Chapter 626: The Sect Master’s Inheritance
Thirty-five figures, these are the thirty-five sect masters of the Mountain-Sea Seeking-Tao Sect since its founding!
Jiang Yun originally thought that the so-called Sect Master Ring was just a symbol of identity.
But it wasn’t until he scanned it with his divine sense that he realized the Sect Master Ring was also a form of inheritance.
Because inside, it not only holds all the secrets of the Seeking-Tao Sect, but also contains the most cherished technique left by each sect master.
After becoming a sect master, each one must drip a drop of their own blood into the Sect Master Ring from the time they take office until they step down, forming an image to record their most prized technique, passing it on to the next sect master.
This practice is not recorded in the rules of the Seeking-Tao Sect, nor is it mandatory, only a voluntary act of each sect master.
Because every sect master shares a common wish.
It was the goal of the Mountain-Sea Seeking-Tao Sect to one day return to the Main Sect, so that all disciples could explore the vast world.
To achieve this, the sect master needed to have strong power.
Although Jiang Yun was not the most powerful among the former sect masters in terms of realm and cultivation, he had the most complex power.
He possessed all five elements, as well as the primordial chaos power older than the world’s creation, and even a Tao Mark snatched from the Tao Calamity.
Despite this, when he saw the thirty-five sect masters display their techniques, he was greatly shocked.
Even though the techniques left behind by the thirty-five sect masters were not Taoist spells, each one was very exquisite.
For example, Dao Tianyou’s technique was called Freezing Sea!
Despite the vast sea flowing endlessly, Dao Tianyou’s technique could freeze it in place.
In short, it was the ability to temporarily immobilize everything through manipulation of various powers!
When Jiang Yun opened the tenth meridian and summoned Tianyan, causing black thunder to descend, Dao Tianyou also used this technique and with Tao Mark’s help, froze the black thunder for a minute!
Apart from Dao Tianyou, the techniques left by the previous sect masters are diverse and unique in their own ways.
Among them are sword techniques, knife techniques, finger techniques, and elemental techniques.
It is clear that those who can become Seeking-Tao Sect sect masters are all strong individuals.
If it weren’t for the urgency of time now, Jiang Yun would want to learn all thirty-five techniques right away.
After reviewing the thirty-five techniques, what lies ahead for Jiang Yun is the unveiling of all the secrets of the Seeking-Tao Sect.
The Mountain-Sea World Seeking-Tao Sect was established many years ago by a disciple named Dao Yuanzhi, who also came from the Main Sect for a mission.
Dao Yuanzhi, despite being from the Main Sect, remains the most mysterious when it comes to his life and whereabouts!
Among the thirty-four subsequent sect masters, including Dao Tianyou, five also come from the Main Sect.
Among them, three people’s task was not like Dao Tianyou’s, to elevate the status of the Mountain-Sea Branch Seeking-Tao Sect, but to investigate Dao Yuanzhi’s whereabouts!
In other words, after creating the Mountain-Sea Seeking-Tao Sect and passing on the position of sect master to his disciple, Dao Yuanzhi neither stayed in Mountain-Sea World nor returned to Seeking-Tao Heaven, and then disappeared without a trace, no one knew where he went.
Apart from his mysterious disappearance, when he first arrived in Mountain-Sea World, the Main Sect only gave him five treasures and the practice of "The Human Tao".
However, he not only left behind these things, but also created the Palm of Asking Dao, and especially left behind a mortal-grade Dao weapon – the Hidden Tao Sword!
It should be noted that although Dao Tianyou and the others were all core disciples of the Main Sect, with high status, they did not yet have the qualifications to possess Dao weapons.
The origin of the Hidden Tao Sword naturally became a mystery.
What puzzled Dao Tianyou and the others even more was why Dao Yuanzhi, who had obtained a Dao weapon, was willing to leave it in Mountain-Sea World!
But regardless, because Dao Yuanzhi left behind these two things, the Chop-Sky Sword and the other five treasures had no qualifications to be considered the foundation of the sect.
The Hidden Tao Sword, Palm of Asking Dao, and the practice of "The Human Tao" became the three true foundations of the present Seeking-Tao Sect.
Also, not sure how Dao Yuanzhi did it, but somehow he made disciples from the Main Sect only able to use their abilities three times, and they couldn’t even take the Hidden Tao Sword out of the Mountain-Sea World.
However, his actions seemed a bit unnecessary.
Because five Main Sect disciples, including Dao Tianyou, only Dao Tianyou used the Hidden Tao Sword, the other four didn’t use it at all.
In fact, they probably didn’t even report about the Hidden Tao Sword to the Main Sect.
Otherwise, with Main Sect’s power, they definitely wouldn’t allow the existence of a Dao artifact within a minor sect, they would have sent someone to take the Hidden Tao Sword long ago.
Knowing the secrets of the Seeking-Tao Sect, especially learning about Dao Yuanzhi’s deeds, made Jiang Yun somewhat emotional.
Before this, he never imagined that the history of the Seeking-Tao Sect was so ancient and profound.
Those who came before planted the trees, so the later ones can enjoy the shade.
Though he became the sect master in a time of crisis, he actually inherited everything left behind by the thirty-five previous sect masters for no reason.
Of course, accepting also means taking responsibility.
Since I agreed to Dao Tianyou and became the thirty-sixth sect master, I must now bear the burden of the Seeking-Tao Sect.
"The Sect Master Ring only works for myself, and in the current situation of the Seeking-Tao Sect, it doesn’t offer much help."
Despite defeating the Ghostly Samsara Hell and having Brother Hei join, Jiang Yun knows that the Seeking-Tao Sect is still weak and in need of improvement.
Although they won the battle against the Ghostly Samsara Hell, it was a very lucky and difficult victory.
Without the disciples sacrificing their lives and Dao Tianyou’s final sword strike, the outcome could have been very different, and the Seeking-Tao Sect might have disappeared.
It’s not that the Ghostly Samsara Hell disciples are very strong, but their background is too mysterious.
Whether it’s the Summoning Soul Bell that can affect souls or the Soul-Locking Incense that can trap souls, Jiang Yun didn’t know about these strange backgrounds until he witnessed them firsthand.
This made Jiang Yun realize that not only the five major sects but also smaller sects and families like the Luo family have their own deep backgrounds.
These secrets, each one is important and should not be underestimated.
Therefore, to avoid the disaster in the Mountain-Sea World and reach The Great Wilderness Realm, relying solely on individual strength is not enough. It is necessary to improve the strength of all students in the Seeking-Tao Sect.
After thinking deeply for a long time, Jiang Yun finally came up with a solution – formations and elixirs!
Arrange all students in a numerical formation of nine as the base!
At the same time, produce a large amount of elixirs to enhance the cultivation of the students.
For example, the Cave Heaven Elixir, even if it can produce one more Cave Heaven cultivator, it will enhance the strength of the entire sect.
Thinking of this, Jiang Yun immediately spread out his spiritual energy, covering the entire Seeking-Tao Sect.
"All students who understand formations, gather in the square immediately. Also, gather all the medicinal herbs and spirit stones of the Seeking-Tao Sect together!"
Taking a deep breath, Jiang Yun stood up, overlooking the entire Seeking-Tao Sect, saying word by word, "Senior members, I will do my best to show everyone a new Seeking-Tao Sect!"
