Shared talent: traveling through the heavens and worlds at the same time

Chapter 234 Shocking Daoxuan for a Hundred Years
However, after thinking it over, Lin Bei finally decided to let himself go and not hide his strength.

Firstly, he is now a disciple of Daoxuan, and is recognized to have unparalleled talent. Even if he is suspected by others because of his fast cultivation, it is impossible for others to do anything to him unless they can provide evidence.

Secondly, he has been reborn and traveled through time, and he also has cheats. If he still has to hide it and live cautiously, then wouldn’t his travel through time be in vain?

Moreover, the higher his talent is, the less likely Daoxuan will give up on him easily even if he is suspected.

After making the decision, Lin Bei came to Daoxuan's quiet room again at the time set by Daoxuan.

"Master."

At this moment, Daoxuan was still sitting on the cushion in the quiet room meditating as before. Lin Bei bowed to Daoxuan respectfully.

Hearing Lin Bei's voice, Daoxuan slowly opened his eyes, looked at Lin Bei and said:
"Well, Xiaofan is here? Are you still used to living in the mountains after more than a month?"

Lin Bei immediately replied:
"Master, I am used to living here, and Senior Brother Chang Jian and Senior Brother Duan Lei are very kind to me. They will help me solve any problems I have."

Daoxuan nodded in satisfaction, and then began to formally test Lin Bei's practice:

"Well, that's good. Now you have been practicing for a month. How is your practice of Tai Chi Xuan Qing Dao going?

If you have any questions, you can tell me now and I will answer them for you. "

Lin Bei bowed and replied:

“Replying to Master, I have just broken through to the third level of Taiji Xuanqing Dao, and my cultivation has been going quite smoothly.

As for the questions I have encountered, I haven’t encountered any major questions so far.”

At this moment, Daoxuan hadn't reacted for a while when he heard Lin Bei's words, and he was still nodding in approval:
"Well, I just broke through the third level, not bad."

But before he finished speaking, Daoxuan suddenly realized what he was saying, and looked at Lin Bei with wide eyes. Daoxuan, who was always calm and composed, lost his usual demeanor and exclaimed in disbelief:

"What? What did you just say? You have broken through the third level of Tai Chi Xuan Qing Dao?"

Lin Bei already knew this result when he decided to tell the truth. Facing Daoxuan's shock, he calmly replied:

"Yes, Master, I just broke through to the third level the day before yesterday."

After hearing Lin Bei's confirmation, Daoxuan could no longer sit still. He jumped up from the cushion, came to Lin Bei as fast as he could, and grabbed Lin Bei's wrist.

Afterwards, Lin Bei felt a cool and refreshing air seeping into his wrist, carefully exploring the meridians in his body.

It is Daoxuan's Tai Chi Xuanqing Taoist power.

Fortunately, Lin Bei was well prepared. Before coming, he had already hidden the power of Mahayana Prajna Buddha in his body, gathered all of it in his dantian, and wrapped it up with layers of Tai Chi Xuanqing Dao magic power.

Not long after Daoxuan's magic power entered Lin Bei's body, Lin Bei mobilized the little Tai Chi energy that had just been generated in his body and took the initiative to meet it, allowing Daoxuan to come into contact with it.

After Daoxuan sensed those bits of Tai Chi energy, he was indeed greatly shocked. He did not continue to explore deeper into Lin Bei's body, but let go of Lin Bei's wrist in a trance.

"It's true. It's actually true. In just one month, you have actually cultivated the Tai Chi Xuan Qing Dao to the third level."

After taking his hand back, Daoxuan couldn't help but mutter to himself in a daze.

However, Daoxuan was distracted for only a moment before he came back to his senses. A look of ecstasy appeared on his face, and he looked at Lin Bei with a strange light in his eyes, as if he was looking at a rare treasure:
"Xiao Fan, I already knew you were gifted, but I never thought you were so gifted!
Your aptitude has even surpassed that of the Qingye Patriarch back then!
With your cultivation speed, you will surely be able to revive our Qingyun Sect like the Qingye Patriarch did back then. You may even surpass the Qingye Patriarch and get a glimpse of the realm of immortality!"

Lin Bei looked at Daoxuan, who was so excited that he could hardly control himself. He felt amused, but at the same time he knew that he had made the right bet this time.

The reason why he wanted to expose his cultivation speed in front of Daoxuan was to make Daoxuan realize how high his talent was.

