"By the way, are there any missions recently?" Lin Yi changed the topic.
"Are you short of money?" Old Lin looked at Lin Yi, "I thought you had already adapted to a comfortable life."
"My life now is not as comfortable as it used to be. Compared to the life of an assassin, it's child's play. It's just that my strength has increased, and I don't feel that it's that dangerous as a cultivator anymore." Lin Yi smiled bitterly and said, "Every world has its own rules. If you don't step into it, you'll never understand it."
"Since you want to take on missions, I can help you think about it. Of course, don't take on the missions from before. I'll help you find some high-end missions with high pay," Old Lin agreed.
"Alright, the more the better," Lin Yi replied, "Of course, don't make it too difficult. I don't want to die for money."
"Oh, I'll help you check," Old Lin said nonchalantly.
That night, Lin Yi left Little Feng at Old Lin's place while he rushed to West Star Mountain.
After the second stone door opened, Lin Yi remembered that there was a stone tablet beside the third stone door that was completely different from the first stone door. There was a line of words written in seal script on it: You can open the stone door after mastering the second level of the Art of Dragon Mastery.
In this way, Lin Yi didn't have to abide by the five-year promise on the night of the full moon. As long as he mastered the second level of the Art of Dragon Mastery, he could open the third stone door! Now that Lin Yi had mastered the second level of the Art of Dragon Mastery, he should be able to enter the stone door smoothly.
Lin Yi arrived in front of the Xuanyuan Cave Mansion with ease. Now, Lin Yi had a rough idea of what was going on. The Xuanyuan Cave Mansion didn't exist since ancient times, but was built later. Moreover, according to Jiao Yazi, the five-year promise seemed to be specially prepared for Lin Yi!
Lin Yi's heart was full of suspicions. Ever since Old Lin kicked him off the cliff, he seemed to have walked into a path that someone had planned for him. Every step he took was controlled by that person. Who was the one who had planned all of this?
Of course, that person obviously didn't mean any harm. In fact, he was full of kindness. After all, Lin Yi had all the benefits. Although Lin Yi didn't have a good sect background and didn't have a large amount of treasures for cultivation, it could be said that the jade space and the Xuanyuan Cave Mansion were enough to make up for the difference!
Otherwise, how would Lin Yi be able to step on all the opponents who were stronger than him? This was enough to prove that the things in the Xuanyuan Cave Mansion were very powerful. They weren't any weaker than the top inheritances of the ancient sects. No matter how strong Zhang Naipao was, he was still restrained in the end.
And so, Lin Yi admired the person who built the Xuanyuan Cave Mansion. He didn't know why this person would help him, and what was the relationship between him and him? After building the Xuanyuan Cave Mansion, why didn't he show up?
Old Lin probably knew about all of this, or at least part of it. Otherwise, he wouldn't have kicked Lin Yi down. Now that Old Lin didn't want to say anything, Lin Yi could only guess in his heart.
It wasn't nighttime yet. The last time Lin Yi came here, he had tested it. The stone door couldn't be opened before nighttime, but this time, Lin Yi didn't know if it was possible. The third stone door didn't have a full moon, but the night didn't have to be a full moon. So, Lin Yi went up and tried again.
Unfortunately, the stone door didn't open. It seemed that even if a full moon wasn't needed, a normal night was still needed. Night was a prerequisite for opening the stone door. This was also within Lin Yi's expectations, but Lin Yi couldn't be sure without testing it.
Since it was still early, Lin Yi calmed down and sat cross-legged at the entrance of the cave. He began to condense the forging fire, slowly waiting for the night to fall …
Lin Yi had basically reached a bottleneck on his path of cultivation. The early stage of the Heaven realm had been completely stabilized, and he was just waiting for an opportunity to advance to the peak of the early stage of the Heaven realm. It wasn't easy to break through to the peak of the early stage of the Heaven realm unless Lin Yi had a Qi Gathering Pill or touched the bottleneck in battle.
This was also why many cultivators didn't have the opportunity to break through in battle and could only choose to cultivate in seclusion to find an opportunity.
Of course, there were some cultivators who kept taking Qi Gathering Pills until they reached the peak of the late stage of the Heaven realm. But then they wouldn't have any more pills to take, and they wouldn't be able to cultivate on their own. This was equivalent to losing the opportunity to advance to the Heavenly Way.
Although the chance of advancing to the Heavenly Way sounded very slim, many practitioners still held a glimmer of hope for it. They would not take Qi-gathering Pills if they could. Besides, other than the Heavenly Elixir Sect, which sect would have too many Qi-gathering Pills?
Slowly, the night fell. Lin Yi put away the forging fire in his hand and looked up at the dark blue night sky. The moon wasn't a full moon, but a crescent moon.
Lin Yi stood up and walked towards the direction of the cave. He stopped in front of the stone door in front of the cave and slowly placed his hand on the stone door. He then began to circulate the Art of Dragon Mastery!
With his previous experience, Lin Yi was familiar with the process. The stone door recognized its master and slowly rose, revealing the Xuanyuan Cave Mansion inside.
The scene inside the stone door was almost the same as the last time Lin Yi came. Lin Yi didn't stay for long and went straight to the second stone door at the back of the hall!
The last time Lin Yi opened this stone door, it really wasted a lot of energy. The stone door made the physical strength and vital Qi in his body go through a big cycle. But this time, Lin Yi had experience. He calmly placed his hand on the second stone door and then began to circulate the Art of Dragon Mastery. But this time, what surprised Lin Yi was that the vital Qi in his body wasn't automatically sucked into the stone door to complete a cycle like the last time. Instead, just like the first stone door, Lin Yi circulated the mantra and the stone door slowly opened!
Once the stone door opened, Lin Yi and the space in the jade pendant naturally reestablished a connection. Seeing the scene in front of him, Lin Yi couldn't help but ask, "Jiao Lao, this second stone door is completely different from the last time?"
