Why are the Talismans I Drawn Banned Again?!
Chapter 218 - Chapter 218: Chapter 207 Dayan ArtChapter 218: Chapter 207 Dayan Art
As a veteran in the Capital, Gao Miao had considered the possibility of the Demonic Tao making a swift comeback after being eradicated by the Immortal Sects.
But he hadn’t expected it to be so soon!
Hehuan Sect and Shadow Puppet Sect had been taken down in less than a day, and the Dayan Sect had suddenly emerged!
“Jiang Cheng, are you serious?”
Gao Miao hoped to hear a denial from Jiang Cheng.
But without hesitation, Jiang Cheng replied, “Of course.”
Gao Miao couldn’t understand, “Why? What are you after by establishing a Demon Sect?”
“Since a Demon Sect is bound to return to the Capital, if I establish one in advance and take over the territory, won’t that prevent their return?”
“Hiss, that kind of makes sense… hell no!”
If any Core Formation or Nascent Soul cultivator had said this, Gao Miao might actually have believed it.
But Jiang Cheng was merely at the fifth level of Qi practicing, what territory could he possibly hold?
As a cultivator of the Immortal Sects, Gao Miao’s stance was firm: “Jiang Cheng, if you really intend to establish a Demon Sect, then I can’t let you take these cultivation techniques and secret manuals from Hehuan Sect and Demon Pattern Sect.”
Although cultivators under the rule of the Immortal Sects had the freedom to choose their sect, as the president of the Tongtian Sect’s Talisman Master Association, Gao Miao also had the duty to protect the interests of his own sect.
Allowing a Demon Sect to grow was definitely not a good thing.
However, Gao Miao hadn’t anticipated being left speechless by Jiang Cheng’s words.
“Senior Gao, we came here to snatch the secret manuals, isn’t that something tacitly approved by the higher-ups? If there’s an issue, it’s on them, not on the two Dayan Sect cultivators like us.”
“Wait a minute, who did you say is a Dayan Sect cultivator?”
Jiang Cheng answered in confusion, “The two of us, Senior. You haven’t forgotten, have you? When we applied for the arrest warrant, it was you who personally acted as the legal representative of Dayan Sect.”
Damn it!
Gao Miao remembered.
At that time, Jiang Cheng was planning to infiltrate the Shadow Puppet Sect, so he needed the identity of a Tongtian Sect fugitive.
But the Tongtian Sect couldn’t issue a bounty out of thin air; therefore, the Dayan Sect had to be established first so that Jiang Cheng could be listed under its name, and then he could be declared a fugitive.
Since Jiang Cheng had just arrived in the Capital and hadn’t enrolled in local social security, he couldn’t use the fast track to establish a sect.
To not delay Jiang Cheng’s undercover work, Gao Miao took matters into his own hands and applied for a shell sect for Jiang Cheng.
Great, I’ve turned full circle to become the founder of a Demon Sect!
Jiang Cheng handed Gao Miao a Memory Sphere, saying, “Senior Gao, go photograph the Blood Fiend Sect’s cultivation techniques, and be quick about it.”
Gao Miao struggled internally. He felt that once he started helping Jiang Cheng, he would continue to be sucked into doing more tasks, eventually getting trapped by Jiang Cheng and finding it impossible to disentangle himself.
This couldn’t go on!
“Jiang Cheng, this is wrong!” Gao Miao reprimanded loudly.
Jiang Cheng, while snapping up cultivation techniques, responded, “What’s wrong with it?”
Gao Miao paused.
Upon closer consideration, he realized that although establishing a Demon Sect was both abstract and outrageous, when asked to pinpoint the problem, it didn’t seem like there was one.
Firstly, Dayan Sect was just a shell sect with nothing really in it, just a ruse to deceive people. It was even legally registered with the Honglu Temple in Liang Kingdom, having paid a registration fee of fifty Spirit Stones.
Next, the act of seizing the Demon Sect’s cultivation techniques had also been discussed with the leaders of Tongtian Sect early on and sanctioned by the higher-ups, so there was no problem there.
Finally, Jiang Cheng himself had the right to freely choose his sect, and no one stipulated that he couldn’t be the Sect Master of Dayan Sect.
All in all, the establishment of Dayan Sect by Jiang Cheng was shrouded in mystery, yet there appeared to be nothing explicitly wrong!
“Uh, you ask what’s wrong, mainly the techniques are not suitable!”
Gao Miao clapped his hands, pinpointing the crux of the issue: “You are Dayan Sect, not Hehuan Sect, Demon Pattern Sect, or Blood Fiend Sect. What use do you have for other sects’ techniques?”
Instead of answering directly, Jiang Cheng posed Gao Miao a question, “Senior Gao, in your opinion, what is the shortest time needed for a sect to nurture a Nascent Soul cultivator?”
This was an easy question to answer because there were real-life examples in the Immortal Sects.
Gao Miao confidently stated, “Twenty-three years! This record has been held by the inaugural Sect Leader of Taixu Sect for eight thousand years, unbeaten till now!”
“No,” Jiang Cheng shook his head, “Our Dayan Sect can raise a Nascent Soul cultivator in an instant.”
When Gao Miao heard Jiang Cheng’s answer, he was dumbfounded.
“Wha… you’re joking, right?”
“I’m not joking. Imagine if there were a sect that could offer you stronger cultivation techniques, more resources, and broader opportunities for growth. Additionally, within this sect, you could legally hold assets, without the need to assume aliases or frequently travel incognito, and without worrying about the Immortal Sects causing trouble. How would you choose?”
Without a second thought, Gao Miao said, “I would switch sects.”
Jiang Cheng nodded approvingly, “That’s the right choice. Those who understand the times are outstanding. Our Dayan Sect can nurture a Nascent Soul cultivator in an instant.”
Isn’t this just poaching talent?
Before Gao Miao could react, Jiang Cheng continued, “The core competitiveness of our Dayan Sect is called ‘Dayan Art,’ but we need to collect enough techniques to perform it.”
Gao Miao asked curiously, “What can be achieved after learning this Dayan Art?”
“It makes one invincible,” Jiang Cheng simply stated.
Invincible?
Goodness, even the closely guarded techniques of the Five Great Immortal Sects didn’t boast such audacity!
Jiang Cheng resumed his busyness, “Senior Gao, the cultivation techniques of Blood Fiend Sect are up to you.”
“Oh, alright.”
…
Through the efforts of Jiang Cheng and Gao Miao, the various cultivation techniques of more than a dozen demonic sects in the Capital were all seized by Dayan Sect.
After carefully studying the techniques of the demonic path, Jiang Cheng understood why there were always those willing to take great risks to “nourish the demon with their own bodies.”
The speed of cultivation of the Demonic Tao techniques far exceeded that of equivalent righteous path techniques.
