Chapter 1595: Chapter 859: Taking Office as Temple Master, Shishu’s Dharma Transmission (2)
In each Descendant Temple, there is also an Ancestor Preaching Painting hung.
Every Ancestor Preaching Painting nourishes seven “True Spirit” imprints.
Apart from Shishu and Peng Chen, the Bodhi Tree, Ling Mountain, and even the cushion under the Ancestor are imbued with a True Spirit imprint, each responsible for different affairs.
The Servant Boy is in charge of managing all the scripture collections of the Taiqing Sect, and the Spirit Treasure Cave Heaven, also known as the “Sea of Books,” belongs to them.
The Servant Boy looked at Zhao Sheng, who was half a head shorter, nodded slightly, and asked with an old-fashioned tone, “Boy, why have you awakened this Ancestor?”
Zhao Sheng bent his waist and squatted slightly, respectfully saying, “Reporting to the Ancestor, this disciple wishes to make a trip to the Sea of Books and hopes for the Ancestor’s grace.”
The Servant Boy was not surprised at all and asked directly, “Do you understand the rules?”
Upon hearing this, Zhao Sheng immediately took out a Pure Gold Coin from his sleeve and presented it to the other party with both hands.
The Servant Boy took the coin unceremoniously and casually tossed it into his bosom.
Then, while flipping through the book in his hand, he asked carelessly, “The sect’s Sea of Books consists of twenty-four main categories including scriptures, histories, talismans, and Divine Guardians. Which one do you want to visit?”
Zhao Sheng immediately expressed, “This disciple wants to go to the Scripture Department!”
“Heh heh, just as I expected!”
The Servant Boy chuckled, revealing a look as if it was within expectations.
After speaking, he suddenly stopped flipping pages and pointed his finger at a certain page.
At the same moment, the page in the book suddenly radiated light, and infinite brilliance rose from the book, enveloping the entire hall in an instant.
Simultaneously, one book after another emerged from the depths of the light, filling the void in an instant, numbering in the billions.
Zhao Sheng’s eyes flashed slightly, and his Divine Thought divided into thousands, continuously touching the books.
Almost every moment, vast amounts of information flooded into his mind:
“The ‘Taiqing Yuanchen Scripture’ was crafted by the third-generation ancestor Yuan Chenzi, this scripture directly points towards ascension and is one of the twenty-one Immortal Scriptures… Cultivators must possess the Star Dao Body…”
“The ‘Yin Yang Two Forms Technique’ was created five hundred and twenty-seven million years ago by the Supreme Sect Guardian Black Heart Venerable… The highest achiever of this technique was the Integration Realm Ascended Master Dong Hezi two hundred thousand years ago… Cultivators of this technique must possess the Yin Yang Spirit Body…”
The ‘Four Symbols Reincarnation Scripture’… Originates from Great Brightness Peak in the Taichen Spirit Realm, this scripture directly points to ascension, but the Sea of Books only retains its first half, the second half still resides at the summit of the Great Brightness Peak, hoping descendants can complete it…”
The ‘Immovable Immortal Demon Technique’… The foundation cultivation of the first-generation Demon Path giant Immovable Buddha Demon… Requires following the worldly path before entering the Buddhist Sect…”
The ‘Vertical Earth Golden Light Technique’… ‘Longevity Scripture’… ‘Red Dust Immortal Scripture’… ‘Nine Nether Yin Charm Scripture’…
The Taiqing Sect was founded and established long ago, its sect’s heritage incomparably profound. In terms of the richness of its collection of scripture scrolls, it absolutely ranks first in this realm.
The Taiching Spirit Realm is named after “Taiqing,” showing the profound heritage of the Taiqing Sect!
Confronted with the endless Divine Skill Treasure Books, Zhao Sheng resembled a mouse that had fallen into a jar of grain, intoxicated and enamored with the countless cultivation technique books, momentarily forgetting the passage of time.
Until suddenly, a cold snort echoed in his mind, startling him awake. He looked up at the displeased face of the Servant Boy.
“Ancestor, forgive me! This disciple was just—”
Hmph!
With a cold snort, the Servant Boy directly interrupted his explanation and unceremoniously asked, “Which cultivation technique do you want? Just tell this Ancestor directly.”
Hearing this, Zhao Sheng felt a sense of relief and couldn’t help but ponder.
After the recent incident, he understood deeply that the Servant Boy had a fiery temper, and it was not good to delay.
So, after pondering for a while, he said, “Reporting to the Ancestor, this disciple wishes to obtain the ‘Mixed Element Qi Cave True Scripture’.”
The ‘Mixed Element Qi Cave True Scripture’ is one of the twenty-one Sect’s Treasure Scriptures of the Taiqing Sect. This scripture was personally transmitted by the Taiching Ancestor to the Second Ancestor, and it is one of the sect’s three oldest Immortal Scriptures.
The ‘Mixed Element Qi Cave True Scripture’ originates from the ‘Taiqing Great Cave True Scripture’, its creator long lost to history.
Through countless years, at least billions of Taiqing Sect disciples have chosen this scripture as their foundational cultivation technique, ultimately achieving a True Immortal who ascended to Immortal Heaven, seven or eight Tribulation Crossing Venerables, over a hundred Integration Realm Great Powers, and countless Demi Immortals Returning to Void…
Zhao Sheng chose the ‘Mixed Element Qi Cave True Scripture’ not only because it directly points towards ascension, but also because it shares the same path as the ‘Five Directions Five Elders Cave Scripture’. Both scriptures base their teachings on the Five Elements Path, similarly elucidating the cultivation philosophy of mutual generation and restriction of the Five Elements, and the infinite harmony of the Mixed Element.
Over the past ten years of scripture recitation and cultivation, Zhao Sheng had already discerned that the ‘Five Directions Five Elders Cave Scripture’ also seemed to be a cultivation technique deduced from the ‘Taiqing Great Cave True Scripture’.
However, it fell far short of the perfection of the ‘Mixed Element Qi’, as the cultivation insights and experiences accumulated by successive generations of cultivators had already surpassed his imagination.
“Kid, you have a good eye! However, cultivating the ‘Mixed Element Qi’ is best for those with a Five Elements Spiritual Body. You, although possessing a Five Elements Spirit Root, do not have a Five Elements Spiritual Body. If you change to this cultivation, your future progress will surely be extremely difficult… This Ancestor advises you to think thrice before acting.”
As he spoke, the Servant Boy tore a page from the book and casually tossed it over.
Zhao Sheng caught the book page with both hands and, upon glancing at it, was immediately shocked.
He hurriedly asked, “Ancestor, why is this… this book page blank?”
The Servant Boy closed the book, and the endless tomes and scriptures instantly dissipated like a star nebula, finally vanishing into bubbles.
The Servant Boy’s face was expressionless, his tone old and stern, as he scolded, “Kid, how clueless you are! Since ancient times… scriptures should not be lightly transmitted nor easily taken. This principle, how could you not understand?
