The Cliff of Enlightenment was located in the extreme south of the Shang Qing Sect. It was a paradise that everyone yearned for.
However, that place was never easily opened to the public. Even the surrounding areas were forbidden for people to enter.
Only those who had a Token of Enlightenment could enter and learn from the endless knowledge and techniques inside.
Currently, the Sun had just risen, shedding down faint gold light that brightened up the mountain range.
Ling Xian was riding on a cloud and arrived.
His white robe was fluttering in the wind and his black hair was softly dancing in the wind. Just like an immortal, he was extraordinary and out of the world.
Just as he was about to land on top of a mountain peak, his entire being was suddenly trapped by an invisible force that locked him in place.
However, Ling Xian was not flustered. Because he knew very well that there was no way no one was guarding a place as important as the Cliff of Enlightenment.
Therefore, he softly grinned and took out the four tokens from his storage pouch.
Then, a soft noise arose in the air. Then, an elder in black appeared before Ling Xian.
This person had white hair and a white beard, making him look old. However, his eyes were sharp like an eagle's. The Qi he was exuding was as deep as the ocean, giving off an unpredictable vibe.
"This person is most likely an original leveled cultivator."
Ling Xian whispered to himself and raised the Token of Enlightenment, "I am Disciple Xian Ling. I am here with the Token of Enlightenment and I wish to enlighten myself."
"Four Tokens of Enlightenment of the highest level. Interesting."
Looking at the four black tokens in Ling Xian's hand, the elder couldn't help but be surprised. He didn't think this ordinary looking young man would be given the opportunity to stay inside for four days.
He has been guarding this place for hundreds of years and has never seen four tokens of the highest level. Naturally, he was surprised and even shocked.
After all, it meant he was given the opportunity to stay for four days!
"I am merely lucky. I am indebted to the elders for giving me the Token of Enlightenment." Ling Xian softly smiled.
"The Token of Enlightenment is not given to useless people. Even the Supreme Headmaster's son cannot get one without the ability."
The elder softly shook his head, "You must have some ability. Or else you wouldn't be able to have four tokens of the highest level."
Hearing this, Ling Xian smiled but didn't say anything.
Seeing this, the old man did not ask further. His job was to stop people who did not have a Token of Enlightenment. If someone came with a Dao Enlightenment Token, then he only needed to be responsible for opening the Dao Enlightenment Cliff.
"I won't say much. I just want to ask you one thing. Will you use four Tokens of Enlightenment at once?" the old man asked, his expression extremely serious.
Ling Xian nodded in a serious manner, "Yes, please open the Cliff of Enlightenment."
"Alright, hand over the token."
The old man spoke softly. Then, he waved his sleeves and put the four tokens into his pouch. Then, with a thought, a spirit stone the size of a small hill appeared in mid-air.
Immediately, a dazzling light diffused out, as if it could compete with the blazing sun. It was extremely dazzling.
Roughly estimating, there were at least a million of them, and without exception, they were all high-grade spirit stones!
At this, Ling Xian's eyes flashed with shock, "Senior, this is the price to pay for activating the Cliff of Enlightenment."
"That's right. However, these spirit stones before us are not enough." The old man softly grinned. Then, he flapped around his sleeve and more than 10 types of precious materials appeared, emitting bright light.
At this, the shock in Ling Xian's eyes intensified. He didn't think that activating the Cliff of Enlightenment would require such a high price.
But after thinking about it, he felt relieved. If it was so easy to activate, then the Shang Qing Sect's wealth would've dominated the world a long time ago.
"How great would it be if activating the Cliff of Enlightenment didn't require such a high price." The old man softly sighed and his expression turned serious.
"Alright, I am about to activate the Cliff of Enlightenment."
The old man spoke softly and formed a hand seal. Immediately, the spiritual stones began to melt at a speed that was visible to the naked eye. The more than 10 types of precious materials also disappeared and were absorbed by an unknown force.
After paying such a high price, a strange and mysterious wave of energy expanded from the old man's hand and engulfed the entire mountain range.
"Cliff of Enlightenment, activate!"
After a loud shout, the old man's body exploded with heavenly light. His original level cultivation combined with his strange hand seal formed a very special wave of energy.
Then, before Ling Xian's shocked gaze, a rumbling noise arose from the ground. A mountain that was tens of thousands of meters tall rose from the ground.
This mountain was tens of thousands of meters tall and like a sharp sword, it pierced through the clouds. The moment it appeared, it began to exude a mysterious rhythm that made people feel like they were walking on clouds.
It was the famous Cliff of Enlightenment.
At this, Ling Xian's heart heated up and he couldn't wait any longer.
"This mountain peak is the Cliff of Enlightenment that everyone yearns for."
After activating the Cliff of Enlightenment, the old man appeared weak. Even his forehead was sweating.
This surprised Ling Xian. Remember that this person was of the original level!
