Above the clouds, after the Disciples of Biluo Temple spoke of their Senior Brother's past experiences, the atmosphere became somewhat heavy.
A moment later, Ming Yu reacted and said, "That was something from many years ago. Let's not bring it up again, lest it makes everyone feel troubled."
Today was a day to be happy, after all, Qiuyun Valley used to have people die every year.
But this year, they were able to return unharmed, which was something truly worth celebrating.
The others immediately nodded in agreement, feeling that his words were correct.
They immediately changed the topic.
As he thought this, Ming Xiu, who was beside him, remembered something and then looked at He Xiuyuan.
"Speaking of which, there's something I'd like to ask He Fellow Daoist."
"Oh, what is it?"
He Xiuyuan listened to his words, his heart filled with curiosity.
"Previously, I saw Fellow Daoist performing a Spell from afar at the valley entrance. I saw that you should have had a whisk, but looking at you now, I don't see that whisk?"
Ming Xiu said, observing He Xiuyuan up and down.
When he came earlier, he didn't see He Xiuyuan with a whisk in his hand, so where did this whisk come from?
Thinking of this, Ming Xiu was very curious.
The other fellow Disciples, hearing this, all looked at He Xiuyuan, their eyes full of curiosity.
"Yes, from afar earlier, it seemed Fellow Daoist had a whisk in his hand."
He Xiuyuan thought the other party had something important to ask, but he didn't expect it to be about this.
Thinking of this, He Xiuyuan immediately took the brush from his waist, placed it in his palm, then gave it a slight flick, injecting Spiritual Qi into the brush. The brush instantly transformed into a whisk.
Ming Xiu and the others stared wide-eyed at this sight, their gaze fixed on the whisk in He Xiuyuan's hand.
Even Daoist Qingxiao, who was beside them, couldn't help but turn his head to look after noticing this scene.
When he saw the whisk in He Xiuyuan's hand, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
He had previously thought He Xiuyuan was extraordinary, but he didn't expect He Xiuyuan to possess such ability.
Is this still a Cultivator from the Mortal Realm?
When did Cultivators from the Mortal Realm become so powerful?
How did He Xiuyuan refine such a treasure?
His Disciples shared the same thoughts as Daoist Qingxiao.
Ming Xiu and the others looked at He Xiuyuan, their hearts filled with admiration as their gaze constantly swept over He Xiuyuan's whisk.
Previously, they hadn't noticed the brush on He Xiuyuan's waist, only considering it an ornament.
Now, it was clear how extraordinary this item was.
The whisk was as white as fresh snow, and it looked incredibly soft and delicate.
Compared to the whisk in He Xiuyuan's hand, his Junior Martial Uncle's whisk seemed...
The Disciples thought of this and couldn't help but look at the whisk in their Junior Martial Uncle's hand.
Compared to it, their Junior Martial Uncle's whisk was too dirty, and also quite unremarkable. When compared like this, it was simply unpresentable.
Daoist Qingxiao clearly noticed the Disciples' gazes and subtly moved his whisk to the side, concealing it.
Seeing this, everyone didn't expose him, but instead asked curiously.
"He Fellow Daoist, how did you acquire this whisk? It is truly miraculous!"
Ming Xiu looked at the whisk in He Xiuyuan's hand, his eyes filled with envy. He was truly tempted by this item!
Moreover, he felt that this whisk was also somewhat extraordinary, perhaps it could be something that increases the power of Spells.
"This whisk..."
He Xiuyuan saw the other party asking about the whisk's origin, lowered his head to look at the whisk, and then said, "This item was given by a celestial crane. Previously, in the Mount Shi Fang, I saw a celestial crane fighting a Prodigy. The celestial crane drew down heavenly lightning, intending to perish together with that Prodigy..."
He Xiuyuan paused here, thinking of what the others had just said.
After a brief silence, He Xiuyuan continued, "After I saw it, I diverted the heavenly lightning, directing it completely onto that Prodigy, and fortunately, I slew him."
"Later, the celestial crane seemed to repay me by giving me this item."
Hiss....
Diverting heavenly lightning?
He Fellow Daoist has such a method?
Before, they had only considered He Xiuyuan an ordinary Cultivator. What was he thinking earlier?!
That was heavenly lightning! He Xiuyuan was actually able to divert heavenly lightning without harm!!
Everyone stared at He Xiuyuan, their hearts utterly shocked.
This person before them was not a Fellow Daoist, but clearly a Senior!
Daoist Qingxiao, who was beside him, was also shocked by He Xiuyuan's words at this moment, and instinctively turned his head to look at He Xiuyuan.
"He Fellow Daoist can actually divert heavenly lightning without harm?"
He Xiuyuan saw everyone's shocked expressions, knowing they were stunned by his words, and immediately said quickly.
"Mainly, I used a trick. If I were to truly face this heavenly lightning head-on, I would surely die."
At that time, he only touched it a little, and the heavenly lightning almost wiped him out.
Thinking about it carefully now, He Xiuyuan still felt some lingering fear.
So, He Xiuyuan could understand why these Fellow Daoists were so shocked at this moment.
But then again, that heavenly lightning was truly powerful! If he could find an opportunity to make heavenly lightning strike, and then repeat the method from before, using this heavenly lightning as a lightning Spell, wouldn't its power be incredibly formidable?
If that were the case, even if he encountered some Prodigies with extremely high Dao cultivation, he would seemingly have the ability to contend with them.
But wanting to make the heavens drop heavenly lightning, this seemed a bit difficult. He Xiuyuan still didn't know how to easily make heavenly lightning fall.
Could it be by cursing the Heavenly Dao a few times? And then the heavenly lightning would fall?
He Xiuyuan's heart jolted at this thought, and then he quickly shook his head, no, no, if he angered the heavens like that, he wouldn't have a good outcome later on.
How did the celestial crane from before draw down heavenly lightning? Should he ask the celestial crane later? It seems Biluo Temple also has a method to draw down heavenly lightning, right? He Xiuyuan secretly pondered in his heart.
Hearing He Xiuyuan's answer, their respect for He Xiuyuan remained undiminished.
Even if He Xiuyuan used other methods and cheated, what of it?
At the very least, He Xiuyuan succeeded, and this was something only someone with immense ability could achieve.
At the very least, they didn't even know how to draw down this heavenly lightning, let alone survive under it.
"From now on, when you meet He Fellow Daoist, remember to address him as Senior."
Daoist Qingxiao looked at He Xiuyuan, then his gaze fell on his Disciples, and he earnestly instructed them.
He Fellow Daoist's ability had already far exceeded his expectations, and as for these Disciples, they could only address him as Senior.
