Chapter 317: Chapter 246 Heading to Tongtian Sect
Experience proved that nothing is impossible with enough effort.
After Jiang Cheng demanded “If Liu Qing doesn’t go, neither will I,” the Tongtian Sect’s Liang Kingdom subrudder immediately convened a brainstorming session.
The topic of the meeting was how to bring a female cultivator with average talent, no distinguishing features, and not even part of the Tongtian Sect’s system into their ranks.
Jiang Cheng, at least, was a university student with a special talent for talismans, a model for an elite disciple with no issues. Liu Qing, on the other hand, was a blank slate, just like when Jiang Cheng first recruited her, one of the those who knew nothing and had no background.
In the end, it was Dean Jian, a man of vast experience, who proposed a feasible plan— a “family visit visa.”
Jiang Cheng’s requirement was to bring Liu Qing into Tongtian Sect, not to have her accepted as a disciple.
Since it was all about getting her inside, a family visit was much easier than taking on a disciple.
As long as Liu Qing passed the Tongtian Sect’s checks and didn’t have any sensitive identities like demonic cultivators or monsters, she could stay inside the sect with a family visit visa.
Of course, under these circumstances, Liu Qing wouldn’t have the rights of a Tongtian Sect disciple, but Jiang Cheng had no such requirements in the first place. As long as he could bring her inside, it would be a success!
“There’s no issue with your friend, we can find a senior for you. Under the identity of that senior’s relative, we will help her process a family visit pass,”
Gao Miao found Jiang Cheng again to provide him with the latest updates.
Jiang Cheng nodded.
As long as Liu Qing could get in, it didn’t matter whether she was a disciple or not. She wasn’t after the resources within Tongtian Sect and besides, there weren’t many in the sect who could teach her how to cultivate.
Seeing Jiang Cheng’s satisfaction, Gao Miao smiled and asked, “So, Jiang Cheng, when do you plan to depart for Tongtian Sect to meet your master?”
A normal person would have agreed eagerly and rushed off to the Immortal Sect. After all, the opportunity to join an Immortal Sect was precious and delays could lead to unexpected changes!
But Jiang Cheng calmly replied, “I beg your pardon, senior, I have other matters to attend to. Once they’re dealt with, I will go to Tongtian Sect immediately.”
“How long will it take approximately?”
“At shortest, half a year; at longest, a year.”
“What kind of matters do you have?”
Jiang Cheng discussed the situation of the remaining two core disciples of the Dayan Sect with Gao Miao. Originally, they were supposed to go to Tongtian Sect first, and Jiang Cheng would deal with the aftermath, but now the roles were reversed, so he had to prepare for the aftermath in advance.
Gao Miao now understood; all this talk of handling aftermath was an excuse! Jiang Cheng clearly wasn’t content with just bringing one person; he needed to bring two more!
Fortunately, Yue Linger and Shen Menghan were actually much more normal than Jiang Cheng, and their talents were sufficient. Passing the graduation exam to enter Tongtian Sect wouldn’t be a problem. Most importantly, finding them a master didn’t require the same strict “no returns” condition that Jiang Cheng demanded.
In the end, it was Li Ancheng who pulled some strings, asking a Divinity Transformation Realm senior sister who had recently established a Sect and was in need of people to take in two core disciples from the Dayan Sect.
…
After all arrangements were made, it was a done deal for the main forces of Dayan Sect to head to Tongtian Sect.
“I’ll take you to the Gen Mountain Branch first. You’ll use the teleportation array there to go directly to the second formation hall outside Tongtian Sect. Someone will receive you there,”
On the Flying Boat, Gao Miao patiently explained the situation to Jiang Cheng and the others.
With Jiang Cheng close to leaving Liang Kingdom, they had to be extra careful to avoid any carelessness that could cause complications.
The journey from Liang Kingdom to Gen Mountain Branch required two days and nights of travel by Flying Boat.
During this time, Jiang Cheng and the others would live and cultivate on the Flying Boat.
If they didn’t rely on the teleportation array and instead took the Flying Boat to Tongtian Sect, it would take almost a month. With so many potential risks along the way, it was unknown what incidents could take place. Therefore, despite its cost, the teleportation array was chosen for efficiency and safety.
“Jiang Cheng, we’re about to arrive at the Immortal Sect. I’m a bit nervous. They say every disciple there is a cultivation genius. What if we can’t keep up with the cultivation and get eliminated?”
Yue Linger expressed her and Shen Menghan’s concerns. Compared to Jiang Cheng, although they were excellent students at Lotus University, they wouldn’t be considered outstanding in the Immortal Sect.
Jiang Cheng smiled and replied, “Don’t worry. As long as you don’t majorly screw up, Tongtian Sect doesn’t eliminate disciples. It’s just that if you don’t have a talent for cultivation, you won’t be allocated many resources. However, that mainly depends on your own Sect. Some Sects are wealthy, and their disciples aren’t short on resources. And besides, we’re from the Dayan Sect, with the Dayan Sect’s cultivation methods, so we won’t fall behind in cultivation. What’s there to fear?”
Yue Linger looked at the calm faces of Jiang Cheng and Liu Qing and asked in wonder, “Why aren’t you two nervous at all?”
Jiang Cheng didn’t know if Liu Qing was nervous, but he was definitely a bit anxious.
That’s because Tongtian Sect had security checks, and if the checks were too effective and Liu Qing got exposed, it would be the end of the line.
But it shouldn’t come to that, as Liu Qing was a Mahayana cultivator. To detect a Mahayana’s magical treasures, formations, and talismans, the equipment would need to be at least at the eighth order.
What did that mean? It meant that a Mahayana cultivator would need to stand at the entrance with a magical treasure and act as a security machine.
Not to mention that Tongtian Sect was vast, there wouldn’t just be one entrance.
Although there were many Mahayana cultivators in Tongtian Sect, who among them wasn’t a powerhouse in their own right? Would they have the spare time to stand guard at an entrance every day?
To have a Mahayana cultivator standing at the entrance with magical treasures was like using a nuclear bomb to kill a mosquito.
As long as the mosquito didn’t show itself, it could wear down a force that continuously maintained a large number of nuclear bombs.
Jiang Cheng’s speculation was soon confirmed when they arrived at the Gen Mountain Branch’s teleportation array, which had a magical treasure inspection device to evaluate whether the cultivators using the teleportation array posed any risks.
