My Informative Cultivation Life

"Our fate is intertwined through the legacy of the Sword Dao, but do you know the origin of this sword technique?" Jian Yuanzi looked up and spoke slowly.

"The disciple does not know!" Yang Ji said with a composed expression, "Master, could it be that there is some special origin to this sword technique?"

"This sword technique hails from the Wuji Dao Sect of the Immortal Cultivation Continent, personally brought back by me. Unfortunately, I only possess the first four forms of the Sword Dao." Jian Yuanzi slightly smiled, a rare hint of smug satisfaction flickering in his eyes, yet tinged with a hint of regret.

"Master brought it back from the Wuji Dao Sect? Are you a disciple of the Dao Sect?" Yang Ji's pupils dilated slightly, revealing a touch of emotion.

"I used to be considered half a disciple, but not anymore," Jian Yuanzi shook his head.

Then with a light smile, he straightened his robes gracefully before continuing in a measured tone, "I once had a spot to attend the Dao Sect, but in the end, I was sent back to Canglan Sect for not being excellent enough."

"Master, you are a possessor of a supreme Root Bone with talent and superior innate abilities, how can you not be considered excellent?"

Yang Ji couldn't help but feel indignant on behalf of his master and frowned, "Could it be that the Wuji Dao Sect is full of Spiritual Bodies with Innate Root Bones?"

Jian Yuanzi, however, smiled amicably and said, "Indeed, the Wuji Dao Sect does have numerous Spiritual Bodies and Sacred Bodies, as well as Taoist Bodies naturally close to the Great Dao, and even Immortal Bodies born with a trace of the Great Dao Principles. These are the true favored children of the heavens, the darlings of the sky, and I cannot help but envy them."

"There are so many geniuses in the Wuji Dao Sect?" Yang Ji was genuinely surprised.

"Yes, there are too many geniuses. But if you understand that the Wuji Dao Sect is one of the strongest among the Ten Great Dao Sects in our Cultivation World, then you will comprehend why there are so many geniuses there. After all, the Wuji Dao Sect gathers nearly a tenth of the geniuses from this Cultivation World. Can there not be many?"

Jian Yuanzi smiled nonchalantly, "Compared to them, I indeed have a huge gap."

"It is said that dragons beget dragons, and phoenixes beget phoenixes. Offspring born from the union of the strong inherently carry the seed of spirits, the sacred, the dao, and even that of immortals."

"This kind of background is nearly impossible to break through. The only possibility is a blind misstep by an Immortal Fairy with the Cultivation of a Loose Immortal, who would bestow herself upon you, resulting in an offspring that at the very least, is of sacred seed."

"But such tales of Immortals pairing with mortals exist only in legends. Disciple, you probably won't have such an opportunity, and although you are rather handsome, it's unlikely that any heaven-reaching Immortal Fairy will take a fancy to you."

"However, one should always have dreams, for what if they do come true? The offspring would then be the hope of our Canglan Sect's future."

"Master, this is...!" Yang Ji couldn't help but laugh. He never expected his master, who always seemed detached, to have such a humorous side.

"Disciple, remember that sometimes living off a woman is a skill in itself," Jian Yuanzi said with a slight smile, his tone utterly serious.

Yang Ji smiled wryly and nodded, still somewhat puzzled as he asked, "Master, could it be that there aren't any disciples with less than supreme Root Bone in the Wuji Dao Sect?"

"Of course there are," Jian Yuanzi said slowly.

"Within the Wuji Dao Sect's territory, disciples with Superior Root Bones and even Medium Root Bones can easily join the Sect, and the demands on them aren't too high."

"But for those of us from outside their territories, the requirements are very high."

"Unless one is exceptionally outstanding, it is difficult to stand out. Otherwise, like your master, who is mediocre, one would not pass the Sect's assessment and would be sent back to their original sect."

Yang Ji frowned slightly and said, "Could it be that Master's supreme Root Bone is still not as good as those of Medium Root Bones within their territory?"

