Chapter 613: Chapter 613 Social Skills_1
The Moon God extended her hand, and on it appeared a jade slip.
“Sir, this is the ninth sound’s score of the Moon God Eight Sounds, and the Moon God himself has always wanted to create the ninth sound through the first eight, but encountered problems when one-third of the creation process was complete,”
the woman in the moonlight-colored dress said.
The ninth sound of the Moon God?
The jade slip had already been presented in front of Qin Changqing.
“Sir, you may enter with your dream consciousness.”
Qin Changqing’s dream consciousness entered into it.
As soon as he entered, he felt the marvel of this score.
The score. It’s somewhat like a musical score.
The principle is similar, but it’s a score for Taoist Rhymes.
Scores for Taoist Rhymes are incredibly precious, generally not passed on to anyone other than their creator.
Like the Taoist Rhymes Qin Changqing had encountered; others might demonstrate them over and over again, but they wouldn’t share the actual scores.
In fact... even if they did, most people wouldn’t understand it.
This is more difficult than interpreting the Taoist Rhymes themselves.
It’s more complex by an order of magnitude.
It’s similar to certain mathematical formulas, which if studied properly, can be used with ease.
However, understanding the principles behind these formulas is where it gets hard.
To learn a formula, one might need only a day.
But to understand the principles behind it, one would need to gain more knowledge—to understand a high school formula, you might need to graduate from a university mathematics department, and that might still not be enough, requiring further study that could take an indefinite amount of time.
These Taoist scores are akin to the principles behind the formulas.
Whereas the Taoist Rhymes Qin Changqing had experienced before, understanding them, is like learning to use such formulas.
Therefore, this score is exceedingly profound.
It is the deepest secret of the Taoist Rhymes.
Qin Changqing... couldn’t understand it at all!
Though he couldn’t understand, Qin Changqing’s dream consciousness still stayed there for quite some time before coming out.
When Qin Changqing’s dream consciousness emerged, the woman in the moonlight-colored dress spoke again.
“Presumably, sir has gained some insights. The Moon God Eight Sounds were originally created for women; yin alone cannot thrive. If we wish to create the ninth sound of the Moon God, at least half of it must be envisioned by a man,” she said.
“However, for countless years, no male immortal has been able to fully comprehend the Moon God Eight Sounds until your arrival, sir. Therefore, if you’d be willing, the Moon God hopes to collaborate with you to create the ninth sound of the Moon God.”
The Moon God herself took who knows how many years just to create the first part.
The other party didn’t expect Qin Changqing to answer right now.
Moreover, agreeing to something also required skill.
Even if Qin Changqing was willing, he couldn’t just agree right away.
In most matters, when you refuse someone, you must be decisive.
But when you agree to someone, you must be slow.
It’s not about human feelings or accidents, but rather some basic social skills.
Although Immortals communicate directly—unlike mortals who like to beat around the bush—their communications are not always straightforward; sometimes, they are tactful. Besides, Qin Changqing had already spent all his experience on the Eighth Sound.
He would wait until he accumulated some more experience before responding.
“You don’t have to answer right now. The creation of the Ninth Sound of the Moon God is extremely difficult, and you might not be able to participate in its creation before your ascension,” she continued.
“As long as you are willing, the next time you come here, the Moon God will provide you with the score of the First to Eighth Sounds for your reference,” said the woman in the moonlight-colored dress once again.
Indeed, she hadn’t expected Qin Changqing to agree immediately.
At that moment, the Moon God made another move.
With a flick of her finger, a sphere of light floated towards Qin Changqing.
“This is a special Immortal Technique. I hope it will be of use to you. This is also a show of sincerity from the Moon God...,” said the woman in the moonlight-colored dress.
A special Immortal Technique?
Qin Changqing’s dream consciousness entered the sphere of light and quickly absorbed the contents within.
This Immortal Technique was indeed special.
It was called the Moon Ebbing Skill, and its function was very simple: it allowed the user to choose to ascend at night.
After the Door of the Immortal Realm appeared, cultivators could use the Moon Ebbing Skill to interact with the moon, thereby lowering the difficulty of blasting open the Immortal Gate.
It could reduce the difficulty of opening the Immortal Gate by at least ten to twenty percent.
This Immortal Technique... didn’t seem particularly useful for someone at the Mahayana Stage.
Because those at the Mahayana Stage wouldn’t even know how long it would take to master this Immortal Technique.
Whether it could be learned at all was a question in itself.
But for Separated Immortals, its effect was significant.
However, the Moon Ebbing Skill couldn’t be executed by just anyone. Powerful Immortal Techniques had encryption measures, and the Moon Ebbing Skill was no exception.
If the Moon Ebbing Skill that the Moon God gave to Qin Changqing were then passed on by him to someone else the next month, and then again, it would become useless.
The key to the Moon Ebbing Skill wasn’t whether you could execute it, but whether the Moon Immortal World was willing to lend you its power.
Since the Moon God had given the Moon Ebbing Skill to Qin Changqing, it was clear she was willing to lend her power.
