"Of course we have to go to the Scripture Pavilion." Hearing this, Xue Shan and Wan Xiao Qian happily agreed.
Liu Ming couldn't refuse either.
Thus, Shi Chuan didn't say anything else and formed a hand seal with one hand. He once again condensed a gray cloud and carried the four of them to another place on the mountain.
After the time it took to finish a cup of tea, the group landed in a remote place. After passing through a stone forest formed by bluestone pillars, a pavilion built on the side of a mountain appeared in front of them. Half of it was exposed outside the mountain, while the other half was directly buried in the mountain rocks.
On top of the pavilion's door, there were three large purple words "Scripture Pavilion" written in a flamboyant style. On the two sides of the door, there were two statues of evil spirits that were two feet tall. They were extremely lifelike and were completely black, as if they were made of iron.
"You must remember, the Scripture Pavilion is an important place in our sect. Other than the small path that we took to get here, there is no other way to get close to this place. Even if you occasionally fly over, you cannot get within five thousand feet of the Scripture Pavilion. Otherwise, you may be treated as an enemy and break the restrictions of the pavilion. Then, you will be killed by the Guardian Puppets. Before this, this kind of thing has happened before. "Shi Chuan said seriously.
"There is such a thing! The Guardian Puppets are these two big fellows? "Wan Xiao Qian was shocked and couldn't help but look at the two fierce statues.
"That's right, it's them. Don't think that they are just inanimate puppets. Once they are activated, they have the strength of a Spirit Master. They are not something that Spirit Apostles like us can fight against. It's just that activating them costs a lot of Spirit Stones. "Shi Chuan explained a bit and brought the three of them into the pavilion.
Liu Ming looked inside and couldn't help but have a trace of surprise.
After entering the door, it was a small room that was only a few dozen feet in length and width. Aside from an empty chair, there was nothing else inside.
Shi Chuan didn't find this strange at all. He flipped his palm and revealed his nameplate. He pointed it at the wall in front of him.
With a "Pu Chi" sound, a white light shot out from the nameplate and disappeared into the wall in a flash.
Then, Shi Chuan brought Liu Ming and the others to wait quietly. They did not show any signs of impatience.
After a while, a white light flashed on the opposite stone wall, and a fat old man wearing a tall hat walked out. He was yawning non-stop, as if he had yet to wake up.
"Disciple Shi Chuan greets Martial Uncle Ruan!" When Shi Chuan saw the fat old man, he immediately went forward and greeted him respectfully.
"Oh, so it's the little fellow from Jiu Ying. Why have you brought your new junior to choose a Qi Method so quickly?" The fat old man casually glanced at the group of people and asked lazily.
"My juniors want to see what techniques are available in the pavilion. Whether or not they want to choose now is up to them." Shi Chuan said without hesitation.
"Alright, according to the rules, new disciples do indeed have a chance to visit the pavilion for free. I will also personally explain the pros and cons of the various basic cultivation techniques to you. However, according to the rules, each person could only bring one person in. Which one of you wants to go in first? "The fat old man said without any hesitation.
"Senior, I will go first." Xue Shan immediately took a step forward and said. His face was full of eagerness and anticipation.
"Hehe, then come with me." The fat old man laughed and shook his sleeve. Immediately, a blinding white light rolled out.
Liu Ming and the others couldn't help but close their eyes. When they opened their eyes again, Xue Shan and the fat old man were nowhere to be seen.
"This is …" Wan Xiao Qian's beautiful face couldn't help but lose color.
"Don't worry, Martial Uncle Ruan only used the power of the pavilion's formation to directly move Junior Xue into the Scripture Pavilion." Shi Chuan didn't find it strange and explained.
Only then did Wan Xiao Qian relax.
Liu Ming furrowed his brows and asked a question.
"Senior Shi, has this Martial Uncle Ruan always been in charge of guarding the Scripture Pavilion? Which faction of Spirit Master is he from?"
"Hehe, I know what Junior is worried about. Don't worry. The Scripture Pavilion has always been guarded by Martial Uncle Ruan. However, his background is a bit special and he doesn't belong to any faction. "Shi Chuan replied with a smile.
"So it's like that." Liu Ming let out a sigh of relief.
Following that, he and Wan Xiao Qian took the opportunity to ask Shi Chuan about the Scripture Pavilion.
This "Senior Shi" also answered each and every question with all his heart.
After the time it took to eat a meal, a white light rolled out from the wall in front of them. Xue Shan followed the fat old man out with a face full of joy.
"Congratulations Junior Xue, looks like you've already picked a suitable Cultivation Method!" Shi Chuan's eyes flashed and he said with a smile.
"Hehe, this is all thanks to Martial Uncle Ruan's guidance." Xue Shan nodded his head and said.
"Who's next?" The fat old man didn't continue the conversation. Instead, his gaze swept over Liu Ming and Wan Xiao Qian.
"Junior Wan, you go first." Seeing this, Liu Ming said politely to the girl beside him.
"Since Senior Bai is giving way, then I won't be polite." Hearing this, Wan Xiao Qian didn't decline and took a step forward.
