Chapter 891: Scheme (I)
Lu Jiangxian had read the memories of several major Buddhist cultivators and possessed dozens of Buddhist cultivation techniques, but he had never practiced them himself. His own cultivation experience came from the Li Family members after their pill condensation and had nothing to do with the Buddhist Dao.
As a result, Lu Jiangxian's understanding of fate was limited to the Five-Eyed technique. His old shortcut of shaping humanoid figures out of mana for cultivation had no effect when it came to fate. Mana could circulate freely, but how could fate be anchored to a mere clump of energy?
Lu Jiangxian did not yet feed the strand of fate into the mirror. Instead, he summoned the soul of Dangjiang, who still appeared dazed and disoriented, having been sealed ever since being drawn out of Buzi’s body.
"When the time is right, this fellow can be put to use. For now, I’ll keep this fate strand in reserve."
He looked up as he suddenly sensed something. The Bright Radiant Yang Imperial Union Essence was emitting a faint glow. A scene of a sea island covered in palaces and pavilions, with cultivators moving to and fro, slowly unfolded.
A stone gate on the island slowly closed. Inside the cave dwelling, a youth sat cross-legged, his body radiating bright light that illuminated the chamber in clear brilliance.
"Li Zhouwei is in seclusion, breaking through to Foundation Establishment Realm."
In the great void, Lu Jiangxian had seen how the Tianwu True Essence and Divine Fiend could turn into monstrous evils. Even without mutation, ordinary Purple Mansion Realm cultivators struggled to suppress the Metallic Essence. But the Metallic Essence in Li Zhouwei's body had been personally bound by Lu Jiangxian using high-grade immortal arts, so it caused little disturbance.
But Lu Jiangxian had also seen Li Zhouwei’s eldest son, Li Jiang’ao. Li Jiang’ao’s current condition was already considered mild, but it was in large part due to his constant maintenance and suppression...
"The Bright Yang lineage often produces many sons. The eldest tends to be fierce, and the second cruel. The ones most affected are always the first and second sons. If my calculations are right, the court politics of the Wei's Li lineage will be quite bloody. The battle between the legitimate heir and the second son won’t be a simple one, especially since both are born with divine anomalies."
Li Zhouwei’s current inherent rank was far from ordinary. According to Lu Jiangxian’s calculations, Li Jiang’ao might even transform into some monstrous entity like the Red-Eyed White Cicada or the Gold-Eyed White Qilin. That was why Lu Jiangxian had kept a close watch on him since his birth.
