Chapter 2 Come, let us hear what the disciple thinks.

"Hmm? What do you mean, brother?"

Tongtian looked at Taishang in confusion. Is there anything wrong with sincerely becoming his disciple?

"Too much obsession..." Yuan Shi thought: "Brother, what do you mean..."

"Didn't you notice that the merits and things Xiao Lin gained this year are basically the same?"

Tai Shang explained calmly: "From the beginning of building the house to the current flint fire...all of them are the merits gained by using acquired things to create effects similar to those caused by innate things."

"The beginning can be said to be a coincidence, but the second time, the third time, and even the tenth time now, Honghuang can no longer obtain similar merits. Don't you think Xiao Lin is being deliberate?"

It would have been better if Taishang didn't mention it. The two brothers Shici and Tongtian just realized that there was something wrong with it.

"But, this isn't a problem, right?"

Tongtian hesitated, wanting to speak up for Xiao Lin: "If I knew which path would lead to merit, I would keep doing it..."

Taishang and Yuanshi just looked at him quietly without saying anything. Tongtian couldn't say anything more and said, "Well, I can't do such a shameless thing."

“It is said that if you do good intentionally, you will not be rewarded even if it is good. If you do evil unintentionally, you will not be punished even if it is evil.”

Lao Tzu concluded: "Doing things that bring merit and creating things that bring merit should be an unintentional coincidence, or it should be a feeling of being touched and kind from the heart... Creating things just for merit, like Xiao Lin, will only cause the displeasure of the heavens! This is why after ten times, similar actions will no longer be able to gain merit."

"In fact, if Xiao Lin does the same thing again, I'm afraid karma will come to him."

Tongtian didn't speak up for Xiao Lin this time... As a Daluo Jinxian who could comprehend the Way of Heaven, he clearly understood that what Taishang said was correct! In other words, everything Xiao Lin created was of great use to the weak races in the prehistoric world, and he really did good deeds, which is why it lasted ten times... Otherwise, for his behavior of fleecing the sheep, the Way of Heaven would have brought down karma on him long ago!
(PS: Just like when Nuwa created humans, she gained great merit; when the Styx created the Asuras, merit and karma were equally shared.)
"It's just that, brother, he did all this simply because you refused to accept him as your apprentice."

It turned out that they couldn't bear to see Xiao Lin fail... The Three Pure Ones had watched him grow from a child to where he is today, and they had also tried their best to gain merits in order to become his disciple, just to be looked at with respect by the Supreme One...

How could they bear to do this when they have not yet become saints and have not even killed the three corpses?
"But he was too utilitarian in order to become my disciple. Such behavior is not in line with my Taiqing Wuwei Dao."

The Supreme sighed and pointed out the most crucial problem: that is, the Tao is not in harmony!

"Brother," at this time, Tongtian's eyes lit up: "It doesn't matter if your Wuwei lineage is not suitable, but my Shangqing lineage is suitable! Our Shangqing lineage emphasizes following one's heart... There is absolutely no problem with his changing his mind to worship me as his master..."

Yuanshi looked at his elder brother beside him, his face twitching uncontrollably, and glanced at Tongtian with pity... and then...

"Snapped!"

A carrying pole hit Tongtian's face hard, leaving two deep red marks!

"Shut up! You idiot, don't you know that obsession is the biggest obstacle for a person's practice?"

Tai Shang glared at his younger brother fiercely, then looked at Yuan Shi and said, "As a teacher, you should clear the obstacles ahead for your disciples! So, second and third brothers, I have specially developed a spell for Xiao Lin that can eavesdrop on his thoughts..."

"Big brother, I think you are just like my second brother, you are too suspicious..." Tongtian stopped talking before he could finish his words... At the entrance of the hall, Xiao Lin had already entered the hall. Looking at the three familiar figures of old, middle-aged and young in front of him, he couldn't help but feel dazed...

The old man with white hair and beard sitting in the middle is none other than Tai Shang among the Three Pure Ones... The Three Pure Ones were formed from the pure energy of Pangu, and Tai Shang represents stability and wisdom!
On the left is a middle-aged man with a stern face. He is Yuqing Yuanshi, representing rules and order. The young man on the far right is Tongtian, whom Xiao Lin is most familiar with. He has a face full of vigor and represents the youth's drive and infinite possibilities!

This is also the reason why readers of Xiao Lin’s previous life’s prehistoric novels all liked Tongtian the most!
There was just one problem. The other two were fine, just as Xiao Lin remembered...but why did Third Uncle Tongtian's face look like he was hit by a stick? The red marks wouldn't go away?
With doubts, Xiao Lin bowed to the Three Pure Ones respectfully as he usually did.

"Xiao Lin, I pay my respects to Master, and to Second and Third Uncle Masters."

"Ah."

Tai Shang nodded and motioned for Xiao Lin to stand up... By the way, he flicked his fingers and cast three spells, two of which were cast on his second and third brothers.

Yuanshi and Tongtian turned their heads and looked at their elder brother in surprise, but they didn't say much. But after Xiao Lin stood up, Tongtian couldn't wait to ask, "Xiao Lin, I heard that you created another meritorious thing?"

"Third Master, it's just drilling wood to make fire. It's just a small merit and not worth mentioning."

Xiao Lin smiled shyly, not knowing that his current psychological activities had already appeared in Sanqing's mind!
[What a joke! He made fire by drilling wood together, and became the first of the three ancestors of the human race! With such a great merit, it should satisfy Master's request, right? ]

[You know, in order to become my disciple, I have done everything I knew in my past life to gain merit! Master, I have done so much, you must accept me as your disciple, right? ]

At this moment, the Three Pure Ones were greatly shocked! The human race, the head of the Three Ancestors, the previous life... The information revealed by Xiao Lin's inner voice was so huge that the Three Pure Ones didn't know how to evaluate it for a while!

Tongtian immediately spread out his spiritual sense and contacted his elder brother and second brother... Of course, with Xiao Lin's cultivation level that was not even at the fairyland level, he naturally could not sense anything!

Tongtian: Brother, you also know about the human race and previous life?

Tai Shang: I know shit!

During the conversation with his spiritual consciousness, Tai Shang couldn't help but swear... The amount of information in the eavesdropped content was too huge, even though he was the leader of the Three Pure Ones and practiced the way of inaction, he couldn't handle it for a moment!

After all, Xiao Lin was the iron-eating beast he personally rescued! He also watched him grow up! Who could have known that he had hidden so much!

Among the Three Pure Ones, only Yuanshi could remain calm: "Don't worry, brother. It remains to be seen whether Xiao Lin has been possessed by the evil demon from outside the domain. Let's test it first."

Tai Shang: Good!

The original reminder finally calmed Tai Shang down... He looked at Xiao Lin quietly, until he felt a little scared. Then he continued to ask, "In one year, Xiao Lin, you have used acquired things to create ten things that are beneficial to the prehistoric world. Your merits are immeasurable and have greatly improved my Three Pure Ones' luck... As your master, I should reward you for your merits. What reward do you want?"

Xiao Lin's eyes lit up. Wasn't everything he did for the present moment?

"Master, I have only one request! I want to become your disciple!"
