The Strongest Sect of All Times

Chapter 36: this will be common soon



Lu Qianqian only glanced at the Tendon Altering Sutra, but determined that although the technique was easy to understand, it was deeply profound — definitely a true divine-grade core technique!

Something the sect head had created?

She didn’t believe it! After all, a Meridian Opening martial artist creating a divine-grade core technique? That would shock anyone!

Lu Qianqian didn’t care much about the truth, as there had to be a reason that the sect head did not speak of the technique’s true origins. Thus, she quickly rushed back to her room and began to carefully study it. 

Li Qingyang also returned to his own room to cultivate. 

These two people basically cultivated the Tendon Altering Sutra at the same time. Sometimes their expressions would be solemn, other times wild with joy; their expressions kept changing every second. 

“This Tendon Altering Sutra is stronger than the Mind Purifying Art that I cultivated, they aren’t even comparable! Father, this son’s choice to reject the Azure Mountain Sect and join the Ironbone Unyielding Sect was such a wise choice!”

Li Qingyang was sure that even the fifth-grade Azure Mountain Sect would not have such a mysterious core technique. 

“Huff!”

With a deep breath, he calmed his mind and went back to cultivation. 

The Tendon Altering Sutra was a manual exchanged through the system, which meant that it was simple yet profound. With Li Qingyang’s aptitude, he was able to cultivate it to minor revolution very quickly. 

Even faster was Lu Qianqian. She only revolved her energy a few times with the Tendon Altering Sutra and was immediately joyful. “This technique’s main purpose is to temper the body, so it doesn’t conflict with my Grand Mysterious Ice Heart Art. I can cultivate the two together!”

“But how does Sect Head have a divine-grade technique, a rare tempering one at that? Is it possible that… the Ironbone Unyielding Sect truly is a declined ancient sect?”

Divine-grade techniques were extremely rare on Falling Star Continent, so only those superior major sects had them. She did not believe that Jun Changxiao had chanced upon it in some stall and casually bought it, only that this had to be passed down from ancient times. 

“It seems like I looked down on the Ironbone Unyielding Sect, looked down on Sect Head.”

At this point, Lu Qianqian clenched her fists. Her beautiful eyes exuding murderous intent, she clenched her jaws, “With a divine technique, I have a better chance at vengeance!”

The senior disciple and second disciple were wholly absorbed in the cultivation of the Tendon Altering Sutra. 

The great Sect Head Jun paced back and forth in his room, dumbfounded. “I have cultivated for nearly an hour, but I haven’t felt anything. Did I get scammed?”

[The host’s aptitude is too trash. Even if the Tendon Altering Sutra is easy to understand, you will still find it hard to cultivate.]

“You mean to say, that without the system, I would be fucking useless?”

The system was silent for a long time. [The host’s thought process is very unique, but… it can indeed be considered as such.]

“Aah!”

Jun Changxiao had his head in his hands as he roared, “Lu Qianqian attacks me, the system also attacks me; can’t you just let a guy live?!”

Not good, not good. 

This daddy is going head to head with the Tendon Altering Sutra.

If an hour is not enough, then a day. If a day is not enough, then a year. If a year is not enough, then a lifetime!

I don’t believe that I cannot cultivate this myself! I will not rely on external forces!

Jun Changxiao seemed to have developed a grudge and sat down cross-legged on his bed. Like this, he cultivated for an entire night. At dawn, he collapsed with tiredness, but his voice was filled with joy, “I have finally reached minor revolution…”

Reaching minor revolution did not mean success, as major circulation needed to be reached for long-term cultivation. 

From then, he handed sect matters to Li Qingyang and wholeheartedly invested time into cultivation. 

Hard work pays off. 

Two days later, Jun Changxiao had finally become proficient in the Tendon Altering Sutra. As long as he calmed his mind, he was able to easily create minor revolutions and achieve a major circulation that continued to grow. 

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for completing the hidden mission {Heaven rewards the diligent}, receiving 10 contribution points as a reward!]