"Okay."
The fat old man nodded his head and waved his sleeve again. After a white light rolled out, he and Wan Xiao Qian were also teleported away.
"Junior Xue, which Cultivation Method did you choose?" At this time, Shi Chuan turned his head and asked Xue Shan.
"It's the" Earth Spirit Method "that Senior mentioned earlier. Martial Uncle Ruan examined my aptitude and helped me analyze the pros and cons of the other Cultivation Methods. I feel that this Cultivation Method is the most suitable for me." Xue Shan replied honestly.
"Hehe, congratulations, Junior Brother. I also cultivate the "Earth Spirit Method". This method may not be as fast as some other Cultivation Methods in the beginning, but once it is cultivated properly, it will be smooth and there will be very few bottlenecks. It is also one of the Cultivation Methods that our sect cultivates the most. Also, once this method is cultivated to a certain level, you can change to our faction's Yellow Springs Dark Devil Method. "Shi Chuan said with a smile.
"What, Senior Shi also cultivates the" Earth Spirit Method "? That's great! Then if I have anything I don't understand in the future, I hope Senior can give me some pointers. "Xue Shan replied with great joy.
"Of course. If Junior has any questions about the Earth Spirit Method, feel free to ask." Shi Chuan said without hesitation.
When Xue Shan heard this, he happily expressed his thanks.
Liu Ming watched from the side with a smile and didn't say anything.
Wan Xiao Qian didn't enter for long. She only took half the time that Xue Shan took. She appeared in the room with the fat old man in a white light.
Seeing the joy on her face, it was obvious that she didn't return empty-handed.
This time, before Liu Ming opened his mouth to ask anything, the fat old man waved his sleeve at him without saying anything.
Liu Ming only felt a white light flash in front of him and the world spun around him. He stumbled and almost fell to the ground.
Luckily, he reacted quickly. With a shake of his shoulder and a twist of his waist, he stood up straight as if he had no bones in his body.
"Hmm, not bad. Looks like you are quite agile. The two fellows in front of you couldn't even stand after teleporting. "The fat old man's surprised voice sounded in Liu Ming's ears.
Only then did he regain his composure and look around.
He saw that he was in the center of an unfamiliar hall. The fat old man was standing a few feet away from him.
The entire hall was a few acres large and was divided into several areas by five colored walls of light. In each area, there was an independent stone table. On top of the table, there were all sorts of leather scrolls or piles of bamboo slips. They were all covered by different colored lights.
"When I was outside, I practiced a few secret techniques of mortals. That's why my reaction is faster than normal people." Liu Ming finally had the time to give the fat old man a bow and explain.
"You don't need to explain anything to me. I was just asking. Come with me. All of the basic techniques are here. "The fat old man waved his hand and walked towards one of the walls of light.
Liu Ming let out a bitter laugh and could only obediently walk over.
"Peng!"
The fat old man used his nameplate to draw a line in front of him. Then, the wall of light immediately turned into specks of light and disappeared into thin air.
The two of them directly walked in.
Liu Ming's eyes quickly swept over the area. His face couldn't help but reveal a trace of astonishment.
"These are the basic techniques that you can learn for free at this stage! What do you want to ask? "The fat old man glanced at Liu Ming and asked calmly.
"Martial Uncle Ruan, I heard from Brother Shi that there are only thirteen basic techniques in our sect. However, it seems that there are far more than that here." Liu Ming looked at the hundreds of stone tables in front of him and said with a slight twitch of the corner of his eye.
"Our sect naturally only has thirteen techniques. However, our sect has been established for thousands of years. During this time, we have naturally searched for many other basic techniques. So, there is nothing strange about this. However, this old man advises you new disciples to not rashly practice those outer sect techniques. After so many years, our sect has only decided on thirteen basic techniques. There is naturally a reason for this. These outer sect techniques either don't have any follow-up training methods or are extremely difficult to practice. They require specific training conditions. Most of them aren't suitable for our sect's disciples. "The fat old man replied lazily.
"Thank you for your guidance, Martial Uncle. What kind of technique does Martial Uncle think is suitable for this disciple?" After Liu Ming heard this, he suddenly understood. However, after looking at the hundreds of stone tables, he pondered for a moment and asked the fat old man.
"What Spiritual Pulse do you have?" The fat old man asked without hesitation.
"I have Three Spiritual Pulse!" Liu Ming replied respectfully.
"Three Spiritual Pulse! Good! "The fat old man nodded his head and suddenly moved his arm. He waved his hand in the air.
Liu Ming suddenly felt his body tighten. He was bound by some kind of invisible force and couldn't move. Then, with a "whoosh", his entire body was pulled in front of the fat old man.
Liu Ming was startled, but he soon relaxed and didn't struggle.
In the end, he saw the old man mumble an incantation. Then, his palms lit up and turned into a shadow that slapped at Liu Ming's body.
Liu Ming only felt that these slaps didn't have any weight. However, after each hit, there was a warm feeling that drilled into his skin and even into his bones. He couldn't help but be shocked.
