Chapter 234 Hidden Heart Situation

Luoxia Peak.

The sunset glow is still beautiful, reflecting on the faces of the cultivators passing by, and everyone has a rosy face.

On the bluestone at the top of the peak, pairs of male and female cultivators lean on each other, admiring the sunset glow in the sky, which is very pleasant.

Lin Mu and Shitou's figures are like rainbows, heading straight for Luoxia Peak.

The two of them are in a hurry, and they did not stop at the top of the peak, but went straight to the Sutra Library.

Although the sunset glow is beautiful, the two of them have no leisure to watch it.

They will leave tomorrow, and the two of them only have one night to copy the jade slips, and time is really tight.

Lin Mu took Shitou and walked into the Sutra Library.

It was getting dark, and there were few disciples in the Sutra Library. Only three or five people wandered among the layers of wooden shelves, picking up a jade slip from time to time to check.

Beside the door of the pavilion, there was nothing, and the place where Yinxin was before was no longer there.

In the middle of the attic, there was a square table, and a young man in white was sitting at the table, wandering in the world.

Lin Mu looked at the young man in white sitting at the table in a daze, and a strange color flashed in his eyes.

Ling Yun!

He was one of the top five outer disciples back then, Luo Yan's apprentice, and was good at refining weapons. After decades, his cultivation has now reached the peak of the middle stage of Ling Ji, and he is only one step away from the late stage of Ling Ji.

When Lin Mu learned to refine the Earth Spirit Hoe, it was Ling Yun who taught him.

Lin Mu walked forward and whispered, "Brother!"

Ling Yun was awakened from his deep thoughts. When he looked up and saw that it was Lin Mu, he stood up and said with a smile, "You are now much stronger than me, so I should call you Brother."

Lin Mu smiled and said, "Elder Luo Yan is half my master, and you are his first disciple. It is well known that I should call you Brother." Ling Yun wanted to refuse, but Lin Mu hurriedly said, "It's just a small matter, Brother, don't be so picky."

Ling Yun smiled bitterly and nodded, "I am too long-winded." Then he asked, "Are you here to copy the jade slips?"

He had already received the master's instructions and knew that Lin Mu would come.

Lin Mu smiled and nodded, "That's right."

Ling Yun smiled and said, "I have prepared blank jade slips for you."

After speaking, he took out a large stack of jade slips from the storage bag and stacked them on the table. Lin Mu took a quick look and knew that there were at least hundreds of them.

Lin Mu and Shitou went forward together to take the jade slips, each of them filled two or three hundred pieces.

While Lin Mu was filling the blank jade slips, he asked Ling Yun, "Senior Yinxin has always been guarding the Sutra Pavilion. Why is it your turn now? Where is Senior Yinxin?"

Ling Yun's face darkened, and then he returned to normal. He glanced at the scattered disciples in the pavilion and forced a smile, "Time is precious. Please copy the jade slips. If I have time, I will let you know."

Lin Mu didn't understand why, so he suppressed his doubts and nodded in agreement.

Ling Yun began to drive away the disciples in the pavilion to facilitate Lin Mu and Shitou's copying.

"It's getting late. We'll stop here today. You guys leave quickly and come back tomorrow."

The disciples in the pavilion who chose the jade slips made their decisions after hearing this. Some put down the jade slips and left directly, while others took the jade slips and came to Ling Yun to pay the spirit stones. In a moment, the disciples in the pavilion left cleanly.

Ling Yun waved his hand casually, and the door of the Sutra Library closed with a bang, and the pavilion suddenly became dark.

Ling Yun cast more than a dozen spells in succession, and the "Glimmer Array" around the walls was immediately activated, and the pavilion was suddenly as bright as day.

Lin Mu and Shitou began to busy themselves with copying the jade slips.

After discussing it, the two decided to start with the mind method.

The mind method is the foundation of cultivating spiritual power. The higher the grade, the faster the cultivation speed.

The "Nine Directions Heart Method" that Lin Mu practiced when he first entered the door was a second-grade heart method, and the effect of cultivation was very poor.

