Becoming a leader of the immortal path begins with sowing the seeds of inner demons.

When Feng Zai, who was cultivating, found himself standing in the Moon Palace again, he immediately said with joy, "Greetings, Senior."

Ever since the incident involving the reverse cultivation, he had been very uneasy, fearing that Lu Ming would look down on him because of it.

Moreover, after that incident, he was not contacted for a long time, which made him increasingly anxious and unable to concentrate on his cultivation several times.

Being able to return to the Moon Palace finally put his mind at ease.

"No need for formalities." A grand voice, tinged with a hint of weariness, echoed through the palace.

"I only came here to see if you are facing any obstacles in your cultivation."

"I am deeply honored by your concern, senior!" Feng Zai bowed deeply with emotion. "Thanks to your blessing, senior, my injuries have healed by about 70 or 80 percent."

"In a few more days, I will be able to return to the Foundation Establishment stage."

"it is good."

As soon as he finished speaking, Feng Zai saw ancient books falling from the sky one after another, piling up into a small mountain in front of him.

Feng Zai was stunned for a moment before he reacted and asked in confusion, "What do you mean by this, senior?"

"How can one cultivate oneself in isolation?"

Only by learning from the strengths of many can one validate one's own approach.

Lu Ming was so tired that his mind was a complete mess, and he was too exhausted to come up with anything new, so he simply used Chen Mo's words.

Feng Zai listened thoughtfully, then slowly stepped forward, picked up a book at random, glanced at it, and his expression changed drastically. He exclaimed in shock, "Senior, this... this is the lost 'Yin Fu Jing' from five hundred years ago?!"

Is this the "High Emperor's Heart Seal Sutra"? The sect's sacred code from the Jade Emperor Palace in Chongzhou three hundred years ago?

The Complete Version of "The Inner Chapters of Enlightenment"?!

Wasn't this book damaged seven hundred years ago due to the great war between the sects of Yaozhou and Liezhou...?

Feng Zai became more and more excited as he spoke, like a mouse that had fallen into a granary. He was so excited that he trembled all over, his face turned red, and he could no longer hold any more books. When he saw even better ones in the mountain of books, he was so anxious that he scratched his ears and cheeks, wishing he could grow ten hands.

In the end, he carefully selected dozens of books, holding them tightly in his arms like he was holding his own son, and looked up, his voice trembling, saying, "Senior, senior."

"Is all of this for me?"

"Hmm." Lu Mingwei said sternly, "Your constant asceticism in the mountains is not a solution."

You must read these books diligently in the future, lest I ask you about them later and you only have a superficial understanding.

Upon hearing this, Feng Zai stood frozen in place. A moment later, two streams of tears welled up in his eyes, leaving Lu Ming somewhat bewildered. He could only tentatively ask, "What do you mean by this?"

Feng Zai snapped out of his daze, carefully placed the book in his arms aside, knelt down with a thud, and said, word by word.

"I lost both my parents when I was young. If it weren't for my master's rescue, I would probably have been devoured by wild beasts long ago."

I, a junior, do not understand any particular principle, but I know the four words: gratitude and repaying kindness.

The kindness of our predecessors in giving us a second chance at life is no different from the kindness of our Master in saving our lives!

I regret that my cultivation is too shallow and that my master's dying wish has not been fulfilled, so I am not worthy to become your disciple.

Please accept my three bows, senior!

As he spoke, Feng Zai kowtowed several times, the sound echoing endlessly in the Moon Palace.

Seeing this, Lu Ming sighed helplessly and could only wait for Feng Zai to finish kowtowing before saying helplessly, "Get up."

Those who cultivate themselves need not concern themselves with empty formalities.

I am here to see you today not simply to bestow upon you the cultivation technique.

Have you ever seen this method before?

As they spoke, the mountain of books flew up and arranged neatly on both sides, after which mysterious golden characters began to slowly emerge in the void.

After reading only the beginning, Feng Zai was shocked and took several steps back, trembling as he said, "The Taiyin Xuanshui Scripture?"

"Senior, is this the Jade Flower Sect's most treasured martial arts technique?"

