Chapter 231 What a fine fellow Daoist!

"Huh, this Xuan Yin Scripture actually has so many exquisite methods? It's practically an encyclopedia of the demonic path."

"And this Azure Origin Sword Technique not only has the ability to circumvent the three-stage Core Formation, but also the Great Geng Sword Formation, which refines thirty-six sets of flying swords and uses the power of the sword formation to overcome superior forces?! Did the sect leader defeat his enemies with this sword formation? A sword formation that can be set up by one person, tsk tsk, truly exquisite!"

"This Buddhist cultivation method is truly remarkable! It actually allows one to directly cultivate to the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm, and it contains all the great Buddhist supernatural powers..."

Man Hu Zi and Qing Yi were both amazed.

Gan Rushuang, Yuan Yao, and Yan Li were also quite shocked.

"Sect Master, are you serious?"

You didn't hold anything back at all?

"You are all the earliest elders of my Xuantian Sect, so I naturally have no reason to hold back. If I were to keep things from you, how could the Xuantian Sect ever be called the 'Gateway to the Dao'? How could it accept both the righteous and demonic paths?"

"Furthermore, the Great Evolution Technique of this Divine Sense method is incomplete. I only have the first four levels. The last three levels have been lost; otherwise, it would have been a top-tier technique."

Han Li smiled smugly.

Upon seeing this, the colors in the eyes of Man Huzi and Qing Yi changed one after another.

They were truly shocked and moved.

At last.

The bearded man reached into his storage pouch and, with some hesitation, pulled out a jade slip:

"Ahem, these are the final three moves of the 'Heavenly Demon Art.' However, even I, Man, haven't mastered a single move yet, and I wonder what level of cultivation is required to learn them? I was initially reluctant to reveal them because I worried that future generations might try to do too much and end up hindering their own cultivation..."

Barbarian Beard tried to justify his hoarding of secrets.

The reasoning is acceptable.

Of course, anyone who isn't a fool wouldn't believe it.

Han Li took the jade slip, examined it, and his lips twitched:
"The Grand Elder is so considerate of the younger generation of disciples; he truly has a lot of good intentions."

"Sect Master, you are truly an upright person."

Qingyi stroked his beard and praised.

"Hmph, Qingyi, what about you? Don't tell me you didn't hold anything back."

Barbarian Beard gave a soft snort.

This old ghost actually said that the sect leader is an upright person.

Does that mean he's not straightforward?
If we're talking about the most cunning of the three, it's probably you, Qingyi!
The old man in the blue robe immediately spread his hands, revealing nothing, and a wry smile appeared on his face:

"Compared to the two of you, my inheritance is truly insignificant. It has already reached the limit of my cultivation, allowing me to reach the mid-Nascent Soul stage. There are really no further methods to follow."

"but…"

After much deliberation, Qing Yi finally took out a jade slip:

"My method of concealment and stealth is passable. Against cultivators of the same level, I can even get within 30 or 40 feet before being discovered."

Han Li took the jade slip and glanced at it, his eyes narrowing slightly!
This method of concealment and stealth is indeed remarkable, possessing an excellent effect in disguising one's movements.

Could it be that Qingyi relied on this method to silently follow Jiyin without being detected in the original trajectory?
He remembered that Qingyi was almost within 30 feet of the original body of the Extreme Yin before the Extreme Yin Old Demon sensed him.

It's important to understand that among the early-stage Nascent Soul cultivators, Ji Yin's spiritual sense wasn't weak. Yet, Qing Yi still managed to get within such a dangerous distance of him. This demonstrates just how powerful this method of concealment and stealth truly is.

The distance of a mere thirty or forty feet was covered right under the noses of a high-level cultivator.

But Qingyi is still able to lie low and move stealthily.

"What an exquisite stealth technique."

"When flying at high speed, it can be completely silent, and the resulting ripples are even lighter than a gentle breeze..."

"No wonder cultivators of the same level couldn't detect it."

After comparing the two, Han Li was quite certain that Qing Yi's stealth technique was far superior to his own invisible escape technique.

The Invisibility Technique can be upgraded.

If this could be combined with the "Nameless Concealing Breath Technique" and the "Fragment of the Silk Handkerchief Magic Treasure," it would be incredibly effective at ambushing people of the same level.

Coincidentally, his fighting style is more like that of an old ghost than the wide-open, sweeping style of a barbarian.

He is destined to receive this teaching.

"By the way, Second Elder, why doesn't your stealth technique have a name?"

