Sect Master’s Immortal Journey

The Taiyi Sect currently possesses some cultivation techniques that can lead one all the way to the Primordial Spirit stage. These techniques include the heritage of Purple Gold Sect, Layered Mystery Sect, and others, but they are not authentic Taiyi Sect inheritances; they were obtained from elsewhere.

The Extreme Sword Spirit General coincidentally obtained the Sword Cultivator technique in the past, which is highly refined and capable of being cultivated up to the Primordial Spirit stage. However, like the others, it is not part of the Taiyi Sect's heritage; it has a different origin.

In fact, within the Cultivation World, disciples of various sects may not necessarily consider their sect's heritage technique as their main cultivation practice due to reasons such as personal constitution or special opportunities. For many sects, these heritage techniques may not be regarded as extraordinary.

When Meng Zhang first entered the sect, he cultivated the Lesser Yang Qi Art, which is a common and widespread technique available in many places, not exclusive to Taiyi Sect. It was only after he entered the Trial Ground and obtained the more profound "Sun-Moon Wheel Turning Sutra" that he switched his cultivation focus.

During his exchange with the Extreme Sword Spirit General, the latter informed Meng Zhang that the "Sun-Moon Wheel Turning Sutra" is a genuine Taiyi Sect heritage technique and one of its core inheritances. Since Meng Zhang chose the "Sun-Moon Wheel Turning Sutra" as his primary cultivation technique, he must not easily give up on it or switch to other techniques.

Though the Extreme Sword Spirit General's words were not explicit, from the fragments of information he revealed, it is evident that the Taiyi Sect attached great importance to the direct lineage inheritance during its prime.

If Meng Zhang can cultivate the "Sun-Moon Wheel Turning Sutra" to the Primordial Spirit stage, it would bring immense benefits. Not only is the technique highly refined, but it also perfectly fits his constitution. It is unlikely that he could find a more suitable technique even if he searched the surroundings of the Jiuqu League.

However, after reaching the Gold Core stage in his cultivation, Meng Zhang faced a significant problem. The "Sun-Moon Wheel Turning Sutra" he obtained from the Trial Ground only covers the part from the Refining Qi stage to the Gold Core stage. He has no clue on how to use this technique to break through to the Primordial Spirit stage.

Even the four Guardian Spirit Generals of the Taiyi Sect are powerless to help him with this issue. Meng Zhang has read numerous scriptures, including the core inheritances of other sects, such as the Layered Mystery Sect's "Fusang Sutra," which is an excellent technique that can be cultivated all the way to the Primordial Spirit stage. Although referencing these techniques has benefited Meng Zhang and granted him many insights, even with his talent, he lacks the ability to bridge the gap and fill in the missing parts of the "Sun-Moon Wheel Turning Sutra" on his own.

Seeing that this path is not viable, Meng Zhang, as a Diviner, chose an auspicious day and performed the Grand Evolving Fortune to conduct a calculation. The result was beyond his expectations, indicating that his opportunity has not yet arrived, and he needs to wait patiently. As for further information, it was beyond the scope of his calculation.

Unable to do much about it, Meng Zhang could only temporarily set this matter aside. Fortunately, the content of the "Sun-Moon Wheel Turning Sutra" for the Gold Core stage is still relatively complete, which does not hinder Meng Zhang's cultivation progress.

Meng Zhang needs a considerable amount of time to complete the Gold Core stage cultivation.

Leaving aside other matters, cultivators at the Gold Core stage require the absorption and refinement of the Nine Heavens Refined Essence. Without the help of senior sect members, it is quite a significant challenge to efficiently obtain the Nine Heavens Refined Essence.

During Meng Zhang's first journey to the Nine Heavens, he could shamelessly seek assistance from Jin Li True Monarch. However, it would not be feasible to accompany Jin Li True Monarch every time he goes to the Nine Heavens. Even if he were willing to do so, Jin Li True Monarch might not wish to burden himself with Meng Zhang.

In addition to cultivating his primary technique, Meng Zhang also needs to spend time gradually honing various Divine Abilities to enhance his combat power. Throughout his journey, Meng Zhang has experienced multiple perilous battles and never slackened in his efforts to improve his combat strength.

Upon his return to the Taiyi Sect from Jiuqu City, the entire sect began to get busy again.

Subsequently, Meng Zhang went to the Nine Heavens twice more in an attempt to obtain the Nine Heavens Refined Essence. His Spiritual Awareness, as a Diviner, helped him avoid many dangers, but there were still risks he couldn't completely avoid.

In two instances, he found himself besieged by a group of cloud beasts at the Gold Core stage, and it took considerable effort to break free. The most dangerous encounter involved a cloud beast at the Primordial Spirit stage that he stumbled upon along the way. Surprisingly, his Diviner's Spiritual Awareness failed to alert him in advance. Fortunately, he managed to retreat in time, and the pursuing cloud beast eventually gave up the chase.

This near-death experience taught Meng Zhang a crucial lesson – his Spiritual Awareness as a Diviner is not infallible, and it does not always warn him of impending dangers. There are exceptions, and many crises might not trigger his Spiritual Awareness.

While his Spiritual Awareness can provide some guidance during the search for the Nine Heavens Refined Essence, its role is limited, and it cannot guarantee a foolproof journey with abundant rewards every time. At most, it increases the likelihood of discovering the target compared to others.

Meng Zhang's two trips to the Nine Heavens yielded only a modest harvest, with insufficient Nine Heavens Refined Essence for his cultivation needs. He felt dissatisfied but lacked better solutions.

The Nine Heavens is fraught with dangers, and even with his current Cultivation Base, every step he takes there is like walking on thin ice, requiring utmost caution. Meng Zhang is not aware that his performance is already remarkable, as it is uncommon for many cultivators at the Gold Core stage to venture into the Nine Heavens without facing hardships or gaining minimal rewards. The fact that he can safely venture in and gain something is an achievement not easily attained even by experienced Gold Core cultivators.

The shortage of Nine Heavens Refined Essence has impeded Meng Zhang's cultivation progress. Relying solely on absorbing the natural spiritual energy is insufficient to complete the Gold Core stage cultivation.

In this situation, Meng Zhang decided to allocate more time to practice various Divine Abilities. While his cultivation progress wasn't smooth, the Extreme Sword Spirit General's cultivation progressed smoothly without any setbacks.

The spiritual treasure, Jin Zhongyu, brought back by Meng Zhang, was easily refined and absorbed by the Extreme Sword Spirit General, leading to an unsurprising recovery of his Gold Core stage Cultivation Base.

This development added another Gold Core stage combat power to the Taiyi Sect. Moreover, it wasn't a newly breakthrough cultivator at the Gold Core stage, but an experienced, battle-hardened veteran.
