Mysterious mirror hanging high

After hearing Jing Yu's smooth and tactful answer, Qi Liyan smiled for the first time and said, "You are so slick at such a young age."

"I heard that the other four Peak Masters all gave you a welcome gift. As the Peak Master of Zhongyue, I can't be stingy."

After saying that, Qi Liyan used his magic power to pass the bamboo slip in his hand to Jing Yu:

"This is a secret technique for the spiritual pupils, named [Hai Zi Yin Ling Tong Guang]. It uses the two hours of [Hai Shi] and [Zi Shi] every day to refine the Yin Ling Xuan Qi and nourish the spiritual pupil light. It belongs to the Yin Water Path, and is perfect for water-based cultivators."

"When practiced to a minor degree, [Haizi Yinling Pupil Light] has the ability to freeze the body and kill the soul. The most rare thing is that when this pupil technique is practiced to the major stage, it will be of some help in opening the [eye orifice] of the cultivator when they form an infant. It can be regarded as a semi-secret technique for opening the orifice. If you are aiming to reach the Seven Orifices and above, practicing this pupil technique will be of great benefit."

"The secret technique of awakening the mind!"

Jing Yu's eyes lit up. Qi Liyan was really generous.

It should be noted that the Xianzhou world is not like those big worlds that have developed and evolved for hundreds of millions of years. After all, it is still a newly born small world. What's more, it has experienced a great extinction. The immortal civilization was almost interrupted, and the immortal inheritance is not complete. Most of the truly advanced skills have to be picked up from the secret realms of the caves and heavens that fell from the sky (in fact, the corpses of cultivators above the cave realm in the upper realm).

Among them, the secret technique of forming a baby and opening the orifices is even more scarce. The [Brahma Sound] that Jing Yu obtained before in the [Mirr Mountain Ruins] is a sound wave-type magical power that helps to open the [oral orifices]. If Jing Yu wants to open all nine orifices at the same time, it is necessary to collect the secret technique of opening the orifices. Now that he has obtained another secret technique that helps to open the orifices, he is naturally happy.

Of course, the small world also has its advantages, that is, large areas of land and sea are still in an undeveloped and wild state. The resource utilization rate is naturally not comparable to that of the large world that has developed for hundreds of millions of years and has reached the pinnacle of various secret inheritances. However, there are more original resources and not many people are competing for them, so high-level cultivators live quite comfortably.

However, high-level cultivators naturally lack the motivation to explore the wilderness. After all, the places with the richest spiritual energy in the entire Xianzhou world have already been occupied by them. Although there are still large areas of resources in the wilderness that have not been developed, most of the spiritual energy is only at the level of foundation-building pills, which cannot be compared with the holy places of cultivation like Zhongzhou.

Artificially cultivating spiritual energy is a time-consuming and labor-intensive technical job. If one lacks the strength to protect the territory, one may end up becoming an obstacle for others. Therefore, not many cultivators would spend too much energy on cultivating a Taoist temple.

As a result, the entire fairyland entered a strange balance. The power structure of each continent was roughly determined. The forces of good and evil would mostly engage in low-intensity wars in ready-made domains with rich spiritual energy. High-level cultivators would occasionally go to the wilderness to search for natural treasures. Only the weak sects that could not survive in the real world would try to open up new lands in the wilderness.

This is also why the Xianzhou Realm has rules like once the Nascent Soul is achieved, all old grudges are resolved. When one reaches the level of a Nascent Soul True Lord, even the extremely opposing forces of good and evil won't necessarily fight to the death the moment they meet. Divine Transformation Heavenly Lords are even more likely to sit down and discuss the Dao, maintaining a harmonious atmosphere...

"Alright, little friend Xuan Jing, you can do as you please. The ordinary inheritances within the academy are now fully open to you, and some of the core inheritances are also open. You can choose to learn them, but before learning the core inheritance, you must swear an inner demon oath not to pass it on to others. You should understand the rules."