"I discovered this when I was reading extensively back then. At that time, I was just a lowly Foundation Establishment cultivator who was fortunate enough to find the storage bag of the sole heir of a declining sect. Inside the storage bag were a vast collection of artifacts that sect had gathered from ancient times to the present..."

In many cases, Qingyi didn't go into details and omitted them, and Han Li and Man Huzi didn't ask any further questions.

Everyone has their own little secrets.

Not to mention the secrets of someone's past that involve defying fate.

"That's it?"

Barbarian Beard blinked.

His eyes seemed to say, "Is this all you've been hiding?"

Upon hearing this, Qing Yi rolled his eyes at the bearded man:
"I, Qing, always have some decent things to offer, Elder, you should be content."

The three fell silent for a moment, then stared at each other in disbelief.

Han Li was the most impressed.

It has to be him; he's magnanimous and loyal. That's how he won over the barbarian and Qing Yi.

Otherwise, how could these two possibly use their best skills?

Ok.

If the two of them keep hiding their true abilities and don't show him anything that satisfies him, he won't pay any more attention to them, let alone take them to Tiannan to seek opportunities.

His "sincerity" also requires an equal response of sincerity.

...

The Xuantian Sect initially established "two academies, eleven halls, and one pavilion".

They are:
The Elders' Council houses all Nascent Soul and Core Formation cultivators and is responsible for distributing benefits to all high-ranking cultivators within the sect.

The welfare home is where sects issue missions and collect cultivation resources.

In the Body Refinement Hall, Elder Barbarian Beard is temporarily acting as the hall master, teaching the body refinement methods.

In the Transmission Hall, Second Elder Qingyi temporarily serves as the hall master, guiding the Core Formation stage cultivators within the sect.

The Sutra Repository houses various traditional texts and is overseen by Gan Rushuang.

Dingling Hall is the place where alchemy is passed down, and it is also the cultivation base for spiritual herbs and medicines of the sect and the refining base for various elixirs.

The Thousand Machines Hall inherits the puppetry techniques of the Thousand Bamboo Sect and the later puppet soul-binding techniques.

Leiyin Hall inherits the ancient Buddhist and Taoist traditions.

Tianluo Hall is a Confucian and Taoist institution that inherits the teachings of Wanfamen.

The Spirit Control Hall inherits the Beast Taming Techniques and the Five Elements Spirit Infant Techniques of the Spirit Control Sect.

The Divine Weapon Hall inherits the forging techniques of the Divine Weapon Sect and various magical treasures and ancient artifacts. It will also collect various forging techniques in the future.

The Heavenly Array Hall inherits the ancient art of array formation.

The Heavenly Talisman Hall inherits the Heavenly Talisman Sect's talisman system and the ancient jade talisman system.

The Xuanjian Pavilion inherits the Qingyuan Sword Dao of the Xuanjian Sect and will collect various other sword techniques in the future.

The final Wanmiao Tower is the sect's matchmaking agency.

Wonderful, wonderful…

Wonderful.

The female disciples trained by Wanmiaolou are all skilled in playing musical instruments, chess, calligraphy, painting, and singing.

Below the two courtyards, eleven halls, and one pavilion, the Seven Seas Chamber of Commerce was established.

These correspond to the seven major sea areas in the human realm.

The Five Dragons Sea, the Chaotic Star Sea, the Tian Sha Continent Sea, the Boundless Sea of ​​the Future, the Arctic Ice Sea, the Southeast Sea of ​​the Great Jin Dynasty, the Southwest Sea of ​​the Great Jin Dynasty, and several sea areas between the Chaotic Star Sea.

In addition, depending on future financial resources, it is expected that hundreds or even thousands of affiliated branches similar to the White Water Sword Sect will be established.

Ling Xiaofeng's move was brilliant.

Unfortunately, the plan was ruined because of the cultivation of the Yuan Magnetic Divine Light.

Above the two courtyards, eleven halls, and one pavilion, the Inspectorate and the Hall of Military Merit were established, which were responsible only to the sect leader.

The duties of the Inspectorate are, as the name suggests, similar to those of the Embroidered Uniform Guard in mortal dynasties.

The Hall of Merit is used to tally merits, which are then exchanged for various resources and treasures stored in the sect's treasury.

At last.

He also plans to establish the Temple of War and the Temple of Demon Taming.

The Temple of War, weapons of war against external forces.

A force of cultivators trained by the sect.

It is controlled by the lineage of the sect leader.

As for the Demon Taming Hall? Its future mission is to collect demonic energy from the human realm and then cleverly utilize the demonic energy from the Demon Abyss, and even the true demonic energy.