Just like teachers naturally favor good students, in such a world of cultivation, talented disciples will naturally receive more preferential treatment!

As long as Lin Bei showed enough talent and was overall inclined towards Qingyun Sect, Lin Bei believed that even if his practice of Buddhism and Taoism was discovered in the future, Daoxuan would take the initiative to help him cover it up in order to keep him!

And the facts have proved that Lin Bei's guess was not wrong. Just look at the way Daoxuan looks at Lin Bei now and you will know that as long as Lin Bei doesn't commit any unforgivable mistake, Daoxuan will definitely pretend not to see it!
However, Daoxuan's next words made Lin Bei's heart tighten suddenly:
"Xiao Fan, since you have such talent, I can't delay your cultivation. The place you live in now is no longer suitable for you.

In order for you to practice with peace of mind, there is a small courtyard behind the Yuqing Palace, next to my residence. It is empty now, so you can live there. You can move in tomorrow.

In the future, you can come here to find me anytime with any questions about cultivation, and I will answer them all for you!"

Of course, Lin Bei knew that Daoxuan made such arrangements mainly to allow him to practice in peace. Moreover, it was indeed a good thing for Lin Bei to have a great master like Daoxuan in the Taiqing Realm to guide and teach him at any time.

But Lin Bei felt guilty.

He has too many secrets. Not to mention the Mahavairocana Prajna that he has to practice every day. If Daoxuan finds out, it will definitely be a disaster!
Even if Daoxuan is reluctant to drive Lin Bei away because of his current talent, he will definitely destroy Lin Bei's Great Brahma Prajna by then.

But Lin Bei couldn't refuse directly now. After all, having Daoxuan teaching him personally was a good thing no matter how you looked at it, and he had no reason to refuse.

After thinking about it, Lin Bei managed to come up with an excuse. He first pretended to be happy and thanked him:

"Thank you, Master. With your constant guidance, I believe my cultivation speed will be even faster.

But Master, my current residence is actually quite good, and I’m somewhat used to it.”

Daoxuan saw that Lin Bei was hesitant and stammered at the end, and couldn't help but frowned slightly, then asked:
"Why are you so hesitant? Do you have any concerns about living next to me?"

Lin Bei paused for a moment after hearing this, then gritted his teeth and stamped his feet, pretending to be desperate and said:

"Um, Master, it's not that I don't want to move in with you, it's just that your place is too lonely, and with you here, Senior Brother Chang Jian and Senior Brother Duan Lei probably won't dare to come and play with me, I'm afraid I won't be able to bear it then."

Daoxuan was also stunned after hearing Lin Bei's words, and then he laughed at Lin Bei, who was only about ten years old. He forgot that no matter how talented Lin Bei was, he was still just a child. It was really a bit too much to ask a ten-year-old child to live a pure and simple life like an old man like him.

Moreover, if Lin Bei's child's temperament were to be suppressed by force, it would not only have no good effect on Lin Bei's cultivation, but might even do harm.

It was he who had not considered it carefully.

Thinking of this, Daoxuan nodded towards Lin Bei and said:
"Okay, what you said makes sense. So let's do this. You don't have to move here. But if you have any questions in the future, you can always come to me. I will give the order. As long as you come, no one will stop you."

Hearing this, Lin Bei knew that he had passed this level. He secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said with a happy expression:
"Thank you, Master."

Seeing the joy on Lin Bei's face, Daoxuan couldn't help but remind him again:

"But Xiaofan, I know you are still a child now. It is right for you to relax a little, but you must not indulge in pleasure and forget about cultivation. Do you remember?"

Lin Bei had no intention of refuting Daoxuan's words, but simply nodded and said:

"Yes, I remember Master."

Upon seeing this, Daoxuan nodded in satisfaction to Lin Bei, and then pulled Lin Bei aside and told him some tips on practicing the third level of Yuqing.

It must be said that Daoxuan is indeed the genius master of Qingyun Sect second only to Patriarch Qingye in the past few hundred years, a great master of Taiqing Realm. This explanation was easy to understand and made Lin Bei have a deeper understanding of the cultivation of the third level of Yuqing.

I believe that practicing the third level of Yuqing in the future will be twice as effective with half the effort.

After listening to Daoxuan speak for a full hour, Lin Bei finally stood up and bid farewell to Daoxuan temporarily.

Leaving Daoxuan's quiet room and passing through the entrance of Yuqing Palace not far away, Lin Bei once again came to the edge of the pool where the Water Qilin Spirit Lord was.

