I Can Recognize Everything, But the Information is Wrong

The magic bird circled in the sky and finally, under the fat man's command, dove towards a hanging waterfall.

Tian Lin and his companions jumped off the back of the magic bird, while Tian Lin paid with spirit stones, he asked the man:

"Do you know how to get to the Wendaos Sect?"

"This area is all part of the Dao Seeking Mountain range, but outsiders never find their way in. Even if you see immortal disciples of the Wendaos Sect coming and going, others will not attend to you.

Though I travel here often, I too cannot find the entrance to the Wendaos Sect."

Having received the spirit stones, the fat man climbed back onto the bird, cupped his hands towards Tian Lin, and said atop the magic bird: "I must return now, wishing you, Taoist friend, to find your fate with the immortals soon."

With a signal, the magic bird leaped from the hanging waterfall and flapped its wings, disappearing into the high sky.

Only after the fat man had left did Cui'er speak:

"The Dao Seeking Mountain range is a complex maze of peaks, too numerous to count. Others have searched for over a thousand years without finding the way in, can the three of us really find it?"

Yu'er didn't know why Tian Lin insisted on going to the Wendaos Sect to seek immortality, but since Tian Lin had made up his mind, she was prepared to endure hardship alongside him for a hundred years.

After all, her cultivation only promised her a lifespan of less than two hundred years to live.

"Let's find a person who lives in the mountains and ask about the Wendaos Sect. As for how to find the mountain gate of the Wendaos Sect, I don't think it will be too difficult."

Yu'er and her sister did not know where his confidence came from, but seeing Tian Lin already rising on his flying sword, they both quickly followed Tian Lin on their own flying swords.

When they caught up with Tian Lin, he was already standing on a huge boulder, having landed his flying sword.

Below the boulder and on the slope of the mountain, there was a thatched cottage built along its side.

Yu'er and her sister glanced over at the old man outside the cottage, puzzled as to why Tian Lin was paying such close attention to him.

Tian Lin looked away from the wood-chopping old man, sighed, and said: "This North Wilderness is indeed a place filled with a multitude of demon beasts."

Yu'er found it hard to believe and said to Tian Lin, "Are you saying that old man is a cultivator who transformed from a demon beast?"

Tian Lin nodded and said:

"The majority of those seeking immortality around here are not human but demons. Perhaps because Dao Seeking Mountain range is near the Demon Domain, or maybe because the Wendaos Sect does not discriminate in its recruitment. Thus, there are actually more demons coming here in pursuit of immortality than humans."

He had eaten the True Eye Fruit which gave him the ability to discern true from false.

What looked like an old man to others, appeared as a purple-aura monkey to him.

However, this purple-aura monkey could split wood and cook his own food, and he could speak like a human and call others brothers, saying he's a human was not entirely wrong either.

"How does the master plan to enter the Wendaos Sect?"

Impatient as Cui'er was, she was still surprised that the old man on the slope was a demon and not a human.

But for her, finding a way into the Wendaos Sect was of greater interest than this spectacle.

"The Beast Tamer who brought us here said that immortal disciples from the Wendaos Sect often appear in the Dao Seeking Mountain range. We just need to stay here and we'll eventually encounter a disciple of the Wendaos Sect. Then we can ask them to lead us inside the mountain gate."

Tian Lin's words sounded like a joke because the fat man had said that these immortal disciples would not bother with others.

Thus, hoping for these disciples to guide someone inside was wishful thinking.

Seeing Cui'er about to speak again, Yu'er sternly glared at her and said, "Enough. Go chop some wood; we need to build a shelter for the master."

She believed Tian Lin was not an unreliable person. Since he had a plan, all she and her sister had to do was to patiently follow him, taking good care of him.

Cui'er, indeed, said no more. She took her sword into the forest and quickly cut down some trees.

Now possessing Qi Refinement at the ninth level, cutting wood to build a shelter was not difficult for her.

With the help of Yu'er, a modest shelter with leaves for a roof appeared out of thin air.

As sword holders, the things they carried with them were mostly for serving Tian Lin, including bedding and food.

Fortunately, people often died in the Immortal Sinking Pond, and they kept two unsold storage bags. Tian Lin had given those bags to them, allowing them to bring enough furniture and utensils.

In no time, this mountaintop had a wooden hut and a picket fence courtyard wall, and from the temporary kitchen built next to the hut, the scent of cooked millet porridge wafted out.

The old monkey demon, transformed into a human at mid-mountain, seemed to smell something, raising his head and looking in the vicinity of Tian Lin.

Tian Lin stood on the rock and cupped his hands towards the Monkey Demon, who after some thought, walked up with large strides, his body swaying back and forth.

At first, when Tian Lin said the old man was a transformed Monkey Demon, Cui'er was somewhat skeptical.

But now, watching the posture of the old man walking, she was completely convinced.

The Monkey Demon, dressed in tattered clothes, cupped hands from a distance towards Tian Lin: "The humble one pays respects to the noble neighbor."

Tian Lin returned the gesture and invited the Monkey Demon into the courtyard, saying, "Taoist Hou, please forgive my lack of welcoming you from afar. Come into my courtyard and have a cup of tea before we talk."

Hearing Tian Lin's words, the Monkey Demon did not put on airs and promptly entered the courtyard.

Yu'er and her sister saw a demon transform into a human shape for the first time, and they were somewhat curious.

But she hid her curiosity well, and it was not until the Monkey Demon had taken a seat in the courtyard that she brought the rice porridge to the table.

