Chapter 462: Four-Rank Adds Two People

As the first fourth-grade Dao fruit fragment that Chu Tai fully mastered, [The Taoist Youyi] and [Lord Yunzhong] can be regarded as two derivative directions of this Dao fruit fragment, and their respective abilities are also very special.

Both of them contain concepts such as unknown, secret and exploration. The first ability given to Chu Tai is the ability to hide the traces of something, making it disappear temporarily from all levels, or to temporarily hide a certain void, thereby achieving the effect of "creating" an independent void that is completely isolated from the outside world.

At the same time, this piece of fruit fragment greatly enhanced Chu Tai's grasp of destiny, raising it to a level not inferior to that of an ordinary fourth-grade cultivator of the Xuanmen sect, and strengthened Chu Tai's ability to counter outsiders' deductions of his own destiny, to a level that should be better than that of most fourth-grade cultivators.

Finally, Chu Tai also gained eighteen Jiazi, or one thousand and eighty years of cultivation, pushing his cultivation to a level close to fifty Jiazi.

This is a huge improvement for Chu Tai.

If he were alone, it would take him more than ten years just to digest the improvement in his cultivation.

But now, Chu Tai has Jinhua Cave Heaven as his backing, and the power he can mobilize to transform into cultivation must be laid for ten thousand years.

With only a thousand years of cultivation, Chu Tai would only need about half a year to completely digest it and polish it to a very refined level.

However, these improvements are only the most basic things for the different directions of the Dao Fruit fragments of [Youyi Taoist] and [Yun Zhongjun].

The relationship between [Youyi Taoist] and [Yun Zhongjun] is like that between [Sixth Rank·Yuke] who is inclined to improve the physical body and [Sixth Rank·Feixian] who is inclined to change the vital energy.

It’s just that the relationship between [Youyi Taoist] and [Yun Zhongjun] is more complicated.

[The Reclusive Taoist] tends to be human, and its external expressions include concepts such as the unknown, secrecy, and exploration, as well as wisdom, teaching, faith, and guidance.

[Yun Zhongjun] tends to be inclined towards the sky. In addition to the unknown, secrets, and exploration, he also has the ability to control the sun, moon, stars, wind, rain, thunder and lightning.

The Secret Master left behind his vital energy form, and after integrating the concept of the Dao Fruit fragments of [The Taoist of Mystery], it was refined by Chu Tai into an external incarnation. In addition to inheriting most of the abilities that the Secret Master himself possessed, it also gained bonuses in exploration, wisdom, teaching, faith and guidance.

When Chu Tai was incorporating the concept of the sixth-grade Dao Fruit fragment, he specifically chose [Feathered Guest], which was also combined with part of the blood spring power swallowed by the Secret Treasure True Man, allowing him to gain the ability to freely transform into a flying bird.

Of course, at the beginning, the incarnation has a limited number of birds that can be transformed, and most of them do not have any special abilities.

Later you will need to deduce and learn on your own, or absorb some feathers of spiritual birds to quickly master the new power.

In order to quickly improve the ability of this incarnation, Chu Tai took out some feathers of exotic beasts from Jinhua Cave and placed them in front of the incarnation. As the faint blood light rose, the figure in the black robe turned into a crane.

With a shake of its body, the black and white crane feathers fell off, and before they hit the ground, they turned into flowing spots of light, and a yellow bird flew out from the illusory crane.

Chu Tai stretched out his hand, but before he touched the bird, the light spots around it suddenly burned up again, and the yellow bird elongated and turned into a phoenix flying around him.

Seeing this scene, Chu Tai's mouth curled up slightly, praising the incarnation's control of power.

Then he saw his incarnation use the Wanfa Ruyi Mantra very cleverly, and coordinated with the various flying birds he had transformed into, to transform into the images of many spiritual birds. Then, through the talents of these birds, he mastered some of the abilities of [Yun Zhongjun] that still remained in Chu Tai's hands.

Sensing the other party's changes, Chu Tai took the opportunity to open up the essence of the Dao Fruit fragments he possessed, as well as some of the concepts of [Yun Zhongjun] to him.

"Your current foundation is based on the vital energy form left by the Secret Treasure Master, combined with the power of the [Youyi Taoist] that I separated with the Spirit Embryo Method, and also carries part of the concept of [Yun Zhongjun]. In the future, you will be named Yun Zhongjun. Of course, for a short period of time, you can still carry out external activities as the Secret Treasure Master."

