12: Chapter 12: Disciple's Introduction and Immortal Techniques

Inside the Sect Masters Hall.

Thinking that there were still two cultivation advancement cards unused.

"System, use the cultivation advancement card."

[Using cultivation advancement card, congratulations host for reaching the Saint Transformation Realm]

The Saint Transformation Realm is a very significant watershed. Upon stepping into this Realm, one's life level undergoes a qualitative change. Cultivators begin their path to Sainthood in this Realm.

Feeling the power within his body, Lin Chen found it rather bland.

"System, give me a few more cultivation advancement cards, pull me straight to the Emperor Realm. Now I'm only at Saint Transformation, how will outsiders view me, the Sect Master of the number one Sect in all Realms!"

[Detecting host's request, sending special reward: Taixuan Robe]

[Taixuan Robe: Exclusive robe for the Taixuan Sect Master. Invulnerable to all techniques, infinitely profound.]

[Wearing this robe isolates the host from the outside world. No one can detect the host's cultivation, only feeling the host is unfathomable]

[Truly a Sharp Weapon for the host to show off]

"Not bad, you're quite sensible."

Lin Chen's eyes lit up. With a thought of his Divine Thought, a dark, flowing cloud-patterned robe covered his body. It felt slightly cool to the touch, and instantly, a faint, elusive profound light enveloped him, completely concealing his cultivation aura.

After his cultivation stabilized, Lin Chen moved his Divine Thought: "Xiao Zhan, lead the newly entered Disciples into the Sect."

"As the Sect Master commands." Xiao Zhan acknowledged the order.

"All Disciples, follow me into the Sect."

Three thousand one hundred and twenty-seven new Disciples lined up and followed Elder Xiao Zhan as they stepped through the mountain gate of the Taixuan Sect.

As soon as they entered, everyone froze in unison, their steps subconsciously halting.

Before their eyes, the Sect was shrouded in mist and clouds. The Spiritual Qi between heaven and earth was so dense it nearly materialized. Taking a single breath, they felt their Meridians throughout their bodies become comfortable, and the Qi in their Dantians began to surge autonomously.

They were all outstanding talents from various places in the Eastern Region, having visited famous mountains, great rivers, and Sect Secret Realms, yet they had never seen a place with Spiritual Qi as dense as this.

The Spiritual Qi treasure lands of ordinary Sects couldn't even compare to the ordinary corners of the Taixuan Sect!

"My heavens, this Spiritual Qi... just one breath feels like my cultivation is about to increase!"

"Is this the foundation of the Taixuan Sect? No wonder it dares to dominate the Eastern Region!"

"Before, I only heard of the Taixuan Sect's prestige. Seeing it today, I finally understand what a great Sect is!"

The Disciples whispered in awe, their eyes filled with shock and ecstasy. Even the usually steady Shi Man had a flicker of surprise in his eyes, subconsciously circulating his Cultivation Technique to absorb the surrounding Spiritual Qi.

Lei Yan was also inwardly moved. Lightly pinching his fingertips, he felt the Spiritual Qi here was a hundred times purer than that in the cultivation chambers of Black Iron City.

The remnant soul within his ancestral jade pendant seemed stirred by this Spiritual Qi, trembling slightly.

"Yan'er, this Taixuan Sect is not simple," said the remnant soul within Lei Yan's jade pendant.

In his previous life, he was a Quasi-Emperor powerhouse, considered a strong expert across the entire continent.

His knowledge far surpassed that of these Disciples. The density of Spiritual Qi here couldn't be matched even by the peerless Emperor Sects or ancient clans of the Central Region.

Not long after, all Disciples stood in the Sect's square, neatly lined up.

Xiao Zhan stood below the jade platform at the front of the square. His gaze swept over the crowd, his voice deep and resonant like a bell, penetrating the vast Spiritual Qi to reach every corner of the square, carrying unquestionable respect:

"Newly entered Disciples, heed the command! Today, the Sect Master personally arrives to bestow the Sect's foundational Cultivation Technique. All of you, tidy your appearances and respectfully welcome the Sect Master's arrival!"

As his words fell, Xiao Zhan was the first to bow in salute. The six guardian Elders followed closely behind, their Void Tempering and Venerable Realm auras completely restrained as they bowed their heads, their postures extremely reverent.

Seeing this, the three thousand new Disciples dared not show the slightest neglect. They quickly suppressed their inner astonishment, bowed in unison, and stood with heads lowered.

The entire square instantly became so quiet you could hear a pin drop. Only the slightly hurried breathing of the crowd remained, filling the area with respectful solemnity.

At that moment, an indifferent figure slowly approached from the direction of the Sect Masters Hall, walking through the air. His toes lightly touched the clouds, as if treading on waves.

