```Yang Ji and his group left the Dao Tower and, through the Teleportation Array, went to the Alchemy Hall to claim their Medicine Pills.
All of them were at the peak of the Golden Core, and after passing the first assessment, they were eligible to receive a First-Transformation Golden Pill for consumption.
The Dao Sect truly lived up to its name, with great magnanimity and profound heritage.
Disciples like them, who had merely passed the first assessment, could count on an ample supply of Medicine Pills.
The elder, after testing your Spiritual Root and the Cultivation Technique you practiced, would estimate how many Medicine Pills you could assimilate within a year, and he would always add one or two bottles more to this estimate.
It was indeed an unlimited supply, as long as you could assimilate and absorb quickly enough.
Considering that the Dao Sect has a million disciples and can still afford such generosity, it's evident how substantial the Sect's foundations are.
Yang Ji felt for a moment that a First-Transformation Golden Pill could provide him with about 300 Cultivation Points each day.
However, this was quite inferior to the Nine-Transformation Golden Pill he obtained under the sea's waterfall, which could provide him with 700 Cultivation Points daily.
But once he broke through to the Nascent Soul Realm, he would be eligible to receive the Nine-Transformation Golden Pill. Now that he had obtained the technique, that day was not far off.
In addition to the Nine-Transformation Golden Pill, the Dao Sect had other items like the Nascent Soul Pill, Divine Transformation Pill, and above them, the Immortal Spirit Pill—all of which were excellent Medicine Pills for advancing one's cultivation.
However, Yang Ji's current strength was insufficient, so he was not yet eligible to receive them.
But if he found cultivation too slow, he could take on some tasks to earn Sect Contribution Points and use them to claim these items.
Similarly, Sect Contribution Points could also be exchanged for Cultivation Techniques, Divine Skills, Magical Treasures, and more, making them immensely useful.
Although the Dao Sect was powerful with a strong heritage, its resources were not inexhaustible.
With a million disciples, it was impossible to lavish vast amounts of resources on every single one for their cultivation. Even a landlord's surplus would not withstand such profligacy.
Therefore, the Sect distributed resources in the form of Contribution Points, also serving as an indirect incentive for its disciples to zealously advance their cultivation.
After all, the resources are there for you to see. If you have the capability, then you come and get them.
Such a cultivation platform is unique to the Dao Sect. Elsewhere, even with the strength, there might be nowhere to apply it, and even with Spirit Stones, one might not be able to make the purchase.
After receiving their Medicine Pills, Yang Ji and the others went to the Personnel Hall to collect their Sect uniforms and other items. They then returned to their residence.
In the palace, inside the room.
Yang Ji began to check the items he received.
The Wuji Purple Robe, although only a Supreme Magic Tool and not too high-grade, carried immense significance. Wearing it and walking outside, major powers would recognize you as a person of the Wuji Dao Sect and treat you with respect. It was a symbol of identity, of great importance.
The Life and Death Talisman was crucial for moments of life-threatening crisis. Crushing the talisman would alert fellow disciples within a certain range, who carried the same talisman.
This talisman had great significance. At a critical moment, it might even save your life.
The Myriad Treasures Mirror was a Lower-grade Spiritual Artifact that Yang Ji valued the most, for its numerous functions.
The mirror functioned like an ipad tablet, allowing one to check the Contribution Points required for exchanging various treasures within the Sect. It also contained the contact information for the Sect's million disciples.
At the moment, Yang Ji entered the name "Li Changxiao" and an attractive, smiling avatar popped up, with a note next to it: [Currently in seclusion, please leave a message if it is urgent.]
Yang Ji immediately smiled and typed a string of text: [Your junior brother has arrived.] Sёarch* The NôᴠeFire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
[Message received. I will reply as soon as possible.]
Seeing this, Yang Ji chuckled and then entered another string of text in the search box: [Items that can enhance one's Spiritual Root.]
Shua!
The screen of the Myriad Treasures Mirror changed instantly, displaying many items and their descriptions.
Seeing so many treasures that could enhance the Spiritual Root, Yang Ji felt a surge of joy. However, his face fell as he looked over them:
Spirit Cleansing Pill[Extremely in demand, sold out. Wait for further notice from the Alchemy Hall.]
Spirit Enhancing Pill[Extremely in demand, sold out. Wait for further notice from the Alchemy Hall.]
Spirit Creation Pill[Extremely in demand, sold out. Wait for further notice from the Alchemy Hall.]
Earth Spirit Milk[Sold out]—This one was greyed out directly, suggesting it was a one-time use Spiritual Object, a rare encounter that would be gone once used up.
Nine Springs Spiritual Water[Currently being collected. Available for exchange in 300 years.]
Oak Spirit Fruit[Sold out. Next harvest in 500 years.]
Holy Blossom Fruit[Sold out. Next harvest in 800 years.]
...
Extreme Spirit Pill[Extremely in demand, sold out. Wait for further notice from the Alchemy Hall.]
[Friendly reminder: To avoid missing the chance to exchange, please check the Myriad Treasures Mirror frequently.]
```
Yang Ji was somewhat taken aback, not expecting the spiritual objects that could improve one's Spiritual Root to be so sought after. He had been looking forward to exchanging some spiritual objects to enhance his own Spiritual Root, but these people seemed even more aggressive than him.
Suddenly, a sense of crisis that he hadn't felt in a long time surged in his heart, as if he was back in Canglan City, where countless unaffiliated cultivators were squatting at various shops to buy high-level Spiritual Medicines and Medicine Pills.
