Chapter 1411 - 285: Three First-Grade Divine Skills

Chapter 1411: Chapter 285: Three First-Grade Divine Skills

Within the Martial Hall, a rare scene of emptiness unfolded.

Shen Changqing watched the scene, feeling nothing peculiar.

He had just delivered a lecture not long ago, and after those in the Martial Hall attended, they certainly needed time to digest their realizations fully. To completely absorb all their insights wasn’t something that could be achieved in a short time.

"Supreme."

Upon sensing Shen Changqing’s arrival, a book floated off the shelf and transformed into the appearance of a young boy before him.

"How many First Grade Divine Skills have you derived now?"

"Reporting to the Supreme, I have successfully derived three First Grade Divine Skills, and the fourth one is in progress but requires more time to complete."

"Three!"

Shen Changqing nodded.

The primary purpose of his visit here was to find Wu Shu and obtain the First Grade Divine Skills it had derived.

According to its earlier statement, deriving one First Grade Divine Skill takes about three years.

Thinking about it.

It should have been ten years since his last meeting with it.

Therefore, three First Grade Divine Skills were expected.

"Give me these three Divine Skills."

"Yes."

Wu Shu nodded, dispelling its transformed figure to reveal its original book form.

Shen Changqing watched the Martial Arts Compendium floating before him, opening the pages to reveal the Divine Skills within naturally.

First Grade Divine Skills.

Indeed, they have the qualifications to touch the Law Level, possessing extraordinary mystique.

After half an hour.

He finally had all three First Grade Divine Skills memorized in his mind.

Fortunately.

He had three Origin Points on his panel, so Shen Changqing decided not to waste time and directly used the Origin Points to elevate the three First Grade Divine Skills to the Law Level inside the Martial Hall.

From this point.

The number of laws he owned officially reached two hundred and five, his strength slightly improved.

Meanwhile, Wu Shu reformed its human-like figure.

"How long will it take you to directly advance to the Seventh Grade Dao Arms?"

Shen Changqing asked.

He sensed that the power of faith surrounding Wu Shu was becoming increasingly dense.

However, when exactly it would advance to the Seventh Grade Dao Arms remained a question.

If it could advance, there would be an opportunity to directly derive laws, which would significantly shorten the time for him to comprehend laws and benefit other cultivators in the future.

After all.

Without a panel, others find comprehending the Three Thousand Laws almost impossible, like being sentenced to death.

During the era of the Ancient Imperial Court, someone could comprehend the Three Thousand Laws within a hundred years, relying not entirely on their innate talent.

Presently, as long as the Legacy Dao Arms can reach the Seventh Grade, it can independently derive laws, which will be immensely beneficial to the Immortal Dao in the future.

"It’s not easy to advance to the Seventh Grade. Although I receive considerable faith now, reaching the Seventh Grade is a significant transformation, and deriving Divine Skills also consumes some faith.

Given the current situation, it might take several hundred to a thousand years to meet the advancement conditions."

Wu Shu shook its head.

To advance to the Seventh Grade Dao Arms is no easy task.

Clearly.

The Seventh Grade and Sixth Grade mark a boundary line, with different levels of difficulty.

Upon hearing this.

Shen Changqing furrowed his brow tightly.

Hundreds or thousands of years, that duration is far too long.

In that case, relying solely on the faith provided by the Imperial Court isn’t enough, and a way must be found to expand the Imperial Court’s faith or collect a substantial amount of Divine Stones.

Otherwise, relying solely on the faith currently provided by the Imperial Court, advancing Wu Shu to the Seventh Grade Dao Arms category is far from easy.

"For now, focus fully on deriving First Grade Divine Skills, and I will ensure you gather enough faith to advance to the Seventh Grade as soon as possible."

Shen Changqing said calmly.

Before laws can be derived, First Grade Divine Skills remain crucial.

Then.

He took out dozens of Jade Stones, which contained the sect-defining ultimate techniques from the Five Sects and Twelve Palaces.

Having fully comprehended these ultimate techniques himself, these Jade Stones held little utility for him.

"Record these sixty-nine sect-defining ultimate techniques so that they can be passed on to others in the future if need be."

Shen Changqing instructed.

The Legacy Dao Arms can deduce martial arts from across the realm and also record them. Martial arts recorded in the Legacy Dao Arms have no risk of being lost.

As long as the Dao Arms are not destroyed, everything recorded will remain intact.

After conveying these instructions, he departed the Martial Hall.

Subsequently.

Shen Changqing went straight to the Imperial Palace without delay.

...

"Defender Shen has arrived."

Seeing him, Gu Xing was not surprised, knowing he would come eventually after spending years delivering teachings.

"Are you planning to leave now?"

"Almost."

Shen Changqing nodded: "Regarding Emperor Xing’s plan to send people to the Heavens, I have some clues, and my primary purpose this time is to discuss this matter."

"It is indeed so!"

Gu Xing’s expression brightened, immediately showing interest.

If the Imperial Court can extend its reach into the Heavens, it would be a tremendous boon, providing an opportunity to solve the resource shortage issue.

"Myriad Clans Cultivators, upon advancing to the Saint Entry level, will coagulate a Heaven and Earth Dao Body. From the outside, there is no distinguishable difference from the Human Clan.

