Chapter 53: Chapter 53 True Rigidity Divine Art



"Are there any specific requirements?" Yang Ji inquired further.

Jian Yuanzi said, "There are no specific requirements, you just need to pass Dao Sect's entrance assessment. The assessment comes in various forms; it could be completing tasks, making your way through the Dao Tower, battling with talented individuals from the Hundred Clans, breaking through formations, and so on—the methods are numerous and diverse."

Yang Ji then asked, "Are these assessments based on one's own strength? Can one choose the method of assessment?"

"They are more or less based on the strength of the person being assessed, but passing is very difficult, and one cannot choose freely, as the assessments are random."

"Only after passing the first assessment can you join Dao Sect, and then you have ten years of cultivation time. During this period, you can enjoy cultivation resources corresponding to your strength."

"After ten years, you must take a second assessment. If you pass again, you can cultivate within Dao Sect for a hundred years, and the resources available to you will increase. At the same time, the rewards granted to your original sect in your name will also grow. If you pass the third assessment, then you can stay in Dao Sect forever, enjoying endless resources."

Jian Yuanzi looked at Yang Ji and shook his head, "However, the assessments are full of unpredictability. At the moment, your foundation is still lacking, and the cultivation technique you practice is low-level. Your divine skills are mere half-measures of the Dao of Li Sword gleaned from the shadow of sword dao. Going to Dao Sect now, you stand no chance of passing their assessments."

"I hope you first accumulate a solid foundation and have ample confidence before you go. Failing not only wastes a slot, but you also lose the opportunity to enter Dao Sect ever again, which would be a huge loss for you personally."

"I was fortunate enough to pass two assessments back in my day and cultivated within Dao Sect for a total of one hundred and ten years, during which I also acquired the Four Techniques of the Gui Cang Sword Technique."

"I cannot decide on other divine techniques of our sect, but today, I can impart to you the entire Gui Cang Sword Technique."

Yang Ji hesitated, then looking up, he said, "Master, your sword technique comes from Dao Sect. Without the permission of Dao Sect, can I really learn it?"

Jian Yuanzi suddenly smiled, "Disciple, you need not worry. Dao Sect is not afraid of you learning it, they are afraid you won't be able to. The more you understand, the more you will realize the magnanimity of Dao Sect. You will come to know in time."

"Here are four Jade Slips, each containing the Dao of Li Sword, Dao of Xun Sword, Dao of the Kui Sword, and Shocking Sword Dao."

"Each of these sword daos on their own constitute a divine skill, and the fusion of the four is a great divine power. The Eight Swords of Gui Cang is a well-known great divine power in Dao Sect, very formidable. Otherwise, I would not have chosen it back then."

"Thank you, Master, for passing on the technique!" Yang Ji bowed deeply and accepted the Jade Slips.

Jian Yuanzi looked at him and then added, "You are now on the threshold of Foundation Establishment and urgently need a profound cultivation technique. Our Canglan Sect has twelve advanced cultivation techniques, five top-level techniques, and one technique at the level of Dao, which is incomplete with only three volumes, obtained by predecessors like myself from Dao Sect."

"A Dao-level cultivation technique?" Yang Ji's expression lit up with interest.

Seeing his enthusiastic appearance, Jian Yuanzi chuckled and said, "This Dao-level cultivation technique is called 'True Steel Dao Scripture'."

"The True Steel Dao Scripture cultivates Spiritual Power that is pure and unmatched, supremely rigid and yang, heavy as a Sinkstone, sharp as a Flying Sword, inherently keen."

"It can generate a thick protective aura on the surface of the body, and also project sword qi to slay enemies from thousands of miles away, efficient in both attack and defense."

"Effective in attack and defense, with Spiritual Power as sharp as a Flying Sword?" Yang Ji's eyes shone, "Master, wouldn't this cultivation technique combined with the Gui Cang Sword Technique be extraordinarily effective? If I pursue the path of a sword immortal, wouldn't my sword strike possess even greater power?"

