134: The essence of the method of nourishing the mind is not to cultivate the mind.

Not long after, Zhang Yang arrived at the Heart Examination Chamber.

After entering and seeing Elder Xin, Zhang Yang recalled the information he had gathered about him.

Elder Xin, originally named Xin Buxiu, was a powerhouse at the Sixth Level Dao Severing Realm.

He was the branch master of the Nourishing Heart Lineage, one of the Four Great Factions of the Myriad Manifestations Pavilion!

Zhang Yang cupped his hands and said, "Greetings, Revered Master!"

Xin Buxiu looked at the arriving Zhang Yang, revealed a slight smile, and nodded gently.

"Let's go!!"

With a wave of his hand, Xin Buxiu took Zhang Yang to the summit of the main peak of the Nourishing Heart Lineage.

Atop a vast and misty mountain peak shrouded in clouds, an exquisite palace was faintly visible.

Zhang Yang and Xin Buxiu appeared before the palace, where thousands of people were gathered.

Among them were both old and young, and their cultivation levels were not low; there were even powerhouses of the Venerable King Realm.

Xin Buxiu and Zhang Yang appeared before these thousands of people.

"Greetings, branch master!" the thousands of people bowed respectfully and shouted in unison.

"That's enough!" Xin Buxiu waved his hand and said casually:

"I have called you here today for only one thing, and that is for my Personal Disciple, Zhang Yang. From now on, within the Myriad Manifestations Pavilion, seeing him is like seeing me!"

Elder Xin's voice was not loud, yet it resonated throughout the heavens and earth!

Hearing this, the thousands of people were startled and looked at Zhang Yang beside Xin Buxiu, sizing him up carefully.

Meanwhile, their hearts were filled with endless shock; this was the branch master of the Nourishing Heart Lineage!

A powerhouse of the Dao Severing Realm was a renowned figure throughout the entire Central Region.

Furthermore, Xin Buxiu had never taken anyone as a Personal Disciple before.

Now that he had actually taken this unheard-of Zhang Yang as a Personal Disciple, how could the people of the lineage not be shocked?

The Grand Elder of the Nourishing Heart Lineage was a powerhouse of the Venerable King Realm.

Sizing up Zhang Yang, he thought to himself:

"Could he be a Genius the branch master found outside? Why have I never heard of this Zhang Yang before?"

The Grand Elder muttered to himself; he didn't know Zhang Yang at all.

He wondered what kind of talent he possessed to be taken as a Personal Disciple by the branch master!

Among the thousands of people below, they were also secretly wondering.

They didn't know what kind of talent this Zhang Yang had to actually be taken as a Personal Disciple by the branch master!

It must be a world-shaking talent!

Thinking of this, the thousands of people below showed envious expressions, then bowed and shouted loudly:

"Congratulations to the branch master on gaining a fine Disciple!"

Although no one had heard of Zhang Yang's name, they still congratulated loudly.

After all, this was a Personal Disciple personally taken by the branch master, and he would likely become the Revered Master of the Nourishing Heart Lineage in the future!

At this moment, they naturally had to show enough respect!

"Mm! Not bad!"

Looking at the people below, Xin Buxiu smiled and nodded with satisfaction.

"I will first take you to select a Heaven-rank Martial Skill. As for other cultivation resources, you can use your Disciple Token to go directly to the Nourishing Heart Hall within the lineage and take whatever you need."

Xin Buxiu finished speaking and looked at Zhang Yang.

For Xin Buxiu, who also had experience in comprehending Heaven-rank Martial Skills,

he naturally knew what Zhang Yang needed most at this time: enough Heaven-rank Martial Skills!

Zhang Yang nodded slightly upon hearing this, and then Xin Buxiu waved his hand, bringing him before a pavilion.

After the two left, the thousands of people on the mountain summit

looked at each other and erupted in a flurry of shock and discussion.

"Who exactly is this Zhang Yang? Is he a Genius the branch master found from the outside world? Why have I never heard of him before?"

