Chapter 342

A vast ocean of ten thousand acres, with vast waves and misty billows.

At this time, standing at the highest point of the sky, looking in all directions.

Seeing this boundless immortal marsh, which seemed to gather all the spiritual beauty and quiet grace of the eight poles, it was truly a unique, magnificent, and grand sight that one would never forget.

Although there were many water mansions, small islands, and floating immortal islands in the Xiao Daze.

Densely packed, like stars in the sky.

But the most eye-catching ones.

were still the nine giant islands that were as bright as stars and unimaginably large.

In each giant island, there were towering mountains rising above the clouds, and endless pavilions and palaces could be seen hidden in the mountains.

The Yuchen Nine Halls.

Nine Mountains and Nine Islands—

The sword light transformed by Chen Hang paused slightly in the air, then chose a direction and headed straight for the giant island in the northwest.

That was the location of the Dao Record Hall among the Nine Halls.

It was not just the Twenty-Five True Dharmas.

All of Yuchen's divine powers, secret techniques, and Daoist classics were also recorded in this hall.

And although his sword escape was incomparably fast.

this Xiaoming Xiao Daze was truly vast and boundless...

After traveling for a while, Chen Hang slightly retracted his sword light and landed in front of a twenty-four-cornered jade building standing on a peak, covered in smoke, mist, and cinnabar cliffs, shining and clean.

In front of the twenty-four-cornered jade building, several streaks of light were already rising and falling, like fire clouds burning the sky and moonlight penetrating the earth.

Clearly, they were Yuchen disciples who had come here to view the scriptures, just like Chen Hang.

"Chen Xiao Shixiong is here? I failed to welcome you from afar, I failed to welcome you from afar!"

A Dao Record Hall officer, who was originally hugging his arms and ordering tasks to several servant Daoists, saw a red rainbow circling in the clouds, moving like flowing fire.

Then, in a flash of sword light.

A purple-robed Daoist appeared in the open space outside the jade building.

Seeing this, the officer stopped his unfinished words, pondered carefully for a long time, and soon matched the face, suddenly realizing.

He waved his hand to dismiss the servant Daoists, walked forward with a slight smile, bowed, and said loudly.

Chen Hang saw that this person's attitude was warm, so he raised his large sleeves, returned the bow, and began to chat with him.

In the conversation, he learned that this person was one of the officers of the Dao Record Hall, called Wu Qiao.

This person had also practiced in the Lower Court, and although he was not lucky enough to win a seat as one of the Ten Great Disciples and enter the Yuchen Upper Sect.

Fortunately, by chance, while traveling, he accidentally discovered the ruins of a demonic expert.

Because of Wu Qiao's cultivation at that time, let alone taking the items in the ruins.

he could not even break the restrictions outside the mansion.

After thinking it over, Wu Qiao decided to hand over the information about the ruins to several masters and supervisors, letting them decide for themselves.

Doing so, although it made Wu Qiao lose a great opportunity, it also earned him the favor of several masters and supervisors.

After he had to leave the Lower Court because his age exceeded the limit.

With much effort, Wu Qiao entered the Dao Record Hall, the most leisurely of the Nine Halls.

Not only was the monthly salary high, but he also became one of the few officers of the Dao Record Hall, with a noble status.

To outsiders who did not know the reason.

it was truly a stroke of great luck, bumping into an immortal fate...

And at this time.

After a conversation.

Wu Qiao also keenly sensed that Chen Hang had come to this twenty-four-cornered jade building today to view the True Dharmas.

A trace of envy flashed in his heart, but he quickly collected his thoughts and personally led the way.

He waved away the restrictions at the hall door and led Chen Hang into the twenty-four-cornered jade building.

And just a few breaths after Chen Hang left.

A clear sword whistle sounded in the clouds, cutting through the blocking clouds and mist, also as fast as lightning and flowing fire, and fell into the open space outside the jade building in an instant.

"Chen Hang... He came here this time, it should be for the Three Scriptures among the Twenty-Five True Dharmas, right?"

As the green light slowly faded and the soaring sharpness was retracted, He Lizi's figure slowly appeared from within.

He looked toward the jade building, his eyes flickered slightly, and he thought to himself.

At this time, a Daoist walked out of the jade building and walked quickly to welcome He Lizi.

But before he could ask.

He Lizi took out a command talisman and handed it over, saying indifferently:

"I have come to take the 'Bai Hu Seven Kills Sword Scripture'; the command talisman is here, you can verify it yourself."

The Daoist who received the guest was shocked, but he did not dare to delay, and hurriedly took the command talisman with both hands.

After verifying it with magic, he carefully took out a golden arrow from his sleeve, whispered a few words, and threw it into the sky, letting it turn a few times in the clouds before it disappeared.

"That 'Bai Hu Seven Kills Sword Scripture' is of great importance, so please wait a moment, Xiao Xiao Shixiong, why not move to the side pavilion to have some tea?"

The Daoist apologized to the indifferent He Lizi and said hurriedly.

"There is no need to trouble with tea."

