Chapter 1245 – True God’s Path

Chapter 1245 – True God’s Path

…

Qin Yu waited for some time, but what faced him was the increasingly complex look in the eyes of the Spring Master. It left him feeling uneasy.

“Master…”

He was interrupted with a wave of the hand. The Spring Master said, “Put away your God mark.”

This…was there no cure?

Qin Yu’s heart was heavy, but he also felt some disbelief. Everything had been going well so far. Moreover, he also had Old Turtle, someone who feared death to the peak. If there really was a problem with his God mark, he would have definitely said something by now.

Maybe he wouldn’t have before, but now they were both grasshoppers on the same rope. That fellow wouldn’t dare to conceal it!

Something wasn’t right!

Putting away the God mark, Qin Yu’s thoughts were in chaos. He looked at the Spring Master, unsure of what to say.

His only thought was that if there was a problem with his God mark, would the Spring Master still consider him as part of the squad of four and a half people? If he was kicked out, would he be in danger? After all, he knew too many things.

Everything was fine and dandy, so how did things reach this point? Had he been too arrogant in his title as a Dual Saint Slayer, and finally received heavenly punishment?

The Spring Master took a deep breath and slowly exhaled. Although this was somewhat unbelievable, in the end this was good news.

The Spring Master had seen far too many youths with outstanding talent, great work ethic, and wonderful prospects…who just happened to lose their life as soon as they walked out, perishing midway.

So luck was a factor that could not be ignored!

There was nothing to say about Qin Yu’s background, but now that he looked carefully, his luck was excellent. If so, his future could be expected.

Then why do I still feel some indignation?

Could this be envy?

Hum hum, how could this be possible? I am a True Saint who reached the other shore, just a step away from becoming a Ruler! It would take just a finger for me to crush this brat Qin Yu!

I would envy him? What a joke!

But the Spring Master’s complexion grew increasingly ugly. This was because he could deceive others, but not himself. The more fiercely he tried to deny this, the more it proved something.

Because he really did feel indignant!

Why?

As a True Saint, even I don’t dare to try this self-condensing God mark method. Yet, this kid Qin Yu had casually messed around and succeeded.

Not only had he succeeded, he was very successful, so successful that it was unbelievable! It took the endless galaxy and strung it down as a curtain of falling beads!

The reason why legends were legends was that basically no one had seen them with their own eyes. But today, a legend had been confirmed. As someone who personally experienced it, it was absolutely a show of the Spring Master’s prowess in concealing his emotions that he could remain so calm.

Stand firm!

Hold on!

As a True Saint, how could I be easily stunned by my own disciple?

Even if I am stunned, I cannot reveal any of it.

Otherwise, how will I lead the squad in the future? And where will I put the dignity of the Saint’s path and a teacher’s respect?

The Spring Master lightly coughed, “Don’t easily show this God mark of yours to anyone else in the future. Don’t ask why, just do it.”

He didn’t want to explain. At least not today.

I am a Saint and I am that capricious!

Qin Yu was relieved. Although this was all he was told so far, it seemed the situation was different from what he thought.

Did this mean he was fine?

The Spring Master didn’t say anything, but his eyes already expressed his attitude.

The Spring Master’s chest tumbled and he coldly snorted, “It's fine. Your God mark is very good, but it's different from what I thought…” After a pause, he eventually couldn’t help it and showed some of his emotion, “A True God’s path. There aren’t many people in the entire vast brightness that would dare to take such a road.”

Qin Yu blinked his eyes, “Master, what is the True God’s path?”

The Spring Master’s mentality almost collapsed.

You even condensed a River of Stars God Mark and you’re still asking me what the True God’s path is? Brat, even if you’re joking with me there’s a limit…

Uh, that’s not right. Thinking about it, Qin Yu’s background was some low-level world. In addition, he hadn’t lived for long, so it wasn’t a surprise for him to be unaware of many things within the Saint circles.

I clearly know this now, but why does it make me feel even sadder? Stand firm, stand firm, don’t show any anger!

As a True Saint boss, I have to be able to tolerate even mountains on my shoulders!

A trivial matter is not worth getting annoyed over. It’s just the True God’s path, it’s not like I haven’t seen it before.

And the fiercer Qin Yu is, the more likely it is that my daughter can be saved.

From another aspect, this meant that his eyesight and judgment of others remained as impressive as always, and he had never made a mistake before.

The Spring Master maintained his composure and said, “You said before that when you first tried to condense your God mark, it didn’t go smoothly, so then you interfered with the process and used a method of self-condensing. You should know the reason why the condensing process didn’t go smoothly, right?”

