Nobody paid attention to the Spirit Pool Mountain, so naturally, nobody noticed the actions of the Sea Scouring Sect. Because of this, the Sea Scouring Sect was able to recruit a lot of people.
In fact, Zhao Hai has already discovered that the ascended people seemed to have been cleansed after coming out of the Spirit Pool Mountain. Their bodies became very pure. Although they looked the same as before, their bodies were more suitable for cultivation compared to ordinary people. Moreover, they had rich experience in cultivation. Because of this, if these people were able to cultivate, then their combat strength would be incomparably powerful.
However, if it was really that simple, then the Great Sects would have already divided the Spirit Pool Mountain and not left it to the Sea Scouring Sect.
In fact, Zhao Hai also discovered that although the bodies of the people who ascended from the lower realms had been cleansed, if they didn't find a suitable cultivation method or use pills, then they wouldn't be able to make any progress in their cultivation.
This sounded a little strange. Why was it that their bodies had become pure, but they couldn't cultivate anything? Wasn't this very strange?
In fact, this wasn't the case. After these people ascended, their bodies were indeed cleansed and became pure. However, during this process, some of the water from the Spirit Pool Mountain remained in their bodies. This water had a very strong purification ability. Therefore, when they first started cultivating, a part of their spiritual energy would be purified by this water. If you don't use special methods to expel this water from your body, then most of your spiritual energy would be purified and there wouldn't be any results at all.
As for medicinal pills, it was even more so. All medicinal pills were poisonous to some extent. Therefore, in the process of cultivation, although cultivators could not do without medicinal pills, they would also look for some ways to remove the medicinal poison. Otherwise, the toxins in the body would accumulate more and more. In the end, they might completely lose the opportunity to advance.
In fact, in the Cultivation World, there were a lot of cultivators who had the wrong idea. They believed that eating food would also produce toxins in the body. These toxins were even more terrible than medicinal toxins. Because of this, some cultivators grew up eating Fasting Pills and other pills. They thought that this way, the toxins in their bodies would be reduced and they would be able to cultivate to a higher realm.
However, this was actually a completely wrong idea. People said that medicine was 30% poisonous, but there was no such thing as eating 30% poisonous. In fact, if a person only ate medicine and didn't eat food, then even if the medicine provided the nutrients they needed, they would still be poisoned to death in the end. They wouldn't be able to live longer than a person who ate food.
The food you eat will produce toxins. However, you can digest a part of these toxins by yourself. You can also use spiritual qi to expel a part of it. You can even eat Detoxification Pills. Because of this, the amount of toxins left in your body wouldn't be a lot.
On the other hand, eating pills was different. The toxins produced by pills would be more closely integrated with your body. You wouldn't be able to detect the toxins easily. However, by the time you notice it, the toxins would already be inseparable from your body. If the toxins produced by eating pills were less, then everyone would just go and eat pills. Who would want to eat?
The spiritual pond water in Spirit Pond Mountain can purify the poison of pills. But at the same time, the spiritual pond water in one's body can also purify the pills. Because of this, people who ascended wouldn't be able to cultivate very fast in the first few years. They might even be very slow. Even if they ate pills, they wouldn't be able to cultivate fast.
Because of this, everyone had a misunderstanding about ascended people. Everyone thought that because ascended people were too old, they were no longer suitable for cultivation. Naturally, the Great Sects would look down on them.
However, Zhao Hai later discovered that the spirit pond water was actually very easy to remove. As long as he helped these ascended people remove the spirit pond water from their bodies, then their cultivation speed would increase by leaps and bounds. After all, these people were all geniuses in the lower realms. They were much stronger than the so-called geniuses in the Sword Spirit Realm. If they weren't geniuses, then it would be impossible for them to ascend to the Will Realm.
Removing the spiritual pond water was actually very simple. First, one would need to practice a Body Cultivation Method for a period of time. While practicing Body Cultivation Methods, one would also need to take a medicinal bath. After a month, the spiritual pond water would be removed from their bodies. Afterwards, regardless of whether they practiced a Body Cultivation Method or another Cultivation Method, their cultivation speed would be very fast.
However, how could ordinary ascended people have such conditions? How could they have the opportunity to practice a Body Cultivation Method in the Sword Spirit Realm? How could they have the opportunity to take a medicinal bath? One must know that medicinal baths were only given to the disciples of the Great Sects. How could ascended people have such treatment? Because of this, nobody discovered that these ascended people could actually become geniuses.
However, Zhao Hai knew about this method. It was precisely because of this that he accepted the ascended people into the Sea Exploring Sect. This was because once these people enter the sect, they would be able to practice the Iron Buddha Technique as well as take medicinal baths. This way, they would be able to become geniuses once again.
However, the Sea Exploring Sect didn't reveal this method. This was because this method was unique to them. The other Sects didn't know about it. Because of this, the other Sects didn't pay attention to the ascended people in the Spirit Pond Mountain. This allowed the Sea Exploring Sect to boldly recruit disciples.
