Easy Way of Cultivation: Power Harvesting-Chapter 259 - 140: The Power of the Profound Yellow Tripod, Crushing the Three Major Sects (2)
Huo Tianzheng shook his head: "The Great Sun Shattering Fist, Dragon Roar Heaven-Shattering Finger, and the Heaven-Reaching Saber Manual are all supreme Divine Realm Martial Arts. Learning techniques inferior to these is useless, and the Demon Suppression Bureau doesn’t have anything more powerful than them.
However, you can learn some healing martial arts and soul-searching techniques!"
Wei Fan’s eyes slightly brightened; these things indeed need to be learned.
The Will Power of the Divine Realm Martial Sect, although the healing effect is decent, is still not as good as true healing martial arts.
He doesn’t believe he won’t get hurt, and as for skills, it’s always best to be prepared.
Handing over the Golden Waist Token and some merits to Elder Huo, Wei Fan did not rush to the stone room, as Huo Tianzheng had more to say.
"Now the situation in Su City has stabilized, with only a few offenders still being pursued. After discussing with Situ Feng, we plan to assemble a team in a few days to eliminate the destabilizing factors within the area. What are your thoughts?"
This time, the danger to Su City mostly originated from within.
Although Yun City was still defensible, internally there was chaos, with the evil spirits taking advantage in the temples. The Jianghu Sects not only refused to help but also seized the opportunity to profit and elevate their status, becoming the largest destabilizing factor.
At that time, if even one sect turned traitor like Fu Shizheng, the entire Su City would become a playground for the Demon Fiends.
"Are all the sects to be eradicated?"
Long Xueyi frowned; she had never imagined that Huo Tianzheng and Situ Feng had such resolve.
In the past, although everyone knew the harm of the sects, some disciples had joined the Demon Suppression Bureau to slay demons, making it hard to turn face completely.
This time, as the sects stood by idly, there is indeed a reason to act.
But this is not the case like the Divine Blade Sect, where capturing the ringleader solves the problem.
Just because the sects didn’t act during Su City’s crisis, the Demon Suppression Bureau wants to flatten them—such domineering behavior will surely lead to resistance from the sect disciples.
If it truly comes to action, it will not be as simple as just a few deaths.
Elder Huo shook his head: "We will only act against the three first-class sects, as they are the only ones capable of shaking the Demon Suppression Bureau. They won’t be directly eradicated; if they are willing to relocate outside of Su City, we can let them leave.
If not, such destabilizing factors cannot remain within Su City. In times of turmoil, we don’t need to worry about them stabbing us in the back.
What about you, what do you think?"
He looked at Wei Fan. Situ Feng would continue to guard Cyan Cloud Mountain to deter Black Wind Ridge. Wei Fan is expected to play the main role in taking down the three major powers, so his opinion is crucial.
As for Long Xueyi, she might oppose, but once a decision is set, she will execute it.
Wei Fan remained expressionless: "Jianghu sects wielding power have taken a genius from Su City, yet when the Human Race faces a crisis, they stand by and watch, not protecting the Human Race. Such sects have no reason to exist.
My thought is to flatten them directly, letting other sects see the consequences of those who only exploit our Human Race without contributing."
This time, the most infuriating is Fu Shizheng’s betrayal and the inaction of the three major sects.
In ordinary times, it might be tolerable that they ignore the demon fiends, but when Cyan Cloud City was breached, their Divine Realm remained indifferent.
Although not truly turning traitor, their behavior was akin to betrayal. They extracted from the citizens of Su City but played dead when they should have protected them.
Such sects might as well be eradicated to let those truly willing to shoulder responsibility take their place.
You took a genius and didn’t stand up when needed; what use do you have?
Huo Tianzheng sighed: "Well, then. Your bloodthirstiness... Situ Feng wasn’t wrong; you not only want to support but want to flatten them directly too."
He changed his tone: "But it’s best to persuade them to leave first, make them get out of Su City, then take action if they don’t leave. Although we only have three major sects in Su City, there are others elsewhere. If the methods are too harsh, sects in other places won’t sit idly by."
Wei Fan’s expression turned cold: "Anyone who disagrees will be destroyed. Without eliminating internal threats, how can we focus on resisting the demon fiends? What meaning is there in a sect that doesn’t resist the demon fiends?"
Huo Tianzheng shook his head: "That’s reasonable, but it should be done step-by-step. Actually, these sects’ ancestors were contributors against demon fiends; otherwise, their sects wouldn’t have been established in Su City.
It’s just that over time, their descendants have forgotten their founding principles. In general, give them a chance first, and directly flattening them... Well, it could incite resistance from sects across the land and would be difficult to explain to those above."
