As powerful as the cultivation techniques of the Cultivation Technique Forest were, they were all rooted in the heritage of Sage Kui and the others.
It was for this reason that whenever an Ancient Sage realm cultivation technique appeared, the will on the stone tablet would automatically be suppressed, and it would be filled with awe and respect.
This Zhang Shi turned one round, and the words became like this. Could it be that he had cultivated this level of cultivation technique?
It was precisely because of this that he looked down on other cultivation methods. The so-called learning was just a reference?
"Yang shi has already reached such a level?"
He speculated in his heart and was filled with respect.
Considering that Zhang Xuan was Yang shi's direct disciple, the fact that he was able to learn a cultivation technique of such a level could only mean that Yang shi had either reached that realm or had inherited the heritage of an Ancient Sage.
No matter which one it was, it was not something he could make wild guesses about.
"This matter must not be leaked out …"
Zhan shi's eyebrows shot up in alarm.
If his conjecture was correct, he would have to instruct Zhang Xuan not to reveal his cultivation technique carelessly. Otherwise, if he were to be discovered by the Otherworldly Demons or other hostile occupations, his life might be in danger.
Even though Zhang Xuan had reached Saint 9-dan, in truth, he was only a Half Nine Stars master teacher. A true Nine Stars master teacher was an existence beyond Saint 9-dan.
Upon reaching this level of strength, it was said that one would be tempered by the flames of heaven and earth. Both one's physical body and soul would be baptized, and even one's lifespan would increase.
At this level of cultivation, he was already immune to all poisons. Even if he had been poisoned in the past, the flames would have burned him clean, leaving no trace behind.
It was for this reason that he had been trying to push for a breakthrough to Saint 9-dan all these years, but it was a pity that he was still unable to even reach Saint 9-dan intermediate stage.
At this level, any small increase would be a huge leap. It was no longer as easy as before.
Creak!
Just as Zhang Xuan was deep in thought, the door to the chamber suddenly opened, and a figure walked out.
"Zhang Shi, your … strength!"
Zhan shi turned his head over to take a look, and his eyes widened in astonishment. His body swayed weakly, and he nearly fell to the ground.
The other party had only been in there for four hours, so how did his cultivation suddenly rise from Half-Grand Dominion realm to Grand Dominion realm pinnacle?
This was equivalent to advancing to a whole new level. Wasn't this too fast?
"That's why I managed to make a breakthrough a little faster. In the future, it might become slower and slower …"
Seeing the other party's expression, Zhang Xuan explained.
The Heaven's Path Divine Art paired with sufficient spirit stones was indeed a frightening feat. However, the higher one's cultivation rose, the slower one's rate of improvement would be.
"It's a good thing to achieve breakthroughs in cultivation quickly, but you have to be careful. If you do it too quickly, your zhenqi will become unstable …"
It took a moment for Zhan shi to console Zhang Xuan.
Some people who activated their bloodlines and special constitutions could improve very quickly, allowing their cultivation to reach the peak in a short period of time. However, if they really did that, their cultivation would become a little superficial, and it would be extremely difficult for them to improve further.
Just like some people who won the lottery in gambling, it would be difficult for them to continue working step by step in the future.
If the disparity was too great, one's mentality would not be able to bear it.
Due to this, even if one were to awaken one's bloodline or constitution, under normal circumstances, one would have to stop for a period of time after advancing one or a few levels to consolidate their cultivation. Only when they were able to unleash their full strength would they continue to break through.
"I know. I have been reinforcing my Half-Grand Dominion realm cultivation for more than a day now. It's about time for me to make a breakthrough!"
Zhang Xuan nodded in agreement.
"A day?" Hearing those words, Zhan shi's face twitched, and he nearly fell to the ground. "How long have you been reinforcing your Saint 5-dan cultivation?"
Even top-notch geniuses would require several years to reinforce their Half-Grand Dominion realm cultivation, and yet, you only took a single day … More importantly, you are still looking at me with such a matter-of-fact look on your face!
