Chapter 48: The Seven Heavenly Ladders and Brahma-level Martial Arts

Hearing this, Sakjee's face darkened. This woman was always like this, always saying unpleasant things when he was in a good mood!

He was especially displeased when he heard Panya say that Livi treated him like a fool. He coldly retorted, "I think it's you who treats me like a fool. A Brahmin with the bloodlines of two noble kings, the Sun King and the Amaya King, has to bow down to me, yet you say such unpleasant things to me all day long. I think you should go back and study the 'Etiquette' properly!"

The full title of the "Rules of the Brahman" is the "Rules of the Brahman". It stipulates what women should do. The core idea is that the husband is the heaven. It is one of the seven classics that some Brahmin and Kshatriya noble women should learn from childhood.

With that, Sakje waved his hand, snorted, and walked out the door, instructing his servant to tell him to bring the two gift-givers to the side room.

Sakjee planned to meet with the two people sent by Levi alone; he didn't want Panya to spoil the fun.

Immediately after Sakje and his servant left, Pania was left alone in the luxurious room. She sat there silently, her eyes lowered as if she were thinking about something, her pale hands tightly gripping her dress.

She sat quietly on the sandalwood chair, motionless for a long time. The candlelight cast her profile onto the tapestry behind her, a long and solitary shadow, like a forgotten statue deep within a temple.

"It's always like this," she thought. "Every time, the conversation ends in a bad mood halfway through."

She was also reflecting on herself. She thought that her words just now were too forceful and made Sakjee feel disgusted. Was she too hasty and too harsh again, without considering his feelings?

But that was her nature from birth. Her father had always said that she had a sharp eye and was not suited for a secluded life.

That's just her personality; on the other hand, she's also afraid.

Yesterday she had a dream in which, in about twenty days, the moonlight formed in her womb, and she happily consummated her marriage with her husband. However, she discovered that it was not Sakje who entered her room, but Li Wei.

She had never met Li Wei, but the person who entered her room in her dream had three enormous ancient snake heads and was leering at her.

She woke up instantly, her sari soaked in cold sweat.

That dream felt so real, so real, that she dared not mention it to anyone.

"Perhaps..." she murmured to herself, her voice as soft as a sigh, "Perhaps my husband is unwilling to listen to me, unwilling to spend more time with me, because we have not truly become husband and wife yet."

She lowered her head, her gaze falling on her lower abdomen.

There, deep within the dantian, a moon's radiance is slowly gathering—pure white and warm, like a crescent moon on the ninth day of the lunar month; in just over twenty days, it will be full.

Pania gently pressed her lower abdomen, and through the thick satin of her sari, she could almost feel the warm pulse of the moonlight.

In fact, Sakje was never the husband she had always dreamed of.

Her ideal husband should be a powerful ruler, like her father.

However, the husband is the wife's Indra, and the wife is the husband's shadow.

She could recite the opening line of the Book of Rites when she was six years old, and she could recite it backwards and forwards fluently after seventeen years. Every word was engraved in her bones.

Having married him, her fate was now intertwined with his, bound together by a single rope. His glory was her glory; his death would leave her with no face to live on.

"I must protect Tuli Town and safeguard the legacy of the Darban family for two generations." Pania raised her head, the confusion in her eyes gradually fading, replaced by a firm resolve.

Twenty days later, the moon was full and the wedding ceremony was completed.

By then, they would be a real couple. Surely he would listen to her then?

Pania hoped that after their wedding night, Sakje's attitude towards her would change, and that he would listen to what she said.

She would slowly persuade him, gradually making him understand that the Brahmin named Liwei was a three-headed Naga, a descendant of the ancient pagoda, and a venomous python coiled beside the bed in Tuli Town.

If we don't behead it while it's still young, it will surely devour the sky and the earth when it grows up!

……

In the other side room, Shah and Bukhat lavished praise on Sakje for two hours. These flattering words made Sakje beam with joy, and in the end, he even laughed and said, "I am the elder brother of Livi, and Livi is the younger brother. Our territories will not invade each other's."

Hearing this, Bukhat and Shah knew they had achieved their goal and left satisfied. Meanwhile, Sakje was beaming with pride inside the house. A descendant of two noble kings, the Sun King and the Amoy King, had recognized him, Sakje, as his elder brother.

Moreover, he was also secretly pleased with his performance.

"Did I fool these two with my act of being a tyrant just now?" Sakje smiled smugly. He liked flattery and cared about his image, but he wasn't a complete fool, especially after that last sentence about non-aggression. How could that be? He, Sakje, was definitely going to eliminate Li Wei, this threat.

But we can't rush it.

Anyway, he has already sent two hundred soldiers to garrison Ganka Village, blocking Li Wei's path to rapid strength improvement. He can take his time to play with Li Wei for a year or two.

Sakjee believed that things should be done slowly, especially when dealing with a very threatening enemy.

