Chapter 42: Five Elements and Five Directions Thunder Sutra
After completing spell practice at night, return to your room and close the door.

After entering the space and looking around, I found no problems and completed today's task of promoting the growth of spiritual plants.

Then he found a place to sit down, took out the book containing the treasure, and after studying it carefully, he did not find any flaws. He scanned it carefully with his spiritual sense, but still did not find anything.

After some research, I realized that if there really was something hidden, the most likely place would be the front and back covers.

He took out the golden light-escaping needle and peeled off the cover little by little. Sure enough, there was something inside. After peeling it off completely, a piece of gauze thinner than the wings of a cicada appeared in front of Lin Changqing.

When you unfold it gently, it turns out to be ten feet square, covered with dense text and patterns. But it is as light as a feather in the hand and you can hardly feel the weight. It's amazing!
Lin Changqing also discovered one thing: the part where his fingers were pinching the gauze was no longer visible.

In order to verify the hypothesis, I released a purple crystal scorpion, and then covered it with a veil. The purple crystal scorpion disappeared. When I picked up the veil, the purple crystal scorpion reappeared. I understood that this veil should have the effect of invisibility and anti-detection.

It should at least be a spiritual weapon or a magic weapon. No wonder nothing was found when the divine sense scanned it. Moreover, it has been hidden for hundreds of years without being discovered by anyone. It must be a great treasure.

Lin Changqing tried to input spiritual energy into the gauze, but it was simply a bottomless pit. There was no feedback when the spiritual energy entered it.

Since it cannot be refined for the time being, let’s wait until the Foundation Establishment Stage to try!
Let’s turn to study the text pattern above.

When unfolded, the whole thing is about ten feet square, with text and patterns on both sides. After careful comparison, it is basically confirmed that it is the Golden Seal Script, one of the three ancient spiritual scripts. It is said that the Golden Seal Script is the script used in the fairy world, and later spread to the lower world.

Fortunately, it is the Golden Seal Script. The characters used in the world of immortal cultivation now are simplified versions of the Golden Seal Script, collectively known as Seal Script. All Seal Script characters should be able to find corresponding Golden Seal Scripts.

Lin Changqing felt lucky. If it was Yintawen or Zhenlingwen, Lin Changqing would be at a loss! These two types of characters are only recorded now.

Now Lin Changqing could only guess and recognize that this was a set of exercises called "The True Scripture of Five Directions and Five Elements Thunder".

After a quick glance, I felt that the techniques were quite complete, and seemed to be able to be cultivated to the Spiritual Transformation Stage and above. There were also various lightning magic techniques, as well as the methods of refining nine kinds of magic weapons that could be evolved, and the corresponding Tongbao Jue.

As for the rest, wait until you find the corresponding information between Jin Zhuanwen and Zhuanwen before translating them carefully. Otherwise, if you translate them wrongly, the difference will be huge.

I'll go to the family scripture library tomorrow to see if there's such information. It would be much more convenient if there is.

There is another problem. There are only a few spirit stones left in the storage bag, and I don’t know when grandpa and aunt will come back.

I have to find a way to earn spirit stones, otherwise I won’t be able to afford to keep the Amethyst Scorpion.

The next morning, Lin Changqing finished his training for the day and felt that he had made a little progress. He was in a good mood! Today, he invited his friends to Aoyun Peak for a small gathering and to distribute the spoils.

We must first go to Ao Yun Peak to complete today's task of promoting the birth of spiritual plants, and then prepare things to entertain the guests. The amethyst scorpion is still in the spiritual beast bag, and we must also take it to Ao Yun Peak to bask in the sun and feed it.

Chuyi also needs to be rewarded. He discovered the enemy more than ten miles ahead of time yesterday, which gave Lin Changqing and his men ample time to prepare. He has made a great contribution.

I'll just reward you with a Soul-Nourishing Pill first. It's too recent since I last took the Red Fruit, so I can't take it again. I'll have to bear with it for now.

Every time they got close to Ao Yun Peak, Chu Yi could spot him from afar and come to greet him. The man and the bird flew around Ao Yun Peak at high speed for several circles. This was a new game for the master and servant, and it was also the time for Lin Chang Qing to practice flying.

After flying enough, it landed in the yard, fed Chuyi a soul-nourishing pill, and let it go out to play by itself.

Release the amethyst scorpions and feed them, then ignore them and they will find a place to bask in the sun by themselves.

In fact, they can now find food for themselves, but Jiufeng Mountain is the Lin family's territory, and there are no wild beasts or monsters for them to hunt, so they still have to rely on Lin Changqing to raise them.

Lin Changqing had just arranged the spiritual fruits and was about to boil water for tea when he received Chuyi's warning and saw a spiritual boat flying towards Ao Yun Peak. He knew that his friends were coming.

I hurried to the door to greet them. After a night's rest, everyone was in good spirits and should have adjusted themselves.

"Brother Jiu, what good things can you give us today?" Lin Changlian was still the most lively. She asked Lin Changqing for food and drinks as soon as they met.

"There are plenty of spiritual fruits and spiritual tea for you to drink as much as you want." Lin Changqing also replied mischievously.

