Immortality Starts With Ignorant Heart Sword Art

Chapter 248 Transcendent Level Sect

After the completion of the Heavenly Court's evolution, Zhong Cang's consciousness also regained clarity.

Outside, when Qing Qiu saw Zhong Cang open his eyes, she hesitated and asked, "Has your Yin Soul Transformation been completed?"

"Mm."

After hearing this, Zhong Cang noticed that Qing Qiu's expression was a bit strange, so he straightforwardly asked, "Perfected Being, do you have any questions?"

"Well... cough, I sensed the aura of the Yellow Court Heart Sutra from you... the aura of the third level of cultivation?"

Upon hearing this question, Zhong Cang was momentarily stunned, but then he nodded and said, "Indeed, I have achieved it. Through the sublimation and transformation of my soul, I was fortunate enough to attain enlightenment and used the enlightenment's boost to create the Cloud Firmament Palace."

"..."

Qing Qiu fell silent after hearing this answer.

Although she had already guessed when she sensed the aura of the third level of the Yellow Court Heart Sutra, getting a real confirmation still left her feeling dazed.

"He really achieved it..."

Looking at Zhong Cang, Qing Qiu didn't know what to say for a while.

In the end, she didn't say anything and silently accompanied Zhong Cang back to the Heavenly Sea Immortal Market to retrieve Ling Que and Xiang Ling, who were placed in the Four Seas Pavilion. After that, they hurried back to the Cloud Firmament Sect.

However, since everything was already done, Qing Qiu had no urgent matters to attend to, so she didn't immediately return. Instead, she rested in the Heavenly Sea Immortal Market for a night.

During her rest, she informed the Cloud Firmament Sect of Zhong Cang's impending return and arranged for them to receive him.

...

"Preparing to come back? Senior Martial Uncle, has my little junior brother completed his invincible path?"

Tao Juran asked. Although Qing Qiu contacted the Sect Master Lin Yuan, at this moment, they were in a meeting with other hall masters, so Tao Juran also learned about this news.

Being carefree and unconventional, he had been curious about Zhong Cang's invincible path since he embarked on it. Now, he straightforwardly asked his question.

Qing Qiu gave him an answer.

"He has completed it. Zhong Cang's soul has already been tempered by the Thunder Tribulation and transformed from Yin to Yang."

Tao Juran said, "Completing the soul tempering in advance, my junior brother will definitely become a Gold Core cultivator. The only question is whether it will be Second Grade or First Grade... By the way, Senior Martial Uncle, I heard that when you left in the past, you also brought the highest sect's technique, the Yellow Court Heart Sutra. I wonder if my little junior brother has learned it?"

"!"

This question not only piqued Tao Juran's interest but also caught the attention of the other hall masters and even the Sect Master Lin Yuan. They were all eager to hear Qing Qiu's answer.

Clearly, they were very interested in this matter.

However, Qing Qiu fell silent in response to such inquiries.

After a long while, she finally spoke with a complex tone, "He has learned it."

Upon hearing this, the Gold Core and Nascent Soul cultivators in the Cloud Firmament Sect's main hall let out a sigh of relief.

Discussions and debates immediately broke out in the hall.

However, while they were discussing, the Perfected Beings and Qing Qiu didn't show much shock or surprise.

"Indeed, he has learned it."

"Although it seems impossible, when you think about it carefully, Zhong Cang has already achieved an invincible path. Although the Yellow Court Heart Sutra is difficult, it shouldn't be an obstacle for him."

"Indeed, comprehending the Yellow Court Heart Sutra at the Foundation Building stage may seem exaggerated, but isn't achieving an invincible path at the Foundation Building stage also extraordinary?"

"I always believed that he would succeed!"

"It's a pity that such a disciple doesn't belong to my Law Enforcement Hall..."

Tao Juran said, "I'm the one who regrets it. At that time, I had the opportunity to take Zhong Cang as my disciple, but in the blink of an eye, he went from being my disciple to being my junior brother."

"Hahaha, who told you not to be decisive at that time..."

Having powerful disciples is advantageous for the Cloud Firmament Sect, especially in this era when they have many formidable enemies, such as the Demon Sect and the Dao Sect Alliance, who have been eyeing them, as well as the Monster Kingdom, which has always been their enemy.

Even in the mortal realm, there are hidden dangers.

For various reasons, the sect views Zhong Cang's strength with delight.

However, while the Perfected Beings and Qing Qiu were celebrating, the Sect Master Lin Yuan furrowed his brows.

As Qing Qiu's senior brother for hundreds of years, he sensed that something was off with her emotions, so he worriedly asked, "Qing Qiu, your tone doesn't sound right. Did something happen?"

"...Nothing."

"If it's nothing, you wouldn't use that tone to speak to me."

"..."

Faced with her senior brother's concerned questioning, Qing Qiu pondered for a moment before explaining the complex reasons for her current mood.

Then, the mood of the Perfected Beings and Qing Qiu in the Cloud Firmament Sect's main hall became less beautiful, just like Qing Qiu's.

