Chapter 15: Complements technique

The battle of life and death that followed Meng Zhang's entry into the Trial Ground was the most perilous and exhilarating one yet. His soul power had condensed into armor that was now riddled with countless holes, almost resembling tattered cloth. Although the armor had mitigated most of the damage, many sword and knife wounds still appeared on Meng Zhang's soul.

The yin soldiers who deployed the battle formation were clearly different from scattered soldiers. Forming up in battle formations greatly increased their combat effectiveness. In particular, the leader of this team of yin soldiers, let's call him the team leader, not only had much greater strength than ordinary yin soldiers, but also excelled at harnessing the power of battle formations to fully display his own abilities.

During the battle, Meng Zhang faced many dangers. There were several moments where he thought he was going to die. He didn't know if he would have another chance if his soul scattered in the Netherworld. But in the end, Meng Zhang persevered, becoming the ultimate victor and enjoying the spoils of war.

In the Trial Ground, the winner takes all. After killing the team leader, an unprecedented surge of power flowed into Meng Zhang's body. His soul, which had been flickering, immediately stabilized and began to strengthen.

This victory was of great significance to Meng Zhang. It meant that from now on, he had the power to directly confront the yin soldiers' battle formations. As long as the number of yin soldiers in the team wasn't too high, he wouldn't have to retreat.

Emboldened, Meng Zhang consciously expanded the scope of his exploration. After learning the Wayfinding Technique, he no longer had to worry about getting lost. After eliminating another team of yin soldiers and crossing a considerable distance, he discovered a heavily guarded area.

The yin soldiers guarding this place were obviously much stronger and more elite than the others. Meng Zhang judged that there must be a valuable treasure here. Instead of recklessly charging in, he proceeded cautiously, preparing to clear the yin soldiers guarding the perimeter.

However, before he could act, his time in the Trial Ground was up, and he was expelled.

This time, Meng Zhang benefited greatly from eliminating a large number of yin soldiers. But as his soul grew stronger, the yin qi that invaded his physical body after his Divine Soul Return to the Body became increasingly difficult to expel. During the day, Meng Zhang had to spend more time circulating the Lesser Yang True Qi to completely eliminate the yin qi in his body.

Of course, everything Meng Zhang paid was worth it. Among the knowledge he gained this time was some content related to the Lesser Yang Qi Art. Originally, because the technique was incomplete, there were several bottlenecks that he couldn't overcome, and his cultivation base had been stuck at the fourth level of Refining Qi for some time.

However, with his talent and understanding, these bottlenecks couldn't hold him back for too long. He estimated that in a year and a half at most, he would be able to break through and reach a higher cultivation level.

The knowledge he obtained about the Lesser Yang Qi Art this time completed the incomplete technique and solved a major problem. The Refining Qi chapter of the "Lesser Yang Qi Art" was now almost complete, and there were no longer any obstacles to his cultivation base.

Meng Zhang speculated that it was only by killing the team leader that he was able to obtain such a large gain. He summarized the rules of the Trial Ground: killing ghosts can provide knowledge related to cultivation; killing ordinary yin soldiers can provide unique skills and spells; killing yin soldiers' team leaders can provide relatively complete cultivation techniques. As for higher-level ghosts, he had yet to encounter any.

Indeed, the Trial Ground established during the Taiyi Sect's heyday contained knowledge that covered everything and anything. Even if one were to use it to establish a new sect, it would be more than enough. Meng Zhang became very curious about the Taiyi Sect during its heyday.

The Taiyi Sect during its heyday was truly remarkable, to be able to leave such a legacy through such means. The secrets hidden within the destruction of such a powerful sect gave Meng Zhang a chilling feeling. Those distant events were not something that the current Meng Zhang could concern himself with, as his thoughts remained focused on the present.

After patiently waiting for a day, Meng Zhang entered the Trial Ground again as night fell. It was another thrilling and dangerous night. Following his plan, Meng Zhang cautiously cleared the outer yin soldiers' team. He slowly lured the enemy and tried to disperse the yin soldiers' teams as much as possible, reducing the number of enemies he faced each time. As he hunted down more and more yin soldiers, his strength grew stronger, and he could face large numbers of yin soldiers with ease.

Before leaving the Trial Ground that night, Meng Zhang barely managed to clear the outer perimeter and began to gradually move deeper into the heavily guarded area. During the day, after circulating the Lesser Yang True Qi to eliminate the yin qi in his body, Meng Zhang began to organize the Hidden Scripture Pavilion. The small sects like the Taiyi Sect established the Hidden Scripture Pavilion, which was nothing more than a small library that stored a few books on cultivation techniques, spell books, and some cultivation insights left by predecessors. As for knowledge related to the hundreds of arts of cultivation, there was almost none, except for a book on the Spirit Plant Technique.

Meng Zhang recorded all the knowledge he obtained from the Trial Ground during this period and organized it into a book. Seeing several thick books added to the Hidden Scripture Pavilion, Meng Zhang was filled with joy. This was the foundation of a sect. With these books, not only could disciples increase their knowledge, but in the future, the sect might be able to cultivate tool refiners, alchemists, and formation masters.

In the Cultivation World, the most common profession was a spirit farmer. The entry requirements for spirit farming were low, but high-level spirit farmers were still relatively rare. Even the Daoist Clear Spirit in the Taiyi Sect, who had the highest attainments in the Spirit Plant Technique, was only a first-rank spirit farmer.

When Meng Zhang handed the book containing the knowledge of the Spirit Plant Technique to Daoist Clear Spirit, he didn't even have the leisure to inquire about the book's origin, as he focused all his attention on it. He believed that with this book, Daoist Clear Spirit's mastery of the Spirit Plant Technique would surely improve significantly.

Daoist Clear Spirit's reaction made Meng Zhang realize the true value of obtaining knowledge from the Trial Ground. In addition to this knowledge, Meng Zhang also obtained two cultivation techniques from the Trial Ground - the "Fusing Gold Art" and the "Fifth Earth True Secrets." Although they were slightly lower in level than the Lesser Yang Qi Art, they were rare superior cultivation techniques that far exceeded the Taiyi Sect's collection of common techniques.
