Ling Tian Dives into the Abyss, Fengyun Sect Partnership

"An Earth-Tier Upper Grade cultivation technique?"

Mo Lingyuan raised an eyebrow, hardly able to believe it.

Earth-Tier Upper Grade cultivation techniques were extraordinarily powerful.

At their peak, they could amplify the force or pressure of a cultivator's Cultivation Arts a hundredfold and increase the speed of cultivating Cultivation Arts thirtyfold!

In Search Province, there were no Earth-Tier Upper Grade cultivation techniques—there weren't even any Mystic-Tier ones!

Even he, the ancestor of Search Province's First Sect, used only a Yellow-Tier Upper Grade cultivation technique.

"Exactly!"

Li Moqing answered as though it were nothing out of the ordinary.

"Thank you, Sect Master!"

Overcome with excitement, Mo Lingyuan hurriedly thanked him.

"The Scripture Repository is east of the Sect square. Elder Mo, you may go choose your Cultivation Art now."

"Yes, Sect Master!"

Mo Lingyuan could not wait. He turned into a streak of light and flew out of the Discussion Hall.

Watching Mo Lingyuan leave, Li Moqing turned to Lü Liu. "Lü Liu, have you recovered?"

"Thank you for your concern, Sect Master. Lü Liu is fine now!"

Lü Liu answered, flattered by his attention.

"Good. Memorize the Divine Breath Pure Heart Scripture behind me."

Li Moqing gave her the instruction.

A Sect's Cultivation Method was the foundation of cultivation. Naturally, everyone should learn it.

"Yes, Sect Master!"

Lü Liu stepped up to the Divine Breath Pure Heart Scripture and read it word by word, committing it to memory.

"Sect Master, I've memorized it!"

A quarter of an hour later, Lü Liu reported earnestly.

"Good. From now on, you'll cultivate in the Sect."

"As a menial disciple, you'll earn points by completing your daily chores. You can exchange those points for Sect resources."

Li Moqing smiled faintly as he spoke.

"Yes, Sect Master!"

Lü Liu answered solemnly.

"Xingfeng, Muxue, from now on, each of you may collect five Sourceheart Tea leaves from me every month."

After settling Lü Liu's arrangements, Li Moqing addressed Zhang Xingfeng and Dongfang Muxue.

"Thank you, Master!"

"Yes, Master!"

Zhang Xingfeng and Dongfang Muxue thanked him delightedly.

Lü Liu looked on with envy, but as a mortal who could now cultivate, she was already content.

Besides, she could earn points and exchange them for cultivation resources in the future.

I must do my daily chores well and earn as many points as I can!

She made the promise to herself in her heart.

The Scripture Repository.

"This... there are so many cultivation techniques?"

Mo Lingyuan stared at the Scripture Repository, so packed with books they could have filled an ox cart to bursting, and let out a cry of amazement.

"Every technique in these rows is Earth-Tier Upper Grade? Unbelievable!"

"The Sect's strength is far beyond anything I imagined..."

Mo Lingyuan stood dumbstruck, unable to stop marveling.

"Never mind. Choosing a Cultivation Art comes first!"

Muttering to himself, Mo Lingyuan began carefully searching for his Cultivation Art.

"Hmm... Lingtian Qiuyuan? This Cultivation Art suits my Source Aspect Abyss Sea. This is the one!"

A quarter of an hour later, Mo Lingyuan pulled out a Cultivation Art manual and smiled in satisfaction.

"With this Cultivation Art, I'll have the power to kill even an opponent at the sixth, perhaps even the seventh, level of the Nascent Soul Realm!"

He put away Lingtian Qiuyuan, his eyes brimming with confidence.

The Sect Discussion Hall.

"Sect Master, I've chosen my Cultivation Art."

Mo Lingyuan returned to the Discussion Hall and reported to Li Moqing.

"Good."

Li Moqing nodded and instructed him, "Elder Mo, make a trip to the Cloud Offering Sect on Lone Cloud Peak, seventy li away. Tell its sect master, Lin Shanghai, that I wish to work with his sect."

"As for the details of the arrangement, here is what I have in mind..."

"Yes, Sect Master!"

Mo Lingyuan stepped onto the Purple-Gold Gourd and shot away in a streak of light.

