Chapter 159: Chapter 158: Zhengyi Secret Transmission: The Cave Truth Yellow Record

Li Man took the bracelet that Gu Zhao had re-strung for her. She caressed the two smaller Vajra Pearls and two Spirit Gathering Pearls. She wasn’t sure if it was just in her head, but she felt much more at ease.

Gu Qi also took his bracelet and eagerly put it on his wrist. He looked at it from every angle, unable to get enough. He grew so antsy that he wanted to go outside and test if the bracelet really worked.

Gu Zhao said dryly, "If you want to test if this thing works, you can have Mom try chopping it with a kitchen knife."

Li Man’s eyes lit up, while Gu Qi frantically shook his head.

DING—

After the crisp sound, Li Man was satisfied, and Gu Qi, still shaken, sat back down at the dining table.

But at that moment, they were both incredibly excited and euphoric. If not for Gu Zhao being there, they would have gone straight upstairs.

Gu Zhao picked up a piece of twice-cooked pork with his chopsticks and asked his dad, "Do you go to Mountain City often?"

"I do," Gu Qi replied. "The area around western Chu Province, northern Qian Province, and Mountain City is where Golden Rattan Wood comes from. The commercial forests only produce so much each year, so we often go to various villages and towns to buy old wood that has been passed down through the villagers’ families."

Gu Zhao thought for a moment and said, "Take me with you next time you go. I happen to need to make a trip to Mountain City anyway, and I can check out the place that triggered the Protective Talisman."

Gu Zhao had good intentions. He planned to recite the Earth Purification Divine Curse and the Purifying Heaven and Earth Divine Curse there to sort out the geomantic veins and Yin Qi. It would be effective for a while, at least enough to stop people from getting sick just by visiting.

"Uh, I’m going the day after tomorrow," Gu Qi said. "You’re often in secluded Cultivation. Will you have time to go?"

Gu Zhao had previously told them that he sometimes entered seclusion and wouldn’t look at his phone. There had been a few times when they couldn’t get a timely response from him. They used to think he was getting crazily obsessed with his Taoist practices, but now they knew Gu Zhao had truly cultivated Extraordinary abilities.

"I have time," Gu Zhao nodded.

They had just destroyed the Stone King Cave, and it was a time for his group to digest their gains. Taoist Yi Hong was about to attempt a Realm Breakthrough, and Gu Zhao himself had nothing urgent to do, so it was a perfect time to go to Mountain City with his dad.

「...」

The next day, Gu Qi and Li Man both slept in. Gu Zhao ate breakfast alone and then drove back to Yangcheng.

He first went home to cross over to the Otherworld, where he checked on the construction of the Daluo Palace. Then, he saw several old Daoists guiding The Golden Dog of Bond, the Golden Sheep of Ghost, Zhang Yuelu, and Bai Ke in their Cultivation. Zhuo Qingyan, Wang Yue, and the Silk Embroideress were listening in from the side. Everyone was very enthusiastic about their Cultivation.

Gu Zhao joined in and said a few words, then announced that he would be entering secluded Cultivation for an indefinite period.

The few Demons were mainly cultivating their own vital energy and Demon Power, so the main instructors were Taoist Yi Hong and Taoist Yan Song. Taoist Ming Yu was mostly listening on the side.

Hearing Gu Zhao’s words, Taoist Ming Yu turned to look at him, his expression shifting. He sent a Divine Sense transmission, "Sect Leader, you’ve been rather active in the bedroom lately!"

Gu Zhao turned to Taoist Ming Yu, completely baffled.

’I practice the *Golden Locking Jade Technique*. My body is in great shape, and my Inner Breath is long and steady. A little bedroom activity is nothing to me. How could you tell?’

Taoist Ming Yu looked Gu Zhao up and down. "Not only have you been with Miss Zhuo, but didn’t you also sleep with a human woman on Blue Star yesterday?"

"Holy shit!" Gu Zhao swore outright. "How could you tell?"

"Don’t worry, Sect Leader. Only I can tell; the others can’t," Taoist Ming Yu reassured Gu Zhao.

"However, Sect Leader," Taoist Ming Yu continued, "even with your profound Dao Practice, too much bedroom activity will ultimately affect your Cultivation."