"Saint 5-dan … It took me around twenty days. I managed to achieve a breakthrough to Leaving Aperture realm on the day I entered the Sanctum of Sages …"
Zhang Xuan pondered for a moment before replying.
"Twenty days …"
Zhan shi turned to Zhang Xuan and asked, "Then … how long has it been since you started cultivating?"
"Since I started cultivating?"
Not expecting Zhan shi to ask such a question, Zhang Xuan did a rough calculation and replied, "Roughly thirteen months, or more than a year!"
If not for the fact that he had transcended over to a remote place like the Tianxuan Kingdom but the Sanctum of Sages, he would have been able to reach his current cultivation within a month.
Thirteen times more than that …
Just the thought of it left Zhang Xuan feeling stifled.
"…" Zhan shi suddenly felt that he did not want to speak to the young man before him anymore.
To advance from Fighter to Saint 6-dan pinnacle within thirteen months … That was a speed that was far faster than even the little princess of the Luo Clan. Yet, judging from the other party's expression, it seemed like he thought that it was too slow.
Don't you have any shame?
"Right, Zhan shi, do you have any Saint 7-dan cultivation technique manuals? Can you lend me some? "
Zhang Xuan paid no heed to the other party's thoughts.
Since his cultivation had reached Grand Dominion realm pinnacle, he decided to check if there were any more books on Phantasmal Space realm cultivation. He still had two pinnacle spirit stones left, so he might as well make use of this opportunity to make a breakthrough.
He had nothing to do anyway.
"A Saint 7-dan cultivation technique? I don't have a cultivation technique of that level with me, but if you wish to take a look at it, you'll have to head to the Alley of Puppets. If you clear the trial, you'll be given a chance to choose a cultivation technique … "
Zhan shi shook his head.
With his current strength, Saint 7-dan cultivation technique manuals were no longer of any use to him, so there was no need for him to carry them around with him.
"Oh!" Zhang Xuan nodded.
He had been to the Alley of Puppets once, and the entire place had been reduced to rubble. It would be embarrassing for him to head there again.
However, since the other party did not have any cultivation technique manuals, it would not be appropriate for him to pursue the matter any further. Just as he was about to continue speaking, Zhan shi suddenly flicked his wrist, and a Communication Jade Token appeared in his palm.
"Why is he looking for me?"
Zhan shi took a look at the Communication Jade Token and frowned. He tapped on it, and the bizarre look on his face deepened. "He's not looking for me … he wants to meet you!"
"Meet me?"
Zhang Xuan was taken aback. "Who is it?"
"Jian Qinsheng!" Zhan shi replied.
"Him?" Zhang Xuan frowned.
Jian Qinsheng was a descendant of the Fourth Sanctum Head, Jian Liushui, and he had learned the Flowing Water Swordsmanship from him.
After pummeling Jian Qinsheng the last time around, he had gone completely silent. Why would Jian Qinsheng suddenly want to meet him today?
"Let's go out. He's waiting outside!"
Zhan shi said.
"Alright!"
Zhang Xuan had no idea what Jian Qinsheng's motive was, but he had always been grateful to Jian Qinsheng for allowing him to browse through his books for free. Since Jian Qinsheng wanted to meet him, there was no way he would turn him down.
The two of them quickly left the Inner Sanctum, and as expected, Jian Qinsheng was standing in a gazebo by the side of a lake. Upon seeing them, his eyes lit up, and he quickly flew over.
"Deputy Sanctum Head Zhang Shi!"
Jian Qinsheng clasped his fist and greeted Zhang Xuan.
"May I know what business you have with me?"
After exchanging a few pleasantries, Zhang Xuan asked.
"This … I have something that I would like to trouble you with!"
Jian Qinsheng hesitated for a moment before replying awkwardly.
"Zhang Shi, can you accompany me to the Zhang Clan?"
