Gou Zai Liang Jie as a Human Gu

Inside the [Mysterious Heaven Treasure Mirror].

Lin Mo opened his eyes and looked at the sky displaying the results.

[The Lord of Xuantian, the biological son of King Li, was switched at birth by King Li and the son of a guard. He was raised in poverty to cultivate his ambitions, and plotted to conquer the world... In the end, all his efforts were in vain, and he was refined by the Wheel-Turning Dharma King of the Maitreya Sect.]

"It's still a matter of insufficient strength."

Lin Mo shook his head and sighed.

The world of cultivation is ultimately a world where strength reigns supreme.

Although he had made some progress in martial arts, he was still a novice at the first level of the Tribulation Transcending Realm in Xuanyu Cave Heaven.

Without a mentor or powerful backer, relying entirely on one's own hard work is incredibly difficult.

He now carries the karma of the previous dynasty's imperial legacy. If he does not rebel and seize the world, he will not be able to make further progress in his cultivation of Qi.

In the eyes of these venerable immortals and Buddhist practitioners, he was just a pawn.

What are chess pieces? They are things that are used and then discarded.

Lin Mo didn't believe that if he actually followed their arrangements and seized the world, they would compensate him by allowing him to cultivate Qi and enter the Dao.

Emperor Taizu of the Great Zhou Dynasty only achieved the state of Corpse Dissolution Immortal; he failed to cultivate Qi and enter the Dao.

Before he has even officially rebelled, various forces are already plotting to seize the imperial destiny he has been entrusted with.

Not to mention what will happen in the future; who knows how they'll manipulate things for me?

If it weren't for the [Mysterious Heavenly Mirror], I would have died long ago in the master's scheme.

"No, I have to work harder to become stronger!"

Lin Mo then became worried again, as no one had become a Qi Refiner in the past ten thousand years.

This road is clearly problematic and cannot be repaired.

However, the Dao of Qi Absorption has lost its lineage and has no subsequent cultivation methods.

The road ahead is a precipice, changing tracks is an insurmountable chasm, and every turn leads to a dead end.

[Having grasped the basics of the Dao of Qi Cultivation, the opportune moment has arrived, activating a new world!]

"what?"

Lin Mo's eyes lit up, and he immediately stepped into the [Palace of Myriad Realms].

There were originally three boundary gates inside the hall.

[The Great Zhou Dynasty], [Mysterious Jade Grotto], [Dream Ruins Blessed Land]

At this moment, the brand-new portal next to us already has information.

[Reversed to Immortality]: An Unknown Land of Cultivation

Looking at the fourth gate in front of him, Lin Mo raised an eyebrow slightly.

The annotation this time is "an unknown place for cultivating immortality", not "an unknown grotto for cultivating immortality".

Having experienced so much, Lin Mo now understands the relationship between the Great Zhou Dynasty and the Xuanyu Grotto-Heaven.

The Great Zhou Dynasty is known as the ancient land of the human world. It is likely that the [Mysterious Jade Cave Heaven] was created as a secret realm for refining magic, relying on the Great Zhou's paradise on earth.

The Great Zhou Dynasty, the Mysterious Jade Grotto, and the Dream Ruins Blessed Land are essentially one realm, and cultivation within them all falls under the Three Powers and Five Elements.

No matter how well you navigate these three places, you can't escape the grasp of the Qi cultivators in the [Mysterious Jade Cave Heaven].

To cultivate Qi and enter the Dao, one must break free from constraints and find another path.

"This crappy Zhou Dynasty, you really can't play without cheat codes!"

Lin Mo took out the [Thousand-Faced Human Skin] and put it on, transforming into the appearance of the Crown Prince, and then strode into the new realm gate.

The next second, Lin Mo felt as if he had passed through a water curtain barrier. Before his eyes, there were colorful lights and shadows that kept changing, making it difficult to open his eyes.

When I opened my eyes again, I had been transported to a new world.

The night was as dark as ink, the mountains were shrouded in mist, and the clouds and mist swirled around them, creating a vast expanse of smoke and waves, like a surging river or sea, with a majestic momentum. The clouds and mist flowed and floated among the peaks, sometimes real, sometimes illusory, sometimes visible, like a fairyland.

Outside the mountains, there is a small peak called Jingmiao Peak. Its summit was flattened by Daxiu's magic, turning it into a wide open plain. On it, a grand hall stands majestically.

At this moment, Lin Mo was in the square in front of the main hall.

Around him, a thousand disciples were meditating cross-legged.

Memories of transitioning to a new identity flooded back.

"This is the Star Luo Continent, and I'm currently in the Creation Sect of the Demonic Path, where I've become a promising disciple?"

"This time they're reopening as cultivation disciples, but why the prefix? What's this 'Elite Disciple' thing?"