"Xingfeng, contact your father and tell him what I just said as well."

Li Moqing turned and gave Zhang Xingfeng the instruction.

"All right, Master!"

Zhang Xingfeng immediately took out a Communication Talisman and conveyed Li Moqing's message to Zhang Qingping.

Several breaths later.

Lone Cloud Peak.

The Cloud Offering Sect.

Outside the sect.

The fellow disciples Qin Tingjian and Huang Yanyu were still guarding the entrance.

Whoosh!

Riding the Purple-Gold Gourd, Mo Lingyuan appeared before them.

"Hm? May I ask who you are, Senior?"

Qin Tingjian looked at Mo Lingyuan and asked respectfully.

He could not see through Mo Lingyuan's cultivation, so he naturally did not dare act rashly.

Why have so many powerful people been turning up near the sect lately? Things are getting stranger and stranger!

Qin Tingjian could not help muttering to himself.

"I am Mo Lingyuan."

Mo Lingyuan answered calmly.

"Mo... Mo Lingyuan?!"

Qin Tingjian and Huang Yanyu cried out, nearly falling to the ground.

"Senior Mo, what brings you to our sect?"

Qin Tingjian hurriedly asked.

Even the foremost expert in Search Province has appeared near the Sect. Things really are getting stranger and stranger!

The thought rose in his mind again.

"I have a matter to discuss with Sect Master Lin. Go and announce my arrival."

Mo Lingyuan put away the Purple-Gold Gourd as he answered.

"Yes, Senior Mo. Please wait here a moment. I'll inform the sect master at once!"

Not daring to delay, Qin Tingjian rushed into the Sect.

How strange. Senior Mo is the sect master of the Azure Feather Sect, which has nothing to do with ours. Why would he come all this way to speak with our sect master?

Could the Azure Feather Sect have taken an interest in ours and want to make us a subordinate sect?

Wouldn't our sect soar on the wind and step straight into the clouds?

On his way back to the Sect, Qin Tingjian spun one guess after another, growing happier with each one.

Lin Shanghai had only just returned to the Sect and had not yet had time to tell Qin Tingjian and the others about his encounter with Mo Lingyuan.

Naturally, Qin Tingjian had no idea that Mo Lingyuan had already joined the Heavenly Mist Sect and become one of its elders!

Before long.

The Cloud Offering Sect.

Outside the Sect.

Lin Shanghai hurried over with Qin Tingjian.

A crowd of curious members of the Cloud Offering Sect followed behind him.

"Senior Mo, what important matter do you wish to discuss?"

Lin Shanghai asked respectfully.

"Let's go inside first."

Mo Lingyuan answered with a smile.

"Yes, Senior!" Lin Shanghai bowed slightly. "Please, come in!"

"Please come in, Senior!"

The other members of the Cloud Offering Sect also invited him in courteously.

"Lead the way."

Mo Lingyuan went with them.

The Cloud Offering Sect.

Inside the Sect.

The Sect's Reception Hall.

Only Lin Shanghai and Mo Lingyuan were in the Reception Hall. Lin Shanghai had arranged for everyone else to wait outside.

"Senior Mo, please have some tea."

With a broad smile, Lin Shanghai offered him a cup of tea and asked again, "Senior, what important matter do you wish to discuss?"

"Our sect would like to work with yours to sell Communication Talismans."

Mo Lingyuan took a sip of tea before answering.

"Work together to sell Communication Talismans?"

Lin Shanghai was somewhat puzzled.

Of course, he knew that by "our sect," Mo Lingyuan meant the Heavenly Mist Sect, not the Azure Feather Sect.

But if the Heavenly Mist Sect wanted to sell Communication Talismans, it had more than enough strength to do so itself. There was no need to work with a small sect like his.

"Yes." Mo Lingyuan nodded. "Our sect will make the Communication Talismans, then sell them in Clearwind Town under your sect's name."

"Oh? How exactly would that work?"

Lin Shanghai raised an eyebrow.

"Simple. Every three days, your sect will send someone to collect the Communication Talismans from ours, then hand them over to the Zhang Household to sell."

"Of the Gold Yuan earned from the sales, your sect will receive ten percent, and the Zhang Household will receive ten percent."

Mo Lingyuan answered without a ripple of emotion.
