Chapter 411: Chapter 411: Big Boss (Happy New Year!)

"Master!"

Leng Yue Immortal was bewildered by the Five Poison Miasma and involuntarily passed out.

When she regained consciousness, she saw her two disciples, Huang Ying and Lü Rui, holding her and weeping bitterly.

"Scoundrel!"

Fierce by nature, thinking of all the evil deeds of Daoist Daohua Lin Ruyu, she was both alarmed and ready to detonate her Golden Core in desperation.

However, no matter how she tried to mobilize her mana, the Golden Core wouldn’t budge, sealed by a layer of multicolored restraints; she couldn’t help but feel a chill in her heart.

She looked around and realized she was in a cave, with her Cold Moon Hook and Magic Treasure Bag nowhere to be found.

Zhong Shenxiu, transformed into Lin Ruyu, was smilingly guarding the cave entrance, playing with the hook in his hand, and said, "Leng Yue Immortal, I have formed my Golden Core now and no longer need the help of female practitioners. If you fulfill one wish of mine, I swear I won’t harm a hair on your heads and will let you go. How about it?"

"What do you want?"

Leng Yue Immortal snapped coldly.

The young man has always admired the exquisite sword techniques of the Xuanmen Orthodox, but alas, he never received the true teachings...

Before Zhong Shenxiu could finish speaking, Leng Yue Immortal cursed, "Scoundrel’s wishful thinking, this is absolutely impossible!"

For Cultivators, the sect is more important than heaven.

Many Cultivators had been expelled from their sects and were close to taking their own lives. Those who willingly sacrificed themselves for their sect’s troubles were not few.

Betraying the sect would make one despised by all Cultivators, even Demon Pups would spit on them.

Leaking the Taixu Moon Concealing Sword Technique was out of the question, even if it meant killing Leng Yue Immortal.

"Immortal, do not be so definitive. Not just for yourself, but think also of your two disciples...I am not skilled, but I am also proficient in some of the Demon Sect’s interrogation and soul refining techniques, although I would rather not resort to that."

Zhong Shenxiu continued with a smile, "Otherwise, even if it means torturing the three of you to death and hanging your corpses at the gate of Taixu Sect to disgrace you, it wouldn’t be a problem..."

He expressed several malicious thoughts with a grin, causing Leng Yue Immortal’s forehead to sweat coldly, almost wanting to cry, "My fate is so bitter, why did I have to encounter this scourge?"

Looking again at the two young disciples by her side, she felt her heart soften somewhat.

Seeing this scene, Zhong Shenxiu felt certain but also somewhat irritated, "If every spell requires such coercion, it’s a bit too troublesome... It seems I need to think of a method."

"Taixu Sect is after all a major faction, descended from nobility, and it’s unknown what kind of trump cards they have hidden. It came from Da Jing after all. Better to be safer. Charging up the sect gate would be satisfying, but it could backfire if done rashly."

...

Several days later, Leng Yue Daoist indeed succumbed and confessed the Daoist Skills of the Taixu Sect.

These six skills from Taixu include the Void Refining Treasure Technique, Taixu Moon Concealing Sword Technique, Taixu Dao Scripture, Cloud Dragon Nine Transformations, Taixu Mutual Generation and Void Escape Array, and finally, the True Understanding of Taiyin.

Among them, the Taixu Dao Scripture is said to be transmitted from ancient times and is the fundamental Daoist Skill.

Leng Yue Immortal... truly didn’t know it.

She had only learned the True Understanding of Taiyin, using the power of moonlight to cultivate, and the swordfighting relied on the Taixu Moon Concealing Sword Technique.

Now, she had obediently confessed all.

"Thank you, Immortal, for telling the truth. Please wait a few more days. I have left food and water in the cave. In a few days, this restriction will also be lifted."

"Please rest assured, Immortal. I swear, if I harm the three of you, may Daohua’s Lin Ruyu die a violent death!"

Zhong Shenxiu finished speaking, bowed in thanks, and then transformed into a light of escape, heading towards the Taixu Sect.