Enveloped in a faint layer of profound light, his specific cultivation was unclear, yet an intangible pressure slowly spread, deep as an abyss and vast as the sea, making anyone who looked feel awe.

It was precisely the Taixuan Sect Master, Lin Chen.

His steps were unhurried. In just a few breaths, he landed in the center of the square, his posture upright, his gaze calmly sweeping over the bowing crowd below.

The group of Disciples looked up stealthily.

"Is this the Sect Master? He looks terrifyingly strong at first glance!"

"Yes, such a powerful aura. Just standing there makes people afraid to look directly!"

The Disciples were inwardly shocked, their gazes toward Lin Chen gaining a few more points of reverence.

The Quasi-Emperor remnant soul within Lei Yan subconsciously focused to probe, but ultimately felt only an intangible force blocking it. It couldn't detect even the slightest trace of aura, shocking it immensely.

Lin Chen seemed unaware of everyone's thoughts, speaking solemnly:

"You have passed the Heart-Questioning Heavenly Ladder and entered my Taixuan, thus becoming Taixuan Disciples. Today, I bestow upon you the Sect's foundational Cultivation Technique 'Taixuan Guidance.' This technique can temper your Physique, nourish your bone foundation, and solidify your Dao base. Henceforth, it will be the foundation of your cultivation."

As his words fell, Lin Chen raised his hand and waved. Countless pale cyan streams of light flew from his palm, each entering the forehead of every Disciple.

The techniquemnemonic and circulation methods of 'Taixuan Guidance' instantly appeared in everyone's minds. The profound method seemed simple on the surface but contained infinite marvelous principles.

Everymnemonic, every Meridian circulation route, was a hundred times more exquisite than any Cultivation Technique they had ever encountered!

The square instantly fell into dead silence, with only the heavy breathing of the Disciples.

A moment later, a tidal wave of discussion erupted.

"This Cultivation Technique... it's too profound! The Cultivation Technique I practiced before is like child's play compared to this!"

"In my opinion, it's at least a Saint King Realm Cultivation Technique! Only a Saint King Realm Legacy could have such foundation!"

"Saint King Realm? Not necessarily! I guess it's a Quasi-Emperor Realm Cultivation Technique."

Some argued until their faces turned red, but no one dared to underestimate the grade of 'Taixuan Guidance.' After all, if the Taixuan Sect used it as a foundational Cultivation Technique to teach, how could it be ordinary?

Just as everyone held their own views and speculation reached its Peak, Xiao Zhan stepped forward and declared loudly:

"You need not speculate. The 'Taixuan Guidance' bestowed by the Sect Master is not of the King Realm, nor the Emperor Realm. It is an Immortal Technique."

That single word fell like a thunderclap exploding above the square!

"Im... Immortal Technique?!"

"Did I hear correctly? Immortal Technique? That's a Cultivation Technique that only exists in legends!"

"The foundational Cultivation Technique is an Immortal Technique?! What kind of background does this Sect have!"

The Disciples were completely stunned. The shock on their faces turned into extreme disbelief. Some even subconsciously rubbed their ears, thinking they were hallucinating.

In this world, the Emperor Realm was already the Peak. Immortal Techniques were only mentioned in fragments within ancient Incomplete Manuals; no one had ever truly seen one.

Now, the Taixuan Sect was actually teaching an Immortal Technique as a foundational Cultivation Technique. Such a move left everyone dizzy and disoriented.

At this moment, within the ancestral jade pendant inside Lei Yan, that Quasi-Emperor remnant soul could no longer remain calm, trembling violently.

A thought filled with shock and disbelief exploded in Lei Yan's mind: "Immortal Technique! It really is an Immortal Technique!"

The remnant soul's shock far surpassed Lei Yan's. He had lived for tens of thousands of years, reaching the Quasi-Emperor Realm.

He once thought the Emperor Realm was the end of the great Dao, and Immortal Techniques were merely illusory legends. Now, he actually saw an Immortal Technique appear in the world, and it was being taught as a foundational Cultivation Technique. This impact made even his remaining Divine Soul tremble.

On the square, the three thousand Disciples were all stunned by the words "Immortal Technique." Their gazes toward Lin Chen on the jade platform had transformed from initial reverence into extreme veneration and fanaticism.

Entering Taixuan, obtaining an Immortal Technique.

They knew that their choice today destined them to step onto an unprecedented path to the heavens!

On the jade platform, Lin Chen looked at the shocked Disciples below, his gaze calm. 'Taixuan Guidance' was just the beginning. He wanted to build the number one Sect in all Realms. This bit of foundation was merely the tip of the iceberg.
