Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World

Chapter 1353 - 625: Gathering of Ancient Cultivators, the Unfathomable Sect Leader (Part 2)

"May I ask which sect or school you belong to, fellow Daoist?"Tang Zirui naturally didn’t foolishly reveal his background and instead said he was a loose cultivator without any sect.

"Haha, what a coincidence, we ancient cultivators are basically all loose cultivators."

"It seems that the cultivators of those renowned sects mostly perished in the calamity."

The green-robed Daoist laughed heartily, his expression unchanged, as if he had anticipated Tang Zirui’s response.

After all, it’s not just Tang Zirui.

Every ancient cultivator attending the gathering claims to be a loose cultivator, without sect or school.

But is such a thing really possible?

Because even in the Ancient Era, Life Source Stones were not readily obtainable.

They were monopolized by some super forces, and ordinary forces and loose cultivators had no right to obtain them.

So those ancient cultivators who managed to obtain Life Source Stones and survive till today, whether through extraordinary opportunities or origins, were all remarkable figures.

However, these ancient cultivators are extremely cunning, deeply scheming, and naturally unwilling to expose their backgrounds.

But this wasn’t a big deal for Tang Zirui.

He merely wanted to gather information.

However, after a glance around, he felt quite disappointed as none of the ancient cultivators present were acquaintances.

It could only be said that those he once knew might have long perished, unable to survive till today.

Not long after, after rounds of drinks, everyone began to familiarize themselves.

Tang Zirui casually chatted with other fellow Daoists.

"Fellow Daoists, I have just recently awakened."

"I am not very familiar with the current era."

"Although I somewhat blindly joined the Primordial Talisman Sect, I really don’t know what’s so remarkable about it."

"How could it attract so many fellow Daoists to join? What’s the reason?"

Tang Zirui curiously inquired.

He felt that these ancient cultivators definitely knew more than he did.

From these fellow Daoists, he could surely glean more information.

"Fellow Daoist Tang, don’t underestimate the sects of this era."

"Although restricted by the Heavenly Dao, the strongest cultivators of this era are merely at the Void Refining stage, seemingly similar to us."

"But the Sect Leader of the Primordial Talisman Sect is unfathomable, definitely a Great Power."

"The leader has acquired many ancient sect traditions, integrating them, and their cultivation level has reached unfathomable depths. Even in the Ancient Era, such a figure could easily become an Immortal."

"Joining the Primordial Talisman Sect is a fortunate event for us, not a disgrace."

A white-robed Daoist said solemnly, his expression showing immense admiration for the Sect Leader of the Primordial Talisman Sect.

Other ancient cultivators nodded in strong agreement.

"Becoming an Immortal easily?"

"Is this true or false?"

Upon hearing this, Tang Zirui was greatly shocked, for even in the Ancient Era, cultivators who could become Immortals were exceedingly rare, counted on one hand.

Even the favored ones might consider reaching the Integration stage an achievement.

Even geniuses, when promoted to Mahayana, would find their limit.

To truly become an Immortal, one must endure many hardships to succeed thoroughly.

Throughout the Primordial Talisman Sect’s history, those predecessors who actually ascended to the Immortal Realm were exceptionally rare.

Even though being the Sect Leader’s son with top-tier cultivation qualifications, he wouldn’t dare claim assured ascent.

"Of course it’s true."

"You’ve entered the city constructed by the Primordial Talisman Sect, haven’t you?"

"Have you noticed the numerous Immortal Realm Spirit Talismans within those cities?"

"All these Immortal Realm Spirit Talismans are refined by them."

"To be honest, I suspect that the mysterious Sect Leader has entirely mastered all Thirty-Three Celestial Spirit Talismans."

The black-robed Daoist said, his expression extremely serious.

"Impossible, the cultivation difficulty of the Thirty-Three Celestial Spirit Talismans is tremendously high."

"Even with the Sect Leader of the Primordial Talisman Sect’s formidable cultivation, it’s estimated to be merely at Refining Void Perfection."

"How could he master all Thirty-Three Celestial Spirit Talismans?"

