The shock brought by the Dark Moon Clan was truly immense, leaving a group of big shots needing time to digest it all.

Chu Xinghe looked at Sect Master Gu Mingchao with a face full of grief and indignation.

Oh, Sect Master... this is too much...

You suddenly brought everyone to see the Dark Moon Clan and let them know about their situation. Did you consider how everyone would feel?

Look, you've almost made everyone cry!

They traveled thousands of miles to our Grand Sky Sect to attend a wedding, not to seek thrills!

Shouldn't we, the Grand Sky Sect, consider others a bit more?

Shouldn't we be low-key and hide the Dark Moon Clan?

But Chu Xinghe quickly realized, damn, there's nothing to hide...

We, the Grand Sky Sect, are the number one sect in the world. If we have any weaknesses, we should hide them and not let others find out.

But is the Dark Moon Clan afraid of exposure?

Not only are they not afraid, but at this moment, their exposure is a tremendous boost for the Grand Sky Sect.

Look, Cheng Xiaotian's eyes are much clearer than before...

In the past, some might have pointed fingers at the Grand Sky Sect, claiming, "You are too much, and I will fight you to the end."

But after the news of the Dark Moon Clan spreads, anyone with a bit of sense wouldn't say that anymore.

Fight to the end with the Grand Sky Sect? Do you believe that tonight the Grand Sky Sect will arrange for the Dark Moon Clan to be at your doorstep? Whether you survive or not is uncertain, but the Dark Moon Clan is truly relentless...

"Sage... Sect Master... Great Elder..." An Lan finally managed to control herself and refrained from continuing the highest etiquette performance.

After coming up to greet everyone, she naturally understood why they were here, especially since the news of the Wuxiang Heart Sutra being completed was just sent by An Lan's arrangement.

"An Lan, where is the Great Sage?" Gu Mingchao stepped forward to inquire.

"Reporting to the Sect Master, the Great Sage was so happy after completing the Wuxiang Heart Sutra that he nearly died of joy... He should be recovering now," An Lan explained with a smile.

However, this explanation sounded somewhat inhuman to everyone.

You know... when others succeed in something, they might say, "I'm so happy I could die," as an exaggerated expression of extreme joy.

But in the Dark Moon Clan, "died of joy" is not an exaggeration... When An Lan said the Great Sage was so happy he nearly died, it meant he truly almost died of joy...

The Great Sage, who had died of joy, didn't keep everyone waiting long. With a terrifying wave of power, the newly revived Great Sage pushed open the door and, seeing so many people from Dark Moon City, was filled with joy.

"An Zhi welcomes you all to my Dark Moon Palace. An Lan, how could you be so rude? With so many esteemed guests, you didn't even welcome them properly. Come, come... let the esteemed guests witness the highest etiquette of our Dark Moon Palace."

As soon as the Great Sage spoke, the members of the Dark Moon Clan immediately drew their weapons, ready to start hacking at each other...

Fortunately, Chu Xinghe reacted quickly, shouting to stop the second performance of the highest etiquette, then grabbing the Great Sage and saying, "Great Sage... An Lan has already warmly welcomed everyone and performed the highest etiquette..."

The Great Sage naturally believed the Saint's words, though his eyes showed a hint of disappointment...

"Great Sage, today Brother Xiaotian and others have come to the Dark Moon Palace to see the Wuxiang Heart Sutra you completed. Could you demonstrate it for us?" Gu Mingchao redirected the conversation back to the Wuxiang Heart Sutra.

However, upon hearing the Sect Master's words, the Great Sage showed a trace of helplessness.

"I'm afraid I'll disappoint the Sect Master... I've only completed part of the Wuxiang Heart Sutra and haven't found the perfect operation route..."

As soon as Great Sage An Zhi said this, Cheng Xiaotian and others, who were previously overwhelmed, suddenly brightened up.

Not completed?

That's great... Thank you, Great Sage, we came here to see the incomplete version...

Indeed, upon hearing the Great Sage's words, Gu Mingchao's expression turned somewhat awkward. After all, he brought so many people to the Dark Moon Palace today, partly to introduce the Dark Moon Clan and partly to see the terrifying potential of the completed Wuxiang Heart Sutra.

But now, the Great Sage's words left Gu Mingchao a bit embarrassed.

"Great Sage, there's no need to blame yourself. We came today just to take a look. If the Wuxiang Heart Sutra isn't fully completed yet, it's no problem. With the Dark Moon Clan's abilities, completing the Wuxiang Heart Sutra is just a matter of time."

The Great Elder spoke slowly, and as soon as he finished, the excitement that Cheng Xiaotian and others had just felt was dampened.

Because what the Great Elder said was true... with the Dark Moon Clan's damn near-infinite error tolerance, completing the technique is just a matter of trying a few more times, right?

Even if it's not completed today, won't it be completed in the future?

But as soon as the Great Elder finished speaking, Great Sage An Zhi spoke up: "Great Elder, although the Wuxiang Heart Sutra isn't fully completed, I've had some insights over the past few days. Since everyone is here to see it, I'll give a small demonstration. Please don't laugh."

