A World Worth Protecting

Another dao seed? Wang baole frowned slightly. Before he had arrived in the city of listening comprehension, he hadn’t been too suspicious. Now that he was here, he had some guesses.

Logically speaking, it’s impossible for too many dao seeds to appear... Wang Baole narrowed his eyes. He was prepared to observe again. If there were more than three to five dao seeds in the city of listening comprehension.., then there must be a problem.

If it was any other cultivator, due to their cultivation, they wouldn’t be able to form an accurate judgment. However, with Wang Baole’s actual cultivation and experience, he could easily tell that if this happened, someone must have deliberately set it up.

The purpose of setting it up was nothing more than... to borrow the bodies of others to nourish their own dao. These dao seeds were most likely cauldrons.

It would have been fine if the person who had arranged the arrangement didn’t need them, but the cauldrons were safe and sound. Once the other party had a thought, the bodies of these dao seed holders would instantly wither, and the dao seed would fly out and return to their original bodies.

I’ll see if there are any other dao seed holders, and I’ll know all the answers. As he pondered, the concert began. As the beautiful melody reverberated, the entire city of listening pleasure was filled with a feast for the ears at that moment.

Even Wang Baole had to admit that the melody was beautiful. It made people unable to help but feel happy when they heard it, and a smile unconsciously appeared on their faces.

That smile also triggered the joyous aura in Wang Baole’s body, causing him to wake up in the next instant. A hidden glint flashed across his eyes.

“Happiness and listening are indeed related.”Wang Baole focused his attention and looked over. The orchestra on the light screen was slowly becoming blurry. It was as if as it played, the bodies of all the cultivators on the stage gradually became illusory, it was as if everyone was turning into musical notes, surrounding the purple woman and playing her accompaniment, making her music more vibrant and infectious.

In Wang Baole’s eyes, the woman’s body had also become more than half illusory, turning into a nearly complete piece of music that floated in the city of listening pleasure.

Everyone who heard it was intoxicated. There were even some who chose to sit cross-legged at the beginning of the performance, as if they were comprehending something.

Is this also a way to cultivate the law of listening? Wang Baole was curious and looked around. Soon, he locked onto a young man who was smiling foolishly not too far away. He slowly walked over, the crowd did not notice him. They gently patted the young man’s shoulder, and a joyous aura spread into his body along with his palm.

Although the use of this joyous aura could not achieve the effect of fighting an enemy, it had a certain effect in increasing their favorability and trust. The young man’s mind was clearly filled with the music, as if he was unguarded, this allowed Wang Baole’s joyous aura to smoothly fuse into his mind, forming a hint.

Under the influence of this hint, when the young man was disturbed by Wang Baole’s slap and woke up from his immersion in the music, he turned to look at Wang Baole. He should have been slightly unhappy, but he suddenly felt that the person in front of him.., seemed to be very friendly. He suppressed the displeasure in his heart and asked patiently.

“Fellow Daoist, what’s the matter?”

“Fellow Daoist, I’m Xuan Mingzi. It’s my first time in the city of desire. I noticed that everyone was listening to the music and seemed to be enlightened. After hearing the performance, my heart was filled with joy. I danced and couldn’t help but touch you. I hope you don’t mind.”A warm smile appeared on Wang Baole’s face, under the influence of the joyous atmosphere, he exuded a sense of joy.

The youth was first hinted at and then influenced. He didn’t mind Wang Baole’s interruption. Instead, he and Wang Baole chatted while listening to the performance.

An hour later, the performance came to an end. Both of them looked satisfied. As the crowd dispersed, Wang Baole took the initiative to invite them. The youth happily agreed. Soon, the two of them sat in a restaurant, it was as if they had regretted not meeting each other sooner.

As they chatted, Wang Baole also found out about the other party’s identity. He was an official resident of the city. However, due to his talent, he didn’t join any of the sects in the city. He could only work as a waiter in a music hall.

However, as he had to face many people every day, he knew a lot about the various news in the city. For example, from him, Wang Baole found out that there were three major sects in the city.

The chord sect was only one of them. The other two sects were the Hengqin sect and the Dao of music.

The three major sects were the largest factions in the city of listening. Above them was the lord of listening desire.

Other than that, Wang Baole also learned a few basic theories about the cultivation of the law of listening desire.

The comprehension of the law of listening desire took up more than half of the cultivation. The previous performance was an entrance test for the chord sect. Anyone who could gather their own musical notes from the music played would be qualified to join the chord sect, they would be qualified to join the chord sect.

“It’s a pity that such comprehension depends on luck and aptitude. I’ve listened to the performances of the three great sects many times, but I haven’t succeeded yet.”The young man was filled with regret. Under Wang Baole’s persuasion, he gulped down the wine in his glass.

“Fellow Daoist Xuanming, this is your first time in the city of listening. If you possess the aptitude to join the three great sects, you will definitely soar. Therefore, I suggest that you establish yourself here first, and then listen to the performances of the three great sects.”

“The cultivation of the law of listening pleasure is extremely important.”The young man also had a good impression of Wang baole, so his words were sincere. Wang baole nodded and asked a few more questions, gradually, he gained a general understanding of the basic cultivation of the law of listening pleasure.

For example, the cultivation of the law of listening pleasure was to create a complete song. However, it was not limited to just one song. According to the young man’s description, the elites of the three great sects had created two or even more songs.

However, no matter what, the main note was very important. Only with the main note could one be considered to have the prerequisite to perfect one’s own music. After that, one would continuously add notes and change them from time to time until they created a piece of music that was the most suitable for one, the final refinement.

The final refinement here was different from the three sects. For example, the chord emphasized on adding lyrics to form a song. The Hengqin was different. It emphasized on expressing one’s emotions through music and did not need any lyrics to help.

As for the Dao of music, it focused on nature. It focused on the sound of all things, not limited to music. Anything was possible, and the goal was to create the sound of nature.

Regardless, the three sects would eventually allow the cultivator to transform into music and fuse with Heaven and earth.

“According to the legends, there is another realm that will allow the world to produce a sound that has never existed before... . It is said that this realm is the closest to the realm of desire.”
