Chapter 100: Three Thousand Great Daos

Hearing these two sentences, Sun Simiao knew the identity of the white-clothed youth in front of him.

He looked at the white-clothed youth with complex and expectant eyes, and bowed as a junior: "Miaoying greets the True Monarch!"

That's right, Sun Simiao knew the inside story, and was the only one in this world besides the grandmother who had seen Xiang Yunye display his means.

All of this had to start from Xiang Yunye's first return.

At that time, Xiang Yunye had just gained power, and in his excitement, he couldn't help but show off to the grandmother he was closest to, using basic magic to cure the hidden ailments in her body.

And Sun Simiao had always been on good terms with the Yun Mansion, and often entered and exited the backyard of the Yun Mansion to help the grandmother regulate her body.

It could be said that no one knew the grandmother's physical condition better than Sun Simiao.

Based on this reason, Sun Simiao soon discovered the clues.

At that time, he was extremely surprised, thinking it was some extraordinary sect means displayed by Xiang Yunye.

Plus he and Xiang Yunye were already old friends, and they had discussed medical problems before, so he went directly to the door and expressed his desire to see this kind of means.

Xiang Yunye respected Sun Simiao extremely.

This old Daoist had traveled across Guanzhong for decades, saving lives and helping the wounded, saving countless lives, and his medical skills were exquisite, and his morality was high, which could be called the living saint of this era.

Out of respect for this later-generation Medicine King, Xiang Yunye hesitated for a long time and finally decided to show his cards to him.

Although Sun Simiao was known for his medical Dao in later generations, his decades or even centuries of cultivation career were by no means fake.

Such an old Daoist who had practiced medicine for half his life and cultivated for half his life was naturally incomparably shocked when he saw the true law.

But perhaps it was too shocking, so much so that Sun Simiao lost his composure, inner demons were born, and he fell into a struggle similar to Zhuge Qing next door about whether to ask Xiang Yunye for the true law.

Fortunately, Sun Simiao was not Zhuge Qing after all.

His wisdom was enough to allow him to face his inner demons calmly.

In just three days, Sun Simiao walked out of this state of losing his composure, continued to study medical skills, and maintained a normal attitude when seeing Xiang Yunye, seeming to be no different from before.

But it was this normal performance that made Xiang Yunye even more worried.

This time Lin Yu came, in addition to really wanting to see Sun Simiao, it was also at Xiang Yunye's invitation to see his state.

Seeing Sun Simiao bowing to him as a junior, Lin Yu couldn't help but frown, stepped aside to avoid it, and shook his head: "Daoist friend is polite, Lin is indeed longing for Daoist friend, not empty words. You and I can interact as peers, no need for such courtesy."

Sun Simiao also shook his head: "As the saying goes, the one who reaches the Dao first is the leader. Since the True Monarch has already attained the Dao, you are an Immortal of my Daoist sect. This matter has nothing to do with age, it just comes from the admiration for Immortals in the disciple's heart for many years!"

"Nothing to do with age?"

Lin Yu laughed: "Daoist friend thinks, Lin's respect for Daoist friend is just because of age?"

After speaking, he shook his head himself and said with a smile: "Daoist friend has practiced medicine all his life and saved countless lives, which can be called immeasurable merit."

"What Lin avoids is by no means a hundred-year-old Daoist, but a medical saint who wrote books and benefited the millennium in later generations!"

Sun Simiao couldn't have not understood this truth.

Because of this, he didn't bring up this topic, naturally there was a reason.

Upon hearing this, Sun Simiao not only didn't get the joy of recognition, but showed a bitter smile that was expected.

"Sure enough, even if it is seen by the True Monarch's Dharma eye, is it just the disciple's achievement in medicine?"

"..."

Lin Yu raised his eyebrows, looking at Sun Simiao thoughtfully, seeming to vaguely understand something.

After pondering for a moment, Lin Yu turned to look at Xiang Yunye: "Junior brother, I and Sun Daoist friend hit it off, wanting to walk arm in arm and sit and discuss the Dao. I don't know when I will be able to return. If you have anything to do, you don't have to wait for me here!"

"Yes, Senior Brother!"

Xiang Yunye bowed with a smile.

The next second, Lin Yu waved his hand, summoned clouds, and carried Sun Simiao into the sky.

Not long after, the two arrived at high altitude. Sun Simiao stepped on the soft and solid clouds, looking at the shrinking Yushan, and couldn't help but fall into a daze.

A moment later, he was awakened by the wind blowing on his face.

Looking at the white-clothed youth with a smile and Immortal-like temperament in front of him, feeling the feeling of riding the clouds and roaming the four seas, Sun Simiao couldn't help but grit his teeth and bow respectfully:

"Disciple Miaoying has doubts, please ask the True Monarch to answer!"

"Daoist friend has doubts?" Lin Yu smiled, "I don't think so!"

"How does Lin feel that you have already made a decision!"