As Lin Mo delved deeper into his memories, his heart sank.

In my memory, the Star Luo Continent, beyond the immortal mountains, was a mortal world in chaos and turmoil.

The mundane world is filled with impure energy, which blocks the spiritual apertures of the human body, preventing mortals from communicating with the heavens and absorbing vital energy into their bodies. For mortals to embark on the path to immortality is as difficult as ascending to heaven.

Cultivation sects have always prioritized aptitude when selecting disciples, only recruiting prodigies who possess spiritual apertures and are born with the ability to draw spiritual energy into their bodies.

He was single-mindedly focused on cultivating immortality and signed up for the sect's recruitment conference held once every three years, but unfortunately, he failed the talent test in the first round.

Seeing that the path to immortality was slim and there was no way to ascend to heaven, fortunately, the Creation Sect was compassionate and did not care whether one had spiritual apertures or not. It only valued one's character and conduct. Even ordinary people without apertures could enter the sect to cultivate and seek a glimmer of hope for immortality.

At first glance, it seems that even mortals have a faint hope of seeking immortality and attaining the Great Dao.

Actually it is not.

Every three years, tens of thousands of nominal disciples are sent to the Creation Sect, but the number of formal disciples has not increased. On the contrary, the nominal disciples who are sent to the mountain are often seen only going up the mountain, and none of them ever return home in glory or descend the mountain safely.

After entering the path, I truly experienced the cruelty of cultivating immortality.

Without a spiritual aperture, one must purchase the Creation Pearl and, with the aid of the magic treasure's power, cultivate the Essence Seed Technique and gather spiritual energy to refine the method.

By absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth into the body and refining it into spiritual power, and accumulating spiritual power, one can eventually open up the sea of ​​suffering, cultivate magical power, and thus change one's physique and acquire the aptitude for cultivating immortality.

This cultivation process is called the Dharma Spring Realm by the Creation Sect.

There are countless cultivation techniques for gathering spiritual essence and refining techniques. Registered disciples can take any of them from the Scripture Pavilion in the Green Seedling Hall and practice them at their own discretion.

However, those who can absorb spiritual energy into their bodies are less than one in a thousand.

Most cultivators either fail to absorb spiritual energy into their bodies, or their spiritual power becomes unstable on the day they successfully absorb spiritual energy, causing them to die on the spot.

Just hearing about it sends chills down one's spine, let alone witnessing firsthand the horrific scene of one's companion suffering a backlash from their own technique.

"Holy crap! This is practically human experimentation!"

The terrifying image of his companions turned into dried-up corpses flashed through Lin Mo's mind, and he shuddered.

"It seems like the new world isn't very friendly either."

However, upon further reflection, Lin Mo felt that not all of them were necrosis.

At least in this world, cultivation of immortality doesn't emphasize spiritual roots, but rather spiritual apertures.

The fundamental requirements have changed, which shows that he has truly broken free from the shackles of the Xuan Yu Cave Heaven.

This method of gathering and refining spiritual energy is very similar to the method of tempering the spiritual body in the Xuan Yu Cave.

The difference is that the Xuanyu Cave directly absorbs the spiritual energy of spiritual objects, while here it draws on the spiritual energy of heaven and earth through the Creation Pearl.

The models are different, but the essence is still the same.

"If they're essentially the same, then it's easy to handle."

A hint of confidence flashed in Lin Mo's eyes.

Having already formed his own spiritual body and cultivated magical power, what would be an insurmountable task for others was merely a formality for him.

Lin Mo began to read the "Formless Overlord Body Technique" he had mastered.

Suddenly.

The light in the square dimmed, and everyone subconsciously looked up at the sky.

The moon, which was originally a bright full moon, is now missing a corner. Darkness is encroaching and the shadow is growing larger.

"When the toad swallows the moon, the yin and yang of heaven and earth are out of balance, and the spiritual energy is in chaos. At this time, it is extremely easy to successfully absorb spiritual energy into one's body. Fellow disciples, I wish you good luck!"

On the outer corridor of the second floor of Qingmiao Hall, Yan Xiaoling, a formal disciple, leaned against the railing. She was dressed in a light purple gauze, which partially concealed her fragrant shoulders, making her look more alluring and adding to her mystery.

A purple strapless top gently accentuated her full curves, resting slightly against the railing. Her fair, snow-white skin was partially hidden by the fabric, revealing an alluring silhouette that seemed impossible to conceal.

Her delicate eyebrows were slightly relaxed, her alluring eyes sparkling with languid nonchalance; her full, rosy lips gently bit the jade cup as she slowly sipped the fine wine, her posture both languid and seductive.

