Chapter 446: Unexpected Solicitation (2)

However, Zhou Jing recalled the case of the Explorer course and felt that even with this superpower, it was just the icing on the cake.

This was because in the many Astral Realms, the race of explorers and the natives themselves were different. It was obvious at a glance. Moreover, having rich superpowers was also a prominent characteristic of explorers.

In addition, the astral world also had a restriction on the compatibility of different supernatural powers. For example, the Great Divination of the Heavenly Origin could detect the difference between outsiders and natives in this world, but it might lose its effect in other worlds. The same applied to other methods.

“However, this is the only plane in the main world that is about to converge. If I can learn this divination technique, I can easily find them in the crowd when the explorers enter… Assuming that Mt Qingliang Daoist isn’t lying to me.”

Zhou Jing’s mind raced.

However, why did this Daoist tell him his fate so frankly? His intentions were unknown.

Zhou Jing’s mind raced as he nodded,

“I see… However, no matter how strange my fate is, I’m still me. I don’t mind. However, this matter should be a secret that has been passed down for generations in Mt Qingliang. I wonder why you told me so easily? Could it be that someone with a fate like me has something special?”

Hearing this, Miao Xuzi’s expression turned serious as he solemnly spoke,

“My sect’s ancestor once said that he had reservations back then and could not get to know someone with such a fate. It’s really a pity, so he left a message to inform the descendants of the future generations that if they encounter someone with such a fate again, they have to get to know him.”

“Then, they could observe and study it up close right…”

Zhou Jing complained to himself.

So this was Mt Qingliang’s style of “doing scientific research”?

If in the future, when the explorers came in and came into contact with Mt Qingliang, the explorers would also learn of the technique. Then, the explorers would mistakenly think that his apostles were one of them…

Well, there were pros and cons. There was no need to pretend to be a native to throw off the explorers. Instead, if he let himself be mistaken for an Explorer, he could blend in deeper. Perhaps he could understand the internal situation of the explorers better and even deceive them.

“However, that will only work if the Explorer is proficient in the Great Divination of the Heavenly Origin. Explorers are not like my apostles who have Accelerated Learning. I wonder how long it will take for them to learn it and use it normally. Perhaps they will have to immerse themselves in it for decades like Miao Xuzi claims.”

Zhou Jing silently noted this down.

At this moment, Miao Xuzi took a deep breath and changed the topic,

“The Perfected One is astonishingly talented and has mastered your cultivation without a teacher. However, even if he has such talent, it’s still twice as hard to figure it out behind closed doors. I wonder if you have any thoughts to spread your techniques for reference, allowing more to innovate and come out with improvements…”

Zhou Jing raised his eyebrows, “What do you mean?”

Miao Xuzi suddenly stood up and bowed solemnly,

“There’s one more thing I want to visit you for. I want to invite you to my Righteous Heart Sect to be a Dao leader in the same generation as myself.”

He had a few missions for visiting Ning Tian this time. One was to investigate Zhou Jing’s cultivation and see if it matched the rumors and if there were any signs of him originating from the evil sects.

The second was to follow the orders of his sect and befriend such a person with no karma nor fate.

As for the reason, of course, it was not only because of his deceased ancestors.

Those in Mt Qingliang believed in fate and often looked at the stars. They realized that the Emperor Star was swaying and felt that a chaotic world was about to appear. They felt that most people with such a fate were actually blessed with great fate and would definitely achieve something in this chaotic world. Therefore, they placed a bet in advance to ensure that their Daoist sect would first obtain a person with fate.

Thirdly, he had taken a fancy to Zhou Jing’s Wind Summoning Technique.

Of course, their Righteous Heart Sect was a sect belonging to the righteous path and did not snatch things by force. Coincidentally, this Perfected Master Windwalker did not belong to any sect, so he planned to recruit this person and make everyone his disciple.

It was not a conspiracy, but a sincere recruitment. This was because Perfected Master Windwalker had the ability to “create his own spells and establish a sect.”

And what was the most important thing about a sect… talent!

As long as they became fellow disciples, the sect would be able to obtain prestige for Perfected Master Windwalker’s future achievements.

If Mt Qingliang wanted the Wind Summoning Technique in Zhou Jing’s hands, they could not be stingy and would teach him their true techniques. This person’s talent was not inferior to the ancestors of the various sects. If he could improve the spells they had inherited and pass them down, the sect would profit even more.

This was a win-win situation!

Zhou Jing was quite surprised. After thinking for a while, he roughly understood the plan of the Righteous Heart Sect. Only then did he realize that this matter seemed to be unexpected and reasonable.

“This Mt Qingliang grasps the name of the orthodox Dao Sect and has taken a fancy to me and my spells. Its actions are fair and square, and it doesn’t mind recruiting outsiders and making an exception to spread their spell techniques to others… It does have some structure of a meritocratic system.”

He secretly analyzed the pros and cons. His eyes flashed as he asked,

“If I don’t join, what will happen?”

Miao Xuzi said honestly, “That’s fine. My Mt Qingliang still wants to form a good relationship with you.”

Zhou Jing pondered for a while before slowly speaking,

“Your Righteous Heart Sect is quite sincere, but I still have to consider this matter carefully. I can’t answer you for the time being. In the meantime, the two of you can stay in Ning Tian for the time being.”

“That should be the case. I hope you can consider it.”

Miao Xuzi immediately agreed.

Both sides chatted in detail for a while more. Miao Xuzi and the other man left behind the address of their residence before bidding farewell.

Zhou Jing watched the two of them leave. He took a sip of tea to moisten his throat, his eyes flickering.

He was quite interested in the inheritance of Mt Qingliang, the Great Divination of the Heavenly Origin and was inclined to steal… ahem, enter the sect to learn it.

As long as he entered the sect, Zheng Xin would let him be of the same generation as the current leader. It was equivalent to taking in a disciple on behalf of his master. His status would be very high and the treatment would not be bad.

Borrowing the name of Righteous Heart Sect would also serve as an increase in his influence. Compared to the background of the “Unaffiliated Daoist”, of course, the authentication of the orthodox Daoist sects was more useful. It was also beneficial to his plan to fool the Emperor. This was equivalent being part of a “reputable organization”.
