Zhong Shenxiu transford into the elegant and dashing Young Master Shen Xiu, casually sitting atop the White Bone Throne, and suddenly snapped his fingers.

Snap!

Amid the crisp sound, those giant bone hands forcefully tore apart the Demon Refining Chains that resembled a black dragon.

Not only that, the nurous hands reached out to grasp a mysterious light.

"Hold on!"

The Sect Hierarch of the Cloud Mirror Sect was very anxious, fearing that if this continued, the Mountain Protection Array would be destroyed, "My sect has no enmity with fellow Daoist, why resort to this?"

"It was rely a greeting."

Zhong Shenxiu smirked, "Since fellow Daoist has spoken, then let us stop here."

He snapped his fingers again, and the movents of the nurous Ten Thousand Bone Demons surrounding the Cloud Mirror Sect halted, turning them into statue-like figures.

However, the disciples with lower cultivation were already trembling, waking from a nightmare, not daring to gaze at those giant Demon Gods.

After all, rely seeing an arm had almost driven them to demonic possession.

Daring to look again would be suicidal, wouldn’t it?

"I’ve always heard..."

Zhong Shenxiu stood tall, tapping an ivory fan lightly in his hand, "that the Daoist Skills of the Cloud Mirror Sect are extraordinarily unique and have prospered greatly in recent years. I specially ca to discuss with fellow Daoist. For any offense, I ask you not to take it to heart."

’Take it to heart, can I even afford to?’

The Sect Hierarch of the Cloud Mirror Sect cursed inwardly.

He had just controlled the array to et the enemy and still ended up at a disadvantage, realizing that the visitor was formidable and no ordinary Primordial Pill Master.

In terms of cultivation and Daoist power, the visitor was at least a master who had overco the One Disaster!

But he had heard of Young Master Shen Xiu’s na before, a re Divine Skills.

It was already incredibly remarkable to be lucky enough to form a core, how could he have overco a disaster?

’Could it be a genius with an exceptional lineage... Alas, the visitor ans ill.’

The Sect Hierarch of the Cloud Mirror Sect inwardly lanted, forced to put on a smiling face, "What does fellow Daoist wish?"

"This young master has only recently ford his Primordial Pill and is not very familiar with the cultivation at the Primordial Pill Realm, and wishes to seek guidance from fellow Daoist... and by the way, take a look at your Daoist texts."

Zhong Shenxiu laughed.

"You..."

The Sect Hierarch of the Cloud Mirror Sect was so angered he nearly unleashed a thunderstrike on this youth.

Were fundantal Daoist texts sothing that could be freely seen? Did this Young Master Shen Xiu really think he was so influential?

"Sigh... before leaving the mountain, I had already killed an Inner Sect Disciple of the Supre Dragon and Tiger Sect, soon to go on a long-distance journey for refuge, I hope the old ancestor will not disappoint this young master."

Zhong Shenxiu revealed his action of killing a disciple of the Supre Dragon and Tiger Sect with a smirk.

This too was a form of pressure.

If he dared provoke the Supre Dragon and Tiger Sect, wouldn’t he dare to wipe out the Cloud Mirror Sect?

The Sect Hierarch of the Cloud Mirror Sect, whose lifespan was not long and whose ability to fight in magical battles had diminished, now only wanted to preserve his life and teachings.

Under another’s roof, he could only bow his head and sighed, "Fine, fellow Daoist’s questions—whatever I know I will tell, I will not hold back..."

...

Half a day later,

under the complex gazes of the Cloud Mirror Sect, Zhong Shenxiu transford into a fleeing light and swiftly vanished into the distance.

Above the vault of heaven,

Zhong Shenxiu closed his eyes to nurture his spirit, digesting the gains he had just made.

Since sending Chen Wenji away, he had ventured out under the pretense of aiding Jiugong Mountain.

And before the Supre Dragon and Tiger Sect could react, he naturally thought to reap as much as possible.

Though the Daoist Skills of the Cloud Mirror Sect only reached the Primordial Pill Realm, which was inferior to the Dragon Tiger Pill Book, the proverb about stones from other hills perfecting one’s own jade held true; the more Daoist Skills, the rrier, and it also added to his accumulation of the Thousand Transformations Divine Power.

Moreover, though the old ancestor of the Cloud Mirror Sect was not skilled in magical combat, he was sly with age, wise from broad experience, and his insights were quite profound.

As for whether he dared to deceive him?

