"Boy, you are really good. You are really worthy of being your master's apprentice. You are simply carved from the same mold! Hahaha." The giant man surnamed Guo patted Chen Qian's shoulder hard, and tears burst out from laughing.

"There is a teacher and a disciple, and the like is a disciple!" The Confucian scholars from the ancient surname also laughed so hard that they fell back and forth, and almost fell off their chairs.

"How many spirit stones have been spent?" Fairy Fang tried hard to hold back her smile, leaned forward and took a jade flute and knocked on the arm of the giant man surnamed Guo who kept slapping Chen Qian's shoulders.

"Twenty." Chen Qian answered honestly. He knew that there must be something wrong with this secret, but he didn't expect that their reaction was so great.

"If I had known this, I would have seen the master after they all returned to the room." Chen Qian thought in annoyance, but it was too late to regret it now.

"Okay, you're smarter than your master. Your master spent a hundred spirit stones at the beginning." The giant man surnamed Guo retracted his hand that was hurt by Fairy Fang, but he couldn't stop smiling.

Chen Qian understood it clearly. Not only must there be problems with this secret, but his master also fell into this trap.

Chen Qian turned his gaze to Old Taoist Ping, and a curious look appeared in his eyes.

When Old Dao Ping saw Chen Qian looking at him, he couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Well, just tell me what happened to me back then."

It turned out that when he had just met the giant man surnamed Guo, he was like Shen Qian, and bought this book "Shangqing Shenyuan Jue" while shopping alone in the market. However, he spent a hundred spirit stones that year and gave almost all the spirit stones on his body to the other party.

After returning to the inn, they were usually laughed at by them for a few days, but it was precisely because of this that the relationship between the few people was closer and they became friends.

As for this book "Shangqing Shenyuan Jue", it is not fake, but it is a secret book in later generations.

There are actually two types of secrets for the cultivation world of immortal cultivation, one is the ancient secret book and the other is the secret book of later generations.

Ancient secret books refer to those passed down from ancient times. In addition to the content of the exercises, there are also special methods that can help you quickly understand the content and ensure that there is no deviation, such as the route of exercises. However, only those with spiritual roots can react, so ancient secret books are often used to detect spiritual roots.

When Chen Qian was practicing before, the white light that emitted from the martial arts book that covered him and helped him run the martial arts was the function of the ancient method.

There are books and jade pendants in ancient secrets. Ancient secrets such as "Flowing Fire Gong" are generally books, because beginners do not have the spiritual sense yet and cannot see the contents of the jade pendants and jade slips. Most of the ancient secrets such as the magical powers of the level are jade pendants.

The secret book of later generations refers to the copying of later generations of monks according to the ancient secret book. There are only some instructions and routes for exercise. Although the content is correct, it is not assisted by special ancient methods. It can be said that it is difficult to practice unless there are advanced monks who have practiced this technique at any time.

The prices of ancient secrets such as low-level martial arts and magical powers are not too different from those of later generations, because the low-level martial arts are relatively simple and there will be basically no mistakes. Moreover, even if the wrong route is used, there will be no serious consequences. It is nothing more than starting over and wasting some time.

However, high-level martial arts and magical powers have a complicated route. If you are not careful, you may become possessed by the evil spirit. At the least, your cultivation will be ruined, and at the worst, you will die. Therefore, the ancient secret books of high-level martial arts and magical powers are far from the secret books in later generations and cannot be compared.

Of course, many people in the secret books of later generations will write down their own experiences, but the efficiency of using ancient secret books is still far inferior to the efficiency of practicing.

Some people in later generations also created new martial arts and magical powers, but there were no ancient secret techniques and could only be recorded as secret books in later generations.

All of these people are masters of a generation. Many of them have created their own sects, but they have quickly weakened because the efficiency of teaching secret books in later generations was too low. If you want to learn the essence of their martial arts, you can only teach them face to face. But where did these masters have so much time to teach low-level disciples?

So when these masters die or leave, these sects soon die.

It is said that a very small number of sects with a long history are still able to use this auxiliary practice method to make ancient secrets, but it is just a legend.

Fortunately, the ancient secret books are made of special materials and are extremely difficult to damage. Both books and jade tubes are the same, so they still have not decreased over the years.

Shen Qian tried to tear a part of "Shangqing Shenyuan Jue" with his hand, and it turned out to be broken as soon as he tore it, which was completely different from "Liuhuo Gong" and "Chinyang Gong".

Speaking of which, "Shangqing Shenyuan Jue" is the most famous secret book used to deceive low-level immortal cultivators: first, its mantra is too long to be tested on the spot; second, the cultivation effect of this magical power is too tempting, so as long as people who have no experience enter the world of immortal cultivation will probably be deceived.

As for the origin of the "Shangqing Shenyuan Jue", the vulgar man did not lie to him. He was indeed brought down by people from the upper world at the time, with only the first three volumes. I heard that they were soon taken back to the upper world. What is now circulating in the world are all secret books copied by later generations.

The path of this magical power is extremely complex. It is said that those who were fortunate to obtain the original version of "Shangqing Shenyuan Jue" were not practiced even with the help of the secret book, let alone those who practiced according to the secret book of later generations. Therefore, this secret book can be said to be waste paper.

If you say that you can make secret books from later generations, you will spend seven or eight taels of silver, and some of them will be copied by the down-and-out scholars.

"No wonder Taoist Ding said in the jade tube of the relics that if the person who obtained his relics failed to practice the Qi-Wangling Art, he had to go to the market to buy the "Qi-Wangling Art". What he copied by himself was naturally the secret book of later generations, so he knew that even if he wrote the "Qi-Wangling Art", he would probably not be able to practice it." Shen Qian suddenly remembered what Taoist Ding said in the jade tube.

"Absolutely no problem, guarantee that no word is bad." Shen Qian recalled what the vulgar man said, and then realized what he meant. He couldn't help but feel so angry that he had the urge to go out to find him and beat him up.

However, Shen Qian knew that this person must have left the market, and it was useless to find him. Moreover, this vulgar man did not say that this was an ancient secret book, and he could only say that he had suffered too little experience.

Lao Dao Ping returned the "Shangqing Shenyuan Jue" to Chen Qian. Several people began to discuss why ancient secret books are so difficult to make. After a while, they had no results. They just felt that there must be some restrictions in it.
