Memory Sharing

Lin Jiufeng fell into thought.

Bai Yunfei had broken through from the Seventh Restriction to the Ninth Restriction far too quickly—so quickly that it stirred jealousy in those old-timers who had been stuck at the Eighth Restriction Peak their entire lives.

No wonder such a simple rumor had managed to incite them.

These people were all at the Eighth Restriction, from major factions, hidden cultivators, and powerful independent cultivators. The Feather Transformation Sect could not possibly offend every last one of them.

Who knew what madness they might commit before they died?

Most crucially, behind them lurked two great enemies—the Supreme Dao Sect and the Wen Family. No one knew when they would make their move.

The Feather Transformation Sect had to handle this matter properly.

"You go back and deal with them first. Let me think carefully about what to do," Lin Jiufeng said to Bai Yunfei.

"Alright, Senior Brother. I'll head back first." Bai Yunfei was very obedient. Since Lin Jiufeng had agreed, he knew there would certainly be no problem. He immediately returned to the Golden Summit Great Hall to continue dealing with those senior elders at the Eighth Restriction Peak.

Lin Jiufeng descended from the roof of the Scripture Pavilion and quietly pondered.

These senior elders had come for no reason other than to learn how Bai Yunfei had broken through to the Ninth Restriction so quickly. What they sought was a method.

So, solving this trouble was actually very simple.

Find a way to break through the Ninth Restriction!

But at that thought, Lin Jiufeng gave a bitter smile. "How could a method for quickly breaking through the Ninth Restriction be so simple?"

"You're looking for a way to break through the Ninth Restriction?" White Fox Bai Ling suddenly appeared before Lin Jiufeng and asked with her head tilted.

Lin Jiufeng nodded. "Yes. The Feather Transformation Sect has run into some trouble and needs to find a way to break through the Ninth Restriction."

"I have one," White Fox said, blinking.

"You have one?" Lin Jiufeng looked at White Fox in surprise.

"That's right. I have plenty of ways to break through the Ninth Restriction." White Fox nodded.

"How would you have them?" Lin Jiufeng looked at White Fox doubtfully.

"Did you forget that I awakened my bloodline inheritance? And lately, with my Bloodline Reversion, I've activated many ancient memories. Something as simple as breaking through the Ninth Restriction is nothing at all." White Fox haughtily leaped into Lin Jiufeng's arms as she spoke.

"I forgot about that." Lin Jiufeng was overjoyed. Holding White Fox up in his hands, he said, "Then quickly tell me how to break through the Ninth Restriction."

"Come closer and listen," White Fox said softly.

Lin Jiufeng lowered his head.

White Fox suddenly bit his ear. The slight pain made Lin Jiufeng frown.

The next moment, fragments of memories surged into his mind. Lin Jiufeng saw the inheritances left behind by White Fox's ancestors.

Only then did he understand. White Fox had used a secret technique to share her memories with him.

He closed his eyes and slowly examined them.

White Fox's inherited memories were truly vast, as broad as the sea. She had extracted one portion for Lin Jiufeng to view.

That segment of memory concerned methods for breaking through the Ninth Restriction.

Lin Jiufeng studied it carefully and discovered that there were actually several hundred methods.

Moreover, within those memories, he saw White Fox's ancestors' utter disdain for the Ninth Restriction.

Only this many methods for breaking through the Ninth Restriction were recorded. If someone could not even break through the Ninth Restriction, then they should stop cultivating and hurry home to marry a wife and have children.

Those words had been left behind in the inherited memories by White Fox's ancestors. Seeing them left Lin Jiufeng thoroughly embarrassed.

"The Fox Clan seniors who left those words behind probably never imagined that the Ninth Restriction would now be the apparent peak of the Cultivation World," Lin Jiufeng said with emotion.

From those words, it was clear that they had held the Ninth Restriction in complete contempt back then, recording only several hundred breakthrough methods.

Yet it was precisely these several hundred methods that resolved the Feather Transformation Sect's urgent crisis.

Lin Jiufeng memorized all those breakthrough methods. Then, when he opened his eyes, he saw White Fox gently licking his earlobe.

