Worldwide Awakening: My Soul Kinds Are Lost-Chapter 658: The ’Complete Evil to Complete Good Skill’ of the Virtue Sect _1

On a small hill, a minor sect known as the Virtue Sect was launched.

It caused quite a stir in the surrounding villages and towns. Many people went to take a look, but they all returned disappointed.

In their eyes, this so-called Virtue Sect was likely a fraud. After all, the immortal sect was too dilapidated, and its Sect Leader was surprisingly down-to-earth, completely unlike the aloof Immortal Masters they usually encountered.

So, overcome with disappointment, no one else came.

Wang Linchi's take on this was that these people were a bunch of scoundrels who wouldn't appreciate what was good for them unless they were mistreated.

However, this event naturally alarmed the neighboring sects. The location Wang Linchi had chosen for his sect was right next to a Righteous Sect known as the Yanhua Sect.

Therefore, the Yanhua Sect dispatched members to investigate. After all, with a new small sect suddenly appearing, they naturally had to check it out.

If it had been a Demon Gate, they wouldn't have bothered sending investigators; they would have come directly to annihilate the sect.

"You dare to establish a sect when you're only at the Qi Cultivation Stage..." The Great Elder of the Yanhua Sect was at a loss for words for a moment. It wasn't normally his role to investigate such matters; he was, after all, a Divination Elder. Wang Linchi, a mere cultivator at the Qi Refining First Layer, was simply beneath his notice.

He had originally been at the Second Layer of Qi cultivation, but after Wang Linchi re-cultivated, his level had dropped back to the Qi Refining First Layer. He didn't mind; it was merely a superficial distinction anyway.

However, the real reason this Great Elder from the Yanhua Sect, an expert at the Divinity Transformation Stage, had come to visit personally was, naturally, because of the merit surrounding Wang Linchi. Although the Merit Golden Wheel had not yet fully formed, the Merit-golden Light emanating from him was already so bright it nearly blinded the elder.

With the amount of merit Wang Linchi possessed, any place he resided would become a feng shui treasure. Others would scramble to venerate him; naturally, no one would think of killing him.

Let alone whether he could even succeed in killing someone protected by such immense merit, if he dared to make a move, his own Sect Leader, the Mount Tai Elder, and others would likely eliminate him first.

"Are there requirements to establish sects?" Wang Linchi was aware of the other party's attitude, so he wasn't concerned.

"No, there definitely aren't any such requirements." The Great Elder of the Yanhua Sect pondered and realized this was true. However, almost all cultivators who established sects needed to be at least at the Golden Core Stage; otherwise, they wouldn't even have a legacy to pass on.

The Golden Core Stage is only the third realm in the cultivation system, yet this realm had become an insurmountable barrier for countless cultivators, many of whom spent their entire lives stuck there, eventually dying of old age.

The Great Elder of the Yanhua Sect was actually quite curious about what inheritance Wang Linchi possessed that made him dare to establish a sect while only at the Qi Cultivation Stage.

Of course, he was even more curious about what Wang Linchi had done to accumulate so much merit at such a young age and with his current level of strength.

It must be understood that acquiring merit is incredibly difficult. Even when cultivators at the Transcendance Tribulation Stage exterminate the Demon Path or quell great disasters, the merit they gain is minuscule, not even one-millionth of what Wang Linchi possessed.

"If you are amenable, you can join our Yanhua Sect. We will establish a dedicated Merit Peak for you to preach your dao," the Great Elder of the Yanhua Sect proposed.

As a dignified Great Elder who had come personally, his purpose was naturally to invite Wang Linchi to join the Yanhua Sect. What else could it be?

Bringing such a mascot back to be venerated could ensure the Yanhua Sect's meteoric rise in the days to come.

They didn't expect Wang Linchi to excel in combat. They only hoped he would be diligent, raise his cultivation and strength, and live as long as possible. The longer he lived, the more they would gain.

"Too small," Wang Linchi said, shaking his head and looking into the distance. "You simply don't understand the 'Complete Evil to Complete Good Skill' established by my Virtue Sect. With this single Cultivation Technique alone, all other inheritances in the world are inferior to those of my Virtue Sect."

Upon hearing these words, the Great Elder of the Yanhua Sect secretly shook his head. This person was good, just prone to boasting. However, he also offered a word of caution, "You can say such things privately, but do not go preaching them outside."

He didn't know what the "Complete Evil to Complete Good Skill" was, but he knew one thing: the Righteous Sword Sect and the Three Sects of the Demon Path would not take kindly to such words.

If word got out, even if they were wary of Wang Linchi's meritorious protection, they would find other ways to suppress him.

"Don't believe me?" Wang Linchi raised an eyebrow, a hint of arrogance in his tone.

"I know your cultivation is extraordinary. However, if you can withstand this Burning Flame Technique of mine, I'll give you a chance to join," Wang Linchi continued with a smile. "Normally, entry into my Virtue Sect requires a corresponding destiny. Without this destiny, I wouldn't accept anyone, no matter how talented."

