276: Chapter 213 Shi Lin Temple 276: Chapter 213 Shi Lin Temple Bai Yiyi looked at Tianlian with a face full of suspicion, “From Shi Lin Temple?
What’s your purpose in looking for us?”
The various rumors about Shi Lin Temple had long been stored in Bai Yiyi’s mory.
So said Shi Lin Temple was full of virtuous and compassionate monks, while others claid it was full of deceitful swindlers who caused people to lose their fortunes.
There were also rumors of rampant depravity under Shi Lin Temple’s watch, making life unbearable for the common folk.
Tianlian seed to know the doubts in Bai Yiyi’s heart and replied with a slight smile, “Ah, the world misunderstands our Shi Lin Temple quite a bit.”
“In fact, our temple has always been working hard for the well-being of the people, unlike Da Guangming Temple, which beguiles the populace for profit.”
“For example, my visit to you all this ti is to warn you to be cautious of the Ei Sect.”
“Ei?” Bai Yiyi asked, “What, do they want to take revenge on us?”
Tianlian explained with a face full of kindness, “Are you aware that the Ei Sect possesses a secret cultivation technique known as the ‘Heaven and Earth Seizing thod,’ a technique that can steal others’ talents and transplant images?”
“To cultivate this technique, one needs to capture the innate gifts of geniuses and graft them onto themselves.”
“Both of you are rare geniuses and will undoubtedly beco targets of the Ei Sect.”
Hearing this, Bai Yiyi was shocked, “A cultivation technique that requires transferring another’s innate gifts to oneself?
Doesn’t that make , with my exceptional talents, a pri target for the Ei Sect?”
Just as Bai Yiyi was sinking into worried thoughts, a sudden realization flashed in her mind, “Wait, this body of mine is a puppet body; surely, they can’t transfer a puppet’s innate gifts.”
Just as Bai Yiyi breathed a sigh of relief, another thought struck her with alarm, “No, that’s not right.
I know this body is a puppet, but the people from the Ei Sect don’t.”
“They would definitely still believe I’m a once-in-a-millennium genius based on my achievents since my debut.”
“So, I would still be a major target for the Ei Sect!”
Bai Yiyi’s mind surged with thoughts, full of ups and downs, as she said to Tianlian Daoist, “Ah, thank you for your warning, Master.”
Tianlian replied, “No need to thank .
Anyone with a conscience would try their best to stop such reprehensible acts by the Ei Sect.”
She then turned to Lin Xing and asked, “I observe that the cultivation technique you practice seems to digest destiny and intercept dragon veins?”
Lin Xing finally looked squarely at Tianlian and said with doubt, “How do you know that?”
Tianlian revealed a mysterious smile, “The ‘Six Secrets Immortal Refining Technique,’ although hidden and barely known in the world, is not completely unknown.”
“Not only do I know of it, but I fear the Ei Sect does as well, for one of the past Ei Sect Leaders had once obtained the ‘Six Secrets Immortal Refining Technique.'”
Lin Xing rembered the ssage in the box that stored the secret manuals; it ntioned that the ‘Six Secrets Immortal Refining Technique’ was found in the tomb of an Ei Sect Leader.
Hearing Tianlian’s words, Lin Xing asked, “Does that an the Ei Sect also has a heritage of this cultivation technique?”
Tianlian shook her head, “That Ei Sect Leader had hidden the technique secretly, without passing it on until his death.”
Lin Xing asked curiously, “Why?”
Tianlian shook her head, “I don’t know why, but if you wish to cultivate this technique through digesting destiny and intercepting dragon veins, I might be able to think of a way to help you.”
Lin Xing asked in confusion, “We don’t know each other, do we?
Why would you want to help ?”
Tianlian sighed, “The world is a difficult place, and to see soone like you with such integrity is truly rare.”
“If the ranks of the strong in the world had more people like you, it would be a blessing for all.”
Lin Xing agreed wholeheartedly, nodding, “Indeed, that’s the truth.”
Tianlian said, “Let’s add each other as friends.
I will notify you as soon as I have news on destiny and dragon veins.”
Lin Xing had been troubled for so ti about finding the destiny and dragon veins needed for his cultivation technique.
Hearing Tianlian’s offer, although still wary of Shi Lin Temple, he thought there was no harm in making a new friend.
And just as Lin Xing and Tianlian had added each other as friends, Jing Shiyu said, “Master, would you add too?”
Jing Shiyu planned to have the authorities check the network traces and transaction information associated with the other party’s account to see what Tianlian was really up to.