After He Lizi nodded slightly, he did not say much, but stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the twenty-four-cornered jade building in front of him, examining this beautiful scripture building of the Yuchen Sect.

Not long after, a sharp whistle suddenly sounded in mid-air.

The golden arrow thrown by the Daoist earlier did not know where it started, bringing a stream of rainbow light, like lightning, and threw itself over again.

After taking the golden arrow and seeing the approval attached to the arrow, the Daoist's pupils shrank slightly.

When his gaze fell on He Lizi again, there was a bit more obvious warmth.

"Please! Please!"

The Daoist bowed and smiled all over his face:

"That 'Bai Hu Seven Kills Sword Scripture' is on the ninth floor, so please follow me, Xiao Xiao Shixiong!"

He Lizi nodded, flicked his sleeves, and walked into the twenty-four-cornered jade building with the Daoist, his figure instantly swallowed by the misty light and mist, and he was never seen again.

Strange light and colorful, brilliant and bright.

The moment he entered the twenty-four-cornered jade building, his feet swayed slightly.

When he opened his eyes again.

he was already in an extremely wide and vast cave.

Hanging five-colored lamps, burning nine-light flames.

All kinds of brilliant light decorated this originally empty and lonely place, making it very bright and grand.

And on both sides of the cave, thousands of dense niches had been carefully chiseled out.

In each niche, there was a jade slip, radiating light.

Looking at it, it was like ten thousand stars shining, very dazzling, truly inexhaustible!

"May I ask Officer Wu, are these living beings Book Spirits?"

Chen Hang turned his eyes forward, could not help but raise his eyebrows slightly, and asked Wu Qiao beside him.

In the cave, besides the dense niches and several disciples viewing scriptures, there were also a kind of strange living being.

Their appearance was just a ball of green smoke, but they had faint noses and mouths.

They could easily float in the void, travel through existence and non-existence, and speak human words.

Not far away, a Yuchen disciple wearing a feather crown seemed to have ordered the creature a few words.

Then the creature floated into the air, turned a few times, took out the jade slips from several niches, and handed them over respectfully.

Wu Qiao looked in the direction of Chen Hang's gaze and smiled:

"Chen Xiao Shixiong is wise, these living beings are Book Spirits, specially pointed out by the Elders of our hall, and their intelligence is no different from ordinary people!

Because the Daoist books and classics in this scripture building are as vast as the sea, they are Yuchen's eternal treasures.

If you want to search for them yourself, it is indeed a time-consuming and laborious task.

At such times, you only need to state the book title you want to view, and these Book Spirits will naturally come forward and bring the relevant jade slips to you, which can save a lot of effort."

At this time, Wu Qiao reached out and summoned a Book Spirit, and after ordering it casually.

The Book Spirit floated to a niche, wrapped the jade slip inside, and sent it to the two of them.

"Truly an immortal technique."

Chen Hang smiled and said.

And after that.

According to Wu Qiao's words, Chen Hang also learned.

This twenty-four-cornered jade building was divided into thirteen layers of caves, and the collection of each layer was different.

And the higher you go.

the more precious the collection in the cave!

The classics in the upper caves not only require Daoist merits to be exchanged.

but if the status and position of the person viewing the scriptures are not enough.

even if the Daoist merits are sufficient, they cannot open the restrictions and cannot view them freely.

It was only this first layer of the cave, whose collection was not as precious as the upper layers.

so there were no taboos and one could do as one pleased.

And after talking for a while.

Wu Qiao led the way, and the two walked up step by step.

Until they were about to enter the thirteenth layer.

Wu Qiao suddenly took a step back, stopped, and smiled:

"Since Chen Xiao Shixiong wants to view the True Dharma, please go ahead. As for my status, it is not good to go further. If I am punished, that would be bad."

"Thank you, Officer Wu."

Chen Hang raised his hand in salute, thanked Wu Qiao, and then lifted his robe and walked forward with big strides.

And upon entering the thirteenth layer of the cave.

What appeared before his eyes were no longer the Book Spirits flying everywhere and the dense niches.

He only saw the lake light as clean as plain silk, green smoke and red clouds, filling more than a hundred miles, willow branches swaying, and fish and dragons jumping on the waves.

A beautiful scene that made one's heart and body relax.

Chen Hang took a look and knew that this should be the marvelous use of the inner landscape world.

This twenty-four-cornered jade building looked only ten feet high from the outside, and the area was not vast.

But once inside, it was divided into thirteen layers of caves.

And the vastness of each layer.

was no less than his Changli Island!

Such an immortal technique was indeed mysterious and indescribable.

At this time, he saw a small wooden pavilion in the middle of the lake, supported by a large turtle, and although it was covered by heavy lake smoke, he could vaguely see a low table and a few meditation cushions in the pavilion.

An old man was sitting in it, drinking by himself.

Chen Hang's heart stirred, he urged his sword light, and came to the front of the pavilion.

And the old man sitting cross-legged inside smiled slightly, put down the wine pot casually, pointed his hand at a meditation cushion, and signaled him to enter and talk.

