After a while, Liu Ming appeared in the hall on the first floor of the Sutra Pavilion.
"It turns out to be Brother Liu! It's been a long time. Brother has come to the Sutra Pavilion to look at the ancient books again. "The chubby Deacon Lu saw Liu Ming enter the door and immediately greeted him enthusiastically.
Liu Ming nodded slightly. Since he came back from the Elysium Meeting, every time he came to the Sutra Pavilion, the smile on Deacon Lu's face got bigger and bigger. He was also more enthusiastic to him.
After Liu Ming casually responded with a few words, he walked to the second floor.
Liu Ming went straight to the fourth floor of the Sutra Pavilion. He saw that the huge room seemed to be empty. There were a lot of wooden shelves scattered around. Compared to the lower floors, it was more messy. It was covered with a thick layer of dust.
He had been here several times before. Most of the books here were unpopular martial arts with harsh requirements. There were also some ancient books about cultivation obstacles left by the predecessors of the Taiqing Gate. However, most of the books that were transferred here were those that no one cared about.
His situation was relatively special. He could only find a solution from these unpopular ancient books.
Liu Ming stayed here for three days.
In these three days, he read no less than five or six hundred Jade Slips. He also found some temporary solutions to deal with the absorption of spiritual power by the cage.
He first found a strange martial art that was allegedly passed down by ancient cultivators in a remote corner that no one cared about. It was called Blood Spirit Method.
This method was somewhat similar to the body refining method, but it was quite different from the current body refining method. After practicing this method, it could greatly increase the cultivator's own blood.
For most cultivators, the pure increase of blood was useful for practicing some blood path secret techniques. Naturally, it was not as practical as other ordinary body refining methods that could enhance the physical strength.
But for Liu Ming, when the mysterious bubble did not absorb enough spiritual power, it might be able to save his life.
However, this Blood Spirit Method required a lot of time to practice, and it would only be helpful to him if it was practiced to the Great Accomplishment Realm.
Liu Ming estimated that it would take at least twenty to thirty years to master this technique. He was pressed for time, so he could only eliminate this method.
In addition, he also saw a record in an ancient book. In the Middle Sky Continent, there was a great sect famous for making talismans. Mysterious Talisman Sect had a kind of talisman passed down from ancient times, Spirit Fusion Talisman.
This talisman required the complete soul essence of a Jin Dan stage demon beast to be sealed inside. Once a cultivator below the Jin Dan stage used this talisman, they could extract the demon beast's soul essence and fuse it with their own body. It was said that within seven days, one's cultivation could be forcibly raised to the same level as the demon beast. Even if a cultivator above the Jin Dan stage used this talisman, their magic power would be doubled, and their strength would greatly increase.
Of course, doing so would also have very serious side effects, causing great damage to the meridians of the human body.
Not only would it cause the cultivator's cultivation to drop by at least one realm after the Harmonious Spirit Realm, it would also greatly increase the difficulty of advancing in the future.
This method of killing the goose that laid the golden eggs was naturally not considered by Liu Ming. Moreover, this Spirit Fusion Talisman was a secret talisman of Mysterious Talisman Sect. It was not something that could be obtained easily.
Some other methods were generally the same. Either distant water couldn't quench the immediate thirst, or it didn't cure the root cause. It was not a fundamental solution.
"Forget it, it seems that I can't take any shortcuts. I can only follow Luo Hu's words and cultivate honestly." Liu Ming put down a Jade Slips with a faint blue glow in his hand, and the last trace of luck in his heart was shattered.
Immediately, he began to read some ancient books related to Pseudo Pellet State, then he left the Scriptures Pavilion with a frown.
But on the way back to his cave house, Liu Ming thought of something. After returning to Fallen Serene Peak, he didn't return directly to his cave house, but flew directly to the peak.
After a while, in front of the main hall of Fallen Serene Peak, the golden light faded, revealing Liu Ming's figure.
"Senior Fellow Apprentice Liu is here!" As soon as the gatekeeper disciple saw Liu Ming's figure, he hurriedly greeted him and bowed respectfully.
All the disciples on Fallen Serene Peak knew that Liu Ming was now the most popular disciple on Fallen Serene Peak. He won the Tianmen Meeting in one fell swoop. Not only was he valued by Peak Master Yin Jiuling, but even Peak Master Daoist Tian Ge praised him.
No matter what the reason was, he was the target that ordinary disciples looked up to.
"I wonder if Master is in the hall?" Liu Ming asked faintly.
"Senior Fellow Apprentice Liu came at the right time. Peak Master Yin is in the hall at the moment. Senior Fellow Apprentice Liu, please wait a moment. I will inform you now." The gatekeeper disciple hurriedly replied, then he turned and walked into the hall.
"No need to inform, just come in." Yin Jiuling's voice suddenly came from the hall.
Hearing this, Liu Ming tidied up his clothes and walked in calmly.
The gatekeeper disciple paused and looked at Liu Ming's back enviously, then he walked to the side and continued to guard the door.
In the spacious and empty hall, Yin Jiuling was sitting on a chair, looking over with a smile on his face. He seemed to be in a good mood.
"Disciple Liu Ming pays his respects to Master." Liu Ming walked forward and gave a deep bow as a greeting.
"No need to be so polite." Yin Jiuling stroked his beard and smiled. After that, he looked at Liu Ming up and down, and the smile on his face was even wider.
