The Wheel-Turning Master.

Chapter 218 Enlightenment
Arrived at Gu Yao's cave.

The two walked to the small pond and bowed together.

Aunt Gu naturally couldn't see it, so she could only use this puddle of water as a substitute.

"Auntie Gu lives in the Water Curtain Cave. I'm afraid her water will never run dry." Lin Bai glanced at the trickle of water falling from the small pool. He muttered to himself, but his face became more respectful.

"Sit down!" Gu Yao waved her fist while speaking, as if she was still angry with Gu Lianzhu.

Lin Bai stepped forward obediently, and the two of them sat cross-legged facing each other beside the small pond.

I wanted to stir the pool, but I didn't dare.

"Take it out." Gu Yao's voice was buzzing, not very happy.

Lin Bai would not make her angry at this moment, so he was very obedient.

He took out the storage ring and took out the collections one by one.

There were only six high-grade spirit stones in the Yuanying's storage ring. Lin Bai threw them to Gu Yao and said, "Keep them and buy candy for Gu Lianzhu."

"Okay." Gu Yao accepted it.

"..." Lin Bai thought she would fall back and let Miaomiao buy candy, but he didn't expect her to shamelessly accept it.

Lin Bai had no choice but to bear it. A few spiritual stones were not even enough to add to the Nascent Soul's collection.

Lay out the remaining items in order and taste them together.

A wooden stick, as thick as a baby's arm and three feet long, contains vibrant vitality.

Holding it in your hand, you will feel infinite strength from the inside out, your spiritual power will be full, and your consciousness will be stronger. It is an item that helps with recovery.

The tentacles are extremely heavy, probably weighing three or four hundred kilograms.

"This should be taken from some high-level spiritual wood, which has grown for thousands of years at least. It is a good thing." Gu Yao commented, "It is a must-have for killing people and stealing goods, or for counterattacks! If you want to make the best use of it, I'm afraid you have to make it into a magic weapon, but that has reached the Golden Core realm."

Lin Bai was a country bumpkin, and although he had killed many people and robbed many people, he had never seen anything valuable. From Zhang Han's bellyband, to Song Qing's spring book, to the sea cucumber pills from Jiuyin Mountain, there were really few decent things.

If we talk about appreciation, we have to look at the descendants of Yuanying.

However, when Lin Bai looked at Gu Yao, he always felt that she was unsure and her words were repetitive. If he changed the subject and slightly modified her words, it would not be a big deal.

Lin Bai picked up a book of animal skins, which should be the skin of a sea monster. The tentacles were smooth and hairless.

It was only the size of a Yao face plate, with densely packed tiny handwriting on it.

Look at the crooked words at the top, they are De Lu Zhen Jing.

Gu Yao came over to take a look, then nodded and said, "It is the fundamental method of cultivation. It can at least reach the Nascent Soul stage."

She looked at Lin Bai and said, "The Ruyi Jingxin Jue you practiced is not top-grade, but it is good in that anyone can practice it. However, according to your destiny, it is best to specialize in Taoism. You can try to learn it, maybe you will be compatible with it."

Although Lin Bai had not tried it yet, he knew that this method might not suit him. He felt nothing in his heart, without any desire.

"You can make a copy later and we can split it equally!" Lin Bai was very generous.

In fact, I have to be generous. This thing is not unique, so I can naturally copy one or two.

Besides, since he was under Aunt Gu's thumb, how could he not show his loyalty to her?
Of course, you can keep it to yourself. I’m sure the Gu family won’t say anything, but you can just keep it a secret.

The Nascent Soul has been passed down for thousands of years, and people may not meet someone who can practice this method for the time being, but their foundation is here. If there happens to be a younger generation who is compatible with it, then they can take it out at any time.

This moment was not like the previous time in the cave at the bottom of the lake. At that time, Huang Ruhua was anxious to learn the secret of life, but Lin Bai and Zhu Jianyang had already achieved their goal, so they did not want to create any trouble and had no intention of copying it down at all.