"The demonic energy of the Demon Abyss is indeed hateful, causing the cultivation environment in this world to deteriorate day by day."

"But if the cultivators of this realm strive for excellence, they might be able to turn waste into treasure." The environment, dense with demonic energy, can actually be utilized.

For example, planting rare spiritual herbs with both spiritual and demonic attributes.

This kind of spiritual herb is extremely rare and precious in both the Demon Realm and the Spirit Realm. It is effective not only for Nascent Soul cultivators with certain special cultivation techniques, but also for Void Refinement cultivators. The original body, who was in the late-stage Integration Realm, and several other Integration Realm cultivators who infiltrated the Demon Realm with the original body had collected some.

Its value is even higher than that of the spiritual herbs cultivated in the Spirit Garden of this Realm.

Unfortunately, they can only grow in the demon realm.

Only the demon realm can provide an environment where "spiritual energy and demonic energy can coexist".

Although this world suffered from the ancient demonic calamity, it also created an environment where demonic energy and spiritual energy coexisted for survival and reproduction.

In a sense, it can be described as "uniquely blessed".

If it were truly possible to cultivate a rare spiritual herb with both spiritual and demonic attributes in this realm, those so-called big shots in Tianyuan City would probably be restless.

Some practitioners of special techniques will try every means to re-establish contact with this world.

Because the cost is nothing compared to the continuous benefits.

of course.

Even if the human cultivators in the spirit realm don't recognize its value, his descendants can just enjoy it all by themselves.

He has no intention of passing on the Brahma Saint True Demon Technique to outsiders.

Therefore, if we look at it indirectly:
The Demon Abyss, with its demonic energy, is actually a treasure of this world! It's an opportunity that the Demon Realm painstakingly brought to this world!
It's just that over tens of thousands of years, none of the rising stars in this world have been able to make use of this.

What he needs to do is ascend to the Spirit Realm in the future, and when his cultivation is complete, send the spirit medicine seeds with both spiritual and demonic attributes to the lower realm.

"We cultivators can't get help from those old guys in Tianyuan City of the Spirit Realm, so we can only use our own brains."

"When cultivation techniques that combine spiritual and demonic elements appear among the human race, those so-called dross become the true essence..."

...

Two years later.

Off the sea.

The waters around Qiyuan Island.

The Miaoyin Sect has already established itself here.

On this day, Han Li, disguised and only showing his mid-stage Core Formation cultivation, paid a visit and met with the Right Envoy of the Myriad Sounds Sect, who was in charge of Qiyuan Island affairs.

"This humble servant is Zhuo Ruting, and greets you, senior."

Han Li nodded.

After some pleasantries, he got straight to the point:
"I've heard that your sect has a Foundation Establishment stage female cultivator nicknamed 'Moon Fairy,' with a face as warm as jade and skin as white as snow, making her another beauty second only to your sect's Purple Spirit Fairy. I wonder if Fellow Daoist Zhuo could introduce us?"

"Are you referring to my disciple, Wen Siyue, senior?"

"Yes, her name is indeed Wen Siyue."

"Please wait a moment, senior. I will send someone to fetch her."

As a mid-stage Core Formation cultivator, Zhuo Ruting was someone she couldn't afford to offend.

Therefore, it did not cause any trouble.

Soon, Han Li saw his target.

"Siyue greets Senior."

Wen Siyue truly lived up to the description in the book: her face was as warm as jade, and her skin as white as snow. Her figure was distinctly voluptuous, yet surprisingly graceful and alluring. Her voice was incredibly sweet, melting one's bones upon hearing it. Every movement she made exuded extreme charm; she was born with a seductive allure.

This woman joined the Miaoyin Sect at a very young age, and even without his intervention, she miraculously survived a sect plot during the opening of the Void Heaven Palace. It's hard to say whether to call her lucky or... unlucky.

"Is your father Wen Qiang?"

"Eh? Senior, do you know my father?"

The timid young woman suddenly looked up in surprise.

"There is a slight connection between them."

After all, he was just a random friend of the original owner:
"How is your father?"

"My father died at the hands of several cultivators more than 30 years ago while protecting me."

The accomplices were none other than the Miaoyin Sect.

"do you died?"

Right.

Those plotting against Wen Siyue were certain individuals from the Miaoyin Sect. Their aim was to make Wen Siyue obedient and stop her from acting like a stubborn mule. In the Miaoyin Sect, there was no reason to feign innocence. And to make Wen Siyue obedient, eliminating Wen Qiang, a mid-Foundation Establishment cultivator, and depriving her of her only support was a crucial step.

