Chapter 212: Left-handed Magic
Chapter 212: Left-handed Magic
For nearly half a month thereafter, Tian Lin practiced meditation in the mountains.
Before he came to the Daoist Sect, he had already asked for the formula of the 'Buddha Demon Pill' from Master Long Dan, and even saved up a storage bag of 'Buddha Demon Pill'.
After half a month of focused practice, although there is still a long way to go before the Buddha and Demon Freedom Art is perfected, Tian Lin believes that within half a year, the Buddha and Demon Freedom Art will be fully mastered.
Half a year may seem like a long time, but it is extremely rare to be able to cultivate a high-grade magical power to perfection in more than half a year.
I'm afraid only the inner disciples of the immortal sect can have such a speed of cultivation.
On this morning, when Tian Lin was meditating, Cui'er's voice rang out from outside the house: "Master, someone else is here. Could it be a disciple of the Taoist sect?"
Tian Lin stood up as Cui'er spoke. He walked out of the house leisurely and looked up at the young man high in the sky.
The young man was sitting on a gourd-like magical instrument, and his purple Taoist robe was the same color as the gourd under his seat.
Tian Lin was not sure whether this young man was a disciple of the Wendao Sect. After all, in the past half month, he often saw people entering the Wendao Mountains.
But without exception, these people are all Huahualang who came to seek immortality.
When Tian Lin looked at the young man in the sky, the young man in the sky also glanced at Tian Lin.
But he just glanced at Tian Lin and continued to fly deeper into the mountains.
At this time, several beams of light flew towards the young man, and an old man in the lead said, "I am Zhao Shou from Nanjun. Please take me in."
These escaping lights and the words of the man called Zhao Shou "awakened" all the cultivators in the Wendao Mountain Range.
In an instant, countless people were performing rituals and blocking the road.
The young man in the sky had a wine gourd in his hand, and he took a sip.
He opened his mouth and spit out ice arrows at the Hua Hua Lang who were blocking the way, and dozens of ice arrows shot down those Hua Hua Lang who were blocking the way from high altitude.
Everyone then saw him take out a badge from his waist and hold it high.
A passage connecting to another world appeared instantly, and just as the young man was about to enter the passage, Tian Lin also flew up and said, "I am Elder Yu's registered disciple. Nice to meet you, Senior Brother."
The young man who was about to enter the passage slapped the gourd under his seat, and the gourd turned around instantly. Not only did the gourd mouth face Tian Lin, but the young man on it also faced Tian Lin.
"You are Elder Yu's disciple, do you have any proof?"
Tian Lin had already taken out the wooden sign from the storage bag and handed it to the young man with both hands.
The young man took the wooden sign and finally gave it back to Tian Lin with both hands.
A smile appeared on his face, and he said, "Since you are Elder Yu's disciple, you are my junior brother. Please take my gourd seat."
Tian Lin looked at the Yu'er sister below. The two sisters met Tian Lin's gaze, suppressed their shock, and flew up.
The young man just glanced at the two sisters and slapped his wine gourd.
The wine gourd that could only accommodate one person suddenly expanded and became larger, making room for three people.
At this time, all the Huahualangs in the mountains came over, and some of them wanted to rush directly into the passage, bypassing the young man.
The young man snorted coldly but did not stop him.
But that person did not have a badge, and as soon as he stepped into the passage, a strong force of energy strangled him and turned him into bloody foam.
That man's experience frightened the others who wanted to sneak into the Wendao Sect and made them stop in their tracks.
At this moment, the young man slapped the wine gourd, and the wine gourd carried Tian Lin and his two servants into the passage.
At the end of the passage, a mountain range that was different from the outside world suddenly appeared in front of Tian Lin.
Occasionally, one or two disciples can be seen flying on swords in this mountain range.
Cranes kept flying back and forth in the clouds and mist.
Tian Lin has been thinking about this for several months, and now he is finally going to enter the Wendao Sect. He can't help but be excited.
The sisters Yu'er, who came from the Tong family, had never thought that one day they would be able to enter the Immortal Gate with the help of their newly recognized master. They were so excited that they could hardly hide it, and they both grabbed each other's clothes tightly.
"I asked about the Taoist temple, which was originally in Tianbei County. But a thousand years ago, something happened to the sect, so they had to move to the Northern Wilderness.
The current Taoist temple was renovated by Elder Yu and others - then again, Elder Yu left the sect nearly a thousand years ago, and I have not seen him since I was born.
You are luckier than me, Junior Brother. Not only did you get to meet him, but you also became his registered disciple."
"It was just luck, and I am also grateful to the master for his kindness."
"I see that you are not very old, but you have the foundation of the Five Elements Foundation. This shows that you have good talent. How can it be luck that you can become Elder Yu's registered disciple?"
As he spoke, his wine gourd stopped halfway up a mountain.
"Disciple Ju Yunhai wants to see the master!" There was a Taoist temple halfway up the mountain. The young man put down his wine gourd and immediately saluted towards the temple.
The gate of the Taoist temple opened, and a little Taoist boy walked out.
The little Taoist boy glanced at the young man and Tian Lin and said, "Master said that you should bring Elder Yu's disciple in."
Tian Lin didn't know when the young man had passed the message to the people in the Taoist temple, but since the other party knew his identity and wanted to let him in, there was naturally no reason to hesitate.
