Bombarding Cultivators with Cluster Artillery-Chapter 152 - 145: The Nine Supreme Scriptures of Xianmen Sect_1

"Yes, cultivation methods are so important to Xianmen cultivators," he said.

"Higher-level cultivation methods mean higher quality mana, faster cultivation speeds, fewer cultivation bottlenecks, and stronger magic powers and escape abilities. There are no downsides."

Guo Kui fell into reminiscence.

"I had a Quadruple Spiritual Root and at the age of sixteen, I passed the exams for Qianling University Taoism Department. I immediately chose one of the nine classics of Xianmen, the ’All Heavens Beidou Classic’. After mastering it, I was comparable to the Taoist disciples and Substitute Daoist Masters of the Nine Great Immortal Sects, and I gained a significant boost in commanding troops in battle."

"But later..."

"I’m not afraid of your ridicule."

Guo Kui gave a wry smile, spreading his hands: "I spent more than a year and didn’t even understand the beginning."

"I recognized every Spiritual Script individually, but when connected, they all changed; even with the Golden Pill Realm principal of our university dedicating precious time to teaching me earnestly, it was still the same dead end, not a single clue in sight."

"However, this is not a shortcoming of the ’All Heavens Beidou Classic’, it’s my shortcoming."

"Later on, I tried a ’Classic’ Level Technique. I understood the beginning, but the vast whole was of no use; after another wasted year, I had no choice but to give up."

"In the end, I chose a ’Law’ Level Technique, and after struggling for five years, I barely got a grasp on it."

"All these trials together took me a total of seven years."

"Seven years?"

Jiang Ding was shocked.

Simply choosing a cultivation method and beginning took so much time, more than the sum of his entire cultivation time from junior high up to now.

"Yes, mine is just a common case, with some spending ten or even more years."

Guo Kui said earnestly, "But it was totally worth it. If I had cultivated the lowest-level ’Folktale’ Level Techniques, I might have seemed to be ahead for a while, but difficulties and bottlenecks would be awaiting at every step. With a Quadruple Spiritual Root, I probably wouldn’t have even reached the Late-stage Qi Practicing by now."

"And don’t think the ’Law’ Level Technique is easy, its difficulty is also terrifying. Had it not been for the guidance from the Golden Pill Realm principal of Qianling University, I wouldn’t have managed to get started."

"In most Immortal Sects, ’Law’ Level Techniques are the highest inheritance, available only to the most outstanding students with the hope of reaching the Golden Pellet Realm."

Jiang Ding pondered thoughtfully.

"That’s the most important advice I have for you today," Guo Kui said seriously. "Don’t just pick any cultivation method to practice now; it’s better to wait until you enter university and, under the guidance of a teacher, choose the highest-level cultivation method you can handle."

"Get this step right, and five or ten years is nothing at all."

"With your aptitude, having already fully mastered the ’Eagle Taking Off Technique’, you might be able to practice ’Classic’ Level Techniques. Don’t let impatience for quick gains delay your bright future."

"Furthermore, even if you enter the Qi Practicing Phase now, it would only be the early phase, and those in the Eaglet Innate early phase get the same cultivation bonus. With your tank driving magic inadequately practiced, it will be useless."

"I understand," Jiang Ding said earnestly, suppressing his current desire to delve into the Immortal Path.

"Teacher, how difficult is it to practice ’Scripture’ Level Techniques?"

Being an Eaglet Innate at such a young age, he naturally thought that if others could do it, he could do it too.

"Difficulty?"

"All I remember is that my mind was completely muddled, and I couldn’t understand a thing."

Guo Kui wasn’t surprised by his question.

This is something almost every young cultivator from Xianmen would ask and try, although 99.9% fail.

After consideration, he made an analogy.

"The practical exam topics for your college entrance exam have been announced, have you been following the students from the Affiliated High School of Beidou University Taoist Department?"

Guo Kui said, "The best students there, deemed prodigies within Xianmen, have reached the level of Second Order War Commanders and naturally, they are also Second Order Formation Masters."

"At the age of sixteen, being a Second Order Formation Master surpasses the Formation Path level of the vast majority of Foundation-building cultivators."

Formation Method, the cornerstone of the Immortal Path.

```

"A Second-Order Formation Master, at this level, it might be possible to comprehend the highest ’Scripture’ Level Techniques of the Xianmen Sect, but only possibly."

"I think you can take a reference."

"Even at Qingfeng University and Beidou University Taoist Department, where top scholars from various Immortal Sects gather, only a very few can achieve this."

Second-Order Formation Master!

Jiang Ding took a deep breath, his heart pounding.

The Immortal Path offers a hundred arts, yet formation is the most difficult.

At this moment, he is not even a First-Order Formation Master, not just him, but the vast majority of foundation-building cultivators also lack the ability and talent to become a Second-Order Formation Master.

"It is this challenging!"

Guo Kui, seeing his disbelief, affirmed, "This year’s college entrance exam, with over a million elite examinees sifted through various selections, including Nascent Soul and Golden Pill scions, many geniuses emerged, and it would be quite something if five or six could cultivate the Nine Great True Scriptures of the Xianmen."

"These are the seeds of Divinity Transformation."

"Actually, the seventy-two classics of the Xianmen Sect aren’t bad either."

Guo Kui comforted him:

"Those who cultivate this Cultivation Method can all be said to have a sliver of hope for Nascent Soul; Nascent Soul Seeds, even university presidents are at this level. In over ten thousand years, Rongcheng City has never produced a Nascent Soul Monk."

"Just work hard towards this direction, and don’t compare with others."

"I understand, Teacher."

A flicker of ambition shone through Jiang Ding’s eyes.

...

With Guo Kui’s repeated reminders, Jiang Ding returned to the classroom.

"...We have gone over the basic Five Elements Formation Method, now let’s look at this problem, the First-order Rejuvenation Array, which is a Water-Wood combination array, often appears in the ten-point problems..."

On the podium,

Math teacher Wang Lan spoke eloquently, occasionally producing models of array formations and structures of array patterns, explaining their configurations, carving methods, types of variant arrays, and how they could be combined with other arrays in a simple and understandable way.

Many students, including several Qi Practicing Realm classmates, listened drowsily.

"So that’s how it is..."

Jiang Ding had an epiphany.

Unsurprisingly, he found that with Xiantian True Qi as a reference, along with his Divine Soul’s daily strengthening from the nourishment of the Flying Sword, the math class that used to be incredibly challenging now became easily understandable.

"Teacher Wang Lan seems to be a First-Order Formation Master?"

"If I continue learning at this pace, coupled with additional study in the library after class, there’s a good chance I can reach the level of a First-Order Formation Master before the college entrance exam, capable of setting up most First-Order Arrays."

Jiang Ding calculated quietly to himself.

"Buzz!"

The phone vibrated softly; he glanced down to see a message from the Xianmen Library, not on the silent list during class.

"Citizen 5227...89, Jiang Ding, you have reached the Xiantian Realm and are now granted full citizenship rights."

Guo Kui had reported his realm.

This full citizenship rights signify precocious adulthood, arising from the Xianmen Sect’s many life-and-death struggles.

This means that in an emergency war situation, any Xiantian cultivator or Qi Practitioner, even if underage, would be drafted into the battlefield.

Of course, the draft order is very low, and they would typically not call upon these young cultivators unless the nation were on the brink of extinction.

From now on,

Jiang Ding gained the civil rights of an adult, the right to vote, the ability to access many resources from the Xianmen Library without the need for parental consent anymore.

"You have entered into the First Law of the Immortal Gate, Article Six, the Knowledge and Query Law, which defines your rights and duties."
