Purifying Rakshasa Legacy
"One of the things which I wanted to talk about is the meditation techniques you possess."
Bibi Dong asked him, the pair were sitting in one of the living rooms in the Academy where teachers usually live. At this moment this area was empty.
"I think Snake Lance Douluo has reported everything he could about them." Xue Long said that with a small smirk which made Bibi Dong slightly got uncomfortable as she realised that the prince knew all about that the bodyguard Titled Douluo reporting things and he told it anyway…
"Yes… however… it's not something one can learn through second-hand sources."
"...You want it to learn from me? I don't think you will accept me as your teacher." This time Xue Long was a little bit confused. If she opened a dialogue about his meditation techniques then she is thinking of learning from him.
This means teacher and student kind of thing?
"...I am sure trade agreements can be arranged. Having favours with Spirit Hall Supreme Pontiff is a valuable thing to have." She said that quite smoothly, if she was not Supreme Pontiff she would have long ago been his student. Especially when she saw him in person…
She has all sorts of positive vibes coming from him. It makes her excited. The woman hasn't been this excited for a long time.
"I am going to accept the offer."
His words made her elated instantly but she quickly controlled it because of how casually he accepted it! Now she is curious why no hesitation!
"You didn't even think about it? Easily accepting it?" She asked with a curious look. There should be more to this…
"That's because I am interested in you." He said that extremely casually which made her instinctively blush. Which in turn made Xue Long aware how… affection thirsty is this woman…
"Twin Martial Spirits and spiders on top of that. I didn't have a chance to see or train one yet." He explained more to her which made her relieved and disappointed at the same time.
"...I see…" This made her realise that he cares about Martial Spirits to quite a large extent. This is quite a dangerous trait to have. One could misuse and abuse it. This is something she is going to need to watch out for in the future. That no one could abuse him like that!
Bibi Dong didn't even realise how she is already getting defensive about him.
"Though… those meditations are going to be difficult. As they are not related to regular cultivation but one's mental state."
His words made her frown quite a bit. This is something she knows about and is quite confident in her abilities.
This was something Xue Long saw in how she reacted. But, seeing how his fiance has struggled, there is no doubt this one is going to struggle even more so as well…
"I am quite confident that I will be able to master them."
"We shall see. I can already sense quite a bit of darkness inside of you. Which is not coming from your Spider Martial Spirits. But… I guess… another type of legacy you acquired?"
The purple-haired woman's eyes widened as she realised that her Godly inheritance…can get in the way!? This was not good!
"My meditation focuses on enlightenment and dark attributes things like that are on the opposite scale of things. They corrupt and made one's mind move towards negative thoughts.
Because of that kind of things, it becomes harder to progress and cultivate Lotus Meditation." Xue Long explained to her.
"...So it not possible to cultivate it for me?"
"It is still possible. This technique will most likely purify the legacy you have."
Bibi Dong's eyes went wide. This… meditation can purify God's inheritance!? How powerful is this thing!?
"Though it's up to you. Do you wish to cultivate this? Each stage of Lotus Meditation increases and magnifies your comprehension level. It strengthens your soul, eventually, you come impervious to corruption and at the very peak you ascended to a higher realm of existence."
Xue Long can see that he persuaded her before he even started talking… is she already pulling Yandere on him? Is she even bigger Yandere than Qian Renxue?
Well, he can understand that his techniques and power work like a magnet or like fire to a moth.
Though he didn't realise that the purple-haired woman in front of him has a thing for people who like to teach and are knowledgeable. That's the reason why Bibi Dong fell in love with Yu Xiaogang in the first place even if he was stuck at rank 29 most of his life. For her knowledge is a priority before strength.
And those two things Xue Long has in droves. This way she is so yanderish towards him from the very beginning.
"...You saying that if I cultivate this to the highest stage I will ascend to godhood without inheritance?" She asked with disbelief.
"Yes to my knowledge, at this moment I am at stage 6 there are a few more stages ahead of me. It's strange to explain but as you progress in this method you eventually start to 'grasp' and 'see' the light at the end of a dark tunnel."
As he explained more the woman by this point didn't care. On one side she becomes the Rakshasa Goddess on the other half she becomes a goddess either way AND she will learn these techniques and going to be around this genius person!
Though if the current Rakshasa Goddess knew why Bibi Dong threw her inheritance away so easily she would most likely cough up blood…
"I see… I SEE… then I agree… this method sounds better than the current one I am doing." In truth it's not… she just wants to study and be around the prince… she knows he is just full of things she never heard about!