Qing Qiu Master: "If there is something, there is indeed something that has happened beyond my expectations. This matter is related to Zhong Cang... His Yellow Court Heart Sutra is not just an introductory level, but has reached the third level of cultivation. The Cloud Palace group has already been derived by him."

"And from my speculation, the third level is not his limit at all. If there is a fourth level of the Divine Rhythm Diagram, he has a certain chance of condensing the Primordial Origin Boundless Heavenly Monarch."

"?!?!"

"..."

"..."

Such a response made all the Perfected Beings in the Cloud Palace fall silent.

Many of the Perfected Beings couldn't control their expressions and looked dumbfounded.

After a while, a dry voice finally sounded.

Tao Juran: "Ahem, Master, Master Uncle, this joke isn't funny, is it?"

Qing Qiu Master: "Do you think I would joke about something like this?"

Tao Juran understood his Master Uncle's personality, so he knew that he was not someone who would make jokes lightly.

However, compared to Zhong Cang, who had cultivated the Yellow Court Heart Sutra to the third level in a short period of time, he would rather believe that his Master Uncle had suddenly changed.

It's not his fault for thinking this way, as this matter has had a huge impact on him.

It's no different from someone suddenly saying in the year 2023 that nuclear fusion power plants have been put into use!

Who wouldn't be shocked to hear such news?

Especially Tao Juran, who had also cultivated the Yellow Court Heart Sutra and knew how difficult it was.

Therefore, in his expectation, even if Zhong Cang had high talent, he should only be at the introductory level.

It is completely unreasonable for him to have reached the third level of cultivation.

Soon, the Lord of the Law Enforcement Hall, Xing Chao, discovered an even more terrifying thing.

"Wait, Zhong Cang only came into contact with the Yellow Court Heart Sutra less than a month ago, right? Qing Qiu, don't tell me that little guy has cultivated the Yellow Court Heart Sutra to the third level within a month!"

This question made all the Perfected Beings in the room feel uneasy.

Yes, they were uneasy.

They both hoped that Zhong Cang had indeed cultivated the Yellow Court Heart Sutra to the third level within a month, which would mean that a monstrous genius had truly emerged in their sect.

But they also felt complicated and didn't want to hear it.

If Zhong Cang succeeded in cultivating in a month, it would make them, who had taken decades to achieve the same level, look foolish and stupid.

The excessive stimulation might even make some cultivators lose confidence and feel that they were wasting resources.

...

No matter what the people in the Cloud Palace were thinking, their thoughts could not affect Qing Qiu Master, who was far away in the Cloud Dream Heavenly Domain.

Therefore, the words that silenced them quickly echoed in the hall again.

"Yes, as Senior Brother Xing Chao said, Zhong Cang... prepared to say, within seven days, he cultivated the Yellow Court Heart Sutra to the third level."

"..."

Silence once again enveloped the Cloud Palace. After a while, a desolate voice sounded.

Tao Juran: "Took thirty years to cultivate to the third level, and I thought I was a genius. It's truly laughable."

"If you're laughable, what am I, a waste? It took me forty-eight years to cultivate the Yellow Court Heart Sutra to the third level."

"I took seventy-two years..."

While the high-level members of the Cloud Palace were besieged by the Demon Sect Alliance, Zhong Cang's talent in cultivation left them feeling desolate.

In the end, Sect Master Lin Yuan forcefully suppressed the bitterness in his heart and encouraged everyone.

"Alright, don't be desolate. Zhong Cang's strength is a good thing for our Cloud Firmament Sect. Especially now that we have resources from the Lower Realm and a genius like Zhong Cang. If he can maintain this rate of progress, our Cloud Firmament Sect even has the possibility of advancing to a Transcendent Level sect."

A Transcendent Level sect!!!

These four words made the eyes of the elders and the hall masters in the Cloud Palace light up.

Their emotions became even more excited.

It's not their fault for feeling this way. Transcendent Level sects are of great significance to them. It's not just a matter of honor, but also represents resources.

With the resources provided by a Transcendent Level sect, their cultivation can be further improved.

And in the Hongxuan Continent, cultivation is equivalent to strength, status, power, and... lifespan.

This is what everyone desires.

Who wouldn't hope to have the possibility of further advancement?

While hoping, these people also understood that the hope of the Cloud Firmament Sect advancing to a Transcendent Level sect lies with Zhong Cang.

Therefore, these people no longer felt jealous of Zhong Cang, but instead thought about how to help him become even stronger and more monstrous.

"Ahem, three hundred years ago, I found some Primordial Essence Marrow. This can be given to Zhong Cang to further solidify his foundation."

"I have a Heavenly Yuan Fruit here..."

"Everyone, what is most important for Zhong Cang now is the Heavenly Dipper Qi and Earthly Fiend Qi. This is crucial to Zhong Cang's future. We must not underestimate it. If we want his talent to be fully realized, we must find the best demonic energy for him!"

"Demonic energy? There is an opportunity right now!"