"After the Tianmen Meeting, I heard that you have been cultivating behind closed doors recently. Now it seems that your spiritual power is really thicker and purer. I'm very pleased. It seems that it won't be long before you can try to break through to the Pseudo Pellet State. "
Liu Ming smiled bitterly in his heart when he heard this. Can I not cultivate hard? The mysterious bubble chased after him like a ghost. Since he stepped into the cultivation world, he had never relaxed for a moment.
He thought so in his heart, but he said humbly,
"Master is overpraising me, but I came here this time for the matter of the Pseudo Pellet State. I'm here to ask Master."
Liu Ming also didn't beat around the bush and directly stated his intention of coming.
"Break through to the Pseudo Pellet State? Your cultivation has already reached this level? "Yin Jiuling's half-dry face was surprised at first, then he asked with joy.
Although he felt that this disciple's aura was much thicker than before, Liu Ming had just advanced to the Crystallization Period later stage. If he really wanted to break through to the Pseudo Pellet State soon, he would really be a monster.
"Reporting to Master, disciple's cultivation is still a little worse, but it's not far away. I also got a lot of treasures in the Tianmen Meeting this time, so I have plenty of spirit stones, so I want to know something about breaking through to the Pseudo Pellet State in advance so that I can make sufficient preparations." Liu Ming asked respectfully.
"En, planning for a rainy day, it's good that you can think like this! However, the Pseudo Pellet State is not the same as the previous advancement, so I can only give you some advice. "Yin Jiuling nodded as he realized something.
"Thank you, Master." Liu Ming was overjoyed, and he hurriedly bowed to thank him.
"Entering the Pseudo Pellet State can be said to be half a step into the realm of Jin Dan. The spiritual power of the whole body will initially condense into a ball. To reach this step, not only do you need a very strong accumulation of spiritual power, the most difficult thing is to pass the inner demon tribulation." Yin Jiuling looked a little erratic as if he was recalling the past.
"Inner demon tribulation?"
Liu Ming listened to Yin Jiuling's words very carefully. When he heard the words "inner demon tribulation", he murmured.
In the ancient books in the Sutra Pavilion, he saw some information related to the inner demon tribulation, which was why he felt so troubled and specially came to find his Master.
"That's right, demons are born from the heart. No matter how high a person's cultivation is, there will always be inner demons in their heart. If you can't pass the inner demon tribulation, you won't be able to completely shatter the crystal and form a core. Not only will you not be able to advance to the Pseudo Pellet State, your cultivation may even drop by a level. However, this tribulation also varies from person to person. A few people will pass it very easily, but for most people, it is a gap that they can never cross in their lifetime! "
Liu Ming was startled when he heard this.
It was obvious that he was not one of those few people. Perhaps in this world, only those eminent monks of Buddhism could truly see through the affairs of the world and have no distractions in their hearts. Only then could there be no inner demons.
At this point, Yin Jiuling's expression was extremely solemn. After a pause, he continued to speak.
"Liu Ming, your Senior Sister Xiaowu has yet to return after entering the Evil Ghost Realm, but according to the previous news, she has already advanced to the Pseudo Pellet State, and she is still staying in the Evil Ghost Realm to continue to hone, trying to find a chance to break through to the Jin Dan Stage. Now outside, you are the most important disciple of my Fallen Serene Peak. When you advance to the Pseudo Pellet State in the future, I will naturally apply for a few secret treasures and elixirs from the Sect to help you, but it will not be very useful for the inner demon tribulation. "
"Thank you, Master, but no matter how difficult the inner demon tribulation is, disciple must break through to the Pseudo Pellet State." Liu Ming frowned slightly. It seems that advancing to the Pseudo Pellet State is more difficult than expected, but he still stood up straight and said with a trace of determination in his eyes.
Yin Jiuling saw the change in Liu Ming's expression, and there was a hint of appreciation in his eyes. After thinking about it again and again, he sighed and said again,
"It's great that you have such faith. However, I have a way here that might be able to help you."
"Please enlighten me, Master." Liu Ming's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he immediately cupped his fist and said.
"Among the 8 major families, the Ouyang Family has a rare treasure called the Exquisite Wall. This treasure can calm people's heart and clear their desires. It is very beneficial for resisting the inner demon. If you can get the help of this treasure, you have great hope to form the Pseudo Pellet State. "Yin Jiuling said slowly.
"Since this treasure belongs to the Ouyang Family, and it has such a magical effect, how can an outsider borrow it?" Liu Ming was first delighted, then he said with some doubts.
"Hehe, this Exquisite Wall is specially for the core disciples of the Ouyang Family to use when they advance. However, I have a good relationship with an elder of the Ouyang Family. In the future, when you advance to the Pseudo Pellet State, take my token and maybe you can borrow the Exquisite Wall." Yin Jiuling said with a smile.
"Thank you, Master!" Liu Ming was overjoyed when he heard this, and he solemnly bowed.
As long as he could pass through the inner demon tribulation, he was confident that he could easily break through to the Pseudo Pellet State with the 153 Fa Li Crystals and the repeatedly purified Fa Li contained.
Then, the two casually chatted for a while, and Liu Ming stood up and left.
Yin Jiuling sat on the chair, and his expression changed for a while. He let out a long sigh.
"You made an agreement with Ouyang Ying with 3 evil spirit tokens in exchange for the right to use the Exquisite Wall 3 times. You used it once yourself, and Xiaowu used it again when she advanced to the Pseudo Pellet State. I thought you would leave this last opportunity to your descendants." An old man in a gray robe suddenly walked in from the side door of the hall and said.
It was Elder Tian of the Fallen Serene Peak.
