Dream Dao Attainment, Opening Scheme Against Cultivators
Dream-Making Expert
“How was this move?”
Deep within the valley, in the palace.
Amidst curling wisps of incense.
Lin Qi, in his Azure Daoist Robe, ethereal and otherworldly, sipped tea and played chess.
After placing a piece, Lin Qi suddenly smiled and turned his head to ask.
Daoist Juntian, buried in the garden, was relying on his nimble mouth to write furiously, silently transcribing ancient and profound scriptures.
Hearing Lin Qi’s question, he worked his sore jaw and said irritably.
“This Venerable can’t even see it! How would I know how your move was?”
“Why don’t you let This Venerable out first?”
“This Venerable has also studied the mysteries of chess before. I could surely give you a pointer or two.”
“A move this brilliant, and you truly cannot see it?”
“Then that is truly a pity.”
Lin Qi sighed, showing no intention of letting Daoist Juntian out, and placed the piece in his hand back into the chess box.
Leaving the unfinished game on the table untouched, he explained to Daoist Juntian with great interest.
“The game I am playing now.”
“Was reconstructed by a Fellow Daoist of mine, who exhausted the power of the Cosmos and applied his own spiritual wisdom, into an ancient endgame of ten thousand years.”
“Every step is truly a killing trap, making me tread as if on thin ice.”
“I studied it for a long time, and only today did I finally place a piece.”
“I do not know if it is good or bad.”
“But ultimately, no outsider knows, so I still have the chance to take it back.”
“A placed piece knows no regret, and moreover, if you wish no one to know, do not do it yourself.”
Daoist Juntian answered instinctively, then saw Lin Qi smiling at him.
Daoist Juntian felt inexplicably seen through, and immediately shut his mouth, once again biting the brush and silently transcribing scriptures.
Seeing that Daoist Juntian had gone silent.
Lin Qi did not bring up the chess game again. He stood up and picked up the ancient, profound scriptures Daoist Juntian had written today.
Silently reciting them, he nodded slightly and praised.
“Fellow Daoist Juntian truly lives up to being an outstanding figure of a great Cosmos.”
“The profundity of your Dao is mysterious, yet it is all within your heart, Fellow Daoist.”
“Now you bring it forth at your fingertips; these mere jottings have broadened my horizons greatly. They carry the wonder of a sharp shout and a sudden enlightenment.”
As he spoke, Lin Qi cupped his hands toward Daoist Juntian. His address had also changed from Old Thief Juntian to Fellow Daoist Juntian.
Seeing Lin Qi change his face like this.
Daoist Juntian felt smug.
Though he currently suffered the Five Signs of Decay, had no strength to truss a chicken, was covered in filth, and had fallen into the dust.
The knowledge in his heart could still, regardless, be considered the learning of a heaven-endowed scholar.
