Zhang Chi took a deep breath and imdiately seized the opportunity, beginning a rapid search.
Soon, he successfully found a black Jade Scroll. Recorded within was the White Bone Divine Forging Technique.
This was not just a Top Grade Refining God Technique; it was also completely intact.
According to the description, this Cultivation Technique wasn’t divided into major Realms like Qi Cultivation and Foundation Establishnt. Instead, like Magic, it was separated into Entry Level, Minor Success, Great Success, and Perfection.
After reaching Entry Level, one’s Divine Sense would be one minor stage higher than their current Realm. At Minor Success, it would be two minor stages higher, and at Great Success, three.
And at Perfection, it would be an entire major Realm higher.
For example, Zhang Chi was at the Qi Cultivation Middle Stage. After reaching Entry Level with the White Bone Divine Forging Technique, his Divine Soul would be comparable to that of an ordinary Qi Cultivation Late Stage cultivator.
At Minor Success, it would be comparable to the Qi Cultivation Peak.
Following this pattern, Great Success would be comparable to the Foundation Establishnt Early Stage, and Perfection would be comparable to the Foundation Establishnt Middle Stage.
This might not seem exaggerated, but at higher levels of Cultivation, the increase would be terrifying.
For example, if soone at the Golden Core Early Stage cultivated this technique to Perfection, their Divine Soul strength and Divine Sense would be directly comparable to a Nascent Soul Powerhouse.
Furthermore, even his Comprehension would strengthen as his Divine Soul improved.
Cultivating Magic and the like would also beco easier, similar to a High Tier Cultivator practicing Low Tier Magic.
’The Cangwu Sect has so detestable people, but it’s actually a great place.’
’After all, even if I went to a Demon Sect, I could never have obtained a Cultivation Technique like this so easily!’ Zhang Chi thought joyfully.
Under normal circumstances, when borrowing a Cultivation Technique, it was impossible to get the complete version right away.
For example, Qi Cultivation Disciples could only access the Qi Cultivation Stage portion.
The Foundation Establishnt portion could only be borrowed after reaching the Foundation Establishnt Realm.
Moreover, an opportunity to exchange for an Upper Grade Cultivation Technique could never be used to obtain a Top Grade Cultivation Technique.
But things were different here.
According to the text on the bookshelf, borrowing any Cultivation Technique here—be it Top Grade or Upper Grade, complete or not—only cost a single opportunity to exchange for an Upper Grade Cultivation Technique.
After all, these techniques were not prepared for ordinary disciples in the first place; they were only available to the Sect’s upper echelons.
Beings of their stature naturally wouldn’t need to borrow a Demon Technique in separate parts.
Nor would they waste a precious opportunity to obtain a normal Top Grade Cultivation Technique on a Demon Technique of the sa grade that they could only study but not actually cultivate.
So, Zhang Chi imdiately took out his Identity Token and placed it on the Restriction covering the White Bone Divine Forging Technique’s Jade Scroll. His reward opportunity was instantly deducted.
Next, a confidentiality Spirit Contract flew out. Overjoyed, Zhang Chi dripped his blood on it without hesitation. The Spirit Contract instantly burned to ashes, and the Jade Scroll then flew out and landed in his hand.
The protective Restriction was instantly restored, and a new Demon Technique Jade Scroll appeared within it.
Apparently, the Cangwu Sect had long since made many copies. The one Zhang Chi received was just one of them.
"Excellent!"
Zhang Chi imdiately read the Jade Scroll. Seeing that the contents were correct, he finally let out a sigh of relief.
He then put the Jade Scroll into his Storage Bag and looked at the other Demon Techniques.
Besides the White Bone Divine Forging Technique, there should be many other techniques here suitable for him to cultivate with the help of his Jade Pendant.
But he was out of exchange opportunities, so that would have to wait for another ti.
Fortunately, obtaining the complete version of the White Bone Divine Forging Technique was already an unexpected windfall.
Afterward, Zhang Chi took his Identity Token and tried to use his opportunity for a Middle Grade Cultivation Technique to exchange for other Demon Techniques, but as expected, it didn’t work.
He couldn’t even open the Restriction to get an Upper Grade Demon Technique.
Thus, he could only give up. He imdiately used his Token to open the room’s main door and walked out.
