Kongtong Mountain Cave

After teaching the three the Sun Moon United Heart Art, Hua Wushuang watched them leave the Skill Transmission Hall with satisfaction.

Recently, it had been quite difficult to find people for the trial cultivation, so being able to recruit three yesterday was truly fortunate.

He also got up and walked towards the Autumn Fragrance Garden, where Sect Leader Leng resided.

As soon as he arrived at the Autumn Fragrance Garden, he saw a rather imposing middle-aged man walking out of it with a frown.

When the man saw him, he said with a forced smile, "Senior Brother Hua!"

"Junior Brother Liu!" He held his head high, not looking him directly in the eye, and replied indifferently, "Junior Brother Liu isn't looking for Deputy Sect Leader Leng, but instead came here to Sect Leader Leng. Could it be that you've taken a wrong turn?"

This person was Liu Cheng, the Law Enforcement Elder of the Sun Moon Radiance Sect.

Liu Cheng looked at Hua Wushuang's demeanor and still said with that forced smile, "We are all working for the sect, where can't we go? However, Senior Brother Hua, what business do you have with Sect Leader Leng?"

"I am naturally doing things for the sect!" Hua Wushuang said indifferently.

The two exchanged glances, snorted coldly, and walked past each other.

Hua Wushuang entered the Autumn Fragrance Garden, walked along the winding path through the garden, passed the flowerbeds where a hundred flowers bloomed, and arrived in front of the main hall. He cupped his hands and said, "Hua Wushuang requests an audience with the Sect Leader!"

"Ah, Junior Brother Hua! Please come in!" An old voice came from inside.

Only then did Hua Wushuang push the door open and enter. He was already used to the room filled with rare treasures, coral, and clam shells.

He bowed and said, "Sect Leader, I taught three people today."

Leng Qingqiu looked quite old, with white hair, but his frame was large, and he sat with great presence. His complexion was slightly dark, and he wore a brocade robe with gold threads, with a white jade hairpin inserted in his hair.

At one end of the small hairpin, two people playing chess were carved. The carving was exquisite, a work of art, lifelike and vivid.

At this moment, his face did not look good. After seeing this, Hua Wushuang said, "Sect Leader, are you perhaps concerned about the recent decrease in trial cultivators? It's really..."

"I'm not blaming you!" Leng Qingqiu interrupted Hua Wushuang and said, "We have known each other for over ten years, and I trust your work. The matter of trial cultivators should ultimately be kept discreet. After all, we are prominent figures in Qiu Yang City. If the trial cultivators are not handled properly, it might cause some within the sect to collude with outsiders, leading to disunity within the sect, which would not be good!"

Most sects in the Jianghu actually treat new disciples as consumables or tools.

Some sects advocate this "wolf culture" of the strong preying on the weak, believing that only those who carve out a bloody path are the elites of the sect. As a result, after these elites grow up, they turn around and destroy the sect. The sect's inheritance is cut off, and the "wolf culture" is also cut off.

Therefore, slightly more discerning sects now advocate "the sect is one family, all who enter are brothers." No matter how dirty things are in reality, they must maintain a facade of brotherly affection and respect for elders on the surface. Only then can the sect's inheritance be greatly extended and the cost of managing the sect be reduced.

The Sun Moon Radiance Sect is also like this, having been passed down for two hundred years. Leng Qingqiu is the third generation.

Most of their sect relies on the city lord and powerful figures in Qiu Yang City. Others eat meat, they drink soup, and they live quite comfortably.

But precisely because they rely on others, Leng Qingqiu knows even more that their foundation is unstable and they need to unite the sect even more. Even if a little bit leaks out from their fingers, it is enough to keep the sect members well-fed and greatly loyal!

Using people for trial cultivation is ultimately not a righteous path and is not very moral. Everyone does it in secret. If they do it openly, it will attract the envy of others, and perhaps several major righteous sects will unite to act on behalf of heaven and uphold the righteous path.

