While they were discussing how to expose his identity, on the back of the Great Violetwing Beast, Zhang Xuan and Lozosy were standing by the window, gazing at the white clouds flitting past them calmly.
"The Saint Ascension Platform is where Kong Shi ascended to Celestial Saint. Not only did he leave his words on the cliff face, he even left a sliver of his will as a gift to the fated one. Since you are both Celestial Master Teachers, you might be able to obtain it!"
Lozosy said with a smile.
"A sliver of his will?" Zhang Xuan's eyes lit up.
As the founder of the Master Teacher Continent, the value of a single sliver of Kong shi's will was more than enough to make countless master teachers scramble for it.
"Indeed. Even though it was left behind after he achieved a breakthrough to Saint realm, it is still Kong Shi's will. You mustn't underestimate it. If you can obtain it and assimilate it, you will surely be able to reach Saint realm!"
Lozosy nodded.
"Reach Saint realm?" Zhang Xuan smiled bitterly. "I am only at Perfect Harmonization realm pinnacle at the moment. I am still a long way from reaching Saint realm!"
Even though he wanted to achieve a breakthrough, he was still a long way from reaching Saint realm.
After Perfect Harmonization realm, there was still the Ethereal Treading realm, Chrysalis realm, and even Half-Saint and Nascent Saint!
Even if he had sufficient Heaven's Path Divine Art manuals and Earth Vein Spirit Essence, he might not necessarily be able to reach the four realms.
The higher one's Heaven's Path Divine Art was, the higher the demand on spiritual energy would be. The consumption of spirit stones and spirit essence would be hundreds or even thousands of times higher than that of ordinary Saint realm cultivators!
On top of that, the threshold between Chrysalis and Half-Saint was a huge one, and so was the threshold between Half-Saint and Nascent Saint.
Even with the Heaven's Path Divine Art, Zhang Xuan didn't dare say that he would have a hundred percent success rate.
"The last time I met you at Verdant Mountain, you were only at Clarifying Turbidity realm pinnacle. In less than two months, you have already reached Perfect Harmonization realm pinnacle, raising your cultivation by three realms. Even I rarely see such a rate of improvement! Saint realm might be powerful, but it shouldn't be too difficult for you. "
Lozosy said.
The first time they met, the other party was only at Clarifying Turbidity realm pinnacle, and the second time, he had already reached Cosmos Bridge realm pinnacle … She had thought that it was already fast enough, but who could have known that he would be at Perfect Harmonization realm pinnacle?
Such a rate of improvement was simply unheard of.
"I … was just lucky …"
Smiling awkwardly, Zhang Xuan decided not to dwell on this topic any longer. Suddenly recalling something, he asked, "Right, do you have any Ethereal Treading realm cultivation technique manuals? There's no requirement for rank. The more, the better! "
The cultivation technique manuals of the Hongyuan Master Teacher Academy were guarded much more strictly than ordinary cultivation technique manuals. On top of that, there was a protective formation that made it difficult for even a soul oracle to breach it. On top of that, most of the people guarding it were teachers. With his previous experience in the Terpsichore School, even Zhang Xuan dared not barge in recklessly.
Just Wei Ranxue alone had nearly killed him. If a few soul experts were to appear, he would not be able to escape from their combined assault.
Therefore, these days, he went around learning other professions and didn't look for cultivation techniques.
It wasn't that they couldn't find it, but that they didn't dare to.
At this moment, Zhang Xuan happened to be in a rush, and he had nothing much to do. Thus, he decided to ask the other party about it. If the other party had it, he could learn it from him and raise his cultivation.
"Void Treading Realm cultivation method? I do, but I only have one. Furthermore, it's a family cultivation technique, and it's not allowed to be passed on to outsiders … "Lozosy shook her head.
"I was being too rash!" Hearing those words, Zhang Xuan felt a little awkward.
Based on the information he had gathered, the young lady before him was likely to be from the Luo Clan, a Sage Clan. The cultivation techniques of the Luo Clan were tightly guarded, and it would be disrespectful to ask for them recklessly.
