"But your ultimate technique, Senior Brother, is just going to be buried like this? Even if you don’t want to take this boy in, you can still pass on your life’s ultimate techniques to him."
The black-robed elder of the "Scripture Pavilion" pondered for a mont and ca up with an idea, speaking with a smile.
"I have considered that!"
The elder in the purple robe smiled, "I heard that this boy is participating in the True Disciple examination. Let’s see if he can co back alive!"
"Yes! This ti, the situation is quite extraordinary!"
Speaking of this topic, the elder’s brow furrowed, his expression grave, "The Sect Leader Venerable seems unwilling to drag it on any longer. This ti, I heard that the ’Black Tortoise Army’ has been gathered to prepare for a battle against the Demon Dao forces at the front line."
"Ha! How could soone as fierce as him tolerate the other Demon Dao, Demon Dao, and Buddhist Sect constantly thwarting the Sect’s offensives?"
The elder in the purple robe chuckled lightly, his expression sowhat complex.
"Indeed! If it weren’t for the Sect Leader Venerable’s attempt to break through to the Nascent Soul Realm, he would have eradicated the major sects long ago! Now that he has stabilized his cultivation at the Nascent Soul Realm and officially erged to oversee the overall situation, a conclusion should finally be reached after three hundred years of warfare."
The black-robed elder nodded, deeply agreeing.
The Sect Leader Venerable of the "Shenxiao Dao Sect," an unrivaled figure of his ti.
Upon ntioning this person, the black-robed elder was filled with imnse admiration.
"Yes! Hope so! Other forces won’t be so easy to deal with either! So peerless figures won’t give up easily."
The elder in the purple robe nodded, a hint of complexity flashing in his eyes.
Three hundred years ago, it was he who discovered the Ancestral Vein at the front line!
Back then, he led the charge on the front lines.
Back then, he led the Cyan Dragon Army, sweeping through various outpost sects, his fa spreading throughout the Southern Heaven Continent and even to farther continents.
And now, he could only sit pitifully in the "Scripture Pavilion" drinking Spirit Tea with old friends, lanting the ebbs and flows of life.
"Surely this ti, the Sect Leader Venerable will personally avenge Senior Brother!"
This was what the black-robed elder thought inwardly without voicing it out.
...
Li Yunjing was unaware of the conversations between the great figures upstairs. He entered the second floor and went straight to the front desk to state his purpose.
After revealing his cultivation, the person at the front desk did not give him any trouble.
He directly spent five hundred thousand Low Grade Spirit Stones to exchange for Contribution Points.
This ti, Li Yunjing intended to exchange for the second volus of books on Artifact Refining, Alchemy, Array Formation, Puppetry, and Talisman.
The price for each second volu book in these five areas was one hundred thousand Contribution Points.
These are astronomical figures.
This is a significant thod for the "Shenxiao Dao Sect" to control the developnt of its disciples.
Otherwise, with tens of thousands of cultivators relying on the Sect’s support, even the largest Sect couldn’t withstand such consumption.
Apart from so legacy cultivation techniques and unique books of the "Scripture Pavilion," disciples wishing to study any other books in the pavilion must spend Contribution Points.
If Contribution Points were insufficient, disciples could complete tasks, submit materials, Spirit Stones, or Magical Treasures—anything that could be converted to Spirit Stones, and the "Scripture Pavilion" would accept it all.
With this model, the non-productive "Scripture Pavilion" beca very wealthy, thanks to the disciples from other peaks who ca to borrow books, bringing with them wealth.
The cultivation techniques, magic, and lesser Divine Techniques held by Li Yunjing could also be handed over to the "Scripture Pavilion" to exchange for Contribution Points.
This ti, Li Yunjing requested the front desk to call a few "Scripture Pavilion" scholars to appraise these techniques and give an estimate to exchange for Contribution Points.
The Sect is a place with rules, and Li Yunjing wasn’t afraid they would cheat him. After handing over the cultivation Jade Scroll, he found a stone room to seclude himself for reading.
As for the settlent?
When he erged from seclusion, the "Scripture Pavilion" scholars would naturally appraise a fair price and credit it to his Identity Token.
While Li Yunjing was in seclusion on the second floor of the "Scripture Pavilion," news of his Foundation Establishnt had already spread.
The terrifying speed at which he reached Foundation Establishnt within two years aroused imnse curiosity about him.
In just three days, this news had nearly reached everyone.
Li Yunjing’s acquaintances, friends, and allies were all shocked to extre degrees upon hearing this news.
Over these three days, Li Yunjing’s communication talismans nearly exploded from the overload.
Almost every mont, soone was congratulating him on his promotion to the Foundation Establishnt Realm, or wanting to catch up.
Li Yunjing received none of these ssages. He focused wholeheartedly on reading the books he exchanged for, learning the knowledge they contained.
The second volus of "Puppetry Technique Explanation," "Alchemy Technique Basics," "Comprehensive Understanding of Refining Knowledge," "Basic Array Formation Explanation," and "Basic Knowledge of Talisman Making."
The contents of these five books were not real secret manuals, but they recorded detailed basic knowledge and practice tips of the five techniques.
As long as the cultivator had the comprehension, they could distill and refine the knowledge they needed from these foundational elents.
With these five books, if Li Yunjing comprehensively understood them, he would grasp the entire contents of these five systems. The extent of his future growth would depend on his own capability.
Of course, another way was learning higher-level techniques from soone else.
This path now only remained in the field of Array Dao.
It’s impossible for the other four halls to pass on advanced knowledge to soone like Li Yunjing. Only the "Seven Star Palace," which he had joined, could potentially teach him higher-level Array Dao knowledge and complete formations in the future.
On the fourth day of Li Yunjing’s seclusion in the "Scripture Pavilion," the Shenxiao Hall issued a decree from the Sect Leader Venerable, restarting the arrangents for a new front-line war.
The great figures didn’t need to handle everything personally.
Soon, a group of "Shenxiao Dao Sect" high-level Golden Core Realm mbers, skilled in military affairs, convened at the Shenxiao Hall’s side hall to discuss the arrangents.
This mission, ordered by the Sect Leader Venerable personally, naturally claid imdiate attention.
After three days and nights of discussion, the top Golden Core Realm experts of the "Shenxiao Dao Sect" finally formulated ten battle plans.
Imdiately, these Golden Core Realm experts sought an audience with the Sect Leader Venerable, submitting the plans for his review.
Soon, the new battle plan was selected by the Sect Leader Venerable, stamped with the "Shenxiao Thunder Seal," and presented to the Supre Elders for confirmation.
After several reviews, the new battle plan was ultimately approved at the highest level.
anwhile, after ten days of reading in the "Scripture Pavilion," Li Yunjing finally felt exhausted.
He erged from the stone room, went to the front desk, and checked his earnings from the submitted books: a total of over a hundred cultivation techniques and five to six hundred pieces of magic and lesser Divine Techniques.
After clearing out duplicates per the "Scripture Pavilion" regulations, only a tenth of the cultivation techniques Li Yunjing submitted were accepted.
According to the "Scripture Pavilion" rules, Li Yunjing was awarded fifty thousand Contribution Points.
Adding that to his remaining Contribution Points, Li Yunjing now had seventy-two thousand, sufficient to cover his daily expenses at the Sect.
Finally, Li Yunjing opened his communication talisman, which imdiately buzzed endlessly with ssages from nurous acquaintances.
For a mont, several staff mbers near the front desk on the second floor of the "Scripture Pavilion" stared in shock.
The scene was like a swarm of bees buzzing by. Just how much business did Li Yunjing have?
