Chapter 735: Chapter 571: Storage Ring_1
Dragon Path Mountains… fifth-class Qianxue State Boundary…
“A place of seeking knowledge…”
Mo Hua looked slightly dazed.
With Sects erging one after another, and Proud Sons of Heaven gathering, could the gathering of the great achievents of Formations an having a complete foundation of Tao Cultivation and inheritance of all categories of Formations?
Mo Hua had only learned the Five Elents Formation so far.
But besides the Five Elents, there are many other categories of Formations, each with their own systems.
...
Such as Eryi, Three Talents, Four Symbols, Six Harmonies, Seven Stars, Eight Trigrams, and others.
Mo Hua had only seen a few brief ntions of these Formation systems in Formation Books; the descriptions vague, not to ntion a true and specific inheritance.
Mo Hua pondered deeply.
The Formations of categories like Eryi, Four Symbols, Seven Stars, Eight Trigrams—his master must also know them, but he did not teach them to Mo Hua, teaching only Five-elents Formation thods instead.
Presumably because the Five Elents Formation is the most basic and also the most widely applicable Formation.
Biting off more than one can chew is never good; mastering the Five Elents Formation and laying a solid foundation first, then learning other systems of Formations for easier cross-referencing seed wiser.
But the biggest reason, he guessed, was…
His master… knew that he didn’t have much ti left, and there were many things he wanted to teach, but he no longer had the ti…
“Master…”
Mo Hua’s gaze grew sowhat dim.
After a mont, he finally rallied his spirits and continued his examination of the map of Qian State.
The map marked a large number of Sects.
And in the Qianxue State Boundary, there were mostly “Tao Cultivation Sects”.
The so-called “Tao Cultivation” Sects are different from Industry Sects, Hidden Sects, and Spiritual rchant Sects.
Hidden Sects keep to themselves, avoid worldly affairs, and are relatively secluded.
Industry Sects and Spiritual rchant Sects prioritize profit, earning Spirit Stones and profits by managing Tao Cultivation industries or operating various stores selling Formations, Pills, Artifacts, Runes.
They also accept disciples, but that is not their main activity.
However, Tao Cultivation Sects are founded on principles of teaching Taoist Skill, with their primary operation being to “instruct Cultivators in Cultivation, imparting Taoist thods,” mainly benefiting from the Spirit Stone donations of their disciples.
Tao Cultivation Sects have so industry, but not much.
These things, Mo Hua learned while traveling, heard from the mouths of others.
Mo Hua also realized that there are quite a few differences between Sects.
So impart knowledge and instruction, while others are purely profit-driven.
Tao Cultivation Sects…
“Teaching Cultivation, imparting thods…”
Mo Hua couldn’t help but wonder, “Can I go there?”
He thought for a mont, then shook his head.
The Qianxue State Boundary is a fifth-class state boundary; the Tao Cultivation Sects inside should be quite expensive to join, right…
That “windfall” I ca across, I wonder if it’s enough to make a donation.
Even if I can afford the donation, would they accept soone like ?
Proud Sons of Heaven gathering…
These Sects should have strict criteria for accepting disciples, right?
Mo Hua flipped through the map and found that it contained sparse text, no other markings, and nothing more detailed.
“Should I ask soone about it?”
Mo Hua frowned, pondering for a long ti before feeling that the most suitable person to ask was Court Leader Zhou.
Zhang Lan should know, but he had already returned ho.
Court Leader Zhou also ca from a Clan, though not a large one, but he must have experience and insight; otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to serve as a Court Official of the Taoist Court.
Mo Hua went back to the Taoist Court and handed the map over to Court Leader Zhou to see.
“Qianxue State?”
Court Leader Zhou was sowhat surprised to hear this.
“Hmm.” Mo Hua nodded.
Court Leader Zhou thought for a mont, then said, “Wait for a mont…”
He then rummaged through his Storage Bag and pulled out several booklets. Mo Hua glanced at them and saw titles like “History of Tao Cultivation”, “Overview of Nine States” on the cover pages.
“Qian State is too vast and too far from here; I don’t rember so things very clearly…”
After looking carefully through the books, Court Leader Zhou finally nodded, saying:
“Ah, that’s right…”
“The Qianxue State Boundary is indeed the premier place for Tao Cultivation learning in all of Nine State, with nurous Sects, and a thriving academic atmosphere…”
“Across the lands of Nine State, most talented Cultivators who have reached Foundation Establishnt before the age of twenty will go to the Qianxue State Boundary and choose to enter a Sect, where they can find great teachers, befriend Proud Sons of Heaven from the various states, while studying Taoism and laying a foundation for their future path…”
“Why do they all go to the Qianxue State Boundary?”
Mo Hua was a bit puzzled, “Because it’s a fifth-class state boundary?”
“Not entirely,” Court Leader Zhou looked at Mo Hua and explained patiently, “Although Cultivation is classified into nine grades, this is an ancient classification, with nine being the ultimate number of heaven and earth, belonging to Immortal Grade.”
“Ever since the Taoist Court, nature’s spiritual energy has been gradually depleting, and it’s been a long ti since anyone has beco immortal.”
“Not to ntion the ninth grade, even the seventh and eighth grades are unattainable for Cultivators.”
“A fifth-class state boundary, for ordinary Cultivators, is already out of reach…”
“However, the reason why Qianxue State Boundary is the premier learning destination isn’t just because it’s a fifth-class…”
Court Leader Zhou paused, then continued:
“In Tao Cultivation, one speaks of ‘Wealth, Skill, Companionship, and Place’…”
“Wealth refers to Tao Cultivation resources like Spirit Stones, Spiritual Objects, and other assets;”
“Skill refers to Tao Cultivation thods: Cultivation Techniques, Spells, Tao Cultivation Martial Arts, as well as all kinds of secret techniques not passed to outsiders, including Formations, Pills, Artifacts, Runes, and such thods related to the hundred trades of Tao Cultivation;”
“Companionship refers to Taoist Friends with shared paths and interests, with firm Taoist Hearts, who engage in exchanges and mutual feedback, reflecting and progressing together in their Cultivation;”
“Place refers to renowned mountains and rivers, the foundation of Taoist Sects…”
“With a confluence of Wealth, Skill, Companionship, and Place, Qianxue State Boundary has it all, and with nearly ten thousand years of Taoist learning history, nurous Sects stand to teach the Tao, hosting complete arrays of heritage; that’s why it is the foremost Tao Cultivation State Boundary of the Nine States!”
As Mo Hua listened, he felt yearning and involuntarily asked:
