No Way People Find Cultivation Difficult, Right?

Chapter 80: Su Changyu Is Definitely An Expert

“Help! Someone killed a ghost!”

Hearing the cries, Su Changyu and Kong Hai couldn’t help but look into the distance.

A ghostly figure appeared.

It ran towards the two in a state of panic.

There was a familiar figure chasing it.

It was Ye Ping!

Su Changyu was dumbfounded.

After searching for seven days but failing to find Ye Ping, Su Changyu had already felt overwhelmed with anxiety, but after seeing that Ye Ping was alive and well, he calmed down.

‘Why... Why is Junior Brother chasing a ghost?’

“Fellow Daoist, don’t be scared, just bear with it for a while. You’ll be able to reincarnate soon. It won’t be a loss for you.”

Ye Ping’s voice sounded as he chased behind the ghost.

As a stream of golden light struck, the ghost cultivator shrieked even more miserably.

“Golden Light of Expiation?”

As Ye Ping cast out the Golden Light of Expiation, Kong Hai, who was in the distance, was dumbfounded.

“Golden Light of Expiation?”

‘How can he have the Golden Light of Expiation?’

‘Are my eyes playing tricks on me?’

Kong Hai was dumbfounded.

It wasn’t that he hadn’t seen the Golden Light of Expiation before. He just hadn’t seen such a young person having the Golden Light of Expiation.

In the distance, the ghost cultivator that was hit by the Golden Light of Expiation shrieked in misery before turning into a white ray of light and vanishing in the blink of an eye.

After dealing with the last ghost cultivator, Ye Ping could not help but smile.

However, he was soon surprised when he saw Su Changyu because he didn’t expect to meet him there.

“Eldest Senior Brother! You’re here too.”

When Ye Ping saw Su Changyu, he immediately scurried towards him with joy and surprise in his eyes.

“Junior Brother, where have you been all these days? Don’t you know that I’ve been worried sick about you?”

Upon sight of Ye Ping who was safe and sound, Su Changyu was finally relieved.

If anything happened to Ye Ping, he wouldn’t be able to account for it.

However, Ye Ping was fortunately alright.

Perhaps because he had been living in fear for seven days, Su Changyu didn’t notice what the golden light that Ye Ping cast out just now was. After all, to him, the fact that Ye Ping was safe was already good enough.

As for the golden light, it was none of his business so long as Ye Ping was safe.

“Eldest Senior Brother, after you taught me the method of expiation, you suddenly disappeared and I didn’t know where to go, so I went to expiate the ghosts and lost track of time. Please forgive me, Senior Brother.”

Ye Ping lowered his head and listened to Su Changyu’s compliments.

“Expiation method?”

Su Changyu was slightly stunned.

‘Since when did I teach you an expiation method?’

‘I know you’re talented and good at comprehending.’

‘But don’t create trouble out of nowhere?’

Su Changyu was a little helpless.

He knew that Ye Ping was extremely gifted.

However, things were getting outrageous, and he thought that Ye Ping had already started making things up.

While Su Changyu was depressed, Kong Hai was still in a daze.

He was almost certain that the golden light that Ye Ping had cast out was the Golden Light of Expiation that he dreamed of.

‘This is so absurd.’

‘No matter how I look at it, the two of them are wastrels.’

‘How can he cast the Golden Light of Expiation?’

‘Have they been pretending all this while?’

‘Are they acting less competent than they really are?’

‘Wait...’

All of a sudden, Kong Hai couldn’t help but think of something.

He turned to look at Su Changyu.

The more he looked, the more he felt something odd.

Firstly, how could two people with mediocre cultivation levels dare to appear in the Linhe Ghost Grave?

‘Could they have come here by mistake?’

‘Is that possible?’

Even Foundation Establishment realm cultivators dared not barge into the Linhe Ghost Grave easily.

However, who would dare to take their lives lightly?

Secondly, they were just Qi Refinement cultivators, and they didn’t panic at all when they faced a ghost cultivator. In fact, even Su Changyu, who had been with him the past seven days, seemed fearless during their search for Ye Ping.

‘Is this how Qi Refinement cultivators should be behaving?’

Hence, it suddenly dawned on Kong Hai that the two of them were pretending.

‘Okay.’

‘Okay.’

‘So much for thinking that you guys were weak in cultivation and I even offered to help, but I didn’t expect you to take me for a fool.’

‘Father is right. The disciples of Dao sects do like pretending and hiding their capabilities.’

He was really furious.

Kong Hai was feeling really frustrated. He originally thought he helped to save two weaklings and was showing the friendly spirit of Buddhism.

To his surprise, he encountered two phonies.

How could Kong Hai not be upset?

However, he soon got the main point.

‘Expiation method?’

‘What expiation method can condense the Golden Light of Expiation?’

All of a sudden, Kong Hai perked up and asked the burning question in his mind.

“Patron Ye, did you just cast the Golden Light of Expiation?”

Kong Hai looked at Ye Ping.

However, after he looked at him, he was stunned.

‘What? Tenth level of Qi Refinement?’

‘Must you be so outrageous?’

‘We haven’t met in seven days and you’ve already broken through to the tenth level of Qi Refinement?’

Ye Ping’s cultivation level seven days ago was only the third level of Qi Refinement.

In the blink of an eye, he had reached the tenth level of Qi Refinement.

As a Foundation Establishment cultivator, Kong Hai could naturally see through the two people’s realms at a glance.

Cultivators of lower realms could not see through the realm of cultivators at higher realms, but the latter would be able to see the realm of the former.

That was the reason for Kong Hai’s astonishment.

Seven days ago, Ye Ping was at the third level of Qi Refinement, and seven days later, he had already reached the tenth level.

One level a day?

Wasn’t that outrageous?

‘Patron, take my advice and stop cheating, lest you end up on the God roll.’

Kong Hai was really speechless.

Ye Ping shocked him time and time again.

He was already convinced that Su Changyu and Ye Ping were definitely just pretending to be weaker than they really were.

Su Changyu, in particular.

He reckoned that Su Changyu was even stronger.

If Ye Ping was already so atrociously powerful, how could his Senior Brother be any worse?

‘He can’t be a good-for-nothing.’

Hearing Kong Hai’s question, Ye Ping answered truthfully without hiding anything.

“Venerable One, I don’t know what this golden light is called, but it’s quite good for dealing with ghost cultivators.”

Ye Ping stretched out his hand, and in a flash, the Golden Light of Expiation spread on his palm.

Kong Hai’s eyes were full of shock.

He could sense that it was the Golden Light of Expiation.

Besides, Ye Ping’s Golden Light of Expiation was very pure and much stronger than his master’s.

It was extremely absurd.

Ye Ping seemed to only be in his early twenties and was definitely not an old cultivator pretending to be young because Ye Ping was full of vigor. Cultivators could deduce one’s age using blood Qi.

Rejuvenated cultivators wouldn’t be too vigorous.

In other words, Ye Ping was in his early twenties and had already condensed the Golden Light of Expiation.

Besides, he was already 25 years old and still lacked more than 400 power of merit to condense the first Golden Buddha Body. He would take at least another five to ten years to nurture the Golden Light of Expiation.

In an instant, Kong Hai felt sour about it.

On the other hand, Su Changyu couldn’t help but be shocked.

Although he did not know what it was, it felt impressive.

‘Why did Ye Ping say that I had passed it on to him?’

‘Has Little Junior Brother become so strong that he can communicate with the gods?’

“Patron Ye, I have a request, can you let me see this expiation sutra of yours.”

Kong Hai asked awkwardly after coming back to his senses.

Although he knew it was a bit inappropriate to ask this, he really wanted to see what kind of expiation sutra it was that could make a person condense the Golden Light of Expiation at such a young age.

“Huh? You have to ask my Senior Brother, he imparted it to me.”

Hearing this, Ye Ping was not displeased, but mainly because this sutra was passed on to him by Su Changyu. Hence, if Su Changyu did not agree, he would not dare to pass on the sutra without permission.

“Patron Su, I know that this request is a bit too much, but I can make a Buddhist vow that I will never spread the sutra. If you’re still worried, I can also vow that I will never study it and only use it for reference.”

