Chapter 1243: Chapter 522: Lure and Kill [Subscribe Requested]_2

"Having the jade slip is sufficient. Little Friend Zhou is indeed someone who understands the bigger picture!"

Baiyue True Person responded with a satisfied expression, while also praising Zhou Chun with a compliment.

In truth, he did not particularly care about Zhou Chun’s cultivation technique, because he knew in his heart that no matter how powerful a technique was, it still depended on who was cultivating it.

What he cared more about was Zhou Chun’s attitude toward the matter.

And now, Zhou Chun’s demeanor clearly left him quite satisfied.

Right then and there, in front of Baiyue True Person, Zhou Chun transcribed all four Chapters of the Golden Cauldron Profound Technique’s cultivation methods into the jade slip, then handed it over to him.

After all, the first two Chapters of this technique had long been recorded in the Green Lotus Temple’s archives, and it was likely that Tianjing Villa had them as well; even the Commanding Spirit Sect probably possessed copies.

So what harm would it do if the Moon Wheel Sect obtained one more copy?

Zhou Chun wasn’t worried that anyone could exploit his cultivation technique to target him, because his true power didn’t come from either his cultivation technique or his Lifebound Dharma Treasure.

Anyone who believed they’d found a weakness in his cultivation technique or Lifebound Dharma Treasure and thought they could use it against him would surely suffer a humiliating defeat!

Moreover, after Baiyue True Person received the jade slip, he did not shy away from Zhou Chun but instead began directly reviewing its contents right in front of him.

With his cultivation at the Golden Core Late Stage, merely skimming through the contents wouldn’t take him much effort or time.

After only two quarters of an hour had passed, he set down the jade slip, gazing at Zhou Chun with a face full of emotion and sighed, "So that’s how it is! To think that the cultivation technique Little Friend Zhou employs turns out to be none other than a Heaven-Connecting Profound Art from the ancient times that few have dared to cultivate! No wonder your Divine Skills and Dharma Treasure appear so formidable!"

Heaven-Connecting Profound Art?

Zhou Chun was momentarily taken aback, hearing this term for the first time.

Immediately, he looked at Baiyue True Person with a face full of confusion and respectfully asked, "May I ask, Sect Leader True Person, what is a Heaven-Connecting Profound Art?"

"The so-called Heaven-Connecting Profound Arts are how we late-era cultivators refer to some cultivation techniques from the ancient times."

"Techniques like the Golden Cauldron Profound Technique that Little Friend Zhou cultivates are Heaven-Connecting Profound Arts passed down by some Outer-Realm Immortal Lords from the pre-ancient era. These types of techniques don’t place much emphasis on Spirit Root Aptitude but place greater importance on the comprehension and opportunities of the cultivator."

"If one has exceptional comprehension and luck, cultivating such arts would go smoothly, often making it easier to achieve Core Formation and Infant Transformation, which may even grant immensely powerful Divine Skills!"

"However, if one’s comprehension and luck are mediocre, cultivating this type of technique could lead to easily perishing amidst tribulations!"

...

Baiyue True Person spoke eloquently, quickly dispelling Zhou Chun’s doubts.

According to his explanation, any ancient-era technique classified as a Heaven-Connecting Profound Art required the cultivator to undergo a life-and-death tribulation, akin to the Reforging of the Shattered Cauldron, upon completing each Chapter or level of cultivation.

If a cultivator could overcome such tribulations, their path forward would become clear, with no further concerns within that stage regarding the cultivation technique, but failure would inevitably result in their annihilation!

The Dao Cauldron within Zhou Chun’s body needed to be reforged each time he broke through to a higher realm because, without reforging, it would be impossible to suppress the various hidden dangers arising during cultivation.

For example, when other cultivators practiced certain top-tier Golden Attribute Techniques, they were often affected by the techniques, either developing cold and rigid personalities or suffering from hidden injuries in their physical bodies due to the erosion of Golden Qi, and in some cases, even experiencing partial metallic transformation!

To counter these effects, they would either practice other secret techniques to mitigate the damage or rely on consuming special elixirs to avoid the effects.

Yet, despite Zhou Chun absorbing vast amounts of Golden Qi during cultivation, neither his personality nor his physical body had been affected by it. On the contrary, his body was further tempered and refined.

This was all due to the suppression of the Dao Cauldron!

"Though such Heaven-Connecting Profound Arts offer immense benefits, they often demand exceedingly high resources, making them progressively harder to cultivate as one advances further."

"Take your cultivation technique, for example, Little Friend Zhou. If you were to form a Nascent Soul in the future, the quality of Golden Qi required for the Reforging of the Shattered Cauldron would likely be unparalleled in the world!"

"Moreover, for us cultivators, having barely succeeded in Transforming Elixir and Forming Infant, having barely survived the Heart Demon Calamity and Heavenly Tribulation to enjoy a lifespan of two to three thousand years, who would willingly gamble their life and Dao on the success rate of the Reforging of the Shattered Cauldron?"

"Therefore, in today’s times, among those with exceptional aptitude who aspire to achieve Core Formation and Nascent Soul Formation, very few dare to cultivate these types of Heaven-Connecting Profound Arts!"

As Baiyue True Person spoke these words, he couldn’t help but shake his head, losing all interest in the Golden Cauldron Profound Technique.

At the same time, he felt a sense of relief settle in his heart.

Since Zhou Chun was cultivating this type of Heaven-Connecting Profound Art, the likelihood of him reaching the Nascent Soul Stage in the future was slim.

Even if Zhou Chun managed to Transform Elixir and Form Infant later, completing the third Reforging of the Shattered Cauldron was nearly impossible. He would remain far short of being able to pose any significant threat to the Moon Wheel Sect.

And there was one more thing Baiyue True Person hadn’t told Zhou Chun.

For those who cultivated Heaven-Connecting Profound Arts and formed a Nascent Soul, their Heavenly Tribulation often became far more severe than that of other cultivators!

Taking these two aspects into account, Zhou Chun’s future achievements would likely peak at the Golden Core Late Stage.

And without reaching the Nascent Soul Stage, he posed no threat to the Moon Wheel Sect, meaning there was no need to maintain any apprehension toward Zhou Chun or the Zhou Family anymore!

With this in mind, Baiyue True Person said to Zhou Chun, "Within this sect’s Scripture Pavilion are several Heaven-Connecting Profound Arts passed down from the ancient times, along with cultivation methods for some rumor-shrouded powerful Divine Skills. Since Little Friend Zhou has contributed this Golden Cauldron Profound Technique, you may enter and select one to take with you!"

"Additionally, I shall exempt the Zhou Family from all tributes for the next ten years, as a reward for your contribution of the cultivation technique!"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Chun immediately bowed and expressed his gratitude, "Junior thanks Sect Leader True Person for his generous rewards."