Hearing this, the Great Elder of the Yanhua Sect also began to laugh. He had seen many people with limited perspectives, but this was the first time he had encountered someone like Wang Linchi.

"I have already reached the Pinnacle of Divination Period. Why would you think I cannot withstand your Burning Flame Technique? Not to mention, our Yanhua Sect excels not only in sword techniques but also in fire-based spells," the Great Elder of the Yanhua Sect stated.

"Only Divinity Transformation Stage? I thought you were at the Transcendance Tribulation Stage," Wang Linchi said, feigning disappointment. "Very well, I shall hold back significantly to avoid injuring you."

"What?" The Great Elder of the Yanhua Sect was utterly taken aback. He had never expected Wang Linchi to say such a thing; it amused him to the point of exasperation. He had never met such an arrogant individual.

This might be a good opportunity. I can teach him a lesson, let him understand the vastness of the world. Afterward, he might join the Yanhua Sect more readily.

As for the so-called Burning Flame Technique, he certainly knew of it. It was merely a minor spell from the Qi Cultivation Stage. Even cultivated to Fulfillment, it produced only a fist-sized flame, essentially used for igniting things.

"Very well, then. Let's give it a try. Let's see just how powerful your Burning Flame Technique is and whether it can actually harm me," the Great Elder of the Yanhua Sect responded without hesitation.

"Then let's go outside to fight, to avoid burning down my house," Wang Linchi suggested.

The Great Elder of the Yanhua Sect naturally followed Wang Linchi outside. He only tolerated this because Wang Linchi possessed such profound merit. Any other cultivator at the Qi Cultivation Stage daring such disrespect would have been dealt with long ago.

A mere Qi Cultivation Stage cultivator dared to be so irreverent towards him, an expert at the Divinity Transformation Stage.

Although the Righteous Path was far more benevolent than the Demon Path, the Qiandao Realm was fundamentally a place where the weak were prey for the strong, and the powerful were revered. Thus, cultivators of the Righteous Path were not all benevolent saints. 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

The two of them exited the house. Wang Linchi kindly reminded him, "Aren't you going to use any defensive measures?"

"No need. You may proceed," the Great Elder of the Yanhua Sect replied, completely unconcerned. He believed that even if a Qi Cultivation Stage cultivator attacked him with such minor spells for a thousand years, he wouldn't be harmed in the slightest.

On the contrary, he felt he needed to restrain his own power, lest a careless surge from him accidentally injure his opponent.

"Alright, then I'm starting," Wang Linchi warned once more.

The Great Elder of the Yanhua Sect nodded, indicating for him to begin his "performance."

However, in the very next moment, his expression shifted. He sensed a peculiar disturbance in the surrounding Spiritual Energy.

"No way, this is the Burning Flame Technique?!"

Subsequently, countless fierce flames erupted, transforming into a terrifying sea of fire. More terrifyingly, the flames constituting this sea were no ordinary mortal fire. They were formed from countless esoteric Fire Seeds. He recognized tens of thousands of the flame types before him, yet there were even more he had never seen or heard of.

This sea of fire instantly enveloped him, trapping him within this fiery cage from which he could not escape.

"That's right. This is the Burning Flame Technique," Wang Linchi's voice drifted over, ethereal and indistinct.

The Great Elder of the Yanhua Sect immediately activated various spells and divine skills to resist. However, within this sea of fire, he found he had no resistance whatsoever. The moment his spells and divine skills made contact with the flames, they disintegrated.

Were he not at the Divinity Transformation Stage, he would have been incinerated by now.

At this moment, Wang Linchi's earlier words flashed through his mind. It turned out the young man hadn't been arrogant; he had genuinely been considerate of him! If Wang Linchi hadn't held back and had instead used a spell meant for a Transcendance Tribulation Stage expert, he wouldn't even have the strength to speak right now.

"Wait, I surrender! I surrender!!!" the Great Elder of the Yanhua Sect hurriedly shouted.

Any later, and even if he didn't die, he would be severely injured.

The instant he uttered these words, the sea of fire vanished without a trace, a sight that left the Great Elder of the Yanhua Sect utterly aghast.

Where on earth did this person come from? How could a mere Qi Cultivation Stage cultivator possess such terrifying power? Could the heritage of this Virtue Sect truly be so miraculously profound?

"I thought you were going to hold out to the bitter end just to save face," Wang Linchi teased.

The Great Elder of the Yanhua Sect, however, wore a bitter smile. "Senior, you aren't actually a Transcendance Tribulation Stage expert disguised as someone in the Qi Cultivation Stage, deliberately toying with me, are you?"

"How could that be? I am genuinely, through and through, at the Qi Cultivation Stage," Wang Linchi replied, then added, "I've just re-cultivated once."

"So, how about it? Interested in cultivating merit with me? It's far more rewarding than cultivating to become an immortal."
