"Come, disciple, take a look at the Pure Light Sutra I have prepared for you. Study it diligently. If you make a mistake, refer to the prescription on page eighty-six. By the time I reach the Transcendence Stage, I should be able to refine it. Don't forget to help me with alchemy then."
As he spoke, he opened the Pure Light Sutra and pointed out the specific formula she was interested in. Gu Xin realized that he wanted her to assist him with alchemy, which explained the hefty price he must have paid to bring her on board. Rather than being a mere acquisition, it felt more like a purchase. Given Liu Shizu's childlike nature, he must have been quite distressed about it.
Gu twitched her lips as she took the Pure Light Sutra back, eager to return to her residence for cultivation. Now that she had the cultivation method, she could figure out what level she was at and also delve into the mysteries of the Light Dao Foundation and Chaotic Dao Foundation. With a reference point, she could discern which memories of the Primordial Celestial Demon related to Liu Dong were complete and which were not, as well as identify the demonic cultivation methods versus the orthodox ones.
Moreover, regarding the battle against Zun Wei Guangming in Surrounded, there were some fragmented memories connected to Coco and Primordial Dao's search for transcendental techniques. However, those memories had suffered severe damage during Keke's initial struggle against the Primordial Celestial Demon.
"If there’s nothing else, Master, I will take my leave," Gu said.
"What's wrong? Don’t you want to stay and gaze at your master a bit longer?" The voice that sounded like celestial music reached Gu's ears, making her feel completely relaxed. She shook her head and walked outside. Liu Shizu was unpredictable; one moment she seemed like a child and the next like a fairy, which was truly overwhelming for Gu.
As the saying goes, this place is not suitable for prolonged stays; if they talked any longer, Gu might fall into a trap. I don't deny it; leaving is the best strategy. With that thought in mind, Gu hurriedly took Yoyo away, fearing that Liu Shizu might target Yoyo or Liu Dong.
Liu Shizu made a delicate gesture with her fingers near her lips and smiled at Gu as she walked out of her courtyard. Her fingers danced gracefully by her lips; if she were in a crowd, she would surely captivate many.
Upon arriving at her residence, Gu saw Xiao Yi waiting nearby with a book in hand. It was unclear what he had written or how long he had been waiting.
Seeing Gu approach, Xiao Yi hurried over to greet her. "Congratulations on being chosen as Liu Shizu's disciple! The Outer Court disciples are all saying you’ve earned great fortune in your lifetime!"
"Do I think so?" Gu Hu asked with a smile.
Hearing those words, Xiao Yi's smile froze for a moment. Although there wasn't a significant change in his expression, it was still evident that Gu wasn't as ecstatic as he had expected.
"Brother, are you joking? How could Xiao Yi not want to seek again? What does seeking again mean to you, Brother?" It seemed that Gu was quite perceptive, able to read between the lines. Xiao Yi decided to keep quiet, still managing to navigate the conversation smoothly.
"What is it then?"
"Oh, it's about some basic information regarding the Cultivation World that I saw outside at the Fairy Market. It includes the locations of various Earth Immortal cities and some commonly used foundational techniques, along with some peculiar texts."
Gu patiently listened as Xiao Yi finished speaking and took the book titled "Basic Knowledge of the Cultivation World." It would indeed be useful; the editor had put in a lot of effort. Xiao Yi was quite thoughtful too, but Gu couldn't help but wonder what his relationship with Wang Zhi was. As someone who ran errands for the Outer Court, he seemed to have a decent reputation. Being an Eastern person, it probably wasn't that simple.
"Well, it looks quite useful. If there's nothing else, I'll take it for now." Just as Gu was about to enter the house, he suddenly remembered something and paused. He would need to ask his Xuanming Senior Brother about that No Master bestowed title; once he thought of that name, he wouldn't be appearing in the Outer Court anymore. He had to remember it.
Xiao Yi nodded upon hearing Gu's words but was left pondering their meaning. Was there a specific reason for such a reminder? It felt like something significant. As they walked, Xiao Yi scratched his head, feeling somewhat perplexed.
Once at his residence, Gu placed the book down and reflected on his recent experiences at Liu Shizu's place. He hadn't sensed any aura of brightness from Liu Shizu—not even a hint of it. The perception from the Light Dao Foundation couldn't be wrong, but what about that Xuanming title?
With the Pure Light Sutra being so simple as Liu Shizu claimed, could it really have been dug up from someone's grave? Did Liu Shizu genuinely want him to refine pills? Observing his spiritual power, he recalled memories from his Heavenly Spirit Root and Primordial Celestial Demon; however, there was none of what Liu Shizu described—absorbing the purest Spiritual Energy from heaven and earth right after birth. Why would Liu Shizu lie?
She had mentioned that the Pure Light Sutra was most suitable for Gu's cultivation method and that it was among the top-tier light-based cultivation methods. Having seen other top-tier light-based methods herself, she must have made him doubt Liu Shizu's true identity.
Could she also be someone from the Light Path Classic? If that were true, as a disciple of Mok Ming Academy's Fourteenth Generation, her standing would be quite high. The ten preceding generations must have long since transcended the Dust Realm; if they had died, they would have ascended to the Celestial Realm by now. Thus, considering time, even if she were just a Mahayana Practitioner, she could very well be a Great Master of Refining Spirit and Returning to Void. If she were indeed from the Light Path Classic, then Yuanji Academy might be worse off than Gu imagined.
Wait a minute—Gu Hu suddenly thought of another possibility: could Liu Shizu have intentionally revealed those clues? If she truly belonged to the Light Path Classic, then she might be forcing him to choose sides. If she were indeed from the Light Path Classic, then this could be a test for him—was she really from there after all?
At this moment, Gu found himself in a dilemma. He had thought that entering the academy would allow him to escape from all the complexities, but after just two days, he was already being watched. The Light Path Classic truly seemed to haunt him relentlessly.
