My Informative Cultivation Life

"Senior Brother, please come into the hall and have a seat," Yang Ji said, glancing sideways before commanding Chong Yuan, "Chong Yuan, have someone serve tea."

"There's no need for trouble, my visit today is to discuss something with Junior Brother, and I'd like to speak with you alone," Wang Tianli said.

"Senior Brother has something to discuss with me?" Yang Ji's gaze flickered and he looked at him once before walking into the great hall together.

Inside the main hall, the two sat facing each other.

"May I ask the reason for Senior Brother's visit?" Yang Ji asked softly.

"I'll get straight to the point. I'm here to propose an exchange for the Humanoid Weapon in Junior Brother's possession," Wang Tianli said with a smile.

"Senior Brother wishes to exchange for my Humanoid Weapon?" Yang Ji asked with a stern expression.

"I know this is abrupt, but please don't refuse just yet. I want to ask you a question first," Wang Tianli said, "Do you have any ambitions on your path of cultivation?"

Yang Ji didn't know why he asked this question, but after some thought, he replied, "Junior Brother doesn't have any great ambitions, currently I just wish to become a True Disciple."

"What does being a True Disciple amount to? Without becoming a Daoist, it's all for naught," Wang Tianli suddenly said earnestly, "Junior Brother, do you know why, among the million disciples of the Dao Sect, there are only ten Daoists?"

"Is it because the Sect limits the number of Daoists? No."

"Is it because the Sect's assessments are too difficult? Also, no."

"True Disciples inherit the Dao Techniques of the Sect, whereas the reason Daoists have the word 'Dao' is because their techniques directly originate from the Three Thousand Grand Daos."

"Before ascending to the Immortal Realm, you have two chances to delve into the Great Dao's Origin, to see the Three Thousand Grand Daos in their most primal form—these two opportunities are chances to go against the heavens and change one's fate."

"The first time is during the stage of Void Refining when hearing the Dao, when your Pure Yang Primordial Spirit and the Great Dao's Immortal Body merge, you will be able to see the Origin of heaven and earth, to witness the very primitive form of the Three Thousand Grand Daos."

"But the Great Dao is too precious; do you think it's that easy to catch a glimpse of?"

"When you delve deeply into a Great Dao, you will encounter a Dao Calamity. The humanoid Slaying Tribulation that the Great Dao transforms into is too terrifying—nearly invincible at its level. You must defeat it to continue contemplating the Dao's Origin within the three days of hearing the Dao."

"During these three days, every moment is extremely precious. To defeat the Dao Calamity quickly, you need to be strong enough, invincible at your level."

"Only by slaying a Dao Calamity can you continue to contemplate the Origin of the Great Dao. If you can't kill it, then the three days of hearing the Dao will be wasted, and you will also lose your Daoist status."

"Yes, only by slaying a Dao Calamity and absorbing the Great Dao's Origin, are you qualified to become a Daoist—this is a strict requirement."

"If you have greater ambitions, then what does being a Daoist count for?"

"When you hear the Dao, all Three Thousand Origins present themselves before you—what a mad scene is that? Can you resist the urge to contemplate just one Great Dao?"

"But if you contemplate two Great Daos, then two Dao Calamities will appear at the same time, two humanoid Dao Calamities invincible at their level battling you. That scene is too intense and terrifying."

"I consider myself invincible at my level and have only managed to kill three Dao Calamities and obtained merely three kinds of Origin Great Daos?"

"Merely?" Yang Ji was stunned upon hearing this; it was the first time he learned that such conditions were required to become a Daoist, which amounted to battling against the heavens.

At this point, Wang Tianli smiled and said, "Junior Brother, to pass the Dao Calamity, you need an invincible body, invincible Primordial Spirit, invincible techniques, and invincible Magical Treasures."

"The reason I was able to successfully kill three Dao Calamities back then is that my 'Three Immortals Formation' played a role that accounted for nearly thirty percent of the accomplishment."

"I deployed the Three Immortals Formation using my own clone, unleashing nearly three times my own strength, which allowed me to obliterate three humanoid Dao Calamities."

"Of course, my formidable Dao Devices and techniques also played a significant role," he said.

