Chapter 1025 - Stunned (1/2)

‘With these books, the possibility of me breaking through to the Cosmos God realm would be much higher!’
Xue Ying’s eyes were sparkling as he stared at the books floating across the vast space.
What about those books imprinted on the Sky Pillar?
He temporarily did not need to care about them since they required contribution points to be exchanged. Currently, Xue Ying could only accept Unity realm level missions with the Southern Cloud Sacred Religion, and he would only be getting hundreds of contribution points every task. Furthermore, these missions were extremely complex. The slightly easier ones had already been snatched away by other inner disciples!
Inner disciples were practically all at the Primal Chaos realm and could send their incarnations an ultra-long distance away. They could thus efficiently complete these missions.
‘In order to earn contribution points, I should wait until the time that I can show my strength to the public–about ninth or tenth level. By then, earning points should be much faster.’ Xue Ying thought.
‘As for now?’
‘I should build a strong foundation first.’ Xue Ying started his reading.
…
The Book Repository within the Southern Cloud Sacred Religion was quite scary. The rare scriptures located on the ‘Sky Pillar’ were ultimately few in number–fewer than 100. But the other books found here were free to read! There were even absolute art scriptures that directly led to the Cosmos God realm available for everyone to browse through.
‘By learning from the crystallization of wisdom and experience of others, this would widen my path of cultivation.’ Xue Ying did not mind learning from others. By doing so, it would broaden his perspective. Just like how his talent on the Dao of Void initially could not compare to the ‘Dao of Mirage illusory realm’, after learning from the inheritances by Void Primogenitor, Monarch Nine Cloud, and comprehending the scaled armor left behind by General Mo Gu that contained the ‘shadowless talent’, coupled with observing the Lost World Corridor for a trillion years… Xue Ying’s attainment in the Dao of Void continually rose. It had even surpassed his comprehensions on the Dao of Slaughter and Dao of Ripple.
And in this life.
He joined the Southern Cloud Sacred Religion which specialized in the void aspect. The religion even had the “Avatar Technique”, “Great Destruction Realm Teleportation Technique”, and “Void-ification Undying Technique”.
Maybe his attainments on the void in this life might be higher than the Mirage and illusory realm. That was entirely possible!
Cultivating with reference from many seniors versus slowly cultivating alone was very different.
‘So many books.’
Xue Ying first spent a total of two days sweeping through all the books.
His accomplishments in the void aspect were originally high so few could catch his notice–only a total of 195 books on the void element! As for books written by other seniors regarding the tricks to cultivating the “Southern Cloud 12 Sacred Styles”, Xue Ying disdained from reading those since few of those seniors had reached the tenth level power at Primal Chaos realm.
Xue Ying naturally wasn’t willing to waste too much of his time.
‘195 books.’ Xue Ying softly nodded. More than 30 of these 195 books were written personally by ‘Southern Cloud King’ himself! Others were either books that were written directly to the Cosmos God realm or they were some ancient and queer books.
‘There are actually good books on the Mirage and illusory realm too.’ Xue Ying felt pleasant.
There were even fewer books that were noticed by Xue Ying on the Mirage and illusory realm aspect. Primarily it was because there were not too many books on this aspect across the entire Realm Heart Great Land. Hence, fewer existed in the Southern Cloud Sacred Religion. Only a total of 18 books were noticed by Xue Ying! And only two books could be cultivated to the Cosmos God realm. And there were no books at all that gave one the ability to exhibit a tenth level strength at the Primal Chaos realm.
This was normal too. Exhibiting strength at the tenth level was equivalent to having the ability to fight against Cosmos Gods. It was absolutely not a technique that a sect would easily publicize.
Like the Southern Cloud Sacred Religion, only after becoming an inner disciple could he learn it. Otherwise, non-inner disciples would have to fork out a huge price.
‘This is enough.’
‘This is sufficient.’ Xue Ying felt contended. These 18 books on the Mirage and illusory realm had significantly opened his eyes. He was ultimately a great expert in the Mirage and illusory realm, and someone who created a ninth level move at the Primal Chaos realm.
‘These books all represent different cultivation directions. They have greatly improved my confidence in breaking through to the Cosmos God realm.’
Joining the religion?
He did not care about treasures! Neither did Xue Ying care about the backings!
Instead, what he paid greater importance to was the absolute art scriptures left behind by many experts across the generations in the Realm Heart Great Land. As the saying went, ‘Dao isn’t easily imparted to others’. It wasn’t easy for Southern Cloud King with his strength to collect so many books either. And it was impossible for a cultivator to access these books if he was not willing to join the religion altogether. Furthermore, it was impossible for the Southern Cloud King to accept cultivators without the required strength or talent either.

After obtaining these books, Xue Ying first memorized them.
