Beauty and the Bodyguard

Chapter 5275: Learning the rejuvenation of withered leaves

Translator: 549690339

“Good. There is only one essence to the ‘rejuvenation of the withered leaves’, and that is to open the hidden door of life.” Duanmu Yu slowly said.

“A hidden door of life?” Lin Yi blinked.

“Do you know that all of our spirit leaf sect’s mental cultivation techniques and moves come from the same source? they all come from the most ordinary yet most extraordinary thing in the world.” Duanmu Yu said.

“Ye?” Lin Yi’s eyes brightened-it wasn’t hard to guess. The name of the spirit leaf sect explained everything, and all of its moves had the word “leaf” in them-like a falling leaf knowing autumn, like a leaf like a mountain, like a withered leaf returning to spring.

“That’s right, it’s a leaf. The birth and fall of a leaf represents the reincarnation of the world. When people see a green leaf, they see life. When they see a dead leaf, they see death. However, they don’t know that the two are mutually reinforcing. When the green leaf has killing intent, the dead leaf has a day of return.” Duanmu Yu paused and took out a yellow leaf, handing it to Lin Yi.”Feel it.”

Lin Yi took the leaf and looked at it-it was different from what he expected. There was nothing unusual about it, and there was no Qi hidden on it. It was just a normal leaf.

But after thinking about Duanmu Yu’s words for a while, an idea came to him.”You mean, this withered leaf also has vitality that ordinary people can’t see?”

Duanmu Yu’s face was filled with a surprised expression when he heard this. This fellow’s comprehension ability was a bit too abnormal. When he first obtained the withered leaf, he had to comprehend it for an entire day before he could understand this principle. Compared to the other disciples of the same sect, this was considered fast. Some people had comprehended for an entire month and still couldn’t understand anything. They didn’t even have the qualifications to practice the withered leaf rejuvenation.

Of course, Duanmu Yu wasn’t too surprised after seeing how Lin Yi broke through the mirror world. Comprehension was closely related to one’s observation skills, and Lin Yi’s observation skills were insane, so his comprehension skills wouldn’t be weak either.

“That’s right. Although the leaf has withered, it’s not really dead. There’s still a powerful vitality hidden in it, but it’s only temporarily sealed due to the environment. As long as we can open this door that seals away vitality, it can regain its vitality, which is what you see as the withered Leaf’s rejuvenation.” Duanmu Yu explained.

Lin Yi nodded. It wasn’t hard to understand-it was a metaphor for people. When a person was exhausted, they might look like they were at their peak, but it was just an instinctive self-protection mechanism. They weren’t really at the end of their rope.

“Then how can I open this door that seals away all life?” Lin Yi asked. This was the key to the problem.

Duanmu Yu was silent for a moment before he said,”You only need to do two things. One is self-hypnosis, and the other is to stimulate the acupoints with true Qi.”

Strictly speaking, she’d already pointed out the cultivation method with that-she couldn’t say anything more, or it’d be the same as teaching Lin Yi the skill herself. Even if she was the big sister of the spirit leaf sect, she didn’t have the right to do that.

However, Lin Yi didn’t need her to say anything more. With Lin Yi’s comprehension, these two sentences were enough. He could figure out what to do next on his own, and there was no need to put Duanmu Yu in a difficult position.

“Many thanks.” Lin Yi cupped his hands in thanks. He only asked this for reference since he hadn’t tried it out yet. He didn’t know how much valuable things he could get from it, but one thing was for sure-everything the man said was true. It was worth thinking about.

“Now can you tell me about your matter?” Duanmu Yu said with anticipation.

“Well, as you saw just now, I have a private space. With a thought, I can put things from the real world into it, but only plants and some ordinary items. As for humans, they can ‘t. Of course, primordial spirits can go in.” Lin Yi explained. He couldn’t tell Lin Dongfang where he got this Jade space since it was related to his background and he didn’t really know much about it.

“A private space?” Even though Duanmu Yu had already seen it with his own eyes, he was still dumbstruck when he heard this word. Such a thing had never been heard of or seen before. Perhaps even those Yuanying stage old monsters in the small Jianghu of the immemorial era did not have such a divine weapon. He could not help but be surprised and suspicious.”Who are you?”

Lin Yi couldn’t help but roll his eyes. This was protector water Lotus’s reaction, and Duanmu Yu’s reaction. He had to be patient, “I’m not some divine being, I’m just a lump of primordial spirit, that’s all,”

“Are you really just an archaic senior of the green cloud School on the North Island?” Duanmu Yu, however, did not quite believe this. He asked doubtfully,”But why are your moves completely different from those of the green cloud School in Beidao? they’re completely different.”

From the ancient times to the present, the time span was too long. Even if the same sect was passed down, the mental cultivation methods and moves would inevitably change a lot, but not to the extent that the methods would be completely different. That was almost equivalent to establishing a different sect. The three gates of the northern island were publicly recognized as the sect with the most inheritance history in the small Jianghu of the ancient times. There had never been a major disaster such as the extermination of the sect in the records. It was unlikely that even the most basic mental cultivation methods and moves would have such a big deviation.

There were only two possible explanations for this. One was that Lin Yi had learned too many things, and he had his own sect. The other was that Lin Yi wasn’t an ancient elder of the blue cloud sect.

The leaf spirit sect placed great importance on the subconscious “instinctive perception. As the senior Sister of the leaf spirit sect, Duanmu Yu was naturally the best in this aspect. A woman’s intuition was very accurate to begin with, and her intuition was far above most women.

Her intuition told her that Lin Yi belonged to the latter-he didn’t look like an ancient senior at all, but a real young man, probably even younger than her.

“Oh, I’m not one to begin with.” Lin Yi said honestly.

“Ha? Then why do they still call you martial granduncle?” Duanmu Yu said in shock. The normal disciples of the green cloud sect were more likely to be tricked, but Xin Yijie was a golden core stage master. How could Lin Yi trick him?

“It’s a long story. Although I’m not their true martial granduncle, I do have a connection with them in this aspect. There’s nothing wrong with them calling me martial granduncle.” Lin Yi smiled. Since they were already at this point, he might as well make things clear,”You know Sky Class Island, right?”

“Of course I know, but it’s just an illusory legend in the ancient martial world.” Duanmu Yu said. In the past year in the secular world, she and the other disciples of the immemorial Alliance had heard some rumors about the existence of heaven rank islands. However, their original knowledge was deeply rooted in their minds, so they subconsciously scoffed at it and didn’t take it seriously.