"Being able to master several Immortal Realm Spirit Talismans would be a prodigy; you guys are just exaggerating."

Tang Zirui immediately shook his head, feeling these fellows exaggerated.

No one understood better than him the tremendous difficulty of mastering the Thirty-Three Celestial Spirit Talismans.

Even in the Ancient Era when geniuses flourished, the strongest achievement was mastering a few Immortal Realm Spirit Talismans, wanting all Thirty-Three was purely wishful thinking.

He felt that with his qualifications, in the future to master even three to five would be the limit.

Wanting to comprehend more, likely even with an exhausted Lifespan it couldn’t be achieved.

"It seems Fellow Daoist Tang has some understanding of the Thirty-Three Celestial Spirit Talismans."

"But facts speak louder than words."

"As far as I know, the Primordial Talisman Sect in this era has mastered Immortal Realm Spirit Talismans that have completely surpassed the Ancient Era."

"If not for the era’s Heavenly Dao limitations, and the short establishment time of the Primordial Talisman Sect, the ancient Primordial Talisman Sect would be far inferior."

"Given time, it would certainly become the new Taixu Sect."

The green-robed Daoist said quietly.

The new Taixu Sect?!

Upon hearing this, Tang Zirui’s heart was greatly shaken, finding it incredible, for this was high praise indeed.

The former Taixu Sect was a true hegemon, overpowering the Human Race sects in the Void Realm, causing even numerous True Spirits to bow, an absolute super hegemon.

The ancient Primordial Talisman Sect was merely a vassal sect to them.

In terms of power compared to Taixu Sect, they were incomparably far behind, like stars compared to the sun.

But because Taixu Sect was too strong, they were also the first target, suffering the most terrifying assaults.

This led to all cultivators of Taixu Sect perishing without exception.

But even so, Taixu Sect’s prestige was enough to intimidate all worlds of the mortal realm.

If the Primordial Talisman Sect of this era could grow to that extent, the terror of the era’s Primordial Talisman Sect would be extraordinary.

Moreover, he knew each ancient cultivator was incredibly keen.

Surviving the great calamity of the Ancient Era to the current era, none were fools.

And they all harbor the same thoughts, proving how exceptional the era’s Primordial Talisman Sect is.

What events have transpired to cause these ancient cultivators to think this way?

"It’s normal for Fellow Daoist Tang to harbor doubts about the Sect Leader, having never seen him."

"Unfortunately, the Sect Leader is currently in seclusion, temporarily unable to meet Daoists."

"But that’s no problem, we’re all in the sect, and will meet sooner or later."

"By then, Fellow Daoist Tang will know our words are true."

The black-robed Daoist smiled slightly.

He instantly deduced Tang Zirui’s innermost thoughts, which was natural.

He himself had thought the same.

But after several blows, he began to deeply admire the Sect Leader.

The Sect Leader definitely possessed unimaginable talent.

"Could the Sect Leader already be at Integration?"

Tang Zirui couldn’t help but ask.

After all, mastering the Thirty-Three Celestial Spirit Talismans couldn’t solely rely on Refining Void.

At least one had to reach Integration or Mahayana to have the chance.

The problem is, with the Void Realm’s Heavenly Dao limitations, how did he break through Refining Void?

"Unclear, but the Sect Leader’s strength is unmatched by Void Refining cultivators."

"Actually, we suspect the Sect Leader is already at Integration, but have no proof."

"It’s no matter."

"Regardless of whether the Sect Leader is Void Refining or Integration, they are the strongest cultivator in the Void Realm."

"So, don’t offend the Sect Leader; no one could save you."

Someone advised.

"Of course, I’m no fool."

Tang Zirui said irritably.

He’s not a fool; why would he offend someone without reason?

Yet now he’s intensely curious about the Primordial Talisman Sect’s Sect Leader and wishes to meet them personally.

Unfortunately, the timing isn’t right, so he can only continue to wait.

Anyway, he has plenty of time now.

As long as he stays in the Primordial Talisman Sect, he’ll meet them eventually.