It is actually quite simple for us to enter the Heavens; we merely need to shield our own causality, preventing it from being calculated by the Myriad Clans Powerhouses."

Shen Changqing had no intention of beating around the bush and directly went into the main topic.

"Over the years, I have mastered a portion of the laws concerning causality, able to obscure the causality of anyone below the God Realm. As long as the one whose causality is concealed doesn’t form significant causality with a Myriad Clans Powerhouse, there is no chance of exposure."

"So, are we only able to send Saint Level Cultivators into the Heavens?"

Gu Xing’s expression slightly changed.

Although he has never entered the Heavens, he has a certain understanding of the power of the Myriad Clans.

In the Heavens.

Saint Entry is not quite the bottom tier, yet it is not far from it.

If we only send Saint Cultivators into the Heavens, it would practically serve no purpose.

Shen Changqing said: "Our Immortal Dao Golden Body Realm cultivators are slightly stronger than usual Saints. Additionally, with the teachings I have provided over the years, I am confident that the Imperial Court can dispatch a batch of Immortal Dao Cultivators with peak Saint strength without issue.

Moreover, while Saint is weak, it is relative.

In the Heavens, there are still some weak clans that regard Saint as supreme. These tribes are divided into two types: one relies on other major clans for survival opportunities, or they cling to life on the margins.

Among the two, our Imperial Court can target the latter, extracting a portion of resources from those weak clans, which I believe is feasible."

No matter how weak the clan, they hold considerable resources.

Especially some clans that are connected with the Heavens, the resources within their tribes are impressive.

Leaving aside other discussions.

Just the resources comparable to the Imperial Court, he believes those weak clans possess them.

In this way.

If the Imperial Court can obtain the resources of those clans, it will greatly alleviate pressure.

"Weak clans!"

Gu Xing’s expression subtly shifted.

According to the other party’s statement, the former Human Clan would be considered among those weak clans, but no, weaker than weak clans.

After all, weak clans at least have a Saint Cultivator to oversee, but the former Human Clan couldn’t present a single Saint-level powerhouse.

However.

Times have changed.

Nowadays, although the Human Clan remains weak compared to the Myriad Clans, they do have powerhouses at the Divine King Level to oversee, making them a formidable clan in the Heavens.

Shen Changqing said: "In entering the Heavens, Emperor Xing must select individuals who are absolutely trusted, and their strength cannot be too weak. At that time, I will step in to help them conceal their causality.

Find a suitable time and then enter the Heavens."

"Does Defender Shen have a specific plan?"

"Of course, a plan exists."

Shen Changqing slightly smiled: "Here is the Myriad Lands Jade Talisman; its signaling range is equivalent to ten thousand Eternal Ancient Continents. The so-called Eternal Ancient Continent refers to a vast realm within the Heavens.

The realm of that level is exceedingly expansive, ten thousand times larger than the realm of the Human Clan.

Even if I am in the Heavens, I can communicate with the Human Clan through the Myriad Lands Jade Talisman."

While speaking.

He took out a Myriad Lands Jade Talisman and handed it to Gu Xing.

Among the six Myriad Lands Jade Talismans, two were given to Taishan and Heavenly Mechanism Taoist, serving as mediators, while the two that remained without use were the last two Myriad Lands Jade Talismans.

Now.

These two Myriad Lands Jade Talismans are finally put to use.

Myriad Lands Jade Talisman?

Gu Xing fiddled with the talisman in his hand, unable to discern anything, but just from the words of the other party, the preciousness of this talisman is evident.

Eternal Ancient Continent!

Ten thousand times more expansive than the Human Clan Realm.

What kind of spectacle would that realm be?

Shen Changqing said: "Once I enter the Heavens, I will collect information about each clan. As soon as I obtain news about the weak clans, I will send it over using the Myriad Lands Jade Talisman. At that time, Emperor Xing can send people accordingly."

"Alright, we shall follow Defender Shen’s words!"

Gu Xing nodded.

"I wonder when Defender Shen plans to depart?"

"The departure time is uncertain, yet the sooner the better. During this period, Emperor Xing should first gather people who can enter the Heavens."

Shen Changqing smiled faintly.

After concealing causality, only then can the Imperial Court’s people enter the Heavens. Anyway, when he enters the Heavens, it certainly won’t be under the identity of the Human Clan. By wearing the Myriad Clans mask, he can properly utilize the clan’s strength to gather information.

By then, let the Human Clan surface and strip those weak clans of all their resources thoroughly.

Upon hearing this.

Gu Xing nodded in agreement.

"This emperor will promptly gather people. I wonder if Defender Shen has other requirements for the candidates to enter the Heavens, such as any limitations on the number?"

"No strict requirements, as long as they have strength and loyalty. Given the special status of the Human Clan now, they cannot be exposed under the watchful eyes of the Myriad Clans. Hence, once there is any possibility of exposure, they must possess the resolve to face death."

Shen Changqing’s expression turned solemn.

Without the resolve to face death, if captured by the Myriad Clans, it would bring disaster to the Human Clan.

Therefore.

Strength, loyalty, and resolve are indispensable.
