I Can Recognize Everything, But the Information is Wrong
Chapter 341 305: Joy of Moving to a New Home

Tian Lin suppressed the joy in his heart and followed the Daoist Child into the Daoist Temple.

Inside, Elder Xue was still sitting on a meditation cushion, with a pair of divination tools placed before him.

Tian Lin was not well-versed in the Divination Skill, so he could only stand there awkwardly while Elder Xue remained in a daze.

Tian Lin stood there for an hour before Elder Xue finally came back to his senses.

He glanced at Tian Lin and said, "The thing about entering Class A, my Daoist Child has already told you, hasn't he?"

Tian Lin replied, "The disciple is already aware, I am very grateful for the elder's kindness."

Elder Xue said, "Class A disciples are always assigned individually. You are quite fortunate, for the Inner Sect Disciple of the Tong Family has died, and Zhai Xingzi has now become an Inner Sect Disciple. This leaves a vacancy in Class A, which you will fill."

After saying this, Elder Xue suddenly added,

"I know you've reached the mid-stage Foundation Establishment. If you hadn't, I wouldn't dare to make you a Class A disciple. After all, being a Class A disciple does carry its own risks."

Tian Lin said, "Fortunately, I still have Lady Mei's protection, so I don't think there's much danger."

"It was because you went to Cangzhou and retrieved honor for the sect that you've been able to take Ju Yunhai's place and become a Class A disciple. This is the sect's reward for you."

Elder Xue raised his hand and pointed to a bundle beside him:

"Since you've become a Class A disciple, you need to change your clothes and token. From now on, if you have any questions in your cultivation, you can come directly to me. There's no need to go to the Academy for tasks—just focus on pursuing your own Dao."

Hearing this, Tian Lin quickly asked Elder Xue, "As far as I know, the sect has the Way of Cause and Effect, the Five Elements Dao, the Divination Skill, and the Dao of Talismans, etc.

I don't know which of these many Daoist Skills is suited for me."

"The Five Elements Dao is the easiest to cultivate because most of our sect hails from the Five Elements Dao. As for the Way of Cause and Effect, currently, only your master Elder Yu and Zhai Xingzi are practicing it—the Divination Skill and the Dao of Talismans do not really suit you."

He thought for a while and said, "Actually, the Sword Dao suits you quite well. I've heard you have great talent in this field; if you cultivate the Sword Dao, besides seeking insights in our sect, you could visit the Sword Sect, where many Sword Dao seniors have left their life's work, which might be of help to you."

No matter how much was discussed, there wasn't a definitive conclusion.

But every person's path is inherently different, and Elder Xue couldn't possibly determine Tian Lin's future cultivation path.

In the end, he only said, "At your current mid-stage Foundation Establishment, there's no rush to make a decision. You should first explore, observe, and learn more Divine Skills. By the time you reach the Late-stage Foundation Establishment, you'll likely know what to cultivate."

Hearing this, Tian Lin had no choice but to bow and say, "Disciple heeds the elder's guidance."

They didn't engage in much idle talk; after obtaining Elder Xue's approval, Tian Lin took the bundle and left the Daoist Temple.

When he returned to his cave mansion, he found that Lady Mei had long been at the stone table, pouring and drinking by herself, unlike her usual focused cultivation state.

Tian Lin knew what Lady Mei was waiting for, so he didn't beat around the bush: "I am now a Class A disciple; we can move away from this cave mansion."

Upon hearing this, joy spread over Yu'er and Cui'er's faces. Yu'er said, "The master entered the sect less than a year ago and has progressed from Class D disciple to Class A; it's quite remarkable."

Lady Mei, who was next to them, sneered, "What's there to be proud of? Outside the inner sect, you aren't considered a true disciple. Wait until your master can become an Inner Sect Disciple, then be happy for him."

At this joyful moment, Yu'er and Cui'er didn't mind Lady Mei pouring cold water on their enthusiasm. They knew she was originally from the Goddess Sect's inner sect and was now compelled to serve as Tian Lin's sword holder, and they could imagine her inner anger.

"I've heard the houses for Class A disciples have a Five Elements Spiritual Spring, and there's a large monthly supply of Five Elements Spirit Liquid. Moreover, Class A disciples can learn the sect's Divine Skills as they please, and even the maids of Class A disciples receive the treatment of a Class C disciple."

Cui'er had already reached the twelfth level of Qi Refinement, which was thanks to Tian Lin, as he didn't consume the Five Elements Spirit Liquid, so his benefits were all hers and her sister's.

The two's current status was not comparable to when they were maids in the Tong Family. Even the young master of the Tong Family couldn't compare to their current affluence.

"Once we move into the cave mansion, I'll help you prepare the Five Elements Foundation Establishment Pool. When you achieve Foundation Establishment cultivation, you can accompany me on external adventures."

Yu'er and her sister were naturally overjoyed, but Lady Mei frowned and asked, "You don't plan to enter the secret realm?"

She hoped Tian Lin would become a Class A disciple to bask in his glory and later cultivate her Divine Lady Tree in the secret realm.

This concerned her Dao!

"The secret realm is really too dangerous; Elder Xue said that with my current mid-stage Foundation Establishment, entering might result in nine deaths for every life."

Of course, Tian Lin intended to enter the secret realm. Without doing so, he couldn't cultivate his Divine Lady Tree. Without the Cold Fragrance Leaf, his cultivation of Divine Skills would be greatly hindered.

But even if he wanted to enter the secret realm, he wouldn't say so now.

Sure enough, Tian Lin's look of concern for personal safety greatly displeased Lady Mei. She put down her cup, saying:

"With me by your side, what are you afraid of? Moreover, the secret realm has inner and outer areas, as long as we don't go deep inside, what is there to fear from some roaming souls? Didn't you deal with roaming souls at the Immortal Sinking Pond?"

Tian Lin remained silent, and Lady Mei became furious. She stood up and said:

"At your current mid-stage Foundation Establishment, if you want to advance to the Late-stage Foundation Establishment, you must expand your Sea of Consciousness. Only by doing so will you have a chance to advance to the Golden Core Realm in the future. And the secret realm is precisely a good place to expand your Sea of Consciousness, so why hesitate?"

For most people, a secret realm is indeed a good place to expand the Sea of Consciousness.

But for Tian Lin, under the circumstances, a secret realm might not serve the purpose of expanding his Sea of Consciousness. He merely coveted the Evil Spirit in the secret realm, which could enhance his Divine Lady Tree and provide him with a steady stream of Cold Fragrance Leaves.

As for expanding the Sea of Consciousness, Tian Lin had already found a method, which was the Immortal Sinking Pond.

The Sword Qi in the Immortal Sinking Pond was deadly to others, but for Tian Lin, it was a great place to replenish his Divine Soul and expand his Sea of Consciousness.

"Fine, then we'll give it a try? If it's really dangerous, we can always leave the secret realm later."

Tian Lin pretended to be cautious, which greatly angered Lady Mei.

Fortunately, Tian Lin had conceded, so she did not reproach him, though she had secretly resolved to help Tian Lin build confidence in the secret realm, protect his safety, and prevent him from being so frightened by the Evil Spirit that he would never enter the secret realm again.

"Alright, let's select the cave mansion first. After resting for these two days, we'll be near the secret realm."

Tian Lin, having become a Class A disciple, had to host a banquet for old friends. It wasn't to show off, but if he didn't invite guests for such a happy occasion, he might be gossiped about.