Jian Yuanzi laughed casually and said, "The path of Cultivation relies on abilities for four parts, opportunities for three, and the remaining three parts depend on understanding human relationships and worldly wisdom."

"In these three aspects, it seems your master is rather lacking."

"And those within the territory, being closer and more well-connsected, indeed have the chance to stay in the Dao Sect, with the assessment requirements being lower for them."

"Your uncle master Ling Gu must have told you that the strength of a sect is not determined by the number of people, but by the top cultivators."

"Geniuses within the Wuji Dao Sect are treasured as precious existences, as they will become the backbone of the sect in the future,"

"Whereas cultivators like your master, who are average, neither outstanding nor poor, are the most common and least noticeable in the sect, and face the fiercest competition."

"To my shame, I couldn't continue to stay in the sect after losing out in the fierce competition with fellow sect members."

"However, people like us are not completely abandoned by the sect. Each time we send a genius to the sect, the sect bestows rich rewards upon us, such as medicine pills and magic artifacts, and so on."

"It can be said that this is a significant reason why our Canglan Sect remains powerful. All the great divine skills within the sect were bestowed upon us by the Dao Sect, and we have benefited greatly from them."

Jian Yuanzi paused, then added, "Chang Xiao and I both have supreme spiritual roots, but his comprehension is far better than mine."

"If he goes to the Dao Sect and displays extraordinary talents in comprehension, then the sect will bestow upon him spiritual objects to enhance his spiritual roots, and his aspiration to achieve a Postnatal Spiritual Body is not a mere fantasy."

"If he can stay in the Dao Sect forever, then our Canglan Sect will receive the Dao Sect's rewards every year, which are greatly beneficial. This is also one of the reasons why the entire sect is cultivating Chang Xiao with all its might."

"Similarly, the talent you have shown in comprehension is equally outstanding. If you can join the Dao Sect and establish yourself firmly, then it will truly be a new chapter for our Canglan Sect,"

"And for you personally, the benefits will be immense."

"Because the Dao Sect is so powerful, inside it are immortal artifacts that can alter the flow of time, quickly cultivating various spiritual medicines, with resources being endless. Everything like Nine-Transformation Golden Pills, Enlightenment Pills, Divine Ascension Pills, Nascent Soul Pills are available in abundance."

"Additionally, the immortal artifacts can also draw in the Immortal Qi from the Immortal Realm and refine it into Immortal Essence Pills. As long as you are outstanding enough, you could be inundated with so many Immortal Essence Pills that you wouldn't be able to look up."

"..." Yang Ji silently listened, his heart greatly shaken. This Dao Sect was truly too powerful.

Indeed, only such a powerful sect could give birth to immortals.

Right then, he eagerly asked, "Master, how can one join the Dao Sect? How can one gain recognition?"

Jian Yuanzi said, "First by cultivation, and second by comprehension. Cultivation is most visibly judged by spiritual roots, because good spiritual roots mean faster progress in early cultivation, and comprehension is most visibly judged by mastery of techniques. If you have exceptional talents, your techniques can achieve great completion very quickly."

"Of course, in your master's view, nothing is more shocking than you, with your lower-grade spiritual roots, defeating a spiritual body."

"You, merely a cultivator with lower-grade spiritual roots—who would know you have high comprehension? Therefore, you must wield your sword to carve out the path of an unprecedented genius."

"In the past, your master knew that with my supreme spiritual roots, it was difficult to be exceptionally extraordinary in cultivation, so I chose the path of the sword immortal. I wanted to use my sword and the sword dao to carve out a path to immortality, but unfortunately, I failed."

"However, the comprehension you have shown has given your master a glimmer of hope. Your master hopes that you will choose the path of the sword immortal in the future."

"The path of a sword immortal, unbeatable in the same realm, that allows one to battle across realms, relies on your superior understanding of techniques and the explosive power that comes with it."

"Of course, cultivation is equally important. Your master will help you improve your cultivation as much as possible."

"When you set foot in the Dao Sect, your master hopes you stand tall and unwavering like a sword!"
