Unlike before, Princess Mingmei was also present this time.
"Xu Qing, your Heavenly Dao, the Soul Accumulation Mountain, and the Prison nascent souls are quite special. Wait until you break through in your cultivation, and then you can contemplate them again."
"There's also your Time Bottle and the morning glow formed by the fall of the sun. My third sister is more suitable to guide you in them than me."
At this point, the heir looked at his third sister.
Xu Qing sat opposite the heir and listened attentively. He wasn't surprised that the heir had seen through all his foundations. At that moment, he also looked at Princess Mingmei.
"The Time Bottle is a mystical item of the imperial family and I don't know its origin, but it does contain the technique of time. However, this technique is not something that can be learned. You need to frequently contemplate and imprint it in your heart. The mysteries of time are profound, and everyone's path is unique."
Princess Mingmei's gaze swept past Xu Qing.
Xu Qing's body stiffened. He felt as though everything had been seen through.
"Your life lantern is already on the path of the Dao of Time. You just have to continue walking. For you to be able to gather your own life lantern in without having a bloodline like ours, this matter isn't simple. I believe this is also why the Crown Prince thinks highly of you."
The heir smiled when he heard this.
"It's a pity that with our current abilities, we can't open Old Ninth's sealed place silently. Otherwise, if Old Ninth was freed, his Life Lantern Divine Fire Art would have been very suitable for this kid."
The third sister nodded and continued to speak.
"As for the morning glow, this light is rare and I haven't studied it."
"However, back then, I saw a prince possessing it at the ancient sovereign's place. When that prince unfolded the illumination of the morning glow, he transformed into the sun in an instant."
"Although it is difficult to display its full power, it also possesses some of the power of the sun. Its radiance is immense, astonishing, and no technique can harm it in the slightest!"
"Thus, young one, do not let your thoughts limit you. Sometimes, the strength of some divine capabilities are determined by your imagination. You can fully integrate your other abilities to create combinations."
Princess Mingmei stared at Xu Qing with anticipation. She knew that while some things may sound easy, truly understanding and integrating them into one's cognition was an incredibly difficult task.
And today, what she wanted to do was make Xu Qing realize that the morning glow and the Golden Crow could complement each other, and this collaboration could unleash greater power. It was also the best way to combine them, forming a powerful trump card.
However, she didn't tell him immediately. She wanted to give Xu Qing some time to think and digest. After he truly had this awareness, he might be able to understand it himself.
This approach would have a more profound impact compared to directly providing the information.
When Xu Qing heard this, his heart stirred. Every word of Princess Mingmei's words echoed in his mind for a long time.
A feeling of enlightenment rose in his mind.
Many thoughts surfaced. They kept colliding and merging, giving birth to sparks of inspiration one after another.
A long time later, Xu Qing was enlightened. His thoughts were clear and he abruptly lifted his head. A strange glint appeared in his eyes and his expression was solemn.
"Thank you, Senior. I understand!"
Xu Qing's stare was bright. As soon as he spoke, the heart of the heir who was drinking tea skipped a beat.
These words caused him to have a bad feeling. Hence, just as he was about to speak, Princess Mingmei calmly spoke.
"Oh? What do you understand?" After asking, she reached out to take the teacup.
"Senior, I understand what you want to tell me. You want to remind me that light… doesn't have to be only one form!"
Xu Qing drew in a deep breath.
"In reality, its form can change at will, so transformation is also an ability of light. Moreover, it's an extremely powerful force."
Princess Mingmei's palm that was about to reach for the teacup paused slightly.
Xu Qing's expression was excited as he continued to speak.
"Therefore… since the morning glow can destroy myriad techniques, it must be able to transform into myriad techniques as well!"
"That's right. Senior wants to tell me that what limits the strength of my divine arts is my imagination. I limited myself previously!"
"I understand now that there's more than one way to use the morning glow."
"I should use the morning glow to simulate other people's spells!"
"Light has the ability to transform, so it will definitely succeed. And this… is the correct way for morning glow!"
Xu Qing abruptly stood up, his heart surging. He looked at Princess Mingmei and waited for her comments.
The heir fell silent.
Princess Mingmei was moreover silent, as though she was thinking. A few breaths later, she picked up the teacup at the side and nodded.
Seeing that he had been acknowledged, Xu Qing took a deep breath. He felt that this Princess Mingmei in front of him was indeed worthy of being someone whom even the heir respected. The other party's words enlightened him.
Xu Qing liked this feeling very much. He cupped his fists and bowed to Princess Mingmei. He then turned and headed straight for the back room to comprehend further.
After he left, Princess Mingmei put down the teacup in her palm and turned to look deeply at the heir.
The heir smiled bitterly and transmitted his voice.
"How's the comprehension ability of this half-disciple of mine? Isn't it freakish?"
Princess Mingmei calmly spoke.
"Pay attention to your words. He's not your half-disciple. If this kid can complete what he has comprehended within three months, you won't need to teach him anymore."
"I'll teach him!"
Time flowed by and three days passed.
During these three days, Xu Qing had been immersed in his research on the morning glow. He kept spreading out his morning glow in the back room and tried to transform it.
The process wasn't very smooth but Xu Qing didn't give up. He kept thinking and even thought of the recording jade slip.
