Following the end of his lecture, Xuan Hao was completely unaware of the shock he had ended up causing to both the disciples and elders of the sect. Instead, the thing Xuan Hao was focused on was what reward he should choose after finishing his lecture.
So… A random Qi Technique again, or maybe I should try something different this time around…?
As he had already chosen to get Qi Techniques three times in a row from the system, Xuan Hao could not help feeling curious about the other rewards. Especially the specialized cultivation mantra that the was among the rewards he could choose from.
From what he understood, a specialized cultivation mantra should be something that solely focused on one element, similar to Qing Yi’s Heaven Burning Mantra that was solely focused on the Dao of Fire and would help Qing Yi condense a fire domain in the future when she broke through to the Domain Lord Realm.
“Chu Yang, what do you think our sect is currently lacking? Qi Techniques or a wider array of cultivation mantras?” Not knowing what to choose, Xuan Hao decided to ask Chu Yang walking beside him.
Given that Chu Yang was more active when it came to talking with other disciples inside the sect, he should have some idea about what the sect disciples would gain the most benefit of.
“What the sect is lacking? The sect is not really lacking any Qi Techniques if you are talking about the disciples below the Core Formation Realm… If I had to say anything, we have quite a small number of cultivation mantras at the Earth Rank and above. Not to mention, most of those techniques are sword based.
Although this is fine as the sect’s fundamental cultivation mantra is rather easy to learn, there are still some born with talents in certain elements that can’t progress through this path and will have to choose an inferior cultivation mantra because the sect doesn’t have any at the Earth Rank that fits them…” Finishing his long answer, Chu Yang turned his attention towards his master.
“…”
Even from a glance, Xuan Hao could tell that he was curious about why he had suddenly asked him such a question.
“I was asking because, I wanted to gather some new qi techniques and mantras for the sect in the near future and was wondering which of the two was more urgent. From what you say, it seems like I will have to focus on getting my first-hand more cultivation mantras first!”
“I see! It will indeed be great if we can get some more cultivation mantras in the future! I’m sure the disciples stuck practicing a cultivation mantra not fitting for them will be happy if they find out master is planning to gather some of the cultivation mantras that the sect is lacking!” Nodding his head in understanding after hearing what his master said, Chu Yang could not help feeling excited thinking about a few friends he had made in the sect that were lacking a proper cultivation mantra to practice.
“Yeah… I’m sure they will. Let’s get back to the pavilion for now.” Feeling the all too familiar notification coming from the system after Chu Yang had finished speaking, Xuan Hao understood that his short conversation had ended up triggering a brand-new quest.
Whoosh~
For this reason, Xuan Hao used his domain and quickly flew both of them back to the pavilion instead of walking back.
Now that he had gotten a new quest from the system, he really wanted to find out what it was.
…
Returning back to his own room inside the pavilion, Xuan Hao did not immediately choose a reward for the repeatable quest and instead pulled up the system interface to check out the new quest he had gotten after his conversation with Chu Yang.
[Sect Quest: Gather Unique Cultivation Mantras for the Sect.]
[Description: The sect is lacking when it comes to the different cultivation mantras available for the disciples. Gather 10 unique cultivation mantras. Not one can be the same and all of them have to at least reach the Earth Rank.]Điscover n𝒆w chapt𝒆rs 𝒐n n0𝒗e(l)bi𝒏(.)com
[Unique Cultivation Mantras: 0/10]
[Reward: Enter a State of Enlightenment for one hour.]
Although the quest in itself was not that easy to complete, it had no time limit, and he should be able to complete it using the repeatable sect quest. Even if it would take him some time, he should be able to complete in a few years.
The only confusing thing about the sect quest, was the reward…
Enter a state of enlightenment…? Xuan Hao had no idea what this meant!
The only thing he could think of was the source crystal he had consumed when breaking through to the Domain Lord Realm… Could it be that the state of enlightenment was similar to when one consumed a source crystal?
If that was really the case, it might be able to help him figure out a way to merge his ice and sword domain together!
Thinking this far, Xuan Hao could not help feeling excited as he wanted to complete the sect quest immediately and enter a state of enlightenment to figure out how he could merge his two domains together and have a clear path to the Soul Ascension Realm!
However, he also understood that something like that was impossible, as he had no idea where to get so many new and unique cultivation mantras for the Flying Sword Sect outside of the repeatable sect quest that could only be completed once every three months.
Robbing the cultivation mantras from the sects under the Flying Sword Sect was not really an option either, as there was a high chance that the Flying Sword Sect already had a cultivation mantra similar to it. Meaning that their cultivation mantras would not be unique be a new unique cultivation mantra.
If he wanted to rob cultivation mantras, he would most likely have to go outside the territory of what had once been the Heavenly Sky Kingdom or rob a stronger sect like the Seven Fates Sect…
However, given that the sect master of the Seven Fates Sect had reached the Domain Lord Realm according to Shu Yao, Xuan Hao did not really want to unnecessarily fall out with them for something he could simply wait a few months longer for.
After all, even if he managed to find a way to merge his ice and sword domain together, he would still have to first reach the Ninth Stage of the Domain Lord Realm before he would be able to attempt breaking through to the Soul Ascension Realm!
There is no hurry for now and I’m not even certain about what the reward really is in the first place! What if it isn’t like the source crystal and instead something completely different?
Shaking his head as this thought occurred to him, Xuan Hao did not bother thinking about a way to complete the new sect quest quicker and instead decided to just take things slowly and complete it with the help of his repeatable sect quest.
[Chosen reward: Specialized Cultivation Mantra?]
[Y/N]
Yes!
Swish~
[Unique Cultivation Mantras: 1/10]
Choosing the specialized cultivation mantra as a reward for the repeatable quest, Xuan Hao watched a small book materialize in the air in front of him, while the sect quest for gathering unique cultivation mantras went up from 0 to 1.
Even though it was still a long way from being completed, Xuan Hao felt happy knowing that his guess was indeed correct, and the repeatable sect quest could help him complete this brand-new sect quest.
“Hm… I wonder what kind of cultivation mantra this is…” Turning his attention away from the system, Xuan Hao curious looked down at the small book that had manifested in front of him.
“Dark Shadow Demon Mantra… Why does this feel like a demonic cultivation mantra…?” Reading the name of the cultivation mantra, Xuan Hao could not help frowning as he muttered this to himself.
Dark Shadow Demon Mantra, this sounded exactly like a demonic cultivation mantra no matter how he looked at it!
Whoosh~
Grabbing hold of the cultivation mantra still floating in front of him with the help of his domain, Xuan Hao quickly looked through it.
Reading through the Dark Shadow Demon Mantra over the next few minutes, Xuan Hao could not help putting down the cultivation mantra with a shocked expression on his face.
“Dark Shadow Demon Mantra… Dark Shadow Demon Mantra… To think this is actually not a demonic cultivation mantra, but instead a cultivation mantra focused on cultivating a rare form of spiritual qi that only appears during the night…”
Indeed, the Dark Shadow Demon Mantra was not a demonic cultivation mantra like he had expected but was instead a cultivation mantra specialized in cultivating a special qi that only formed during the night!
Not to mention this… It also required the user to have a special physique called the Dark Shadow Demon Physique!
The system was indeed not wrong that this was a unique cultivation mantra!
To be honest, Xuan Hao wondered if anyone in the Flying Sword Sect could even practice such a unique cultivation mantra in the first place…