One person asked with a look of doubt.

Soon, someone gathered information about Zhang Yang.

"I found it! This Zhang Yang is a Genius who just came from the Southern Region a month ago and originally joined the Qingfeng Dharma Lineage!"

"He recently participated in a Dharma Lineage Competition. He probably caught the branch master's eye by showing his talent then, right?" someone said loudly.

Hearing about Zhang Yang's origin, everyone frowned, and someone said in confusion:

"A Genius from the Southern Region? Isn't that just someone from the countryside?"

"In such a remote and desolate place, how much of a Genius can a Genius be?"

"To think the branch master would actually take an interest in him?"

Hearing this, everyone nodded.

In their eyes, although geniuses from the Four Regions of the East, West, South, and North all went to the Central Region,

those four regions were just small places with meager resources.

Even if geniuses from such places came to the Central Region and could

Cultivate a bit faster due to the more abundant resources, they still weren't much.

"You don't know, he easily defeated Meng Ci in the Dharma Lineage Competition! And Meng Ci had already broken through to the Divine Ruins Realm at that time!"

Someone else found more information and couldn't help but speak up.

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was shocked!

Meng Ci's name was quite well-known in the Myriad Manifestations Pavilion; even the True Disciples of the Four Great Factions could at most fight to a draw with him.

Yet Meng Ci, who had broken through to the Divine Ruins Realm in the Small World, was actually easily defeated by this Zhang Yang.

Then Zhang Yang's talent seems to be truly terrifying!

"No wonder! With such talent, he indeed has the qualifications to be taken as a Personal Disciple by the branch master!" someone exclaimed.

Being able to easily defeat Meng Ci just a month after coming to the Central Region from the Southern Region,

such talent was completely sufficient to be taken as a Personal Disciple by the branch master.

"I'm afraid it's far more than that."

The Grand Elder of the Nourishing Heart Lineage thought to himself; he could see that Zhang Yang's cultivation had already reached the Sixth Level Cave Heaven Realm.

This meant that before Zhang Yang left the Southern Region, his level of Law comprehension was already at the third level, or at least at the limit of the second level!

Otherwise, it would be impossible to raise his cultivation to the Sixth Level Cave Heaven Realm in just over a month.

Although such talent was world-shaking, there were others like him in the Myriad Manifestations Pavilion.

To be taken as a Personal Disciple by the branch master, Zhang Yang's talent must be even higher than this,

and even more transcendent!

"Could it be?" The Grand Elder seemed to have thought of something, then shook his head.

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible! Comprehending a Heaven-rank Martial Skill in the Grotto-Heaven Realm? That's absolutely impossible!"

The Grand Elder kept denying it in his heart; this guess was simply too much of a challenge to his common sense.

For even the most talented Disciple, comprehending a Heaven-rank Martial Skill after the Third Level Divine Ruins Realm is already the limit.

How could it be possible in the Grotto-Heaven Realm?

"Greetings, branch master!"

Seeing Xin Buxiu, a person in front of the pavilion hurried forward to pay his respects.

"This is my Personal Disciple. From now on, he can enter and leave this place as he pleases."

Xin Buxiu looked at the person in front of him, pointed at Zhang Yang beside him, and said calmly.

"Yes, yes, yes!"

The person in front of him nodded hurriedly, then looked up at Zhang Yang, his heart filled with immense shock.

The branch master, who had never taken a Personal Disciple, had actually taken one!

"Let's go, I'll introduce you to our Nourishing Heart Lineage's Scripture Pavilion."

Xin Buxiu nodded slightly, turned to look at Zhang Yang with a smile, and then stepped into the pavilion.

Zhang Yang followed suit.

Upon entering the pavilion, Zhang Yang observed his surroundings.

The Scripture Pavilion of the Nourishing Heart Lineage was similar to the public Scripture Pavilion of the Myriad Manifestations Pavilion,

only it was a bit more simple inside, and there was no ball of light hanging above.
