A new path to immortality, a new journey

Master Su brought Bi Yao to a secluded bamboo forest. The bamboo leaves rustled and the atmosphere was a bit solemn.

He handed the ancient book to Bi Yao and said, "Now that you have been promoted to the inner sect, you are qualified to learn more advanced immortal techniques. However, this volume of 'Mysterious Spiritual Techniques' is so profound that only those with great wisdom can comprehend it. If you want to learn, you must first solve one of the ancient immortal puzzles."

Bi Yao took the book and felt it was heavy in her hand. The pages were yellowed and exuded an ancient atmosphere.

She opened the book and saw that it was covered with strange symbols, which made her scalp tingle.

"What kind of nonsense is this?" Bi Yao couldn't help but complain.

Master Su stroked his beard, his face full of mystery: "This is an ancient immortal text, not something that ordinary people can understand." He paused and continued, "You need to solve this puzzle within three days, otherwise..." Master Su did not finish, but the warning in his eyes was self-evident.

Bi Yao suddenly felt under tremendous pressure.

The puzzle seemed to her like a tangled mess with no clue at all.

Just then, Senior Brother Qin appeared out of nowhere and said in a sarcastic tone, "Hey, isn't this our Junior Sister Bi Yao? How come you started studying the Heavenly Book after being promoted to the Inner Sect? Don't bother. With your level of luck in being promoted, you probably can't even recognize all the words in this book."

Bi Yao glared at Brother Qin fiercely, thinking in her heart: You are a nitpicker!

But on the surface, he remained calm and simply replied, "Thank you for your concern, Brother Qin. I will do my best."

For the next three days, Bi Yao almost locked himself in the room, pondering over the puzzle.

She tried various methods, from modern logical reasoning to ancient divination and even Zhou Gong's dream interpretation, but there was still no progress.

As time passed, Bi Yao became more and more anxious.

"What the hell is this puzzle?" Bi Yao scratched his hair frantically, feeling like he was about to collapse.

She threw the book aside in annoyance, stood up and paced back and forth in the room.

At this moment, her eyes accidentally fell on an ancient tree outside the window...

"Wait..." Bi Yao suddenly stopped, a light flashed in her eyes, "Maybe..." She turned around abruptly, picked up the book "Xuanling Miaofa", looked at the ancient tree outside the window with a firm gaze, and muttered to herself: "I know where to go..." What Bi Yao thought of was the ancient tree in the Sutra Library that had witnessed countless years of changes.

Aren’t the annual rings of the ancient tree like a history book that records the passage of time?

Who knows, the key to solving the mystery may be hidden there!

She rushed to the Sutra Library in a hurry, but once again encountered the ever-present obstacle - the Book Spirit.

This book spirit is a fussy old man. Every time he asks Bi Yao to answer some tricky and weird questions before letting her go. It's even harder than the college entrance exam!

"Want to go in? Answer me first, what is 'Tao'?" Shu Ling's voice was a little teasing, as if he was sure that Bi Yao could not answer.

In the past, Bi Yao would definitely answer obediently, but this time she refused!

"'Tao'? I think 'Tao' is a path of continuous upgrading and fighting monsters! Just like when I play games, I have to solve the puzzle first before I can unlock the next level!" Bi Yao said shockingly and even made a "biu" gesture.

Shu Ling was stunned.

What kind of answer is this?

Could it be that this girl has been driven crazy by the puzzle?

But upon closer inspection, Bi Yao's words seemed to hold a certain philosophical truth... For the first time, he took a serious look at this seemingly unremarkable girl, a flicker of admiration in his eyes. "Interesting. What you said does... make some sense. Well, since you're so insightful, I'll give you a few pointers."

Thus, under the guidance of the book spirit, Bi Yao suddenly became enlightened!

She combined modern scientific thinking with the theory of immortality and actually found the key to solving the problem!

In her eyes, the complex symbols were no longer heavenly books, but strings of codes containing the mysteries of heaven and earth, waiting for her to decipher.

On the last day of the three-day deadline, Bi Yao came to Master Su with the solved puzzle.

Master Su looked at her, a rare flicker of approval in his eyes: "Not bad, you have lived up to my expectations."

When Senior Brother Qin, who was hiding in the dark, saw this scene, he clenched his fists tightly, his nails almost digging into his flesh.

He stared at Bi Yao with gritted teeth, his eyes full of jealousy and unwillingness.

