Chapter 41 [Understanding Ye Hei, Becoming Ye Hei, Surpassing Ye Hei]
The Yuding Cave is extremely magnificent, with verdant fairy mountains like green jade, dotted with light, surrounded by fairy mist, and waterfalls falling down, and white silk that looks like condensed starlight.
On many misty peaks, you can vaguely see some palaces and towers, which look very ethereal and have a fairyland-like charm.
What is most surprising is that there is a snow-white mountain in the center of the mountains. It is as white as jade, with no grass growing on it, sparkling with light, and shaped like a round tripod.
Elder Ma Yun said proudly: "This is the immortal trace of my Jade Ding Cave Heaven, which is the foundation of the sect. I wonder how many masters have cultivated to the level of Dao Palace on that Ding Peak."
"A great master in the Dao Palace?"
A strange smile appeared on Lin Xian's lips. It was said that those who had crossed the sea of suffering and reached the other side of the Tao realm could indeed be called people with great supernatural powers.
If he were to reach the Dao Palace realm, his reputation would probably be comparable to that of his own Shenqiao Immortal Venerable.
"I see that fellow Daoist has extraordinary talent. If he practices well, the cave heaven will certainly not be stingy with the other side, or even the Dao Palace scriptures." After witnessing Lin Xian's strength, another Shenqiao cultivator gave up the idea of competing with him, intending to resolve the old grudge, and said meaningfully: "Even if I recommend fellow Daoist to enter the holy land, it is still unknown."
The six great blessed places of Yan State are all backed by the Holy Land of Immortals. They can be said to be the peripheral forces of the Holy Land, serving as spies and outposts placed near the ancient forbidden areas.
"Holy place?"
Lin Xian's heart moved, and he asked tentatively: "I heard that behind Lingxu Cave Heaven is Yaoguang Holy Land, I wonder which immortal sect is behind my Yuding Cave Heaven."
“It is the holy land of Zifu.” Elder Ma Yun said proudly. Zifu, according to legend, is the place where immortals live. A sect that dares to use such a name must be extremely powerful.
Even the lowest-level Lunhai monks in the Purple Mansion Holy Land branch would involuntarily straighten their chests when they thought of the power and grandeur of the holy land.
"Purple Mansion Holy Land?"
Lin Xian took a long time to remember which immortal sect the Purple Mansion Holy Land was. In the world where everyone was competing for the throne, the presence of the Purple Mansion Holy Land was not very strong.
This is a Taoist school founded by a great sage. It is not as good as the top-notch Yao Chi Holy Land, and it is not even as good as the first-rate Yao Guang Holy Land. The only hope is the innate Taoist fetus of the Purple Mansion Saint.
Now is a difficult era, everyone is on the same level, the aristocratic holy places seem to be equal in strength, the second most powerful immortal is a top master, and a king can dominate the Eastern Wilderness.
But when the tide goes out, you will know who is swimming naked.
Once the difficult era of Taoism ends and all paths begin to revive, the situation of the Purple Mansion Holy Land will be extremely embarrassing. Not to mention the imperial weapons, it doesn't even have the imperial scriptures. The protectors of the ancient families are all great saints, the same level as the founder of the Purple Mansion Holy Land.
This is a second-rate holy land, only slightly stronger than the holy lands founded by some holy kings and saints.
Lin Xian calmly evaluated in his heart, but his face was full of reverence and yearning. For a cultivator who is only at the Lunhai realm now, even the weakest holy land is an unattainable existence, like a giant peak, waiting for him to dig.
"I will stay in the Purple Mansion mica tent at night and eat the Xuanpu Kunlun Ganoderma in the morning." Lin Xian exclaimed in praise and said with a smile: "I am honored to be able to join such a branch of immortals."
Everyone carried the sedan chair. Elder Ma Yun laughed loudly and said, "Go and see the headmaster quickly. Don't keep him waiting for too long."
The head teacher of Yuding Dongtian is an old man wearing a white jade crown and a Taoist robe. He has a majestic aura that seems to be beyond the scope of the Divine Bridge.
He was sitting in the main hall, watching Lin Xian coming. Suddenly, divine light flashed in his eyes, and they transformed into two dragons that came to fight.
Lin Xian was not to be outdone. He shouted, and the rune between his eyebrows glowed brightly, evolving into a heavenly sword. He killed every dragon he could find, bringing his spiritual sense to its full potential.
"boom!"
The Heavenly Sword and the Flood Dragon perished together as quickly as possible. Master Yu Ding nodded with satisfaction and said, "Their strength is indeed good. There have been some unusual movements in the original ruins recently. I'm afraid that a heavenly treasure has appeared. You can keep up next time."
"Let's share the resources and opportunities together."
