A life of clearness

Chapter 570 Qibao
The door of the hut was open facing outwards. Rong Qing was not surprised, but was surprised that the child who was playing in the yard was missing.

Is this, clearing the field for her?

Rong Qing suppressed the doubts in her heart and stopped outside the door, "Disciple greets Master."

"Enter."

She responded in a low voice, bowed and walked into the house.

The interior decoration was the same as before. Rong Qing found her usual sitting spot and knelt down, with the hem of her Taoist robe hanging on both sides like butterfly wings.

"How are you now?" Taoist Li Tao looked at her with interest.

Rong Qing pursed her lips and borrowed Cong Ji's words: "Everything is fine." She then said, "Thank you, Master, for your concern about this matter."

He smiled and waved his hand.

"After all, this is a matter of life and death, and I am very curious about the outcome. In any case, it is good as long as the result is good."

"I understand this principle in my heart."

"But you seem very unconvinced?"

"I am at the mercy of others, and everything is calculated by others. How can I be happy? Even if I get a lot, it is no different from a dog begging for food. All the good fortune can be given to me generously today, and can be taken away at will tomorrow. What's more..."

Taoist Li Tao raised his hand to stop Rong Qing from speaking. The Lord of Immortality's time is precious, and he is not here to listen to his disciples' complaints.

"So you plan to use the Path of Karma to turn the tide?"

"It's not really a turn of events. I just want to use the law of cause and effect to slightly alleviate the passive situation."

She couldn't remain indifferent and at the mercy of others forever.

Rong Qing opened her palm, and in her hand was a white jade pen that was broken into two pieces.

She said softly, "Yes."

Once this was said, it was like a golden rule. Even dead things had to obey it.

The two halves of the pen shaft merged into one in front of Rong Qing and Taoist Li Tao, as if they had never been broken.

"Master once asked me what karma is like in my eyes. Now in my eyes, karma is just like this pen. Even if it is tightly closed, it is broken. It is hard to undo what has been spilled, and it is hard to make up for what has been broken. This is the crack, the weakness of things, and their weakness."

No matter how fine the cracks on the pen were, Rong Qing could see them.

"No matter how perfect the cause and effect is, there are inherent cracks. As long as you find the cracks and follow the weakness, you can easily destroy the cause and effect. And the more exquisite something is, the more it fears destruction. No matter how powerful the fortune teller is and how accurate the prediction is, the more fragile he will be when he encounters destruction."

The method Rong Qing came up with was consistent with the principle of the origin of force. By finding the "weak spot" on the boulder, the tiger's tail could smash the boulder into pieces with one whip.

But the problem is...

"Can you see the weakness in this karma of yours?"

Taoist Li Tao smiled and took the jade pen from Rong Qing's hand into his own. The cracks that were invisible to the naked eye were undoubtedly very obvious to him. He gently turned the pen with his fingers, waiting for Rong Qing's answer.

weakness?

She already knew it in her mind.

"This weakness is me." Rong Qing retracted her hand and clenched her fist on her leg. "Dead objects are easy to control, but living objects are different after all. Mirrors are afraid of falling and breaking, and even stones are afraid of being broken into pieces. But only living things are born different from dead objects. They are not afraid of being hurt, but have the ability to grow from adversity. The cause and effect created by 'they' for me is perfect, and they cannot completely control me. I am the only variable in this cause and effect, so I am also the only weakness." Taoist Li Tao nodded: "It is always easy to see others, but it is difficult to see yourself. You can figure this out and it can be regarded as a glimpse of the cause and effect. Since there are fortune tellers who point out the way, there are naturally fortune breakers who act against the will of heaven. After all, not everyone is willing to obey the will of heaven. The fortune teller is given by the way of heaven, while the fortune breaker is the persistence of the cultivator of the way of cause and effect. If you are determined, you can try this path. Whether it succeeds or not, you will not have too many regrets if you try it yourself."

Rong Qinglian said: "If it weren't for Master's guidance, I wouldn't be able to figure it out so quickly."

"Oh, there's no need to flatter me." Taoist Li Tao also spoke directly, "You and I help each other. I will teach you the skills of karma. Of course, I will need your help in the future. Don't worry, you can certainly help me."

Of course Rong Qing would not refuse.

"The law of cause and effect has countless wonderful uses. As you gradually become familiar with it, you will experience the fun of manipulating cause and effect in the world." Taoist Li Tao hung the jade pen in his hand on the pen holder, then took out a new one from the drawer and gave it to her, along with a jade box the size of a palm.

"This is?"

Rong Qing was not surprised to be given a new pen. After all, it was a pen that was forcibly connected using the Word Spirit Technique. It was connected, but how could the head of the library not see it? The compensation still had to be paid. Taoist Li Tao gave her a new one, meaning to help her make up for it.

But this jade box?
Taoist Li Tao motioned for her to open it.

Rong Qing brushed off the crude restriction on the box with half doubt and half curiosity, and opened the lock.

I saw an almost completely transparent pointed ear lying in it, faintly reflecting colorful light, which was definitely not an ordinary object.

Taoist Li Tao, who was sitting at the head of the group, slowly explained: "This is the fin ear of a mermaid. A good friend of mine obtained this ear from the mermaid king and gave it to me. Later, I asked someone to refine it into a treasure that can be used by cultivators. You must be wondering what the mermaid king's ear is for. Indeed, compared to other magical weapons, it is not very useful in attacking. But if it is placed in the way of cause and effect, it can be called a rare treasure...

There are a pair of eyes in this world that can see through the past, present and future, from the smallest mustard seed to the largest universe, and can see everything. Similarly, there are three pairs of ears that can hear all sounds, whether it is the subtle sound of a flower blooming or the secret words in the heart of a monk, and can hear everything. "

These three pairs of ears couldn’t be... Rong Qing looked at the transparent fin ears in the box with a complicated expression.

"Mermaids are born with three pairs of fin ears, but not every mermaid has this ability. Only three pairs of ears can truly hear everything, and the one in your hand is one of them. Although it is not a complete set of six ears, in terms of power..." Taoist Li Tao assured, "It is enough to be in its prime state."

"With this treasure, you can try to decipher the cause and effect."

But why does the tone sound like he is looking forward to a good show? Rong Qing is very suspicious whether Taoist Li Tao has used the specialness of this treasure to do something that harms others and benefits himself.

"Can I take it?"

Taoist Li Tao understood what Rong Qing was worried about.

"This treasure is a treasure of the soul, similar to a natal magic weapon, and it can naturally accompany you for a long time." Of course, it also includes the fact that after Rong Qing leaves the inheritance, the Mermaid Ear can follow her back to the world.

Taoist Li Tao had said so, so why should she be worried? She immediately used her spiritual consciousness to recognize the master.

Rong Qing thought: There is no test at all to recognize the master. Yes, this treasure belongs to the Lord of Immortality, and this is the biggest test.

After acknowledging her master, she raised her hand and put the Mermaid King's Ear into her sleeve, storing it in the Mustard Seed Domain.

"Okay, now that I have given you my treasure, you can return this pen to the library and leave."

Leaving means leaving the heritage.

Rong Qing couldn't help but look up at Taoist Li Tao. A middle-aged male cultivator with ordinary looks was also looking at her.

"Will we meet again in the Forest of All Dharma Steles?"

Taoist Li Tao promised: "I will definitely be able to do it."