Not only was the circulation of the Zhoutian slow, but each circulation of the Zhoutian did not increase the spiritual power much, which was far from comparable to the "Five Elements Heart Method".

The fifty disciples that Lin Mu accepted were all of ordinary qualifications, and their spiritual roots also had all five elements, and their needs for the heart method were also different.

Lin Mu and Shitou looked at the wooden shelves of mental skills on the first floor for a long time and found that most of them were second-grade mental skills, and occasionally there were one or two third-grade mental skills. The two of them made a quick decision to leave the first floor and go straight to the second floor.

The mental skills on the second floor were indeed much more profound than those on the first floor.

Almost all of them were third-grade mental skills, and even some fourth-grade mental skills could be found occasionally.

For disciples in the Qi Refining Period, third-grade mental skills were enough.

The two classified them according to the five elements and five systems of spiritual power, and copied seven or eight third-grade mental skills for each system, leaving all five systems intact.

After copying the mental skills, the two divided the work again.

Lin Mu copied the magic skills, and Shitou copied the sword skills.

As for magic skills, Lin Mu accepted all of them, and copied all the magic skills he thought were useful, regardless of the grade.

He covered all the five systems of magic skills, from low-level to high-level.

Lin Mu believed that if someone could learn all these techniques and use them freely, it would not be difficult to defeat the sword cultivators.

Obviously, this is impossible.

Learning each technique takes a lot of time, and if you want to reach a profound level, you have to practice thousands of times.

Cultivators, especially low-level cultivators, have limited lifespans and do not have much time to learn techniques.

On the contrary, sword cultivators have a great advantage in this regard.

As long as you choose a sword formula, you can start learning from the beginning. As your cultivation level gradually improves, you will have a deeper understanding of the sword formula, and there is great hope that you will finally comprehend the sword skills.

The powerful attack power of sword cultivators is far superior to that of magic cultivators.

Foundation-building cultivators can sacrifice high-quality magic tools to enhance their strength and fight against spiritual cultivators in the opposite level.

It is difficult for magic cultivators to perform high-level magic in the foundation-building period.

This is also the reason why sword cultivators are becoming more and more popular and magic cultivators are becoming more and more declining.

Magic is better in variety, and sword formula is better in concentration and powerful attack power, each with its own advantages and disadvantages.

In comparison, most people still choose to cultivate swords.

Shitou has been cultivating swords for decades, and the sword formulas he has chosen are all extraordinary, all of which are third-grade sword formulas.

He only copied seven or eight of the five sword formulas in each series, and even so, there are still thirty or forty jade slips.

Lin Mu copied a lot more magic techniques than Shitou Sword Techniques, from low-level to high-level, there are more than 150 jade slips.

In addition, the two also copied some miscellaneous cultivation jade slips.

For example, jade slips for alchemy, jade slips for talisman making, and jade slips for refining tools.

Because the number of physical cultivators is small, the cultivation jade slips are also classified as miscellaneous cultivation. Lin Mu remembered that Shi Jian practiced physical cultivation, so he copied a few of them.

After all, Qianyu Sword Sect is mainly focused on sword cultivation. Although these miscellaneous cultivation categories are involved, the collection is not complete.

Some miscellaneous cultivation jade slips even have missing contents, and no one fills in the missing contents.

Lin Mu and Shitou don't care about these. With the idea that something is better than nothing, they copy all the jade slips they think are useful.

In addition, Lin Mu is also interested in copying some anecdotes and strange stories jade slips, most of which are interesting stories of previous people's travels, or insights.

These jade slips are messy and full of fragments of thinking. They can only be read as entertainment.

If it weren't for some of the wonderful ideas that made Lin Mu applaud, he would not have copied them at all.

At dawn, Lin Mu and Shitou Fang stopped sweating.

After a night of hard work, the two finally copied all the jade slips they needed.

There were mental methods, magic methods, sword techniques, and miscellaneous cultivations, enough for fifty disciples to learn.

There were many contents that Lin Mu was also very interested in, and he planned to study them in his spare time.

The two counted the jade slips they had copied and found that the number was as high as 500!

