East Village's Little Classroom
He could manage to comprehend it by force, but he always had a vague feeling that something bad might happen if he did.
He was particularly interested in many of the High Antiquity Cultivation Method and spells among them.
Therefore, he decided to try seeking Dong Que's consent first; if that didn't work, he would seek other methods.
For example, try asking the monk who guards the sweeping room outside.
Upon hearing this, Dong Que hesitated for a moment, but ultimately listened to his advice. After all, he really had no other choice but to try anything, even if it seemed hopeless.
"Alright, then I'll go back to the village and find some people to practice with you." Dong Que nodded and said, then pointed to the books in the library, "You can look at any of these freely, and learn whatever you want."
Sure enough, as soon as he agreed, Lin Xiao felt the invisible barrier disappear instantly.
This restriction is actually quite easy to remove; as long as the people of Great Wind Valley agree, they can learn it. It seems that the founders of Great Wind Valley are quite easy to talk to.
But thinking about it, it makes sense. The Great Wind Valley was originally built to prevent the Origin Cultivator lineage from being cut off, so the scriptures inside naturally wouldn't have very difficult learning thresholds.
After reaching a cooperation agreement with Dong Que, Lin Xiao officially settled down in Great Wind Valley.
The specific address was a small, abandoned courtyard next to Dong Que's house, which had been abandoned for decades.
That small courtyard was right next to the Dong Que's house. It was said that it was where other members of the Dong family lived a long time ago, but it was gradually left unused.
Although the house was old, it was reinforced by materials and formations, so the walls and roof were not dilapidated. It only needed to be cleaned up before people could live in it. For Lin Xiao, it was just a matter of Dust Removal Technique.
Lin Xiao moved in the next day.
Dong Que, the East Village, privately contacted a few people he was closest to in the village, planning to have them come with him to Lin Xiao's place to give it a try. They would keep it a secret for the time being and keep Lin Xiao's existence quiet in East Village. This way, the West Village would receive the news later. They could use this time to train with him and see how it went before making any further plans.
After all, although Great Wind Valley is quite large, it is still just two villages. Although the relationship between the two sides is not very good due to differences in their views and they rarely interact, any news about the other side will at most spread slowly, but they will eventually find out about it.
While East Village carefully protected the news of the outsiders from the Stay-in-the-Valley Faction in West Village, Great Wind Valley remained peaceful.
In this tranquility, Lin Xiao, who had found himself a job, began his daily work.
As dawn broke, several villagers from East Village, led by Dong Que, were waiting outside his house for their cultivation class.
Lin Xiao opened the door and let them in.
His courtyard was small, but several tables and cushions had already been set up.
These villagers, who were closely related to Dong Que, were mostly around thirty years old, both men and women.
The familiarity between the group was evident in their eye contact and actions; judging from their age and relationship, they were likely childhood friends and playmates from Dong Que.
Actually, they had discussed before whether they should ask if Lin Xiao's elders could take it with them, but they were too embarrassed to do so.
After all, the person himself had decided to cultivate to the Spirit Transformation Stage before going out, so how could they trouble his elders again?
Furthermore, it's unknown how many people Spirit Transformation Stage senior can bring at once; if it's too troublesome, that wouldn't be good either.
In the end, I didn't mention it to Lin Xiao, and he came to class obediently this morning.
Lin Xiao had taught many people in the sect before and had already become a master, so teaching these people was a piece of cake for him.
Just because he used his elders as an excuse, he even made up some nonsense like, "My elders are keeping track of your cultivation progress in real time and then telling me, which I then relay to you."
The villagers from East Village were unaware of outside methods and simply assumed it was the ability of cultivators from outside, without raising any questions about it.
After all, he's a Spirit Transformation Stage cultivator; he must have a lot of tricks up his sleeve.
And so, Lin Xiao's mini-class officially began.
At the very beginning, the people from East Village were dumbfounded, not for any other reason than that this young teacher immediately asked them to change to the advanced cultivation techniques in the library.
"But those advanced cultivation techniques are really difficult..." one of the middle-aged women protested softly.
Lin Xiao coughed lightly and encouraged them, "These are the instructions from my elders. You just need to do as they say. Don't think that high-level cultivation techniques are difficult. As long as you follow my elders' instructions carefully, you will definitely be fine. You must believe in yourselves. Even if you don't believe in yourselves, you must believe in my elders."
Lin Xiao placed a pile of high-level cultivation manual rubbings that he had copied from the library the day before in front of them. "Come on, choose one."
Since these people are not from the Lingxian Sect, Lin Xiao naturally couldn't let them cultivate the sect's cultivation methods. So they could only cultivate the inheritances of the Great Wind Valley, since they were originally intended to be the inheritors of these inheritances.
The villagers from East Village had no choice; since the others had already arrived, what else could they do but choose?
So the group looked through these cultivation methods and finally chose one that they found somewhat agreeable. They also chose the same one so that it would be easier for the elders to teach them; otherwise, if each of them had chosen a different method, wouldn't that have caused trouble for the elders?
Although Lin Xiao hadn't learned these cultivation techniques much, teaching them to a few Foundation Establishment cultivators was still very easy for him; he could easily learn them before them.
Cultivation doesn't actually require constant explanation; you only need to offer a few pointers at crucial moments. Therefore, Lin Xiao has plenty of time for cultivation.
He also has a seat in the courtyard.
Lin Xiao's lectures are not lengthy; on the contrary, they are very concise. After clarifying the core concepts of these mental techniques, he explains them in a way that is easier for others to understand, making them very easy to comprehend.
This made the people from East Village wonder. Were high-level cultivation techniques really that simple? How come they seemed to understand them so easily?
If someone had taught them these advanced cultivation techniques back then, they probably wouldn't have chosen to cultivate low-level ones.
However, while it sounds simple, its actual effectiveness in practice remains to be seen.
After explaining some key points about the initial stages of cultivation to the villagers in East Village, he sat down in his seat and began to meditate and cultivate.
This wasn't just for show for the people in East Village; he was genuinely cultivating.
He didn't know what the people in East Village were thinking, but he really intended to break through to the Spirit Transformation Stage himself and leave, so he couldn't slack off in his cultivation.
Time flies when you're cultivating. The people in the courtyard felt like they hadn't been meditating for long, only circulating their energy through a few cycles, and when they opened their eyes it was already evening.
This was the first time they had ever cultivated to such a state of complete absorption and selflessness.
