"To be a man of Blue Cloud, I have three signs and six orifices …" Lin Yi said word by word in a calm tone.
This was the basic mantra that Meng Jueguang taught them when they first entered the Welcome Pavilion. Every disciple of the Blue Cloud Pavilion had a copy, but most of them just looked at it. Very few of them put in the effort to practice it. After all, it was not a profound cultivation method.
Lin Yi, of course, wasn't going to waste his time on this, but he'd done some research on it before, and he had a photographic memory too, so he was able to memorize it easily.
Initially, Xin Yijie had a disdainful look on his face. However, his expression changed when he heard the original version of the Green Cloud Calming Spell. However, he did not believe it.
Although outsiders usually only knew the name of the Green Cloud Calming Spell, very few of them knew the specific mantra. However, there were always exceptions. There were so many disciples of the Blue Cloud Sect in the north island. It was not strange for someone to accidentally leak the Green Cloud Calming Spell. If someone could pretend to be a senior of the sect just by reciting a few mantra, Xin Yijie would be a fool.
"You don't have to lie to yourself anymore …" Xin Yijie was about to stop Lin Yi, but he was stunned. The Green Cloud Calming Spell that Lin Yi recited seemed to be slightly different from what he knew. Although 99% of it was the same, there were a few minor but crucial changes!
Xin Yijie relied on the Spell of Clear Cloud Heart Calming to reach his current level of strength. He knew everything about the Spell of Clear Cloud Heart Calming. If it was someone else, they might laugh at Lin Yi for being an unprofessional liar who could not even recite the incantation correctly. However, Xin Yijie knew that Lin Yi was reciting the real Spell of Clear Cloud Heart Calming!
"No wonder I felt something was wrong when I was practicing. It turns out that the mantra is wrong. It's obviously smoother after the changes …" Xin Yijie could not help but murmur. Meanwhile, Lin Yi was still reciting. Xin Yijie was shocked again as he listened, "What? There's more? There's a mantra for the Gold Core Realm?! "
The Green Cloud Calming Spell only had 353 words. Theoretically, it could only be used to the Full Completion of Foundation Establishment. In other words, disciples like him who had cultivated to the early stage of the Gold Core Realm had to change to a higher level. However, the length of Lin Yi's recitation was already more than 500 words. The rest was the mantra for the Gold Core Realm!
It wouldn't mean anything if he just memorized the Clear Cloud Heart Calming Mantra word for word, but now, not only did he memorize the original version, he even had the mantra for the golden core stage. This wasn't something that an outsider could do.
There was only one explanation. Lin Yi was indeed a disciple of the Green Cloud Sect in the north island. Moreover, he was much older than Xin Yijie, so he knew the original version of the Green Cloud Calming Spell. As for the ready-made Green Cloud Calming Spell of the Green Cloud Sect in the north island, it was just an incomplete version left behind after the turmoil of the sect.
After Lin Yi had recited more than 800 words of the Green Cloud Calming Spell, Xin Yijie finally did not hesitate anymore. He knelt down on the spot and saluted in fear and trepidation, "So you're really the ancestor of the Green Cloud Sect in the north island. I was blind to have offended you. Please punish me, Grand Uncle Master!"
"It's nothing. Ignorance is not a crime. Get up." Lin Yi waved his hand faintly, but let out a sigh of relief inwardly. It was fortunate that he hadn't gambled wrongly. The Art of Calming Heart that hadn't been of much use before was now of great use. Having a good memory really did have a lot of benefits.
"Yes, thank you, Grand Uncle Master." Xin Yijie immediately got up respectfully. His expression when looking at Lin Yi was no longer as superior as before. Instead, his attitude was extremely humble.
The rules of the three sects in the north island were strict. The person in front of him was a real ancestor senior who had mastered the original version of the Green Cloud Calming Spell. He might even know more mental cultivation methods that had been lost. He was a living treasure to the entire Green Cloud Sect in the north island. Xin Yijie had no choice but to be respectful.
Looking at Xin Yijie's attitude, Lin Yi suddenly felt that his risk this time was too wise. Although failure would definitely cause Xin Yijie's hostility, high risk also meant high reward. Now that he had become Xin Yijie's Grand Uncle Master, the problem between the secular world and the Archaic Alliance would naturally be solved.
Not only that, Xin Yijie's reaction also confirmed all of Lin Yi's previous speculations. At least one thing was confirmed, that the Green Cloud Sect in the north island of the Archaic Alliance and the Blue Cloud Pavilion in the north island of the Heavenly Stage Island were indeed of the same origin. Otherwise, it would be impossible for them to share the Green Cloud Calming Spell, which was an iconic mental cultivation method.
Similarly, the Soaring Sect and the Xuanji Sect in the north island were probably in the same situation. Lin Yi privately speculated that there should be two possibilities. Maybe the people who founded the three sects in the north island of the Archaic Alliance actually came from the three pavilions in the north island of the Heavenly Stage Island. That was why the names and mental cultivation methods of the three sects were exactly the same.
Of course, the reverse was not completely impossible, but judging from the disparity in strength between the two sects, the possibility was really very small. It was impossible to say that a group of people came from the three sects in the north island of the Archaic Alliance, ran to the Heavenly Stage Island, and suddenly increased their strength and brought the three pavilions to greater heights, right?
However, the two together could only be regarded as the same possibility. Lin Yi had another more daring speculation in his mind. Perhaps in the distant Archaic Era, the Heavenly Stage Island and the Archaic Small Underworld were originally the same place. Then one day, due to a sudden change, the place was split into two isolated planes. One of them was called the Heavenly Stage Island, and the other was called the Archaic Small Underworld.
The sects in these two places were of the same origin, and should have been about the same level. However, because the Spiritual Qi in the Archaic Small Underworld was far inferior to that of the Heavenly Stage Island, it gradually declined. Day after day, year after year, it formed the current situation.
Both of these possibilities existed, but Lin Yi was more inclined to the latter because if the ancestors of the Archaic Alliance came from the Heavenly Stage Island, they would inevitably leave behind clear records about the Heavenly Stage Island. Now that the Heavenly Stage Island was considered to be nothing more than a rumor in the Archaic Small Underworld, it could be seen that this possibility was not high.
However, the second possibility was more likely to explain all of this. After the two sects split, they did not know the specific situation of the other side, and they might even think that the other side had already been destroyed. As time passed, naturally no one would mention it, and there would not be any clear records left, which led to the current situation.