When Lin Bei first went up the mountain, he had promised Ling Zun that he would come to play with it, but later Lin Bei was always obsessed with cultivation and forgot about this matter.

I just happened to pass by here and went to keep the appointment.

But when Lin Bei arrived at the edge of the pond, he did not see the huge figure of Ling Zun.

Lin Bei searched for a while by the pond but couldn't find it, so he tried to shout:
"Ling Zun, Ling Zun, are you there? I'm here to play with you!"

After shouting several times, Ling Zun did not come out to respond.

Lin Bei thought that Ling Zun was probably sleeping under the pool. He was a little disappointed. He shook his head and prepared to leave temporarily and come back later.

Anyway, now that he has Daoxuan's permission, he can come and go freely in Changmen Tongtian Peak and come back at any time.

However, just as Lin Bei turned around, a "splash" sound came from the pool behind him, as if something jumped out of the water.

What followed was an overwhelming splash of water that enveloped Lin Bei.

Fortunately, Lin Bei's reaction was quick, and his training during this period was quite effective. He just tiptoed and avoided the splash.

When Lin Bei turned his head to look, he saw the huge Water Qilin Spirit Lord with only half of its head exposed, sticking its head out of the pool, staring at him with some resentment.

Stare~~
Seeing that Lin Bei actually avoided the splash, the dissatisfaction in Ling Zun's eyes became even stronger. The half of his head floating on the water snorted again, causing a slightly smaller splash that sprayed straight towards Lin Bei.

Although there had been no communication between the man and the beast from the beginning to now, Lin Bei somehow knew that Ling Zun was blaming him for breaking the promise and coming to see him more than a month later.

Therefore, Lin Bei hesitated for a moment, but finally did not dodge, allowing the small water sprayed by Ling Zun to fall on him, wetting most of his clothes.

When the spirit master in the pool saw that the water finally fell on Lin Bei, he was happy for a moment, and then his entire body slowly emerged from the pool.

Yes, although it was magical, Lin Bei saw an emotion called "fun" from Ling Zun's Qilin face.

When Ling Zun's body completely emerged from the water, Ling Zun stretched out his huge head just like when they first met, stared at Lin Bei and snorted again.

Lin Bei, who had just wiped the water stains off his face with his sleeve, heard this snort and quickly apologized:

"Hey, Lingzun, don't be angry. It's my fault. My master has taught me the cultivation method of Taiji Xuanqing Dao during this period of time. My master has ordered me to stay at home to practice. It's not that I didn't come to see you on purpose."

A certain Lao Liu named Lin Bei pushed the blame onto his beloved master without a second thought and cleared himself of all blame.

Just like some scumbags who tell lies with open eyes.

After hearing Lin Bei's explanation, Water Qilin Spirit Lord couldn't help but glance at Lin Bei with a look in his eyes as if he was looking at a fool.

As a guardian beast that has lived in Qingyun Sect for five hundred years, how could Lingzun not know the rules of Qingyun Sect's followers?

In the past five hundred years, it has never heard of any new disciple being required to practice at home for a month before going out!
Does this kid think that it’s easy to fool the spiritual master?
Seeing that his words failed to impress Ling Zun, Lin Bei also realized his own problem, so he smiled awkwardly and could only tell the truth:
"Uh, hehe, well, to be honest, I just got the cultivation method, I was a little excited, and I was a little obsessed with cultivation.

But don't worry, I have already cultivated to the third level of Yuqing, and will soon reach the fourth level of Tongmai. By then, I will be able to fly with a sword.

Then I can come and play with you anytime, and maybe even go out and play with you."

Hearing Lin Bei's words, the Water Qilin Spirit Master, who originally had a look of contempt on his face, couldn't help but be a little shocked. If he remembered correctly, when Qingye was bragging to him, he only said that he could cultivate to the third level of Yuqing in half a year, right?

This kid in front of me has actually cultivated to the third level of Yuqing in just one month?
If that arrogant kid Qingye knew about this, he would probably be jealous to the point of dropping dirt, right?
Thinking of this, Ling Zun couldn't help but laugh, and his anger towards Lin Bei subsided a lot.

Lin Bei didn’t know why Ling Zun was suddenly no longer angry, but since Ling Zun was happy, he was happy too, so he started laughing too.

Suddenly, Ling Zun seemed to remember something. He turned around and jumped back into the pool. Before leaving, he called out to Lin Bei and asked him to wait here.
