Chapter 410: Reflection Wall, Old Friends of Mountains and Rivers, Flying Flowers and Shattered Jade, Divine Ability is Not as Good a

Original mountain.

Reception hall.

"Distinguished guests, please take your seats." Lin Bufan walked slowly and calmly, flicked his sleeves, and sat down slowly.

Zhu Xuanji, Shen Lingshu, Ning Jiufan, Ning Zhuo, and Lin Shanshan sat down one after another.

Lin Bufan raised his hand slowly, signaling the attendants of the Myriad Medicine Sect to serve spirit tea and pastries.

Ning Jiufan stroked his beard and smiled, taking the lead: "Tea and pastries are actually not important. Sect Master Lin, please tell us about the Linlang Reflection Wall in the Myriad Demon Cave."

As soon as these words came out, everyone's attention was attracted.

Ning Zhuo also laughed: "So that's it, the treasure in the Myriad Demon Cave is the Linlang Reflection Wall? Please forgive the junior for being ignorant, I have never heard of any Linlang Reflection Wall."

He and Ning Jiufan sang in harmony, the grandfather and grandson cooperated tacitly, just like a joint attack from left and right, besieging Lin Bufan in the main seat.

This made Zhu Xuanji look sideways and Shen Lingshu raise his eyebrows.

After Ning Zhuo appeared, he sent a sound transmission to Zhu Xuanji, telling the latter how he discovered the treasure of the Myriad Demon Cave. The original intention was to treat Yuan Lao's illness and plot the ten-thousand-year fire essence in Fire Persimmon Mountain, but an accident happened. Yuan Lao and Ning Jiufan were both restrained by Lin Bufan and reduced to captives. Please help, Zhu Xuanji!

Shen Lingshu secretly pondered: "This Ning Zhuo is really good at planning! This time he specially invited Zhu Xuanji, relying on the majesty of our country's royal family and the fame of the Divine Catcher to check and balance Lin Bufan."

"Zhu Xuanji has been tricked! But he has to be tricked."

"Let's see what this mysterious Linlang Reflection Wall is."

Zhu Xuanji sighed endlessly.

He secretly said: "This Ning Jiufan has quite a lot of courage, entering the game with his body, a moment ago he was a captive, and at this moment he is light and breezy."

"The northern style is truly worthy of praise."

Lin Bufan's mood was heavy.

He knew the situation at the moment!

He seems to be in the main seat, having operated here for over a hundred years, and is a local snake, but in terms of the situation, he is the weakest.

The combat power of the Ning family grandfather and grandson, Zhu Xuanji, and Shen Lingshu was enough to make Lin Bufan fear. Not to mention the huge forces they represented.

"Zhu Xuanji and Shen Lingshu came together, I'm afraid there are strong people from the royal family hidden in the dark."

The enemy is many and I am few, and the defeat is set.

When Lin Bufan welcomed Zhu Xuanji and Shen Lingshu into Myriad Medicine Valley, he already understood this.

What he has to do now is how to stand firm in the defeat and maintain the interests of himself and the Myriad Medicine Sect!

Therefore, facing the tacit "attack" of the Ning family grandfather and grandson, Lin Bufan did not directly tell the truth about what the Linlang Reflection Wall was.

But he also knew that he could not not explain this matter.

▲cO

So, he pointed to the tea water that had been served and placed in front of everyone: "Back then, I was just a Jin Dan, my cultivation talent was insufficient, and it was difficult to cross the barrier and advance to Nascent Soul."

"In depression, I chose to travel in all directions, looking for opportunities."

"Heaven favored me, allowing me to accidentally enter the array in the Myriad Demon Cave and bump into Zhang Huaixu."

Zhu Xuanji frowned: "Grass Saint Zhang Huaixu?"

Lin Bufan nodded.

Zhang Huaixu is a historical celebrity, born in the period after the Blood Slaughter Dynasty and before the Night Rain Dynasty.

He practiced Confucianism in his early years, and his calligraphy was upright and solid. After being demoted as an official, he planted grass and trees, recuperated, and entrusted his feelings.

Over time, he realized the Dao from grass and trees, took heaven and earth as his teacher, and integrated nature into his temperament and cultivation. He studied calligraphy and created a wild cursive script, called "Grass and Wood True Words," every stroke and every stroke was natural, as if born from nature. The words written were either as fast as a storm or as soft as light clouds, all hiding the Dao rhyme of heaven and earth.

Later generations respected him as the Grass Saint!

History books clearly record that the Grass Saint had already passed away. Lin Bufan bumped into him in the Myriad Demon Cave, obviously this Grass Saint is not that Grass Saint, and it has something to do with the Linlang Reflection Wall.

