Realm-Hopping Martial Master-Chapter 500 - 296: Heavenly Puppet Sect! Phoenix Nirvana Wind! Divine Skills Invincible! Crossing with the Physical Body!
The Cang Mang Domain is vast and boundless. Even a Lord of Wanxiang Realm has places they have never set foot in.
Lord Zi Ji sent Jiang Shu to the Heavenly Puppet Sect not only to exchange Divine Skills but also in the hope that he could find more opportunities during the long journey.
Ordinary Cultivators could only hope to perceive a hint of the rudimentary form from the Great Dao and transform it into Divine Skills after reaching the Nirvana Realm. Therefore, ordinary True Men of the Primordial Pill Realm just need to diligently practice.
But Jiang Shu was different. At the Primordial Pill Realm, he had already grasped a Tao Embryo. The more of the world he saw, the better he could utilize his innate Talents.
Atop Thunder Prison Peak, Jiang Shu, Xue Xuan, and Luo Yu drank for two days straight, and he gave them some Elixirs, talismans, and Treasures. During this time, Jiang Shu also demonstrated his Divine Skills and helped Xue Xuan and Luo Yu break through some Cultivation barriers.
"The war between the Human Clan and the Demon Race is both a great catastrophe and a great opportunity. If there were no war, it would be most critical to accumulate strength honestly within the True Martial Sect. After all, you are still very young and have more than four hundred years until your lifespan’s limit."
"But now, time waits for no one. In the midst of great wars, those at the Furnace Fire Realm fall too easily. Only those who unify their Divine Skills and condense their Primordial Pill have a chance of survival. While striving to survive, seek opportunities; just because one’s Primordial Pill isn’t innately condensed doesn’t mean they can’t surpass others later on. Zhou Yan is actually an example of this. His Innate Divine Ability isn’t plentiful, but having cultivated to this point, although he’s not as advanced as me, he still surpasses too many Inner Sect Disciples."
"After I leave, if you still have questions about Cultivation, you can come to Thunder Prison Peak to consult Elder Gu Hai."
After making all necessary arrangements, Jiang Shu headed towards Phoenix Crown Peak, pausing briefly in front of Lu Qingling’s Cave Mansion before transforming into a streak of light and dashing out of the True Martial Sect.
In the Cang Mang Domain, the Eight Great Sects each occupy a vast territory, with countless Dynasties under their guidance.
The focus of Cultivation for each Dynasty under a Sect is also entirely different.
Like the True Martial Sect, which emphasizes Heavy Divine Power in combat and the accumulation of Primordial Power, the Cultivation practiced by the Dynasties below is purely Martial Arts, with very rare use of talismans, Elixirs, Artifact Refining, or puppetry. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢
Meanwhile, the Heavenly Puppet Sect, due to the need for strong spiritual power, prioritizes Talents in this area. Once identified, they are recommended to enter the Sect. In those Dynasties, having Talent for martial Cultivation doesn’t count as truly gifted.
The real geniuses are those who can multitask from a young age and withstand an onslaught of massive amounts of information.
Because of the different Cultivation Methods, each Sect’s location is also unique. The True Martial Sect values Divine Skills and Primordial Power and advocates for self-sustaining great strength, so it simply encloses land, ensuring enough mineral veins and Yuan Qi.
Whereas the Heavenly Puppet Sect, due to the refining of Puppets requiring a great deal of time, energy, and materials, has completely separated their Outer and Inner Sects.
The Outer Sect is established on mountain ranges, using geothermal energy to refine Puppets. The Inner Sect, on the other hand, is suspended 10,000 meters high in the sky. Just outside the Inner Sect, there are powerful Dao Formations that generate relentless Nirvana Winds. These winds are terribly fearsome. An ordinary True Man of the Primordial Pill Realm, if they venture too deep, will perish both in body and Dao.
Only Inner Sect Disciples, holding their Identity Jades, are allowed to enter. And these Nirvana Winds can be used to temper better Heavenly materials and aim to refine Heavenly Rank Puppets. Every single person on the True Inheritor Seed list of the Heavenly Puppet Sect has a Heavenly Rank Puppet!
In the sky, with every step Jiang Shu took, he covered a hundred yards. His mind was filled with various information about the Heavenly Puppet Sect.
The more he read, the more astonished he became at the Heavenly Puppet Sect’s foundation, and the higher his expectations for this trip rose.
If it weren’t for a talismanic writ from Peak Master Zi Ji, he, as an Inner Sect Disciple of the True Martial Sect, would not have been able to enter the Heavenly Puppet Sect.
In the Cang Mang Domain, the Eight Great Sects each occupy their own region and typically do not infringe upon each other.
Unless one reaches the status of a True Disciple, representing the face of their Sect, ordinary Disciples cannot just venture there, not even the Outer Sects.
On the journey, Jiang Shu did not make many stops. For long-distance traversal, he used teleportation arrays. Each time he reached a major city, he would simply take a brief tour, and even if there were interesting places, he would not linger for long.
In his view, heading to the Heavenly Puppet Sect now was the top priority.
Once he returned, there would be plenty of time to explore these cities and seek treasures. There was an auction house backed by the Dan Fu Sect that even auctioned Heavenly-grade Elixirs.
If they can auction Nirvana Pills, and this is an auction house backed by the Dan Fu Sect, one can hardly imagine how lavish the Disciples within the Dan Fu Sect must be in their Cultivation practices.
Internally, they can quickly advance their Realm with Elixirs. Externally, they can use talismans against enemies. Although such Cultivation is unlikely to yield truly strong individuals, how many people can truly comprehend the Great Dao and cultivate to the Realm of Wanxiang?
As for the abundance of True Men of the Primordial Pill Realm, I fear no other Sect among the Eight Great Sects can compare with the Dan Fu Sect.
The Dan Fu Sect is like this, and other Sects should not be underestimated. The Beast Taming Sect has specialized Divine Skills; not only can one transform into Demon Beasts, but they can also unite mind and spirit with the contracted Demon Beasts, obtaining the beasts’ strength, and even acquire certain special Divine Skills that extend life.
The Divine Power Conference... perhaps, by then, I will get to truly witness the elegance of these Sect Disciples.
Jiang Shu’s eyes shone with utmost brilliance, sparkling with extreme light. Although he had already sparred with Zhou Yan and had once slain a Dao Yi Sect Inner Sect Disciple in the Endless Sea.