A mountain breeze swept by, causing the high-slit skirt to flutter gracefully, revealing glimpses of her long, straight, and radiant legs. Her skin was as white as jade, crystal clear, captivating the male disciples below, who held their breath, their hearts pounding with excitement.

"Gurgle!"

Lin Mo could clearly hear the sound of his disciples swallowing.

Seeing the eager, lustful gazes of the crowd downstairs, Yan Xiaoling was not annoyed at all. Instead, she smiled sweetly, her delicate shoulders trembling slightly. Her light purple gauze dress, which was already partially concealing her figure, slipped down, making her appear even more charming.

Lin Mo dared not look any longer and focused his attention back on the cultivation technique, "The Formless Overlord Body Technique".

According to my memory, this is a cultivation method recommended by Senior Brother Wang Lu of Danxia Peak. It involves gathering spiritual energy into the body and cultivating spiritual breath, while also greatly strengthening the bones and expanding the meridians, which will be of great benefit to future cultivation through Qi absorption.

My strong and healthy body is thanks to this book, "The Formless Overlord Body Technique".

"My physical body was cultivated in another world, yet this cheat system is attributing the credit to this broken cultivation technique."

Lin Mo thought to himself, but he could understand it.

The new identity you're simulating must be believable; otherwise, if you're exceptionally talented from the start and happen to be a disciple of the elite, it will only increase people's suspicion.

However, he also knew that he had already reached the limit of this technique and it was impossible for him to actually cultivate magical power.

Do I need to go to the Sutra Repository to exchange for a new Elite Seed Cultivation Method?

"Haha! I've succeeded, Daoist Master!"

Suddenly, a joyful shout interrupted Lin Mo's thoughts.

A handsome disciple located southeast of Lin Mo held the Creation Pearl in his palm. Suddenly, the pearl shone brightly and slowly flew over his head, hovering about a foot above him.

Strands of light were drawn from the moonlight in the sky and incorporated into the pearl.

The Taoist raised his head, his gaze burning as he stared at the Creation Pearl that was radiating brilliant light. He grinned happily and said, "Thank you, Senior Sister Yan, for bestowing upon me the Immortal Seed and helping me cultivate the Azure Wood Flowing Light Technique. I will repay this great kindness in the future."

Yan Xiaoling, leaning on the railing on the second floor, giggled charmingly: "Why wait until tomorrow? Junior Brother Liu Yang, just report it tonight. I'm getting all hot from waiting."

The fairy maiden cast a seductive glance, and all the disciples felt their bones melt, looking at Liu Yang with envy and jealousy.

"Senior sister, wait for me! I will break through now and go to Wushan with you. Let's cultivate the path to immortality together." Liu Yang was overjoyed. He opened his mouth and, like a whale swallowing water, frantically absorbed the spiritual energy of the spirit pearl.

The next moment, his body seemed to be coated with a layer of cool silver light, his blue Taoist robe slowly weathered away and disappeared, and his skin glowed with a shimmering spiritual light, crystal clear, like beautiful glass and jade, radiant and exquisite.

The disciples around him all cast envious glances at him.

Gathering spiritual energy and refining techniques, transforming tendons and marrow, reshaping one's aptitude for immortality—it's all real!

Seeing Liu Yang attain enlightenment and embark on the path to immortality, everyone's confidence soared.

Lin Mo's heart also became incredibly hot, pounding wildly.

however.

The next moment, Liu Yang's body also vanished into nothingness.

A short while later, a living person vanished into thin air.

A seedling took root in the ground, grew wildly in the wind, and in an instant grew into a towering tree, blossoming and bearing fruit, producing huge, colorful fruits.

This fruit is as big as a peach, and its shape is also very strange, like a human smiling face.

A graceful figure leaped from the railing, her movements as swift as a fleeting shadow, and in an instant landed on the treetop.

The high slit of the skirt fluttered in the wind, making her jade-like legs appear smooth and straight, appearing and disappearing in the breeze.

Yan Xiaoling picked a smiling fruit, took a small, delighted bite, and exclaimed, "Excellent! Abundant spiritual energy, truly a blessing. This smiling fruit is perfect for refining anti-aging pills."

This series of actions left all the registered disciples dumbfounded.

Yan Xiaoling chuckled charmingly and said, "Fellow disciples, please don't misunderstand. Our Creation Sect values ​​the cultivation of outstanding talents the most. This Junior Brother Liu Yang's aptitude is not good, and he has no hope of achieving the Great Dao. However, the 'Azure Wood Flowing Light Technique' he cultivates has great potential."

"Although it has transformed into plants, it has not lost its intelligence. Plants have a long lifespan and living for several hundred years is not a problem. If it has the opportunity to absorb the essence of the sun and moon in the future, it can also transform into a demon and rejoin my Creation Sect to cultivate immortality and seek the Dao."

