C1749 Invitation(part Ii)

The night wind blew, and the forest was completely silent. The air in the arena seemed to have frozen, and the atmosphere was so tense that it was not an exaggeration to say that they were at loggerheads!

"Calm down everyone, let's talk properly." Seeing that there was something wrong with the atmosphere, Gu Taixu smiled. After looking around, his gaze slowly landed on Lin Bai as he said gently, "Fellow Taoist Mu, I think you should know why we're here. Since you pretend that you don't know, then I'll explain everything. There are two reasons why we came here to find you. The first reason is to find out how many pieces of Ancient Mystical Jade do you have on you, and the second reason is to find out if you understand the art of viewing spirits! "

As he finished speaking, Wu Xuan and the High Scholar gave a cold snort and finally lowered their guard. However, their gazes were still fixed on Lin Bai, wanting to see if he was hiding anything from the fluctuations on his face.

Not only them, but Tie Yuan's gaze was burning even more intensely as he stared at Lin Bai with a hint of excitement in his eyes.

"Since Gu Shan has asked, I might as well tell you clearly. I do have the Ancient Mystical Jade, and it's three pieces at that." Lin Bai smiled faintly and continued slowly, "But I'm sorry, I don't have any intention of selling these three Ancient Profound Jades. If you want to use your Medial Grade Spirit Stones to exchange for my Ancient Mystical Jade, I'm afraid you will have failed. "

"Fellow Daoist Mu is wrong. Ancient Mystical Jade is so precious, how could I not know that Fellow Daoist Mu would not part with it." After hearing what Lin Bai said, Gu Taixu's face lit up with a smile. He looked at Lin Bai and said, "Fellow Taoist Mu, let's talk about the Ancient Mystical Jade later. Please answer me now, do you know how to view the techniques of the Spirit Arts?"

"What is the Spirit Viewing Technique?" Hearing Gu Taixu's words, Lin Bai frowned slightly as he asked doubtfully. It wasn't that he was deliberately hiding anything, but that he had never even heard of this thing before.

"The one with the surname Mu, are you still fighting with us?!" Hearing Lin Bai's words, the face of Wu Xuan and the old man instantly darkened as they said coldly, "If you don't know the Spirit Viewing Technique, how could you be so accurate when cutting spirit stones!? Do you think we can't tell that you took Jiang Ling for your own from the beginning to the end? It's just that the idiot couldn't! "

"Little friend Mu, the Spirit Viewing Technique is of great importance. I must trouble you to not hide it from me and answer this question truthfully. Don't worry, if you are truly proficient in the Spirit Viewing Technique, we will keep it a secret for you and will not divulge anything to the outside world. " Without waiting for others to open fire, Tie Yuan suddenly spoke. His words were sincere to the extreme. Not only that, his hands were tightly clenched. He was clearly extremely nervous.

It was all for the sake of his amazing accuracy when cutting the spirit stones! Hearing Tie Yuan, Wu Xuan, and the others' words, Lin Bai's pupils contracted. He immediately understood what Gu Taixu meant by 'Spirit Viewing Technique'. It was probably a method to extract spirit stones from the ore. However, it was true that he did not know anything about this technique. However, with the Forbidden Snake in his possession, it would not be any worse than the Spirit Viewing Technique. In fact, from Lin Bai's point of view, the Forbidden Snake's judgement was much more accurate than the Spirit Viewing Technique!

The matter of cutting down the Spirit Stones had already occurred, and the methods he had revealed himself could not be concealed from the eyes of these people. And the matter of the Forbidden Snake was extremely important. Perhaps even the Sword Pavilion's jade artifact elder wouldn't have thought that it would have such a magical effect. As for the existence of the forbidden serpent, he had to hide it carefully. As long as he had it in his hand, he would be able to see through the essence of the stone. If the news of the Forbidden Snake were to be revealed, who knows how many people would want to touch it?

The best way to make others ignore the existence of the forbidden snake was to create something more reasonable than its existence. And the Spirit Viewing Technique could be said to be the best cover to conceal the existence of the forbidden snake!

"That's right, I do have a rough understanding of the Spirit Viewing Technique!" After a moment of silence, Lin Bai made a decision in his heart. He was prepared to fight the snake with his own hands and face off against Gu Taixu and the others, admitting that he had indeed grasped the art of viewing the spirit to hide the existence of the forbidden snake.

As the sound of his voice faded, the entire arena fell into silence. Everyone's gaze on Lin Bai was filled with disbelief and relief. Especially Tie Yuan, the fire in his eyes was even more intense than before! However, his current situation was not that strange. As the successor of the World Spiritist Alliance, his desire for the Spirit Viewing Technique was naturally much stronger than that of ordinary people.

His master actually also knew the art of viewing spirits! The moment she heard Lin Bai's words, Leng Zhan Yan felt dizzy. She felt even more that her master was mysterious. Not only was he a sword cultivator, he was also proficient in talisman techniques. He even had a secret inheritance such as the spiritual arts. It was truly unimaginable.

