Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World Chapter 1069 - 519: Constantly Emerging Divinity Transformation, the Fully Developed Black Dragon Sea Region_2

With sufficient cultivation, no treasure in the world remains beyond reach.

Sadly, earlier generations of Zhao Family descendants were dazzled by mortal wealth and pleasures, blind to the true path, ignoring cultivation's vital role while fixated on endless plots and conspiracies.

He had assumed that hardly any of his descendants showed promise.

Yet now, it appears that after his departure, the Zhao Family faced a dire crisis, from which certain descendants rose renewed like phoenixes from the flames.

Should they overcome this trial, the Zhao Family could emerge even mightier.

At that point, advancing from a Divinity Transformation Clan to a Refining Void Clan would come as no shock.

"The Black Dragon Sea Region is probably unified by the Primordial Talisman Sect now."

Zhao Xuan asked.

"That’s right, it indeed has been unified."

"Virtually every major island is fully under the control of Primordial Talisman Sect cultivators."

"At the same time, these islands link together via void bridges built between them."

"Ever since the islands connected, distances feel both close and vast, enabling countless cultivators to trade effortlessly, with commerce booming several times more than in the past."

"Even more remarkable, areas once held by Demon Race cultivators in the seas now belong to the Primordial Talisman Sect."

"The Human Race territory in the Black Dragon Sea Region has expanded by several folds."

Zhao Xuecheng said admiringly.

Even during his grandfather Zhao Xuan's time, they merely stalemated the Demon Race.

Occasionally, they fell behind, suffering raids from Demon Race cultivators into Human Race lands.

But since the Primordial Talisman Sect arrived in this sea area, the situation flipped entirely.

Through overwhelming might dominating all sides, numerous Demon Race cultivators surrendered willingly.

These have turned into the sect’s spirit beasts.

Refusers ended up as sustenance for human cultivators.

As a result, the Black Dragon Sea Region enjoys unprecedented safety.

This boom has sparked a surge in cultivators emerging from the Black Dragon Sea Region.

Truly, it marks an unparalleled golden era for cultivation.

"No wonder the islands in the Black Dragon Sea Region thrive so vibrantly today."

Zhao Xuan mused in awe.

During his flight here, he detected numerous grand islands.

These hosted immense populations of cultivators.

Both in quantity and caliber, cultivators have multiplied vastly compared to former times.

"The surge of cultivators in the Black Dragon Sea Region stems mainly from exploiting undersea riches."

"Grandfather surely knows the deep sea conceals countless ore veins."

"Such as Spirit Stone veins and all sorts of resource deposits."

"After the Primordial Talisman Sect subdued the major Demon Races, those demons turned into miners."

"Daily, they dig up ores from the ocean depths."

"Through the years, the Primordial Talisman Sect amassed endless Spirit Stones and ores."

Zhao Xuecheng elaborated.

Clearly, the deep sea brims with vast resources.

This fact every cultivator recognizes.

Yet recognition differs from full exploitation; developing undersea treasures proved nearly impossible.

After all, mighty underwater Demon Races long dominated the depths.

For Humans to mine there meant battling seawater pressure plus assaults from hordes of underwater Demon Races, rendering development unfeasible.

However, once the Primordial Talisman Sect vanquished those underwater Demon Races, tapping undersea riches followed naturally.

Essentially, daily hauls from the seabed flood the Primordial Talisman Sect with cultivation resources.

Joining as a disciple unlocks boundless advantages.

This influx has fueled explosive growth in Black Dragon Sea Region cultivators.

"Conquering the underwater Demon Race?"

"Just how did the Primordial Talisman Sect pull that off?"

Zhao Xuan questioned, burning with curiosity.

Truth be told, he too had tried subduing the underwater Demon Race before.

The issue lay in killing them easily, but conquest proving excruciatingly hard.

For every underwater Demon Race possessed unbreakable will.

No matter the threats, cages, or deaths, submission eluded grasp.

He wondered what arts the Primordial Talisman Sect wielded to force these underwater Demon Races to yield.

"Rumors say the Primordial Talisman Sect Leader excels in beast taming arts."

"Likely inheriting Beast Taming secrets from the Ancient Era."

"Using this singular beast taming method, taming those underwater demon cultivators became effortless."

"Over a hundred Divinity Transformation level demon cultivators fell under the Sect Master’s taming."

"Now they serve as the sect’s Mountain Guardian Spirit Beasts."

"Sadly, without core disciple status, that method stays secret."

Zhao Xuecheng noted regretfully.

Though he joined the Primordial Talisman Sect, he ranks merely as an outer disciple currently.

Ascending to core status and penetrating the sect’s upper echelons remains distant.

Hence, such Primordial Talisman Sect mysteries elude him.

"Mastery in beast taming arts?"

"That explains why those underwater demon cultivators yielded as spirit beasts."

"Had the Zhao Family possessed such arts before, their power would have soared dramatically."

Zhao Xuan rubbed his chin thoughtfully.

He grasped well the tremendous gains beast taming arts offered any great force.

Raising a top cultivator demands immeasurable time and resources.

Subduing a top spirit beast skips that toil, gaining instant might.

Moreover, spirit beasts boast far longer lifespans than equivalent human cultivators.

A Divinity Transformation spirit beast endures five to six thousand years, while human ones manage three thousand; such is the racial divide.

Should distant sects or clans luck into a Divinity Transformation spirit beast, it guards them for millennia.

Frankly, he once sought such a Divinity Transformation spirit beast for Zhao Family protection.

Alas, finding one defies casual desire.

Even spotting it, taming proves no guarantee.

Yet the Primordial Talisman Sect accomplishes this feat, utterly astounding.

"Do you know the Primordial Talisman Sect’s origins?"

"A Refining Void sect like this surely didn’t arise in the Black Dragon Sea Region."

Zhao Xuan narrowed his eyes, eager to uncover the Primordial Talisman Sect’s roots.

"Oh, it hails from the Southern Continent, they say."

"There, it reigns supreme, having unified the whole land."

"Its branches span the Void Realm."

"From Western Continent to Black Dragon Sea Region and beyond, Primordial Talisman Sect domains abound."

"Thus, its domain spans immensely."

Zhao Xuecheng voiced deep reverence for the Primordial Talisman Sect.

The former Divinity Transformation Zhao Family amounted to a mere local force.

Though dominant in this sea, elsewhere it paled into insignificance.

Beholding the Primordial Talisman Sect’s vast reach humbled him like a frog in a well.

"Truly a mighty sect from afar."

"Crossing such vast expanses to claim the Black Dragon Sea Region."

"Likely they command an Ancient Teleportation Array."

"No other way to bridge such distances so readily."

"I wonder if I could borrow the Primordial Talisman Sect’s teleportation array for journeys elsewhere."

Zhao Xuan voiced with keen interest.

Though a Divinity Transformation cultivator, across two to three millennia, he lingered mostly in this sea realm.

Not from lack of wanderlust.

Rather, destinations lay too remote.

Reaching another continent by sea flight demands centuries or millennia.

Recall a Divinity Transformation cultivator’s three-thousand-year lifespan.

Time for such squandering lacks.

Crucially, departing sans the Divinity Transformation ancestor leaves the Zhao Family defenseless.

Thus, departure proved impossible.

Bound, he foraged only local cultivation resources.

Venturing afar might yield rarer treasures.
