A few days passed in the blink of an eye.

News of Jiang Hao clearing the ninth level of the Desolate Heaven Tower spread throughout the Huangtian Sect, causing a huge sensation.

However, the news had gradually calmed down.

"Jiang Hao, your Master needs to return. The martial arts hall is without a Transforming Force martial artist, and something might happen if it's left unattended for too long."

Zhao Heita said to Jiang Hao.

He had been staying at Jiang Hao's cave abode for a few days.

It was time to leave.

"Master, I still can't bring you to the Huangtian Sect yet..."

Although Jiang Hao's status as an Inner Disciple of the Huangtian Sect was indeed very noble.

It was still very difficult to bring Zhao Heita back to the Huangtian Sect.

"It's fine. Now that you've become an Inner Disciple of the Huangtian Sect, you can focus on practicing martial arts with peace of mind."

"You have only one goal now, and that is to Enter the Dao!"

"Remember, no matter what happens or what disputes you encounter, your own strength is the most important thing."

"Disciple remembers Master's teachings!"

Zhao Heita patted Jiang Hao.

Big Tiger also came over and rubbed against Zhao Heita's leg, showing its reluctance to part.

"Jiang Hao, your Master will be waiting in Cang City for your good news about Entering the Dao..."

With that, Zhao Heita left.

Zhao Heita was very satisfied with this trip. Even if he returned to Cang City, he had no regrets.

Zhao Heita had done what he needed to do.

He had even done it exceptionally well.

The rest would depend on Jiang Hao.

"Entering the Dao..."

Jiang Hao nodded silently.

He had cleared the ninth level of the Desolate Heaven Tower and had communicated with the Tower Spirit extensively.

Jiang Hao's knowledge and experience were now vastly different from before.

Although he was still only a Manifest Force martial artist.

His goal was already to Enter the Dao.

This was not aiming too high; it was very fitting for Jiang Hao's current situation.

However, regardless of the goal, practicing martial arts required building a solid foundation step by step.

Jiang Hao's Great Sun Golden Crow Divine Blood could not be further improved for the time being.

After all, he did not have the Blood of Origin yet.

As for the Great Sun Battle Sacred Body, he had not even begun to cultivate it.

"The Great Sun Battle Sacred Body is extremely difficult to cultivate, requiring both Comprehension and Bone Root, and the requirements are extremely high!"

"I can feel that with my Comprehension, cultivating the Great Sun Battle Sacred Body to just the introductory level should be no problem. But to achieve it in a short period, that's a big issue."

"Unless my Comprehension can improve again, reaching above 10, perhaps I could enter the initial stage immediately!"

"But for now, I'll have to rely on time and careful consideration."

Jiang Hao was not too disappointed.

The Great Sun Battle Sacred Body had a huge advantage.

That was, it hardly consumed any resources.

It only required the resources needed for normal martial arts practice.

This was very different from other Sacred Bodies.

Other Sacred Bodies, especially some special Sacred Bodies, required special and rare resources.

Those resources were very difficult to obtain.

But the Great Sun Battle Sacred Body did not require any special or rare resources at all.

Normal cultivation was sufficient.

The only special aspect was probably the high requirements for Comprehension and Bone Root.

Especially Comprehension.

Jiang Hao estimated that if his Comprehension was not above 5, he wouldn't even be able to start.

With Comprehension above 5, he could start, but it would take a long time.

The higher one's comprehension, the easier it is to cultivate the Great Sun Battle Sacred Body.

However, Jiang Hao's Great Sun Battle Sacred Body wouldn't be able to get started in a short period. Still, Jiang Hao continued to cultivate normally.

Over time, the Great Sun Battle Sacred Body would also be able to get started.

Of course, Jiang Hao would also improve his comprehension as quickly as possible.

"Besides the Great Sun Battle Sacred Body, I haven't even finished cultivating my own force. I currently only have seven top-tier Manifest Force cultivation methods. With my purified vitality and blood, I can cultivate three more Manifest Force cultivation methods."

