Upon hearing Ling Yi's words, the six elders all turned their gazes to him once again.
"As all the elders know, this method of enhancing Spiritual Root through Martial Dao is extremely dangerous. Unless absolutely necessary, no one would be willing to try it, and even if they did, very few would succeed."
Everyone nodded in agreement.
To enhance Spiritual Root through Martial Dao, one must first reach the Martial Dao Genki Condensation Realm.
Only by reaching the Genki Condensation Realm can one condense Genki from Qi and Blood, and use this Genki to invigorate the meridians and Dantian.
When the Dantian is reshaped and the meridians are unblocked, Spiritual Vein can be generated naturally.
Similarly, by using the method of expanding Genki to enlarge the Dantian and meridians, one can conversely enhance Spiritual Root aptitude.
The Spiritual Root determines the strength of the meridians and Dantian, but the Spiritual Root is not the meridians and Dantian; they are merely interconnected.
It is precisely because of this connection that one can enhance one's Spiritual Root by strengthening the Dantian and meridians.
But this is just a theory, a theory that sounds reasonable, but it's something Ling Yi made up.
As for the specifics, whoever tries it will be pleasantly surprised.
If you're not careful, not only will you not improve, but your Spiritual Root could be destroyed.
That is precisely why none of these elders dared to try.
To put it bluntly, this method of inflating Genki is completely unreliable.
"If that's the case, why should we keep it a secret?" Ling Yi said with a smile.
Elder Xuanyun frowned and said, "You mean, we're just giving away this method of expanding Genki for free?"
Ling Yi shook his head and said, "There's no such thing as a free lunch. Besides, would they dare to accept something given away for free? And even if they did, would they dare to refine it? They'd probably just think we were holding back, and that what we gave them was just a shortened version of the technique."
"Elders can spread the word that there's a traitor within the sect who leaked this method of expanding Genki. No, that name isn't grand enough; let's just call it the Mysterious Mystic Heaven Meridian Opening Art."
After repeating the name " Mystic Heaven Meridian Opening Art " a few times, everyone suddenly felt that this technique was much more advanced.
"Have people spread rumors everywhere, making the Xuan Tian Kai Mai Jue ( Mystic Heaven Meridian Opening Art) sound as amazing as possible."
"Later, they announced to the public that the Mystic Heaven Sect was preparing to publicly reveal the Mystic Heaven Meridian Opening Art to benefit all living beings."
"Really going public?" Elder Xuanyun asked.
"Elder, do you think those sects would be willing to make the Mystic Heaven Meridian Opening Art public?"
Everyone shook their heads.
Monopoly is the only way to go. Only a fool would be willing to make this kind of cultivation method public to benefit all living beings? Don't be ridiculous.
"Therefore, we will then announce to the public that the Mystic Heaven Sect, under pressure from various sects, is preparing to hold the Mystic Heaven Tournament, and the winning sect will obtain the Mystic Heaven Meridian Opening Art."
"Wouldn't it be better for them to just rob it directly? Why go through all this trouble?" Elder Xuanbao asked, somewhat confused.
"Of course we'll fight for it, but only after the results of the arena match are in."
At this moment, Elder Xuanmiao understood Ling Yi's meaning and frowned, saying, "Even if the arena competition ends, as long as there are still people in our Mystic Heaven Sect who know about this technique, the crisis remains."
"So, after the arena competition ends, we can just find an excuse to completely reveal the Profound Mystic Heaven Meridian Opening Art, for example, by saying that the original version of the Mystic Heaven Meridian Opening Art was stolen."
"Then, secretly distribute several thousand, or even tens of thousands, of jade slips containing the Mystic Heaven Meridian Opening Art. The sect's crisis will naturally be resolved."
After pondering for a long time, everyone finally understood Ling Yi's meaning and couldn't help but look at Ling Yi with strange eyes.
Damn it, this whole thing is going to be really bad for those sects that are targeting the Mystic Heaven Sect. It could very well cause a bloody storm between cultivation sects.
Putting everything else aside, once the arena competition ends, whichever sect obtains the cultivation technique will become the target of everyone's ire.
Once they've finished arguing about it, they'll find that everyone already knows this technique. At that point, who would be so foolish as to want to be an enemy of the Mystic Heaven Sect?
Our Mystic Heaven Sect's cultivation techniques have been stolen. We are furious, but what can we do?