Sure enough, Lin Bufan said the next moment: "What I encountered was of course not the Grass Saint himself, but the clues of the Reflection Wall he discovered here, and the fate he had, leaving his own image on the wall. Everyone can also understand it as a Dharma body."

"Although I didn't have the talent for cultivation, the Grass Saint Dharma body also gave me guidance and taught me part of the legacy."

"I obtained this legacy, understood part of the Grass and Wood True Words, succeeded in cultivating spirit grass, and used this to break the pill and form the infant, advancing to a Nascent Soul cultivator."

Next, it was the content of the information that Ning Zhuo, Zhu Xuanji, and others could inquire about.

Lin Bufan relied on his Nascent Soul cultivation to jump to the leader of the Myriad Medicine Sect. He carried out drastic reforms, used various means to eliminate dissidents, cleared corruption, solidified the foundation for the Myriad Medicine Sect, and removed the moths.

One of his most famous means was to bypass the old rules and contracts of the past, and directly move the entire sect to the original site, so that many old contracts, even if they remained, lost almost all benefits and were reduced to empty papers.

Lin Bufan said: "I didn't hesitate to pay a heavy price to move the entire sect to Myriad Medicine Valley. On the surface, it was because the spirit spring here is abundant, suitable for cultivating various medicinal herbs, and fully exerting the Grass Saint legacy I obtained."

"In fact, I wanted to continue looking for opportunities in the Myriad Demon Cave."

"In the following time, I went down into the cave many times, but was blocked by the array. I was defeated repeatedly, but no matter how many attempts failed, it could not shake my will."

"Finally, one day, Grass Saint Zhang Huaixu appeared again. He told me that the spirit wall is of great importance. Even if it is ownerless, the waiting owner should be a pillar of the human race, a genius among geniuses, and it is impossible to become the private property of a mortal cultivator like me, telling me to give up my extravagance."

"I was depressed for many days because of this."

"One day, I felt something, and created this spirit tea. Please taste it, everyone."

Everyone in the hall was caught off guard.

They had been listening to Lin Bufan talk about hidden past events, but they didn't expect him to suddenly change the subject and turn to spirit tea.

But everyone had just listened attentively, with all their heart, and at this moment they still had inertia, and they couldn't help but cast their eyes on the cup by their side.

The cup is simple, like red pottery, with many pits on the surface, giving people a feeling of crude production.

In the cup, the tea leaves are orange-red like the sunset in autumn, and the leaves have mountain and river-like textures faintly visible.

Shen Lingshu became interested, took the cup first, and took a sip.

He tasted it and praised: "Good tea."

Ning Zhuo also entered the mouth.

At the first taste, it was slightly astringent, with a faint woody fragrance, as if the cold air of the forest when first entering the mountain.

As the tea soup slid into the mouth, tasting it carefully, the tea taste gradually deepened, producing a hint of sweetness, with endless aftertaste.

After drinking, there was a warm feeling in the throat, as if seeing thousands of miles of mountains and rivers, standing quietly in the years. There were also old friends whispering in the ears, making people unable to help but sink into it, inevitably giving birth to a feeling of disappointment.

After drinking, Lin Bufan said at the right time: "This tea was created by me. I named it 'Mountains and Rivers Old Friends'. The tea tree is rooted in the most barren soil, and needs to be irrigated with spirit liquid of essence of thousands of medicinal herbs every day to grow and produce tea leaves."

"I miss the predecessors, and also take this as my ambition, and strive again."

"On one hand, I specifically sought many orphans and children, measured their talent, and accepted them as apprentices. On the other hand, I ordered the original mountain god to infiltrate Myriad Medicine Valley and other three peaks for long-term planning. Finally, I implemented new policies, attracted cultivators to stay on Xiao Zheng Peak, and encouraged them to fight constantly, using this means to strive for the goodwill of the Reflection Wall."

"The Linlang Reflection Wall was originally the palace wall of Jingyu Immortal Concubine. Jingyu Immortal Concubine learned from heaven and man, and with the help of the Martial Emperor's treasury, studied and practiced the techniques collected from all over the world at that time. Over time, the wall became spiritual and had wonderful power."

"It can reflect all kinds of characters in the world and save specific images. Everyone can understand it as a special Dharma body."

"The Grass Saint Zhang Huaixu I encountered before is one of them, specially left by the Grass Saint himself at that time to feed the legacy of future generations."

The hall was silent.

On one hand, everyone was rapidly accepting the impact of this hidden information. On the other hand, everyone also felt emotional.