"Who wants to drink until they are full? Only fools want to drink tea until they are full." Lin Changlian was speechless.

Lin Changjie smiled and said, "I brought some sweet-scented osmanthus cakes made by my mother. I can use them as tea later. They should be quite good."

Lin Changyuan also spoke up: "I also brought some stir-fried broad beans, which are quite fragrant and a great accompaniment to tea."

Lin Changlian exclaimed, "I brought jujube paste cakes. I thought I was the only one who brought delicious food, but I didn't expect you guys brought some too." Lin Changhao touched his head embarrassedly, "You're talking about me. I really didn't expect that."

Everyone burst into laughter after hearing this, which made Lin Changhao even more embarrassed.

We all grew up together, so of course we wouldn't fuss over such a small matter.

"Come, come, come, everyone sit down, there is too much food to finish.

Try this freshly brewed jade tea. It is a second-level spiritual tea that has the effect of refreshing the mind.

Usually it is given to foundation-building monks, and today we will enjoy the treatment of foundation-building monks. "Lin Changqing quickly invited them to sit down and drink tea.

Everyone tried it quickly and found that the second-level spiritual tea was indeed different. After taking a sip, they felt refreshed and their thinking became much clearer.

"Ninth brother, you won't steal your grandfather's tea to treat us, right? Will it cause you to get beaten by your grandfather?" Fifth brother asked a little worriedly.

It's okay, this is what my grandfather gave me, don't steal it, you can drink it without worry! Lin Changqing quickly explained, otherwise they would not dare to drink it.

Everyone then began to taste the tea with confidence. It turned out that the second-level spiritual tea was really effective. If one drank a cup before each practice, the effect would definitely be better.

Therefore, Lin Changqing decided that he would drink a cup of Qingyu Lingcha before practicing in the future so that he could practice in a better state.

More jade tea trees should be planted in that space. After all, the space is large enough and they can be grown and survive with the root system.

If there are any extra ones, we can sell them to Wanbao Pavilion. What a good idea!
Time passed quickly as everyone drank tea, ate cakes, talked and played. It was only when Lin Changlian reminded everyone that there were still trophies that had not been seen that they reminded everyone, otherwise they might have forgotten about it.

Six storage bags were piled on the table, along with magic tools and some small miscellaneous items.

Each person picked up a storage bag and refined it. Lin Changqing refined it for a while and saw that it was a three-sided storage bag. He poured out all the contents.

There were about three or four hundred spirit stones, three bottles of elixirs, a few talismans, some clothes and miscellaneous items.

I flipped through it and found a copy of the Thick Earth Technique. The rest were useless. I'll exchange them all for the General Affairs Hall when the time comes!
The Thick Earth Technique is a very common technique in the world of immortal cultivation and has little value.

It seemed that the things that the companions poured out were similar, about two thousand spirit stones, thirteen bottles of pills, mainly medium and low-level Qi Gathering Pills, and also one or two bottles of Qi Restoring Pills and Healing Pills.

There was one storage bag left. Lin Changqing estimated that the contents inside were similar, so he poured them out after refining them a little.

There weren't many spirit stones, and only one bottle of elixir. But besides clothes and sundries, I did find a secret book of "Four Seasons Sword Technique - Sword of Spring".

Lin Changqing took a look and found that there were only six moves in total, which looked pretty good.

Let's each of us make a copy later, and send it to the Sutra Repository to expand the family heritage.

The next step was to divide the meat. There was nothing wrong with dividing the spirit stones equally. Each person got more than 400 spirit stones.

The elixirs and talismans were also distributed equally among everyone, and no one cared if there was one more or one less. If someone liked the sundries, they would take them away. If no one wanted them, they would all be exchanged for the General Affairs Hall.

The focus is on the magic weapons, there is a first-class upper-grade spirit boat, five first-class middle-grade flying swords, a top-grade wood-type flying sword, three first-class lower-grade defensive magic weapons, and three middle-grade magic weapons, but many of them are damaged. Only two are intact, and the others need to be repaired.

Lin Changhao suggested that the spirit boat should not be divided, but should be shared by everyone, so that it would be convenient for them to act together in the future.

This was a very good suggestion and was unanimously agreed upon by everyone. It was decided that Lin Changlian would keep it first.

Everyone was pushing each other for who to choose first, and finally it was agreed that Lin Changqing had made the greatest contribution and was chosen first, followed by Lin Changlian, Lin Changjie, Lin Changyuan and Lin Changhao.

In this case, Lin Changqing did not hesitate and directly chose the first-grade superior wood flying sword and the first-grade inferior defensive magic weapon. However, this inferior defensive magic weapon had to be sent for repair.

Next, everyone chose a suitable magical weapon for themselves, and the remaining magical weapons were exchanged for the General Affairs Hall.

The contribution points will be distributed to everyone in due time, and all these trivial matters will be handed over to Lin Changjie. After all, he is the eldest brother of everyone!
After the friends had eaten and drunk their fill and shared the spiritual stones and magical instruments, they said goodbye and went back contentedly.

Only then did Lin Changqing have time to fly to the Sutra Repository.