Qin Yu nodded, “Yes. Before I broke into the God boundary, I perceived too many rules, leading me to be unable to complete the condensation of the God mark.”

“For normal cultivators, before the God boundary, perceiving nine rules of the heavens and earth is the limit. Someone who condenses their God mark with nine rules can be considered to have outstanding talent. Among them, those who encounter lucky chances or have exceptional talent can condense a God mark with ten rules.”

The Spring Master looked at Qin Yu, “Count it. When you condensed your God mark, how many rules did you use?”

Qin Yu: …

He didn’t count. The problem was that even if he tried to count, he definitely wouldn’t be able to count them all. But one thing was for certain – it was definitely more than ten.

The Spring Master calmly said, “God boundary cultivators can continue to perceive the rules of the heaven and earth, and then using their God mark as the core, constantly fuse those rules into it. When some limit is reached, they can condense their God source and become an Origin God…but you are different. Because the number of rules surpasses the limit, the God mark it condenses cannot fuse with new rules, but instead exists in a juxtaposed state.

“Simply put, no matter how many more rules of the heavens and earth you manage to comprehend, while you can fuse them into your God mark and your power can be improved, you cannot condense your God source and thus it is impossible for you to step into the Origin God boundary.”

Qin Yu’s eyes flew open. Spring Master, are you joking with me here? You can call this not a problem?

True God’s path, True God’s path, I truly want to hit your head!

If he couldn’t even step into the Origin God boundary, then that meant he couldn’t find the Sea of Bitterness. His hopes of becoming a Saint no longer existed!

If he couldn’t become a Saint, how could he think about taking a step further and becoming a Ruler?

Hoho, it was time to wash up and go to sleep. Reality was too cruel! There was no room for even a dream!

Qin Yu’s expression was dire. This matter was too serious. Not only was it related to his future cultivation, it also involved the life and death of Ning Ling and You Qi.

A crippled disciple who couldn’t even become an Origin God was definitely useless. Could he still count on the Spring Master keeping his word? He’d be lucky if he wasn’t killed off with a single strike!

“Master, please help me!”

The Spring Master’s eyes twitched. He lowered his voice and roared, “You didn’t hear me clearly. Although I said that you cannot become an Origin God, your strength can be improved!”

Qin Yu thought for a moment. It seemed the Spring Master did mention this before.

The Spring Master coldly sneered, “If you really were crippled, would I be in the mood to speak so much with you? You’re smart enough, so stop pretending to be stupid in front of me!”

He took a deep breath and reminded himself to maintain his dignified demeanor. “The True God’s path is difficult to walk down, but it seems it might not be a wrong choice. After all, the seat of Ruler has been empty for such a long time. So many people have tried following the correct path, but they all failed and never saw any hopes. Perhaps taking a different path will offer you more opportunities!”

Qin Yu lightly coughed and dryly laughed, “I did have a guess, but since master never told me the truth, I could not be at ease. That is to say, there’s nothing wrong with me…and I even have a minor advantage?”

A River of Stars God Mark, True God’s path.

In addition to that, light and darkness, space and time.

When these factors were combined together, could that be called a ‘minor advantage’?

If this was a ‘minor advantage’, how could anyone else live?

The Spring Master immediately decided that he couldn’t allow Qin Yu to stay here any longer today. Otherwise, he really might ruin his image!

After all, even back then, the foundation of this True Saint was far from being comparable!

The Spring Master waved his hand.

Before Qin Yu could react, he appeared outside the courtyard.

The Spring Master’s voice was transmitted out, “Concerning your future cultivation, I have to consider it further. Go back first!”

Qin Yu more or less detected the Spring Master’s change of mind. He bowed and turned to leave, a sharp light flashing in his eyes.

From the look of things, it seemed that not only was there no problem with the God mark he formed in the past, it was actually quite good. There was also the True God’s path. He needed to go back and figure out what that was.

It was time to make up for his shortcoming in general knowledge. This thought had occurred more than once, but Qi Yu had been so busy that he had no time to spare it.

Moreover, the speed of his progress was terrifyingly fast. Before he could make progress, another problem popped up somewhere.

As expected, growing too fast was also a kind of worry, and this worry had accompanied him for many years.

What should he do? Waiting made him anxious!

If the Spring Master really cultivated a mind reading method and knew what Qin Yu was thinking, his mind might have completely collapsed and he would have had to give Qin Yu a proper lesson!

In the Spring Master’s life, he had never seen such a rampant person!
