Starting My Cultivation With Time Management-Chapter 695

Chapter 695: Chapter 29 Ah Jing, You Can’t Do It Chapter 695 -29 Ah Jing, You Can’t Do It “`

In this world, the feudal dynasties of the mundane realm have official Historians dedicated to compiling history, whereas the Sects of the Cultivation Realm do not have similar positions.

There are only Sect Deacons who guard the scriptures, categorizing and archiving the various ancient manuscripts collected by their Sect-this is their only duty.

Compiling is out of the question; you read what is available to you, and if you choose not to, that’s your loss.

Therefore, most of what Cultivators know about the ancient secrets comes from occasional finds in the Scriptural Repository that are as rare as needles in a haystack, with the bulk of knowledge being derived from oral transmission.

In some respects, the average Cultivator is far less informed than the people of the modern era marked by an information explosion.

In the era of information overload, it’s impossible to be cognizant of everything happening in the world; one is better off mastering various search engines.

However, in this era, the entirety of “worldly affairs” could probably be documented in something as thick as a New Chinese Dictionary.

...

After all, the channels for information dissemination are too limited, and not many messages can achieve the level of “worldly affairs.”

Ling Yunpo was certain that the Golden Que Secret Realm, suspended high in the sky, must possess some Art Calculation methods capable of detecting global happenings.

Moreover, these True Lords, much like the Sword Masters in the White Jade Capital Secret Realm, are all projections left by the powerful beings of the Human Race from the past.

They do nothing in the Secret Realm but busy themselves with recording these “worldly affairs.” Who could compete with them?

If my speculation is correct, any “ancient secret” that one could find in the scriptures or any “major worldly event” that unrelated individuals could recount can definitely not escape the notice of these True Lords.

To pass this test, one must present genuine secrets-only those exclusive stories obtained from the actual experiencers that have not been widely leaked stand the best chance of meeting the criteria.

However, if the secret is so hidden that nobody knows about it, how can the True Lord confirm its authenticity and not dismiss it as fabrication?

Perhaps they would have to resort to using Art Calculation methods for verification…

Ling Yunpo’s thoughts raced as he weighed all the possibilities, and the others, having come to the same realization Mo Gu True Person had-that “the first to speak has the advantage”-hastily began sharing their secrets one after another.

Regrettably, just as Ling Yunpo had surmised, no matter what secrets anyone shared, True Lord Ziyuan could rapidly complement with even more details, as if she were personally present in the stories being told.

Ling Yunpo, watching from the sidelines, quietly asked Ah Jing:

“Ah Jing, do you have any secrets that could help me pass this test?”

“I have plenty of secrets,” the Kunlun Mirror replied, “but I can’t guarantee whether True Lord Ziyuan has heard of them.”

“There’s also another problem,” Ling Yunpo said solemnly, “How should I explain the source of this secret?”

“Isn’t that unnecessary?” the Kunlun Mirror asked in surprise.

“Can’t you just say it’s from some book?

And these people aren’t from the Shushan Sect, how could they suspect you in this regard?”

“It’s still best to avoid raising suspicion,” Ling Yunpo suggested.

“Although it must be an ancient secret, it would be ideal if it were not a matter of great significance that would make one think, ‘I must immediately report this to my Sect.’

“Your demands seem to be getting more and more numerous,” the Kunlun Mirror sighed.

“Alright, I’ll think about it.

Before she could come up with an idea, Mo Gu True Person suddenly laughed and said:

“This Fellow Daoist Qing Heng, why is it that everyone has shared and yet you have not uttered a word?

Is it because you have no confidence in passing the test and have already given up in advance?”

Having dealt with Qiu Changtian’s nonsense before, Ling Yunpo knew the person had issues and simply chose to ignore him.

The other party persisted and said:

“How about this, you exit the trial now, and give your spot to my subordinate.

I’ll also give you some compensation, how does that sound?”

“After all, you Shushan cultivators know nothing beyond sword control; this is also to save you some face.”

Ling Yunpo sighed, ready to speak when suddenly Kunlun Mirror interjected:

“I have an idea, you can ask True Lord Ziyuan if they know about the matters of the Immortal Realm.”

“What matters of the Immortal Realm?” Ling Yunpo was utterly confused.

“Ah Jing, are you talking about the Immortal Realm that immortals reach after Feather Transformation and Ascension?”

“Of course.” Kunlun Mirror said with a smile, “These true lords are projections left in this world by powerful beings of the Human Race, and those beings most certainly hadn’t ascended yet, so they wouldn’t have any knowledge of the Immortal Realm.

If you discuss the matters of the Immortal Realm with her, you will surely pass the trial.”

“I see, that’s a good idea.” Ling Yunpo said with a cold laugh, “So why would I know about these matters of the Immortal Realm?

If others don’t bring it up, and Mo Gu True Person goes back and recklessly proclaims it, causing the whole Cultivation Realm to learn about it, when Shushan comes asking me, ‘Where did you learn about these matters of the Immortal Realm?’, what should I answer then?”

“You can say you read it in a book…”

“Yeah right, I knew I couldn’t rely on you!”

Ling Yunpo and Kunlun Mirror bickered back and forth, while on the other side, Mo Gu True Person, seeing that he remained silent, laughed and said:

“He’s actually a silent type?

But considering he’s from Shushan, it’s not surprising.”

“Enough!” Qing Heng True Person, usually a calm individual, couldn’t stand to listen to another insult to Shushan, “Mo Gu, if you want to participate in the trial, then think carefully about your secret knowledge and refrain from making such unnecessary remarks, or you’re just exposing your shallow ignorance.”

“No, no, I actually didn’t mean to belittle him.” Mo Gu True Person suddenly crossed his legs rudely, laughed coldly, and said, “Qing Heng True Person doesn’t speak because he saw through it from the beginning, that this trial simply can’t be won, right?”

“True Lord Ziyuan, let me ask you: if we do tell an ancient secret that you’ve never heard before, how would you then judge its authenticity?”

“Even if I’ve never heard it, there are Art Calculation methods to verify it,” said True Lord Ziyuan with a smile.

“That’s exactly the problem!” Mo Gu True Person clapped his hands and said, “We think of an ancient secret, and as soon as we begin, you use your Art Calculation methods to thoroughly analyze the origins and all about it, then rattle off a bunch, and in the end, say ‘I’ve already known this secret.’ How can we possibly out-talk you then?”

“Because from the start, you’ve been on invincible ground, haven’t you!”

Ling Yunpo listened silently, thinking Mo Gu True Person really knew how to twist words.

The true lords designed the trial not to stump everyone but to eliminate most and leave one person to inherit the position of Golden Que’s master.

If no one passes the trial in the end, it means that the Golden Que can’t be passed on and the true lord would have to think of another trial, wouldn’t that be asking for trouble?

???G?.??

However, he could also see that Mo Gu True Person was being obstructive because he felt that the likelihood of passing the trial by following the rules was slim to none, so he tried to incite and stir the crowd into an uproar, to play some off-the-board tricks.

As expected, another cultivator from the Demonic Path, Lianshan True Person, immediately started to raise his voice noisily:

“What Mo Gu True Person said is absolutely right!

If no one can pass this trial from the start, then what’s the point of us coming here?”

Looking at Tian Lan and Shi Yuan, although they didn’t verbally agree, their expressions seemed to waver.