After this whole process, those sects that tried to seize the cultivation techniques will not only end up with nothing, but will also suffer heavy losses.
When Ling Yi returned to his cave, it was already the next morning.
Ling Yi's method has been given; the rest is up to the elders to arrange.
Seeing Fu Xiyao standing at the door waiting for him, Ling Yi suddenly had the illusion that his wife was waiting for her husband to return.
Seeing the stunningly beautiful Fu Xiyao, Ling Yi couldn't help but smile and said, "Let's go have some barbecue in the back mountain."
For the next two months, the Mystic Heaven Sect's plan to hold the Mystic Heaven Tournament caused a great stir throughout the entire Cultivation Realm.
The Mystic Heaven Meridian Opening Art, a mysterious skill that allows ordinary people to open their Spiritual Vein, has become increasingly exaggerated and fantastical over time.
There are three days left until the Mystic Heaven Tournament.
The Mystic Heaven Tournament Arena was held this time at the outer sect's Martial Pavilion.
It is divided into three main arenas: one for those below the Foundation Establishment Stage, one for those below the Golden Core Stage, and one for those below the Nascent Soul Stage.
The Champion of all three arenas will receive the Mystic Heaven Meridian Opening Art.
The reason for doing this is to give the major sects more opportunities, or rather, more room for maneuver.
However, what no one knew was that Ling Yi and Fu Xiyao had already left the Mystic Heaven Sect.
What remained at the Mystic Heaven Sect were only Ling Yi's two Clone: one Clone Hua Wei his own appearance, while the other Clone appeared as Fu Xiyao.
"Senior brother, is it really okay for us to leave like this?" Fu Xiyao asked with some concern.
Betrayal is a grave taboo for any sect.
"We have no choice but to leave. I'm afraid the Mystic Heaven Sect won't be able to withstand this wave."
"Didn't they set up the Mystic Heaven Tournament?"
"If the Profound Mystic Heaven Meridian Opening Art is real, then there's naturally no problem. But the key issue is that the Profound Mystic Heaven Meridian Opening Art is just a theory, and even if it's just a theory, the success rate is extremely low."
"Guess what those sects who obtained the cultivation technique would think if they eventually discovered that the Profound Mystic Heaven Meridian Opening Art they fought so hard for was nothing more than a useless technique?"
" The Mystic Heaven Sect Mystic Heaven Meridian Opening Art is fake, or incomplete." Fu Xiyao immediately realized the key point.
"That's right, so the Mystic Heaven Sect's days ahead will definitely not be easy. And as the only successful example of the Mystic Heaven Meridian Opening Art, do you think the Mystic Heaven Sect can protect us?"
In fact, there are many reasons why Ling Yi wanted to leave the Mystic Heaven Sect. In addition to what Ling Yi mentioned, there are two other reasons: first, Ling Yi did not want to expose his true strength.
If the Mystic Heaven Sect were to engage in a major battle with other sects, it would inevitably have to expose its strength in order to protect itself.
That could lead to even bigger problems.
On the other hand, Ling Yi wanted to see if he could encounter any other villains.
Ling Yi originally planned to follow the Protagonist Ye Tian for a while longer, but after so long, no second villain appeared who he could stick with, which puzzled Ling Yi.
How can a Protagonist have only one antagonist?
How can the Protagonist gain experience if there's only one villain?
Ling Yi guessed that either his Villain System meant each Protagonist could only be bound to one villain, or...
Or perhaps the second villain hasn't appeared yet.
The second one might have a more prestigious surname.
But Ling Yi didn't want to wait any longer; who knew when the second villain would appear?
Ling Yi decided to go out and explore, to see if there were any other Protagonist or villains in this world.
Ling Yi left behind more than one Clone. In addition to the two Clone that were on the surface, Ling Yi also had three Clone in the Mystic Heaven Sect to monitor the Protagonist Ye Tian.
Ling Yi would know whatever Ye Tian was doing.
If a suspected second villain appears, Ling Yi will immediately return and bind the second villain.
As Ling Yi had predicted, half a month later, the Mystic Heaven Sect was besieged by hundreds of mysterious experts.
Except for Elder Xuanmiao of the Mystic Heaven Sect died in battle.
Finally, the sect leader and the Supreme Elder of the Mystic Heaven Sect emerged from seclusion and repelled the invading enemy.