Lin Bufan encountered a blow, but did not give up, but took another path, trying other various methods.

He operated here for over a hundred years, this is a hundred-year plan, firm and unmoving, hidden and not released, waiting for the opportunity.

The spirit tea "Mountains and Rivers Old Friends" he created, isn't it him stating his ambition. He wants to imitate figures like Grass Saint Zhang Huaixu, his ambition is long-lasting, and the mountains and rivers do not move!

Lin Shanshan's eyes were red, and she was the most moved. Only until this moment did she understand her father's painstaking efforts, planning the layout for a hundred years, how difficult this is.

Ning Zhuo secretly called it amazing.

Clearly Lin Bufan was in a passive situation, plotted by him, suppressed by the strong reinforcements he brought, Zhu Xuanji, but at this moment, Lin Bufan's reception was truly amazing.

He accepted the embarrassment of the Ning family grandfather and grandson, on the surface, he was telling his past, stating the secrets of the Linlang Reflection Wall, but in fact, he was using this to state his ambition, the hardship he had experienced, and how much effort he had put into this opportunity!

This made people like Ning Zhuo, after hearing it, after tasting the tea, have to sigh at Lin Bufan's difficulty, have a lot of understanding for him, and the hostility in his heart was reduced a lot.

Lin Bufan continued: "Extreme talent is extremely rare, and I have searched for many years without success."

"I have many apprentices, wanting to win by quantity."

"As a result, until now, only one person has been seen by the images of several ancient sages in the Reflection Wall, and has been taught and guided many times."

"This is my eldest apprentice Linghu Jiu."

"I am gratified in my heart, but I also know that my beloved apprentice is lazy by nature, honest and straightforward, especially after drinking, he often expresses his thoughts and ignores etiquette."

"It is precisely 'Drunken Moon Seeking Immortality' that makes him, and 'Drunken Moon Seeking Immortality' that ruins him. Linghu Jiu has such talent, and his nature is like this, so I can only check for leaks and fill the gaps."

"Therefore, I hid the truth from him, secretly designed a wine, named it Melancholy Nether Brew, fooled him, and let him mistakenly think that this was the combined effect of wine and talent, communicating with the underworld, making him obtain the legacy of predecessors to preach and resolve doubts."

"In fact, as long as it is within the scope of Myriad Medicine Valley, even if you don't go deep into the underground cave, as long as you are seen by the image of a deceased person in the Reflection Wall, the cultivator can obtain the legacy."

Ning Zhuo nodded slightly.

When he saw the Five Elements God Lord again under the Spirit-Hidden Willow, he felt quite strange.

At this moment, hearing Lin Bufan's words, it can be considered verified with before.

Lin Bufan's words should be true.

Ning Zhuo tends to believe it.

This is not because he believes in Lin Bufan's character, but because he believes in Zhu Xuanji more. As a Divine Catcher, Zhu Xuanji's eyes flashed with golden light, and he had the ability to distinguish lies. Back in Fire Persimmon Immortal City, he had used this means many times.

Lin Bufan cast his eyes on Ning Zhuo, his smile slightly bitter: "I thought everything was very safe."

"I didn't expect that Young Master Ning Zhuo met my beloved apprentice for the first time, and they talked happily, taking out the Melancholy Nether Brew and giving it to Ning Zhuo to drink."

"Ordinary wine tasting is fine, but Young Master Ning Zhuo also won the favor of the Five Elements God Lord Dharma body and obtained the legacy."

"It's fine to obtain the legacy by drinking in the cave. But Young Master Ning Zhuo, after entering the cave dwelling of Xiao Zheng Peak, obtained the God Lord legacy again."

"If it were other cultivators, obtaining such a gift would already be happy. But Young Master Ning Zhuo is meticulous in thinking, extremely stable in temperament, and once he discovered a flaw, he grasped it tightly, and his actions were as swift as thunder, taking my eldest apprentice directly to find the array and discovering the mountain secret path leading to the original mountain."

Speaking of this, Lin Bufan sighed, his expression desolate.

Ning Zhuo felt bad, and opened his mouth to speak.

As a result, Lin Bufan said again: "Everyone has drunk tea, why not taste this pastry again."

"This pastry is not my creation, but my daughter Shanshan, and my eldest apprentice Jiu'er jointly created, named Flying Flowers and Shattered Jade."

At this time, Lin Bufan had firmly controlled the initiative of the conversation, not giving Ning Zhuo any room to play.

Ning Zhuo chose to endure, following Lin Bufan's will, and took the pastry.

