Longhu Mountain.
Star List Hall, Jadewave Cave.
Chung Shen-soo sat cross-legged and felt the extremely dense Qi of Heaven and Earth. He could not help but sigh to himself, "This is really a good place. If a baleful aura cultivator cultivated here, it might be able to increase the efficiency of qi harvesting by thirty percent …"
Compared to gathering a strand of baleful qi for several tens of years, it was already quite amazing to be able to save several to ten years of time here.
However, the current Chung Shen-soo did not care about this cave abode that was bestowed by the sect at all.
He thought about it and walked out of the cave abode, strolling around the Star List Hall.
Although the Star List Hall was called a hall, it was actually a world of its own.
Vaguely, the inner sect disciples who had cave abodes were separated from the inner sect disciples who could only open cave abodes in the outside world.
Even though they were all Ability of God cultivators, there were strong and weak ones!
Other than the many cave abodes in the Star List Hall, the most important places were the External Technique Hall, the Dao Preaching Peak, and the Sutra Library.
Chung Shen-soo was dressed in a dragon and tiger robe. He did not walk alone, but like an ordinary inner sect disciple, he prepared to go to the Sutra Library.
There was a formation in the Star List Hall that prohibited flying. Many Ability of God cultivators could only walk on the ground.
As he was rushing, he suddenly heard a surprised voice from behind, "Isn't that Junior Brother Su in front?"
Although Chung Shen-soo had entered the Taishang Longhu Sect, it was his first time coming to the sect and he did not know many people.
When he turned around, he recognized the person. It was Chen Wenji, who had gone to the Fufeng Protectorate to recruit him.
"So it's Senior Sister Chen!"
He stopped in his tracks and saluted.
"It really is Junior Brother Su. I heard that our sect disciples suffered heavy casualties in the Nine Palaces Grotto-Heaven battle. I was worried for you. Fortunately, you are blessed by the heavens …"
Chen Wenji said with a smile.
Beside her were a few Ability of God disciples. They were all dressed in brocade clothes and had a hint of arrogance on their faces.
"Let me introduce you. These three are disciples of the Zhang family. They are Zhang Yuanzong, Zhang Yuanqi, and Zhang Yuanfu …"
Mount Longhu was divided into three factions, and the Zhang family was undoubtedly the strongest.
The three of them were the descendants of the Zhang family, and they were ranked just below the 'Supreme' generation.
"Are you the Su Daozhi that Uncle [The Beginning] mentioned?"
Zhang Yuanzong glanced at Chung Shen-soo. "As a Dao General of our sect, you actually wandered outside for three years without returning. Haha …"
Chen Wenji could tell that something was wrong with the other party's tone, so she hurriedly explained to Chung Shen-soo, "I heard from Senior Brother Sima that Junior Brother Su is also heavily injured, and there's nothing we can do …"
"The three of you, if you want to provoke me, just say it. Could it be that you're so used to bullying people in the sect that you've forgotten about the Life and Death Arena?"
Chung Shen-soo didn't want to spoil the three of them, so he sneered and retorted.
The Dragon Tiger Sect also had a Ring of Life and Death for the disciples to settle their disputes. Although there were always Elders watching over it, it was inevitable that there would be casualties in fights.
"You …"
Zhang Yuanzong's face turned red with anger, but he couldn't say a word.
After all, even though Su Daozhi's future was bleak, he had mastered a grade-1 Transcendent Art, and his battle prowess was comparable to that of a true disciple.
If the three of them were to fight on the Ring of Life and Death, they wouldn't be a match for him even if they worked together.
"Junior Brother Su is indeed sharp-tongued … I hope that you'll be on your own in the future."
Zhang Yuanfu's expression was sinister as he sneered and left with the other two.
"Sigh … the Zhang family is powerful, why do you have to do this? If they complain to Senior Brother [The Beginning], or if they cause trouble for you in the future, your days will be hard … "
Chen Wenji smiled bitterly.
Even she had to listen to the Zhang family's disciples before doing anything.
"I'll take care of everything. Don't worry, Senior Sister."
Zhong Shenxiu was really impatient with the show of showing off and slapping his face.
After all … the fifteenth of the seventh month was the day of the Worship Ceremony!
At this time, the Taishang Dragon Tiger Sect would either send people to Chang Luo or defend the sect to the death. There would be no other missions.
When the time came, would Chung Shen-soo still care about a few Zhang family disciples?
By then, even if Zhang Taichu tried to stop him, he could just crush him to death. That was all.
Because there was nothing to ask for, there was nothing to fear.
He looked at Chen Wenji with a hint of pity in his eyes.
There was no fun in cultivating to be as scheming as in the mortal world.
However, this was her choice.
He didn't say anything and asked for directions to the Sutra Depository before bidding farewell to Chen Wenji.
The Sutra Depository was located on the Wan Wen Peak.
This peak had a very high status in the Star List Hall, and disciples could be seen climbing it from time to time.
They were either sitting or lying down somewhere on the peak, looking relaxed. The only thing special about them was that they were very quiet.
On the Wan Wen Peak, there was not a single brick building.
"The Sutra Depository is the entire peak, and this mountain is the Mountain of Books?"
Chung Shen-soo came to the foot of the mountain and picked up a stone. Lines of words seeped into his mind and turned into an article — "The Art of Cultivating Righteous Qi"!
This was only an acquired Qi Refinement Art. Even ordinary people could cultivate it and nurture a breath of righteous Qi. It would be stored in the body and released when encountering evil spirits.
"Not a bad scripture, but it's useless to me. This Mountain of Books is so big, but doesn't it have an index?"
Chung Shen-soo thought for a moment and sent a strand of Immortal Will into the ground.
The next moment, he seemed to be connected to a huge network. His Immortal Will came to a starry universe and saw countless light spots.
Each dot of light was an ancient book or a miscellaneous book.
Along with his will, after the desire to read emerged, some light spots were repelled, and some light spots were attracted to him.
"This Mountain of Books is alive!"
"This characteristic is comparable to the search bar … Unfortunately, there are restrictions."
Chung Shen-soo was just an ordinary inner sect disciple. He probably couldn't see the real treasures.
However, his original intention of coming here was not to search for divine arts or secret techniques. He was only here to broaden his horizons.
He was immersed in reading when he suddenly attracted a strong light spot.
In reality, Chung Shen-soo raised his head slightly and saw a leaf falling on his palm. There were words formed by natural veins on it.
"Nine Steps to Immortality"!
"Huh?"
Chung Shen-soo's interest was piqued. He skimmed through it and found out that it was a book written by an overseas itinerant cultivator who researched the new nine steps to immortality.
Because it was only obtained through observation and conjecture, there were some mistakes and it did not involve the real cultivation technique. However, it was obviously very valuable since it was placed here.
"The new method of immortality can be divided into nine steps … Eating the Nine Yin, Devouring the Eight Stars, Sealing the Seven Organs, Destroying the Six Organs, Destroying the Five Organs …"
"After that is the Four Tribulations and Three Disasters, and the Second Gate!"
Chung Shen-soo felt that this itinerant cultivator was probably only at the Divine Power or Primal Core stage. The description at the beginning was very accurate, but there were some mistakes when it came to the Three Disasters and Four Tribulations. It must have been hearsay.
"Cultivators do not go through the Four Tribulations first, but the Three Disasters first. They do not strictly follow the numbers … Does this mean that … the new method of immortality hides chaos and disorder in order?"
Chung Shen-soo had his own unique view on this.
