"Without the Taiyuan Divine Path and without practicing any Spirit Arts, he was able to reach the limit of the Second Level of the Extreme Mortal Realm after breaking through. Such talent … such talent …" The Elder was in a daze as he mumbled to himself.
"If he had the Taiyuan Divine Way, wouldn't he have reached the Extreme Third Level of the Mortal Realm?" Another Heaven Realm Elder asked.
If they knew that Chen Zong had reached the Early Third Level of the Mortal Realm without the Taiyuan Divine Way and without practicing any Spiritual Skills, they would be shocked to their core.
There was a fine line between the peak of the Second Lv of the Mortal Realm and the Early Lv of the Third Lv of the Mortal Realm. But this fine line had stopped countless warriors. Even geniuses would have to spend a few years to break through if they didn't have enough luck.
Chen Zong had saved a few years. Moreover, it represented his talent and potential.
"Chen Zong, how many acupuncture points have you opened for each level?" The Taiyuan Lord asked seriously.
"Nine." Chen Zong hid the truth once again. This wasn't because Chen Zong was lying on purpose, but because he wanted to protect himself. After all, ever since Chen Zong stepped onto the path of a warrior, he had always relied on his own ability to move forward. As his experience grew, he understood the importance of hiding and showing off.
Other than his master, only the Rainbow Mountain Lord treated him well in the Taiyuan Sky Sect. The others were just average and weren't worthy of his complete trust.
Another reason was that he had been attacked by the remnants of the Ancient Demon Palace because he had achieved the Invincible Path. If he was too outstanding, he would have attracted the attention of others.
Even though his cultivation had reached the Early Third Level of the Mortal Realm and was many times stronger than before, Chen Zong still didn't dare to be complacent.
There was no limit to martial arts!
The Limitless Way of the Sword!
"Return to the Green Feather Mountain." The Taiyuan Lord said. Chen Zong bowed and left.
"We should have let Chen Zong enter the Tai Yuan Stage first." After Chen Zong left, an elder said in a low voice.
With this kind of talent, if he had entered the Tai Yuan Realm first and received the Tai Yuan Saint Way, his current cultivation would have at least reached the Early Stage of the Third Level of the Extreme Mortal Realm, or even the Mid Stage of the Third Level of the Extreme Mortal Realm. Its significance was different from the Extreme Mortal Realm of the Second Level of the Extreme Mortal Realm, as it belonged to two different levels.
"Alright, it's all in the past. There's no need to mention it again." Taiyuan Sect Master's face was somewhat cold.
Since it had already happened, there was no point in bringing it up again. It would only increase one's regret.
The Taiyuan Sect Master could not help but think that if Chen Zong was the first to enter the Taiyuan Realm and received the Taiyuan Divine Way, perhaps there would be a real dragon in the Taiyuan Heaven Sect, which would make the Taiyuan Heaven Sect more prosperous.
But there was nothing he could do. It had already happened, and there was nothing he could do.
As for imparting Chen Zong the Taiyuan Divine Way, it was simply impossible. The complete Taiyuan Divine Way could only be obtained in the Taiyuan Realm. It was not something that could be interfered with.
"What a pity." After leaving, the Rainbow Mountain Lord sighed with regret for Chen Zong. "After returning to the Green Feather Mountain, Chen Zong was able to become an Esoteric Disciple of the Green Feather Mountain. With his identity as a Green Feather Mountain disciple and his great contributions to the Sect, he should be able to impart the Green Feather Mystic Way to the Green Feather Mountain. However, it's of the Upper Grade and can't be compared to the Taiyuan Divine Way."
Each of the Seven Mountains of Taiyuan had its own Inheritance. They were all complete Upper Grade. Only the Taiyuan Divine Way was of the Supreme Grade.
In fact, every Upper Grade Sect had an Upper Grade Inheritance. The difference was whether it was complete or not. Of course, within the same grade, there would be some differences. The Taiyuan Heaven Sect was one of the top 15 forces in the Canglan Continent. Naturally, its Inheritance was of the highest level among the Upper Grade.
Even so, it still could not be compared to the Supreme Grade Inheritance.
For every tier of the Extreme Mortal Realm, there was a difference between opening ten apertures and opening eleven apertures. As one's cultivation increased, the difference would only become more obvious.
Although Chen Zong was extremely talented and even surpassed Fang Xingchen, if he did not have a Supreme Grade Inheritance, the gap between him and Fang Xingchen would only shrink and then be overtaken.
…
"Taiyuan Divine Way …"
"Taiyuan Realm …"
On the way back to the Green Feather Mountain, Chen Zong could not help but ponder.
Instinctively, Chen Zong felt that the Taiyuan Divine Way and the Taiyuan Realm were inextricably linked.
"Fang Xingchen entered the Taiyuan Realm earlier than me. Could it be that he obtained the so-called Taiyuan Divine Way?"
"Why didn't I obtain it?"
All sorts of questions appeared in his mind.
Although he was not clear, Chen Zong could vaguely feel that he was being treated differently.
The Sect was treating Fang Xingchen too well.
Perhaps Fang Xingchen's ancestor had made many contributions to the Taiyuan Sky Sect, and Emperor Gu Yuan was also a member of the Fang Clan. Thus, it was reasonable for the Sect to treat Fang Xingchen well. Chen Zong expressed his understanding, but he did not accept such treatment.
"Fine, I'll rely on my own hard work." Chen Zong thought to himself. In the end, he had relied on his own ability and hard work to come this far.
However, his sense of belonging to the Taiyuan Sky Sect had decreased by a little.
Returning to the Green Feather Mountain.
