Zhao Xing glanced over and couldn’t help but feel a bit surprised.
He gathered a lot of information from these words, first of all, that ng Kun had started practicing the mountain cultivation thod fifty years ago.
This ant that fifty years ago, ng Kun had already reached the second-level Tianyun realm. Although his official rank was third grade, his strength was already at second grade. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have bothered cultivating a mountain.
The Earth Advantage Sect Ministers of Agriculture, upon reaching the second-level Tianyun realm, usually went to the Spirit Mountain blessed land for ditation.
But here in the Earth Advantage Sect, once they achieved the "Earth Return" to the second level, they would practice the mountain cultivation thod, cultivating a Spirit Mountain (or inheriting soone else’s Spirit Mountain).
Then, by borrowing the power of the earth, they would break through to the first-level Fate Palace Realm.
Secondly, ng Kun indeed was not adept at the mountain cultivation thod.
Fifty years had passed, and he had only raised his teacher’s mountain by seventy-five ters.
This was very slow. Kunshan Mountain was not even one thousand ters high, and its level was usually not higher than a fifth-level Spirit Mountain.
"I rember that the Ksitigarbha Skill also has spells to enhance the Spirit Mountain. Why is it so slow?" Zhao Xing had so doubts in his heart.
But he did not ask, perhaps ng Kun was indeed not suitable for mountain cultivation.
Upon flying to Kunshan Mountain, Zhao Xing chose a place nad Shi Ping Courtyard to reside in.
"Kunyuan Academy also has a Secret Technique Tower. However, if you want to comprehend the Earth Palace Skill and the Ksitigarbha Skill, you should go to the dojo."
The dojo ntioned here was not referring to the Military Realm dojo, but a place for enlightennt.
"The Kunyuan Dojo has many Earth Palaces, but there are only fifty-two kinds of top-level Earth Palace Skills."
"The Ksitigarbha Skill is usually found in the ’Spirit Mountain area,’ and the mountain cultivation thod is closely related to the Ksitigarbha Skill."
ng Kun took out two square black tokens and handed them to Zhao Xing. "If you want to go to the Kunyuan Underground Palace to comprehend the Earth Palace Skill, take my token."
"If you want to go to the Spirit Mountain area to comprehend the Ksitigarbha Skill, take this token from Doctor Gu Changqing of the Five Classics."
"However, you should keep a low profile. If there are others, just wait in line. Do not let anyone find out your background."
"Yes," Zhao Xing respectfully took the token. "To study the Earth Palace Skill, go to the Kunyuan Dojo. To study the Ksitigarbha Skill, go to the Spirit Mountain area. Keep a low profile. How long can I stay each ti?"
ng Kun smiled. "There is no ti limit at the Kunyuan Dojo because you have my Dean’s order. For the Spirit Mountain area, as long as it’s not the three mountains, you are not limited. If it is those three mountains, then wait for allocation. Usually, you can be allocated seven days each month to comprehend the three mountains."
"Thank you, Dean," Zhao Xing understood that this was the resource promised to him by Kunyuan Academy.
Since it was his avatar here, consuming treasures would be a waste. Of course, it was better to convert it into ti to comprehend in such a treasured land.
Ti to comprehend in treasured lands was also a kind of resource, and even more precious.
Many seventh- or eighth-rank treasures were supplied in large numbers.
But such specific comprehension resources had limited quotas.
If one person got it, others wouldn’t; if one occupied more ti, others would have less ti.
Especially comprehension resources for top-level skills were extrely precious.
Countless fourth-rank officials all wanted such resources.
Because it was essential for the leap from middle to high-rank official positions.
With the sa rits and qualifications, if soone knew the top-level skill, the court would certainly prioritize promoting the ’fourth-rank official who knows the top-level skill!’
"The benefits of the Earth Advantage Sect are truly excellent," Zhao Xing couldn’t help but sigh.
Hearing this, ng Kun nodded in satisfaction.
Zhao Xing’s sigh was exactly the effect he wanted!
How could it be possible to attract soone without offering a lot? After three or five years, when Zhao Xing’s true self had ti, he would certainly co to the Minister of Agriculture’s Holy Land in person.
Then whether to go to the Heavenly Ti Sect’s Holy Land or the Earth Advantage Sect’s Holy Land would be a big deal.
"The benefits of our Earth Advantage Sect are abundant. What you see now is just an appetizer," ng Kun said proudly. "You will gradually understand in the future."
Zhao Xing smiled and cupped his hands. "Thank you, Dean ng, for the guidance. Xing will rember it in his heart."
...
After ng Kun left, Zhao Xing did not waste any ti and imdiately began to choose a top-level skill.
"Top-level Earth Palace Skills: Purgatory Earth Palace, Netherfla Earth Palace, Qingmu Earth Palace, You Shen Earth Palace, Golden Sun Earth Palace, and so on."
"However, only four top-level Earth Palace Skills lead to the ultimate level."
"They are Hanhai Earth Palace, Xuanshui Earth Palace, Taixu Earth Palace, and Kongming Earth Palace."
"The four top-level skills are all ultimate skills derived from the Returning Ruins Palace."
"If I am to cultivate, my first choices are the Hanhai Earth Palace and Xuanshui Earth Palace."
"Because after the Liang King’s rebellion, the chaos in Pinghai State, East Sea turmoil, and Southern Barbarian counterattacks would all trigger a great disaster, which is ’flooding.’" Zhao Xing thought in his palace of mories from dreams.
The Liang King’s rebellion, he had to seize this opportunity.
Besides promotion, there were huge intangible benefits, naly reputation.
What could be easier than gaining fa through ritorious deeds in the ’Liang King’s rebellion’?
This was an event that would shake the Nineteen States and even the Four Seas and Eight Desolates.
The reputation earned through the Liang King’s rebellion could be recognized across the Four Seas and be widely spread.
Talented individuals like Mi Fei had done many things, but they were only famous in a few counties in Guangling State.
Their ’reputation value’ had temporal and regional limitations. If Mi Fei went to Pinghai State, few people would know him!
"I must pave the way for becoming the Grand Minister of Agriculture in the future. If I can make contributions in the Liang King’s rebellion, it would be solid credentials."
"In this rebellion, not only can I gain reputation in the military, but also in the court."
"It can be said to be all-encompassing, universally applicable, and permanently effective."
Reputation seed intangible, but sotis it played a decisive factor.