It wasn’t that he didn’t want to stay longer and learn more about the other Demon Techniques.
It was just that seeing them and not being able to have them was pure tornt.
Staying too long might also arouse the Foundation Establishnt Steward’s suspicion.
As it turned out, when he went outside, he discovered the old Steward had long since disappeared.
So, he imdiately went to the on-duty Cangwu Sect disciples to complain, demanding to confront the old Steward face-to-face and requesting his reward be returned.
But the other party just gave him the runaround, saying they couldn’t solve the problem and accusing him of making false accusations.
He protested repeatedly, but they just told him to go back and wait for the results of an investigation.
His commotion even alerted an unfamiliar Foundation Establishnt Steward.
But this person didn’t uphold justice for him. Instead, looking very impatient, he grabbed Zhang Chi from the air and threw him out.
"How pitiful!"
"Maybe he really did get scamd!"
"Hard to say. Maybe he just failed to choose in ti and is now spouting nonsense."
"Right, things like this have happened before. But this is the first ti I’ve seen soone accidentally waste an opportunity for an Upper Grade Cultivation Technique."
Many fellow disciples were watching, pointing and whispering. So gloated over his misfortune, while others expressed deep sympathy.
In short, word of the incident spread quickly, but no one stepped up to seek justice for Zhang Chi.
Zhang Chi, for his part, put on a look of anger and helplessness, cursing and muttering as he left.
After all, under normal circumstances, an Outer Disciple could never go directly to the Sect’s upper echelons to seek justice.
First, they wouldn’t be able to get a eting.
Second, doing so would offend them and violate the Sect’s rules, leading to severe consequences.
’Acting isn’t easy. But now everyone knows I was scamd and got nothing in return. This should make a little safer.’
’Besides, even if soone suspects I’m cultivating a Demon Technique, they’ll never be able to prove it. To protect the Disciples’ privacy, there are no records of which techniques are exchanged. Plus, with my Jade Pendant’s help, and since I chose a Refining God Technique, there won’t be any external signs.’
Zhang Chi looked miserable, but after getting far away from the Inheritance Hall, a smile gradually spread across his face.
Clearly, his earlier commotion had all been an act.
Although he would be mocked and pitied for it, he didn’t really care.

At that mont, Foundation Establishnt Cultivator Xie was chatting with the old Steward from the Inheritance Hall over tea.
After hearing the latest news, the two of them imdiately sighed in relief, their faces breaking into smiles.
"Second Uncle, thank you for your help this ti," said the Foundation Establishnt Cultivator Xie.
"Heh, it was a small matter. We are from the sa clan; no need to be so formal. With your high Cultivation, and now being on good terms with the Song Family, it’s also a good thing for our Xie Family. I would do anything for the family."
"As for that brat, even if he makes a fuss, no one will pay him any mind. As for , I just need to insist he’s talking nonsense. If we drag this out long enough, the matter will naturally be forgotten."
"You, on the other hand, need to be careful. Even though you received Elixirs from the Song Family, you must not let the Pill Poison affect you," the old Steward said with a wave of his hand.
"Don’t worry, Second Uncle. I will properly polish my Cultivation and lengthen the intervals between taking the Elixirs," the Foundation Establishnt Cultivator Xie said with a nod.
"Mm, that’s good. By the way, you should find a chance to just kill that brat. It’s simpler and safer," the old Steward continued.
"I was thinking the sa thing, but now is not the ti. Otherwise, the Sect’s upper echelons will definitely know we did it. The Song Family would be affected, and they would surely be displeased with ."
"Right now, the brat is within the sect grounds, so it’s not convenient to kill him. But once the new disciple protection period is over, they will have to go out on missions. There will be plenty of opportunities then," the Foundation Establishnt Cultivator Xie agreed.
"Alright. Just be discreet about it. Otherwise, those rivals of our Xie Family will take the opportunity to make a big deal out of it," the old Steward said with a nod.
"Yes, Second Uncle," the Foundation Establishnt Cultivator Xie said respectfully.

"Haha, I can finally start cultivating this technique!"
anwhile, Zhang Chi had already returned to the Outer Disciple Cave Mansion assigned to him by the Sect and was eagerly studying the White Bone Divine Forging Technique in detail.
