Chapter 196: People who are not in the rules
Bai Jinye left.
The Ganjiang River returned to calm.
Lin Ye appeared on the fifth floor of Tengwang Pavilion again.
There are four golden plaques on this floor, on which is written Wang Bo's Preface to the Pavilion of Prince Teng.
The words on the four golden plaques were glowing at this moment, and the lights converged to form the figure of a person.
Wang Bo.
Lin Ye looked at Wang Bo's figure. He knew that this was not the real Wang Bo, but the figure of Wang Bo condensed by the literary spirit of the Preface to the Pavilion of Prince Teng.
Wen Ling bowed to Lin Ye to express his gratitude, and Lin Ye also bowed in return.
Then Wen Ling's figure disappeared, but the light that condensed around his figure did not dissipate. Instead, it floated towards Lin Ye like stars, and was absorbed by Lin Ye when it touched his skin.
This is a gift from the spirit of literature.
Lin Ye raised his eyes, sat cross-legged without any hesitation, and soon he fell into a state of emptiness.
Wen Qi is a good thing. Since it is a gift from Wen Ling to him as a token of gratitude, he naturally would not give up such a good opportunity.
The most important thing is that this is not just a little bit of literary spirit, but the accumulation of literati over thousands of years.
The more scholars all over the world admire the Preface to the Pavilion of Prince Teng, the more terrifying the literary atmosphere accumulated over the years.
Even though most of the cultural energy had been consumed in destroying the River God Temple, it was no exaggeration to say that if Lin Ye absorbed the remaining cultural energy by himself, it would be enough for him to break through to the Yuanshen realm.
However, he also knew that this was impossible. Most of the literary energy would remain in Tengwang Pavilion. Scholars with literary talent would come here to visit and might absorb some of it, but there would also be other scholars who would make up for it. This cycle would repeat itself and more and more scholars would gather.
What he could absorb was just a drop in the bucket, but even if it was just a drop in the bucket, it was what many practitioners longed for.
What Lin Ye has to do now is to absorb as much as he can while Wen Ling is closing the seal.
Outside Tengwang Pavilion!
Three old men got off a car, including an old monk, an old Taoist priest, and an old man wearing a Zhongshan suit.
Zhong Shan didn't know the old monk and the old Taoist priest, but when he saw the old man in the Zhongshan suit, his expression changed and there was shock on his face. He knew that the headquarters attached great importance to Consultant Lin, but he didn't expect that they attached so much importance to him that this person came in person.
As the team leader of a city, Zhong Shan has been to the headquarters several times. He also knows that in addition to the three legendary extraordinary consultants who are like the stabilizing force of the headquarters, the most powerful one is the old man in the Zhongshan suit in front of him.
He had the good fortune to meet this person once.
"Xiao...Advisor!"
Zhong Shan stepped forward to greet him, but he stuttered a little when he spoke.
"Team Leader Zhong, right? We already know the situation. Let me introduce you. This is Taoist Master Kong from Mount Zhongnan, and this is Master Xuanguang from Mount Wutai."
"Hello, Taoist Master Kong, and Master Xuanguang."
Xiao Cangming introduced the identities of the old Taoist and the monk to Zhongshan, and Zhongshan quickly greeted them. He had never heard of these two people, but he knew about Mount Zhongnan and Mount Wutai.
There are no Taoists or monks who are not powerful when they come out of these two places, except, of course, those fake masters who seek fame and fortune to defraud ordinary people of their money.
"Is Tengwang Pavilion still in the same condition as before we came?"
"Mr. Xiao, it's the same as before. We are blocked by an invisible wall."
Xiao Cangming looked ahead at the Tengwang Pavilion and asked Taoist Master Kong and Master Xuanguang, "What do you think?"
"I'll give it a try, old monk."
Master Xuan Guang took off the Buddhist beads from his wrist, flicked his fingers, and a Buddhist bead shot towards Tengwang Pavilion. However, when it was still ten meters away from Tengwang Pavilion, the Buddhist bead was unable to move forward. After pausing for a few seconds, it flew back to Master Xuan Guang's hand.
Taoist Master Kong was not idle either. He had a chess box in his hand at some point, and two chess pieces, one white and one black, shot out from the box. However, like Master Xuanguang's Buddhist beads, they were unable to break through the ten-meter distance of Tengwang Pavilion.
"This is the sealed realm that has activated the formation. We cannot force our way in."
"That's right. In my opinion, we can only wait for Consultant Lin to come out. After all, this sealed realm is not a dangerous place. Consultant Lin should be fine."
Just as Taoist Master Kong and Master Xuanguang gave their opinions, a man in white walked out from the door on the first floor of Tengwang Pavilion.
The formation of Tengwang Pavilion seemed to have no effect on the man in white. The man walked ten meters away from Tengwang Pavilion, then glanced at Xiao Cangming and others, and the next moment his figure disappeared from the spot.
Xiao Cangming and his companions didn't even have time to ask a question.
Taoist Master Kong and Master Xuan Guang both looked a little embarrassed. This slap in the face came too quickly. Just a moment ago, they said that they could not force their way in, and then someone walked out from inside.
"Ahem, this person is of a different status. The formation of the Sealed Realm is just a decoration to him. You two fellow Taoists don't need to take it to heart ."
The moment Bai Jinye walked out, Xiao Cangming's pupils shrank. As the fourth person in the appraisal institute, he knew much more secrets than the average person. The man in white was a mysterious person who had registered at the appraisal institute.
He was not very clear about the specific origin, but he had seen a passage left by the first in the sequence about the man in white, the last sentence of which was: Treat him politely, and don't offend him!
"The formation of the Sealed Realm is just for show?"
Taoist Priest Kong and Master Xuan Guang were really shocked. You know, there are many sealed realms in the world, and there are many treasures in them, but even they are tempted. If this person can enter and exit these sealed realms at will, then wouldn't he have as many opportunities as he wants?
Xiao Cangming felt the thoughts of his two companions. When he saw the file record about the man in white, he was also shocked. He even went to ask the first one about it, but the first one just smiled and replied to him: "People who follow the rules can naturally seek the greatest benefits for themselves within the rules. People who jump out of the rules, although not bound by the rules, also cannot enjoy the benefits within the rules."
He was a little confused when he heard this, and he was still confused when he first saw it, so he gave an example.
"People who eat cereals will get sick, and they will be grateful when they recover. People who work will be happy when they get paid. But if a person does not get sick, if he does not have to work... then he will miss these pleasures."
This example shocked Xiao Cangming greatly, because he somewhat understood the meaning of the first statement.
The man in white is not subject to the rules.
"My two Taoist friends, I think Consultant Lin shouldn't be in any serious trouble. The three of us will just wait ."
Xiao Cangming did not explain in detail the origin of the man in white to the two of them, because their sequences had not reached that level yet and they could not access these secrets.
However, what Xiao Cangming did not expect was that this wait would take a very long time.
