The skeleton said indifferently: "Next, you will preside over the sacrificial ceremony!"
As soon as he finished speaking, many strange memories suddenly emerged in Lin Ye's mind.
These memories are surprisingly information about the sacrificial altar!
"It turns out... this is the real function of the altar!" Lin Ye suddenly realized, and his eyes almost turned red.
This altar is the place where the predecessors of Taoism died.
It contains endless secret treasures and various secret techniques. As long as you control the altar, you can obtain the corresponding inheritance.
However, if you want to control the altar, you need to have strong spiritual power, otherwise even if you get the inheritance, it will be instantly counterattacked.
In this world, those with spiritual power are almost as rare as a feather.
Lin Ye belongs to the most special type of person.
Taking a deep breath, Lin Ye's heart beat faster: "So...the secret treasures in the altar, as well as the secret techniques, will all belong to me?"
If it were normal times, Lin Ye would definitely be extremely excited. But now he is in danger and the situation is extremely critical. No matter how precious something is placed in front of him, it is difficult for him to calm down.
"How is it? Have you thought about it?" Seeing Lin Ye's delay in replying, the skeleton on the altar suddenly frowned.
At this moment, Lin Ye, who was standing opposite him, had a gloomy face and twinkling eyes. He seemed to be thinking about something and didn't speak for a long time.
"Hmph!" The skeleton yelled angrily, formed seals with his hands, and slapped it into the void, hitting several mysterious runes, which merged together to form a black dragon.
There was a roaring sound, and the black dragon opened its teeth and claws, and rushed straight into the forest, giving him a strong sense of oppression.
"Damn you bastard!"
Gritting his teeth, Lin Ye finally made a decision.
Taking a deep breath, Lin Ye slowly raised his head and looked at the skeleton at the top of the altar, with cold eyes: "I agree!"
"Very good!" Hearing Lin Ye's answer, the skeleton grinned, revealing a row of white teeth, which looked very scary.
Then, he suddenly raised his right hand, grabbed the edge of the altar, pulled himself off the altar, and landed firmly on the ground.
At the same time, the lifelike black dragon was still suspended in the air, staring at the forest.
Seeing this, Lin Ye's pupils shrank, goosebumps suddenly appeared all over his body, and his whole heart was raised.
Although he had confirmed that the skeleton left the altar voluntarily and had no intention of harming himself, Lin Ye still couldn't help but feel nervous.
After all, the strength of the skeleton is too terrifying, completely superior to the forest!
What's more important is that Lin Ye can't see through the skeleton's cultivation at all!
"Don't worry, since I have chosen you, how can I hurt you?" Skeleton seemed to be aware of Lin Ye's psychological activities, smiled slightly, and said easily.
Hearing this, Lin Ye felt a little relieved, but still asked cautiously: "May I ask...what is your surname?"
"Gao Sheng."
The skeleton replied casually: "Don't forget, I was once the leader of the Taoist Sect, one of the three thousand sects of Taoism!"
"Gao Sheng?" Lin Ye thought to himself. After a moment, he suddenly remembered something and said in surprise: "Are you the Taoist priest known as the most kind and righteous in the world - Taoist Gao Sheng?"
Lin Ye clearly remembered that it was recorded in the Tao Te Sect classics that Taoist Master Gao Sheng had reached a state that ordinary people could not reach at a young age, and he had also punished some villains because of something.
This past event was so sensational that even after thousands of years, many people are still talking about it.
The reputation of Taoist Master Gao Sheng has already spread throughout Jiuzhou!
"Haha, yes, I am Gao Sheng!" Hearing this, Gao Sheng smiled lightly.
"It's really you!" Lin Ye suddenly became excited after learning the identity of the skeleton.
He never expected that he would be able to meet his former idol.
"Well, you just accepted the inherited memory I left, so you should already understand."
Gao Sheng nodded and continued: "In order to control the altar, in addition to spiritual power, the other two conditions must be met."
"First of all, you need to learn the Taoist sect's exercises and cooperate with the movement of spiritual power to achieve the effectiveness of the altar."
"Second, your body must be hard enough to withstand the impact of spiritual power!"
"In the beginning, it was because of my extremely strong physical body that I was able to withstand the soul attack and withstand the sneak attacks of those villains."
"So that's it." Lin Ye nodded, feeling relieved.
Taoist priest Gao Sheng's words explained his doubts just now.
After thinking about it, Lin Ye asked tentatively: "Taoist Master Gao Sheng, the secret technique you just performed should be related to the Tao Te Sect's technique, right?"
"You are quite smart!" Hearing this, Gao Sheng nodded slightly and said, "Yes, my secret technique is called 'Control of Things', which can control all things and turn them into puppets."
"No matter how powerful the enemy is, as long as it is in my domain, it will become a puppet!"
"Awesome!" Lin Ye praised, feeling more and more excited.
"Okay, without further ado, I will teach you the Golden Scroll of Morality and the Art of Controlling Objects!" Gao Sheng said.
The next moment, Gao Sheng raised his right hand, stretched out his index and middle fingers, and drew two mysterious trajectories in mid-air.
Immediately, two ancient runes leaped out, circled several times in mid-air, and finally turned into two thin books, floating in front of the forest.
"Is this the Tao Te Ching?" Lin Ye was slightly startled as he glanced at the Tao Te Ching.
"Tao Te Ching" is the most precious treasure of Tao Te Sect. It is said to be a unique book created by a great master.
"These two Tao Te Ching are divided into four levels."
Skeleton smiled and said: "What I'm teaching you is the first level, "The Control of Objects"! If you can understand this secret book, your future cultivation path will become much easier."
"Thank you, senior!"
Lin Ye hurriedly bent down and bowed to express his thanks, and said respectfully: "This junior will certainly live up to his mission!"
"Very good, I believe you can succeed!" Gao Sheng nodded and encouraged: "Next, move your breath according to the cultivation method recorded in the "Moral Golden Scroll" and try to control those two ancient fonts!"
"yes!"
Without hesitation, Lin Ye immediately meditated to adjust his condition.
After a moment passed, Lin Ye's eyes slowly opened, his eyes shining with excitement.
"Senior, it's successful!" Lin Ye was extremely happy.
Just now, when he was meditating on the "Tao Te Ching" with his eyes closed, he suddenly heard the skeleton saying, asking him to practice the "Tao Te Ching".
As the "Tao Te Ching" circulates, a stream of cool air surges throughout the body, instantly driving away the fatigue and restlessness in Lin Ye's heart.
Immediately afterwards, something even weirder happened. That wisp of cool air actually penetrated into the depths of Lin Ye's mind...
"How is this going?"
Lin Ye was stunned and couldn't understand it at all.
"Haha, it seems you have mastered the Tao Te Ching!" Seeing this, Gao Sheng smiled with satisfaction and said, "Do you know what the secret of this secret book is?"