"Okay." Gu Yao nodded as a matter of course. She also knew that enriching the Sutra Library would benefit future generations.

After reading the Delu Sutra, Gu Yao picked up another magic pill.

The demon pill is formed when the demon beast forms a pill. As the realm becomes higher, it becomes stronger. The various uses of it depend on what kind of demon beast it is.

Demon pills also come in different qualities, and often have a bit of violent energy, so they need to be refined carefully. But even so, demon pills are extremely precious.

This demon pill was emerald green with water patterns on it. It was about the size of Gu Lianzhu's head, but it was obviously more durable than Gu Lianzhu.

Gu Yao pressed her hand on it and used a little spiritual power, and the demon pill began to emit misty water.

For a moment, Lin and Gu heard the sound of surging waves in their ears, as if they saw the tide rising in the blue sea and were being swept into the endless waves.

Flooded and overwhelmed.

Lin Bai felt dizzy and his consciousness was trembling. It was as if his body was out of control, drifting with the current and could be submerged by the huge waves at any time.

Calm down a little, the Hunyuan body will be effective, the sea of ​​consciousness will be stable, and you will get rid of confusion.

Looking at Gu Yao again, she was still staring with her big eyes, lifeless and dazed.

"Pa!" Lin Bai slapped him, snatched the demon pill and threw it into the puddle.

"It can be considered as a small revenge for Gu Lianzhu. Aunt Gu practices water magic, but since she doesn't want this magic pill, it must not suit her, or she has a better one." Lin Bai looked at half of Gu Yao's face, muttering in his heart.

Gu Yao's eyes regained their luster. She covered half of her face and said, "Uncle, you didn't even tell me in advance! You are a Jindan cultivator, but you are so unreliable!" She actually said that others were unreliable and gritted her teeth in anger. It seemed that she could not beat Gu Jiuzhong, otherwise she would definitely repeat the story of Gu Lianzhu.

"It's hard to find the truth in the misty sea." Lin Bai comforted him casually, saying, "It's a vast ocean, and getting lost in it is not uncommon." He pointed at the demon pill and continued, "This demon pill should have been obtained from a sea monster, and it may have the ability to swallow and spit out changes."

"I don't know where Lu Haike got it from." Gu Yao's anger came and went quickly, "But since he carries it with him, it must be closely related to him, or it must be extremely precious." After she finished speaking, she was still covering her face, and glared at Lin Bai angrily, saying: "You can wake me up with just a spiritual power, why did you slap me? And so hard?"

She became more and more angry as she spoke, "If you had used this energy to coax Xiuxiu, you would have had eight or ten children by now!"

“…” Lin Bai really felt that the Gu family was unreliable.

After talking for a few more words, Lin Bai picked up a huge shell and looked at the words on it.

Gu Yao hurried over to take a look.

The words on the shells were scattered and the sentences were incoherent, but the general meaning was that Lu Haike attained enlightenment by the sea and saw that mortals who went out to sea to fish were often hit by the waves, and every time they returned, three out of ten fishing boats were gone, or even more.

But even so, the fishermen were not discouraged, nor were they afraid. Wherever the ship sank, new ships came.

Lu Haike saw the change from the old to the new in the sunken boat and realized a method called "Sinking Boat to Overcome Disaster".

It is a method of replacing the old with the new, of putting something to death before it can be reborn. As for how to use it and where to use it, it is not explained in detail.

Later, Lu Haike felt deeply that the fishermen's lives were not easy, so he asked his disciples to protect them when they went out to sea, which saved countless lives.

"My alchemy theory is about going with the flow, moving your body but not your mind. This time, when I saw ordinary people in trouble, I actually felt compassion. This has gone against my original intention, and it will be difficult for me to achieve the great path in the future."

Seeing the end, Lin Bai and Gu Yao still didn't understand why Lu Haike's saving someone was against his conscience. But he was a Yuanying, so even farting was right, so Lin and Gu nodded repeatedly, as if they agreed.

