Chapter 217: 218 Xi Yao Wishes to Become Your Disciple

Playing the piano is a very difficult skill, and Li Xiaobai, lacking the ability to perform complex techniques, could only rely on his memory to play “Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star,” reducing the difficulty to the lowest level. Despite this simplicity, he still hit many wrong notes.

However, the rhythm and melody were still there, and cultivators of this world, who had never heard such trendy music before, found it extremely novel.

This was music completely different from what they knew. It didn’t have the ethereal and elusive feel of immortal music, and even carried a trace of childishness, but they found it fresh and felt they couldn’t stop listening.

If Immortal Xi Yao’s guqin music had attracted them with its potential to enhance cultivation level and enlightenment, then this piano genuinely captivated them with its music.

Their minds unconsciously immersed themselves in it, swaying along with it.

Li Xiaobai saw everyone’s reactions and knew that the charm of the piano had conquered them. He thought he should have taken the time to learn the piano and demonstrate some high-level techniques. However, as things stood, even the simplest piece proved to be deeply engaging.

When the piece was over, Li Xiaobai packed up the piano and sat down at a distance, watching everyone with a satisfied smile.

“Hehe, kid, you actually understand rhythm, too? Bring that piano to this lord to try out,” Ji Wuqing approached, always eager for the fine things Li Xiaobai produced.

“Since when do you understand rhythm, you chicken? Just go eat your banana and behave!”

Li Xiaobai shoved it to one side.

“Young Master, what was that instrument just now? I have never heard such a timbre before!”

In the crowd, the most shocked was undoubtedly Xi Yao. The piano, in its form and sound, was utterly different from her ancient guqin; even the expression and emotion conveyed through its tones differed completely from the traditional guqin.

This was a completely new, unknown path of musical arts.

To others, it might have just been a piece of different music, but to her, it was the opening of another pathway to cultivation. If she could grasp the technique of the piano, she was sure she could take her abilities to new heights.

“This instrument is called a piano, distinct from the guqin. It is capable of expressing a myriad of things. What I played just now was very rough. Did it please your ear?”

Li Xiaobai said with a smile, his gaze casually sweeping over Liu Ming and the others.

Liu Ming’s face turned beet red. Who would have thought that Li Xiaobai actually understood music, and it seemed that he had even won the appreciation of Immortal Xi Yao. They had unwittingly become stepping stones for him.

“It was indeed pleasing to the ear. This music is too trendy and avant-garde. If possible, I would like to learn from Young Master Li!”

Xi Yao said sincerely.

“This music is good indeed, but being pleasant to the ear is not enough. Immortal Xi Yao’s guqin music can resonate with the Heavenly Dao, and upon hearing it, which cultivator doesn’t feel their cultivation level increase and their mind become clearer? In this respect, Young Master Li seems to have fallen short.”

“Focusing solely on captivating people with odd and trendy melodies could lead to delusion. Immortal Xi Yao, please consider this carefully!”

Liu Ming said with a sneer, having received a secret message earlier from a senior, informing him about the effects of enhancing enlightenment.

This is indeed a very good point, which can relentlessly suppress Li Xiaobai.

Xi Yao’s expression stiffened. Indeed, a good rhythm of music is complementary to the Heavenly Dao. When played, it must induce extraordinary phenomena. However, after Li Xiaobai finished playing his piece, they only felt it was pleasant and novel but did not perceive any anomalies occurring.

Could it be true, as he said, that Li Xiaobai was merely using some sensational notes to attract attention?

“Haha, fellow cultivator, eyes are a valuable asset. If you do not need yours, feel free to donate them to someone who does. Which of your eyes saw that my piano music could not help cultivators enhance their cultivation level?”

“How much has the Spiritual Power in your body increased? Don’t you have a slightest clue? To not feel grateful is one thing, but to make a scene here is quite ungrateful, isn’t it?”

Li Xiaobai spoke indifferently, certain that the System’s explanations could not be wrong; the piano could indeed slightly increase the Spiritual Power inside a cultivator’s body.

Upon hearing this, everyone present was momentarily stunned and then quickly sensed the state of their Dantian. They were shocked to find that the Spiritual Power within had unnoticeably strengthened a bit, effectively saving them at least ten days of cultivation time.

What was this situation? Merely listening to a piece had directly enhanced their cultivation level. This effect was even more terrifying than what Immortal Xi Yao had just achieved!

While her music merely provided them with an opportunity for a breakthrough in enlightenment, Li Xiaobai directly increased the Spiritual Power in their Dantians, bypassing the process of cultivation. If they could listen to several more pieces, wouldn’t they be able to fly sky-high on the spot?

The Three Sects’ Holy Sons also wore faces of disbelief. Logically, even if they listened intently to the music, it shouldn’t have had any effect on them, just like when Xi Yao played; they could only appreciate it without the enhancement in understanding enjoyed by other cultivators.

This was a difference in cultivation level, yet now Li Xiaobai’s music had somehow also strengthened the Spiritual Power in their Dantians, which was truly frightening.

For music to have an effect, it usually had to come from someone at least on the same realm level as them. Was Li Xiaobai a Transcendance Tribulation Stage master?

“What’s going on, my cultivation level has increased!”

“Me too, and I was at a bottleneck. Now the Spiritual Power in my Dantian has increased a bit, and I can break through to the next realm at any moment. Initially, I wanted to listen to Immortal Xi Yao’s rhythm in search of an opportunity, but Young Master Li’s piano music turned out to be more straightforwardly powerful!”

“No doubt about it, Young Master Li, from now on, you’re my brother. Anytime you need something, I’ll go through fire and water for you!”

“Indeed, from now on, whoever dares to offend Young Master Li will be picking a fight with me, Long Zhantian!”

“Hahaha, I can break through too! I’ve been stuck on this level for nearly a year, and it’s been truly frustrating. Once I go back and break through, I’ll hunt down those creatures from Flesh Mountain once more!”

The cultivators were excited. However, most of them, considering the face of the Three Sects, did not dare to show it openly. Furthermore, many were hoping to curry favor with Zhong Lingxiu of the Elixir Sect, so even though Li Xiaobai had helped them increase their cultivation levels, they were not ready to let him off easily.

This was the difference between a satisfying feast and ongoing hunger.

As long as one could establish a connection with the Elixir Sect, the path ahead would be smooth sailing.

Only a few cultivators laughed heartily without any concern for appearances. Li Xiaobai scanned the crowd and noted that these men were rugged, exuding an Iron-blood Aura and clearly battle-hardened, quite different from the surrounding Immortal Second Generation.

It was just unknown where these men usually fought their battles.

Xi Yao suppressed the surprise in her heart, “Young Master Li, your talent is extraordinary. If you don’t mind, I would like to become your disciple and learn the art of musical rhythm!”
