The white carp, though less than a thousand years old, possessed 1,600 years of cultivation. Besides consuming several highly skilled cultivators, the most important reason was its connection to the divine path.

He stirred up trouble on the shores of Dongting Lake, forcing the people along the shore to worship him and offer sacrifices. Over the years, his power and influence grew rapidly.

The second type is the sacrificial style.

The core idea is to use the spirit to replenish the spirit, using the souls of others as nourishment to replenish one's own body, which can naturally repair the damaged primordial spirit.

Lin Yi could, of course, rule out this one.

The third type is the dual cultivation style.

While both methods involve using one's own spirit to replenish another, the third method is gentler than the second. It doesn't require killing; it only requires others to contribute a portion of their own spiritual power to slowly repair one's own spirit.

However, the drawback of this method is that it is slow to take effect; it is a long and arduous process that can take anywhere from ten days to two weeks to three to five years.

Of the three methods, Lin Yi naturally preferred the third one.

The first method requires people to worship and is both time-consuming and laborious. The second method is straightforward. The third method is the least harmful, although it takes longer, but it can be used in conjunction with the first method.

It's not because I see an opportunity for dual cultivation.

"I have three secret techniques here. Which one do you choose?"

Lin Yi didn't make the decision for Qu Jing; he gently let her choose.

In reality, Qu Jing had no choice.

Besides the third option, which other option could she choose?

Chapter 211 You already have a family?

Some people seem to offer three choices, but in reality, you can only choose one.

Qu Jing didn't actually want to choose any of the three, but looking at Lin Yi's fixed gaze, she knew she had to choose one; otherwise, Lin Yi would choose for her.

But how could she possibly utter those two words? So she could only awkwardly say, "The primordial spirit is incredibly mysterious. Even a first-grade great cultivator would find it difficult to fully comprehend it. Cultivating the primordial spirit is also extremely dangerous. Perhaps..."

"Shouldn't sword cultivators be fearless in the face of danger? Let's go for the third one. Anyway, we're of one mind and kindred spirits, so there shouldn't be any major problems."

"Who shares your feelings!"

Qu Jing quickly denied it, but Lin Yi shamelessly laughed and said, "I just touched the jade pendant you always carry with you. Obviously, you have feelings for me. Otherwise, why would you keep it?"

Qu Jing: "..."

How dare you say that!

She huffed angrily, "I just wanted to return it to you in person, so take it away!"

"Alright, I'll get started right away."

As Lin Yi reached out to take it, Qu Jing slapped his hand in anger.

"If you keep acting like this, I'm going to get angry."

Seeing that Qu Jing was serious, Lin Yi quickly changed his expression and said pitifully, "I know I was wrong, I won't dare to do it again next time, please don't be angry, okay?"

Qu Jing: "..."

If she had known that the respectable young man would turn out like this, she shouldn't have taken him on as a disciple in the first place.

What sins has she committed to deserve being bullied so badly by this rebellious disciple?

Seeing that her expression had eased slightly, Lin Yi quickly pressed on, saying, "Jingjing, let's begin. Your injury can't be delayed any longer."

So this is what you call a nickname?

"Don't call me that?"

"Don't worry about the details, let's get started!"

As he spoke, Lin Yi first left his body, and Qu Jing had no choice but to force herself to leave her body as well.

As soon as Lin Yi saw Qu Jing's spirit, he embraced her in his arms.

The primordial spirit is like water; water at higher levels can flow to water at lower levels. This is a way of sacrificing oneself to help others. Before long, Lin Yi lost a large amount of primordial spirit power.

Knowing that the power of the primordial spirit could be replenished through Daoist rhymes, Lin Yi raised his hand again, and countless Daoist rhymes surged into his body.

Although Qu Jing was in the process of repair, she was not completely unaware of the outside world. When she saw the endless Daoist energy flowing into Lin Yi's body, she was stunned on the spot.

No wonder Lin Yi was being chased and beaten by Bai Li not long ago, but was able to turn the tables and crush him in just a few days. With this kind of cultivation method, it's not surprising at all!

Qu Jing had heard of geniuses, but she had never seen anyone as fierce as Lin Yi.

The sight of the Daoist principles of heaven and earth rushing into Lin Yi's body was enough to shock Qu Jing for a lifetime.

Is he the favored son of Heaven?

Or is it that there really are primordial spirits with an exceptionally high affinity for Daoist principles?

Qu Jing didn't understand, but she was deeply shocked.

Lin Yi's damaged primordial spirit was quickly repaired, and not only that, he also showed a tendency to condense a second flower.

Xiao Se said that one should take a steady and solid approach to breaking through realms and not be impatient for quick results. Therefore, after breaking through to the third rank, she has been honing her skills and has not rushed to break through to the second rank.