[Congratulations to the host for completing the hidden mission {Making up for lack of natural talent with effort}, receiving 10 contribution points as a reward!]

[Congratulations to the host for completing the hidden mission {Relying on one’s own strength}, receiving 10 contribution points as a reward!]

[Ding! Sect Contribution: 50/100.]

The contribution value had increased by 30 points, but Jun Changxiao actually shook his head. “It seems that the system doesn’t want me to overly rely on it, leaving behind such hidden missions.”

“But first there was {Ridding the people of evil}, now there’s {Heaven rewards the diligent}, and even something like {Relying on one’s own strength}… Could all the hidden missions be related to four-character idioms?” 

The Tendon Altering Sutra’s main effect was to refine the body, but it was still a core technique. 

After Jun Changxiao cultivated for a whole day, he realized that his speed of qi absorption was much faster than with the Mind Cleansing Art. 

“Truly, a divine technique is good.”

“With this speed, even those with ordinary aptitude can condense enough energy to challenge a vein within several days!”

Knowing the benefits, Jun Changxiao was even more dedicated to cultivation. 

With his ordinary aptitude, he was able to cultivate it after some diligence, so the ordinary disciples were also able to do so. 

The disciples with low-grade spirit roots were a little tragic. Because of their trash aptitude, learning it was like moving a mountain — they were able to comprehend the technique after 7 or 8 days of hard work. 

After ten days. 

All disciples of the Ironbone Unyielding Sect had reached a basic understanding of the Tendon Altering Sutra. 

These days, Li Qingyang had not been managing the sect, since all the junior disciples had been immersed in cultivation in trance-like states, often skipping meals. 

“Junior brother, how’s your comprehension after these few days?”

“Senior brother, it’s still alright. I have condensed enough to challenge a meridian.”

“Hahaha, same here!”

All the disciples gathered here and there to talk about the Tendon Altering Sutra. 

If they knew that the technique also raised their chances at success, they would be so excited they’d float. 

The next day. 

Some of the disciples began to challenge a new meridian. 

“This… I succeeded?”

One Meridian Opening Stage Four disciple was sitting on his bed. Feeling a new surge of energy through his body, a dumbfounded expression slowly appeared on his face. 

His aptitude was only ordinary, so he had been stuck at the third stage for a year already. During this time, he had repeatedly challenged and failed to open a new meridian. This time, he had just begun to gather energy when there was a ‘ka’ and the meridian had opened. 

Soon, the other disciples also discovered that they didn’t need to make any effort and the walls blocking their unopened meridians would collapse!

“Hahaha!”

“I’ve opened the third meridian, I’ve opened the third meridian!”

One disciple was wild with joy, grinning from ear to ear as tears streamed down his face. 

This scene appeared in other rooms and courtyards, one after another. Regardless of spirit toor, anyone who had used the Tendon Altering Sutra to condense energy was able to successfully break through. 

The next day, 

Li Qingyang stood in the main hall and reported. 

“Meridian Opening Stage Two to Stage Three, nine successes and eight failures. Meridian Opening Stage Three to Stage Four, five successes and six failures. Meridian Opening Stage Four to Stage Five, one success and one failure.”

After finishing his report, he sucked in a deep breath, finding it hard to calm down. 

Living in a family clan, Li Qingyang fully understood how difficult it could be to open a meridian. For example, it would already be a delight if 3 or 5 youths could successfully breakthrough each year. 

Now?

Just yesterday, 30 junior disciples had made attempts!

That was already an intimidating number, one Li Qingyang found hard to believe! But what was even more shocking was that 15 people had actually succeeded!

Jun Changxiao stroked his chin, “Acceptable.”

“A-Acceptable?”

Li Qingyang felt the corners of his mouth twitching. “Sect Head, more than ten junior brothers were successful on the same day, that’s very shocking!”

“Qingyang.”

Jun Changxiao walked over and patted him on the shoulders. “This scene will be common soon. As the second disciple, you must learn to adapt.”

Looking at the sect head leaving, Li Qingyang was nearly soulless. “This type of scene… will be very common?”
