Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan

Chapter 705 - 711: Hidden Stash

”May I ask for your esteemed insight?” someone called out.

Xiaoqing humbly shook her head and said, ”I dare not claim to have any lofty insights. I will simply share my thoughts, and everyone may just listen.”

”Letʼs all join forces to first break the formation of the Scripture Pavilion, then dispatch one person from each faction to enter and find the jade slip filled with the roster of names, and make it public. If there are methods anyone desires, they can then locate them accordingly and make copies,” she suggested.

It is precisely because the Nascent Soul ancestors of Xuanfa Pavilion look down upon the Qing Xuan Sectʼs methods that these have remained until now, isnʼt it?

They say the Qing Xuan Sect has produced Nascent Soul cultivators, but in the span of a thousand years, only two have emerged, and neither could break beyond the mid-stage of their Nascent Soul life.

Perhaps they were just two lucky individuals. How could the methods of such a sect catch the eye of those Nascent Soul elders?

”But who goes first and who goes after?” someone questioned.

”Naturally, it should be in the order of arrival. If someone dares to take action within the Scripture Pavilion, the cultivators nearby have the duty to expel them,” Xiaoqing said with a smile.

”This is a good idea!”

After a moment of silence, suddenly someone shouted out in agreement.

If one were to observe carefully, they would notice that the first batch of Nascent Souls who agreed were the weaker ones.

If the previous rules were followed, with their strength, they would not have access to any superior methods, but now they too could obtain those rare and precious inheritances.

Compared with the former option, there was nothing to hesitate about!

As the trend dictated, even if some Nascent Souls were not completely satisfied, they could not stand out in opposition.

Having decided on the plan, the dozens of Nascent Soul cultivators present temporarily set aside their grievances and discussed how to break the formation.

Formations like those of the Scripture Pavilion, designed to prevent the leaking of methods, typically include a self-destruct mechanism, and the Qing Xuan Sectʼs was no exception.

Luckily, among the numerous cultivators, there were two or three Array Masters. Collaborating to decipher an unmanned dead formation posed no problem, and it took less than an hour to break the formation without any noise.

Each faction sent in a Golden Core, and it was not long before the roster jade slip was brought out and the methods were made public for all cultivators to see.

”After you enter the Scripture Pavilion, prioritize copying the skills and methods, then Divine Powers, secret news, and secret techniques. Cultivation techniques come last, do you understand?” Xiaoqing transmitted her voice to the dozen or so Li family cultivators behind her.

The Li familyʼs cultivation technique, the Wanling Sutra, can be cultivated up to the sixth order of Void Refinement realm, which is already beyond the limit of this world. Unless itʼs a sixth order technique or a higher seventh order technique, thereʼs no need to bother with others.

And the Qing Xuan Sect does not have sixth or seventh order cultivation techniques.

As for skills, Divine Powers, and secret techniques, although it seems that the Li family has inherited them for over a thousand years, they have truly risen for less than three hundred years. For a cultivation power, this is an extremely short time, merely more than half the lifespan of a Golden Core cultivator.

So it is quite normal for them to lack depth, and now that they have the opportunity to enhance their foundation, how could they miss it?

Unfortunately, places like storerooms and Spirit Fields, despite being protected by formations, are now targeted by the Nascent Soul cultivators of the Xuanfa Pavilion.

Though they only took some rare and valuable Spiritual Objects, the formations have been destroyed. The original disciples and nearby Loose Cultivators would have dug three feet into the ground to find what remained, so how could any Spiritual Objects remain?

”Understood!”

```

”Letʼs go.” Seeing that Cultivators had already entered the Scripture Pavilion, Xiaoqing led the group and charged in.

He and Feng Peng headed straight for the top floor, planning to check out the Qing Xuan Sectʼs most precious methods first.

The room wasnʼt large, with only eight jade columns inside, each holding a Jade Slip.

Before they could examine them, a few Nascent Soul Cultivators burst in, and with no time to lose, they each grabbed the nearest Jade Slip and started to look through it.

The Jade Slip Xiaoqing was looking at detailed a very powerful Divine Power called ”Pot Sky Skill.” According to the description, when cultivated to a high level, it could create a world similar to the Spirit Realm inside vessels like a spirit pot.

He didnʼt scrutinize the content, and taking advantage of othersʼ inattention, he quietly swapped the Jade Slip in his hand for a Cultivation Technique from the Li family, an incomplete method capable of cultivating to the Divinity Transformation Realm.

It was considered incomplete because it lacked the foundational stages of Qi Cultivation, Foundation Establishment, and Golden Core, possessing only the Nascent Soul and Divine Transformation stages, much like a castle in the air, seemingly magnificent but could collapse with the slightest disturbance.

However, for powers lacking high-level Cultivation Techniques, it was indeed valuable.

Pretending to copy the method again, Xiaoqing then went to wait by the others, but it took him a whole half-day for the eight Jade Slips!

Had it not been for Feng Pengʼs help, he might have needed a full day to finish. Several times, Xiaoqing wanted to take action, but remembering Li Zhiruiʼs repeated instructions before leaving, he ultimately decided to wait obediently by the side.

Several days later.

Aboard the Li familyʼs Spirit Boat, the Cultivators who had previously been full of energy now had pallid faces and unsteady steps, looking as if they had been completely drained.

In fact, they had been drained!

In just a few days, they had copied tens of thousands of Jade Slips, with each person copying several hundred on average!

You should know that copying Jade Slips consumes a lot of Divine Sense, especially those complex and mysterious methods, which are extremely draining on the mind.

They had lost all interest in the world and wished for nothing more than to sleep for three days and nights!

Compared to other factions, the Li family Cultivators were doing relatively well, as most of the Jade Slips they dealt with were various skills. Although many were incomprehensible to them, they were at least more understandable than techniques such as Cultivation Techniques.

”Great job, everyone. Go back to your rooms and rest for a while. It wonʼt be long before we return to Wanxian Island.”

Compared to those Golden Core and Foundation Establishment Cultivators, Xiaoqing and Feng Peng were in better shape, so they steered the returning Spirit Boat.

”When did you get so smart?” Feng Peng looked Xiaoqing up and down as if he had never known him, a look that didnʼt seem to match someone who would say such things.

Xiaoqing curled his lips and said, ”Itʼs all from Jiuʼs instructions before we left. Otherwise, with my nature, why would I negotiate with them? I would have just fought and snatched the methods.”

”It seems youʼre quite good at pretending; even I was fooled by you. Have you ever deceived me before?”

Xiaoqing did not respond to that but said instead, ”Donʼt mention it, Jiuʼs method really wasnʼt bad; we obtained so many methods so smoothly. And I also secretly kept a Divine Power that looks very powerful.”

Undoubtedly other Cultivators had also thought of and taken actions to conceal Jade Slips for themselves. After all, like Xiaoqing, upon encountering some profound method, they certainly wouldnʼt want to share it with other factions.

”Hmph!” Feng Peng snorted coldly and didnʼt bother with him anymore.