The Mystic Heaven Sect, already Genki, was attacked again by dozens of mysterious figures three days later. This time, the sect leader escaped with serious injuries, and the Supreme Elder died in battle.
The Mystic Heaven Sect, which had been passed down for thousands of years, was destroyed just like that.
As for the two Clone Ling Yi left in the cave, they had already "accidentally" died in the first battle.
Ling Yi's tool, Bai Feng, had already been taken away by the Bai Clan long ago.
The Bai Clan is an ancient cultivation family with a profound foundation and extensive connections. They had already received the news before the first battle of the sect began.
Meanwhile, the Protagonist Ye Fan took advantage of the chaos and gained many benefits. He and Ling Yi left the Mystic Heaven Sect almost one after the other.
They then headed southeast, their aim being to ambush Bai Feng along the way.
Bai Feng had absorbed a large amount of Spiritual Marrow Liquid. If Ye Fan could absorb Bai Feng, it would greatly enhance his foundation. Ye Fan was unwilling to let this opportunity pass him by.
Furthermore, Bai Feng knows Ye Fan's secret; no matter what, Bai Feng is destined to die.
The love-hate relationship between the Protagonist and the antagonist is something Ling Yi can't witness firsthand.
Who could have imagined that the initial spark of a major war between sects in the Immortal Cultivation Realm would be an outer disciple?
This made Ling Yi Duoduo somewhat guilty.
What could Ling Yi do? He himself hadn't expected things to develop to this extent.
The culprit was the Cloud Firmament Sect. If they hadn't spread rumors and inexplicably become a trending topic, none of the subsequent events would have happened.
That's right, that's exactly it. Anyway, Ling Yi will never admit to taking the blame.
After this incident, Ling Yi and Fu Xiyao gained a clearer understanding of the Strong Digestion Immortal Cultivation Realm.
In a restaurant in Yue City.
Ling Yi and Fu Xiyao were having dinner.
"The ancient cultivation family, the Lin Clan, is located in this Yue City. However, compared to other cultivation families, the Lin Clan is very low-key, and there are not many people who even know of the Lin Clan existence."
The title "encyclopedia of whereabouts" is well-deserved; Fu Xiyao is simply amazing.
"What should we do next?" Fu Xiyao asked.
"Rest well for a few days before making any plans." Ling Yi doesn't have any goals right now.
Ye Tian also doesn't know when the second villain will appear. Judging from Ye Fan's attitude, he will probably continue his love-hate relationship with Bai Feng for some time. It seems unlikely that the second villain will appear in the short term.
Fu Xiyao didn't care. She had no great ambitions and felt that her life with Ling Yi was good enough.
The two strolled around Yue City and learned a few things.
First, Yue City's youngest son, Lin Tian, suddenly fell into a coma a month ago while Hunting outside the city.
City Lord Lin Boyun issued a reward notice for one million Low-Grade Spirit Stone. Whoever can revive his son will receive this generous reward of one million Low-Grade Spirit Stone.
Secondly, Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion will hold an auction in three days.
It is said that a thousand-year-old spiritual herb, the Soul Tempering Fruit, will be among the items in this auction.
Ling Yi didn't know what the Soul Tempering Fruit was, but Fu Xiyao did.
According to Fu Xiyao, the Soul Tempering Fruit is a spiritual herb that can only survive in the depths of the Heaven-Burning Valley, by the Ice and Fire Pool, Place of Convergence.
It can temper one's soul power, making the Soul Transformation stronger, and it has a great effect on cultivators.
This Thousand-Year Soul Tempering Fruit can at least double the strength of Spirit Transformation Stage cultivator's Primordial Spirit.
The last thing is that a cave dwelling of a cultivator Tribulation Transcendence was suspected to have been discovered in the Heaven-Burning Valley.
However, it's impossible to tell whether it's true or false.
For some reason, when Ling Yi heard the name Lin Tian, he instinctively felt a sense of familiarity.
After learning some of Lin Tian's past experiences, the sense of familiarity grew even stronger.
He was a notorious playboy in the city, infamous and notorious. He was known for his crazy and foolish behavior, and was disliked by everyone.
"Is Lin Tian going to be another Protagonist?" Ling Yi thought to himself.
Whether it is or not, we'll find out by going to the city lord's mansion.