With those words, Great Sage An Zhi didn't say much more. As dark energy flowed around him, he began to operate the Wuxiang Heart Sutra according to the route he had researched.

With a flip of his hand, a black energy ball appeared before everyone, the most basic dark spirit ball of the Dark Moon Clan.

At this moment, the Great Sage was demonstrating the extreme state of the dark spirit ball without operating the Wuxiang Heart Sutra.

Soon, the aura of the Wuxiang Heart Sutra began to circulate around the Great Sage, and as it did, the dark spirit ball in his hand began to inflate like a balloon.

Under everyone's gaze, the dark spirit ball expanded by ten percent... Seeing this, even the big shots couldn't help but gasp.

As expected of the legendary Wuxiang Heart Sutra, once it operates, it can indiscriminately enhance anything.

But before the big shots could finish marveling at the Wuxiang Heart Sutra's power, the dark spirit ball in the Great Sage's hand expanded by twenty percent...

This left everyone dumbfounded...

Wasn't it supposed to be incomplete?

What the hell is this, enhancing by twenty percent?

Isn't the Wuxiang Heart Sutra said to be able to increase one's cultivation level by twenty percent at its strongest?

So hasn't it already reached the best state?

So, Great Sage, were you just pulling our leg?

But just as everyone was puzzled about why the Great Sage claimed it wasn't completed, the dark spirit ball in his hand continued to expand... Finally, it stopped expanding when it reached nearly thirty percent.

Great Sage An Zhi spoke with regret: "You all see... this is my current limit, only allowing the Wuxiang Heart Sutra's enhancement to reach nearly thirty percent... Based on my research over the past few days, if the Wuxiang Heart Sutra reaches the perfect route, it should increase power by forty percent."

"I'm still a long way from that true perfection... Please forgive me..."

At this moment, everyone except the Great Sage was in a state of confusion.

Chu Xinghe was in tears, Great Sage, when it comes to humblebragging, you are the master... Today, if you didn't go to the Heavenly Dao Arena, I would protest with my real name. If you went, would anyone else have a chance there?

So you call this incomplete?

Is there any justice left?

Even in legends, the Wuxiang Heart Sutra can only increase cultivation by twenty percent at most... But you casually boosted it to nearly thirty percent, and you call this incomplete?

And you say the perfect state can reach forty percent?

Great Sage... have you considered how others feel?

You're defying the heavens here, aren't you?

You've doubled the Wuxiang Heart Sutra's power, haven't you?

The scene was somewhat out of control, mainly because of Cheng Xiaotian and the others.

When the Great Sage said it wasn't fully completed, Cheng Xiaotian's mood calmed a bit, but can someone explain, does your Grand Sky Sect call this not fully completed?

You've exceeded the task... and this isn't completed?

If the creator of the Wuxiang Heart Sutra heard the Great Sage today, he might eat the Wuxiang Heart Sutra on the spot, you know?

You call surpassing incomplete, is your Grand Sky Sect polite?

Whether the Great Sage is polite or not is unknown, but the Great Elder's face was already smiling like a chrysanthemum.

"The Great Sage is right, there's still some distance to perfection, please continue to work hard... Not only the Wuxiang Heart Sutra, but our Grand Sky Sect also has countless ancient texts with incomplete techniques, please continue your efforts!"

The Great Elder understood humblebragging, and as soon as he spoke, it was like a knife stabbing into the heart of every big shot present.

What? You think the Wuxiang Heart Sutra is terrifying...

Actually, our Grand Sky Sect has many more terrifying techniques... With the Dark Moon Great Sage, these techniques will probably be completed soon...

Then Sect Master Gu Mingchao personally thanked the Great Sage for his contributions to the Grand Sky Sect, stating that with the Great Sage, there would be no more incomplete techniques in the future. Moreover, once the Great Sage completes all the incomplete techniques, he could directly study other techniques in our Skill Tower and upgrade them all.

Thankful for the sect's trust, the Great Sage personally escorted everyone out of Dark Moon City, and to express the Dark Moon Clan's joy, he ordered An Lan and others to perform the highest etiquette of the Dark Moon Clan to see them off.

An Lan and others hacked at each other while seeing the guests off, and in a harmonious atmosphere of flying blood and flesh, everyone finally concluded their visit to the Dark Moon Palace.

Meanwhile, as the Great Sage was seeing off the guests, Deputy Sect Master Yan Shoujing quietly sneaked into the Great Sage's practice room.

Soon, Yan Shoujing found the Wuxiang Heart Sutra left in the room by the Great Sage, and looking at the sutra repaired by the Great Sage, he was overjoyed.

Quickly memorizing all the operation routes, Yan Shoujing quietly left.

Little Cui'er... with this Wuxiang Heart Sutra, I, Yan Shoujing, am one step closer to you...

Thinking of Little Cui'er for the hundred and somethingth day...