Tianlian glanced at Jing Shiyu and replied with a light smile, “Of course.”
Bai Yiyi also chid in, “Master, Master, add as a friend too.”
Watching Tianlian’s retreating figure, Lin Xing still felt puzzled and said to Master Bai, “Tianlian from Shi Lin Temple seems to know quite a bit, don’t you think?
Do you believe what she said about the Ei Sect?”
Bai Yiyi shook her head and said, “You’re asking about the ‘Heaven and Earth Seizing thod’?
How would I know?
The thods of cultivating such secret techniques, as well as their effects, are all hidden by the various sects.
They would never be revealed.”
“However, I have heard that masters from the Ei Sect are jealous and there have been many instances of them stifling geniuses.”
She pointed to her head and said, “In the mories of the Taiqing Sect, there is also an experience of going to the Ei Sect to collect cultivation techniques.”
“Oh?” Lin Xing asked, “What was the outco?”
Bai Yiyi continued, “According to Taiqing, the Ei Sect does not like disciples with too high aptitude, nor those with too low aptitude.
They have always preferred to recruit disciples with diocre talent.”
“The masters of the Taiqing Sect all have exceptional talent since our cultivation techniques are designed for geniuses.”
“Taiqing also tried to cultivate so disciples with average talent to infiltrate the Ei Sect.”
“But they simply couldn’t raise them up to standard, so in the end, they were unsuccessful in acquiring the cultivation techniques of the Ei Sect.”
While Lin Xing and Bai Yiyi were exchanging information, Jing Shiyu, who was nearby, suddenly said, “According to the intelligence Tian Jizi once provided to the authorities, it is suspected that the Three Transmission Masters of Shi Lin Temple possess the ability to read minds.”
“This might be why Shi Lin Temple is aware of many secrets.”
“Even just now, that Tianlian might have read our minds, which is how she knew you needed fate and dragon veins.”
Hearing this, Bai Yiyi was startled and said, “She can read minds?
Then does she know everything I was just thinking about?”
Jing Shiyu shook her head, “We can’t be certain yet.” She looked at her phone, “We need to find a way to investigate.
In modern society, if sothing exists, it leaves a trace, even for a Three Transmission Master.”
After the three of them checked into their room, they saw Jing Shiyu begin to contact the officials to investigate Tianlian’s account.
anwhile, Lin Xing took out a transformable folding door from his suitcase.
Once the folding door was erected, Lin Xing sent a text ssage on his mobile phone.
Shortly after, a celestial gate opened from within the folding door.
As Lin Xing and Bai Yiyi entered, they had already arrived at the fixed gate base of Xia Country in Jiangyang Province within the Mirror World.
Bai Yiyi went to the Martial Arts Training Ground to practice martial arts, while Lin Xing arrived in a newly built laboratory shortly after.
Scenes unfolded behind Lin Xing, and the blinding light of the sword imdiately filled the entire room.
“Let’s begin.”
With Lin Xing’s command, the temperature in the room began to drop rapidly.
Above the scenery behind Lin Xing, a new rune flickered in and out of visibility, gradually condensing.
…
In White Eagle Country, New Ke City.
Atop a skyscraper.
Xia Jianlong swirled his glass of wine, looking down at the brightly lit city below, and lanted, “White Eagle Country is much more accommodating than Xia Country, and it’s better at accepting powerful individuals like us.”
“The world of the future is bound to be a fusion of two realms.”
“If Xia Country continues to be stubborn and only thinks about guarding against us, I’m afraid life will beco increasingly difficult.”
Ma Hong, wearing a human skin mask, sat on a sofa nearby, looking at the news on his phone and said, “Xia Country’s delegation, including Lin Xing and Bai Yiyi, arrived today.”
Xia Jianlong replied unconcernedly, “So what if they have arrived?
Xingxiao has already discussed what needed to be talked about with us, and the decisions have been made.”
“The fusion of the two worlds won’t change the principle that the strong are revered.”
“The nine major sects could summon winds and storms in Great Zhou; in this world, they can just as well stand at the peak.”
Ma Hong continued to stare at the photos of Lin Xing and Bai Yiyi in the news, apparently still begrudging the two for ruining his foundations.
He asked, “So, if you encounter Lin Xing this ti, do you plan to do sothing?”
“Encounter?” Xia Jianlong laughed lightly, “When one’s power and influence are strong enough, many things don’t need to be handled personally.”
“Just watch.
Lin Xing won’t even have the opportunity to enter the eting hall and cross paths with this ti.”
