Chapter 647: Chapter 324: Choosing a Cave Mansion_2
“Tianyuan Peak was named in honor of a fallen cultivator who had achieved Fusion. His name was Cheng Tianyuan, and he perished while fighting against the Demon race. And those demons didn’t fare well either; they lost two of their own with equivalent cultivation levels.”
“I see,” Lin Yi nodded. Those cultivators who had fallen in the war against the demons could truly be considered heroes of the Human race.
Afterward, he chose a cave mansion located halfway up the mountain. From the images projected by Xu Zhiyuan, one could even see the specific features of the cave mansion; the scenery was exceptionally beautiful.
Once the cave mansion was selected, Xu Zhiyuan handed him a cyan mirror, saying, “This is the Tai Xuan Mirror, an indispensable item for the Dao Palace disciples. Place the Identity Jade on it and channel Spiritual Power into it to activate.”
“Besides checking the daily teaching schedule, you can also post information, like if you want to sell something or need something. Some less important cultivation techniques and books can also be seen on it.”
“Moreover, the Treasure Mirrors can contact each other, so within the Dao Palace territory, there is no need to use a Communication Talisman.”
Lin Yi accepted the Tai Xuan Mirror with a smile on his face, marveling that he had finally encountered a communication device akin to a smartphone in the Spirit Profound Realm. Perhaps, Elder Peng was able to contact Elder Lei Yin so quickly because he used a higher-grade Tai Xuan Mirror.
He expressed his admiration, “I never expected such a convenient item. The Tai Xuan Dao Palace is truly remarkable.”
Xu Zhiyuan waved his hand dismissively, “It’s just a small trick. I have transferred the authority of the cave mansion to you. With the Identity Jade, you can enter. Dao Friend, you should go to the cave mansion and rest for now.”
“Thank you, Lord Xu, I will take my leave now,” said Lin Yi, bowing with his fist clasped in the other hand.
As he was leaving, Xu Zhiyuan suddenly remembered something and added, “By the way, Eastern Daoist Friend, after you look at the teaching schedule on the Treasure Mirror, you can sign up to participate.”
“With your Third-level authority, you can also sign up for teachings from Fusion Elders without any conditions, and you don’t need to go to the Hall of Preaching for verification. I just hope, Dao Friend, that you measure your own strength because troubling some Fusion Elders could lead to complications later on.”
Lin Yi smiled, “No worries, Lord Xu, I have come to the Dao Palace solely for the purpose of learning and cultivation. If the lessons from the Fusion Elders prove too profound, it would be a waste of time to attend. I wouldn’t do such a thing.”
The effect of the learning title was determined by one’s level of concentration. If one were inattentive and unfocused during the class, then even wearing the learning title would not lead to any advancement in cultivation levels.
If the content was too profound and impossible to understand, naturally, one wouldn’t be able to concentrate. Pretending to be serious would also not trigger the effect.
“Then there’s no problem. Take care, Dao Friend,” Xu Zhiyuan nodded slightly, standing to see Lin Yi to the door.
After leaving the Ascension Hall, Lin Yi used Sword Control to head towards Tianyuan Peak. It didn’t seem far on the map, but in reality, it was quite a distance away. free𝑤ebnovel.com
As he flew on his sword, he looked up at the lofty floating mountains in the sky which, according to Xu Zhiyuan, were fortified with powerful Formations to defend the Tai Xuan Dao Palace.
Then, his gaze settled on the main peak, the majestic Tai Xuan Peak, radiating a mysterious aura. From it, he seemed to perceive a hint of the essence of the Dao.
Lin Yi flew by the side; this main peak of the Tai Xuan Dao Palace was off limits to cultivators, who were supposed to take a detour around it.
He soon arrived at Tianyuan Peak. Within the Dao Palace, there were no restrictions on flying with a sword like in the Lower Realm’s Liu Yun Sect, where one had to descend from a Ferry Platform—free flying was allowed.
He flew straight to the mid-mountain and channeled Spiritual Power into the Identity Jade, promptly opening the cave mansion’s Formation and entering it. A rich surge of Spiritual Energy greeted him, providing a burst of comfort.
This Third-level authority cave mansion was far superior to the one he rented in the southern district of Tai Xuan Divine City; whether it was the size of the cave mansion or the abundance of Spiritual Energy, both far surpassed the former.