"Sure enough, it looks like I wasn't mistaken!" Hearing Lin Bai's words, Gu Taixu's face showed an unconcealable joy. He clapped his hands and said in a carefree voice, "With Fellow Daoist Mu's help, we will definitely succeed!"

Seeing that even Gu Taixu believed his words, Lin Bai couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief in his heart. However, he also understood that this wasn't because Gu Taixu was stupid enough to be easily bullied, but because his performance in the process of opening the stone was just too astounding. The spectators naturally wanted to give that unbelievable scene a reasonable explanation.

However, what made Lin Bai suspicious was that Gu Taixu had gone through so much trouble, gone around in so many circles, asked him about the ancient profound jade, and asked him if he had the Spirit Viewing Technique. What exactly was he doing all this for?!

Was it for the secrets hidden in the ancient profound jade? But if it was for that secret, then why did he ask if he had the Spirit Viewing Technique?! No matter how you looked at it, these were two completely unrelated things.

"Mountain Master Gu, since I've already answered your questions, then shouldn't you now answer my questions? You spent so much time asking me just what it is for, it can't be just for the curiosity in your heart, right? " After pondering for a long time, Lin Bai still could not find a reasonable explanation. He turned his head and stared at Gu Taixu as he slowly asked, trying to get an answer from Gu Shenwei.

"Fellow Daoist Mu, please be at ease. I will definitely give you a reasonable explanation. I will also give you a sky-high opportunity!" After getting a definite answer from Lin Bai, the light in Gu Taixu's eyes grew even brighter. He stared at Lin Bai and continued slowly, "I think you must be very curious about the reason why the spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth has not declined before. You must also be curious about how many secrets our predecessors have left behind! "Now there is a chance for us to unravel all of our doubts, and let us figure it out and reap endless benefits!"

Why did the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth wilt? And what had happened among the predecessors, why were there so many hidden histories? The more he experienced, the more Lin Bai felt that the current history had definitely been castrated. It was likely that there were many truths that had already been submerged within the river of history. Especially after he found out about the existence of the underworld, the suspicions in Lin Bai's heart regarding these matters became increasingly deep. Time flew by, and those things could no longer be traced.

Now that Gu Taixu said that he had a chance to understand all these mysteries, and even had unexpected gains, how could he not be moved?

"Mountain Head Gu, I'm not a three year old child. I do indeed have doubts towards the things you're talking about." After Lin Bai heard this, although he was surprised in his heart, he still smiled indifferently. He slowly said, "If it's really like you said, with so many benefits, why don't you take it all for yourself and use your good intentions to share?"

After experiencing so many things, Lin Bai was extremely clear on the principle that there had to be something strange going on! He understood clearly that if things were as good as Gu Taixu had said, how could he possibly take out this information and share it with so many people, instead of choosing to take it for himself!

And there was only one reason why he was like that. It was because the price he had to pay to obtain these things, or the conditions he had to pay, exceeded what Gu Taixu could accept. That was why he needed allies to plan things out together.

"Fellow Daoist Mu, you speak too fast. I won't hide anything from you." Gu Taixu awkwardly smiled, and then said in a clear voice: "Fellow Taoist Mu, you are right. If someone could take all of the benefits for himself, then it would be impossible to share. I think it must be the same not just for me, but for all of you. However, this matter involves too much and too little. Not only do we need to collect all the Ancient Profound Jades, we also need to have the cooperation of a Spirit Scholar in order to perfectly settle this matter and reach the conditions for a search. "

"Among those present, other than Elder Iron and your disciple, all of the ancient profound jades are in the hands of the few of us present. Also, the person who is proficient in the technique of viewing spirits has long since disappeared from this world. I believe that aside from fellow cultivator Mu, there is no one else! In this situation, if we do not share this information with everyone, how will we be able to successfully start this game! "

It's actually an ancient profound jade! Hearing Gu Taixu's words, Lin Bai frowned slightly. Although he had already felt that everything Gu Taixu said had something to do with the secrets the ancient profound jade was hiding, he did not expect that the technique would be mixed with the secrets of the ancient profound jade and become a prerequisite to resolving everything.

"The secrets of the primordial profound jade have been passed down in seclusion for a long time, but no one has ever been able to pry into its secrets. I wonder what confidence you have to be able to surpass our predecessors and uncover the secrets within. " After a moment of silence, Lin Bai still felt that there were still a lot of loopholes within Gu Taixu's words. After calming himself down, he slowly asked.

"There are indeed many people in this hidden world who are searching for the secrets of the Ancient Profound Jades. Moreover, regardless of which generation it is, there will be many people who are willing to devote themselves to the search for the secrets of the ancient Profound Jades. But unfortunately, they found the wrong direction! " After a moment of silence, Gu Taixu's eyes shone brighter and brighter as he said slowly, "Because that secret is actually nothing else but Mount Kunlun!"
