On the first floor of the palace treasury, the elixir cabinets display the most commonly used sixth-grade elixirs. Although they are valuable, they are of little use to Lin Ji today.
The cabinet full of exercises, in the words of Eunuch Chu, belongs to every family, and some of them are the core inheritance of certain family sects. But for a person like Lin Ji who is an accomplished practitioner, it is even more important.
It's useless.
"Instead of wasting time practicing other methods, it is better to devote yourself to enlightenment." Eunuch Chu said as he walked, "After entering the Tao, the complex is reduced to simplicity, and many of the methods practiced in the Yuanshen realm are no longer needed."
Lin Ji gave a slight salute as a way of thanking Eunuch Chu for his advice.
Apart from the elixir technique, anything else was useless to Lin Ji.
Although the weapons are all treasures, their quality varies.
Lin Ji wore the treasured Cloud-Stepping Boots on his feet, and the Qingzhi Sword had a chance to become a Taoist weapon. Naturally, he looked down upon these.
As for the demon elixirs and spiritual herbs of various sixth-level demons, Lin Ji also sold them for money.
Arriving at the deepest part of the first floor, there is another secret door.
Eunuch Chu pushed open the door and led Lin Ji down.
Not long after, the steps ahead reached the end and were replaced by a closed door.
In front of the gate, an old man was sitting on a bamboo chair and fell asleep. A small room was transformed into the stone wall on the other side.
When Eunuch Chu and Lin Ji walked up to the old man, the old man finally opened his eyes.
"Xiao Chu..." the old man said sleepily.
Eunuch Chu bowed and then took out a token from his arms.
The front of the token depicts a real dragon, lifelike, except for the eyes.
Seeing the dragon tablet, the old man nodded and waved it casually.
The door behind him suddenly opened slowly.
"Let's go." Eunuch Chu crossed the gate first.
Lin Ji glanced at the old man who was looking at the door curiously, then closed his eyes again when he saw that the other man ignored him, and quickly followed Eunuch Chu in front of him.
The second floor of this treasure house is much smaller than the first floor. It is also filled with wooden shelves, displayed like a library, but instead of books, it contains various treasures.
"It's no different from the layout on the first floor, except that the things are one level higher." Lin Ji said casually.
It's simple to say, but the treasures on the first floor are at worst sixth-grade or sixth-level objects.
Once you reach this second floor, you have to go to the next floor.
The treasures here are already of great use to monks who have entered Taoism, and they will be coveted.
At the same time, Eunuch Chu's voice also sounded.
"Master Lin has been traveling around the world for a long time. It's time to consider entering the Taoism. Do you have any clues?"
"Not yet." Lin Ji said calmly.
Eunuch Chu looked as if he was expecting it, nodded and said: "That's normal. Although Mr. Lin is already considered a leader in the Sun Travel Realm, he is still too young after all... Entering the Tao is the threshold for heaven and humans, not Japan.
It can be compared to the previous spiritual path.”
Lin Ji's heart moved slightly, and he heard the hint in Eunuch Chu's words.
"I would like to hear the details." Lin Ji bowed slightly.
Eunuch Chu nodded and led Lin Ji around on the second floor of the treasure house.
As he walked, he said: "If you want to enter the Tao, you must first seek the Tao. If you don't even know what the Tao is, and you don't know what your own Tao is, how can you talk about entering the Tao?"
"How to find the way?" Lin Ji asked again.
"There are countless avenues in the world. Some say they are the rules of heaven and earth, some say they are monks' thoughts, some say they are mountains or water, and there are all kinds of explanations."
Lin Ji understood.
Before that, he had nothing to do in the Commanding Division, and he had also read the training notes of the Supervising Division on monks entering Taoism.
Now combined with what Eunuch Chu said, he already had some understanding of the so-called Tao.
"So the avenues vary from person to person, and there are also different sizes?"
"There is no difference between big and small." Eunuch Chu shook his head.
"How can the rules of heaven and earth be compared with mountains and rivers?" Lin Ji asked with a frown.
"How do you know that Panlong Mountain outside the capital is not an evolution of the laws of heaven and earth? God said there must be mountains there, so there are mountains there?"
Lin Ji was startled.
Eunuch Chu smiled and said: "The great road is the great road, whether it is a big river or a gurgling stream, there is no distinction between high and low... But after the great road is understood by people, there are differences between those who practice the Tao.
"
Lin Ji was silent and could only nodded perfunctorily.
He was confused after hearing this.
Eunuch Chu obviously saw Lin Ji's dilemma. He smiled and said, "You don't have to stick to the moment. There are some things you will never understand if you are not a Taoist."
"I understand." Lin Ji nodded.
While they were talking, the two of them had already reached the innermost part of the second floor.
There was a wall in front of him. In the cabinets on the wall, there were several inconspicuous items placed on it.
On the other side is a staircase leading further down.
"There are a lot of treasures on the second floor. Just pick two of them. Even if you don't use them, you can exchange them for a lot of crystals, or you can exchange them for your favorite treasures."
"Indeed." Lin Ji nodded, but had no intention of getting the treasure.
Eunuch Chu smiled and said: "I also saw that Mr. Lin is not interested in these external things, so I brought Mr. Lin here... If the treasures here are not to Mr. Lin's liking, then we can only go to the third place.
It’s layered.”
With that said, Eunuch Chu casually took off a small seal from the cabinet on the wall.
This seal looks ordinary, and there is even some ink pad on it that has not been wiped clean.
The ink pad has turned dark brown and looks very poor.
"What is this? The first level is full of top-notch treasures. Could it be that this thing is a Taoist weapon?" Lin Ji asked curiously.
"It's not a Taoist tool, it's a Taoist map."
Lin Jitong's hole shrank suddenly.
He was no stranger to Tao maps. He had obtained a Tao map at the Xiangzhou ruins in exchange for his current Seven Star Sword, the True Dragon Body from the Three Saints Cave, and the She Shen Sword.
"Is this seal also a Dao map?"
"Not only the seals, but the thirteen items on this wall are all Dao pictures." Eunuch Chu said, "The Dao in them are all different...Lin Zhangling?"
The imperial family of Da Qin is indeed rich and powerful, and this background is indeed not comparable to that of ordinary aristocratic families and sects.
After Lin Ji was stunned for a moment, he subconsciously took the small seal from Eunuch Chu's hand.
The moment he touched the seal, his whole body suddenly froze, and the soul that had been cultivating in his dantian suddenly opened his eyes and jumped into his mind.
At the same time, a picture appeared in his mind. It was a figure whose appearance was unclear, sitting in front of a eucalyptus tablet and reading something carefully.
Lin Ji was inexplicably curious and wanted to see clearly what the figure was looking at.
As his sight got closer and closer, the spiritual energy in his body began to surge.
Eunuch Chu on the side was originally smiling, but when he noticed something strange about Lin Ji, his expression suddenly changed.
