Duobao Daoren Was Tempted

Within Duobao Daoren's cave dwelling, quite a number of Jie Sect disciples had gathered.

Before these Jie Sect disciples lay many spiritual fruits and immortal pills.

Duobao Daoren then said, "The Dao I preached today was personally passed down by Master.

After returning to your own Cave Dwellings, you must study it diligently. So long as you comprehend even part of its principles, your cultivation will be able to improve once more.

These spiritual fruits and immortal pills are bestowed upon you to help you raise your cultivation as quickly as possible."

The disciples all wore grateful expressions. They rose and bowed to Duobao Daoren in thanks, then took the spiritual fruits and immortal pills and departed for their own Cave Dwellings.

In the end, only Pi Lu Xian, Chang Er Ding Guang Xian, Ling Ya Xian, Qiu Shou Xian, and Jin Guang Xian remained in Duobao Daoren's cave dwelling.

Seeing that there was no one else in the cave dwelling, Chang Er Ding Guang Xian spoke.

"Senior Brother Duo Bao, Master's favoritism toward Hong Ze has gone a little too far.

Not only did he make a mere Heavenly Immortal the Eldest Senior Brother of our Jie Sect, but he also bestowed an Innate Spiritual Treasure capable of increasing one's cultivation upon him.

If Senior Brother Duo Bao does not seize this opportunity while Master is absent and find a way to make Hong Ze leave the Jie Sect,

then in the future, there may no longer be a place for Senior Brother Duo Bao on Golden Turtle Island."

Pi Lu Xian added fuel to the fire. "Senior Brother Duo Bao, the position of Eldest Senior Brother of the Jie Sect should have been yours.

Who among the Jie Sect disciples does not know this? It is only a pity that Master pretends not to.

Today, Hong Ze crippled my cultivation. If his cultivation grows further in the future, I fear his next target will be you, Senior Brother Duo Bao.

Because only by trampling Senior Brother Duo Bao beneath his feet can Hong Ze rightfully become the Eldest Senior Brother of our Jie Sect."

Duobao Daoren's face had already darkened slightly, though he did not say anything.

Ling Ya Xian could already see that Duobao Daoren had developed the intention to compete with Hong Ze.

He immediately said to Duobao Daoren, "Senior Brother Duo Bao, now is a good opportunity to drive Hong Ze out of the Jie Sect.

As long as Senior Brother Duo Bao can surpass Hong Ze in teaching the disciples, I believe he will be too ashamed to remain in the Jie Sect.

I have already looked into it. Although Hong Ze's side appears powerful, their room for improvement is not great.

In contrast, while the cultivation levels of the Jie Sect disciples under Eldest Senior Brother vary greatly, they have plenty of room to improve.

Unfortunately, they have not received cultivation techniques passed down by Master, which is why their cultivation has advanced so slowly.

If Senior Brother Duo Bao can find a suitable cultivation technique for them, then within five hundred years, they will absolutely be able to advance by an entire major realm."

Jin Guang Xian immediately stepped forward as well. "Senior Brother Duo Bao, Ling Ya Xian is right.

After all, this competition is about teaching fellow disciples and seeing whose group can improve their cultivation faster.

Thus, what matters is naturally not whose cultivation is higher, but whose cultivation improves more quickly.

Senior Brother Duo Bao must not miss this excellent opportunity, or you may completely lose your chance to contend against Hong Ze."

Duobao Daoren nodded. "That may be true, but a cultivation technique suitable for everyone is not so easy to find."

Hearing Duobao Daoren say this, Pi Lu Xian could not help revealing a trace of delight.

"Senior Brother Duo Bao, please take a look at my current cultivation."

Duobao Daoren focused his gaze and could not help being greatly shocked.

Pi Lu Xian had already regained cultivation at the peak of the True Immortal realm.

"In just a few days, how did you go from the Heavenly Immortal realm back to the peak of the True Immortal realm?"

Pi Lu Xian did not answer Duobao Daoren. Instead, he began chanting under his breath, and the aura around him changed accordingly.

The Shangqing Immortal Light that had originally circulated around his body slowly dimmed, replaced by the circulation of another Dao technique.

Others might not recognize it, but Duobao Daoren was exceedingly familiar with it.

He immediately snorted coldly. "Bold Pi Lu Xian! I never expected you to secretly defect to the Western Sect."

The cultivation technique Pi Lu Xian used actually came from the Western Sect's Great Dream Sutra.

This technique did not place high demands on its practitioners. It could even be said that anyone could cultivate it.

Moreover, it was a technique that could absolutely produce rapid results, with a cultivation speed far exceeding the Shangqing Immortal Art.

Unfortunately, the Great Dream Sutra had a drawback. Upon reaching a certain realm, one needed to be cleansed with Eight Treasures Merit Pool Water, or one's cultivation would be unable to advance another inch.

However, not many knew of this drawback, while Duobao Daoren was one of those who did.

That was why Duobao Daoren's expression had changed so abruptly. He believed Pi Lu Xian must have secretly pledged allegiance to the Western Sect.

At this moment, Pi Lu Xian hurriedly said, "Senior Brother Duo Bao, please do not be angry.

The cultivation technique I practice is indeed the Western Sect's Great Dream Sutra, but that does not mean I have joined the Western Sect."

"If you have not joined the Western Sect, then how did you obtain the Great Dream Sutra? Did you happen to pick it up along the road?"

Pi Lu Xian shook his head. "Senior Brother Duo Bao, you do not know this, but in the Western lands, the Great Dream Sutra is no longer a technique withheld from outsiders.

To obtain the Great Dream Sutra, one only needs to make a casual trip to the Western lands, and it can be acquired with ease. Why would one need to join the Western Sect?"

After hearing this, Duobao Daoren furrowed his brow, but he did not question Pi Lu Xian again.

This allowed Chang Er Ding Guang Xian to see an opportunity, and he immediately said to Duobao Daoren,

"Senior Brother Duo Bao, Pi Lu Xian was able to restore his cultivation to the peak of the True Immortal realm in only a few days.

This proves that the Great Dream Sutra has the effect of allowing rapid advancement. Eldest Senior Brother must not miss this opportunity."

"If I have the Jie Sect disciples cultivate a Western Sect technique, what use would it be even if it raises their cultivation?

Once Master discovers it, everyone will likely be expelled from the Jie Sect, and even I will be punished by Master."

Pi Lu Xian smiled and said to Duobao Daoren, "Senior Brother Duo Bao, there is no need to worry.

The Great Dream Sutra differs from other cultivation techniques. All cultivation advancement takes place within dreams.

So long as the practitioner does not deliberately reveal it, even Master will not be able to discover any clues.

Otherwise, after I had cultivated the Great Dream Sutra for so long, Master would likely have discovered it long ago."

Duobao Daoren was finally reassured, though he was still somewhat indecisive.

"Even so, with so many people involved, word may inevitably leak out. By then, it will be too late for regrets."

Qiu Shou Xian directly said, "Senior Brother Duo Bao, why concern yourself with such a trivial matter?

Senior Brother Duo Bao need only give the Great Dream Sutra another name. Who would ever suspect that they were cultivating the Great Dream Sutra?"

This finally made Duobao Daoren resolve himself completely, and he nodded.

"Pi Lu Xian, immediately pass the Shangqing Dream Realm on to the disciples and have them study it carefully."
