While Jiang Fan secluded himself in cultivation, Chu Qiudao arrived at Secret Realm Number One within the Primordial Secret Realm, guided by the Nascent Soul-level Void Spirit Crow Ya Zhao Lin. The prominent spirit beast, serving as the sect's intelligence liaison, confirmed Chu's Northern Continent origins and celebrated the sect master's discovery of its location. Shocked upon learning he had instantly crossed to the Eastern Continent, Chu discovered the Primordial Talisman Sect's Gate of the Void enables such world-traversing feats.

No surprise that he had never laid eyes on this enigmatic Void Refining Cultivator before, with other True Spirit Clans' cultivators equally clueless. He originated from a different continent altogether.

That explained why familiarity was absent.

He never imagined securing such an immense fortune in this existence.

To be spotted by a figure of such stature and accepted as their disciple no less.

Was this the fabled twist of destiny?

Recalling the string of misfortunes from his past lives, tears welled up involuntarily in his eyes.

"Mr. Ya, I wonder, what does our sect look like?"

Chu Qiudao inquired with keen interest.

His fascination with the Primordial Talisman Sect grew by the moment, eager to grasp its true might.

"At present, our sect’s reach extends over the Western Continent, Eastern Continent, Southern Continent, and the Black Dragon Sea Region."

"The Northern Continent remains the only one untouched for now."

"Yet, with the Lord Sect Master having pinpointed the exact spatial coordinates of the Northern Continent..."

"It’s inevitable that our sect’s influence will soon envelop it too."

Ya Zhao Lin succinctly outlined the Primordial Talisman Sect’s current territorial span.

Without question, the Primordial Talisman Sect had risen to formidable heights.

Though its founding was recent and it stayed relatively youthful, its growth surged with unstoppable vigor.

Apart from the younger members yet to mature fully, it boasted no shortages in elite battle forces.

"They’ve already covered four massive continents?!"

Chu Qiudao stood in complete awe upon hearing this.

Prior guesses about the Primordial Talisman Sect’s strength hadn’t prepared him for its vast dominion across four super continents.

Little wonder his master dismissed the Nine Great True Spirit Clans entirely.

To the Primordial Talisman Sect, those True Spirit Clans amounted to mere trifles.

Now he truly grasped the colossal backing he had secured.

"Very well, let’s proceed to the sect’s Scripture Pavilion first."

"Being a named disciple of the Sect Master grants you privileges far beyond regular disciples."

"Feel free to select a cultivation technique that fits you perfectly."

With a casual flick of his hand, Ya Zhao Lin acted.

In a flash, a swoosh echoed as he transported Chu Qiudao straight to the Primordial Talisman Sect’s Scripture Pavilion.

Divinity Transformation Spirit Beasts stood guard over this sanctuary.

Any rash intruder among ordinary cultivators would perish without mercy.

Stepping inside the Scripture Pavilion, Chu Qiudao’s eyes widened at the dazzling array of cultivation techniques on display.

Secret manuals covering alchemy, arrays, artifact refining, and talismans—the four cornerstone arts of cultivation—filled the space.

The sheer volume of cultivation techniques left him breathless.

Words failed him; the opulence was beyond measure.

In the Northern Continent, the Nine Great True Spirit Clans hoarded all cultivation techniques.

Common cultivators resorted to servitude just to access any practice methods.

Even securing one came loaded with chains of limitations.

Advanced ones stayed forever out of reach.

Yet through Ten Thousand Lives Reincarnation, he cultivated across endless lifetimes.

Each incarnation yielded techniques from diverse clans.

Over vast epochs, he pieced together fixes for countless gaps.

Still, against the Primordial Talisman Sect’s Scripture Pavilion, his personal arsenal seemed utterly paltry.

Chu Qiudao reined in his surging thrill and questioned, "Mr. Ya, which cultivation technique ranks as the sect’s finest?"

His aspirations soared high.

With this golden chance in his current life, surrender was unthinkable.

Missing it might mean eons of delay.

The next rebirth might lack such a flawless legacy.

Uncertain why the elusive Void Refining cultivator chose him or their motives, it held no sway over him.

None of that concerned him.

As long as complete inheritance techniques fell into his hands this lifetime, death would still mark monumental victory.