"The theory of alchemy is so secretive to itself, how could Lu Haike put it into words? And what is the use of that secret method?" Gu Yao asked stupidly.

"Leave it to the ancestor." Lin Bai took the lead and put the shells into the small pond.

When the shells entered the water, they turned into dust and dissolved into the water, just like the Deer Sea Guest had dissolved into the sea and turned into nothingness.

Gu Yao picked up a palm-sized old wooden boat and said, "This should be an old item used by Lu Haike." After observing it carefully for a while, she felt it silently. Finally, she had no choice but to reach out her hand and stir the water in the pool.

Seeing this, Lin Bai quickly reached out to stir it.

Gu Yao didn't care and just smiled.

After a while, Gu Yao said, "The ancestor said that this item was used by Lu Haike when he was in the Jindan realm. It can neutralize the Jindan's attack and borrow its power without being damaged. But with your and my abilities, I'm afraid we can only use it two or three times at most. After using it, you need to nourish the treasure ship."

"You may use it two or three times, but I may not. I have been drained dry time and time again, so naturally I can endure better than you." Lin Bai muttered in his heart, but he did not show it on his face. He just nodded in agreement.

The two chatted for a few minutes and then looked through the rest.

There is nothing interesting here, just some bottles and jars, and some precious spiritual herbs and materials.

"Lu Haike is too poor." Gu Yao complained.

It was your ancestor who took the most precious thing! Lin Bai did not dare to expose it, but just nodded in agreement, but in his heart he also blamed Lu Haike for not having any treasures.

I had expected a big harvest, but the result was just average. I guess Aunt Gu took away the things that could be used by the Nascent Soul, maybe for her own use, or maybe to give to the Cheng and Yang families.

Since there are only so many things, it's time to divide them up.

According to the previous bet, Lin Bai should take one item first, and the rest will be divided equally.

First, he took the demon pill into his arms, and Lin Bai said, "You are on a broken boat, or playing with a stick."

Among the remaining things, only the treasure ship and the trunk of the spiritual tree were the most extraordinary.

As for obtaining the Deer Sutra, each of them needs to copy it.

"..." Gu Yao was stunned for a moment, then gritted her teeth and said, "Gu Lianzhu misled me!"

"Don't be angry." Lin Bai comforted casually.

Gu Yao hesitated for a long time, then took the stick. Lin Bai quickly took the treasure ship in his hands.

The remaining spiritual materials and medicine bottles were divided equally between them. Gu Yao vowed that they could be exchanged for at least three to five thousand high-quality spirit stones.

Lin Bai was young and inexperienced, so he asked Gu Yao to exchange them for spirit stones on the spot, but Gu Yao just laughed and ignored him.

The two chatted some more. Gu Yao copied the De Lu Sutra, and Lin Bai got the original animal skin.

"Just go to the Sutra Library." Gu Yao took out a token and threw it to Lin Bai, saying, "I'm very busy."

"Are you sitting here trying to figure out the usefulness of that stick?" Lin Bai asked.

Gu Yao nodded with a smile, and it was obvious that she was very happy to get the treasure. In the previous battle, she was just a superfluous thing, and it was a great joy to be able to get a share of the reward.

Lin Bai didn't say any more to her. He left the cave and went to find Miaomiao and the other two.

"Come on, I'll take you to the Gu family's Sutra Library to see the heritage of two generations of Nascent Soul." Lin Bai took Miaomiao's hand.

"I... Senior, I'll let it go." Ye Qingmeng was born as a casual cultivator and suddenly came to Qingyun Mountain. He hasn't recovered yet.

"She's not an outsider." Lin Bai patted Ye Qingmeng's head again, "Xiao Yu'er, take good care of her."

He brought the three girls to the Sutra Library, the place where the Gu family inherited their legacy, and took out the token.

Lin Bai had been here before and knew the old foundation-building master who was guarding this place.

After exchanging a few words, he gave a bottle of Tiger and Wolf Pills and a bottle of Sea Cucumber Pills, then took the three women inside.