With this thought, Jiang Hao got up and left his cave dwelling, heading towards the Huangtian Sect's "Martial Tower."

"Roar..."

Big Tiger suddenly bit Jiang Hao's pant leg.

It bared its teeth.

Recently, Big Tiger had been having a blast at the Huangtian Sect.

The Huangtian Sect also had many "variant species".

They were all similar to Big Tiger.

There were orangutans, monkeys, black bears, wild boars, and so on, all belonging to the variant species.

Big Tiger played with these variant species every day.

After all, they were all variant species with some intelligence, and they wouldn't fight to the death like ordinary beasts.

"Big Tiger, do you want to cultivate?"

After Big Tiger gestured for a while, Jiang Hao finally understood what it meant.

"That old orangutan is cultivating, and you can't beat the old orangutan, so you want to cultivate too?"

Jiang Hao was amused and exasperated.

So, Big Tiger had been "dealt with" by the old orangutan.

It was upset and therefore wanted to cultivate.

After all, Big Tiger was the king of beasts.

To be dealt with by an old orangutan must have been incredibly frustrating.

Jiang Hao knew the old orangutan Big Tiger was talking about.

It was indeed a variant species.

It was even bigger than Big Tiger, so how could Big Tiger possibly win?

Jiang Hao estimated that even if the old orangutan wasn't a Great Demon of Entering the Dao, it was probably close.

If nothing unexpected happened, Big Tiger would probably never be able to defeat that old orangutan in its lifetime.

However, if it could cultivate, things would be different.

Jiang Hao had thought about letting Big Tiger cultivate before, but he lacked the cultivation methods.

After all, Jiang Hao hadn't even gathered all his own cultivation methods, let alone ones for Big Tiger.

But now, it was different.

The Huangtian Sect definitely had many cultivation methods.

"Big Tiger, I'll go to the 'Martial Tower' to see if there are any suitable cultivation methods for you. You stay in the cave dwelling and don't run around anymore."

Jiang Hao patted Big Tiger's head.

Big Tiger obediently lay down on the ground, staying put in the cave dwelling.

Jiang Hao arrived at the "Martial Tower."

There were many disciples inside.

Most of them were Outer Gate disciples.

Although Jiang Hao had only been at the Huangtian Sect for a few days, as he walked, most of the disciples he encountered would look at him with curiosity.

It was the same now.

There were many Outer Gate and Inner Gate disciples in the Martial Tower, and they kept glancing at Jiang Hao from time to time.

They were even whispering amongst themselves.

"Isn't that Jiang Hao, who recently made a name for himself by clearing the ninth level of the Desolate Heaven Tower and directly entering the Inner Gate?"

"Yes, it's Jiang Hao!"

"We should call him Senior Brother Jiang Hao now! Although Senior Brother Jiang Hao is young and only recently joined the Huangtian Sect, he is an Inner Gate Senior Brother. Don't forget the rules of the Huangtian Sect; everyone who enters the Inner Gate must be addressed as Senior Brother."

"Inner Gate... an Inner Gate disciple at the Manifest Force level, he's the only one."

Many people were envious and filled with emotion.

The title of Inner Gate disciple wasn't just a title; it came with tangible benefits and advantages.

Like now.

As Jiang Hao entered the "Martial Arts Tower," an elder glanced at his identification token and nodded, saying, "Jiang Hao, your feat of clearing the ninth level of the Desolate Heaven Tower is truly remarkable."

"As per the Sect Master's instructions, you are now an Inner Disciple with Manifest Force cultivation. Any techniques below Transforming Force are free for you. However, you may only study and practice them yourself; they cannot be shared."

"Thank you, Elder."

Jiang Hao bowed respectfully.

He was quite pleased.

Jiang Hao didn't care about empty titles.

But he wouldn't pass up tangible benefits.

He already knew that only contribution points were circulated within the Huangtian Sect.

Outer Gate disciples had to use contribution points to exchange for any cultivation technique they wished to practice.