As the Green Feather Mountain Lord was injured, the affairs of the Green Feather Mountain were handled by the Heaven-level Elder Cang Xuan. He was Yu Zhengxiao's master.
"Chen Zong, from today onwards, you are a secret disciple of the Green Feather Mountain." Elder Cang Xuan's face was full of smiles. He could not be unhappy because he already knew that Chen Zong had broken through to the Taiyuan Realm and raised his cultivation to the peak of the Second Tier of the Extreme Mortal Realm. This was under the circumstances that he had not spread the Taiyuan Divine Way, but he was already comparable to Fang Xingchen, who had spread the Taiyuan Divine Way.
Such talent would definitely make the Green Feather Mountain even more powerful.
The power of an expert was very important.
If the Green Feather Mountain could produce an Emperor, it would be ranked among the top of the seven mountains of the Taiyuan Sky Sect, second only to the Taiyuan Mountain. After all, all the Emperors in the past were from the Taiyuan Mountain.
As he thought of this, the smile on Elder Cang Xuan's face suddenly disappeared and he frowned slightly.
As a Heaven-level Elder, he naturally knew some things. He was very dissatisfied, but there was nothing he could do. If the Green Feather Mountain Lord was here, he might have fought for Chen Zong. However, the Green Feather Mountain Lord was seriously injured and there was nothing he could do.
The inheritance of the Green Feather Mountain was not bad, but it could not be compared to the Taiyuan Divine Way.
Just the inheritance of the Green Feather Mountain was not enough to fully uncover Chen Zong's talent and potential.
After becoming an esoteric disciple and upgrading his identity token, Chen Zong no longer had to wear the same uniform. He could wear whatever clothes he wanted and could also have the Sect customize them.
"Esoteric disciples are the true inheritance of each mountain and are very important. You must remember to work hard in your cultivation and do your best to improve yourself and win glory for our Green Feather Mountain," Elder Cang Xuan said with a serious face.
"Disciple will remember." Chen Zong also responded with a serious face.
Chen Zong might not feel much about winning glory for the Taiyuan Sky Sect, but winning glory for the Green Feather Mountain was his duty and he could not shirk his duty.
"Originally, you should have held a banquet for your promotion to esoteric disciple and invite everyone to congratulate you. However, the mountain lord is injured and the situation is not good. Everything will be simplified." Elder Cang Xuan sighed. "I hope you don't blame us."
"Disciple does not dare." Chen Zong responded with a serious face. Chen Zong did not care whether he held a banquet or not. It was best to simplify things.
"Good, it is a great blessing for the mountain lord to accept you as his disciple." Elder Cang Xuan was very happy. After laughing a few times, he said, "Chen Zong, come with me. I will take you to receive the highest inheritance of Green Feather Mountain."
"Yes." Chen Zong responded and followed Elder Cang Xuan's footsteps.
"Our Green Feather Mountain's inheritance is called the Green Feather Mystic Path. It has a high-grade Lingwu Spirit Art, Green Feather Mystic Art, and Green Feather Clear Sky," Elder Cang Xuan explained to Chen Zong as he led the way to the top of Green Feather Mountain.
In order to break through to the Transcendent Stage, Chen Zong naturally had to do some research first. He knew the difference between different spirit arts and Lingwu, as well as the brightness and darkness of apertures.
Chen Zong was a little surprised when he learned that the Green Feather Mystic Path was a top-grade high-grade inheritance.
Chen Zong was even more surprised when he learned that the Taiyuan Saint Path was a supreme-grade inheritance.
"A high-grade inheritance can open up a total of ninety apertures in the Extreme Mortal Stage. Every level will open up ten apertures. My cultivation is now at the early Third Layer of the Extreme Mortal Stage and I have already opened up twenty-one apertures, which is equivalent to a high-grade spirit art." Chen Zong could not help but think to himself, "This means that the Green Feather Mystic Path's Green Feather Mystic Art is not that useful to me."
Not that useful did not mean that it was useless. After all, Chen Zong's current spirit energy was only the purest spirit energy. It was majestic and vigorous, but its power was relatively average. Only after cultivating a spirit art would one possess a different type of energy and become more powerful.
"Well, I can only accept the inheritance first and see if I can get a supreme-grade inheritance in the future." Chen Zong thought to himself.
Although the Green Feather Mystic Path was not as good as the Taiyuan Saint Path, it was still a famous inheritance in the outside world. It was naturally very precious, and since it was precious, it naturally had to be kept a secret.
At the highest point of the Green Feather Mountain, there was a stone tablet. Elder Cang Xuan formed a series of hand seals that landed on the stone tablet. The stone tablet shook and slowly sank.
Chen Zong stood in front of the stone tablet and stared at it. After the stone tablet had completely sunk, another rumbling sound rang out, and another stone tablet rose up.
This rising stone tablet looked the same as the sinking stone tablet, but Chen Zong found that there was something different.
He was able to discover the difference because Chen Zong's five apertures had all been opened, and his five senses had been greatly enhanced.
"The first inheritance stone tablet was an illusion." Elder Cang Xuan smiled. "This stone tablet is the real inheritance stone tablet."
A fake inheritance stone tablet was naturally a form of confusion.
"Go, comprehend it, and accept the inheritance." Elder Cang Xuan smiled.
"Okay." Chen Zong nodded and sat down cross-legged in front of the greyish-white stone tablet that looked like a giant feather. The stone tablet was covered with runes that looked like the runes on a real feather.
At first, it didn't seem like anything special. However, when Chen Zong focused his mind to take a closer look, the stone tablet seemed to come to life. Every single line on it began to move.
An indescribable mysterious aura spread out and filled the surroundings, enveloping Chen Zong's body.