It's not very difficult.

In the original timeline, thanks to his intervention, Wen Qiang and his daughter Wen Siyue temporarily escaped that group. However, Wen Qiang later disappeared.

It's obvious who did this.

"Do you have a Daoist partner now?"

"Senior, this humble servant..."

"Does this senior have feelings for my Siyue?"

Zhuo Ruting suddenly interjected, her eyes lighting up.

Han Li smiled but remained noncommittal.

He then sent a telepathic message to Wen Siyue:

"Do you want to completely break away from the Myriad Sounds Sect?"

After a moment's thought, Wen Siyue hesitated. She wasn't sure if the person in front of her was someone her master, Zhuo Ruting, had sent to test her. She feared that if she made a careless move, she would fall into an even worse trap.

She was scared.

After losing her father's support, she had to be even more cautious, lest she give the others in the family any ammunition or leverage against her.

Han Li understood immediately upon seeing this.

He immediately slapped his storage bag, tossing out a pile of spirit stones:

"Here are one hundred mid-grade spirit stones. I'm taking this woman with me. Fellow Daoist Zhuo, you have no objections, do you?"

"Senior, no, our sect has put a lot of effort into training Siyue."

Zhuo You Shi refused without much thought.

joke.

Wen Siyue is the most beautiful woman in the Miaoyin Sect, second only to the young sect leader. Not only is she stunningly beautiful, but she's also a prodigy with dual spiritual roots. She reached Foundation Establishment at twenty and has the potential to become a Core Formation cultivator. She's also diligent in her cultivation, never slacking off, and her cultivation has already reached the mid-Foundation Establishment stage. How could she be sold off so cheaply?

“Senior, our sect has provided her with meticulous protection for many years, otherwise…”

In the chaotic Inner Star Sea, they had long since become playthings for others.

"Ahem, I also taught her music, chess, calligraphy, and painting, imparted the path of cultivation to her, and provided her with cultivation resources and various channels to broaden her horizons..."

Han Li became increasingly speechless as he listened.

He glanced at Zhuo Ruting indifferently:
"That mission she was on to escort supplies was arranged by you, Fellow Daoist Zhuo, wasn't it? You also anticipated that her father would protect her along the way, so you arranged for a Tribulation Cultivator to target the father and daughter, right?"

The bewitching spell instantly bewitched Zhuo You Shi, who was in the late Foundation Establishment stage.

The vast difference in their spiritual awareness left Zhuo Ruting defenseless as she was caught off guard.

"Senior, it was indeed my doing. Who told this disobedient girl to be so stubborn? When asked to serve others, she acted haughty, insisting on being a performer, not a prostitute, maintaining her chastity. When asked to marry my nephew, she, a widow, even looked down on it. Since that's the case, I'll remove her support, leaving her destitute and with no choice but to obey..."

Wen Siyue was stunned by what he heard.

Immediately, her eyes turned red and filled with a layer of mist. Her lips trembled slightly.

"Father, was he killed by someone you arranged, Master? Just so I would obey?"

How could this be?
She guessed that someone inside the door was targeting her because of some past events.

But he never imagined it was the work of his master, Zhuo Ruting.

After dispelling the bewitching spell, Han Li shook his head and thought to himself, "Just as I expected."

After Zhuo Ruting awoke from the secret technique, her face paled.

He immediately warned the guest elders who were secretly overseeing the area.

The next moment, a Core Formation cultivator appeared, squinting warily at Han Li:
"Who are you, fellow Daoist? Why have you come to my Miaoyin Sect to make things difficult for us?"

"Fellow Daoist? You dare to call me, Han, a fellow Daoist?"

The aura of a Nascent Soul cultivator was suddenly released, confined within the room, and suppressed the arriving Core Formation cultivator and Zhuo Ruting with overwhelming force. This caused the middle-aged guest elder's expression to change drastically, and he staggered backward, his legs trembling. Zhuo Ruting's face turned deathly pale, and she collapsed to her knees, her legs giving way.

"S-senpai..."

"No, please continue to address me as fellow Daoist."

Han Li held up his teacup and smiled.

Upon hearing this, the Core Formation guest elder almost burst into tears: "Senior, senior, I was impetuous, I was presumptuous, I..."

Zhuo Ruting was utterly despondent and didn't dare to utter a sound.

She never expected that her unpopular disciple would have such a terrifying background as a Nascent Soul cultivator!

 I'm taking my wife to her prenatal checkup tomorrow morning, so the afternoon update might be a little late.
