Chapter 1091: Chapter 1091: Langya Cave Heaven

“`

In a trance, the Divine Soul returned to its place.

Wang Chen’s consciousness gradually revived, his vision becoming clearer, and a perpetually lit lamp appeared before his eyes.

He had returned.

Wang Chen couldn’t help but take a long breath.

This descent into the Cangqing Domain did not last long.

But it felt like a vast stretch of time had passed.

It felt somewhat unreal.

However, before Wang Chen could fully awaken, a vast aura abruptly descended upon him.

In an instant, his cultivation level broke through the bottleneck of the eighth tier, advancing into the ninth tier realm in one fell swoop.

And it kept climbing.

It wasn’t until the pinnacle of the ninth tier Golden Core, on the cusp of Breaking the Golden Core to Condense the Nascent Soul, that Wang Chen suddenly became fully alert, immediately suppressing the instinctual impulse.

He had encountered such situations before.

Undoubtedly, this was a reward from the Heavenly Dao of the Haotian Realm, rewarding Wang Chen for bringing the Source Force of the Lower Realm to this world.

But now was not a good time to break through a great realm. Wang Chen had made no preparations, and a forced breakthrough, if failed, would have unimaginable consequences. Years of hard work could very likely be lost in one stroke!

Thus, despite the great temptation to directly ascend to Nascent Soul, it was firmly suppressed by Wang Chen’s strong will.

He still needed more accumulation.

Closing his eyes, Wang Chen began to practice and circulate his breath, silently digesting the gains from this episode.

Three days later, Wang Chen emerged from seclusion.

After coming out, he summoned Su Ziling to ask if anything had happened during his period of seclusion.

The answer was that all was well, and no accidents had occurred.

But Huangfu Yongchun had sent two Flying Sword Messages, evidently having some important matter to discuss with him.

Su Ziling also presented two letters to Wang Chen.

Wang Chen read through each of them.

He pondered for a moment, then replied to the other party with a letter of his own.

To Wang Chen’s surprise, Huangfu Yongchun promptly responded with another letter, inviting him to meet at the Gathering Immortals Pavilion.

The meeting time was set for five days later.

Wang Chen accepted.

After bathing and changing with Su Ziling’s assistance, Wang Chen donned a new Taoist robe and left the residence, heading to the Myriad Treasures Pavilion in the Luodu Immortal City.

In the past, Wang Chen’s purchases and sales were always done through the Four Seas Commerce Association, and he didn’t conduct much business with Myriad Treasures Pavilion.

However, he had recently made considerable transactions with the Four Seas Commerce Association, and for safety reasons, he chose to go to Myriad Treasures Pavilion this time.

In fact, in terms of strength and reputation, Myriad Treasures Pavilion is a notch above the Four Seas Commerce Association.

It’s just that Myriad Treasures Pavilion never engages in low-end business, and the prices are relatively higher, frequented by those with substantial wealth.

Wang Chen did not earn his Spirit Stones easily, naturally, he would save where he could.

The time he spent from entering the Myriad Treasures Pavilion to leaving did not exceed half an incense stick’s duration; his storage ring was short of a thousand Upper Spirits, yet now contained an additional Cultivation Technique Jade Slip.

The Cultivation Technique that Wang Chen purchased at Myriad Treasures Pavilion was named “Taiqing Concealing Technique,” a high-order Dharma Technique for concealing one’s own aura. It had excellent effects, whether for hiding oneself or masking one’s cultivation level.

The Taiqing Concealing Technique is a fourth-tier Dharma Technique, and according to Myriad Treasures Pavilion, if cultivated to a sufficiently high level, it would be very difficult for cultivators of even a higher great realm to detect.

Therefore, it perfectly met Wang Chen’s needs.

“`

His cultivation realm had advanced too swiftly; if he did not conceal it, it would easily invite unnecessary trouble.

