Although Su Xiaoxiao's question was phrased as a question, it was clear to everyone that she was certain.
Asking the question was simply to reduce the amount of suspicion between the two of them.
[Omniscient and Omnipotent: Don't worry, I won't spread this around. I only asked you to satisfy my curiosity. You can still trust the Chat Group; it prohibits members from harming each other.]
[Omniscient and Omnipotent: I knew it! How could Uncle Nine have such a powerful disciple out of nowhere?]
[Lin Yu: Yes, thank you]
Lin Yu wasn't really thinking about it much; he was pondering other issues.
Since this world already has one time traveler, there's no guarantee there won't be a second one.
If I can time travel, why can't others?
Furthermore, anyone who has seen Uncle Nine's movies knows that none of Uncle Nine many disciples are children; at most, there's a little zombie.
His sudden appearance made it hard for anyone not to be suspicious.
Therefore, he has always been very careful, and he tries not to reveal his hand if possible.
Even if other members in the group find out, it's fine, but we can't be sure others won't.
Besides, there's a system in the group; this world is more complex and darker than anyone can imagine.
It's best to keep it a secret.
Even fellow disciples would turn against each other for personal gain, and masters would always hold back some secrets when passing on their skills to protect their disciples. Lin Yu believed that the more trump cards he had, the better.
Why did you reveal everything before anyone even asked? Xiao Yan was able to reveal it because his identity was already revealed at the very beginning of his storyline.
Otherwise, see if he'll hide it.
If the Chat Group weren't dedicated to creating a harmonious environment, there would probably be a lot of backstabbing and infighting within it.
Everyone aspires to the emperor's throne, hence the saying, "The emperor's seat rotates, next year it might be my turn."
Not to mention the group owner position in Chat Group. Even someone who doesn't know what that is will unconsciously keep their eyes on the group owner's position when they enter Chat Group.
A divine artifact capable of gathering all the heavens and myriad realms, yet its owner is a weak person—what right do you have to stand above me?
Lin Yu wouldn't have such thoughts, but there are many people who do.
"Damn! I'm starting to get tempted just thinking about it!" Lin Yu quickly cleared his mind of these thoughts.
Although he has Max-Level Comprehension and a powerful backer, he wouldn't mind increasing his own foundation even a little more.
Just like having double pupils is an invincible path, having more bones means having more paths.
This is also why Lin Yu rarely speaks in the group. People's hearts are unpredictable, and if the Chat Group is leaked by any member, the leaker might be an extremely powerful being.
This supreme being happened to be bored, so he followed the clues from this group member and traced them to the world of every other group member.
He just happened to be the most outspoken one, so they made an example of him.
As Lin Yu thought about it, he felt like he was about to develop paranoia, so he quickly dismissed his thoughts.
"Damn it! If that's the case, isn't my private message with the group owner in danger? After all, if the Chat Group is breached, my private message will be exposed!" Lin Yu thought of another threat.
"No! Stop thinking! Stop this mindless thought!"
After ending his private message with Su Xiaoxiao, Lin Yu focused entirely on drawing talismans to prevent himself from overthinking.
Two months later
Nothing happened during these two months; Lin Yu spent a peaceful time either cultivating or reading.
The calm made Lin Yu feel uneasy.
It's strange that nothing unusual happened around Uncle Nine.
During this period, the Lingyingtang (House of the Infant), which Ren Fa had always wanted to build, was basically completed thanks to his financial resources.
In the past two months, Uncle Nine has also collected information on 49 children who failed to be reincarnated.
Forty-nine terracotta figurines shaped like infants are now neatly enshrined inside.
"Uncle Nine, the Spirit Infant Hall has been built, but when will we receive the merit and blessings?"
After Ren Fa incense to the infant spirits, he pulled Uncle Nine had also finished offering incense, aside and asked him a question.
"Master Ren, this matter of accumulating good karma cannot be rushed. For every infant spirit successfully reincarnated here, Master Ren a share of good karma."
Uncle Nine patiently explained the rules to Ren Fa.
"Alright, then I'll leave the rest to you, Uncle Nine." Ren Fa left satisfied after hearing this.
After seeing Ren Fa off, Uncle Nine went to the newly built courtyard, where he drank tea, fed the fish, and played with the birds.
The courtyard was more than five times larger than the previous one, not to mention the living quarters.
It can be said that money really can make the devil turn the millstone. Even Uncle Nine was satisfied and willing to set up the Lingying Hall here, and he took full charge of the subsequent matters.
Lin Yu also came to check out the layout of the Spirit Infant Hall and found that it was not exactly the same as the Spirit Infant Hall in his memory, but it had about 80% similarity.
"You all stay put and don't cause trouble. My master will find your mothers." Lin Yu lit an incense stick for them and gave them some instructions. After all, they were a group of children, and they were all very mischievous. It was even more so when so many of them were gathered together.
"Okay, thank you, brother~" ×n
As Lin Yu left, he vaguely heard them thanking him.
Now that the plot is confirmed, we need to be prepared.
He has everything ready and is just waiting for the plot to unfold.
Back in his room, he practiced the "Jade Maiden and Joy God Technique" over and over again.
This cultivation manual is the cultivation manual of the Three Mao Perfected Lords, and can also be said to be the founding manual of the Maoshan.
The Three Mao Perfected Lords were created by fusing Daoist arts with black and white witchcraft.
It contains not only ancient cultivation methods, but also some unorthodox practices and hundreds of spells. Familiar spells and supernatural powers such as Heavenly Thunder Break, Mystic Ice Spell, Great Water Spell, and Samadhi True Fire are all recorded in it.
The cultivation levels in ancient times were completely different from those of today.
At that time, spiritual energy was abundant, and the internal alchemy cultivation system was still popular.
"Foundation Establishment and Self-Refinement, Refining Essence into Qi, Refining Qi into Spirit, Refining Spirit and Returning to Emptiness, Refining Emptiness and Uniting with the Dao"
Although these realms correspond to the current Daoist Novice, Daoist priests, Dharma Master, Human Master, Earth Master, and Heavenly Master, Lin Yu knew that there were vast differences between them.
First and foremost is its power. The Refining Spirit and Returning to Emptiness can truly move mountains and overturn seas, and change the world; it is beyond human power to resist.
Those at this level are called "True Men" when they are together.
Conversely, the Earth Master, in this situation, can now be exchanged one for one even when killing a slightly stronger zombie, and might even be breached by an army.
The two are incomparable.
This is also because the spiritual energy in the Spirit Illusion Realm is insufficient, the might of Heaven is hidden, and the Underworld is not visible, resulting in the cultivation techniques being repeatedly reduced and emasculated, and their strength and power are no longer as great as before.
The modern concepts of "Human Master" and "Earth Master" actually evolved from the ordination system as times progressed.
This will enable cultivators to have the strength to deal with the ever-growing evil spirits.
What Lin Yu is trying to do now is to transform his current realm into the realm recorded in the "Jade Maiden and Joy God Technique".
