"So, the foundational spells can’t be repaired at random, but instead need to be combined, prioritizing the refinement of Divine Skills,"

"The permutations and combinations of these spells, the secrets of the sequence, that is the closely guarded secret of the Daoist School."

"If a Loose Cultivator without an inheritance does not understand the profundity within and occupies all seventeen spell positions, only to discover that not a single Divine Skill can be combined, that would be incredibly frustrating. Fear that at that point, one would really have no choice but to discard one’s Mana and start over, or else there would be no hope of advancing."

"In addition to that, the level of Divine Skills obtained, as well as the number of Divine Skills one can refine, is also the biggest root cause of differentials in combat power within the Divine Power Realm."

Ordinary inheritances managed to amalgamate just one Divine Skill, and even that was of the lowest quality.

Superior inheritances, on the other hand, cultivated three or four Divine Skills, each one incredibly potent.

The disparity in strength this represents is truly terrifying.

Zhong Shenxiu reflected inwardly, feeling he had gained a great deal.

"Sure enough... pretending to be a Superpower Expert was the right move. This kind of top-secret information would usually never be shared with Su Daoshi; otherwise, that would really be hitting a dead end without knowing what’s going on."

As he contemplated, he noticed that the three Gang Sha Realm cultivators present, including Spiritual Crane Daoist, seemed thoughtful but confident, obviously unafraid since they had the Cloud Mirror Sect Daoist Skills, Divine Powers, and even the chance of obtaining the Primordial Pill.

Lu Swordman didn’t seem too afraid either, perhaps the inheritance he received had already explained as much.

But Crow Elder, on the other hand, was truly stunned; evidently, no one had ever explained this to him before.

And he had already cultivated to the stage of swallowing eight Yangs, having nearly finished his path in the Gang Sha Realm, which could be said to be almost set in stone.

As for starting from scratch, that is the worst option. Not to mention whether there’s still a chance, time, or even the Daoist Skill inheritances...

Just discarding one’s Daoist Skills could potentially cause fundamental damage to the body, after all, that Gang Qi and Evil Qi have long since been integrated into the body.

"Senior, save me, senior save me!"

Crow Elder, transformed into a paper crow, wailed unceasingly, begging repeatedly.

"It’s too late, too late."

White Bone Scholar said indifferently, slowly shaking his head, "Your foundation is set in stone, unless you discard everything and switch to my White Bone Daoist Skill, otherwise how can I save you? Even if you are willing to do so, I might not be willing to accept you as a disciple."

Crow Elder couldn’t help but despair.

Feiluan Woman Crown glanced at Zhong Shenxiu, who was silent, and suddenly said, "In fact, there is still some hope. The inheritance you’ve received is rough, without the method to gather Divine Powers, but that doesn’t mean that your personal skills are all useless... If you can find a Divine Skill that fits perfectly with your existing Yin Evil Technique, and then specifically refine a Yang Gang Skill, even if you can only form a lower-quality Divine Skill, you can still ascend to the Divine Power Realm, it’s just..."

Zhong Shenxiu shook his head, knowing what she left unsaid.

How secret is a cultivator’s fundamental techniques? How could Crow Elder be willing to disclose them?

Besides, whether or not one can find the appropriate Divine Skill is a big issue.

Unless Crow Elder was a disciple of some major Daoist Sect; the larger the sect, the more Spells and Divine Skills they collect, and the more likely they are to make up for deficiencies.

If that were the case, they wouldn’t have fallen to such a state.

"Thank you for the advice, seniors, thank you for the pointers."

Crow Elder was tearfully grateful and filled with regret.

He had already set his path well into motion, afraid that Divine Power was truly out of reach. If he had heard these words when he was younger, he wouldn’t have ended up like this.

Even if the Paper Folding, Paper Cutting Technique was powerful and allowed him to dominate the Gang Sha Realm, so what?

Without achieving Divine Power, a cultivator’s Life Span shows almost no change. When old age comes, just like everyone else, they become a handful of yellow soil.

"Little Swordsman, what brings you here?"

After finishing with a smile, White Bone Scholar looked at Lu Swordman, obviously intending to clear the field a bit.

Superpower Experts naturally possess a sense of pride, even overlooking Spiritual Crane with its sect’s support, let alone a Loose Cultivator.