The old man had large ears and a prominent nose, a high forehead and broad eyebrows, wearing crane robes and straw sandals, with a silk belt tied around his waist.

He carried a large yellow gourd on his back, inside which there was a faint sound of wind and thunder, and although it was rustling, it made one's heart tremble.

"Those who come to this thirteenth layer all want to exchange for Yuchen's Twenty-Five True Dharmas."

After Chen Hang bowed and entered, the old man did not rush to speak, but looked him up and down a few times before asking:

"I see your Qi is still only that of a Cave-Mystic cultivator. A Cave-Mystic Alchemist can enter the scripture building of my Dao Record Hall and go straight into this layer.

If I am not mistaken... you should be the leader of this Grand Competition?"

"Senior is truly sharp-eyed."

Chen Hang stood up and smiled, took out the fish-shaped talisman of the Dao Record Hall, and handed it to the old man.

"The Ten Great Disciples of this session are quite interesting..."

The old man took the talisman, looked at it, and injected a ray of spiritual light into it.

Seeing a layer of rippling rosy color slowly emerge on the surface of the talisman, he nodded, put it into his sleeve, and said to Chen Hang:

"Since you are the leader of the Grand Competition, with this identity, you can choose one of the Twenty-Five True Dharmas to practice. I wonder which Dharma you are interested in?"

And without waiting for Chen Hang to speak.

The old man shook his head and smiled:

"I am confused. You have just entered the Upper Sect, so you probably don't know much about Yuchen's Twenty-Five True Dharmas.

Since that is the case, why not look at a brief summary first, and then make a decision later."

After saying this, the old man moved his sleeves, and twenty-five jade slips instantly appeared on the table in front of him.

Chen Hang did not put on airs, bowed to thank him, and then read them one by one.

And when he encountered unclear points, the old man would also give guidance, clarify the pros and cons, and explain the key points to Chen Hang in detail.

Finally.

After he had read all twenty-five jade slips.

Chen Hang had made up his mind, no longer hesitated, and bowed:

"Reporting to Senior, the disciple wants to exchange for the 'Xuanzhong Taiwu Natural Kaiyuan Scripture Record', please grant it, Senior!"

"The 'Xuanzhong Taiwu Natural Kaiyuan Scripture Record' among the Three Scriptures?"

The old man looked at him, nodded slightly, and did not say much.

In fact.

Regarding the choice of this True Dharma, Chen Hang had already made up his mind before coming to the Dao Record Hall.

His current Daoist book, the "Dou Shu Heavenly King God Sect Jade Book," was not the complete version and could only be practiced to the Cave-Mystic Third Layer—the Innate Gold Mercury Realm—and then there was no way to continue.

As for after reaching the Cave-Mystic Third Layer.

How to use secret methods to shatter the Dragon-Tiger furnace under the abdomen and the gold mercury in the furnace, making them mix with the Qi Sea.

How to reconcile the water and fire of the body and spirit to reach the realm of heart and body harmony.

And how to prepare the thirteen great medicines when condensing the elixir.

Making them not damage the form and quality, but become an aid when forming the Jin Dan...

Regarding these.

the "Dou Shu Heavenly King God Sect Jade Book" did not mention them at all.

This was also Jun Yao's intention, wanting him to use Yuchen's secret methods to form Yuchen Sect's High-Grade Jin Dan.

In this way,

Chen Hang could be considered to have completely branded himself with Yuchen and become a true insider of Yuchen!

Since it was like this.

Even if the Taiyi Divine Thunder, Plum Blossom Numerology, and other great divine powers were powerful.

Chen Hang's purpose for this trip was only the Three Scriptures!

But between cultivation Daoist books, there were also differences in attributes.

There were wind, rain, thunder, lightning, poison, sharp blades, stars, sun, moon, Yin, Yang, and the Five Elements.

For a cultivator, changing the Daoist book used for cultivation was not a big deal.

But only if the attributes of the cultivation Daoist book remain the same.

that would be the best.

It would not damage any True Essence!

And Chen Hang's cultivation in this life, whether it was the "God House Pivot Transformation Daoist Lord's 'Taishi Yuanzhen Scripture'" or the "Dou Shu Heavenly King God Sect Jade Book," belonged to the attribute of the boundless, chaotic, and great void.

Not divided into Yin and Yang, not entering the Five Elements.

In this way.

Among the Yuchen Three Scriptures, the only one that matched this attribute was the "Xuanzhong Taiwu Natural Kaiyuan Scripture Record."

And at this time, after hearing Chen Hang's decision;

The old man on the opposite side only extended a finger and touched his forehead from afar.

In an instant.

Chen Hang felt a thunderous shock in his brain, and countless tadpole-like characters gushed out like a spring, shaking his heart and spirit violently.

His vision was also blurred, as if countless chaotic mystic Qi were suddenly floating and sinking, without head or tail, clear and muddy indistinguishable.

In just a blink of an eye, it completely covered all clear scenes, blocking the sun and sky, leaving only a vast and unfathomable void.