Not to mention Golden Core True Persons, even successfully breaking the Golden Core to condense the Nascent Soul is not considered very powerful in the Haotian Realm. As a lone Loose Cultivator, it is only natural to maintain caution and carefulness.

In the following days, Wang Chen devoted all his time and energy to mastering and understanding this Cultivation Technique, and on the third day, he took the first step into learning the Taiqing Concealing Technique.

During the training process, he unexpectedly discovered that the Taiqing Concealing Technique was highly compatible with the Mystical Mirage Dragon Jue he had been practicing before, sharing many commonalities.

This was also an important reason why Wang Chen was able to grasp it so quickly.

It should be noted that the Taiqing Concealing Technique is a fourth-tier Spell. Although it is not a Heart Method secret, it still surpassed Wang Chen’s current Cultivation Realm.

Of course, advancing from beginner to mastery would not be so easy.

However, Wang Chen was already very satisfied because with the beginner level of the Taiqing Concealing Technique, he could suppress his own aura within the seven layers of the Golden Core, so as not to reveal his true power.

With this Spell’s enhancement, Wang Chen confidently set out to meet the appointment with Huangfu Yongchun.

This was actually very important, because during their last meeting, he was only at the seventh layer of the Golden Core realm.

If in just this short span of time, Wang Chen had broken through to the peak of the ninth layer, it would have been rather strange for Huangfu Yongchun not to react at all.

Wang Chen knew very few people in Luodu Immortal City, yet that was no excuse to neglect necessary precautions.

You must never test human nature!

The meeting place was still the old location, inside the private room of the Gathering Immortals Pavilion. However, when Wang Chen arrived, he found that only Huangfu Yongchun was there.

There were no other members of the Qijue Club present.

“True Person Wang, please take a seat!”

Upon seeing Wang Chen, Huangfu Yongchun showed a warm smile: “This time I was presumptuous, I hope I did not affect your cultivation.”

“It’s fine.”

Wang Chen gestured with his hand and sat opposite Huangfu Yongchun.

He asked curiously, “True Person Huangfu, what is it that you need to speak to me about?”

Huangfu Yongchun pondered for a moment.

This High-Order Golden Core cultivator first poured a cup of Spiritual Tea for Wang Chen, then with a wave of his sleeve, he closed the door and with the snap of his fingers, cast a Spell to isolate the inside from the outside, ensuring that their conversation would not be overheard by others.

Actually, the private rooms of the Gathering Immortals Pavilion are extremely secure, so there was no need to worry about eavesdroppers.

Huangfu Yongchun taking such serious precautions meant that Wang Chen knew the matter was not simple.

Indeed, he heard Huangfu Yongchun start to say, “True Person Wang, I believe I have mentioned the origin of the Qijue Sword Technique to you before, right?”

Wang Chen nodded.

He remembered that when he had received the Leijue Sword Technique from Huangfu Yongchun, the latter had mentioned that this Swordsmanship came from the legacy of an ancient Cave Mansion.

It must have been a rare opportunity for this High-Order Golden Core cultivator.

Such opportunities for cultivators, although elusive and not actively sought after, have been encountered by countless individuals throughout history.

It is common for cultivators to reach the heavens in one step through such fortunes.

Huangfu Yongchun took a deep breath and continued, “I won’t hide it from you, the Qijue Sword Technique actually comes from a Cave Heaven known as Langya Residence!”

Langya Cave Heaven!

Wang Chen quickly understood that the fortune Huangfu Yongchun had encountered was no small matter.

The places where cultivators practice can be divided into Cave Mansions, Cave Heavens, and Secret Realms. Cave Mansions are the most common and ordinary, just like the residence where Wang Chen currently lives can be called a Cave Mansion.

However, Cave Heavens are different. They have a much higher standard and belong to the exclusive territory of cultivators above the Golden Core realm.

Yet Wang Chen had no desire to covet such things, because he possessed a small world known as the Cangqing Domain, which is an existence even higher than a Secret Realm!

With such a powerful trump card, Wang Chen need not envy anyone.
