Ji Liao walked back and forth between the rows of wooden shelves, his eyes scanning over the names of the classics.
Yu Yunzhao, on the other hand, pretended that he was also here to look for the classics, while carefully watching Ji Liao's movements from a distance.
During this period, Fei Hua'er was afraid of being discovered by Ji Liao and wanted to pull Yu Yunzhao away several times. However, she was the master and she was the servant, so she could only follow Yu Yunzhao with her mouth pouted.
It was early in the morning when Ji Liao came, and now it was sunset. The blood-like sun dyed the sky red, and the red clouds spread over half of the sky.
Ji Liao walked back and forth tirelessly. Although a whole day had passed, Ji Liao only searched less than 20% of the ancient books in this secret pavilion. Just when he thought he would not gain anything today, his footsteps suddenly stopped. After a pause, he raised his eyes and looked at an ancient book placed on the top of the wooden shelf.
But I saw that the ancient book was not eye-catching, and it looked like a thick finger. On the wooden shelf directly below the ancient book, there was a small wooden sign hanging, with the four words "True Spirit Taotie" written on it. Big letters.
"Hey, I have it!" Ji Liao's eyes lit up.
Raising his hand and pointing, Taotie's ancient book immediately moved on the wooden shelf, fell off, and slowly fell into Ji Liao's hands.
Looking at the Taotie ancient book, Ji Liao put a smile on his lips, leaned against the wooden frame, and opened the ancient book containing Taotie in his hand under the afterglow of dusk.
Yu Yunzhao and Fei Huaer in the distance stretched their necks and glanced at Ji Liao a few times, then looked at each other again, and finally retracted their necks.
The classic book in Ji Liao's hand was simple in style. When he opened the cover, the first page showed an image of a half-lying Taotie. He opened the page and looked at the second page.
"The Taotie is a true spirit. It has two horns on its head and a beard like a cloud. It is a foodie by nature and can devour everything in the world."
Ji Liao glanced at these lines and then turned to the second page.
Starting from the second page, the classics record some details about Taotie's abilities, appearance, characteristics, and living habits. After the halfway point, it begins to record some past events of the Zhenling Taotie clan since the beginning of the world, and what happened to them. What kind of strong man he was, the methods he used well against the enemy, what race he fought against, and so on.
Ji Liao read it with relish, flipping through page after page. Unknowingly, time passed by quietly, and in the blink of an eye, it was the time when the moon rises above the willows.
Ji Liao, on the other hand, was watching with rapt attention, but he was feeling miserable as he secretly observed his master and servants.
It was okay for Yu Yunzhao, after all, Ji Liao would be her husband-in-law soon, while her servant Fei Hua'er lacked interest and was bored. He randomly took an ancient book in his hand and flipped through it. Bored look.
At this moment, Yu Yunzhao, who had just stuck his head out to peek at Ji Liao, suddenly shrunk his neck, pulled Fei Hua'er, who was pouting next to him, and took two quick steps towards another place. After a while, he disappeared. .
Ji Liao put Taotie's classics back. He had read the classics from beginning to end.
According to the records in the classics, the Taotie clan of the True Spirit is one of the top strong ones among the True Spirits. They are also quite domineering and often fight with other races. Just the records of the fights between the Taotie clan and other races are enough. There are dozens of pages, occupying almost half of the book.
Ji Liao learned from this that the Taotie's innate ability to devour was extremely powerful. It could devour all things for its own use. At the same time, it could also improve its own realm through the things it devoured. It could swallow any elixir or magic weapon. As for Devour, when the Taoist intention that has been swallowed by oneself has reached a high level, even the top-level immortal weapon can only be enough for a gluttonous meal.
Ji Liao has already begun to experience this kind of Dao. At first, the two kinds of Dao in his body can only devour the invisible and refine the tangible. The difference is very obvious. However, as his Dao strengthens, these two Dao will There is already a trend of merging with each other, becoming more and more similar, and there is a feeling of coming from the same roots.
Ji Liao put the classic book back. At this time, the outside world was already dark, but the dome of the secret pavilion was lit up with dots of fluorite, illuminating the interior of the secret pavilion.
Ji Liao speculated that the Taotie's classics had been found, and it was estimated that the classics that recorded Qilin, which was similar to it, should be nearby. Therefore, he had no intention of leaving, and planned to collect the classics that recorded Qilin overnight. find out.
There was a clicking sound, and the sound of Ji Liao's footsteps on the wooden floor was particularly conspicuous in this silent secret chamber.
Sure enough, Ji Liao had just walked more than ten feet away. In the middle compartment of the wooden frame, Ji Liao found a wooden sign with the word Qilin carved on it.