Anyway, Zhong Shenxiu had no intention of cultivating the Daoist Skills of the Cloud Mirror Sect, he rely wanted to survey them to strengthen his foundations.

Besides, other deceptions weren’t very valuable unless the old ancestor of the Cloud Mirror Sect wished for death and wasn’t afraid of retribution in the future.

"It’s just a pity... the Daoist Skills of the Cloud Mirror Sect are incomplete, and they possess no Primordial Spirit thod..."

Zhong Shenxiu felt sowhat disappointed, "However, I did hear that old ancestor narrate quite a few legends concerning the Primordial Spirit... The Primordial Spirit, possessing eternal life as rely its basic aspect, is fundantally an intangible, subli soul that can even completely refine the physical body into the Primordial Spirit itself, thereafter being able to disperse and gather formlessly, making the combat exceedingly sharp."

"Three Calamities of Nascent Soul, Four Tribulations Primordial Spirit..."

After all, Chen Wenji was only a Divine Skill; when truly discussing Primordial Pill cultivation, he wasn’t very knowledgeable.

But the old ancestor of the Cloud Mirror Sect was different; he was an old Primordial Pill, and although his Mana was inadequate, and he had never transcended even the first calamity, he was indeed much more experienced than Chen Wenji.

"These Three Calamities of Nascent Soul consist of thunder, fire, and wind... After a Primordial Pill Cultivator acquires the Cultivation Technique, diligently cultivates, and thickens his Mana to a certain limit, he will spontaneously provoke these three calamities, sowhat similar to the description in the Journey to the West..."

There was a part in Journey to the West, where Master Puti once said, after the core is ford, to wrest the forces of heaven and earth, and pry into the mysteries of the sun and moon, spirits cannot accommodate, thus there are three calamities upon core formation.

After five hundred years, the heavenly thunder calamity first descends, another five hundred years later, an infernal fire springs forth from the fountain, and another five hundred years later, a malignant wind blows through the viscera, crosses the Dantian, pierces the nine apertures, the flesh disperses, and the body disintegrates by itself.

"It seems there’s so truth to it now, though there are differences as well."

The old ancestor of the Cloud Mirror Sect was an example; he had nearly lived to five hundred years, but because the Cultivation Technique was inadequate and the accumulation of Dao energy was not deep enough, he couldn’t even initiate the first calamity.

Though he didn’t need to die under the Heavenly Tribulation, clearly, there was no hope for eternal life. Once the five hundred-year limit is reached, he would simply die of old age.

However, if he successfully transcends the Heavenly Tribulation, the Primordial Pill Cultivator’s Daoist achievents and Mana will rise to the next level, creating a clear distinction from ordinary Primordial Pills, and could be terd as ’One Disaster True Man’, followed then by Second and Third Disasters.

A Three Calamities True Man can already be regarded as a Primordial Spirit apprentice, yet it does not imdiately result in achieving the Primordial Spirit. It still requires breakthroughs in realm stages.

The Primordial Spirit can disperse and gather at will, eternally indestructible, truly terd as an ancestor, but it still faces its calamities.

The old ancestor of the Cloud Mirror Sect wasn’t too clear about this, only knowing that there are classifications such as First Tribulation Primordial Spirit, Second Tribulation Primordial Spirit, and so forth among the Primordial Spirit Ancestors.

If reaching the Four Tribulations Primordial Spirit, it is only a step away from the Dharma Body, said to be capable of cultivating various ’Dharma Images’.

Dharma Image, that is, an illusion.

It’s rely a faint shadow, a preparation for Dharma Body, representing a Cultivator’s lifeti accumulation and embodying the essence.

If the Dharma Image is transford from illusion to reality, validating various Dharma Bodies, Golden Bodies, Divine Demon Bodies, one can break into the Dharma Body Realm and beco a Sect Hierarch level existence in the major sects!

"The old ancestor of the Cloud Mirror Sect is simply a waste, not even a One Disaster True Man... yet he almost mistook for one, clearly because my accumulations are too profound? If I had obtained the Cultivation Technique, perhaps I could imdiately trigger the first Heavenly Tribulation."

"Fortunately, this ti’s harvest was still quite bountiful."

Zhong Shenxiu was satisfied with the harvest, casually releasing a sword light, and flew away with the controlled sword.

He only planned to do this once, and then Young Master Shen Xiu would disappear into obscurity.

Otherwise, once the investigators from the Supre Dragon and Tiger Sect arrived, if they discovered that the trail of Young Master Shen Xiu was similar to that of Su Daoshi, wouldn’t that be troubleso?