Thus, he harbored no doubts and demanded the supreme cultivation technique.

"Top-tier cultivation techniques abound, each paving the path to Immortality."

"Take the Mixed Element Talisman Scripture cultivated by the Lord Sect Master, or the Taixu Sword Scripture from the ancient Taixu Sect."

"The Ziwei Scripture of the ancient Ziwei Sect, the Ten Thousand Beasts Scripture from the ancient Ten Thousand Beasts Sect."

"The Nine Heavens Demon-Vanquishing Scripture of the ancient Demon-Vanquishing Sect, the Seven Apertures Linglong Scripture from the ancient Linglong Sect, and the Six Paths Reincarnation Scripture of the ancient Reincarnation Sect, among others."

"Every one harbors infinite cosmic secrets and strikes at the Dao’s core."

Ya Zhao Lin elaborated with patience.

"Am I allowed to cultivate all these techniques?"

Chu Qiudao’s eyes bulged in sheer astonishment.

His past acquisitions topped out at Divinity Transformation at best.

Void Refining and beyond remained absent.

Yet this sect offered myriad Supreme Techniques straight to Immortality; the revelation staggered him.

"Certainly you can cultivate them, though only one at a time."

"Truth be told, not only you—every disciple gets to pick from these for their path."

Ya Zhao Lin affirmed.

"Every single disciple in the Primordial Talisman Sect accesses these techniques?"

Stunned silence gripped Chu Qiudao instantly.

In the Northern Continent, no faction loosened grip on such treasures.

Strictly reserved for pure blood descendants.

For outsiders, dreams alone.

Terror of rivals seizing them and toppling dominance kept them sealed.

Yet astonishingly, the Primordial Talisman Sect flung open these supreme arts to all disciples.

Such lavish openness defied belief.

"Yes, all may cultivate them—this reflects the Lord Sect Master’s boundless generosity."

"Leakage never worries him; if one possesses the talent to grasp them, grasp away."

"Yet don’t think claiming these elite techniques guarantees mastery."

"Countless fresh disciples, lured by the fame, picked the Mixed Element Talisman Scripture, Taixu Sword Scripture, and similar peaks."

"Years of toil later, comprehension eluded them, basics untouched."

"Forced to abandon, they settled for lesser paths."

"Precious prime years squandered in vain."

"Lagging once, the gap yawns ever wider."

"Thus, picking a cultivation technique demands honest self-assessment, curbing reckless greed."

Ya Zhao Lin advised solemnly.

Years of futile struggle? Inability to comprehend?!

Chu Qiudao caught Mr. Ya’s drift immediately.

Peak techniques dazzled, yet barriers loomed tall.

The loftier the grade, the steeper the entry bar.

Often, even presented plainly, they baffled utterly, defying entry.

Such was the Cultivation Realm’s brutal truth.

Nevertheless, exhilaration coursed through him.

Having endured the Northern Continent’s technique stranglehold, none valued knowledge’s worth more keenly.

A powerhouse like the Primordial Talisman Sect, dispensing arts freely, stood matchless.

Even failure to master widened his vision immensely.

"So, have you decided on a technique to pursue?"

Ya Zhao Lin eyed Chu Qiudao with intrigue.

"Mr. Ya, the Six Paths Reincarnation Scripture from the Reincarnation Sect piques my interest. Tell me more about this cultivation technique?"

Chu Qiudao voiced his curiosity.

He’d skimmed countless immortality-bound supreme arts, yet few aligned truly.

Alone, the Six Paths Reincarnation Scripture stirred deep echoes within.

This might well forge his destined Lifebound Technique ahead.

"Sharp choice—this art stays obscure, rarely pursued in the sect."

"Mastery unleashes fathomless depths."

"Born from the ancient Reincarnation Sect, it reigns as a peerless soul cultivation method."

"Thresholds tower high, demanding innate soul potency for any hope."

"Ordinary folk can’t even scratch the surface."

"Success grants reincarnation prowess to its wielders."

Ya Zhao Lin detailed.

In truth, this legacy stemmed not from Jiang Fan, but Kunpeng Ming.

Kunpeng Ming bore heavy debts post-Profound Yellow Fruit acquisition.

It toiled to settle those myriad obligations.