"Junior Brother, if you wish to slay the Dao Calamity, powerful Magical Treasures are indispensable; every aspect must not be weak—it's the only way to have a chance at overcoming the Dao Calamity," he said.

"As for the second time that one can clearly see the origin of the Great Dao, that is when breaking through to Mahayana, and I am currently preparing for the proof of Mahayana," he said.

"Telling you so much, actually, I just want to use the Supreme Dao Level Formation 'Three Immortals Formation' in my hand to exchange for the Humanoid Weapon in Junior Brother's possession," he said.

Wang Tianli laughed as he spoke.

"Supreme Dao Level Formation? Senior Brother, wouldn't you be at a loss exchanging such a high-level Formation with me?" Yang Ji's eyes flashed as he looked at him and said.

"At my level of cultivation, even a slight enhancement in strength does not count as a loss," Wang Tianli laughed and said, "In fact, I have quite a number of Body Refining and Divine Cultivation techniques in my hands, but the Humanoid Weapon that Junior Brother has is also of research value to me; that is the main reason I've come to make the exchange."

"Junior Brother, if you learn the Three Immortals Formation, it should not be difficult for you to become a True Disciple," he said.

Yang Ji looked at him and suddenly asked, "Right, Senior Brother, what are the conditions for becoming a True Disciple?"

"True Disciples, huh, it's a grand battle royale. All the Sects and Clans send all the Divine Transforming Early Stage Cultivators who want to become True Disciples into a large Secret Realm, gathering the geniuses and experts of the entire Taichu World. The Dao Sect, Demon Sect, Hundred Clans—all Sects, all clans, and experts from all the major races are present.

With so many experts competing for the limited True Disciple spots, the intensity is exceptional," he said.

"The Secret Realm is fraught with danger. To become a True Disciple involves luck, strength, and also the means of making connections. Junior Brother, you will understand when the time comes," he said.

"However, just remember one thing—power is never out of fashion. When you crush everything with absolute strength, the True Disciple spot is yours," Wang Tianli laughed and said, "And this Three Immortals Formation that I have will escort you and increase your chances of success by thirty percent."

"What do you think, Junior Brother? Are you willing to exchange techniques with me?" he asked.

As he spoke, he slowly took out a Jade Slip.

Yang Ji glanced at it—[Supreme Dao Level Formation, Three Immortals Formation].

"Exchange!" Yang Ji was very decisive; there was no reason not to. Just for the word "Supreme" alone, it was worth the exchange. If the Three Immortals Formation could enhance his strength, what couldn't be exchanged?

"Haha, Junior Brother is straightforward!" Hearing this, Wang Tianli could not help but laugh, "Don't worry, Junior Brother; you will definitely not be at a loss with this exchange."

Yang Ji nodded and immediately exchanged Jade Slips with him.

After Wang Tianli received the Jade Slip with a smile, he looked at Yang Ji and added, "By the way, Junior Brother, you only have a medium-grade Spiritual Root. I forgot to tell you, the lower the grade of Spiritual Root, the more formidable the Dao Calamity encountered, with barely any precedents of success below the Spiritual Body level."

Yang Ji's expression immediately became solemn as he asked, "Why is that?"

Wang Tianli said, "It's because the closer one is to the Great Dao, the weaker their Dao Calamity is. It's like this for those with a Taoist Body. On the contrary, with a medium-grade Spiritual Root, not close to the Great Dao, if you wish to grasp the origin of the Great Dao, then you, disliked by the Great Dao, will encounter the strongest Dao Calamity."

"That's equivalent to Mahayana taking direct action against you, with no chance of victory."

Damn, even the Great Dao discriminates? Yang Ji was stunned.

Seeing Yang Ji's expression, Wang Tianli couldn't help but laugh and said, "Don't be annoyed, Junior Brother; once your Spiritual Root is enhanced to the Supreme grade, the Dao Calamity you face will be much weaker, and you will still have a chance."

"Of course, if you can find some heaven-defying treasures to raise your Spiritual Root to the level of Spirit Body Aptitude or even Holy Body Aptitude, that would be the best," he said.