Her pink tongue licked again and again, tenderly tending the spot she had bitten earlier with great seriousness.

When Lin Jiufeng raised his head, White Fox jumped in fright. Then she happily asked, "Did you see those breakthrough methods?"

Lin Jiufeng nodded and praised her. "I saw them. This time, you've rendered great merit. Everyone in the Feather Transformation Sect should thank you."

White Fox giggled. "You said the Feather Transformation Sect was my home. Then isn't protecting this home what I should do?"

Lin Jiufeng gently stroked her and asked, "How far have your inherited memories awakened?"

White Fox answered truthfully, "Up to the Tenth Restriction. I now know all the cultivation knowledge within the Tenth Restriction. I could have unlocked what comes after it, but my cultivation is still too weak. I haven't broken through the Eighth Restriction yet, so I can't see what lies beyond."

"You know all the Cultivation knowledge of the Tenth Restriction?" Lin Jiufeng asked in surprise.

"That's right. Do you want to know? I can pass it on to you," White Fox said eagerly.

Lin Jiufeng shook his head. "Not for now. I haven't even broken through the Ninth Restriction. It wouldn't be good to look at the Tenth Restriction yet."

"Alright, then. If you want to see it, just tell me, and I'll pass it on to you." White Fox comfortably curled up in Lin Jiufeng's embrace.

"You can freely pass your inherited memories on to others?" Lin Jiufeng asked curiously.

"Of course not!" White Fox immediately retorted loudly. Staring seriously at Lin Jiufeng, she said, "In this life, only you can share my inherited memories. No one else has any chance."

"Me?" Lin Jiufeng pointed at himself and asked in confusion, "Why?"

White Fox turned her head away, unwilling to explain.

Lin Jiufeng smiled gently. "Alright, I know you must have given up something I don't know about. In any case, thank you."

Only then did White Fox turn her head back and ask, "Now that you know so many ways to break through the Ninth Restriction, what do you plan to do?"

Lin Jiufeng pondered for a moment before saying, "Since I know so many ways to break through the Ninth Restriction, the first thing to do is naturally to break through the Ninth Restriction."

"As for everything else, let Bai Yunfei hold them off for a while. The mastermind behind the scenes hasn't jumped out yet, so there's no rush." Lin Jiufeng sneered.

The moment White Fox heard that, she sprang down from Lin Jiufeng. "Then I won't disturb your breakthrough. Break through soon, so you can protect me better."

Watching White Fox's departing back, Lin Jiufeng smiled. Then he entered the study and began Secluded Cultivation.

Having viewed the World Scroll, cultivated the Heaven-Slaying Sword Drawing Technique, and obtained a hundred methods for breaking through the Ninth Restriction, Lin Jiufeng naturally would not wait any longer.

He would definitely break through this barrier.

The years had suddenly grown late; time waited for no one.

In the blink of an eye, ten days passed.

Nourished by spiritual energy, the Feather Transformation Sect was lush with flourishing grass and trees, a hundred flowers in bloom, and butterflies of every color dancing through the air. Everything brimmed with vibrant life, carrying the feeling of all creatures striving freely beneath the frosted heavens.

The Scripture Pavilion stood alone to one side of the Feather Transformation Sect, suspended atop a mountain peak. From there, one could watch the sea of clouds roil, while a nine-story Dao tower flickered in and out of sight.

Within the study, sandalwood incense curled upward as Dao Rhyme flowed.

It was Dao Rhyme visible to the naked eye, circling around Lin Jiufeng.

Lin Jiufeng seemed to be the ancestor of the Great Dao itself, commanding these Great Daos.

After a long while, Lin Jiufeng suddenly inhaled, and the circulating Great Daos entered his body.

Then Lin Jiufeng opened his eyes.

Within his eyes, the Great Daos that had just flowed lingered faintly in and out of sight.

They were the principles of heaven and earth he had comprehended.

After ten days of Secluded Cultivation, aided by White Fox's inherited memories, Lin Jiufeng had finally reached the Ninth Restriction.
