Mind Cultivation Record

Early the next morning, under the leadership of Patriarch Qingqiu, Xiao Mian and his party left Hujiazhai and headed towards Tianxia City.

After entering Tianxia City, Xiao Mian saw Patriarch Qingqiu taking him to Datong Hall. Xiao Mian couldn't help but be suspicious: Could it be that Elder Hou lived in Datong Hall?

But soon, Xiao Mian knew that he was wrong.

Under the leadership of Patriarch Qingqiu, the group walked into Yin Yang Pavilion.

The Yin Yang Pavilion is a place in the Datong Hall that specializes in alchemy.

Although the Yin Yang Pavilion is not as important as the Qiankun Pavilion, there are still monks stationed there on weekdays.

Like the Qiankun Pavilion, the monks from thirteen families take turns to guard it; unlike the Qiankun Pavilion, the ones stationed at the Yin-Yang Pavilion this month are not the Jin family, but the Xie family.

Although Xiao Mian had met Xie Ying, Xie Bao and even Xie Long, it was obviously not their turn to worry about garrisoning the Yin Yang Pavilion.

Therefore, Xiao Mian did not know these Xie family disciples.

But it was obvious that these Xie family disciples had received orders from the senior officials of the Xiangfu Chamber of Commerce, so Qingqiuzi and his group entered the Yin Yang Pavilion without any hindrance.

After entering the Yin Yang Pavilion, there is a long corridor.

At the end of the corridor, there are two more portals - one is as round as the sun, and the other is as waxy and waning as the moon, obviously leading to two different places.

"Senior Qingqiu! Elder Hou is explaining the way of alchemy at the Yin Que. I wonder if you are waiting for a while at the Yang Que, or..."

The disciple of the Xie family who led the crowd had a top-level golden elixir cultivation level, and his attitude was extremely respectful.

Qingqiuzi pondered for a moment and smiled casually.

"Elder Su Wen Hou is a dual practitioner of alchemy and swordsmanship. If I want to listen to Elder Hou's explanation of alchemy on weekdays, I'm afraid I won't be able to get in. Today is the right time for the meeting, how can I miss it? I just don't know if outsiders like me rashly disturb..."

"It doesn't matter! Elder Hou has already given instructions: If all the colleagues from Nanyue Prefecture don't find his sermon boring, they can all enter Yinque on their own. It's just that this junior's duty is to stop here, but I think there should be someone inside Yinque to welcome you. Woolen cloth!"

"Good work!"

Nodding, Qingqiuzi threw a storage bag to the Xie family disciple.

Although Qingqiuzi gives people the impression of being unruly and fearful of chaos in the world, this does not mean that he does not understand the ways of the world.

The Xie family disciple bowed and left with a smile.

After that, Qingqiuzi took the lead and the group entered the so-called Yinque.

Walking into Yinque, Xiao Mian discovered that the interior space was huge.

The entire Yinque is like a giant bell buckled on the ground.

The diameter of the giant bell is a hundred feet, and the top of the giant bell is three hundred feet above the ground!

In the outermost circle, along the wall, there is a row of tall and neat bookcases. The bookcases are hundreds of feet high, and they are densely packed into the entire arc-shaped wall.

A rough estimate suggests that there are hundreds of millions of books in these bookcases.

Even Qingqiu Zi, who has such a profound background, also changed his expression slightly.

Pushing one floor inside, there is a circle of square and elegant rooms.

The square rooms are arranged in a circle in an orderly manner, close to the bookcases, but far away from the center of the Yinque.

I think it was set up there for monks from Tianxia City to browse the collection of books.

Getting closer is a huge pulpit.

In the center of the forum, there is a platform three feet above the ground. This is the center of the Yin Palace and the most eye-catching part of the entire Yin Palace.

At this time, an old man with white beard and white eyebrows was preaching on the platform.

Obviously, this old man is Elder Nahou!

Ten feet away from the platform, with the platform as the center of the circle, there are concentric circles of seats scattered around - the farther away from the circle, the higher the seats.

But even the outermost seats are not higher than the center platform.

This design not only takes into account the people sitting in the back circle to listen to the sermon, but also takes into account the respect for teachers. It is obvious that a lot of painstaking efforts were put into the original design.

With a quick glance, Xiao Mian calculated the number of seats at the venue, which reached an astonishing three thousand--unexpectedly, this place could accommodate a thousand people at the same time!

At the thought of this, Yin Jiansheng, Jing Chu and Kong Yuanren looked at each other.

It should be noted that in Nanyue Prefecture, even in Wanzong City, which has the strongest spiritual atmosphere, where can such a solemn and majestic preaching place be found?

Where can I see a sermon that is packed with people?

Although these three people had understood the weakness of Nanyue Prefecture before, they had always been a little vague. Now that they saw the layout of Yinque, they deeply understood the huge difference between Nanyue Prefecture and Chu County.

Xiao Mian, on the other hand, has long been a veteran, so he is not surprised.

Privately, Xiao Mian even made a malicious guess: The old monkey deliberately chose this place to meet, was he just trying to impress everyone secretly?

If this is the case, he can be regarded as a monkey spirit...

At this moment, a monk came forward as expected. After asking everyone their identities, he took the five people to the seats in the inner circle closest to the central platform.

Yin Jiansheng and the others were impressed by the solemnity of the scene and did not notice anything wrong. Qingqiuzi and Xiao Mian looked at each other and smiled bitterly.

It's just that there are so many people nowadays, it's hard to stand still.

After sitting down, Xiao Mian was so keen that he felt a lot of slightly malicious eyes glancing at him from behind.

Obviously, the seating arrangements for listening to sermons are very particular.

