Chapter 789: Chapter 762: Enlightenment Flower
"The interests of the Sect are supreme."
"The Great Master is the one and only true god in my heart."
"I pledge my loyalty to the Sect and the Great Master, and I am willing to be a sword that removes all obstacles for the Great Master."
Xu Fan nodded in approval as he watched the group of demons under Pangolin's leadership reciting the slogans.
Not bad, the taste seems to be correct.
"Master, isn't this a bit fake~" Xu Yuexian said awkwardly.
"Let it be for now. The more we say it, the truer it may become."
The main reason Xu Fan appointed Pangolin as the supervisor was for the sake of the next generation of the Demon Division.
The goal was to brainwash the newly born demons and make them loyal to the Hidden Spirit Sect.
After all, he still had 1000 years left in the Cultivation World; a time that could be considered both long and short.
In 1000 years, a group of fiercely loyal demons to the Sect could be cultivated.
Xu Yuexian nodded, not quite understanding.
"I can only stay in this world for at most 1000 years!"
"So, I am planning to take the entire sect to the Upper Realm when I ascend. This is just part of the early arrangements." Xu Fan said with a smile.
"In 1000 years, Master, you must take us with you when you ascend." Xu Yuexian said.
"If you are willing to follow me, I will definitely take you with me. It is also fine if you wish to stay in this world."
"When the time comes, I will leave a legacy in the lower realm, so that our Hidden Spirit Sect won't lose its roots in this world." With that, Xu Fan took Xu Yuexian and left the Demon Division.
In the Hidden Spirit Gate Origin Realm, Xu Fan was explaining and resolving doubts for his disciples.
"Master, I feel that I am about to reach the Tribulation Passage stage." Xu Gang said.
Li Xingci also said that he was about to reach the Tribulation Passage stage as well.
Xu Fan looked at his good disciples below and nodded slightly, feeling that they had also reached the right moment.
In recent years, the Sect has gained various cultivation sacred lands, and even the Immortal Spirit Qi can be supplied to the entire Hidden Spirit Sect with Xu Fan's efforts in wool-gathering.
So, in recent times, whether it was his several disciples or the lower-level disciples, their cultivation realm progressed at an incredibly rapid pace.
"The two of you have indeed reached the right moment; there is no need to suppress it any longer." Xu Fan nodded and said.
"There's no need for the master to help us with the Tribulation. We can handle it on our own." Xu Gang and Li Xingci said.
At this time, Wang Xiangchi's expression was somewhat melancholic.
In these years of cultivation, it seemed as if he had hit a bottleneck. Even with the guidance of a heaven-defying master, he felt that his Sword Dao progressed slowly.
Of course, all of this was seen by Xu Fan, but he didn't intervene.
Sometimes in practicing a Dao, you need to dredge it up.
There are also times when you need to hold back for a while.
Wang Xiangchi's cultivation path belonged to the second type. It was just that this period of holding back was a bit long.
"Xiangchi, seeing that you are so troubled, do you want your Junior Fellow to give you a shot?"
Wang Xiangchi was stunned. What does "give a shot" mean?
"What Master means is to let me cast the Wheel of Reincarnation Divine Power on you, changing how you live and refreshing your mood." Li Xingci explained from the side.
Wang Xiangchi quickly shook his head. The last time he experienced the Wheel of Reincarnation Divine Power, it had left an impression in his heart that eventually transformed into his Heart Demon.
If it happened again, who knows what might happen.
"If you don't want to, it's fine. Cultivation is more about self-enlightenment." Xu Fan advised.
"As your master, I'll teach you the basics of Sword Dao again. Even if you don't practice Sword Dao, you should still listen carefully." Xu Fan then explained the basics of Sword Dao to everyone once again.
From the profound to the superficial, from outside to inside.
Xu Fan made the basics of Sword Dao clear to everyone.
Standing nearby, in addition to Wang Xiangchi who practiced Sword Dao, the other disciples' bodies were faintly revealing a hint of sword intent. With a little more practice, they could enter the realm of Sword Dao.
Although Wang Xiangchi gained something, it was not enough for him to break through his current barrier.
Under the bright moon, in Wang Xiangchi's small courtyard.
Han Feiyu and Wang Xiangchi enjoyed wine while admiring the moon.
"Master, I see you've been troubled lately. Did you encounter a barrier in your Sword Dao realm?"
Han Feiyu picked up the wine pot and poured a glass for his master.
"Although I don't want to admit it, it's indeed true." Wang Xiangchi looked at the bright moon in the sky and said.
With a casual swing of his sword, he slashed towards the bright moon in the sky.
A moonlight sword light pierced through the hole in the grapevine designed specifically for sword light in the big formation and flew towards the high altitude.
It then exploded, turning into specks of moonlight in the sky.
"My Sword Dao has met a bottleneck. Even though I know how to break through the next step, I just can't..."
Wang Xiangchi said, picking up his wine glass and draining it.
Being a good disciple, Han Feiyu looked at his troubled master.
He thought for a moment, took out a Fairy Jade Basin the size of a water tank, and planted an extremely gorgeous and dreamy purple spiritual flower in the spiritual soil.
"Is this an Enlightenment Flower?"
Wang Xiangchi was unsure.
"I heard that as long as you absorb the wood essence of the Enlightenment Flower, you have a chance to break through the bottleneck. Master, you can give it a try." Han Feiyu said, he had dozens more of these Enlightenment Flowers, which he was just casually nurturing in the Dao Artifact Palace.
"Don't bother, you can use it yourself."
"Your Master Ancestor said that I should suppress this bottleneck for a while. The longer I hold it back, the bigger the explosion will be." Wang Xiangchi declined.
"If Master doesn't need it, then let's keep it in Master's small courtyard as a bonsai."
"It's pleasing to the eye and can purify the mind if you look at it every day."
Han Feiyu had tried it before - watching the Enlightenment Flower sway in the wind, his mind could stay clear for a whole day.
However, with his terrible qualifications, it didn't improve his cultivation in the slightest.
"Take it back. This Enlightenment Flower is beneficial even to Invincible Venerables. In the future, it can help you whether you sell it or use it as a favor." Wang Xiangchi thought for a moment, and although he knew that his good disciple probably had dozens of Enlightenment Flowers, as a master, how could he freeload off his disciple's good stuff.
Han Feiyu nodded and silently put away the Enlightenment Flower.
"What has Master Wuji been up to recently?" Wang Xiangchi asked.
"He's been exterminating the Demon Clan in Primordial Province. He should be back in a while," Han Feiyu said.
"That stinky kid is pretty fierce." Wang Xiangchi laughed.
"I want to join Master Wuji in exterminating the Demon Clan soon. I hope you'll allow me." Han Feiyu said.
He had stayed in the sect for too long this time and had the urge to go out and explore.
"Go ahead. It's good to go out and have some experience. I'll be leaving too in a while to have some battles, and maybe that would break the bottleneck." Wang Xiangchi thought for a moment and said.
"Master, how about we go together like we used to, just the three of us?" Han Feiyu suggested.
"Never mind. You two rascals are both more talented than the other, and now you're almost catching up to me in Sword Dao. Being with you guys, I'm afraid I won't have any opportunities to practice."