He followed the young man into the Taoist temple and saw an old man in Taoist robes sitting on a cushion in the main hall of the temple, holding a pair of cow horns in his hands.
He threw the horn to the ground and counted with his fingers for a while. Soon a quarter of an hour had passed. Only Ju Yunhai and Tian Lin were still bending at the door.
The old man raised his head, glanced at Tian Lin, and said, "I know your background and whereabouts. From now on, you will stay at Hulu Peak."
Tian Lin was shocked and looked at the bull horn in the old man's hand.
He didn't know what the old man had predicted.
But he has many secrets, the biggest of which is his identity as a time traveler.
Tian Lin did not dare to ask rashly, and only listened to the old man:
"I see that you are practicing the Five Elements Foundation Building. I think you will also practice the Five Elements Golden Pill Art in the future. But the Five Elements Golden Pill Art requires the practice of the Five Elements Dharmakaya. Have you chosen the Five Elements Magical Powers to build the Five Elements Dharmakaya?"
"Except for the Water-walking Dharmakaya I chose, I have not made any plans for the rest."
After hearing what Tian Lin said, the old man nodded and said, "Tian Yisheng Water Skill is a top-grade magical power, and it is the best to use it to cultivate the water-walking Dharmakaya. But Tian Yisheng Water Skill is the magical power of the Shuiyun Sect, and my sect does not have any auxiliary elixirs for Tian Yisheng Water Skill.
According to what I mean, you can change to practice the Wangchuan Technique of my sect. Wangchuan Technique is also a top-grade magical power, and the water-walking Dharma body cultivated from it will not be worse than Tianyisheng Water Art.
Most importantly, the sect has auxiliary elixirs for the Wangchuan technique, which can help you build a water-walking Dharma body faster."
Tian Lin politely said: "Disciple thanks Uncle Master for his kindness, but I have already started practicing Tian Yi Sheng Shui Jue——"
The old man waved his hand and said, "You are not my disciple, and it is only because Elder Yu is not in the sect that I am giving you some advice on his behalf.
But cultivation is ultimately your own business. Since you have chosen your own path, I will not interfere with you. Anyway, you can ask your senior brother about the supernatural powers required for the four Dharma bodies. "
After that, he said to Tian Lin: “I learned that in addition to the Taoist techniques practiced by the inner disciples, the Taoist sect also has more than a hundred unorthodox techniques.
All disciples of my Daoist sect, in addition to the main cultivation method, must also choose five other techniques of the left path. What do you plan to cultivate?"
Tian Lin was stunned for a moment, remembering the old man's divination method: "I want to learn the ability that Uncle Master just used, which is to be able to divine the origin of a person just by looking at him."
The old man was stunned for a moment and said:
"Your origins were not divined by me, but were told to me by your master in a letter five hundred years ago."
As he spoke, he pulled out a torn envelope from his sleeve, on which were written the words "Personally from Junior Brother Xue".
Tian Lin was stunned, and Ju Yunhai beside him couldn't help but said in surprise:
"Junior Brother Tian should not have been born five hundred years ago. How did Uncle Yu slip this letter away five hundred years ago? How did he know that I would bring Junior Brother Tian to see Master?"
The old man said, "In the sect, your uncle Yu's divination skills have long reached an unfathomable level. With his skills, there are few things in the world that can stump him."
After saying this, the old man looked at Tian Lin again: "Although divination is powerful, enlightenment is extremely important. If you really want to practice divination, your master should personally enlighten you. In addition, I said that the Taoist sect has a hundred other left-handed techniques, and you have to choose five of them as your future performance."
"I am a stupid disciple, and I don't know what the sect's evil ways are."
The old man said: "The left path includes formation learning, weapon refining learning, elixir learning, talisman paper learning, spiritual plant learning, beast control learning, mechanical learning——"
Word by word, he listed more than a hundred kinds of knowledge, and then detailed the differences and functions of these knowledge one by one.
After an hour had passed, he said, "Although many of these studies are unorthodox, each of them leads directly to the Great Way. You should not learn too much, but you should also not learn too little."
After hearing what he said, Tian Lin looked embarrassed.
Along the way, he has been working hard to improve his cultivation, and has never thought about learning some magical skills that cannot improve his cultivation.
However, the Daoist sect required its disciples to "develop comprehensively", but he not only had no foundation in these subjects, but also didn't know which technique was suitable for him to practice.
"You are a newcomer to the sect, and you have no family background. I heard from your master that you are a pure wild fox Zen. In this case, stay in the mountains for the time being, and come back to tell me the answer in half a month."
The old man's cultivation level is at the Nascent Soul stage, so he can be said to be very patient.
Tian Lin greeted the old man respectfully, and then went out under the guidance of Ju Yunhai.
"Uncle Xue has great cultivation, yet he is still able to teach me patiently. He is truly a master."
After leaving the Taoist temple, Tian Lin flattered the master.
He guessed that Elder Xue must be able to hear him, but since he was just trying to flatter him, why would he be afraid of the other party "eavesdropping"?
"Not really. My master has a terrible temper. It's just that you are Elder Yu's disciple, so he is willing to talk to you. Anyway, when you take his class in the future, you will know how annoying he is."
Ju Yunhai's words made Tian Lin's face turn green, and he could only remind him: "Brother, you'd better drink less."
Ju Yunhai laughed when he heard this: "Junior brother, you don't know that I can't practice the Dream Immortal Technique without drinking."