The three of them were only in the Qi training stage, so they were only on the first floor. Lin Bai went up to the fifth floor to see, this time he was looking for some forbidden techniques that suited him, as well as some fundamental Taoism that suited him.

When I went up to the fifth floor, I saw two rows of bookshelves, with jade slips on the top and text on the bottom. Unlike the lower floors, which were all filled with books.

After counting, there were only about twenty jade slips on the two rows of bookshelves.

Lin Bai never knew what politeness was, so he immediately stepped forward to look at the introduction.

There are quite a few forbidden and secret methods, but most of them are useless. For example, some secret methods that consume one's own blood and energy to benefit others, or some secret methods that forcefully stimulate the essence but cause chaos in the mind.

There are also some secret methods that need to be in harmony with one's own destiny in order to take shape.

"The reason why a secret method is a secret method is not because it is secret, but because most people don't use it very often."

Lin Bai kept complaining in his heart and found a secret method called "Tiancan Jue".

The so-called heavenly silkworm is just a symbol, which means to be trapped in one's own cocoon. This method is to exchange injuries for injuries, hurting others by three points and hurting oneself by five points, and both the sea of ​​qi and the sea of ​​consciousness will feel blocked.

"If you think about it carefully, the method used by Lu Qingyin is also a way to hurt others and yourself. It's just that hers is more bizarre."

Lin Bai sighed and gave up the idea of ​​practicing this useless secret technique.

After another round, he finally saw the forbidden technique called "Transformation and Soul Stealing", as well as the secret technique of "Using Life as a Cage", which should be a similar method to what Lu Qingyin learned.

After looking at it for a while, Lin Bai remembered what Gu Jiuzhong had told the ancestor, and finally did not touch it.

"The former is against the will of heaven. The latter may be useful, but forget it..."

"Take them by surprise, use risky tactics, and use evil methods to confuse the eyes. I just need to respond to it uprightly. No matter how evil you are, how can you deceive me? I did this in the battle against Lu Qingyin, and I will do this in my actions. I should do this even more in the future."

"It's not that the secret method cannot be practiced, but there is no need to force it."

"I have successfully tempered my body with the primordial energy, and cultivated the earth-fire sword intent, imitating the pure intent of Chen Tianren. I am proficient in the methods of alchemy, the art of formation, and am familiar with the art of making talismans."

"With the Star Escape Technique as a supplement, why should I fear others?"

"I don't need to practice secret techniques or forbidden skills, I just need to know them."

Lin Bai sat down cross-legged, thought for a long time, then stood up and went downstairs.

Miaomiao and the other two girls had disappeared, and only Gu Yao was waiting outside the door.

"I thought you could practice some forbidden technique!" Gu Yao laughed.

"As a teacher, I should set a good example and not practice strange or forbidden techniques." Lin Bai said with a smile.

"The ancestor said that if you really practice that kind of magic, even if you don't use it, you will have it in your mind, and you may not use it in the future." Gu Yao smiled and pulled Lin Bai, "The road is difficult, don't go astray. That kind of magic is for those who have no hope of the road, but want to compete for supremacy. Lu Qingyin will not go far."

The two chatted while going to find Gu Laoquan to learn the art of formation.

He was too old, and only talked about the principles of formations, but rarely about the techniques of formations. It was quite general, but his views on formations were really insightful.

If you know how to use formations, you can learn it by yourself after some advice from others. If you don't know how to use formations, you still won't know how to use them even if you put them on your face.

Moreover, the formation requires comprehensive understanding. It is not necessary to know everything by just hearing one thing, but to be able to draw inferences from one example.

There are so many formations in the world, big and small, yin and yang, five elements, countless. But there are not many categories, either to assist in cultivation, or to kill, or to defend, or to confuse the enemy, all have traces to follow. Even to achieve a unique formation by itself.

After ten days, Gu Laoquan became increasingly short of breath, his hair turned white and withered, and his face looked even more decadent.