As soon as they appeared, they would be snapped up, leaving no chance for him to make a move.
He sighed lightly,
"I should have thought of this. The Spiritual Root is of utmost importance. If one's comprehension is not up to par, then a good Spiritual Root is the only possibility to stay in the Dao Sect as a lifeline. These people are going all out to improve their own talents."
Yang Ji didn't have much to complain about but instead clearly recognized the grim situation.
At this moment, he touched his glabella; the map given to him by Senior Chun Ye had indeed become his treasure.
Holding the Myriad Treasures Mirror, Yang Ji hesitated, then input "Fu Dongliu's" name, but there was no record of such a person.
He had not seen the name Fu Dongliu in the book 'Cultivation World' either, but he knew that a person capable of creating a Humanoid Weapon, a technique of such Daoist level, would be no ordinary individual.
He speculated that Fu Dongliu might be his real name, and there might be records of him in books, but only with a respectful title.
After all, having received his legacy, Yang Ji was quite curious about him.
Having found no information, Yang Ji set it aside and took out the fourth volume of the True Rigidity Divine Art to begin his comprehension.
The urgent task at hand was to break through his realm. Only after his strength advanced to the Nascent Soul Realm would he feel more confident to venture into the Hell Arena and find the location of the Ziyang Tree.
As Divine Sense probed into the Jade Slip containing the cultivation technique, the profound and Dao-filled characters turned into a stream of light flowing into his mind, and he began his comprehension.
Such wholehearted comprehension passed in a flash, taking two years.
Two years later.
The True Qi in Yang Ji's body vibrated wildly; each strand contained limitless energy, which at this moment churned like the overturning of rivers and seas, creating a formidable momentum.
Yang Ji knew that the time had ripened, and the breakthrough to Nascent Soul was at hand. He uttered a low shout in his heart, "Dharma Image of Heaven and Earth, come forth!"
The True Rigidity Divine Art was urged to its limit; its endless mysteries were infused into the True Qi. The True Qi roared and began condensing the True Rigidity Dharma Aspect.
This process was natural and seamless. Yang Ji's accumulation was too profound, his True Qi too pure. In just a brief moment, a towering Dharma Aspect over thirty feet tall slowly took shape behind him.
The reason it was only thirty feet tall was that Yang Ji was deliberately suppressing it; otherwise, if the Dharma Aspect were to expand, it would surely punch a hole through the palace.
This Dharma Aspect had no three heads and six arms, no four faces and eight feet; it simply radiated a faint golden light characteristic of True Rigidity True Qi.
Its countenance was about eighty percent similar to Yang Ji's, and though simple and unadorned, it exuded an air of extraordinaryness. Its muscles were outlined like coiled serpents, each clearly defined and full of explosive strength, truly living up to the name "True Rigidity."
As soon as it formed, it emitted an aura of majesty that forbade violation, enveloping it in a thick Spiritual Charm and profound aura.
The Dharma Image of Heaven and Earth is a symbol of the power of a Nascent Soul True Monarch, capable of connecting with the forces of heaven and earth, thus allowing the user to perform instantaneous high-speed movements.
At such a realm, a hundred-foot-tall Dharma Image of Heaven and Earth, exerting the force of heaven and earth with a mere punch, meant death for nine out of ten Golden Cores unless facing an exceptional genius capable of combat across realms.
Yang Ji's Dharma Image of Heaven and Earth, cultivated from the True Rigidity Divine Art of the top ten superior Daoist Techniques of the Infinity Dao Sect, was even more powerful, far beyond the likes of individuals like Yin Zhi True Lord.
Yet, it was still no match for those Dharma Images formed from Supreme Dao Rank Techniques.
Yang Ji vowed to be among the strongest, but due to the limitations of his technique, he could only reach this level.
If he could obtain the Buddha-Demon Scripture from the hands of Buddha Child, and cultivate the Buddha-Demon Dharma Form, he would truly join the ranks of the strongest.
Among his peers, he wouldn't necessarily be the strongest, but he would be close.
However, to have come this far, although not perfect, Yang Ji was already quite satisfied.
Now controlling the Dharma Aspect to sit cross-legged in front of him, Yang Ji carefully examined it.
It resembled a Vajra, indestructible, radiating a faint golden light, which was the unique glow of the True Rigidity True Qi.
It quietly sat cross-legged before him, connecting the forces of heaven above and earth below, linking with the forces of the cosmos, ready to unleash the might of heaven and earth at any time.
Such Dharma Images can be condensed in limitless numbers, provided you have ample resources.
Because the Dharma Image of Heaven and Earth is the foundation of an external incarnation, normally only those who have reached the Divinity Transformation Realm can split their soul in such a manner. By bestowing a fragment of one's soul to the Dharma Image and further refinement, it then becomes a clone that is in sync with the original's will.
But for Yang Ji, with just an average Spiritual Root, just condensing a single Dharma Image of Heaven and Earth had already taken a toll on him, leaving him no energy to accumulate more True Qi to condense another.
This was the insurmountable gap between him and those geniuses.
However, if he could consume spiritual objects that enhance the Spiritual Root in the future, such a gap would be infinitely reduced.
The True Rigidity Dharma Aspect excels in strength, both in attack and defense.
Yang Ji quietly admired his work of art, but then a flash of inspiration struck his mind, and he had a bold idea.
The True Rigidity Dharma Aspect is famous for its ferocity, and the Humanoid Weapon is also a supreme method for soul refinement and body forging. What if the two were fused together; could a unique spark be ignited?
