, but this kind of shamelessness in the limelight was already offending the entire Dan Masters who were pursuing the Dan Dao. Who did not want to refine a Dan Dao? Who dared to say that dan refining had to change according to the changes in the rules of the surrounding heaven and earth anymore?
“Get off ……”
“Scum of the Dan Dao world ……”
“With just one mouth, you dare to come and challenge the five major Dan Masters of the Dan Discourse Event?”
……
The crowd was in an uproar, and the entire Dan Discourse Square seemed to be somewhat out of control. Jian Sanshan, Yan Ji and the others were all looking at Ning Cheng with worried faces.
On such a big occasion, once Ning Cheng committed a big mistake, it was unlikely that anyone would be able to stop Ning Cheng even if others wanted to kill him.
Sheng Houtian had a worried look on his face, he knew that it was likely that Ning Cheng was not lying. This was because he had seen Ning Cheng on the side when he was refining pills. His divine sense could not probe Ning Cheng’s dan furnace, yet he could feel that Ning Cheng really did not seem to be using the dan technique.
He was then shocked, so Ning Cheng had touched the kind of Great Dan realm he was talking about? It was a pity that his strength was still a little short, if he was at the Mixed Yuan realm, he might be able to understand more easily what Ning Cheng said, ‘Pill refining also changes according to the changes in the rules of the surrounding heaven and earth’.
Le Xi Zhen suddenly stood up and cupped his fist to the Dan Guild’s Guild Master, Si Chen Qiu Tian, “Senior Qiu Tian, this person is not here to challenge the Dan Discourse at all, he is here to mess up the Dan Discourse event.”
Without waiting for Si Chuan Qiu Tian to say anything, Ning Cheng sneered and said, “So what you can’t do, others are just messing around? Do you still want to be shameless? I’ve heard that the Barbarian Dragon Clan still has a Dao Harmonization powerhouse, it’s just that no one has ever seen it. You won’t be able to achieve Dao Harmony in your lifetime, so according to you, that Dao Harmony powerhouse from the Barbarian Dragon Clan is also faking it? A fake?”
When Barbarian Huishan heard Ning Cheng’s words, he snorted coldly, “Ning Cheng, if you ignore what you said, don’t blame me for being ungracious.”
He was the Dragon Emperor of the Barbarian Dragon Clan, so he could naturally feel what Ning Cheng meant, Ning Cheng was not only striking at Le Xi Zhen. At the same time, he was also telling the other clans that no one knew whether the Barbarian Dragon Clan had a Dao Harmonization powerhouse or not. This invariably lowered the prestige of the Barbarian Dragon Clan and put pressure on other clans.
Ning Cheng cupped his fist and said with a heated smile, “I only respect Dao Harmonization powerhouses, since the Barbarian Dragon Emperor doesn’t want me to mention it, then I won’t mention it.”
Once again, Savage Huishan coldly hummed and ignored Ning Cheng.
Le Xi Zhen, who had long since decided that Ning Cheng was talking nonsense, did not even look at Ning Cheng and still bowed to ask the Dan Guild Master to judge.
Si Chen Qiu Tian slowly said, “There are thousands of dan dao, and each one of them is based on what they have obtained from their own dan dao, so the Dan Guild will not make a choice based on the fact that the discussion is not practical. What we don’t know, maybe someone else does. What we think is impossible may seem normal to others.
In fact, I have tried not to use the Dan Dao and it was proven afterwards that it did not work. Originally I thought it was unfeasible too, and as I moved up a level in both my cultivation and Dan Dao, touching the edge of the Great Dan Dan Dao, I vaguely thought that perhaps I was just not up to scratch. So this is not considered nonsense, and the two of them hold their own views on Dan for the time being.”
Temporarily each holding means that for the time being there will be no winner, and when the time comes to refute the Dan, if one proves the point with one’s own Dan Dao, then the winner of the previous Dan debate will also be changed from no winner to the winner of the refutation.
Even this did not count as Ning Cheng losing, and many people instantly remembered Ning Cheng’s friendship with the Dan Society’s Sung Hou Tian. It looked like Ning Cheng’s friendship with Sheng Houtian had affected the Guild Master, Si Chuan Qiu Tian. Only a very few cultivators who knew about Si Chen Qiu Tian’s character did not think so.
Le Xi Zhen obviously also thought that it was because of the factor of Sheng Houtian, and he was so indignant in his heart that he no longer had the idea of discussing pills with Ning Cheng and then giving him a lecture. A person like Ning Cheng was not worthy of discussing pills with him, and he said in a cold voice, “Since Master Ning has crossed into the ranks of the Great Dao of Dan, then please refine a pill for us without using the Dan Skill?”
Ning Cheng’s tone also turned cold, “Who do you think you are? I want to perform in front of you to refine a pill without using the Dan Skill? Who am I to teach you, who are you?”
“Haha ……” Le Xi Zhen laughed back in anger and directly threw out a white Dao-shaping Dan Saint qualification token, and said in a gloomy tone, “Since I am the one to mention the rules of the competition, then you should produce a Dao-shaping Dan Saint qualification token, if If you don’t have one, you lose and get off the stage.”
His way of proposing the competition was completely bullying now, and this way of bullying did not go against his means of proposing the rules of the competition. The Dan Club qualification card, too, had something to do with alchemy. If you didn’t pass the Dan Club verification, you wouldn’t get a qualification medal at all.
All the people understood what Le Xi Zhen was thinking, and they all felt relieved. Aren’t you very good? I don’t even bother to compete with you in alchemy now, I am a Dao-shaping Dan Saint, how about you? Can you take out the Dao Shaping Dan Saint qualification card and prove that you are a Dao Shaping Dan Saint? You can’t get it out, so get lost, because you’ve lost.
Ning Cheng smiled faintly, he was annoyed and started comparing diplomas. Comparing what things, you, Le Xi Zhen, are also one word, lose.
He didn’t even bother to say anything, and similarly threw out a white Dao Shaping Dan Saint’s qualification token.
“You are a Dao Shaping Dan Saint? Why did you …… frown at the white Dao Shaping Dan Saint qualification token that Ning Cheng took out before, and was somewhat puzzled.
Without waiting for him to finish his sentence, Ning Cheng said, “You didn’t take it out before, did you? All I need to enter the Illusory Fruit Garden is the Dao-shaping Dan God qualification token. It would be fine for me to enter this place with only the Dao-shaping Dan God’s qualification token, can’t it be that I have to hang all my Dan Master qualification tokens on my body? Afraid that others won’t know that I’m a Dao-shaping Dan Saint?”
Le Xi Zhen surprisingly did not get angry and once again took out a silver Dao Shaping Dan Saint qualification token, then did not say anything and just stared at Ning Cheng.
