With the wanderer so furious, the remaining six disciples were also shocked.
But what they were most shocked about was that Lin Yun dared to be so reckless?
Before, when Lin Yun carved, since his back was turned to them, they hadn’t really noticed that Lin Yun had used the Upanishad of Fire.
“Lin Yun, old me is really puzzled! You come and tell me why you’re still messing around when the houseguest has already instructed you!!!” The wanderer questioned in annoyance.
Lin Yun didn’t dare to talk nonsense before for fear of angering the fuming wanderer even more, and now that the wanderer was letting Lin Yun speak, it was the perfect opportunity for Lin Yun to explain.
“Master, you don’t let us use external force to carve, disciple of course knows that, it’s just that …… disciple felt that through the Upanishad of Fire, letting the carving knife soften slightly could present a better sculpture, could make my carvings even better, so that’s why I insisted on doing this, and the result was really good, so disciple just insisted on doing so.” Lin Yun explained.
“You think? How long have you only been an initiate? You think you’re good? Do you know that once you do this, it’s a far cry from the techniques I taught you!”
“All you have to do is follow my predetermined route and go all the way, and your future in Divine Sense will be very clear, because this path is one that I’ve already taken! Which step to take is very clear, and what result you can achieve in the end is also very clear!”
“And if you follow your own ideas and do it recklessly, what will happen in the end, who can know? The front put is all unknown!”
Using copper as a guide, one can correct one’s clothes, using people as a guide, one can understand the gains and losses, using history as a guide, one can know the rise and fall!
The wanderer’s skill in carving, has reached a very exaggerated point, disciples only need to learn from his path, step by step to improve, although want to reach his kind of step is difficult, but also can have some achievements, even have hope to reach him this step!
And what would the result be if they followed their own ideas? There was no way of knowing!
It was as if there was a road that had been opened and cultivated by a previous person, and all you had to do was to follow it, and it was clear whether it was safe or not along the way, as well as where the end point was.
If you go and open up a road by yourself, which no one has travelled before, whether the road is safe or not, and where the end point is, are all unknown, and you might just walk for a while, and be swallowed by a wild beast, or fall to your death.
“Master, your meaning, disciple understands it all, but isn’t your unique carving technique something that you originated? Before you, there had also never been such a carving technique that you pioneered and carried forward.” Lin Yun said.
“What you mean is that instead of taking this path I’ve blazed, you’re going to carve out a path of your own?” The wanderer looked at Lin Yun with an icy gaze.
“It’s just a path created by adding my own thoughts to my master’s carving skills, it’s not completely new, and I didn’t go after opening up a new path, I just went with my heart and followed my own thoughts and loves.” Lin Yun explained.
The wanderer laughed coldly: “Doesn’t fusing your own ideas still make it a brand new, unknown path? Don’t you still have to, by yourself, carve out a path?”
“Master really want to understand it this way, it is not impossible, although we learn to carve, the purpose of the beginning is to cultivate the divine sense, but the essence of carving, is an art, since it is an art, it should have been a variety of different, each with its own characteristics, why must only take a road.”
“If we all follow a look to carve, then it’s just a factory, produced assembly line products, not a real art, if we just go to imitate your path without adding our own ideas, then, it will never be possible to reach the level of your master, because you are creating your own path, while disciples are imitating! ”
“In the path of carving, if you want to truly become a generation of masters, if you want to reach the level of Master Teacher you, or even reach a higher level, by imitating Master Teacher, it’s impossible, only by stepping out of a path that belongs to yourself!” Lin Yun’s pair of bright eyes carried a seriousness over stubbornness.
“Hubris and arrogance!”
“Self-righteous!”
“Ridiculous!”
The wanderer laughed in anger.
“Lin Yun, who do you think you are? Creating a path by yourself? Creating a sculpting school by yourself? You’re right when you say that the old man is a genre created by himself, you’re right when you say that the old man is a path opened up by himself!”
“But do you know how many people have tried to create their own genre and failed? You only see the success of Old Man alone, but do you know that behind this, there are countless people who have failed!”
“And you only need to follow the old man’s path to go, with the old man’s guidance even if you can’t reach the old man’s level, it’s not too far off!”
“But if you go by yourself, the chance of failure is ninety-nine point nine per cent!”
The more the wanderer spoke, the angrier and angrier he became.
He was most optimistic about Lin Yun, a genius, and this genius was arrogant and self-important!
He, how could he not be angry?
He, how could he not be angry?
Under the wanderer’s anger, the remaining six stood still like good little boys, not daring to make the slightest movement, not daring to open their mouths and talk nonsense for fear of touching the wanderer’s brow.
They were also very shocked in their hearts that Lin Yun would not listen to the direction pointed out by the wanderer and was going to be stubborn?
They were also pointed out by the wanderer for their mistakes and shortcomings, but they all obediently answered and then rectified what the wanderer said.
In Gu Liuyue’s and Yan Xu’s hearts, on the other hand, they were secretly overjoyed, of course they were happy to see Lin Yun being scolded, the worse Lin Yun was scolded, the happier they were.
“Lin Yun, from now on, immediately stop your own methods and follow the path set by the old man, step by step, no fooling around! Do you understand?” The wanderer said sternly.
His voice, which carried an immense amount of pressure, pressed Lin Yun to the point where he couldn’t breathe.
“Master, brat …… brat can’t do it!”
Lin Yun gritted his teeth against the Wanderer’s pressure and finally said these words.
Swish!
The moment Lin Yun said this, the faces of everyone in the room changed dramatically.
“You ……”
The wanderer
was even trembling with anger.
Over the centuries, he had taken in quite a few disciples, and had never encountered one, who wanted to forcefully carve against his will!
Even after his angry scolding and criticism, he still dared to say no!
He was the Star Martial Empire’s most powerful existence in terms of divine sense, he was the greatest carving master within the Star Martial Empire’s carving community today!
Yet Lin Yun dared to overrule his experience!
Furthermore, he had just continued to ask Lin Yun to rectify the situation, seeing as he was indeed very talented.
And Lin Yun, surprisingly …… actually replied to him like this!
Lin Yun carried the pressure and said seriously, ”Master, you said that carving should be done with the heart, and that you should love carving, and I love it! So I’m going to follow my heart to carve, if I force a change, it’ll only dispel my love for carving, and carve in a way that I don’t love myself, then I’m sure that I won’t be able to achieve much in this aspect of carving.”
Commit because you love it!
Work hard because you love it!
Persevere because of love!
If he lost his love for carving and went against his heart, Lin Yun felt that he wouldn’t be able to go too far on this path!
