How to advance to the Mahayana stage in the future is not a problem for Wang Yao at all. Therefore, using something dispensable to befriend a potential Mahayana puppetry master and deal with the shadow puppets hidden in the Six Realms is a worthwhile deal for Wang Yao at present.
Of course, he wasn't afraid that Master Lu would regret his advancement. After all, through their interactions over this period, he had come to understand Master Lu to some extent and didn't believe that Master Lu would be like his adopted son, Lu Bu. Overall, Master Lu was a responsible and trustworthy god.
Furthermore, now that Wang Yao is capable of arranging marriages, if he has truly been tricked by Master Lu, why can't he arrange a fatal marriage for Master Lu, making his Mahayana life even more miserable than death?
Master Lu took the jade box, hesitated slightly, and then took out a scroll from his pocket and handed it to Wang Yao.
"Immortal, these are some insights I've gained from years of studying puppetry. To my shame, even my own children and grandchildren don't think much of them. However, based on my years of experience, puppetry and immortal arts still have many aspects that can be learned from each other, and they should be of some use to you, Immortal."
"Therefore... this old man will give this insight to the immortal," Master Lu said.
"Uh... alright then... I'll accept your offer." Wang Yao hesitated for a moment, then readily accepted the scroll. He did indeed share Master Lu's sentiments.
Wang Yao felt that the line between immortal arts and puppetry was quite blurred in some places. For example, in terms of mechanical puppets, the system had paper puppetry. He had also seen Tongxuan cut out paper figures to serve tea and water, and cut out donkeys to use as riding pets. In some ways, wasn't his "Immortal's Sorrow" also a puppet?
Therefore, understanding Master Lu's insights into puppetry will at least be helpful for Wang Yao in improving "Immortal's Sorrow".
Of course, Wang Yao could guess why Master Lu wanted to give him his insights. If he firmly declined, Master Lu would probably feel embarrassed to accept his gift of the Kan Jing San. So Wang Yao did this to give Master Lu a way out.
As expected, when Master Lu saw that Wang Yao readily accepted the scroll, his expression immediately relaxed. He cupped his hands in greeting to Wang Yao and opened the jade box in front of Wang Yao. However, he only glanced at the contents of the jade box briefly before closing it again.
“Immortal, I wish to try this Kan Jing San immediately. I may be unable to attend to you for some time. Will you return to Shuangliu City or continue to stay with me?” Master Lu asked, looking up at Wang Yao.
It turned out that as soon as he opened the jade box, his divine power involuntarily became active. This could not help but greatly move Master Lu, who had been immersed in the realm of true gods for a long time, and he wished he could use the Kan Jing San immediately.
But Wang Yao, as a guest, was still standing in front of him, so Master Lu had no choice but to suppress his impulse and go to greet Wang Yao.
"Ah... Master, you're too kind. I heard that the effects of this Kan Jing San only last for half an hour. I'll just sit here for a while and see how it goes after you use it. Anyway, I can't really get involved if I go back to Shuangliu City now," Wang Yao said, shaking his head.
To be honest, Wang Yao was still very curious about the effects of the Kan Jing San. You should know that there are many treasures in the Six Realms that are restricted to certain groups. If mortals can use them, then ghosts, gods, demons, monsters, and immortals cannot. If ghosts can use them, then other beings cannot.
Of course, the difference between ghosts and other beings in the five realms is vast, which goes without saying. However, even among mortals, gods, demons, monsters, and immortals, there are many incompatibilities due to differences in physical structure, physical strength, and cultivation methods.
However, compared to gods, demons, and immortals, they are closer in that respect. This is the reason why Wang Yao was confident enough to let Master Lu try the Kan Jing San. But whether Kan Jing San would be useful to a god like Master Lu, and how effective it would be, Wang Yao was still unsure.
Emperor Song had clearly stated that the Kanjing San was obtained from the celestial realm, and in principle, only immortals could use it. Therefore, if this thing was useless to Master Lu, Wang Yao should probably return Master Lu's insights to him.
So he decided to stay with Master Lu and wait for the effects of the Kanjing Powder to take hold before leaving.
"In that case, while I am using the Realm-Gathering Powder, I will close all the restrictions inside the cultivation room. You can move around freely in this cultivation room, but to prevent external demons from invading, I will have to completely open the restrictions outside the cultivation room. You will not be able to leave here for the time being."
Upon hearing this, Master Lu did not hesitate. He explained to Wang Yao all the arrangements he had made when using the Kan Jing San, and then flicked his finger at the four walls of the cave. The green lights that shot out from his fingertips disappeared into the cave walls.
By doing this, Master Lu had already shown Wang Yao immense trust. Cultivators generally avoid having outsiders around them while they are cultivating.
This is because when cultivators are cultivating, their own defenses are often wide open. If there are other cultivators around with ill intentions, the cultivators are very vulnerable to harm, and may even face death.
However, since Wang Yao had made his stance clear, Master Lu couldn't very well swallow his pride and force Xian to leave. On the other hand, the difference in their cultivation levels was quite significant, and Master Lu was confident that even when he used the Kan Jing San technique, he would be able to protect himself in front of Wang Yao.
Of course, this also includes Wang Yao's words and actions since arriving in Shuangliu City, which gave Master Lu a basic trust in his character, making him believe that there was no need to be too wary of Wang Yao.
Wang Yao, on the other hand, had been cultivating by using a system or through divine and demonic forging since becoming an immortal. He had never had the opportunity to learn about the taboos of cultivators, unless he encountered someone like Lü Bu who truly made him uneasy. Otherwise, he had no idea that he should avoid certain aspects of cultivation.