Major righteous sects are different from Demonic Sects; righteous sects always need to find an excuse to devour people!

"It's a pity about the manor outside the city a few years ago!" Hua Wushuang said with regret.

That was a few years ago, when they established a manor in a remote place outside the city. They could gather and cultivate foundationless vagrants there, greatly accelerating the progress of deciphering the cultivation technique! However, in the end, everyone in that manor went mad, and some even escaped, causing a huge commotion. They had no choice but to abandon that manor.

"The secret techniques passed down from the Kongtong Mountain Cave are always difficult to decipher!" Leng Qingqiu said, "The former Great Cai Dynasty's collection of books and separate courtyard is truly令人神往啊!"

"It is said that those few sects are already preparing to bypass the mechanisms of the Kongtong Mountain Cave and enter the cave!" Hua Wushuang said.

"Heh... What if they enter? A single No Thought Divine Separation Art has taken us several years to decipher. What's the use of having more secret manuals if we can't understand them?" Leng Qingqiu said with a cold laugh.

A useful secret manual can defy heaven and change destiny with just one. A hundred useless secret manuals only take up space.

"The Sect Leader is right!" Hua Wushuang bowed and said.

He knew that there had never been a Sun Moon United Heart Art, only the No Thought Divine Separation Art that they had accidentally obtained from the Kongtong Mountain Market.

The Kongtong Mountain Cave was the former Great Cai Dynasty's martial arts library and separate courtyard. Because the environment and climate here were relatively special, being dry and well-ventilated, it was suitable for storing books, so the Great Cai Dynasty dug out mountain caves to store books.

The mountain cave was vast, divided into eight mountains and twelve caves. After the demise of the Great Cai Dynasty, the Kongtong Mountain Cave had been excavated for several hundred years, both officially and unofficially, and most of it had been dug out. However, these excavated areas were not the main caves.

The Kongtong Mountain Market was a small town not far from the Kongtong Mountain Cave. The specialty of the small town was naturally the martial arts secret manuals excavated from the Kongtong Mountain Cave.

The sale of martial arts secret manuals in the small town was quite particular, divided into two methods of sale: outright purchase and copy.

The so-called outright purchase is very simple, it is the purchase of the original, and the seller also guarantees that there is no copied version.

A copy is to copy the seller's martial arts secret manual yourself. What it turns out to be is your own business!

The prices of the two methods of sale are vastly different. But what their Sun Moon Radiance Sect does not lack is money! Several years ago, Leng Qingqiu and Hua Wushuang went to the Kongtong Mountain Market together. If they thought it was useful, they would buy it directly, regardless of whether it was an outright purchase or a copy. Anything that can be solved with money is not a problem!

After a period of research and experimentation, only the No Thought Divine Separation Art could possibly solve Leng Qingqiu's hidden danger!

The No Thought Divine Separation Art is a very special secret manual. It can neither strengthen the blood and qi nor make the "spirit" complete. Instead, it is an auxiliary cultivation technique that simply strengthens the spirit!

If a person's spirit is compared to a water cup, then visualization is to fill the water in the cup little by little until the "spirit" is complete. The No Thought Divine Separation Art is to make the water cup slowly bigger, while the water remains the same amount!

Although Leng Qingqiu was in the Circulatory Heaven realm, he was eager to break through in his early years and injured his visualized deity. As a result, although he became a Circulatory Heaven expert, he was the weakest in terms of combat power among Circulatory Heaven experts. Most people did not know this, but his younger brother, Leng Qianye, knew it clearly.

Leng Qianye had been watching covetously in the dark, just waiting for him to decline, so that he could defeat a Circulatory Heaven expert with his Qi Sea, build confidence, break through to Circulatory Heaven, and become a Circulatory Heaven expert!

The No Thought Divine Separation Art can just allow for multitasking and strengthen the spirit, making up for the deficiencies Leng Qingqiu left behind in his early cultivation.

The only problem is that this secret manual is too difficult to decipher!

The dishes on the menu are served!
