NOVEL ONLINE FREE Chapter 137: "Riddled with Holes.
"Our predecessors carved out the reputation of Chao Tian Sect on the Xuantian Continent tens of thousands of years ago,"
"And since I have inherited the position of Sect Master of Chao Tian Sect,"
"Naturally, I cannot diminish this reputation."
Chen Qiu paused, then turning his head to gaze into the distance, he whispered softly, "Chen Qiu, the Sect Master of Chao Tian Sect, when he passed through that Heavenly Dao Secret Realm at the time, no one told me that being the Sect Master of Chao Tian Sect involved so many matters."
Actually.
Many things were already beyond his decision-making ability. At the time of the preliminary screening of the Heavenly Pride in the Secret Realm, he had not known that the name of Chao Tian Sect carried such a significant reputation, nor had he any misgivings.
Many Heavenly Prides had remembered the name Chen Qiu, Sect Master of Chao Tian Sect.
And with the shadow that Chao Tian Sect left on the Xuantian Continent tens of thousands of years ago, although so much time had passed and many had forgotten the name, as long as one searched the historical records, one could find the familiar name of Chao Tian Sect.
And he, as the new Sect Master,
had managed to make countless powers on the Xuantian Continent remember the name of Chao Tian Sect again, even before setting foot on the Continent.
...
Three hours later.
Chen Qiu once again stood at the entrance of this Ancient Ruin, patting his hands with a bit of fatigue. The passage through the Ancient Ruin was extremely deep; dismantling all these steps was not an easy task.
It took them several people a full three hours to dismantle all the stones that could block Divine Sense.
These were good materials.
Not to be wasted.
At this point, the stones had already been piled into a small mountain behind the Chao Tian Sect, and if one did not count the scrolls, these stones were his only haul from the trip—oh, and the Little Wolf.
A Golden Core Fifth Layer enforcer was considered not bad.
But compared to being an enforcer, he preferred to treat it as a pet, as it was still in its juvenile stage. Although its cultivation was not weak, it was still hard to regard it as a combative force that could fight on the battlefield.
The dissonance was too strong.
At this moment, many Cultivators had gathered at the entrance to the Ancient Ruins. After dismantling all the steps, Chen Qiu casually unleashed a few Thunder Summoning Techniques to seal the entrance. To enter again, one would need to first clear the entrance of the collapse.
In fact, he wasn't worried about someone else going down there.
Not to mention that there was actually nothing below; the only useful scrolls were in the chamber that could only be opened with the Sect Leader Token, and he had put those scrolls into his Storage Ring.
The poisonous gas alone down there would prevent anyone from entering.
But...
He still habitually blocked the entrance. It's like knowing no one can see you when you're not wearing underwear because your trousers block the view, but you'd still feel unnatural.
...
It was nearing dusk at this time.
After finishing all this, Chen Qiu returned to the inn in Fei City. After chatting together for a while, they all continued to cultivate separately.

While Chen Qiu and the Scholar were cultivating in their separate rooms.
Soon, it was the hour of the Rat.
Ten Golden Core Heavenly Dao Cultivation Pills credited his account again, and Chen Qiu, seated cross-legged on the bed, took out a Cultivation Pill and put it into his mouth in a practiced manner, activated his mental method, and calmed his spirit to absorb the medicinal properties within the Cultivation Pills.
An entire night of diligent cultivation.
At dawn, Chen Qiu exhaled a breath of turbid air, turned his head to the window covered in snow. It had snowed throughout the night and continued until dawn; it was the second snowfall of the winter this year.
This heavy snow finally brought a touch of winter to this year's season.
He practiced introspection above his Dantian to his Cultivation panel, and his own cultivation had finally reached—
-
'Cultivation': Golden Core Stage Fourth Layer (5.3%).
-
"Hmm?"
Chen Qiu slightly raised his eyebrows. At the Golden Core Third Layer, one Heavenly Dao Cultivation Pill only increased his Cultivation Progress by 3%. He had thought that at the Golden Core Fourth Layer, one Heavenly Dao Cultivation Pill would only add 2% to his Cultivation Progress.
Unexpectedly, it was still 3%.
This was beyond his expectations.
It means he could break through to the Golden Core Fifth Layer quicker than anticipated.
This "Heavenly Pride Leaderboard" would last for a full year, meaning he could claim ten Golden Core Heavenly Dao Cultivation Pills every day for a year. Alas, they must be claimed in batches daily.
If only they could be credited all at once.
He then introspected inside his Dantian where, after his breakthrough in cultivation, the familiar yet long-absent panel reappeared, shrouded in mist.
-
'Your Cultivation has increased significantly, formally stepping into the Golden Core Stage Fourth Layer.'
'Please choose one of the three random entries below within ten breaths.'
1:
'Entry Name': Acting on behalf of Heaven
'Entry Level': Blue.
'Entry Effect': You can design a Heavenly Dao Secret Realm that can only be entered by those with a Golden Core cultivation level or below, at the cost of three hundred years of lifespan. There is a certain probability of success, but if it is too unfair, it will not succeed.
2:
'Entry Name': Command of the Dying Admonition
'Entry Level': Blue.
'Entry Effect': You can alter a person's subconscious memory at the cost of ten years of lifespan. Depending on the complexity of the memory alteration, the cost in lifespan will increase.
3:
'Entry Name': Clean Death
'Entry Level': Yellow.
'Entry Effect': Upon your death, everyone will forget your name, and all traces of you, including scrolls, historical records, and Jade Scrolls that record your existence, will be automatically erased.
-
"..."
Chen Qiu frowned in thought, silent; the three randomly assigned entries were of little use to him this time.