Human cultivators have a much shorter lifespan than demons, but humans also have an advantage that demons cannot match: a single moment of enlightenment can surpass a hundred years of arduous cultivation.

The scene of those people attaining enlightenment is probably somewhat similar to Lin Yi's current situation.

Seeing that the flower in his chest was already taking shape, Lin Yi decided to go with the flow and enter the second rank.

He managed to carve a Heavenly Grade talisman into the heart of the flower. With the experience from last time, Lin Yi drew talismans much faster this time.

Even so, by the time he finished his practice, it was already dawn.

Qu Jing's condition has improved a lot. The injury from the split of her primordial spirit has almost healed and has not continued to deteriorate. However, she will need to undergo two or three more treatments to fully recover.

She is now lying in bed sleeping.

The best way to restore your mental well-being is to sleep.

Lin Yi originally wanted to do something secretly while she was asleep, but when he saw that it was already dawn, the time was not suitable.

If I don't go home soon, my wife will start to get suspicious.

But with a beautiful woman in bed, a kiss isn't too much to ask, is it?

Lin Yi took off his mask, smacked his lips, thought for a moment, and then set up a talisman array in the room.

If an enemy were to break in, Qu Jing would be able to react in time, and Lin Yi would be able to arrive in time to provide support.

His current residence is not far from here.

After finishing the arrangements, Lin Yi climbed onto the bed and kissed Qu Jing before jumping out the window and leaving.

As soon as Lin Yi left, Qu Jing opened her eyes, touched her lips with her index finger in embarrassment and annoyance, and then wiped her face.

That rebellious disciple kissed her face all over with saliva!

But looking at the array of runes in the room, Qu Jing felt a warm feeling in her heart.

Lin Yi can be bad at times, but he is a gentleman at heart.

Qu Jing didn't plan to sleep long. She got up, packed up the bedding, and put it into her cloud bag. After thinking for a moment, she left a few copper coins on the bed.

Consider this money as accommodation fees. Although we're a bit poor right now, Qu Jing doesn't take advantage of others.

After tidying up the talisman array and leaving, Qu Jing waited a while before going to find Lin Yi.

She knew that her cultivation level couldn't be of much help to Lin Yi, but it was still somewhat useful.

If she sensed something was wrong, she could run away on her own and wouldn't be a burden to Lin Yi.

Most importantly, she can act as an observer to help Lin Yi find the mole.

After searching, she quickly discovered Lin Yi's whereabouts.

It was an ordinary house, and Lin Yi and several women were sitting together eating breakfast.

Seeing this, Qu Jing felt a little jealous.

She knocked on the door and walked into Lin Yi's courtyard.

"Master!"

Lin Yi seemed pleasantly surprised and said, "It's been a long time, Master. What brings you down the mountain?"

Qu Jing: "..."

You haven't even changed your clothes, and you're telling me it's been a long time?

She felt that Lin Yi was really too arrogant, and was he trying to fool her like a fool?

Or did he already know that she knew his identity, and was therefore deliberately teasing her?

Thinking about this made Qu Jing feel even more ashamed and angry.

That traitor!

Even though she had some suspicions in her heart, Qu Jing still pretended to be calm and said, "I heard you encountered some trouble, so I came down the mountain to see you. I didn't expect that you would have your family with you on your escape. No wonder your whereabouts are being spread everywhere."

This was a clear indication that there was a traitor among the group. Xiao Se's expression immediately changed. She realized that her father might have sabotaged her, which was why the Black Demon was able to find her so easily.

If Black Magic can do it, then others certainly can too.

She didn't care if she herself was in danger, but she didn't want to see Lin Yi and Wang Jinxuan get into trouble.

"Thank you for your concern, Master, but it's alright. The problem is almost resolved. Two senior experts are ready to take us to explore the Demon Emperor's Secret Realm. This matter will soon be settled."

As Lin Yi spoke, he said to Qu Jing, "Master hasn't had breakfast yet, has he? Come sit down and have a bowl of fish noodles!"

The fish is a fresh carp from Dongting Lake.

After returning home, Lin Yi took good care of the fish, cooking it until it was tender with spiritual fire, and then added rice noodles.

The rice noodles are homemade, ground by Lin Yi himself. They are all-natural and free of pesticide residues, but the production cost is a bit high.

But Lin Yi is now considered a wealthy man, so he can still afford rice noodles.

Qu Jing originally wanted to refuse; she came to catch the mole, not to freeload a meal.

But Lin Yi quickly cooked her a bowl, and when he brought it over, the aroma was irresistible. Qu Jing didn't say anything about refusing.

"Disciple, won't you introduce them to your master?"