Take Mu shi for example, he was expelled from the Luo Clan for revealing his cultivation technique.
"There's no need to be rash. If you wish to reach Ethereal Treading realm, I can offer you some pointers …"
Lozosy chuckled. "Ethereal Treading is the Transcendent Mortal 8-dan realm. Through this realm, one's body will become more compatible with nature, allowing one to tread on air …"
Listening intently, Zhang Xuan's eyes lit up in excitement.
As expected of an expert from a Sage Clan. His explanation of the Ethereal Treading realm was extremely detailed, and there were almost no mistakes!
If he were to cultivate according to her method, even without a cultivation technique, he would still be able to reach greater heights.
However, Zhang Xuan wasn't in a hurry.
It had only been two days since he made a breakthrough to Perfect Harmonization realm. If he were to push for it recklessly, his cultivation would become unstable.
Even the Heaven's Path Divine Art required a firm foundation. Otherwise, the faster he advanced, the more likely it would be for his cultivation to vanish.
The more they chatted, the more Zhang Xuan benefited from it.
Through their conversation, he had gained a deeper understanding of his future cultivation.
The journey to the Saint Ascension Platform would take three days, and he had been too busy recently to cultivate. Through their conversation, he had gained some new insights, and this was a good opportunity for him to reinforce his cultivation.
The Earth Vein Spirit Essence flowed through his meridians, and his Heaven's Path zhenqi had become purer and more resilient.
Time passed in a flash. After three days of hard work, Zhang Xuan's Perfect Harmonization realm pinnacle cultivation had been fully reinforced, and his aura had become much sharper than before.
Even though his strength was still at 14,000,000 ding, his control over his zhenqi had become much more flexible, and his fighting prowess had also improved significantly.
This was especially so for his spirit sea. It had expanded by nearly twofold, and pure zhenqi flowed within it like a torrent, ready to burst forth with astonishing might at any moment.
After three days of hard work, Zhang Xuan had gained a deeper understanding of Perfect Harmonization realm. As long as the situation permitted it, he would be able to make a breakthrough anytime and reach Transcendent Mortal 8-dan Ethereal Treading realm!
"Let me take a look at that golden book!"
Ever since he had agreed to accept School Head Jiang as his disciple, a golden book had appeared in the Library of Heaven's Path. He hadn't had the time to take a look at it, but now that he was done with his cultivation, he decided to take a look at it.
This golden book was slightly different from the previous one. It wasn't as bright as before, and it looked a little dull. Even though its brightness had dimmed, it felt more vast and boundless.
"It seems like both the Library of Heaven's Path and the Golden Book of Heaven's Path have advanced …"
Zhang Xuan nodded.
The golden book from before had allowed him to instantly memorize a vast amount of knowledge; it could transform into a brick to crush an expert of Vicious' caliber; it could raise his Soul Depth by an entire realm …
He wondered … what kind of abilities would the slightly dimmed Book of Heaven's Path possess after its evolution.
Just as Zhang Xuan was about to take a look at it, a crisp voice suddenly sounded. "We have arrived at the Saint Ascension Platform!"
"We have arrived?"
Opening his eyes, Zhang Xuan saw Lozosy standing by the window, gazing at the scenery outside. She was as tranquil as a beautiful painting.
Walking up to it, Zhang Xuan looked ahead and saw a towering mountain towering over the smooth plains. It looked like a massive dragon soaring into the clouds.
The peak of the mountain seemed to have been flattened by someone, and from afar, it looked like a massive altar. A white winding mountain path led straight up to the top of the mountain.
"This is the Saint Ascension Platform?"
Zhang Xuan was astonished.
The mountain seemed to be a platform that connected the heavens and the earth. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would have found it hard to believe.
"It's said that Kong Shi sat here for three days before achieving a breakthrough. Then, a divine melody descended from the heavens, and the chimes of ten thousand bells resounded."