Ji Liao raised his eyebrows, took out the ancient book that recorded Qilin, and opened it to read.
It is almost the same as the classic book that records Taotie. When you open the cover, the first page is the image of Qilin.
Ji Liao just glanced briefly and turned to the second page.
"Qilin is a true spirit. It has dragon horns on its head and scales all over its body. It is almost the same form as the Holy Spirit. It can transform into three forms: water, fire, and thunder. It is born to refine Taoism and can refine all things in the world."
Later, Ji Liao's mind was immersed in the ancient books recording Qilin.
Time passed by, and it was already midnight.
Ji Liao closed the book in his hand and exhaled a long breath.
After searching for a long time and entering the Taoism for thousands of years, Ji Liao finally had a thorough understanding of the origins of the two true spirits, Qilin and Taotie, as well as their own abilities.
This unicorn is the body of a true spirit and is one of the best among true spirits. In Ji Liao's opinion, its strength is even higher than that of Taotie.
Their innate Taoism is refining, and they can refine all things in the world through their own Taoism. Spells and other things cannot escape its refining power, and Qilin can refine the essence of all things to improve their abilities. The power of one's own body.
Taotie devours everything in the world and improves its own realm, while Qilin refines all things and improves the physical body.
These two Taoist intentions are almost the same, except for the supplements obtained. However, once these two Taoist intentions are combined into one, they can swallow and refine all things in the world, and enhance their realm and body. For monks, It's definitely a win-win situation.
However, these two kinds of Taoism are born to be overbearing. Although they are similar, it is simply impossible to combine them and condense them into one person. From ancient times to the present, there are only the Great Ni Tianzun. It's just a person with amazing talent who has accomplished it alone. This is why Kantian Guiyuan Jue and Five Elements Fire Evolution Jue are precious.
Ji Liao put back the ancient book that recorded Qilin and frowned in thought.
There is no record in the two classics about swallowing up other people's will to make up for one's own.
This monk's Taoist intention is so illusory that it is almost impossible to swallow and refine it.
Ji Liao once again leaned on the wooden frame, holding his chin in his hand and pondering in his mind.
Time flew by, and as Ji Liao pondered, it was already dawn on the second day.
During this period, Ji Liao did not move. It was not until the first ray of sunlight came through the door and fell on him that Ji Liao's eyes flashed and he took action.
"Perhaps the two Taoist meanings merged into one, and a stronger Taoist meaning was derived from the two Taoist intentions." After thinking for so long, Ji Liao could only come to this conclusion.
After all, the Great Ni Tianzun who truly understood these two Taoist meanings is dead. If he wants to figure out what they really contain, he can only rely on his own understanding of the Tao of Swallowing Refining and slowly explore on his own.
"Why..."
After taking a look at the sky outside, Ji Liao took a long breath, walked towards the outside world, and disappeared into the secret pavilion within a moment.
Ji Liao's figure disappeared. Yu Yunzhao, who had been staring at Ji Liao all day and night, his eyes lit up, his golden eyes flashed, and he pulled Fei Hua'er aside.
"Miss, what are you going to do?" Fei Hua'er said reluctantly.
"Let's go see what secret book he read."
After saying that, he took Fei Hua'er and ran towards the place where Ji Liao just left.
The master and the servant were scanning back and forth on the wooden shelf. There were too many dense ancient books. Putting them back was like throwing a grain of sand into the sea of sand. Although they had already observed it, the master and the servant still spent a lot of time at this time. After a lot of effort, I finally found Qilin's classic book that showed signs of being moved.
"Eh? Why are you reading the classics about Qilin?" Fei Hua'er said in confusion as he looked at the classics in Yu Yunzhao's hand.
"Hey, I've already told you, don't call him uncle, don't call him uncle." When Yu Yunzhao heard Fei Hua'er blurt out the word uncle, his pretty face hidden under the veil turned red, and he punched Fei Hua'er twice. Down.
"Okay, okay, I remember, I remember, I won't dare to do it next time." Fei Hua'er quickly begged for mercy.
Yu Yunzhao withdrew his gaze, looking at the Qilin classics in his hand and frowning, "Qilin...why is he looking at this?"
After whispering, Yu Yunzhao's golden eyes flashed slightly, "Hua'er, let's go and see what classics he read before."
"Ouch..."
Fei Hua'er agreed, and just as he was about to turn around, he exclaimed again, "Oh..."
Yu Yunzhao, who had just put the classics back, hesitated slightly. His golden eyes immediately shrank, and he and Fei Hua'er looked at the end of the row of wooden shelves.
But at the end of the wooden frame, there was a man with long blue hair, leaning against the wooden frame, looking at the two of them with a faint smile, but who could it be if it wasn't Ji Liao.