Wei Fan nodded: "Since they had contributions, then give them a chance first. If they refuse to relocate, then flatten them!"
The matter was quickly settled, and Long Xueyi naturally had no objections.
The three major sects were indeed excessive this time, and it is right for Elder Huo and Situ Feng to be wary. Given they could watch as demon fiends breached the Human Race city, it wouldn’t be surprising if they later allied with demon fiends.
However, they didn’t immediately take action; there was still a group of people in Cyan Cloud City who hadn’t returned, and they needed to secretly transfer back some deputy generals and captains.
Both Wei Fan and Long Xueyi were acting as Deputy Commanders and were not familiar with these things. After setting the tone, Elder Huo also acted as a reluctant caretaker, handing everything over to Chen Qiming to arrange.
Wei Fan, after reviewing the Soul-Searching Technique and Rejuvenation Technique in the stone room, returned to his courtyard as it grew dark.
[Divine Soul (Sea of Consciousness: 170 Zhang)]
[Rejuvenation Technique (Uninitiated)]
[Soul-Searching Technique (Uninitiated)]
...
[Ordinary Power: 26,300 years]
[Spirit Soul Power: 30 years]
Opening the panel, Wei Fan first used up all thirty years of Spirit Soul Power to expand his Sea of Consciousness to two hundred zhang!
The cultivation of the Divine Realm primarily involves strengthening the Divine Soul and expanding the Sea of Consciousness, and without special cultivation techniques, it can only be achieved slowly by accumulating power.
Last night, even with his skeletal potential enhanced fivefold, it still took two thousand years’ worth of power to expand the Sea of Consciousness by twenty zhang.
In terms of cultivation advancement, the effect of ordinary power was becoming increasingly inefficient.
However, this inefficiency only applied to enhancing the Divine Soul; in terms of tempering the body, the effects remained significant.
Spending another five hundred years of power each, he perfected both the Soul-Searching Technique and Rejuvenation Technique.
Wei Fan drew the Tiger Soul Saber and lightly made a cut on his arm, using the Heart Method of the Rejuvenation Technique, and within a few breaths, the wound vanished.
Upon reaching the Divine Realm, martial arts indeed become miraculous.
With a grasp of the air, a more than one-meter-high Profound Yellow Tripod appeared in his hand, which he hadn’t had time to temper before. Now was the time for its refinement.
Although he had the Tiger Soul Saber, its material was inferior to that of the Profound Yellow Tripod, and its potential for growth was not as high. Moreover, as far as divine weapons are concerned, the more the merrier.
Other Divine Realm cultivators dare not refine too many divine weapons due to concerns of time and energy, but he had no such concerns.
"Previously, refining the Tiger Soul Saber into a Middle-Level Divine Soldier took three thousand years of power. Now, with my Will Power doubled, I wonder how much power will be needed to refine the Profound Yellow Tripod into a Middle-Level Divine Soldier..."
As Wei Fan mused, the panel began to flicker:
[One year of power, you begin to refine the Profound Yellow Tripod with the Divine Weapon Technique. You discover that perhaps due to the previous refinement by the White Elephant Demon Monarch, the process is not smooth, and your Will Power cannot effectively integrate into the tripod.]
...
Seeing this, Wei Fan was unsurprised. Divine Soldiers are martial artists’ path weapons, growing alongside their owners. The refining process involves merging one’s lifelong martial dao and will power with the divine weapon. Once the owner passes, the weapon’s growth ceases, and no one else can continue its refinement or further enhance it.
Because the Profound Yellow Tripod was still in the rough-hewn state, he could continue to refine it. Had it already become a divine weapon, even a top-notch material would be wasted.
If not for this reason, then the sects, existing for thousands of years and passing divine weapons through countless generations, would have impossibly powerful weapons.
...
[One hundred years of power, you finally remove the White Elephant Demon Monarch’s traces, speeding up the refinement of the Profound Yellow Tripod.]
[Two thousand years of power, the material of the Profound Yellow Tripod has significantly improved, transforming into a Demigod Soldier]
Wei Fan’s expression suddenly changed, his arm sinking as he felt the weight of the Profound Yellow Tripod in his hand surge more than tenfold in an instant.
If not for his drastically increased strength, comparable to a single arm wielding tens of millions of pounds, the Profound Yellow Tripod might have fallen and destroyed the entire Demon Suppression Bureau.
"Indeed, just as Zhang Xianlong said, the higher the quality of the Profound Yellow Tripod, the more terrifying its weight!"
This was just a Demigod Soldier, and its weight already exceeded ten million jin.
When it becomes a true divine weapon, its weight will be unimaginable; a casual smash might be enough to turn a Divine Realm Martial Sect into flesh pulp.
The power consumed was vast, but its power made it all worthwhile.
