Gou Zai Fei Men made up myths

The entire library began to undergo changes that were imperceptible to the naked eye, yet undeniably real!

The space seemed to be stretched and folded by some force. From the outside, the small wooden building was still dilapidated, but the sense of space inside suddenly became much more open and profound!

The distance between the bookshelves seemed to have increased, and the ceiling appeared higher, completely dispelling the original cramped and oppressive feeling!

The musty smell in the air was replaced by a faint, calming sandalwood scent, and the light seemed softer and brighter.

Most importantly, an indescribable, gentle yet vast "Taoist charm" began to permeate the air. When inhaled, it brought a sudden clarity to one's mind!

Editing, successful!

Suppressing his excitement, Shen Mo walked to a bookshelf and randomly pulled out the most ordinary book, "An Introduction to Herbs and Trees".

As he turned the pages, he was surprised to find that the originally dry words and simple illustrations seemed to come alive in his eyes. The descriptions of the characteristics of the spiritual herbs became easier to understand, and he could even faintly feel the faint vitality contained in the plants in the illustrations!

Reading and comprehension efficiency has more than doubled!

"This...is this the effect of 'a universe within' and 'condensing the essence of the Dao'?" Shen Mo stroked the pages of the book, feeling the mysterious changes, and his heart was filled with a sense of accomplishment.

This library will be completely different from now on!

He suppressed the urge to immediately summon his disciples to announce it, and decided to observe for a few days first to see if the change was stable and what the specific effects would be on different disciples.

He also decided that in his spare time he could use the knowledge from his previous life to "fabricate" some miscellaneous books, such as "The Travels of Ancestor Liuyun," to enhance the sect's foundation.

The next day, when the first group of disciples who came to the Sutra Repository to consult the classics or complete their homework according to the duty roster pushed open the wooden door, everyone was stunned.

"Huh? This...this place seems different?" Sun Xiaolan was the first to sense something was wrong. She looked around in confusion. "It feels...much more spacious? And brighter? And there's a nice fragrance?"

Wang Hu exclaimed in surprise, "Yes! And in here, I feel particularly clear-headed! There were many parts of this book, 'A Brief Analysis of Meridians,' that I didn't understand before, but after reading it today, it seems... it seems like I understand a little bit?"

Even Shi Tie, who was usually the most restless, scratched his head and muttered when Su Xiao forced him to memorize the basic techniques: "This is strange. I don't seem so irritable in this room. These winding characters seem a little easier to remember?"

The changes were subtle, yet undeniably real. The disciples soon discovered that their efficiency in reading, understanding, and memorizing cultivation manuals within the Sutra Repository was far greater than before!

Some previously perplexing concepts often become clear in that tranquil and clear atmosphere with a sudden flash of insight! Even the insights gained through meditation are slightly more effective than those gained outside!

The news spread like wildfire, and the Scripture Pavilion instantly became the most popular place in the sect. Disciples flocked there, and some even needed to make reservations in advance.

Su Xiao had to revise the usage rules to be more detailed.

The biggest surprise came a few days later.

In preparation for his next soak in the spirit pool, Shi Tie wanted to find a way to alleviate pain during physical training in the scripture pavilion. Although he did not find a specific method, he lingered for a long time in front of a tattered book called "Miscellaneous Talks on Body Training" left by some unknown predecessor.

The miscellaneous text contained only a few blurry diagrams illustrating the exertion of luck and a few vague incantations.

Shi Tie stared at the diagram, but his mind kept replaying the skillful use of force by Han Lin in deflecting and guiding his opponent's power during their previous sparring session.

Under the influence of the peculiar Daoist aura in the Sutra Pavilion, he had a sudden inspiration. Combining the characteristics of his own "Giant Spirit Shaking Mountain Technique," he vaguely comprehended the rudimentary form of a technique that could instantly unleash all the power of his body into a single point, while simultaneously shocking and injuring the enemy!