"I’ll be careful." Gu Zhao was one to take advice. ’It’s only been frequent recently because things are just starting out. It’ll taper off once we get used to it... right?’

"That’s not what I mean," Taoist Ming Yu said, shaking his head. "What I mean is, I have a Taoist Sect dual cultivation Dharma Gate. After practicing it, you can consolidate your essence and cultivate your origin. Not only will sex not be draining, but through Yin and Yang in Harmony, you can reconcile water and fire and actually benefit your Cultivation."

Gu Zhao: ???

A thousand thoughts boiled down to two words: "Teach me!"

Taoist Ming Yu chuckled slyly, then pulled Gu Zhao along. They soon arrived at a secret room in the Daluo Palace and crossed over to the modern world.

Gu Zhao had set aside a bedroom specifically to store the Zhengyi Secret Transmission texts that Taoist Ming Yu had brought from the Celestial Master’s Mansion. It was a large collection of books, and so far, he had only read the *Shenxiao Taiji Thunder Concealment Book*.

Taoist Ming Yu rummaged through the pile of books, found a volume, and handed it to Gu Zhao.

Gu Zhao took it and saw that the cover still featured the usual scenery of Dragon Tiger Heavenly Mountain, but in the top-left corner were the four large words: *Cave Truth Yellow Record*.

"This is a Celestial Master Dao dual cultivation Spell," said Taoist Ming Yu. "Its core principles are taken from the *Profound Lady Scripture* and the *Su Nu Jing*. It contains specific methods for circulating energy. You just need to practice according to it."

Gu Zhao skimmed through it and discovered that not only could this book aid one’s Cultivation during intercourse, but it could also help the female partner through the Yin Yang Harmony Skill.

Regulating the Five Elements, Nourishing Yin Skincare, and Beauty and Skin Care were all basic functions. If the female partner was also a Cultivator, by coordinating her energy circulation with the male partner, it could also aid her Cultivation.

Gu Zhao asked Taoist Ming Yu, "Does it also work if the other party is a Female Ghost? She won’t be harmed by Taoist True Qi, will she?"

Taoist Ming Yu was stumped. He was stunned for a moment, then said speechlessly, "I don’t know. The book doesn’t say. Why don’t you try it and find out?"

Gu Zhao thought for a moment. "Forget it. I’ll wait until after my trip to Mountain City and see what I can find."

At the mention of Mountain City, Taoist Ming Yu understood. "You’re going to look for the records of the Fengyue Sect?"

Gu Zhao nodded. "I’ve heard that the Beiyin Fengdu Technique and the East Mountain Earth God Skill are Cultivation Methods for Magic Communication with the Underworld?"

"That’s right." Taoist Ming Yu nodded, rummaged through the pile of books again, and pulled one out for Gu Zhao. It was none other than *Beiyin Fengdu’s Supreme Profound Demon-Controlling Black Law Spirit Book*.

Gu Zhao was speechless.

"A branch of the Fengyue Sect merged into the Shenxiao Sect, and later, a branch of the Shenxiao Sect merged into Dragon Tiger Heavenly Mountain. That’s how the Celestial Master’s Mansion came to possess this *Black Law Spirit Book*."

Taoist Ming Yu tapped the cover. "But because the Fengyue Sect cultivates yin energy to control demons, which conflicts with the practices of the Celestial Master’s Mansion, no one has ever practiced it. There’s no prior experience to draw from. If you want to understand its intricacies quickly, you’ll indeed have to find an heir of the Fengyue Sect."

"Fengdu Temple, East Mountain Temple?" Gu Zhao asked.

Taoist Ming Yu smiled. "Find an old Daoist who cultivates the *Black Law Spirit Book*. He would be the perfect counter to the Golden Wind Divine King."

No matter how much Divinity the Golden Wind Divine King possessed, his true form was still a Ghost. If they could find a Daoist who practiced the Beiyin Fengdu Technique, not only could he contribute to the fight against the Golden Wind Divine Sect, but he might also be able to guide Zhuo Qingyan’s Cultivation.

A smile spread across Gu Zhao’s face. "Excellent!"

After sending Taoist Ming Yu back to the Otherworld, Gu Zhao saw he still had some time and began to urgently study the *Cave Truth Yellow Record* in his hands. He wasn’t aiming for mastery, just to get the basics down.

’Time to give it a try tonight!’