Lozosy seemed to know a lot about Kong Shi's ascension as a Celestial Saint. With a smile, she said, "No one knows what this mountain looked like in the past, but after Kong Shi ascended to Celestial Saint once more, it became like a towering altar that connects the heavens and the earth. Cultivating on the mountain opens up one's mind, making it easier for one to achieve a breakthrough. As such, countless cultivators come here every year in search of a breakthrough. "
Zhang Xuan nodded.
Through the Eye of Insight, Zhang Xuan could see many figures walking along the white winding mountain path. Just as Zhang Xuan had said, there were quite a few cultivators who had come to seek enlightenment.
As for whether they could succeed or not, that would depend on their luck.
"As this is the place where Kong Shi ascended to Celestial Saint, Mingshi Tang has designated this place as a sacred ground. Those who wish to enter the mountain can only ascend it step by step from the foot of the mountain. Even Saint realm experts aren't an exception... Let's head to the foot of the mountain!"
Lozosy said.
The place where Kong Shi ascended to Celestial Saint was solemn and dignified, making it impossible for one to ascend it directly. Thus, there was only one way to ascend the mountain... by foot!
This was also a sign of respect for Kong Shi and the master teacher occupation.
Knowing the rules, Zhang Xuan had the Great Violetwing Beast fly toward the foot of the mountain.
Before arriving at the foot of the mountain, he could already see countless figures dressed in master teacher robes walking along the mountain path.
Most of these people were Chrysalis realm experts, but there were also Half-Saint and Nascent Saint cultivators. Some were master teachers, and some were cultivators of other occupations. From the looks of it, they had come here in search of fortuitous encounters.
"Are these... experts from Hongyuan Empire?" Zhang Xuan asked doubtfully.
There were at least ten thousand people on the mountain path, and almost all of them were Chrysalis realm, Half-Saint, and Nascent Saint... How in the world did Hongyuan Empire have so many experts?
"Of course not. The Saint Ascension Platform is located at the borders of Hongyuan Empire, and there are more than a dozen Tier-1 Empires in the vicinity. In fact, there are even Conferred Empires here as well. It would already be an incredible feat if even one percent of these people are from Hongyuan!"
Lozosy said.
"I see." Zhang Xuan nodded.
Through the books he had read over the past few days, he had gained a rough understanding of the situation around him.
Hongyuan Empire was a Tier-1 Empire, and above it was Qingyuan Conferred Empire.
Under Qingyuan Conferred Empire, there were dozens of such Tier-1 Empires. Their territory spanned tens of millions of kilometers, and their population numbered in the trillions.
Even though Hongyuan Empire was famous for its Master Teacher Academy, in terms of area, it could only be considered to be in the middle of the Tier-1 Empires.
This was also the reason why it didn't have the most experts.
The strongest expert in Hongyuan City was only at Saint 1-dan pinnacle. On the other hand, some of the more powerful Tier-1 Empires had Saint 2-dan or even Saint 3-dan experts.
Even among Tier-1 Empires, there was still a huge gap between them.
"Right, does the Master Teacher Academy only exist in Hongyuan Empire, or are there other Tier-1 Empires as well?"
Zhang Xuan asked.
"The Master Teacher Academy is a place where master teachers are groomed. Even though it isn't unique to Hongyuan Empire, there aren't many of them in the Tier-1 Empires. Of the dozens of Tier-1 Empires beneath Qingyuan Conferred Empire, there are only four of them. "
Lozosy said. "However, due to the distance between them, most people aren't aware of them!"
"Four of them?" Zhang Xuan was astonished.
All along, he had thought that there was only one Hongyuan Master Teacher Academy in the Tier-1 Empires. Who could have thought that there would be three of them?
Considering how the Hongyuan Master Teacher Academy had a hundred thousand master teachers, it was likely that the other academies wouldn't be lacking either.
From the looks of it, the Master Teacher Continent was indeed huge. At the very least, it was several tens of thousands of times larger than Earth in his previous life.