Kong Hai was really curious about what sutra could let a young person like Ye Ping get the Golden Light of Expiation.

He was the top genius of the Buddhist sect of Jin Nation, but his target was to obtain the Golden Light of Expiation before the age of fifty.

However, his master felt that it would be good enough if he could get the Golden Light of Expiation before the age of 100.

As the top Buddhism talent in Jin Nation, Kong Hai would probably only be able to cultivate the Golden Light of Expiation at about 70 years old, but it definitely wouldn’t be as good as Ye Ping’s.

Hence, he was really curious.

Sensing the desire in Kong Hai’s gaze, Su Changyu was a little dumbfounded.

He didn’t know anything about the method of expiation.

He wanted to explain, but as soon as he did, the meaning seemed to have changed.

“Fellow Daoist Kong Hai, fate has brought us together. Ye Ping, write a copy of it for Venerable Kong Hai.”

Su Changyu said calmly.

His indifferent aura showed again.

Su Changyu looked extremely indifferent.

Kong Hai couldn’t help but be overjoyed when he said that.

Ye Ping didn’t continue saying anything else and simply took out the brush and ink that he brought around with him. He then started writing down the expiation sutra.

In less than 15 minutes, he completed it.

“Please keep this well, Venerable Kong Hai.”

Since Su Changyu didn’t care, there was nothing more he could say.

Besides, Kong Hai was indeed a good person, so Ye Ping gave it to him willingly.

Kong Hai took the sutra respectfully.

“Namo Amitabha, thank you for giving this to me. Feel free to tell me if there’s anything you need help with.”

Feeling very grateful to them, Kong Hai placed his hands together and immediately started scrutinizing the expiation sutra.

He was familiar with the first half of the sutra, but the later half seemed rather elusive. All of sudden, Kong Hai found it hard to enlighten.

However, Kong Hai understood something.

The harder it was to comprehend the sutra, the more mighty the sutra was.

He didn’t stare at the sutra. After all, he was in the Linhe Ghost Grave, and thus, he planned to go to a quieter place to read it.

Thinking of this, Kong Hai put the sutra in his arms and then looked at the two of them.

“Patrons, the array formation has now been broken. I know that you two are going to attend the Qingzhou Sword Dao Meet. If you set off now, you won’t be late. If there’s any more delay, I am afraid you will be late for the Qingzhou Sword Dao Meet. Why don’t I send you down the mountain?”

Kong Hai planned to escort them down the mountain.

Although Kong Hai felt like he was insulting Su Changyu and Ye Ping when he said that, he thought that he ought to be polite.

“Thank you, Venerable One.”

Hearing that Kong Hai was willing to escort him down the mountain, Su Changyu was extremely thankful.

Ye Ping nodded too.

They had stayed at the Linhe Ghost Grave for too long and indeed had to speed up. Otherwise, they really might not be able to make it to the conference.

Both of them agreed.

Without any nonsense, Kong Hai headed down with the two of them.

Six hours passed.

Three figures slowly appeared in a small passage.

“Patrons, continue on this path, keep going for about an hour and you will see the Qingzhou path. Head all the way to the west and you will see the ancient city of Qingzhou.”

Kong Hai bade farewell to them on the path.

He had a mission to complete and could not accompany them to the ancient city of Qingzhou, so he could only say goodbye to them there.

“Thank you, Venerable.”

Ye Ping thanked him and silently memorized the route.

“You’re welcome. If you have the opportunity, you can come to Little Spirit Temple to look for me. When we meet again, I will definitely treat you with the best hospitality.”

It was considered Kong Hai’s last words before parting.

“Daoist Kong Hai, you can also come to the Qingyun Dao Sect and visit us.”

“We’ll meet again if fate allows!”

Su Changyu said politely.

Immediately afterwards, he took Ye Ping away.

They were indeed in a bit of a hurry. There were less than twenty days before the Qingzhou Sword Dao Meet, but they had only traveled less than one-fifth of the journey, so if they didn’t hurry up a bit, they might really be late.

“We’ll meet again if fate allows!”

Kong Hai watched the two of them leave.