"Capturing each one and interrogating them is really troublesome, and there’s no guarantee of getting true answers."

"To prevent the destruction of the heaven and earth and to maintain the peace of this realm, I don’t want to create more killings, I could only sacrifice myself a bit..."

...

Several days later.

When Leng Yue Immortal finally led her two disciples to escape unscathed, she was stupified by a piece of news that hit her like a thunderbolt:

— Leng Yue Immortal had attacked the head of Taixu Sect, stolen six of the Taixu orthodox techniques, and defected from the sect!

It doesn’t mention how she would deal with such a huge burden of false accusations.

At this time, Zhong Shenxiu had reverted to his original appearance and was heading to the Xuanhai Sect.

He preferred not to dwell on the events of the past few days, which were, after all, somewhat... awkward!

"Although the process was somewhat shameful, the peaceful resolution without much harm, the successful acquisition of the six Taixu techniques, the extraction of many ancient secrets, and the immediate surge in Heavenly Show Points by hundreds made this worthwhile..."

However, looking at the "Cross-Dressing Show" achievement displayed in the Heavenly Show System, Zhong Shenxiu still felt some embarrassment.

He pondered in silence, "This event will certainly be a dark history, and the three under Leng Yue Immortal will only think it was Mr. Daohua Lin Ruyu’s doing. The true perpetrator is known to heaven, earth, myself, and the system..."

"Heaven and earth... I can’t silence them for now, and I can’t eliminate myself, so the most pressing matter is to silence the Heavenly Show System!"

After mulling it over, Zhong Shenxiu wiped his face, sighed at the new low he had reached, and started pondering the six Taixu techniques.

Among them, the Void Refining Treasure Technique was a method for crafting magic treasures.

Although cleverly conceived, it wasn’t much; what Zhong Shenxiu truly valued were the descriptions regarding the Ancient Spiritual Treasures.

Yunlong Nine Transformations was an escape skill that could drastically alter directions, merge into sword light, and, it is said, change direction nine times in an instant, reputed to be the foremost escape skill of the Southern Wilderness.

He had already acquired the Taixu Moon Concealing Sword Technique, which was simply a sophisticated swordsmanship.

As for the Taixu Mutual Generation and Void Escape Array, it was the method of setting up the Taixu Sect’s Mountain Protection Array. The theft of this array diagram would likely force the Taixu Sect to modify the Mountain Protection Array extensively, and its effectiveness was uncertain.

As for the True Understanding of Taiyin, it was a profound technique within the Taixu Sect, seemingly a new method derived post-celestial changes.

Sadly, it only reached the Core Formation level, with the highest achievement being the Third Grade Taiyin Yuan Dan!

The last one, the Taixu Dao Scripture, was indeed Zhong Shenxiu’s true target.

"Taixu Sect claimed they had the ancient inheritances, and it turned out to be true. This scripture is truly complete, describing from Foundation Establishment to Golden Core, then Golden Core Nine Revolutions, all the way to Primordial Spirit, even discussing the cultivation of the Primordial Spirit and potential further realms..."

This scripture made Zhong Shenxiu realize that the ancient Immortal Law indeed flourished in this world.

But the path after the Primordial Spirit in the ancient Immortal Law was not the Dharma Body Realm, but one leap towards becoming an Immortal...

The description of Immortals was also very insightful, stating that there are five classes of Immortals: Heavenly, Earthly, Human, Divine, Ghost...

What about Corpse Resolve Immortals?

They belonged to a new class of Immortals, not classified within the five ranks.

Most of these secrets were extracted from the Taixu Sect’s ancestor by Zhong Shenxiu.

At this moment, he could not help but fall into contemplation, "Though the ancient methods are good, they have long been severed, not even the Primordial Spirit can be achieved... However, the discussion on becoming an Immortal is very insightful. The position of a Corpse Resolve Immortal is probably below the five ranks of Immortals, but that should be no problem... The rank of Immortals can still be improved. I’ll start as a Corpse Resolve Immortal, then progress along the ladder from Ghost, Divine, Human, Earthly, to Heavenly... Just what realms exist beyond Heavenly Immortals?"