Although the Sea Exploring Sect didn't expand, the other Sword Cultivator Sects had already sided with them. This allowed the Sea Exploring Sect's strength to increase by a lot. So how could they expand? With so many Sects eyeing them, wouldn't they be looking for trouble if they were to expand?
Not only did the Sea Exploring Sect not expand, they also didn't allow the other Sects of the Sword Cultivator Alliance to expand. These Sects had suffered great losses. They could recruit Rogue Cultivators to restore their strength, but they couldn't expand. This was an order given by Zhao Hai. If a Sword Cultivator Sect didn't listen to him and expanded, then Zhao Hai wouldn't be polite.
One must know that a lot of Supreme Elders in the Sword Cultivator Sects came from the Sea Exploring Sect. If Zhao Hai wanted to teach these Sects a lesson, then it would be very easy.
It was precisely because of the Sea Exploration Sect's strength and the fact that they had so many Supreme Elders that the other sword cultivator sects didn't dare to disobey the Sea Exploration Sect. Therefore, the Sword Cultivator Alliance was as low-key as the Sea Exploration Sect.
Originally, no matter how low-key the Scouring Sea Sect was, there would still be people paying attention to them. This was because their development was too fast. Moreover, they even became the Alliance Leader of the Sword Cultivator Alliance. Unless the Scouring Sea Sect didn't do anything, they would do something earth-shattering. It was precisely because of this that the other sects paid attention to them.
However, something happened that attracted the attention of the entire Sword Spirit World. No one paid attention to the Scouring Sea Sect anymore because this time, the Scouring Sea Sect really didn't have anything to do with it. Even the Scouring Sea Sect and the entire Sword Cultivator Alliance didn't participate. The ones who participated were the other big sects led by the Myriad Buddha Temple and the Heaven First Dao Sect.
The Myriad Buddha Temple and the Tianyi Dao Sect led a few small Sects in the Thirteen Cities of Mount Mang. However, these small Sects were too close to the Thirteen Cities of Mount Mang. Naturally, the people of the Thirteen Cities of Mount Mang wouldn't let this happen. Therefore, the people of the Thirteen Cities of Mount Mang directly destroyed these small Sects.
Destroying these small Sects wasn't a big deal. However, the Myriad Buddha Temple and the Tianyi Dao Sect directly announced that the people of the Thirteen Cities of Mount Mang had killed their Sects' disciples for no reason. They wanted revenge, so they directly attacked the Thirteen Cities of Mount Mang.
Although the Thirteen Cities of Mount Mang were usually independent and would even attack each other, they were still very united when faced with an external enemy. It was precisely because of this that the Thirteen Cities of Mount Mang could exist until now.
Now that they were facing the attack of the other Sects led by the Myriad Buddha Temple and the Tianyi Dao Sect, they naturally wouldn't resign themselves to death. Therefore, they directly went to war with the other Sects.
In fact, there wasn't much suspense in this battle. With the strength of the 13 Cities of Mount Mang, how could they withstand the attacks of the major sects? If there was only one sect attacking them, then they could still fight to the death and force the other party to retreat. However, what they were facing now was the alliance of several major sects. Among them, there were also countless small sects helping the major sects. Because of this, it was impossible for the people of the 13 Cities of Mount Mang to withstand the attacks of the major sects.
However, the strength of the people of the Thirteen Cities of Mount Mang was beyond everyone's imagination. From the very beginning, they began to fight recklessly with the other Sects. This caused the alliance of the Myriad Buddha Temple and the Tianyi Dao Sect to suffer a great loss. One must know that the strength of the Mang Mountain Sect in the past was not weak. Their cultivation techniques were also unique.
Later on, the people of the Thirteen Cities of Mount Mang suffered too great a loss. They made a decision that no one would have thought of. They retreated to Mount Mang. In Mount Mang, there were the ruins of the Mang Mountain Sect. In fact, that place had already been destroyed. The people of the Thirteen Cities of Mount Mang actually retreated to Mount Mang. This was really beyond everyone's expectations.
However, the other Sects soon knew why the people of the Thirteen Cities of Mount Mang retreated to Mount Mang. It wasn't because there was a Mountain Protecting Formation or something like that. Instead, they wanted to use the terrain of Mount Mang to deal with the other Sects. One must know that no one knew Mount Mang better than the people of the Thirteen Cities of Mount Mang. Therefore, when they retreated to Mount Mang and used the terrain of Mount Mang to deal with the other Sects, the good days of the other Sects came to an end.
In the past, the people of the Mang Mountain Sect paid great attention to stealth and assassination. They were also famous for this. Now that they began to use the terrain of Mount Mang to deal with the other Sects, they naturally used stealth and assassination methods. For a while, the other Sects couldn't do anything to them.
