Steady Cultivation: Starting With the Perk “Work Hard, Rest Hard”
Chapter 306: Convincing the Temple Master
Nangong Xianweng actually didn't know whether Su Yuan had surpassed the Tai Chi Realm, but he believed that even if Su Yuan hadn't reached it now, he would inevitably achieve it in the future. Su Yuan had given him such overwhelming confidence! After all, he had personally witnessed Su Yuan's rise and invincibility!
Upon hearing this, the Five Elements Hall Master's eyes flickered slightly.
She now understood why the other party's cultivation was being suppressed by the Great Dao's will.
A visitor from the chaos!
She never expected it would actually be an outsider from the chaos.
Merely at the early stage of Chaos Great Luo Golden Immortal, how could he possibly traverse the chaos alone?
The Five Elements Hall Master instantly began deducing the heavenly secrets of the Great Dao.
After consuming quite a bit of magical power, she obtained some information from the Great Dao's will - nearly three hundred external Great Powers had entered the God Realm Sea!
All of them had cultivated mysterious methods to shield themselves from heavenly scrutiny. Surprisingly, even she couldn't precisely lock onto their locations, only confirming their numbers.
Nearly three hundred Great Powers - this number was more than twice that of the Five Elements God Realm Sea!
This was an absolutely terrifying quantity, and this was clearly only a portion of the experts the other side had dispatched, not their full strength.
With so many Great Powers, they would inevitably produce Tai Chi Realm experts. This force could not be underestimated.
"How did you come here?" the woman inquired.
Nangong Xianweng shook his head. "This I cannot say, but I can definitely confirm that if our sect wished to occupy this realm, it would be as easy as turning over a hand!"
His tone carried absolute confidence, a confidence so strong that he dared to meet the Five Elements Hall Master's gaze without showing the slightest trace of fear.
The Five Elements Hall Master's expression remained calm, not intimidated by Nangong Xianweng's words.
She said peacefully, "According to your statement, what benefits would the Five Elements Holy Temple gain by joining the Seven Stars Sect?"
Hearing this, Nangong Xianweng smiled. "The benefits are naturally numerous!"
He said indifferently, "First, the Patriarch can forge exclusive Tai Chi Supreme Treasures. After you join the sect, the Patriarch can forge various types of Tai Chi Supreme Treasures for you, including attack-type, defense-type, control-type, space-time-type, and many other categories of supreme treasures! Of course, aside from the first one being free, subsequent ones require contribution points to exchange!"
The Five Elements Hall Master felt slightly tempted by this benefit. She possessed one innate supreme treasure that had indeed reached the Tai Chi Supreme Treasure level, but she certainly wouldn't mind having more supreme treasures.
"Second, the Patriarch controls enlightenment Dao techniques. Regardless of which realm, even the Tai Chi Realm, one can receive intelligence bonuses. A ten-thousand-fold bonus is just the starting point - sect elders can enjoy the massive benefit of a hundred-million-fold intelligence bonus!"
The Five Elements Hall Master's eyes lit up. "Is this true?"
Nangong Xianweng said, "I can open part of my memories for the Hall Master to examine, which includes my cultivation situation after obtaining enlightenment opportunities. My intelligence can only be considered average, but because I have some relationship with the Patriarch, I obtained several enlightenment opportunities. That's how I was able to successively comprehend the mysteries of laws and prove the Dao to achieve Hunyuan!"
"Oh?"
The Five Elements Hall Master was somewhat surprised. She never expected Nangong Xianweng would dare to open his memories?
This situation was equivalent to handing over his life to her control. If she wished, she could instantly kill Nangong Xianweng, or even enslave his mind, making him her servant!
"If that's the case, then open your memories?" the Five Elements Hall Master said lightly.
She wanted to see whether Nangong Xianweng actually dared to do this!
Nangong Xianweng took a deep breath, then closed his eyes, releasing his soul defenses and publicly sharing a portion of his memories with the Five Elements Hall Master.
The Five Elements Hall Master extended her Holy Sense into Nangong Xianweng's body, then received a portion of his memories.