"With a naturally gifted spiritual body, one can directly enter the Qi Refining Realm. For Junior Brother Liu Yang, this is a great fortune, and we can celebrate it."

Lin Mo: "..."

Watching Yan Xiaoling wave her hand, sending a whole tree of smiling fruits flying into the Qiankun bag at her waist, Lin Mo felt a chill run through his body. Just to refine the medicinal ingredient for the Youth Preservation Pill, she used a human as the medicine.

They even went so far as to say that they had been granted a great destiny, their demonic bodies were being reshaped, and the path to the Great Dao was within reach.

As expected of the Creation Sect, it truly lives up to its name.

Lin Mo closed his eyes, refusing to look at the beautiful but venomous fairy maidens. He exhaled a deep breath, remembering that he had a cheat code. When he opened his eyes again, he had regained his composure.

Recalling Senior Brother Wang Lu's kind and friendly smile, Lin Mo felt a chill run down his spine.

This "Formless Overlord Body Technique" is definitely a trap.

The sect's elite cultivation techniques, which my senior brothers enthusiastically recommended, must absolutely not be practiced!

Lin Mo immediately got up and went to the Qingmiao Hall's scripture pavilion to change his cultivation method.

……

When Lin Mo arrived outside the Qingmiao Hall's Sutra Repository, a person was waiting at the entrance of the main hall.

The gatekeeper was dressed in a gray robe, with a slender figure and an elegant and refined face. He had a slight smile on his lips, but there was a lingering sinister look in his eyes.

The serene moonlight spilled down, making that smile appear even more chilling, sending shivers down one's spine.

Lin Mo was immediately startled; this person was none other than Senior Brother Wang Lu from Danxia Peak.

"Greetings, Senior Brother." Lin Mo quickly bowed.

"Junior Brother Chen truly lives up to his reputation as a promising talent of the sect."

Wang Lu's eyes flashed, a glint of light shooting out from his eyes. He looked Lin Mo up and down, then smiled and cupped his hands in congratulations: "Congratulations, Junior Brother! Your blood and qi are full of vitality. You are only one step away from the marrow cleansing of the Yi Jing and the cultivation of spiritual energy. Once you reshape your immortal roots and bones, longevity is within reach."

Lin Mo was quick-witted, but on his face he looked extremely surprised: "Senior Brother Wang, are you serious? I thought I had encountered a problem in my cultivation and was just thinking of coming to the Scripture Pavilion to exchange for a cultivation technique."

"Junior brother, don't make a mistake," Wang Lu advised kindly. "Changing your cultivation method is easy, but it's difficult to absorb spiritual energy back into your body."

"Junior brother, you should persevere and continue to cultivate the 'Formless Overlord Body Technique,' this seedling cultivation method is most suitable for you."

"Lin Mo has learned a lot. I will go back and cultivate the Formless Overlord Body Technique properly." Lin Mo looked bewitched and his confidence was greatly increased after being completely brainwashed. He walked back to the main hall square with weak and powerless legs.

Wang Lu watched Lin Mo leave with satisfaction, a smile playing on his lips, and nodded in approval.

"Senior Brother Wang."

A melodious and gentle greeting drifted into my ears, so pleasant and soothing that it could make my ears pregnant.

Wang Lu suppressed his smile and turned to look.

Under the dim light in front of the pavilion stood a stunningly beautiful woman dressed in palace attire.

Her collar was slightly open, revealing her snow-white shoulders and a graceful curve beneath her collarbone; her long skirt trailed on the ground, and when she leaned forward slightly, the hem of her skirt swayed gently, revealing glimpses of her jade-like legs, her elegant figure captivating and mesmerizing.

At her slender waist, a jade pendant indicating her status as a true disciple hung from her belt.

Name on the sign: Sun Zhiyan.

"Greetings, Junior Sister Sun." Wang Lu greeted her.

Sun Zhiyan swayed her slender waist as she walked gracefully towards him, her clear, bright eyes glancing at Lin Mo's departing figure as she asked, "Senior Brother Wang, is this the pawn you've chosen for your younger sister?"

Wang Lu revealed a hint of smugness: "What do you think, Junior Sister Sun?"

Sun Zhiyan's eyes flickered, and she nodded slightly: "His physical foundation is solid, let's see how he fares. If his comprehension is poor, he will ultimately be a useless child."

Wang Lu said confidently, "Don't worry, he will definitely succeed. To prevent him from changing cultivation methods in the pavilion and delaying your cultivation, I specially arranged for Zhang Qiushan to set up a trap. Don't worry, I have made all the arrangements. You can just pick the fruits of your labor."

Sun Zhiyan nodded, her eyes full of anticipation: "I hope he won't disappoint me."