The surface of the pastry is light gold, with mottled cracks. The surface is dotted with a small amount of white sesame and almond fragments, visually like flying flowers scattered on jade, classical and elegant.

Chewing in his mouth, Ning Zhuo discovered: the inside of the pastry is a soft and waxy pastry body, mixed with unevenly distributed raisins, orange peel, grapefruit peel, and almond fragments.

Ning Zhuo ate three in a row and found that the taste of each was different.

This is mainly because the ingredients in the pastry are not evenly distributed, causing him to have new expectations every time he eats one, and to be curious about the next one—what will the taste be?

The sweet and sour of raisins? Or the slightly sour and bitter taste of orange peel and grapefruit peel? Sometimes it is the crispness of almond fragments. The taste of every bite is different, like variables in the layout, making it difficult to predict.

The layering of the pastry body becomes more obvious after multiple chews, gradually turning from soft to a delicate stickiness, and the sudden sour and sweet of raisins or orange peel brings unexpected surprises.

Ning Zhuo realized something and opened his mouth to praise Lin Shanshan's creation.

Lin Shanshan humbly said that this was just a play when she was a child, and she was perfunctory about the homework assigned by her father, and she was impatient after making the jade pastry body, so she sought the help of her eldest apprentice.

As a result, Linghu Jiu was lazy by nature, and when making spirit cakes, he was greedy for wine, couldn't help but drink a lot, leading to uneven distribution of ingredients.

But it was a mistake, which contributed to the uniqueness of this Flying Flowers and Shattered Jade.

Zhu Xuanji, Shen Lingshu, and others ate the spirit cake, and all had feelings.

The next moment, Lin Bufan's words verified their insights. Only then did the Sect Master of the Myriad Medicine Sect speak slowly: "Flying Flowers and Shattered Jade is a surprise brought to me, the elder, by the younger generation."

"It is also telling me that children and grandchildren have their own blessings and opportunities. As an elder, if I only arrange carefully according to my own wishes, perhaps it is a kind of stupidity, and I should not be too demanding."

"Alas... human hearts will change."

"Once, I accepted many apprentices and taught them to practice, in order to plot the Linlang Reflection Wall."

"But now, I want these younger generations to grow up more steadily."

"For example, Young Master Ning Zhuo came to the Myriad Medicine Sect this time, just like this Flying Flowers and Shattered Jade, bringing a big surprise to my sect!"

"Your interaction and encounters with my daughter Shanshan, and my eldest apprentice Jiu'er, are like these ingredients combined to form a spirit cake with a unique and novel flavor."

"Alas, I am old, I only hope that you will have good fate and good results in the future!"

Lin Bufan spoke earnestly, looking like a kind elder in the family worrying about the younger generation.

Ning Zhuo sighed in his heart: "High, truly too high!"

"Learned, learned a lot."

Lin Bufan's verbal mediation allowed him to advance in defeat.

The atmosphere in the reception hall eased greatly, Zhu Xuanji and Shen Lingshu were pressing hard, with the meaning of questioning. But at this moment, they both had a lot of good feelings for Lin Bufan, and had more understanding for the latter.

Lin Bufan used tea and pastries to cleverly state his philosophy, making others agree, and while retaining his face and the majesty of the Sect Master, with the help of the relationship between Ning Zhuo, Lin Shanshan, and Linghu Jiu, he narrowed the distance between him and the Ning family, and turned enemies into friends to the greatest extent!

Worthy of being Lin Bufan, worthy of being a real power figure who has operated the entire sect for over a hundred years.

Under such a leader, can the Myriad Medicine Sect not be prosperous, can it not be prosperous?

Ning Zhuo shamefully discovered that compared to Lin Bufan's social skills, his frequent use of the Human Life Hanging Thread was a kind of regression, a kind of lack of progress, a kind of laziness.

"Sect Master Lin Bufan, a hero!"

"I want to take him as an example and study hard!!"

"If you always use the Human Life Hanging Thread divine ability to assist, how can you improve in this regard?"

"The Human Life Hanging Thread is powerful, but it is limited by cultivation, and cannot be planted on Nascent Soul, and even planting it on Linghu Jiu will be detected."

"But such communication skills are like spring breeze and rain entering the night, moistening things silently."

"Wonderful, indescribably wonderful."

Immediately, Ning Zhuo decided to rely less on divine abilities in the future and strengthen the excavation of his own potential.

Using divine abilities is not difficult, what is difficult is not using divine abilities, and still being handy.

Such realm and ability, Ning Zhuo saw it on Lin Bufan today.

"It is precisely that techniques stop at cultivation, but wisdom can be infinite!"