As soon as Qi Liyan said this, he ordered him to leave. Jing Yu was also a sensible person, so he bowed and left.

Seeing Qi Baisheng about to leave, the Zhongyue Zhenjun stopped him and said, "You stay."

Qi Baisheng turned around obediently, stood where he was, and whispered, "Grandfather..."

Qi Liyan said calmly, "How's your practice of the [Holy Words and Imperial Laws] going?"

Qi Baisheng said respectfully, "In reply to Grandfather, I have just recently cultivated this magical power to the minor success stage... I can now change the direction of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth on a small scale, eliminate spells, and prohibit magical powers, but I still have a long way to go before I can achieve full success."

"It's a bit slow." Qi Liyan frowned and said, "There are only thirty-six years left until [Penglai Meeting]. If you can't cultivate this magical power to perfection before then, you probably won't be qualified to enter [Xuanyuan Yuhuatian]."

"Forgive my frankness..." Qi Baisheng said cautiously, "Even if I truly master this top-level Confucian magical power to perfection, I'm afraid it will be difficult to get into the top three."

"This generation of golden and purple geniuses from various sects are almost the strongest in a thousand years. Normally, the two Zhongzhou Guans almost always secure two spots. Only when geniuses emerge from the Sword Pavilion or Songfeng Pavilion do they have the opportunity to compete with the disciples of the two major sects. Now that a Taoist named Xuanjing has arrived, I'm afraid he will take the lead."

"You seem to have a very high opinion of Taoist Xuan Jing?" Qi Liyan said leisurely.

"My grandson once battled him in a secret realm a few years ago. Although he was one level lower than me, the final result was a draw... Among all the golden and purple geniuses I've met, he's undoubtedly the strongest in combat power... I'm afraid he possesses some innate Dao body that enhances his combat abilities."

"In this case, we need to work even harder." Qi Liyan said, "Grandfather, let me give you a tip. The changes in the earth veins in Zhongzhou in recent years have affected the [Xuanyuan Yuhuatian] embedded in the ground. This has increased the number of admissions by two. Thirty-six years from now, the number of people who can enter the [Penglai Meeting] will no longer be the top three, but the top five!"

"Even if [Jingxu Taoist] from Juntian Temple, [Xuanweizi] from Liangyi Temple, [Chu Jingsheng] from Jiange, and [Xuanjing Taoist] from Xuance Sect each take one seat, who else could take the fifth seat but you? Could it be that you're still no match for Xu Baiwei?"

Qi Baisheng hesitated for a moment and said, "Speaking of Xu Baiwei... Father, is the once-in-five-year Five Mountains Forum still going to be held?"

Qi Zhengyan's face revealed a look of sarcasm. "I originally established this [Five Mountains Discussion] to bridge the rift between the Five Mountains. It was intended to provide a place for the younger generation of Five Mountains disciples to exchange their cultivation experiences and strengthen fellow disciples' friendships. However, over the past few decades, the number of participants has been decreasing..."

"Forget it. It doesn't matter whether I do it or not. I don't want to put my face on that cold butt anymore."

"Alas, the Five Mountains are divided, we can't just watch them break up like this..." Qi Baisheng sighed.

"What are you afraid of? It's not the first day that the Five Mountains have been alienated. This is the root of the disaster that was planted ten thousand years ago when the [Five Sons of Songfeng] united the Five Mountains. Is it just a matter of a hundred or two hundred years?" Qi Liyan laughed and said, "The fact that Songfeng Pavilion can still hold together as a whole is simply due to the Supreme One!"

"After all, this world still belongs to the God-Transforming Heavenly Monarch."

"The Supreme has plenty of life left now, and I'm afraid he won't consider ascending until a thousand years later. Now, the Five Peaks Masters, Xiao Guanyue, Wu Kaizhi, and I all have some hope of becoming gods. As long as any one of us achieves this, Songfeng Pavilion will not fall apart!"
