Chapter 650: Asking the Secret Method of Xiaxia Gorge

Ten days later, Shang Zhu, Yin Ran and Shou Ling came to the place where Dongjun's incarnation was in seclusion on a cloud of light. Looking at the Taiyi Yujing Danque Jinhua Miaoqi flowing around the periphery, their eyes lit up slightly.

"This senior Dongjun's cultivation is becoming more and more profound and unfathomable. He has some of the aura of the previous sect leader. I think it won't be long before our Jinhua Sect will have four fourth-grade celestial beings, including the sect leader, Senior Shao Siming, Senior Dongjun, and Senior Brother Shi Huajin, in charge. In the Central Plains, it can be regarded as a first-class sect."

Shou Ling looked a little excited, but Yin Ran beside him didn't think so. He shook his head and said, "Shou Ling, your thinking was fine a hundred years ago, because our sect is in Central Shenzhou, too close to the dynasty, and we must consider their ideas. It's not good to leave too many fourth-rank seniors in the sect."

"But now the collision is imminent in two days, and the four celestial beings may not be able to protect the sect. If we have the ability, we should improve our cultivation as soon as possible. If the three of us achieve the fourth rank, or the four of Dong Cang achieve the fourth rank, or the five of Yu Lisou achieve the fourth rank, we can form a formation and have a greater chance of protecting the sect's inheritance."

Hearing this, Shou Ling frowned and said, "All three of us can become fourth-grade? Or Dong Cang, Yu Lisou and other fellow practitioners can become fourth-grade. This is too difficult. I think that even if the master can achieve third-grade, I may not be able to achieve fourth-grade. Similarly, Dong Cang, Yu Lisou and other fellow practitioners should also have similar problems."

At this point, Shou Ling shrugged and said, "Let's not talk about the long term. Even among the three of us, Shang Zhu is the most likely to achieve a fourth-grade celestial being, but it will take her at least four to five years."

Just as Shou Ling finished speaking, Shang Zhu interrupted and said, "I have observed Senior Dongjun's power and Grandmaster Taiyi's aura before, and I have a feeling that if everything goes well, I will be able to break through within three years. If I have the support of the sect, I am confident that I can achieve my own Dao fruit within two years."

"Okay, even if you can achieve celestial being in one year, what about Yin Ran and I? Dong Cang, Yu Lisou and some of the other nine have cultivation levels that are only a step lower than yours right now. In this special situation, it is impossible for them not to accept the sect's qi support. Once one of them is close to becoming a fourth-grade celestial being and needs the sect's qi support, then Yin Ran and I will not be able to achieve fourth-grade celestial being as quickly as possible. It will take a long time."

When Yin Ran heard what Shou Ling said, he also sighed. He knew what Shou Ling meant and understood that there was nothing wrong with what he said.

For example, Yin Ran himself is confident that he can achieve a fourth-grade celestial being within thirty to forty years, but this time is at least half a century. If he wants to achieve it faster, he will need the help of the sect's luck and resources.

Among them, resources are easy to deal with. Judging from Chu Tai's performance so far, as long as the sect has it, he will get it if he wants it. The only problem is the sect's luck. It is not good to consume too much of it at one time. This means that the sect can only help one cultivator to achieve a fourth-grade celestial being at most within a period of time.

According to the current fortune of Jinhua Sect, after supporting Shi Huajin's breakthrough, there will need to be a buffer of about half a year to a year before they can continue to support new disciples. Then, depending on the depth of cultivation and talent of the twelve suitable disciples, it will take another two to ten years for them to break through.

According to this data, even if it was the smallest group of three, the Smoldering Trio, with full support for their practice, it would take at least fifteen to twenty years before all members could achieve the status of fourth-grade celestial beings.

If the smoldering or vigil delays the process even a little, this time may have to be extended by more than ten years, and by then there will not be much time left before the collision in two days.

The most troublesome thing is that all of this is calculated based on the most favorable situation. Once the situation in Middle-earth or the Central Plains changes in the next two days, their progress in cultivation will inevitably be affected.

Thinking of this, Yin Ran sighed again. Shang Zhu beside her didn't know how to comfort her. She opened her mouth, but the words were stuck in her throat. However, below, the sound of Dongjun's laughter came from the place where his incarnation was practicing.

"That's why Taining wanted me to lead you here to seize the secret treasure of Emei Sect. As long as we gather this part of Emei Sect's luck, we should be able to immediately provide Shang Zhu with energy for his breakthrough. If we're lucky, we can even leave some for the next person to break through. If things go well on the other side as well, it's not impossible to support two people in a short period of time."

As the words fell, Chu Tai suddenly appeared beside the three people. He looked at them and asked, "Why are you here now? Is there any problem with Zikong Palace?"

"It's not Zikong Palace, but Brother Weng from Wenxia Gorge who came to our door." Chu Tai was stunned for a moment and didn't react. He asked curiously, "How did he find us?"

"Fellow Daoist Weng came to visit us three days ago. He said that when he entered the East China Sea, he sensed the power of the Sovereign Demon Dao and came to help. Although we explained to him that you have suppressed the problem, he still seems a little worried. We were afraid that he would affect your practice, so we didn't bring him to see you. Now that you have come out of retreat, why not meet him?"

"fair enough."

Chu Tai nodded in agreement, carried Yun Guang and the other three away, said hello to Taoist Xun Ling and Fairy Guangze first, and then met Weng Jie Guo.

As soon as he saw Chu Tai, Weng Jieguo showed a surprised expression.

"Strange, I can't even sense any trace of Junmo on you."

Hearing this, Chu Tai knew something was wrong. He looked at Weng Jieguo and said, "May I ask, Brother Weng, what are the traces of the Lord Demon you mentioned?"

"These are the traces left by Junmo Jiezhou's Law and Principle Dao Fruit. According to the records in Wenxia Gorge, Junmo's power is very special. Anyone who has come into contact with his power, or has cultivated Junmo Dao to the fourth-grade heavenly realm, will have some traces of him left on their body."

"This trace is very strange. It is not true Qi, nor is it force. It is a concept similar to fate. It can make it easier for people to come into contact with the things of the Sovereign Demon Dao, and at the same time, it will be easier for them to identify with the philosophy of the Sovereign Demon Dao, and then be influenced by the Sovereign Demon Dao."

Hearing this, everyone except Chu Tai showed surprise. Weng Jieguo looked at Chu Tai and said, "You really noticed something."

"I am not very clear about the characteristics of this trace. It's just that when I was using the power of the Taiyi Patriarch to suppress my own changes, I vaguely saw something that did not belong to me. Now I have suppressed it with the help of the Patriarch's power."

Chu Tai's answer was rather ambiguous, and Weng Jieguo was not surprised; instead, he thought it was very normal.

"As expected, you borrowed the power of Master Taiyi. In fact, the way we deal with it in Xiaxia is to borrow the power of Master Yuli or Master Hunyuan to suppress the trace. Since you have borrowed the power of Master Taiyi to suppress it, there shouldn't be too many problems. However, according to the records, Junmo's power is very strange, and the trace seems to have been tainted with his characteristics, and it feels quite cunning, and it often breaks free from the suppression. You can use this method to observe it at all times to prevent accidents."

After saying this, Weng Jieguo taught Chu Tai a magic trick.

After listening to a few words, Chu Tai knew that what Weng Jieguo was talking about was not simply a method of observation, but he intended to take this opportunity to teach him the method of suppression in Wenxia Gorge.

After expressing his gratitude, Chu Tai took careful notes and checked it himself in front of Weng Jieguo to reassure him, then casually asked him about the purpose of his visit to the East China Sea.
