Be the Hardest Working Demon Cultivator!

"Why would senior say such a thing?" Tan Shuchang said upon hearing the words, couldn't help feeling somewhat astonished, as he considered his own talent for cultivation to be quite impressive. While it's true that his performance in the Sword Dao was not particularly noticeable, that should be because he had yet to encounter a Sword Dao Cultivation Technique that suited him.

Given the unfathomable depth displayed by the senior before him, the Sword Dao that the senior had mastered was definitely capable of teaching him.

Therefore, why must this senior belittle himself so?

Tan Shuchang's thoughts raced rapidly.

However, no matter how fast Tan Shuchang's thoughts were, they could not escape the perception of the white-robed elder. Therefore, the white-robed elder fell silent.

To this inherently lawless Demon Cultivator, who could sincerely call him senior from the bottom of his heart, the white-robed elder was undoubtedly very pleased.

But regarding this Demon Cultivator's belief that the elder was being excessively modest...

Even at the white-robed elder's level of achievement, he couldn't help feeling slightly baffled; could a Cultivator who had reached such a state, and even carved out his own path forward, truly be so lacking in self-awareness?

But upon reflecting on his own past regrets, and why he had those regrets, the white-robed elder involuntarily sighed in his heart—it turned out such people were indeed quite common.

Thus, the white-robed elder shielded his perception of the thoughts within the heart of said Demon Cultivator.

Then, the white-robed elder who did not answer Tan Shuchang, started to speak on his own accord, and what he discussed was indeed the Sword Dao.

As he lectured, not a single extraordinary phenomenon occurred.

Yet, Tan Shuchang, who was within the realm of his lecture, suddenly found himself in an entirely new world. It was as if he had merged with the sky, observing the land below from a unique vantage point.

And then, every scene upon the land came into full view for Tan Shuchang.

He saw a great number of Cultivators practicing the Sword Dao.

This was not surprising, but Tan Shuchang soon witnessed an unexpected scene.

He actually saw Cultivators practicing "Battle Immortal" techniques.

However, among these Cultivators of the "Battle Immortal" pathway, there were no familiar faces. There were neither the Death-speaking Yin God nor the Yin God Scholar, his former two trusted subordinates, nor were there the Black King, Earth Destroyer King, or his disciple by proxy, Dai Huanzhen.

Clearly, this was just a demonstration.

After all, the white-robed elder had reached such a level; even if he focused solely on the Sword Dao, he wouldn't truly let Tan Shuchang come away with nothing, would he? Wouldn't that be a loss of face for him?

When he lectured, even a pig would have to gain some insight into the great Dao!

Thus, following this, Tan Shuchang saw a variety of Cultivation Techniques: those that fused weapons with Body Refinement to create an unparalleled treasure body; those that practiced Formation techniques, integrating one's soul into the Formation and then inscribing it between heaven and earth, becoming an alternative innate Formation, thereby achieving longevity; and those concocting a cauldron of marvelous Immortal Pills, where upon completion of the pills, one's body would transform into a pill, the pill would generate flesh and blood, and then one would attain the Dao and freedom...

An endless array of Cultivation Methods appeared before Tan Shuchang, one by one, as the white-robed elder lectured.

Besides these Immortal Dao techniques, there were also Demon Dao techniques.

However, to call them Demon Dao might not be entirely correct, because, as Meng Xian once said, some of the vicious and ruthless techniques of the Demon Dao were actually considered Righteous Dao techniques in the earliest of times.

Tan Shuchang saw the Blood Blade Demon Sutra, a technique resembling weapon and Body Refinement. Then he saw the myriad souls banner Cultivation Technique, akin to the longevity technique of Formation Dao...

The infamous Demon Skills of the Demon Dao morphed into distinctive paths of cultivation and unfolded in intricate detail before Tan Shuchang.

Among them was even the Nine Sons Mother Heavenly Ghost Skill!

This was a technique similar to dual cultivation of pills and self, yet quite distinct from the Alchemy Dao. Moreover, its difficulty was far greater than that of Alchemy Dao Cultivation Techniques.

Because to fully cultivate the Nine Sons Mother Heavenly Ghost Skill, one first needed to follow the path of ruthlessness to its absolute end.

The true end.

Not the false end that comes after extinguishing all emotions.

After the Demon Dao techniques came those wondrous Cultivation Methods that had briefly flourished in the past, like witch and spirit practices. These Cultivation Methods had also been popular for a time but were eventually phased out because they could not advance through the Heavenly Gang Righteous Law.

Phased out they might be, but the power of these methods was undeniably formidable. They were discarded solely because they couldn't produce a Celestial Master True Immortal, leaving them to disintegrate once the attitudes of the Heavenly Officers towards them shifted.

Heavenly Officers, like stars yet not stars, straddle the void and reality, illuminating myriad beings. The growth, cultivation, reproduction, and reincarnation of any living being cannot be separated from the Heavenly Officers.

Once the Heavenly Officers alter their original attitude toward certain beings, it undoubtedly becomes disastrous for such a species. It's not just about inability to continue cultivation; even the continuation of the species and the issues of reincarnation become problematic.

From that time on, any lineage of a Dao must gain the approval of the Heavenly Officers. The best method to achieve this is to bring forth a Celestial Master True Immortal.

Because the Heavenly Officers and the Celestial Master True Immortals share a community of interests.

By the time Tan Shuchang realized the inexhaustible Cultivation Methods he had witnessed, he found that the white-robed elder had finished his lecture at an unknown point.