Lin Yi explored the courtyard and the Cultivation cave mansion embedded in the mountain, using the Eye of Emptiness along the way but not noticing anything unusual.
He made some modifications to the original Formation of the cave mansion, activating its full power, and also set up several Formations inside it.
Afterward, he sat in the courtyard, pondering for a moment, before releasing Zhi Ling. Since ascending to the Spirit Profound Realm, the little guy hadn’t even breathed the air of this world yet.
Although it could cultivate within the Spirit Pet Column with medicinal pills, the space was far too cramped, which was quite suffocating.
This place was the Tai Xuan Dao Palace, protected by formations set by the Dao Palace itself. It was estimated that not even the Primordial Spirit of a Fusion Elder could penetrate the formations to arbitrarily inspect the situation of the Dao Palace Disciples’ Cave Mansions.
More importantly, if Fusion Elders randomly used their Primordial Spirits to check on other disciples’ Cave Mansions, they would undoubtedly be discovered by other elders.
After coming out of the Spirit Pet Column, Zhi Ling turned into a flash of lightning, excitedly running around in the courtyard of the Cave Mansion, displaying its happiness.
Lin Yi watched with a smile on his face; for a Lightning Mink, the greatest instinct was to run, to transform into lightning, to roam freely. In a confined space, unable to run, one could imagine how uncomfortable it was.
After running for a while, Zhi Ling finally calmed down and came into his arms, affectionately rubbing its head against his palm, conveying its joyous emotions.
He stroked Zhi Ling’s small head and spoke, “Zhi Ling, you should also be aware of the situation in the higher realm by now. Our Spirit Beast students from the lower realm will definitely ascend to join the Demon Tribe.”
“They naturally wouldn’t be enemies to the Human race, but they might be forced by the Demon race. We must cultivate diligently to have a chance to rescue them.”
The Spirit Beasts from the Dan God Secret Realm Spirit Beast Dojo, after ascending, wouldn’t become enemies of the Human race. The Monster Beasts living in the Monster Forest would likely join the Demon Tribe’s ranks.
Although the Monster Forest in the lower realm maintained a relatively peaceful relationship with human cultivators, there was still no small amount of hostility between them. Moreover, after ascending to the higher realm, they had no choice.
However, the difficulty of a Monster Beast’s ascension was even greater than that of a human’s, so he wasn’t worried about the Monster Beasts of the Monster Forest, only caring about the Spirit Beasts from the Spirit Beast Dojo.
Zhi Ling nodded vigorously and chirped twice, signaling its determination to cultivate diligently.
Lin Yi nodded and stroked its small head again, “That’s right. Hurry up and cultivate diligently. Besides saving your peers, more importantly, I want to see what you will look like after your transformation, hahaha.”
Zhi Ling chirped energetically, gesturing with its little paws about something.
“Pfft, don’t even think about it. I feel you won’t turn into a mature woman like Yu Huan, but there’s a chance you could become a little girl,” Lin Yi said, trying to contain his amusement. Zhi Ling had grand aspirations, but with its tiny body, it would definitely look like a little girl at the outset of its transformation.
Zhi Ling waved its little paws, protesting earnestly, until it puffed up its mouth, resembling a hamster.
Lin Yi couldn’t help but tap its little head with his finger, “Don’t think about becoming someone else. You’re Zhi Ling, and after your transformation, you’ll still be your unique self.”
Zhi Ling then cheered up and gestured towards the Cultivation cave mansion below, chirping about something.
“You go down to cultivate first; I still have some things to attend to up here,” Lin Yi said, patting its head. He still had to study the Tai Xuan Mirror.
Besides attending daily classes to ‘fleece the sheep,’ he needed to cultivate on his own to better comprehend the Creation Method.
Upon hearing his words, Zhi Ling immediately transformed into a bolt of lightning, heading down to the Cultivation cave mansion to start its cultivation.
Meanwhile, Lin Yi took out the Tai Xuan Mirror from his Storage Ring and retrieved his own Identity Jade. He placed it on the mirror, then channeled Spiritual Power into it. The mirror instantly emitted a bright light, enveloping the Identity Jade, followed by another beam of light emerging and floating in the air.
He tried to connect to it with his Divine Sense, and immediately, some text describing the method of using the Tai Xuan Mirror appeared in his mind.