The Monkey Demon was clearly attracted by the aroma of the porridge. He looked at the sweet porridge and, after taking a sniff, said, "This porridge is delicious. Can I trade Monkey Wine for it?"

"Monkey Wine?"

Tian Lin was puzzled, but the Monkey Demon had already taken off the wine gourd from his waist.

Yu'er hurriedly brought over two cups, and as the Monkey Demon tilted the wine gourd, the greenish liquor with a fruity fragrance quickly filled one of the cups.

Tian Lin noticed that the prompt indicated that this "Divine Blessing Flake" was an auxiliary substance for practicing the Divine Travel Technique.

He had no idea what the Divine Travel Technique was, so he didn't particularly crave the Monkey Wine.

"If fellow Daoist Hou likes to drink it, we can share what we have in the future."

The Monkey Demon was thrilled and pushed a gourd full of wine to Tian Lin, grabbing a bowl of porridge and spoon and started to eat.

"This Monkey Wine is no ordinary item; it aids in cultivating the Monkey God Technique."

Tian Lin did not know what the Monkey God Technique was either, but remembered the dog demon 'Senior Brother' from the illusion. The dog demon Senior Brother was practicing a Demon Art, and that art could only be practiced by canine creatures.

Therefore, Tian Lin said, "This Monkey God Technique must have quite stringent requirements for cultivation, right?"

The Monkey Demon replied, "How could it be stringent? If fellow Daoist wants to learn it, I can teach you this Divine Skill. It is a top-grade Divine Skill, close to a Spell of the Dao."

The Monkey Demon's generosity surprised Tian Lin.

He looked at the Yu'er sisters and thought that the Monkey Wine might be useless for him, but it could be just right for them.

Without a second thought, Tian Lin immediately said, "If fellow Daoist Hou is willing to impart the technique, that would be most wonderful."

The Monkey Demon was straightforward and pressed a finger to Tian Lin's forehead.

In Tian Lin's Sea of Consciousness, a monkey with shining eyes and an iron rod emerged, smashing the rod towards the sky.

With that strike, the daylight shattered. And with the daylight shattering, the entire galaxy was illuminated in an instant.

Although this scene appeared in Tian Lin's Sea of Consciousness, he instinctively squinted his eyes, fearing the strong light would blind him.

But he soon opened his eyes wide, because at the instant the strong light illuminated the galaxy, he saw figures moving on countless planets.

He saw one planet that looked very much like the moon.

Unfortunately, these visions all flashed by and quickly vanished from Tian Lin's Sea of Consciousness.

Silent, the Monkey Demon proudly said, "How is it? Isn't the Monkey God Technique impressive? This is—legend has it—it was created by the Monkey Ancestor, capable of staking heaven and earth with one rod."

Tian Lin smiled, decided not to dwell on the scenes he had previously seen in his mind, and said to the Monkey Demon:

"Fellow Daoist is mistaken, I didn't cook this rice porridge. So, if you want to trade for the porridge, you'll have to make a deal with these two ladies."

His intention was for the Monkey Demon to pass on the Monkey God Technique to Yu'er and Cui'er.

Would anyone else teach a Divine Skill for just a bowl of rice porridge?

But this Monkey Demon was different, he seemed very generous.

He promptly touched Yu'er and Cui'er's foreheads with his finger, and after they opened their eyes from meditation, he said, "I've had my share of rice porridge, but none compare to the deliciousness of what these two ladies make. What's the logic behind that?"

Yu'er said, "Senior does not know that this rice porridge recipe is my Tong Family's secret, with a unique blend of medicinal ingredients, so naturally, its flavor is different."

After finishing the porridge, the Monkey Demon did not intend to stay any longer. He stood up and saluted Tian Lin, "If I want to exchange for more porridge, I will come here to find fellow Daoist, and I hope fellow Daoist won't find me bothersome."

Tian Lin laughed and said, "Others call me a gourmand because I have an extraordinary fondness for food. Since fellow Daoist is also of my way, there is no need for such courtesies."

After sending off the Monkey Demon, he turned to Yu'er and Cui'er and asked, "Did you see the moon in your Sea of Consciousness?"

Yu'er and Cui'er were both a bit bewildered and shook their heads, "We only saw a divine monkey brandishing a stick among the mountains, we didn't see any moon."

Hearing this, Tian Lin was taken aback, as neither seemed to be lying.

At this moment, worry showed on Yu'er's face, and even Tian Lin began to wonder if he was going mad.

Hearing that strange woman's voice in the void was one thing, but now seeing the moon and endless void, as well as the figures on each planet, was another—especially since the Yu'er sisters who experienced what he did, did not see what he had seen.

"Perhaps it's just because I've been under too much pressure lately."

Tian Lin swept up the wine gourd on the table, which fell directly into Yu'er's hands.

"I already possess the Heavenly Water Breathing Technique; it would be best for the two of you sisters to cultivate this Monkey God Technique."

Yu'er was shocked and said, "Master, although you possess the Divine Skills of the Heavenly Water Breathing Technique, you do not have the auxiliary elixirs for it. Both being top-grade Divine Skills, why not cultivate the Monkey God Technique? With the assistance of the Monkey Wine, the cultivation of the Monkey God Technique should not be difficult."

Tian Lin shook his head, he was cultivating the Heavenly Water Breathing Technique to develop his Dharma Body.

Even though the Monkey God Technique could also develop a Dharma Body, it was not a Five Elements Dharma Body, and so could not forge a Golden Core through the Five Elements.