Otherwise, why is it that the inner circle is not full yet, but many monks are sitting further away in the outer circle, without daring to take a step beyond the limit?

But soon, Xiao Mian was too lazy to care about this.

After all, the group is led by Qingqiuzi, so let him worry about these trivial matters...

Xiao Mian's mind was focused on Elder Hou's sermon.

What Elder Hou is talking about is the method of alchemy.

Xiao Mian listened in confusion, but when he saw Qingqiuzi paying close attention, Xiao Mian knew that what Elder Hou was talking about must be a profound way of alchemy.

When he found an opening, Xiao Mian took out a jade slip and wanted to engrave the alchemy path explained by Elder Hou on it. Even if he didn't understand it, it would be a good idea to give it to Ye Qingguo one day.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Mian poured the true essence into the jade slip. Before he started carving, the entire jade slip suddenly burst open and turned into jade scraps.

Although Xiao Mian was unscathed, he was shocked - of course not because of the explosion of the jade slip itself, but because of the reason behind the explosion!

The moment the jade slip exploded, Xiao Mian felt a trace of restraining power.

In other words, the entire Yin Que turned out to be a place where jade slips could not be used!

Sure enough, as soon as the jade slip on Xiao Mian's side burst, there was an uproar on the scene.

Elder Hou on the platform also stopped his sermon at the right time, and stared at Xiao Mian with a pair of eyes that were almost covered by white eyebrows.

Xiao Mian knew it was going to be bad!

It’s okay to make a fool of yourself by yourself. If someone is implicated in Nanyue State...

I am really afraid of what will happen!

Soon, someone stood up from the back row.

"Where did you come from, this rude boy! I don't know that in Yin Yang Pavilion, it is strictly prohibited to use any engraving, duplication, or transfer tools, right?"

Xiao Mian stood up slowly, with a wry smile on his face - we really are enemies on a narrow road!

Turning around, Xiao Mian was already calm.

"It turns out to be Brother Jinweifa Jin! What? But the injury was too serious the previous time, so Brother Jin came to learn alchemy now? It shouldn't be! I only used 50% of my strength!"

But it turns out that the person who made the provocation was Jin Weifa.

"You! Are you Hu Ying? Or Xiao Mian?"

"What about Hu Ying? What about Xiao Mian? You can't beat me!"

"You! You've gone too far!"

"Brother Jin, why are you messing around with such country bumpkins?" A charming woman suddenly stood up next to Jin Weifa. The woman looked Xiao Mian up and down, and sneered mockingly: "Humph! According to the regulations of Yin Yang Pavilion, unauthorized permission is allowed. Anyone who uses the transfer device to steal any written or spoken images inside the Yin Yang Pavilion will be fined 100,000 yuan for the first offense! If he does it again, he will never be allowed to enter the Yin Yang Pavilion! "Brother Jin, is this right?"

"The eighth sister is right! I don't care if you are Hu Ying or Xiao Mian, just hand over the one hundred thousand souls! What? You Nanyue Prefecture monks can't even hand over the one hundred thousand souls, right? Then what qualifications do you have to stay here and listen to the avenue?”

"Quack! What does it have to do with you whether I have one hundred thousand spirits? This is the Yin Yang Pavilion! Not the Qian Kun Pavilion! It doesn't matter what you Jin family says!"

"You! Huh! Let's see how stubborn you can be!"

With a cold snort, Jin Weifa and the charming woman sat down at the same time, but they still stared at Xiao Mian with gloating.

At this time, the monk who brought Xiao Mian and others to their seats came forward again.

"This fellow Taoist! What Jin Weifa said is indeed true!"

"I still don't take it lightly for a mere hundred thousand souls - but I don't accept it!" His deep gaze passed over the Zhike monk. Xiao Mian stared at Elder Hou who was paying attention to him on the platform and spoke word by word. Said: "What kind of bullshit rules are these!?"

"You! Fellow Taoist, how can you insult the rules established by my ancestors of Yin Yang Pavilion like this?"

"If the road is uneven, some people will step on it; if things are not fair, some people will complain. This rule is not good, so why don't people express their opinions? What? Isn't it true that your city in the world is all about one word?"

"presumptuous!"

But it was Qingqiuzi who reprimanded Xiao Mian with a hint of coercion.

According to Qingqiu Patriarch's original intention, as long as Xiao Mian obediently handed over one hundred thousand souls, wouldn't everything be fine?

Besides, it was Xiao Mian who made the mistake in the first place. Not only did this kid refuse to admit his mistake, he even said that the rules of the Yin Yang Pavilion were wrong.

Is it so important to have one hundred thousand souls?

This kid! Sooner or later, he will be crushed to death by the spirit stone...

"How can you be so presumptuous in front of Elder Hou?"

"Haha! It doesn't matter! It doesn't matter! Old Hou, I have wasted most of my life in this Yin Yang Pavilion, but I haven't seen such an interesting young man for many years!" Seeing Qingqiuzi mentioning him, Elder Hou on the platform said in time : "Tell me: What nonsense are there in the rules of my Yin Yang Pavilion? If what you say makes sense, not only will these one hundred thousand souls be exempted, but I will also reward you with one million souls. How about that?"

"Look! Look! Everyone, take a good look!" Bowing respectfully to Elder Hou, Xiao Mian looked at Jin Weifa and pointedly pointed at Sang and Huai: "Look at Elder Hou's magnanimity! Don't just If something happens, you will be punished with spiritual stones! Punishing spiritual stones is just a means, not the purpose. The important thing is to make you remember! At such a young age, if you are so obsessed with money, you will be stoned to death sooner or later. !”

Jin Weifa and the charming woman were so angry that they became angry...