"Exactly." Seeing Feng Zai's flustered appearance, Lu Ming asked疑惑地问道, "What are you afraid of?"

Feng Zai quickly composed himself and said calmly, "I am deeply grateful for your guidance, senior."

However, if the Jade Flower Sect finds out that their cultivation technique has been leaked, a bloodbath will surely erupt in Jade River Prefecture.

Senior, the cultivation world today is not what it used to be.

Back then, you could exchange knowledge with various schools and sects, but now everyone is extremely protective of their own martial arts techniques.

If an outsider were to covet the sect's techniques, it would be a matter of life and death!

"Kill...and face death?" Lu Ming was stunned.

This is completely different from what he heard.

Moreover, the Jade Flower Sect's signature cultivation technique is inscribed on the highest mountain cliff without any array obstructing it.

As long as you're within the territory of the Jade Flower Sect, you can see it as soon as you look up.

I'm not afraid of you learning, I'm just afraid you won't be able to learn it.

And those so-called lost and precious martial arts techniques mentioned by Feng Zai... some of them are indeed kept in the ancient book section of the Scripture Pavilion, and are not easily lent out.

If he weren't a disciple of Jia Shang and had Chen Mo's proof, he wouldn't have been able to borrow it.

However, the value of these techniques lies not in their practice, but in their antiquity.

The reason for not lending them out is that we are afraid students will not read them attentively and will damage the ancient books.

Secondly, the senior brother who looked after the Sutra Repository mentioned to him that these techniques were outdated.

Treating it as a pastime is fine, but it's easy to go astray when it comes to real cultivation.

The reasons given by Feng Zai are completely different?

How can there be such a big difference in understanding between people who are also cultivating immortality?

One has taken steps towards cooperation and mutual benefit, while the other is still living with a mindset of keeping something back.

Lu Ming was very curious about this and asked, "Who told you all this?"

"Replying to Senior, it was my master who told me." Feng Zai glanced longingly at the Taiyin Xuanshui Scripture floating in the air, but reason quickly made him look away.

I can't watch it; I can't let him cause trouble for my seniors.

"......"

Sensing Feng Zai's emotions, Lu Ming was speechless and asked again, "Where is your master from?"

Feng Zai was taken aback, and quickly replied, "Senior, my master is also from Chenzhou."

That's even more wrong.

The little figure that Lu Ming had conjured stroked his chin, looking thoughtful.

Could it be that True Person Yin Xuan failed the selection process of the Jade Flower Sect?

But the cultivators in this state have all reached the Golden Core stage and established their own sects. They usually deal with the Jade Flower Sect, so they should know a little about the current state of the cultivation world, right?

Lu Ming thought about it for a while, but couldn't come up with a solution, so he simply put the matter aside.

The most important thing right now is to pass the senior brother's test in two days and maintain the image of a genius.

Thinking of this, Lu Ming's voice became serious. "No need to be nervous."

You should try to figure it out first.

I'll find a way later.

Upon hearing this, Feng Zai mustered his courage and looked at the scriptures, soon becoming engrossed in them.

But not long after, he suddenly frowned and asked in confusion, "Senior, the Qi Refining Method of the Jade Flower Sect seems to be different from that of ordinary cultivators."

Ordinary cultivators need to use spiritual energy as a guide to infuse their true energy with the properties of spiritual energy, which will greatly increase the power of their spells.

The true energy of the Jade Flower Sect cultivators is said to be like water and air, having form but no substance.

The junior is puzzled and hopes the senior can enlighten him.

After being asked the question, Lu Ming remained silent for a long time before slowly saying, "First, study hard. With your talent, you will definitely understand the difference."

If you really don't understand something, just write it down, and I'll explain it to you in two days.

"Yes!" Feng Zai seemed to have received great encouragement and looked at the scripture again.

Lu Ming had already picked up his pen, ready to record any doubts that popped into Feng Zai's mind.

After an unknown amount of time, Feng Zai suddenly exuded a light and ethereal aura, and his consciousness became much more solid.

Lu Ming was overjoyed at the sight and was about to record Feng Zai's thoughts when he suddenly sensed something and looked in confusion towards the Moon Palace thousands of miles away.

Where did the black aura come from?