Sun Simiao was startled upon hearing this, then looked up, looking at Lin Yu with a complex expression: "Although the disciple is obsessed with medical skills and pities sentient beings, wanting to carry forward the medical Dao with this remnant body, after cultivating for many years, I still can't avoid the heart of seeking the Dao. Therefore, after seeing Xiang Yunye's ability, the disciple did indeed have the thought of begging for the true law..."

Lin Yu smiled: "But you didn't do it in the end."

Sun Simiao sighed: "That's because the disciple understands that human power has its limits, and the Heavenly Dao has its destiny. If the disciple returns to the Dao, I must abandon everything I have now, including the medical Dao that the disciple has devoted his life to."

"For this reason, the disciple went into seclusion for three days, and finally couldn't bear to give up this hard work that has not yet been perfected."

"The so-called decision in the True Monarch's mouth is just the disciple's forced choice. In the depths of the disciple's heart, the attitude toward this matter is far from as firm as it appears on the surface..."

Lin Yu whispered: "So you came to ask me for answers?"

Sun Simiao nodded: "True Monarch's Dharma eye is not wrong!"

Hearing this, Lin Yu couldn't help but laugh.

Sun Simiao was startled, then ashamed, as if he had misunderstood something: "The disciple has lived for a hundred years in vain, still unable to see through the delusions, and can't even do what the sage taught to follow his heart, which really makes the True Monarch laugh!"

"Daoist friend, don't misunderstand!"

Lin Yu's laughter gradually faded, and instead shook his head: "Lin definitely doesn't mean to mock Daoist friend, just feels that Daoist friend's words are quite strange. Daoist friend keeps saying medical Dao, why still struggle with the so-called abandoning medicine to learn the Dao?"

As soon as these words came out, it was like clearing the clouds and seeing the sun, making Sun Simiao suffer a heavy blow, and his heart suddenly opened up.

He stared at Lin Yu in a daze, the two words "Medical Dao" constantly echoing in his mind, seeming to have understood something.

Lin Yu continued with a smile: "As the saying goes, there are three thousand Great Daos, and medical Dao is among them. Daoist friend is looking for something far away, why is this?"

What else could it be? Not knowing the true face of Lushan, only because he is in this mountain!

For medical Dao, Sun Simiao was really too familiar. Precisely because of this, he was clear about the limitations of medical Dao, thinking that this was definitely not the Great Dao, and it was impossible to obtain Immortal-like means like Xiang Yunye.

In fact, if Lin Yu hadn't come, Sun Simiao's idea would have been correct.

But now that Lin Yu had come, even if it was a fake Great Dao, he could forcibly press out a path!

"True transmission is one sentence, false transmission is ten thousand volumes of books."

Lin Yu said leisurely: "Today I pass on the art for a friend, teaching you the 'Internal Elixir Chapter' and 'Medicine King Divine Needle Chapter'. In the future, enter the Dao through medicine, cultivate with restraint, and there may be a day when you succeed and attain the Dao!"

As he spoke, he waved his hand and passed these two cultivation techniques into Sun Simiao's mind.

After Sun Simiao began to digest the memory, Lin Yu pressed his shoulder, planted a Spirit Seed in his body, and then brought him back to the small courtyard on Yushan, placing him in the bedroom.

It wasn't until a quarter of an hour later that Sun Simiao woke up in the bed.

Looking at the familiar bedroom in front of him, he was silent for a long time, finally got up, and bowed respectfully toward the Yun Mansion:

"Disciple Miaoying, thanks the True Monarch!"

On the other side, Xiang Yunye and Lin Yu were walking on the road to the Blue Field Marquis Mansion.

Recalling Sun Simiao's appearance just now, Xiang Yunye couldn't help but chuckle.

"I thought Old Immortal Sun really didn't eat fireworks, it turns out he also has such troubles!"

"You have the nerve to say?" Lin Yu glanced at him: "Just looking at the state of mind, Daoist Sun is much stronger than you guys!"

"Clearly unable to see through the heart, but can be unaffected by desires. This shows that his greed, anger, and ignorance are extremely weak. If he can reach the point of cutting off the three corpses in the future, I guess he can easily break through with a little effort..."

Xiang Yunye asked in surprise: "Do we also have to cut off the three corpses?"

Lin Yu shook his head: "Those with spiritual roots naturally don't have to, but what I passed to Sun Simiao is Spirit Seed and Qi-refining. As for what kind of Immortal cultivation path he can walk in the future, it depends on himself!"

Having said this, Lin Yu paused, glanced at Yushan behind him: "I knew it, this old Daoist still has to kowtow."

But fortunately, the "Medicine King Divine Needle" he passed to Sun Simiao was the inheritance of the Medicine King himself in the Under One Person world.

Worshipping himself in another world, it couldn't be considered a loss.

As for Lin Yu, with his status, even if it was the Jade Emperor, he could bear it!