Yun Zhongjun looked at Chu Tai and said with a smile, "You want me to act as Yan Tian Sect? That's good. I can help you attract some attention and save those people from Wutai and Emei from staring at you." Chu Tai did not answer immediately. Instead, he took Yun Zhongjun to the place where Yan Tian Sect enshrined the ancestors of all generations. He let go of the Mi Luo umbrella in his hand, took out the incense, lit it, and worshiped. Then he turned around and said, "Not only do I want you to act as this, but I also hope that you can continue this lineage."

As soon as Chu Tai finished speaking, layer upon layer of halos suddenly emerged from the rising green smoke, with many secret scriptures flowing out from them and merging into Yun Zhongjun's brows.

Yun Zhongjun closed his eyes and slowly digested the many inheritances of the Yantian Sect that he had obtained. After thinking for a while, he stepped forward and kowtowed to the ancestors of the Yantian Sect, indicating that he would pass on the lineage.

Somehow, Chu Tai felt a new Taiyi Immortal Sect's luck rising, and the power he controlled increased slightly again.

At the same time, Yun Zhongjun's power and status were further consolidated, ensuring that he could exert the combat power of a fourth-grade celestial being when he went out, while also ensuring that he had the combat power of a fourth-grade celestial being for many years in the Yantian Sect's cave.

"Then I'll leave the rest of this here to you, fellow Daoist. I'll go back and take care of other things first."

Chu Tai picked up the Miro Umbrella again and returned to the Jinhua Cave.

As early as when Chu Tai connected the two caves, Shi Huajin felt something was wrong. When he saw the Dongyuan Palace open again, he rushed in hurriedly.

Just as he was about to speak, Shi Huajin stood there in a daze. Bai Yihong, Yu Lisou and others who had come from behind saw Shi Huajin blocking the way and could not help but urge him.

Shi Huajin finally reacted, straightened his robes, walked in and said respectfully: "Congratulations to the master for his success in cultivation and attaining the status of a celestial being."

The five people behind were stunned for a moment, and then looked at Chu Tai who walked out, feeling the unusual aura from him, and showed surprised expressions.

Chu Tai originally relied on the power of the cave heaven to be able to compete with the fourth grade. Now that he himself has entered the fourth grade, it means that Jinhua Sect is safer and the sect's inheritance is worry-free.

The five people were surprised and delighted, and they came forward to congratulate him, their joy was beyond words.

"I only relied on external forces to temporarily gain the fourth-grade cultivation. I am still some distance away from becoming a celestial being."

Chu Tai first said a few words modestly, then informed everyone that Yantian Sect would be reopened, and said that he had previously contacted the inheritor of Yantian Sect.

"Except for this fourth-rank cultivator like me who took advantage of the situation, our Taiyi Immortal Sect will have another fourth-rank cultivator. This will give us more confidence when we face the two alliances of Emei and Wutai in the future."

Upon hearing this, Shi Huajin and the others, who had been feeling a little disappointed because Chu Tai had not yet truly achieved the fourth rank, became excited again.

But soon, Shi Huajin thought of another thing. Now the luck of Taiyi Immortal Sect is concentrated in Jinhua Sect, but Jinhua Sect does not have a true fourth-grade cultivator. Instead, there is a fourth-grade celestial being in charge of the sect that reappeared later. If this continues, the luck may shift, and there may even be internal strife in Taiyi Immortal Sect.

When he thought of this, Shi Huajin's joy was replaced by worry.

Seeing this, Chu Tai asked about the other party's concerns. Shi Huajin did not hide anything and directly told his thoughts to several colleagues.

Yu Lisou and the others frowned upon hearing this: "This is really a troublesome problem. If it is not handled properly, it may cause all our previous efforts to fail. What do you think, Sect Leader?"

Chu Tai heard this and said with a smile: "You don't have to worry too much about this matter. A considerable part of our current destiny comes from the Lingtai Method. If they can't find a better substitute, they can't affect our destiny. In addition, I have a very pleasant conversation with the inheritor of Yantian Sect and have formed an offensive and defensive alliance. I have a good relationship with the head of Kanyou Sect and we can take care of each other. As for fellow Taoist Ling Miao of the Snow Mountain Sect, even if he really has such an idea, he must first change his fundamental method..."