This portion of memories spanned a full five billion years, but for the Five Elements Hall Master, it was merely the blink of an eye. She quickly finished viewing Nangong Xianweng's experiences.
Extremely simple memories.
The memories started from the Heavenly Immortal Realm, entering a secret realm world within the sect, obtaining numerous opportunities inside, combined with multiple enlightenment divine abilities, ultimately succeeding in Dao comprehension and proving the Dao to achieve Hunyuan Sage!
The brevity of memories and simplicity of experiences were among the rarest even among Hunyuan Great Luo Golden Immortals.
One could say that if the difficulty for others to break through to Hunyuan Great Luo Golden Immortal was one million, the hardship Nangong Xianweng experienced was merely 1 point!
She even saw that in the same batch as Nangong Xianweng proving the Dao, there were fully seven hundred Hunyuan Great Luo Golden Immortals!
She found it hard to imagine that one day, she would actually use "batch" to describe Great Powers!
Batch after batch of Great Powers emerged from the secret realm, each batch numbering hundreds or even thousands. It was difficult to imagine how powerful such a force must be!
"Is this the Seven Stars Sect?"
To be honest, the Five Elements Hall Master was truly shocked!
Having cultivated for countless years until now, this was the first time she felt a terrifying sense of powerlessness. Facing such a great force was just like how other forces in the Five Elements God Realm Sea faced the Five Elements Holy Temple - completely unable to resist!
She even suspected that what the other party said about their strength was actually restrained, only revealing part of it to her.
Nangong Xianweng opened his eyes, looked at the silent Five Elements Hall Master, coughed once, then continued, "Besides the above benefits, there are others. For example, you can learn numerous Dao techniques, seek guidance from the Patriarch about the cultivation path, obtain Law Root Qi, explore many God Realm Seas, extend lifespan, and so on!"
He deliberately paused before saying, "Does the Hall Master know that Hunyuan Great Luo Golden Immortals are not eternal beings? Their lifespan limit is between three thousand to ten thousand Kalpas, while the lifespan limit of the Tai Chi Realm is three thousand Immeasurable Kalpas! The Patriarch controls the authority of lifespan and can trade in lifespan. Even Tai Chi Realm experts have needs for this!"
Immeasurable Kalpa refers to a super catastrophe capable of causing the destruction and reshaping of the God Realm Sea. One Immeasurable Kalpa actually refers to the time of one cycle of the God Realm Sea's reincarnation - an extremely long period of time.
And the lifespan of the Tai Chi Realm reaches the extent of three thousand Immeasurable Kalpas. One could say describing it as eternal wouldn't be problematic.
Hearing this, the Five Elements Hall Master nodded noncommittally, then suddenly said, "This should be your own idea, right? Not an assigned mission from the Seven Stars Sect?"
Nangong Xianweng's expression didn't change, but his heart was thrown into disorder.
Although the fluctuation wasn't obvious, it was still detected by the Five Elements Hall Master.
The Five Elements Hall Master chuckled inwardly. Indeed, his cultivation experience was too simple, his training too little, his mental state not yet stable enough.
She said calmly, "Since you cannot represent the Seven Stars Sect, please return!"
Nangong Xianweng immediately said, "Although I didn't come here with a mission, I can recommend the entire Five Elements Holy Temple to join the Seven Stars Sect. Don't look at my lowly realm, I still have some relationship with the Patriarch. I can directly report to the Patriarch and request his approval!"
"Oh? Hehe!" The Five Elements Hall Master chuckled lightly.
"I can request the Patriarch's approval right now!" Nangong Xianweng said solemnly.
The Five Elements Hall Master's eyes shifted, then she said, "If you can contact the Patriarch you mentioned, I can consider joining the Seven Stars Sect!"
Nangong Xianweng's expression turned serious. He then took out his sect token and said respectfully, "I respectfully request the Patriarch's presence. Nangong Xianweng wishes to recommend all members of the Five Elements Holy Temple from the Five Elements God Realm Sea to join the Seven Stars Sect. I hope the Patriarch will grant approval!"
