There was no Heterodox Method on the third floor of the Scripture Pavilion like Senior Brother Hou Ping had mentioned.

It was not that things like Heterodox Methods did not exist, or that Hou Ping had been making things up.

Rather, it was because of the special nature of Heterodox Methods.

They fundamentally could not be stored within the Immortal Sect's Scripture Pavilion.

After browsing through many jade slips on the third floor of the Scripture Pavilion, Shen Changchuan came to understand one thing: Heterodox Methods were bound to the cultivation methods at their source!

For example, the third-tier spell Lin Wushuang had used back during the grand competition was, in a certain sense, actually a kind of heterodox spell.

The reason he had been able to cast it essentially relied on the power of the bloodline within Lin Wushuang.

It was precisely because the cultivation method and spells he practiced were all suited to that trace of an ancient great demon's bloodline inside Lin Wushuang that he had been able to use Spell Techniques of the third-tier level while in the Out of Body Realm.

If such Spell Techniques were placed in the hands of someone who did not possess that trace of an ancient great demon's bloodline, perhaps they could still forcefully activate them to some extent, but their power would also be greatly reduced because of it!

This was the essence of why Heterodox Methods were bound to their cultivation methods.

Another example was Gu techniques.

Gu Path methods comparable to third-tier spells basically also needed to be activated with Gu Path cultivation methods at the Spirit Wandering Realm level.

The same was true for heterodox paths such as the body-refining path, the talisman-cultivation path, and so on!

Compared with ordinary third-tier spells, which could be cultivated