If he were to immediately send troops to kill Li Wei as his wife Panya suggested, what if things went wrong?

What if Li Wei escapes?

"How could a woman understand my great talent and ambition?" Sakjee shook his head and muttered to himself. This was the situation he had been pursuing. On the one hand, he was in a position of great righteousness, as he was now Li Wei's brother.

On the other hand, from a practical point of view, he also blocked Li Wei's path to increasing strength, and he has plenty of time to slowly wear Li Wei down.

"Great things cannot be rushed; one must proceed slowly." Sakjee stood up, looked up at the sky, and sighed. He felt that his great talent and strategy were not understood by his wife. His wife thought he was indecisive and dared not send troops immediately, but who knew that he was playing a grand game!

For the next year or so, he would find a way to ensure that Li Wei could neither escape nor live, and that he would die at his hands. At that time, Pania would surely look at him with adoration.

Thinking of that scene, Sakjee burst into laughter again.

After leaving the mansion, Shaha and Bukhat remained silent until they mounted their horses and passed the boundary marker of Tuli Town, at which point Shaha finally let out a long sigh of relief.

"This Mr. Sakje..." he carefully chose his words, "is really easy to coax."

As he gazed at the darkening sky ahead, Buhart smiled slightly: "The more someone thinks they've fooled the world, the more likely they are to believe they've deceived everyone."

Shaha was taken aback: "What does Mr. Buhat mean?"

Bhatt did not answer, but simply urged the horse on.

……

"Sakjee said he was the elder brother, and I was the younger brother?"

At the Laka residence, Levi breathed a sigh of relief after hearing the reports from Bhatt and Shaha upon their return.

From this perspective, the time he currently needs has been resolved.

Although it's highly likely that Sakjee is using this as a delaying tactic, saying these things to appease him first, and then slowly finding an opportunity to kill him later, it still comes down to this:

Li Wei's biggest advantage in this world is that he can increase his strength without having to seize territory.

No one could have imagined that, given just twenty more days, he could raise his Qi and Blood to 2.6 through honing his martial arts skills. This was already the peak of the early stage of Vanpi, close to breaking through to the middle stage of Vanpi.

"With strength approaching that of the mid-stage Vanpi, an elephant strength of 2.6, and the first step of the Naga mastery, I'm determined to take this Tuli Town. Even Brahma can't stop me!" Li Wei muttered to himself.

……

Time began to pass peacefully, and two more days passed. Li Wei had a fulfilling two days, practicing the Naga Eight Steps every day and instructing Suleisa on how to pull radishes in the fields.

After two days of honing his martial arts skills, his Naga Eight Steps leveled up to level six, and his health also increased by 0.1, reaching 1.75 Elephant Force.

Besides that, Li Wei has been looking for other martial arts techniques these past two days.

He has a martial arts talisman that can instantly train a martial art below the forbidden level to mastery, and he will definitely use it.

But in the past two days, he has not found a satisfactory martial art.

He went to Piro's house to look for him. The strange movement technique Piro had used before was a martial art that hadn't even reached the Brahma level.

Although the Vanishing realm emphasizes quantity over quality in martial arts, Li Wei still wanted to cultivate a martial arts seed within his dantian, at least to the point of reaching the Vanishing level.

The so-called "Brahma level" is a classification of martial arts.

Entering the Brahma level means entering the grade.

Martial arts are divided into seven ranks. This division originates from the sevenfold dance of karmic fire performed by Shiva on the eve of the destruction of the universe, hence the name—

Seven Heavenly Ladders - Saputa - Rajamalga

(सप्तररजमर्ग, Sapta-Rājamārga)

Piro's martial arts are not classified as rank, and are not within the seventh rank.

This is how true martial arts that have reached a certain level are classified.

First, there was the seventh-grade Brahma-level martial art.

This martial art is also known as [Seventh Grade - Poritibi] - Earth

पृथ्वी—— Prthvī

The earth, which bears all things, is the original place where we first stood.

This martial art symbolizes foundation, patience, and the power of heavy, clumsy strength; it is the most basic entry-level martial art.

Once mastered, a heavenly ladder, a lotus flower, and a layer of raging fire will appear in the dantian.

Next are the sixth and fifth grade Brahma-level martial arts, the fourth and third grade Brahma-moon-level martial arts, and the second and first grade Brahma-sun-level martial arts.

The first-grade Brahma Sun level martial arts is also known as the Great Brahma Sun. Legend has it that after mastering it, seven heavenly ladders, seven lotus flowers, and seven layers of karmic fire will appear in the dantian. This martial arts is a martial arts with truly incredible power.

As for Li Wei's Naga Eight Steps, it is a forbidden martial art that transcends the seventh rank and above.

However, because he had only learned an incomplete version, the Naga martial arts seed in his dantian did not manifest any extraordinary phenomena, such as the Lotus Ladder.
