Inside the wooden hut.
Chen Mobai opened the puppet’s head, inserted a Spirit Stone, and then initiated the cultivation simulation of the Longevity Sutra.
A series of code flashed across the screen embedded on the forehead, which then transformed into an information stream flowing from the central controller to the whole body.
With a nervously beating heart, Chen Mobai began to watch as the simulation puppet’s body turned transparent.
Wisps of spiritual energy poured down from the Spirit Stone, simulating the cultivation scene of the Longevity Sutra, where spiritual energy was drawn in. It then passed through the twelve levels, fell into the Qi Sea in the Dantian, and was distributed along the twelve meridians to the vital points and veins throughout the body.
When circulating to the Lung Meridian of Hand-Taiyin, the spiritual power suddenly halted.
Chen Mobai immediately began to observe closely. About five minutes later, the spiritual power finally painfully emerged from this meridian. But he found that compared to the initial abundance, it had lost about a third of its spiritual energy.
“What’s going on?”
He pressed the pause button, made a mark at this point, and planned to review it after the simulation.
Then, the spiritual power reached the Large Intestine Meridian of Hand-Yangming and encountered the same problem as before. Once again, it stalled for five minutes and by the time it emerged, another third of the spiritual power had decreased.
Chen Mobai frowned and immediately marked it again. One of the advantages of using his own invention was that he could pause whenever he wanted.
The spiritual power flowed along the twelve meridians within the body to the Stomach Meridian of Foot-Yangming and the Spleen Meridian of Foot-Taiyin. Here, the circulation was exceptionally smooth. In fact, the power even seemed to have slightly increased when it emerged.
Seeing this, Chen Mobai had a hunch about the answer in his heart.
According to the theory of the Five Elements Spiritual Root, the intestines and lungs contain metal. When the wood-attribute spiritual force cultivated by the Longevity Sutra passes through the meridians of these two organs, it may have been intercepted by the hidden Metal Spirit Root.
The stomach and spleen nourish the earth, and earth nourishes wood. So when the Longevity Spiritual Power passed through the stomach and spleen meridians, it was nourished by the Earth Spirit Root, leading to some augmentation.
To verify his hypothesis, Chen Mobai pressed the simulation button again.
As he expected, when the Longevity Spiritual Power passed through the Heart Meridian of Hand-shaoyin, it had probably been scorched by the Fire Spirit Root, thereby losing another fifth, but the spiritual power became even purer as a result.
Next, it passed through the Kidney Meridian of Foot-Shaoyin and the Bladder Meridian of Foot-Taiyang, and the Wood Spiritual Power was nurtured by the Water Spirit Root, replenishing the part that had been reduced by the heat of the Fire Spirit Root.
Finally, when the spiritual power entered the Liver Meridian of Foot-Jueyin and the Gallbladder Meridian of Foot-Shaoyang, where the Wood Spirit Root was located, it neither increased nor decreased. But Chen Mobai felt that the Longevity Spiritual Power, which was initially refined from spiritual energy, began to truly transform into his own power at this point.
Once again, it converged into the Qi Sea in the Dantian, and the spiritual power turned into a small whirl of Qi.
This represented the completion of one cycle of the Grand Circulation for the Longevity Sutra.
After watching it once, Chen Mobai didn’t linger. He directly fast-forwarded the simulation puppet’s training cycle for all nine layers of the Longevity Sutra.
All one can say is, expensive things have their reasons for being expensive.
During this complete simulation, Chen Mobai discovered many small issues that he would never have considered while cultivating.
But these small issues had become key factors hindering his cultivation progress.
He didn’t know whether there was a problem with the Longevity Sutra that Liu Wenbo had given him or if his spiritual root was not suitable for this cultivation technique.
Compared to the slow but smooth cultivation of the Pure Yang Scroll, if he cultivated following the standard route of the Longevity Sutra, it might result in a situation where he would make great efforts but achieve little.
He would have to adjust every minor realm, and even more changes would need to be made to the cultivation paths of the beginning, middle, and end stages to make it more suitable for Chen Mobai’s physique and spiritual roots.
Being cautious by nature, Chen Mobai decided to make a trip back to the Tianhe Realm to verify his thoughts.
After making an appearance at Bud Hall to show his existence, he went to the Book Pavilion and didn’t hesitate to spend Spirit Stones to purchase the Longevity Sutra from the Divine Wood Sect.
However, it turned out he misunderstood Liu Wenbo. The content of the two versions of the Longevity Sutra was exactly the same, except that the version from the Divine Wood Sect included some annotations and examples to make it easier for new disciples to understand.
After returning to his wooden hut, Chen Mobai looked at the results displayed by the simulation puppet and fell into deep thought.
After the simulation, nearly one-tenth of the content of the Longevity Sutra had to be changed in order to perfectly adapt to Chen Mobai’s physique and spiritual root.
He was eager to start cultivating according to this result, but he felt that the technique from the Divine Wood Sect, which had been passed down for hundreds of years through the Five Elements Sect, surely couldn’t be wrong.
The simulation puppet had made many changes, which made Chen Mobai somewhat uncertain.
He didn’t sleep all night.
When Chen Mobai woke up the next day, he had already made a decision.
Crimson Mountain, Building One.
Che Yucheng was somewhat stunned as he watched Chen Mobai carry the simulation puppet into his office.
“You’re saying, back in your hometown, you accidentally found two ancient books in a cave and found them interesting, so you decided to test them using a simulation puppet based on yourself.”
Chen Mobai kept nodding. As a student, he would naturally consult his teacher when faced with a difficult decision.
Also, over these days, Che Yucheng, the professor of the Puppet Lines, had taken good care of him, the puppetry prodigy.
Chai Lun even said that as long as he maintained his current rate of progress, as long as he achieved Foundation Establishment, he could ask to become a ’ disciple, and Che Yucheng would definitely agree to accept him.
Consulting his future teacher about this question seemed perfectly reasonable.
As for potentially exposing the existence of the Tianhe Realm, Chen Mobai had thought about it.
But for now, he crafted a story about finding treasure in a cave, after all, there have been such miracles in the world of cultivation.
Mainly, he had learned and seen more in the Dance Tool Dao Academy than at any other time in his life.
He is willing to trust his teachers here.
Che Yucheng took out a blank USB drive and skillfully copied the simulation result from the memory of the puppet Chen Mobai brought, inserted it into his own computer, and began to view it.
At first, he was somewhat distracted, but after reading two pages, interest appeared on his old face.
After reading the information, he closed his eyes. About ten minutes later, he slowly opened his eyes again.
“These two techniques seem a bit like a combination of the ancient evil sects
Shrine of Life and Death’ and ‘Flower Bloom Courtyard.’ Where did you get them?”
“From the Taixu Mountain Range’s…”
Chen Mobai made up a story about accidentally falling into a cave as a child.
After hearing it, Che Yucheng nodded.
“Teacher Che, what are the ancient evil sects?”
This was the second time Chen Mobai had heard this term. When he previously searched for the “Devour God Technique,” the national library of the Immortal Gate also had this keyword.

The “Devour God Technique” is a forbidden technique!
Could all forbidden techniques originate from the ancient evil sects?
Or, were these techniques classified as forbidden because they were from the ancient evil sects?
“Have you cultivated the Limit Techniques?”
Instead of directly answering Chen Mobai’s question, Che Yucheng asked something seemingly unrelated..