The three Divine Bridge monks in the hall suddenly showed envy and jealousy on their faces. The original ruins were extremely vast and endless, near the State of Yan. They only explored a part of it over the years, but they benefited a lot and established the six great caves.
Even the Divine Bridge monks dared not explore the deepest part. Only the other shore and even the Dao Palace-level ancestors dared to take a peek. "If you want to explore the primitive ruins, don't take me with you. What's the difference between a Lunhai monk breaking into the Green Emperor's Tomb and a Qi training period entering a Mahayana copy? Ignorance is fearless." Lin Xian complained in his heart, but his face was extremely sincere. He said loudly: "Thanks to the headmaster's appreciation, this disciple is a Yuding person in life and a Yuding ghost in death. I will definitely fight for greater benefits for Yuding Cave Heaven in the primitive ruins!"
"Good, very energetic!" Master Yu Ding nodded approvingly. He didn't care whether Lin Xian was sincere or not. All he wanted was an attitude.
If you don't even have an attitude, you can't even give the other party a chance to be cannon fodder.
Lin Xian also knew that Master Yuding was using him, a new outsider, as a pawn. However, in this world, people are not afraid of being used, but are afraid of not having value to be used.
He took this opportunity to attack the enemy with a stick and requested, "I want to contribute to the cave, but I am afraid that my cultivation is too low and my knowledge is too mixed. I hope that the master will give me the immortal scriptures so that I can comprehend the great way and cleanse my foundation."
"What scripture do you want?" Master Yu Ding asked expressionlessly.
"Please, Master, let me go to the Sutra Library to choose one." Lin Xian clasped his fists and said, "Only by trying it myself can I know whether it is useful or not."
"I'm afraid you've bitten off more than you can chew. Be careful not to go astray." The old woman in the hall sneered, "Giving you a scripture from the other shore is already a blessing from heaven, and you still want more."
"Maybe some people are too stupid to even understand the scriptures, so they think some people can't understand other scriptures." Lin Xian said sarcastically
"You..." The old woman glared at him.
“That’s enough!” The cold voice of Master Yu Ding sounded, and he waved his hand and said, “Ma Yun, take him to the Sutra Library.”
“Yes, Master.” Elder Ma Yun bowed, then quickly walked out of the hall with Lin Xian.
When the two of them walked away, the old woman from Shenqiao said dissatisfiedly: "Master, he is an outsider..."
"Alright." The headmaster of Yuding waved his hand to stop the argument and said calmly, "There is no distinction between outsiders and insiders. Since you have entered Yuding Cave Heaven, you are a Yuding person."
"Some of you are clouds, some are water, you just do different things."
"You go down."
The old woman Shenqiao's heart trembled, and she suddenly remembered that the master's life span was coming to an end. If he could not break through the Dao Palace as soon as possible, he might not live for a few more years.
He urgently needs a few helpers to help him raid the battlefield and collect the thousand-year-old precious medicines in the primitive ruins.
"For the sake of one's own selfish desires, you have even disregarded the inheritance of your sect!" The old woman Shenqiao gritted her teeth and flew towards the place where several supreme elders were in seclusion.
As soon as Lin Xian entered the Sutra Library, he was like a fish entering the sea or a tiger returning to the mountains, no longer bound by constraints. He asked the system to record all the magical scriptures in the Sutra Library, trying to figure out the spirits and forms in them, but he did not specialize in them.
The only things I really studied seriously were the initial chapter of the Daoist Scripture and a few fragments of works by saints passed down from the Jade Ding Cave Heaven.
Comparing it with the fragments of several saints, Lin Xian felt that the Tianxuan Bible was more and more mysterious and profound. It was worthy of being the holy land where the immortal road was conquered six thousand years ago. The scriptures passed down were also far beyond the ordinary saints' scriptures.
After meditating in the Sutra Library for several days, Lin Xian's spiritual sense detected that someone was secretly observing him, so he came up with a plan.
One day, when Lin Xian was comprehending a magic spell, he suddenly vomited blood and his face turned pale, as if he was suffering from the backlash of his magic.
Elder Ma Yun was shocked when he heard this, and came to persuade Lin Xian not to comprehend too many scriptures to avoid conflicts.
Lin Xian agreed on the surface, but he sneaked into the Sutra Library every night to read the scriptures. As time passed, his aura became stronger, but his expression became paler.
Finally, one night, on his way to the Sutra Repository, he accidentally fell down, and the dignified monk took a long time to gasp for air before he recovered.
After recovering, Lin Xian's expression changed drastically. He did not bother to go to the Sutra Library as usual, but jumped out of Yuding Cave alone, found a stone chamber that had been excavated in advance, and hid there.
Sitting cross-legged in the stone chamber, sensing the increasingly approaching figure, his breath was weak, and his face was pale, but suddenly a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Question Ye Fan, understand Ye Zi, become Ye Hei, and surpass Xiao Heizi.
