Chapter 111 Strange and Suspicious



However, these unreasonable and annoying voices did somehow dispel some of the unease and anxiety in Lin Xiuyuan's heart.

Although his tone was irritable, it also contained accurate and unambiguous guidance.

For a time, Lin Xiuyuan gradually entered a state of enlightenment.

Moreover, he encountered a rather difficult problem. It seemed that the other party was observing from a third-person perspective through the formation of the Trial Tower, and was always able to give timely guidance.

This caused Lin Xiuyuan's comprehension progress to increase rapidly, which surprised and puzzled him greatly.

However, with this guidance, Lin Xiuyuan, who had already grasped most of the third jade slip trial, quickly and thoroughly understood it.

Perhaps because it was the fourth jade slip trial, the other party seemed unable to sense any spiritual energy fluctuations through the array, unaware that Lin Xiuyuan was comprehending the spiritual rune. So, in the end, they simply appeared and offered guidance to Lin Xiuyuan from the side...

This made Lin Xiuyuan's hair stand on end, as if needles were pricking his back, and the unease and anxiety that had subsided slightly surged back into his heart.

It gave me quite a chill down my spine.

It was as if the old man standing beside him could attack him at any moment.

Lin Xiuyuan could only grit his teeth and continue to comprehend the mystery, trying his best to calm his anxiety.

"Junior Brother Lin... this really is an opportunity! The elder has actually appeared again to offer guidance!!"

"It seems that the masters in the sect value him highly. No wonder, after all, he is a 'peerless prodigy'. His progress has directly surpassed that of the senior sister. His talent is beyond imagination."

"Tsk tsk, how enviable. I wish I had Junior Brother Lin's talent."

“…”

The disciples around who noticed this scene couldn't help but whisper among themselves, revealing a strong sense of envy.

Hearing these whispers, Lin Xiuyuan couldn't help but show a bitter expression, filled with helplessness.

If they were in my shoes, I wonder if I could still laugh...

However, to be fair, under the other party's guidance, Lin Xiuyuan did improve rapidly.

It is several times more efficient than figuring it out on your own.

Whether or not one has received guidance from a renowned teacher can be seen from this.

But that unease and anxiety always accompanied him.

It's a bittersweet feeling...

...

Finally, after a long time, Lin Xiuyuan felt that his divine sense had been over-exhausted and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

He quickly cupped his hands and said, "Uncle-Master, my spiritual power has been exhausted and I am not fit to continue my comprehension. Why don't we stop here for today?"

Upon seeing his senior uncle nod, Lin Xiuyuan immediately fled the place as if escaping.

Watching Lin Xiuyuan's hurried departure, it was as if some terrifying thing was chasing him from behind.

Wang Yangshan couldn't help but smile, shaking his head and muttering to himself, "He really has no gratitude at all! It seems I really overdid it by scaring this kid. I've been guiding him for so long, even showing up in person, practically teaching him step by step, and he's still so flustered..."

As a respected elder-level talisman master, he had reached the level of mastery of high-grade spirit talismans. Under his personal guidance, anyone else would have been overwhelmed with excitement.

However, Lin Xiuyuan's brows remained furrowed, his expression gloomy... until now, when he fled as if trying to escape.

Wang Yangshan had no choice but to admit that he might have gone a bit too far that day... Therefore, this was the main purpose of his appearance to offer guidance.

He did not want to delay Lin Xiuyuan's cultivation, so he planned to guide him slowly, show goodwill, and alleviate some of Lin Xiuyuan's anxiety.

At least, it allows him to continue his training in the Trial Tower...

Wang Yangshan muttered, "I remember my old friend wasn't this timid. How come his is different? He's been giving me so much advice, yet he's still so afraid, not daring to say a word..."

However, he never imagined that Lin Xiuyuan's opportunity was something far more than an ordinary treasure for improving comprehension.

Once exposed, the entire Cloud Soaring Sect will likely be wiped out...

...

Lin Xiuyuan returned to his cave and immediately activated the formation, only then did his mind calm down slightly.

"What exactly is this old scoundrel up to? Is he just feigning kindness to lower my guard so he can manipulate me?"

What happened today was extremely strange to Lin Xiuyuan; it could even be described as outrageous!

If this old scoundrel had some ulterior motive towards him, that would be one thing, but he actually spent the whole day diligently instructing him...

This level of guidance... well, it's like even my own father wouldn't give me this much advice.

While in the Trial Tower, Lin Xiuyuan was momentarily dazed, wondering if his father hadn't died in the Demon Cave, but had instead possessed another body, encountered a tremendous opportunity, and quickly reached the Purple Mansion stage.

It's easy to imagine how bizarre today's events were for Lin Xiuyuan, leading him to have such absurd thoughts.

"Could it be that there is something they need me to do? But why me? Apart from this 'treasure of enlightenment' that might catch their eye, I don't have anything particularly special about me. Or am I involved in something?"

"Then, perhaps it's because of the other party's identity? My identity? The Zhou family patriarch..."

For a moment, many guesses arose in Lin Xiuyuan's mind. He was really puzzled by such a strange thing, and his thoughts began to waver.

But this wavering quickly subsided...

"In any case, we cannot let our guard down until we figure out what this old bastard is up to. Even though there are not many ways to deal with him if he really wants to overturn the table in the face of absolute strength, we cannot relax our vigilance. It might save our lives!"

Lin Xiuyuan shook his head helplessly, "However, at least for now, the other party doesn't seem to have any intention of making a move. Let's just take it one step at a time. The competition is not far away, and maybe we can find a way to break the deadlock then."

They had absolutely no clue about this strange thing.

Lin Xiuyuan simply put aside his distractions and got down to business.

For the past six months, Lin Xiuyuan had been feeling uneasy, avoiding leaving his cave whenever possible, until he ran out of talisman materials and had no choice but to go to the main peak.

Prior to this, the resources for cultivating the three types of spirit beasts had already been in short supply for some time.

Immediately, Lin Xiuyuan took a large amount of resources and entered the spirit beast room.

Then everything returned to normal, and I continued to live a simple life between two points.

After this incident, Lin Xiuyuan felt that although the danger had not yet been eliminated, the other party did not seem to have any intention of making a move for the time being.

Lin Xiuyuan lowered his guard slightly and went to the Daoist temple to attend classes, replenish resources, and study runes and spirit patterns at the Lingxiao Pavilion at the end of the month.

But then a strange thing happened again, or perhaps it was somewhat expected...

Lin Xiuyuan arrived at the main peak again, and another voice transmission entered his ears... It was that old scoundrel again, telling him to go to the Trial Tower to comprehend the Dao of Talismans!