Internally Xue Long rolled his eyes. She is so close to that Godhood only needs an apostle to sacrifice and she would be a Goddess long ago… yet, now she wants to redo it via the Buddhistic path? Though the Buddhistic one is far superior for the simple reason that you become more and more comprehensive about everything. It's like putting wisdom points in your wisdom-build character in a video game, only the difference is those points are in thousands. This is why the Prince starts with Lotus meditation and then spread to the other two as it's easier to branch once comprehension increases.
"I suppose. Let's start then."
~~~
The pair were back in the martial field. Bibi Dong was sitting in Lotus Position waiting for the lesson to start.
For this, she removed her crown and the staff, since those will get in her way of learning and meditating.
The Crown Prince started by making one hand prayer sign. A diamond golden glow surrounded him. This only intensified when he added his other hand and make a proper prayer.
There is a difference between banishing evil and purifying one. The first one leaves the person alive and the other one burns everything away.
Xue Long never studied this branch of Shaolin arts but the comprehensive power of Lotus meditation allowed him to backtrack and 'observe' the art, this only intensified with Arthan's meditation.
He noticed similarities in his maids as well as the ones which studying Shaolin arts. Like Luohan style of Polearm, the girls themselves are branching out and 'acquiring' other stances or incorporating more of the Praying Mantis style or the Diamond Fist into their fighting style.
This shows the power of meditation to him.
As the light intensified Bibi Dong started to feel uneasy. This feeling only grew and grew until it flipped and she started to sense peace and tranquillity.
Which she embraced instantly.
The deep anger she had has severely lessened and turned into bitterness, her body got much more at ease and her cultivation has returned to her previous one which was Rank 99… instead of Rank 98.
Eventually, she felt a finger touching her forehead and whatever remnant darkness there was slowly disappeared completely.
By the time she opened her eyes, she saw heavily breathing Xue Long standing in front of her.
"This inheritance of yours… it was a very tough nut to crack. I used almost all of my Spirit Energy." He said that while taking a step back and sitting in Lotus position himself.
As she heard that, the purple-haired woman thought for a moment, should she tell him?
Yes, she should. After all, he is already helping her. Yes, her thoughts are clearer and she is far more at ease. She can say that this trial run for her was a mistake. This god position. An evil god position is not for her…
Bibi Dong doesn't like someone corrupting and clouding her judgment!
Well…the biggest part was that Xue Long said it was no good…
"It's an Evil God. Also known as Rakshasa Goddess. I was doing her trials until you removed her influence over me." She explained to him. This was the first time she ever opened up to someone.
"...I see… So, you rather inherit god's position instead become one herself?"
To the Prince's question, she slightly shrugged her shoulders.
"I was until I changed my mind." The Supreme Pontiff said with a smile.
"Now. I am going to walk on a better path." Her words had a multitude of different means, even suggestions. The prince has the attention of an extremely obsessed spider. And the darkness cleansing while removing her anger and corruption issues it didn't remove what she was. A woman who gets obsessed with someone she approves of.
"...I see… well, let me recover my energy and then we can proceed with the Meditation techniques." As he said that he activated his Cultivation domain.
The surrounding have changed and Bibi Dong got introduced to the domain which she only saw as letters in the reports she read.
It was many times more impressive than Snake Lance Douluo has described in his reports!
Especially when she sensed how pure and potent this energy is. Her pair of Spider Martial spirits started to get even giddy from this wanting to absorb as much as possible!
Even if she was at the limit of this world. She can sense that this energy is strengthening her either way.
Which explains his absurd power way beyond what his cultivation should be.
'Hmm… if only I could take you with me…' Internally the spider woman sighed that she can't take him with her.
~~~
Tang Wutong looked at the purple-haired woman sitting in front of Xue Long. The butterfly girl had bad feelings about this woman.
Especially when she saw how much darkness there was coming out from her body. This woman was evil! Well, maybe! still is evil!
Yet, what made her weary is that she is getting the same vibes, maybe even worse than from Qian Renxue!
"Wait! wait! Wait Just for a moment! She looked just like Qian Renxue! Does this mean… this woman IS the mother of Qian Renxue!? Yet, she has that look towards Long!!!
Is she planning… to 'eat' him!?" She thought about it with a gulp there was a blush on her face as she realised that it is a possibility. Though she thinks at first this woman wants to possess him and then when he grows up do that kind of things!?
"This is so weird… both daughter and mother want the same thing… I never saw anything like this… this is weird!" The Tang girl said that with crossed arms.
Sadly she can't get close to this woman and looked at her closer, the limit of hers to be away from Qiu'er doesn't allow it and she doesn't want truly to die.
"Once I get the chance I am going to tell him to be wary of her. Qian Renxue is enough for him as it is… if only I could be there in person…" She said that with a sigh. If only she could be around to warn him! He is a guy and she is a girl! A girl can see when another female has bad ideas about a guy!