Under ordinary circumstances, they wouldn’t even attend this Black Mountain Small Meeting, preferring to focus solely on deep cultivation.

It was only because Zhong Shenxiu showed up that things were so lively.

"I have a request as well, hoping a senior could lend a hand and accompany me to the Poison Dragon Cave to hunt down forty-nine venomous pythons!"

Lu Swordman spoke up, and it actually wasn’t about needing Metal Evil Qi; perhaps he had already obtained what he needed?

"The pythons in Poison Dragon Cave are of a strange breed, and there’s the Poison Dragon Venerable as well, who is a superpower expert, and he has even refined a Poison Dragon Sword, not someone to be easily provoked."

Fei Luan asked with interest, "Little swordsman, do you intend to use the venomous python for cultivating your skills or for artifact refining? And what price can you pay for it?"

"What about a piece of thousand-year-old cold iron?"

Lu the swordsman was not intimidated and responded, "This is an excellent material for refining flying swords, if you help me hunt the poison python, you might not necessarily provoke the Poison Dragon Venerable."

"We’ll talk further! You may leave now."

The White Bone Scholar waved his hand as if shooing away a fly.

Lu the swordsman stiffened for a moment then fell silent and stood up to leave.

"Hehe, I thought he was a true sword cultivator, a common man’s rage, blood spilling five steps," the White Bone Scholar shook his head and sighed.

"What is brittle easily breaks, I actually have high hopes for this man, if he really could get hold of a sword cultivation classic, his future would be boundless," Fei Luan said, smilingly pointing at Crow Elder.

Though Crow Elder was reluctant, he had to stand up, bid farewell, and leave.

"Young Master Shen Xiu, how about the three of us have a private conversation?"

The White Bone Scholar said with a grin, not taking the Spiritual Crane Daoist next to him seriously.

"I..."

The Spiritual Crane Daoist was internally anxious, "This senior has yet to answer my question..."

"Sorry, I’ve always been accustomed to freedom, I don’t like being bound by sect rules," Zhong Shenxiu waved his hand.

If he could trade for a heritage, it would naturally be wonderful, but joining Cloud Mirror Sect and being tied to their battles was not too appealing.

What he had gained today already satisfied him, and he wasn’t afraid of being tricked in the future.

As for cultivation heritage? With the strength of Divine Power Realm, he could potentially seize it forcefully, even kill and Soul Search to obtain it.

"I take my leave," said the Spiritual Crane Daoist, who also had a temper. In his mind, he kept repeating one phrase: ’Once I achieve Divine Powers, I must show you how formidable I am.’

But he couldn’t resist at the moment and similarly left.

Seeing this scene, Fei Luan released a magic artifact, which was a brocade handkerchief. It emitted a colorful glow, transforming into a screen of light that enveloped the three of them.

"Under this Rainbow-Threaded Silken Screen, we can comfortably have our conversation, safe from eavesdroppers," Fei Luan said with a smile.

"Fairy’s skills are indeed exquisite," laughed the White Bone Scholar, clapping his hand.

"I wonder why you two are being so cautious, what is the matter?" Zhong Shenxiu asked, looking at the scene, but he was not nervous, just curious.

"It can only be about how to form the Primordial Pill," replied the Feiluan Woman Crown.

"Oh?"

Zhong Shenxiu’s eyes narrowed slightly, as if emitting a sharp light.

In reality, as a fourth-tier professional, even if he obtained a natural treasure that could aid in Core Formation, he couldn’t ascend to fifth tier.

He was in the wrong system altogether!

"Has fellow Daoist ever heard of Dragon and Tiger True Man?"

The White Bone Scholar hinted with a sentence.

"That number one loose cultivator, who is only one step away from Core Formation? Of course, I’ve heard of him," Zhong Shenxiu nodded.

"This matter falls on him, the opportunity involved is definitely enough for us to divide, you are not the first person we’ve approached," laughed the White Bone Scholar heartily.

"So you two are in cahoots," Zhong Shenxiu suddenly realized, "What are the details?"

"One should avoid discussing details superficially. Let’s talk about other trades instead,"

said the Feiluan Woman Crown, "Like the heritage you’re seeking... hehe, I’m sure it won’t disappoint you."