But Jiang Hao didn't need to.

Techniques below Transforming Force were free for him to cultivate.

Jiang Hao naturally wouldn't miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

He immediately began searching for techniques at the Manifest Force level.

The Huangtian Sect had many cultivation techniques.

Especially Manifest Force techniques; they were so numerous they filled the entire first floor of the Martial Arts Tower.

After all, techniques for cultivating force were somewhat special.

Some martial artists needed to consider their compatibility with the force cultivation techniques.

Jiang Hao didn't need to worry about compatibility.

His Bone Root was exceptionally powerful.

It was enough to disregard compatibility with techniques and forcefully cultivate the force.

"I heard there are Divine Force techniques in the Huangtian Sect, known as Divine Skills!"

Jiang Hao's target was naturally Divine Skills.

They were ranked above the top Manifest Force techniques.

Each Divine Skill could amplify power by forty to fifty percent.

Don't underestimate this increase of one or two percent.

But even this small increase created a gap in a martial artist's foundation and strength.

"Found them! Wind Thunder Divine Force, Heavenly Flame Divine Force, Ice Divine Force!"

"These are the three great Divine Skills of the Huangtian Sect at the Manifest Force level. There are, and only are, these three Manifest Force Divine Skills."

Jiang Hao's eyes lit up.

Didn't he just need three more Manifest Force techniques?

It was perfect; he would cultivate these three Manifest Force Divine Skills.

Thus, Jiang Hao approached the elder at the Martial Arts Tower and said, "Elder, this disciple has chosen his martial arts techniques."

"Which techniques?"

"Wind Thunder Divine Force, Heavenly Flame Divine Force, and Ice Divine Force!"

"Are those the three great Divine Skills of Manifest Force? Wait, you've already cleared the ninth level of the Desolate Heaven Tower, and you still need to cultivate force?"

"Elder, this disciple does indeed need to cultivate force. I only need three force cultivation techniques."

The elder gasped.

He needed a moment to recover.

Even though he was a Grandmaster, just one step away from Entering the Dao, He had never encountered a monstrous genius like Jiang Hao before.

How much qi and blood had Jiang Hao refined?

Of course, the elder at the Martial Arts Tower also knew this was Jiang Hao's privacy, and no one could pry into it.

"Here are the manuals for the three Divine Skills. Return them when you have finished studying them. Be careful not to damage them."

"Yes, Elder."

Jiang Hao took the three Divine Skill manuals and kept them close.

"Elder, I have a unique tiger pet with the bloodline of a tiger demon. I wonder if the Martial Arts Tower has any techniques suitable for a tiger pet to cultivate?"

Jiang Hao directly asked the elder.

"Of course, there are. Go to the second floor and find the section for exotic techniques. You can take your time choosing. However, exotic techniques are not for your own cultivation, so you will need to use contribution points if you wish to select them."

"Contribution points? This disciple understands. Thank you, Elder."

Jiang Hao immediately headed towards the second floor.

As for contribution points, Jiang Hao didn't care.

He had been directly promoted to Inner Disciple, and the Huangtian Sect had already given him a large sum of contribution points to ensure his daily martial arts practice needs.

It wasn't a big deal to use some contribution points to exchange for a cultivation technique for Big Tiger.

Watching Jiang Hao's retreating figure, the Elder of the Martial Arts Building sighed and said, "The three major Divine Skills of Manifest Force, very few people can cultivate them simultaneously, and the requirements for Bone Root are very high."

"Moreover, Jiang Hao has already passed the Desolate Heaven Tower, so he must have practiced force before. Now he still wants to practice the three major Divine Skills, so how many forces can he actually cultivate?"

"Six? Eight? Or even... ten?"

"Amazing... I just don't know how long it will take Jiang Hao to master the three Divine Skills?"

The Elder of the Martial Arts Building was also a little curious, but he also knew that the three major Divine Skills would definitely take a long time.

He would wait and see; the answer would be revealed in a few years.