Yang Ji grew more and more fond of it as he listened, and possessing such a domineering technique invisibly boosted his confidence considerably.

"Disciple, the top five cultivation techniques can support your practice up to the Divinity Transformation Realm, but this 'True Steel Dao Scripture' can only support your practice up to the Golden Core Realm. If you want the subsequent techniques, you have to obtain them from the Dao Sect," Jian Yuanzi said.

"If you cultivate this technique and fail to join the Dao Sect subsequently, it will take a huge amount of time to change to another technique and start over, and the transformation of spiritual power will be difficult. You need to think it over carefully." The seriousness was evident on Jian Yuanzi's face.

"If I don't even have the confidence to join the Dao Sect, how can I speak of the path to immortality later on? In the end, we all die once, why not fight with all our might? Master, I choose the 'True Steel Dao Scripture'. I will obtain the subsequent techniques from the Dao Sect myself," Yang Ji stated firmly.

Jian Yuanzi was taken aback, staring at him steadily before he sighed with emotion, "Your choice is exactly the same as Chang Xiao's. Both of you are full of confidence, without a hint of hesitation."

"When I made my choice years ago, I pondered for three days and three nights, and in the end, I still didn't choose this cultivation technique. It seems that compared to you both, I lacked the great courage that comes from desperation," he confessed.

"Hearing your choice, I faintly feel that our Canglan Sect may reach a new height because of you and Chang Xiao," he said.

"Master, I will not fail your expectations nor the nurturing of the sect. When it comes to contending on the Great Dao, I will carve out the path ahead with the sword in my hand," Yang Ji vowed solemnly.

"What a powerful statement about contending on the Great Dao! It is I who have lost my edge. Since you have such determination, I will join you in this struggle," his master responded with admiration.

Jian Yuanzi's eyebrows suddenly bristled with a spirited air, "I originally thought to reach Divinity Transformation and then end my life, but it was you, disciple, who awakened me. The path to immortality is long, and one should strive and seize it, never losing one's vitality or the original aspiration for seeking the Dao."

"Once a person sets limits on their path, they lose the courage to bet everything, the pride of 'who if not me,' and the sharpness to advance bravely. In the end, they will lead a mediocre life and pass away unremarkably."

"The sharp and resolute character you've shown is fit for the path of the sword immortal. You will undoubtedly go further than your master."

"Since you have made your choice, then I will obtain the cultivation technique for you. However, there are only the first two volumes; to obtain the subsequent one, you must display extraordinary insight and talent," Jian Yuanzi said.

"Thank you, Master. I understand," Yang Ji bowed and replied.

"Mm, I'll be right back!" With that, Jian Yuanzi stood up and walked out of the grand hall.

In less than the time it takes to brew a cup of tea, he returned, bringing not only the cultivation technique for Yang Ji but also an identity token, the distinctive white robes of the Canglan Sect, and medicine pills for cultivation.

Jian Yuanzi took out a medicine bottle and said, "This is a Demon Essence Pill, concocted with a three hundred years' worth of Demon Companion Herb and the demon core of a Demon General Level Beast."

"There are twenty pills in this bottle. I've provided enough medicine pills; just let me know when you use them all up. However, for now, this is the highest grade available. If your insight and talent prove to be strong in the future, your treatment will be upgraded."

"Four hundred years' worth or even five to six hundred years' worth of Demon Companion Herb, combined with a Demon Marshal Level Demon Core or even you personally slaying a Demon King for alchemy, is possible," he explained.

As he spoke, Jian Yuanzi handed over the items to Yang Ji.

Yang Ji respectfully accepted them.

"Disciple, there is a cultivation chamber behind this great hall. You can cultivate there without worries. I'll take care of the rest," Jian Yuanzi said.

"Thank you, Master!" Yang Ji bowed deeply, touched by the tangible benefits of the sect and the care of his master. He turned and walked towards the chamber for his own sake and for the sect's future.
