"Another possibility... the Immortal Refining method of the Immortal Feather Sect might already have been perfected!" Shen Mo mused inwardly as he repaired the damaged Dao Sword.
The Immortal Refining method of the Immortal Feather lower sect and that of the upper sect came from the same source—both originated with the Immortal Feather Patriarch. He was one of the immortals, possessed of profound foundations and a long lifespan, enough to study and improve the Immortal Refining method. If this method truly had holes everywhere and could not create an "immortal," then how could the Immortal Feather upper sect have been swept into that terrifying vortex involving the will of the universe and the remnants of old days, leading to the extermination of the entire sect, including the Immortal Feather Patriarch?
In other words, if lower-sect cultivators like Daoist Lingyu had followed this method step by step, adhering to convention, they might really have been able to forge a True Immortal Realm expert. It was only that, at the final juncture, an unforeseeable mishap had occurred—perhaps the True Immortal within the coffin had gone out of control, or they had encountered the tribulation of becoming immortal—causing the entire Immortal Refining plan to fall short at the last step!
If that was the case, then even if Shen Mo had mastered the entire Immortal Refining method, it would be of no use. He still could not alter the outcome of the Immortal Feather Realm's destruction.
"Unfortunately, the stretch of spacetime from when the Immortal Feather Sect was destroyed has been sealed, and the Immortal Feather Realm has completely fallen into the Gui Realm. Even Guan Ling cannot peer into the truth of what happened. Otherwise, I could formulate corresponding strategies based on different outcomes!"
Without crucial information, no scheme could be guaranteed