"Bi Yao, what are you so proud of! This is just luck..." He whispered coldly, with a hint of viciousness in his eyes, "Next time, I won't let you be so lucky..." Bi Yao hummed a little tune and walked with a proud step towards the new training ground arranged for her by her master - "Luoxia Peak".

Luoxia Peak is full of spiritual energy. It is said that practicing here for one day is better than practicing for ten days elsewhere. It is a perfect place to level up and fight monsters!

Senior Brother Qin was so jealous before, but let’s see how jealous he is now!

However, as soon as Bi Yao stepped into Luoxia Peak, he felt that something was wrong.

The spiritual energy fluctuations around were running wildly like a wild horse. This was not just abundant spiritual energy, it was a spiritual energy riot!

"It's a trick!" Bi Yao's vigilance was instantly activated.

She squinted her eyes and carefully observed her surroundings.

Hmm, there's a faint smell of... cilantro in the air?

Bi Yao understood instantly that it was definitely the work of that sinister guy, Senior Brother Qin!

He must have secretly set up an interference formation here, hoping to make her fail in her cultivation so that he can take the opportunity to take over!

"Heh, you dare to show off your little tricks in front of me?" Bi Yao sneered, without any emotion in her heart, and even felt like laughing.

Back then, she had developed the skill of “countering every move” through various games full of loopholes!

Just a jamming array, no big deal~

Bi Yao took a deep breath and began to mobilize his spiritual power.

She did not confront it head-on, but found another way. She followed the veins of the formation and cleverly used the reverse fluctuations of spiritual power, just like playing Tetris, to disintegrate the structure of the formation bit by bit.

This display of skill left the fellow disciples watching stunned.

"666, Senior Sister Bi's operation is simply textbook-level!" "She is worthy of being the great master Bi Yao, she can even resolve this!" The sounds of praise came one after another, as if the screen was filled with barrages of comments.

Just when Bi Yao was about to completely break through the formation, with a smile of "everything is under control" on her lips... a cold voice came from behind: "Bi Yao, you..." Just when Bi Yao was about to completely break through the formation, with a smile of "everything is under control" on her lips... a cold voice came from behind: "Bi Yao, don't even think about succeeding!" Senior Brother Qin was dressed in white clothes as white as snow (fake, actually washed with bleach), with the words "If I don't have a good life, don't even think about having a good life" written all over his face, and he was holding a magic weapon that was flashing green light in his hand. It was obvious that he was not a good thing.

"Hey, isn't this Qin Lucha? I haven't seen you for a few days, and you're here to cause trouble again?" Bi Yao didn't even turn her head, but continued to move her hands to disintegrate the formation.

"Hmph, do you really think you can break my 'Coriander Enchantment'? Today I'll let you see how powerful it is!" Senior Brother Qin gritted his teeth, raised the magic weapon in his hand, and was about to increase the power of the formation.

Suddenly, a figure appeared behind Brother Qin like a ghost and patted him lightly on the shoulder.

Senior Brother Qin was startled and turned around to see that it was Li Yuan!

"Li...Brother Li, when...when did you come?" Senior Brother Qin stuttered and the magic weapon in his hand almost fell to the ground.

Li Yuan patted Brother Qin's shoulder with a smile, his tone as gentle as a spring breeze: "Brother Qin, the smell of coriander is a bit strong, it makes me dizzy, how about I help you get rid of the smell?" As he spoke, Li Yuan unnoticeably injected a wisp of spiritual power into the magic weapon in Brother Qin's hand, secretly destroying the core of the formation.

Before Senior Brother Qin could react, he felt the magic weapon in his hand suddenly buzzing, and then... with a "bang", it exploded!

Green light splashed everywhere, and the smell of coriander became stronger.

Senior Brother Qin was blown to pieces and looked confused.

At this time, Bi Yao had completely broken through the formation. She stretched, felt the abundant spiritual energy around her, and nodded with satisfaction.

"Well, the air is fresh and the sun is bright, which is suitable for cultivation." She sat down cross-legged and began to formally practice the new realm of immortality.

As the technique was practiced, the surrounding spiritual energy rushed into her body frantically, and her dantian seemed to have turned into a bottomless pit, greedily absorbing all energy.

Bi Yao felt the rapid growth of spiritual power in his body, and an unprecedented sense of power arose spontaneously.

She slowly opened her eyes, and a gleam of light flashed in them.

"What...what is this feeling?" Bi Yao murmured to herself. She felt as if she had touched a new world, a world that was even more vast and mysterious... Suddenly, she felt a strange breath coming from the depths of Luoxia Peak... "Who?"
