“Mid-grade techniques for Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators?”

Hearing these words, Lin Xuan was suddenly stunned. He looked at the two that were talking. They were both strangers to him. Even though Whirlwind Cloud Valley was only a small, third-rate sect, they still had over a thousand disciples. Lin Xuan, other than being slightly familiar with the others who entered the sect at the same time, did not know most of the other disciples. But from their clothing, it could be seen that they are also two low-level Spirit Condensation disciples.

They just mentioned some Soaring Cloud Sect getting disbanded, and mid-grade techniques. Lin Xuan caught up, greeting aloud, “Fellow disciples.”

“You are…” The two stopped walking and looked at the young man blocking the road with uncertainty.

“I am called Zhao Gang, my honor to meet you,” Lin Xuan’s attitude was very friendly, with a harmless look on his face, because he wanted to find out some information from them.

At the same time, he released his spiritual power, allowing those two to see that he was at the fourth layer of the Spirit Condensation stage. The reason he was being this bold was that they have never met before, and they did not know that he had no Spiritual Roots. The cultivation world followed the law of the jungle and was very hierarchical. If one did not have enough strength, they would not be taken seriously, not to mention inquiring about the current situation.

But Lin Xuan did not play all of his cards, he didn’t give them his real name, he just casually made one up.

These two were also at the Spirit Condensation stage; their cultivation levels were just slightly below Lin Xuan’s. Seeing this more powerful cultivator offering such a friendly greeting, they did not dare ignore him, and quickly and replied with a smile, “No, no, so it’s brother Zhao, I wonder if there is anything senior brother wanted?”

“Senior brother?” Hearing these two calling him that, he secretly laughed. These two were clearly past their thirties, and most likely entered the sect before him, but insisted on treating themselves as the juniors. This would be unthinkable in the past. Lin Xuan once again experienced the superiority of having high spiritual power. It really felt good.

Looking calm, Lin Xuan smiled and asked, “The two brothers are too polite, what should I address you by?”

“I am Li Hai, and this is junior fellow apprentice Chen Feng.”

“Okay, let us go sit!”

“Okay,” The two nodded their agreement. This was not because they were easygoing and were nice and caring of others. But it was because Lin Xuan deliberately released his spiritual power just now, revealing the power of the fourth layer, putting hesitation in their hearts.

This junior fellow apprentice, who was called Zhao Gang, who didn’t look to be over twenty, was already at the peak of the fourth layer, only one step away from the latter Spirit Condensation stages. He must be a genius disciple with excellent Spiritual Roots. This was what these two thought.

Geniuses like this were not only the focuses of the sect elders but also had a great chance of successfully building their Foundation, becoming an even higher leveled cultivator.

That was to say, in the eyes of these two, Lin Xuan had an immeasurable future. These kinds of people could not be given the cold shoulder.

It was hard to see into the hearts of people, but because Lin Xuan was intelligent, he basically understood what they were thinking. Secretly laughing, he also deeply felt the changes brought about by the Blue Star Sea. If not for the fact that he was able to purify trash pills and had the support of all those pills, how could he be mistaken for a genius?

The three of them sat down in a secluded corner and exchanged some pleasantries. But Li Hai ran out of patience and asked, “Brother Zhao, you stopped us, I do not know if you have anything to advise us about?”

“Haha, it’s nothing much, I just heard the two brothers discussing something about the Soaring Cloud Sect disbanding and was curious about it.”

So it was about that! Li Hai was relieved. He adopted a relaxed and somewhat proud expression and said, “I don’t dare say anything else, but in terms of being well informed, I am one of the best in the sect. The news of this situation hasn’t been spread, so it was no wonder that senior brother did not know.”

“Haha, I just wanted to ask about that.”

Generally, when powerful cultivators faced cultivators with lower cultivation, they would all be very arrogant. Li Hai was very impressed by Lin Xuan’s kind and approachable attitude. Therefore, currently, he was telling Lin Xuan a very detailed account of everything he knew about the incident.

There were tens of thousands of sects in the Cultivation World, and Whirlwind Cloud Valley could be considered on the lower end of that scale. In the thousands of cultivators they had, ten percent of them were in the early layers of Spirit Condensation, but they did have almost one hundred Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators as protector elders. At the same time, the Sect Master Yun He was an early Core Formation Stage expert.

This kind of strength wasn’t very strong, but also couldn’t be easily looked down upon. After all, the Sect Master did have cultivation level of the Core Formation stage and was powerful, and the almost a hundred Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators also caused fear in people’s hearts. In this area, they would not be able to seek hegemony or expand easily, but protecting against being supplanted or being bullied was not a problem.

Of course, in a radius of 500 kilometers, it was not possible that the Whirlwind Cloud Valley was the only sect. Excluding rogue cultivators, there were seven or eight various other sects, one of them being the Soaring Cloud Sect.

If Whirlwind Cloud Valley was classified as a third-rate sect in the cultivation world, then the Soaring Cloud sect would be a fourth or even fifth-rate sect. But they had, like Whirlwind Could Valley, over a thousand people, but they had less than twenty Foundation Establishment cultivators, let alone any Core Formation experts; it was impossible for them to have one. Their Sect Master was also only in the Foundation Establishment Stage.

In a sect, the high leveled cultivators made up the power, even if they had more Spirit Condensation disciples, they would be useless in a conflict. Therefore, even though the Soaring Cloud sect had a lot of disciples, their strength was still far from the Whirlwind Cloud Valley.

But it was this tiny sect that, a while ago, offended a Core Formation expert. The specifics of the offense, other than the witnesses, were not too clear to others. But one thing was for sure, the expert was very angry, and said that within one month, he would exterminate every living being in the Soaring Cloud Sect.

With every increase in cultivator level, their strength would rapidly increase, completely different from the level before, and can be said to be a qualitative leap. When facing a Core Formation Stage enemy, even if the sect had the most Spirit Condensation disciples, they would still be all useless, they couldn’t even be cannon fodder. And only relying on those Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators would be like a mantis trying to stop a cart and only result in failure.

So to the Soaring Cloud sect, this was a catastrophe.

For this kind of tiny sect, it was impossible for them to find a strong helping hand. After a series of efforts and many considerations, the Soaring Cloud Sect finally made a painful and helpless choice to disband. This was the only way to survive total extermination.

Nascent Soul is but a legend and the realms above it lost to the the long river of time. The modern era is known as Cultivation Civilization, a balance of power and civility, excess and moderation.