Yet to activate the Cliff of Enlightenment, not only did he pay so many spiritual stones and heavenly materials, he also became weak. This alone was enough to prove how difficult it was to activate the Cliff of Enlightenment.
Therefore, Ling Xian smiled, "Thank you, senior, for helping me."
"I am doing my job. There is no need to thank me."
The old man brandished his hand and smiled, "Go in. Don't waste this rare opportunity."
"I understand." Ling Xian nodded with a smile.
Even though he could only stay inside for an hour, it was a rare opportunity that countless people can't get in their entire lives. An opportunity that lasts for four days was something even the upper management of the Shang Qing Sect could not get. He naturally had to treasure it.
"Go. The moment you step onto the Cliff of Enlightenment, the mountain will automatically remember you. After four days, you will be automatically transported out." The old man instructed.
Ling Xian softly nodded. In a flash, he headed towards the mountain peak.
Before long, he landed on top of the Cliff of Enlightenment.
The moment he landed on the peak of the mountain, a transparent barrier appeared around him, emitting an extremely strong wave of Spiritual Qi. This barrier was an array that could block out all sounds and souls from the outside world. It was as if he had disappeared from the world and was undetectable.
This made Ling Xian nod in satisfaction. He was an expert in arrays and naturally, he knew how powerful this barrier was. To put it bluntly, even if it was an original leveled cultivator, they would not be able to check with their souls.
In other words, no matter what he does inside, nobody will know. Plus, the old man was here to protect him. Even if he was in a state of enlightenment, he wouldn't have to worry about danger.
"Alright, let me take a walk around."
Grinning, Ling Xian glanced around. The space on top of the mountain was extremely large and there was a giant cave before him.
On the wall of the mountain, there were many words carved. They were the experiences left behind by the previous generations of the Shang Qing Sect.
This made his eyes brighten. He felt like he had just found a treasure.
To him, what he needed the most right now wasn't some Divine Ability or Dao Technique. Don't forget, he had the Eyes of Execution and the Disorder Conquering Fists. These two unparalleled techniques were enough for him to dominate the world.
Therefore, what he needed the most right now was experience in cultivation.
After all, his cultivation level was at the peak of the completion level. Next, he needed to break through to the undefeatable realm of the completion level. However, he was completely clueless about this aspect.
Therefore, he very much wanted to find a way to break through to the undefeatable realm of the completion level. Or perhaps, he needed to learn something.
"Let me take a look around first. If there isn't anything, then I will enlighten myself on the techniques left behind by the previous powerhouses."
Ling Xian made up his mind and his silhouette began to fade. When he reappeared, he was already at the foot of the mountain.
Then, he shifted his gaze to the wall of the mountain. There were many words carved there. They were the experiences left behind by the previous generations of the Shang Qing Sect.
Because the words were very straightforward, he didn't need to study them and immediately understood what the elder was trying to say.
Sadly, the first experience he saw was only applicable to meditational leveled cultivators. He couldn't use it.
However, Ling Xian was not disappointed. This mountain peak was filled with experiences and insights. He will eventually find something useful.
"I am not in a rush to enlighten myself on the techniques left behind by the previous powerhouses. I will slowly search around. Perhaps I can find something related to the undefeatable realm of the completion level."
Ling Xian faintly smiled and calmed himself down. His gaze moved back and forth on the mountain.
One by one, the experiences left behind by the previous generations flashed across his eyes. He memorized them and immediately understood what they were trying to say.
After all, he was naturally intelligent and had a high level of enlightenment. Plus, the experiences were very straightforward, so it was easy for him to understand.
Though the experiences he memorized weren't what he wanted, to him, they were somewhat useful.
After all, these were the experiences left behind by the previous powerhouses. How could they be useless?
Therefore, Ling Xian's eyes shone brighter and brighter as he carefully studied the experiences.
Just like that, time passed by little by little. In the blink of an eye, it was the afternoon of the second day.
During this time, Ling Xian had traveled from the foot of the mountain to the middle of the mountain. He had read at least hundreds of experiences and completely understood what the previous generations were trying to say.
Even though he didn't find what he was looking for, in the end, he still gained a lot of knowledge.
At the very least, his understanding of cultivation increased by a lot and his knowledge became more profound.
This made Ling Xian very satisfied. He felt like participating in the Competition of the Four Paths was the right decision. Or else he wouldn't have gained so much today.
When he arrived at the middle of the mountain and saw a set of experiences, he felt like this trip was no longer necessary.
The walls of the mountain were filled with tiny words that emitted a mystical Daoist aura. With just one look, one would understand how precious these insights were.
Ling Xian was no exception.
The moment he saw those ancient characters, his eyes exploded with light. Like the undying Sun in the sky, he was shining brightly.
Because the characters before him were what he had been looking for. They were the experiences of the undefeatable realm of the completion level!