500 jade slips!

What a crazy night!

Most of the jade slips on the first and second floors of the Sutra Library that had slightly important content were copied by the two.

Except for the top-notch skills on the third floor, the rest of the Qianyu Sword Sect's unique skills were obtained by Lin Mu.

After working hard to copy all night, they relaxed and felt tired.

Copying the jade slips was extremely exhausting. Even though Lin Mu's consciousness was at the peak of the Spiritual Silence Stage, he still felt dizzy.

Shitou was even more exhausted and was already drowsy.

Lin Mu put all the jade slips into his storage bag, and a burst of joy flashed in his tired eyes.

In a blink of an eye, he found that Shitou had fallen beside the wooden frame and was sleeping soundly.

Lin Mu smiled and shook his head. He did not wake Shitou up, but turned around and walked to the first floor.

The first floor of the Sutra Pavilion.

Ling Yun was sitting cross-legged in meditation, working hard.

The sound of Lin Mu's light footsteps downstairs had already awakened him, and he hurriedly woke up from his meditation.

"Have you copied it?" Ling Yun asked with a smile when he saw Lin Mu's happy face.

Lin Mu smiled and nodded: "I'm exhausted. Hundreds of jade slips consume too much spiritual consciousness."

Ling Yun smiled and nodded. He had a deep understanding of this. He was guarding the Sutra Pavilion here, and he copied a lot of jade slips, and he felt dizzy every time.

"Where's Shitou?" Ling Yun smiled when he saw Lin Mu coming down alone.

"He fell asleep." Lin Mu smiled, "After all, his cultivation is still shallow, he can't hold on any longer and fell asleep quickly."

Ling Yun smiled in surprise, "Then let him sleep for a while."

Lin Mu's face became serious, looking at Ling Yun, and solemnly said, "What happened to Senior Yinxin?"

Ling Yun's smile disappeared, and he said with a sad face, "To be honest, Senior Yinxin is already exhausted and will not live long. Although he was in the Jindan stage before, he was beaten back to the Lingji stage by the head of the sect, and his meridians were broken. After so many years, although his injuries have recovered, his cultivation cannot be improved again. Seeing that there is no hope of returning to the Jindan stage, he is depressed and has become ill. Now he is bedridden and waiting to die."

Lin Mu was stunned and felt sad.

Yinxin was very good to him. If Yinxin hadn't reminded him at the beginning, he would have been betrayed by Shi Weihan and died in the hands of the people of Yuling Sect. The Five Elements Heart Sutra given by Yin Xin was also the foundation of his cultivation.

At the beginning, he was only in the Qi Refining Stage, but Yin Xin did not despise him. He compared him with Shi Weihan and asked him to help eliminate Shi Weihan.

All these things made Lin Mu sigh.

But only a few decades had passed, and he had just reached the late stage of foundation building, and there was still a distance from the golden elixir, but Yin Xin could not hold on.

Lin Mu felt sad.

After a while, Lin Mu raised his head, his eyes slightly red, and said: "Where is Senior Yin Xin now? I want to visit him."

Ling Yun wiped the tears from his eyes and said, "The headmaster has arranged for him to recuperate at Wangyun Peak. Although it is called recuperation, no one cares about him. Now the headmaster is powerful, and the master can't do it alone. Although I want to visit him, the master won't let me go, fearing that it will cause the headmaster's jealousy. Although you are in power now, it is better not to go for the sake of safety, so as not to embarrass the master."

Lin Mu's face sank, and he said coldly, "Others are afraid of Shi Weihan, but I am not afraid of him. In this case, I will go alone."

Ling Yun opened his mouth and wanted to persuade him, but looking at Lin Mu's gloomy eyes, he couldn't speak.

"Shitou will rest here. Please take care of him. I will be back soon. I will not cause any trouble." Lin Mu left a word, opened the door of the Sutra Pavilion, and went out.

Ling Yun was left standing there blankly, with his expression changing, guilt, hesitation, struggle, weakness, sigh, flashing one by one.

Tears rolled down his cheeks.
