The major movement of the True Martial Sect quickly spread through Qing State, and then expanded rapidly to other places.
Many people, upon hearing about the True Martial Sect’s opening of its mountain gates, were excited, and some ambitious young men set out overnight, traveling thousands of miles.
There were also some Gang Essence Realm experts who knew they could join the True Martial Sect midway and were tempted. Although the standards for joining midway were stricter, and the competition fiercer, almost cutting off access to the core, it was still better than having no sect.
Luo Wentian’s series of measures.
The True Martial Sect radiated with even more vigorous vitality.
Every day on True Martial Mountain was a change.
The last time there was such a major movement was Taoist Longshan’s Celestial Being Grand Ceremony, but this time it was even more. Many buildings began to be re-planned, divided into various functional areas, such as the newly built Scripture Pavilion for storing ordinary Taoist scriptures and some less precious martial arts.
The Scripture Pavilion near the Seeking Tao Institute originally housed more precious ultimate skills and secret techniques, as well as the Taoist scriptures Ning Qi wished to read.
Knowing that Ning Qi was the True Man Tianjian, he felt confident about this Scripture Pavilion.
The True Martial Sect flourished.
Ning Qi’s heart was also joyful.
Emotionally speaking, witnessing the daily growth of his sect filled him with an inner satisfaction.
In other respects, the growth of the True Martial Sect meant more strong people, who naturally could better gather numerous resources for him. A sect is a large organization; it’s never a one-sided affair where disciples receive all guidance and provide everything. Once disciples grow, they also need to contribute to the sect.
Exotic fruits and flowers, rare copies, unique secret techniques, Taoist scriptures... such things naturally don’t just fly in thin air.
They are harvested by disciples, who then contribute to the sect to exchange for martial arts and more suitable resources they seek.
Therefore, Ning Qi believes Luo Wentian’s refinement of the contribution system is a very beneficial thing.
In truth, it’s not solely the work of Luo Wentian. As early as the previous two True Martial Peach Assemblies, various senior brothers had begun discussing the details of refinement, with many suggestions stemming from Ning Qi.
Now, it’s merely carried out by Luo Wentian. The new Sect Leader’s bold moves naturally elevate his prestige further.
If there’s any disadvantage to Luo Wentian now.
It’s that his cultivation is not very high.
He broke through the White Mist Realm only two years ago, and at the original cultivation speed, reaching the Jade Liquid Realm would take ten or even twenty years. Even with the assistance of Ning Qi’s created secret techniques and pills, breaking through to the Jade Liquid in just two years is impossible. After all, even Ning Qi himself took a year to go from the White Mist Realm to the Jade Liquid Realm.
But Ning Qi has a solution.
He handed Luo Wentian some trump cards, like the Gang Attachment Technique he created. At critical moments, it could enable Luo Wentian to unleash astonishing combat power, and deceive others, needing only one chance to demonstrate, making it impossible for anyone to question the Sect Leader’s strength.
Just wait for a few more years; once cultivation further breaks through, reaching the Jade Liquid Realm or Primordial Core Realm, there will be no need to rely on external forces.
Even though Ning Qi has created many secret techniques for accelerated cultivation, it’s impossible for them to quickly break through several realms in just a year or two, reaching Celestial Human. It defies cultivation principles; after all, even Ning Qi needs to accumulate slowly in the Gang Essence Realm, step by step.
Thanks to the many secret techniques created by Ning Qi, the cultivation speed of Luo Wentian and others now breaks conventional norms. Disciples like the seventh disciple Song City and the sixth disciple Sun Chuanhai have reached the White Mist Realm in their thirties, faster than Taoist Long Shan.
If they didn’t obscure their age, it would have attracted many astonished looks.
"To break through faster, normal cultivation can’t be quicker than this unless there’s a great opportunity from swallowing heavenly materials and earthly treasures, or it harms one’s essence, burning lifespan to accelerate growth, but that’s not worth it."
Ning Qi shakes his head.
Neither he nor his senior brothers need this.
Accelerating cultivation by burning lifespan is backtracking for him.
His cultivation is for pursuing longevity, unhurried freedom; now, everything is well, it’s best to proceed step by step.
"When I reach the Celestial Human Realm or Martial Saint Realm in the future, I should reorganize my Martial Path, possibly further enhancing the limits of cultivation speed."
Ning Qi still must focus more energy on himself.
Swallowing the ninth Blood Jade Pill.
Getting closer to breakthrough to the Primordial Core Realm.