He excitedly ran outside to practice. Although his moves were rough, when he hit the test stone with a stick, fine cracks appeared on the surface of the boulder, and it emitted a dull hum, indicating that its destructive power was significantly increased!

"Sect Leader! Sect Leader! I... I think I've figured out a move!" Shi Tie was so excited that his face turned red as he rushed to the Sect Leader's Hall to report to Shen Mo.

Upon hearing the details and personally watching his demonstration, Shen Mo was filled with joy. The "Daoist aura" of this Scripture Pavilion not only enhanced learning efficiency but could even aid in enlightenment!

Although the half-form Shi Tiewu came up with was still very rough, it undoubtedly proved the great value of the "Inner Universe" editor!

"This technique originates from your own insights and accumulation. The Daoist principles of the Scripture Pavilion merely helped you break through that layer of paper."

Shen Mo praised Shi Tie, saying, "Practice diligently and perfect it; this may become your unique trump card. Let's name this move 'Mountain Shaking Tremor'."

"Mountains tremble! Excellent! Thank you, Sect Leader!" Shi Tie was overjoyed and regarded the Scripture Pavilion as a deity.

After this incident, the disciples flocked to the Scripture Pavilion even more, hoping to absorb some of the "Taoist essence" and discover their own destiny.

Shen Mo also placed a copy of "Optimization of Basic Breathing Method (Draft)" in the pavilion, allowing disciples to borrow it for reference. However, he made it clear that this article was still theoretical and needed to be tried carefully in combination with one's own situation. He also encouraged disciples to offer suggestions for improvement.

This initial draft of the cultivation technique, which integrates the wisdom of two worlds, indeed caused quite a stir.

In particular, disciples with meticulous minds such as Su Xiao and Zhao Qingyan were deeply inspired after carefully studying the text. They tried to apply those optimization techniques in their own cultivation and indeed felt that the flow of spiritual energy was smoother.

Although the improvement was slight, the cumulative effect was considerable. Their admiration for Shen Mo reached an unparalleled level.

The sect leader actually created his own cultivation technique! Although it's just a basic optimization, it's still astonishing!

Shen Mo claimed that this work was compiled from his master's notes and combined with his own insights, once again attributing the credit to "the master's legacy," thus further consolidating his own position and the sect's cohesion.

Standing in front of the newly renovated Sutra Repository window, looking at the disciples diligently cultivating in the open space below, Shen Mo's heart was filled with hope.

With the Body Tempering Pool solidifying its foundation and the Scripture Pavilion enhancing comprehension and inheritance, the Qingyun Sect's development has finally entered a virtuous cycle on the fast track.

The chill of the Body Tempering Pool nourished the disciples' bones and muscles, while the Daoist charm of the Scripture Pavilion enlightened their understanding. Within the Qingyun Sect, like bamboo shoots in spring, growth was quietly taking shape.

Shen Mo's gaze had turned to a deeper level—to impart knowledge and skills, and to unite people's hearts in the Dao.

A sect is not only powerful because it has blessed lands and treasured scriptures, but also because of the lineage of its disciples who pass on the torch and the teachers who can transform the obscure Dao into sweet rain to nourish their disciples.

The Qingyun Sect is now diligent in its disciples and has gradually accumulated more resources. However, high-level guidance, especially for the various obstacles and confusions encountered by many disciples in the early and middle stages of Qi Refining on their cultivation path, still mainly relies on sporadic pointers from Shen Mo, Han Lin, and others. There is a lack of a systematic and efficient mechanism for teaching and resolving doubts.

On this day, Shen Mo stood on a relatively flat and open slope on the east side of the main peak.

This place offers an excellent view, overlooking the mountain gate and gazing at the sea of ​​clouds in the distance. Occasionally, a mountain breeze sweeps across the hills, accompanied by the sound of rustling pines, creating a serene and tranquil atmosphere.

He envisioned building a "preaching platform" here, as a place for regular lectures, gathering disciples, and answering questions.
