Hidden Moth-Chapter 553 - 315: Heaven and Earth, United by Destiny

Finally handing over the task, Jiang Daozhen was silent for a while, not knowing what he was thinking.

Though his pace was just that of a normal person, his old feet never stopped, and seeing that they had walked halfway through the canyon, he suddenly asked, "Not referring to the contents mentioned in the Ancestral Hall announcement, what is the biggest attraction Magic Sect has for Loose Cultivators?"

He Kao answered confidently, "The benefits of the Sect are abundant, but for High-tier Sorcerers, the greatest attraction is the opportunity to partake in the Grotto Heaven.

Especially those Tier Four Sorcerers, if they knew beforehand the mystery of breaking through to Tier Five in the Sect Grotto Heaven, I suspect they would all find ways to return to the Magic Sect..."

The so-called partaking in the Grotto Heaven is mastering the Grotto Heaven Array Core, allowing a Tier Five Cultivator to experience the ultimate state of unity between form, spirit, and the world, and also to prematurely feel the wonder of Divine Thought.

But when it comes to the biggest benefit in cultivation, it lies in the process of Tier Four breaking through to Tier Five. Li Xiuyuan once told He Kao, to break the realm in the Floating Colors Grotto Heaven, and it was only when He Kao reached the breaking point that he understood why.

When a Tier Four Cultivator breaks through Tier Five Cultivation in the corresponding Grotto Heaven, form and spirit merge with the Grotto Heaven, entering a state of profound enlightenment, as if heaven and earth have pointed out the path of cultivation... this is He Kao’s personal experience.

How long one can stay in this state, and how deep their insight goes, depends on their foundation. After all, this opportunity comes only once, and missing it means it won’t repeat.

To draw an inaccurate analogy, if someone’s initial hope of reaching Tier Five Perfection was only ten percent, then breaking through Tier Five in the Grotto Heaven might increase the hope to thirty percent.

This is a most rare chance in a lifetime.

More importantly, many people might have no hope of further breaking through to Tier Six initially, but in this situation, it signifies a sliver of possibility... never underestimate this sliver of possibility!

If this message gets out and is confirmed, those in the Xiao Alliance who have already broken through Tier Four will likely think about how they can come to the Magic Sect Grotto Heaven to cultivate.

To achieve this, there are only two choices: either overthrow the Magic Sect and seize the Grotto Heaven or return to the Magic Sect. The Xiao Alliance’s upper echelons, understanding the implications, will likely adopt three measures.

The first is to seal the message, with only the core senior figures holding the secret, strictly prohibiting disclosure to the organization members.

The second is to set up various tasks, intentionally allowing many disciples to leave traces of violations.

The third is to cultivate a batch of key figures to sneak into the Magic Sect, simultaneously enjoying the opportunity and secretly serving the Xiao Alliance.

The above is He Kao’s answer, analyzed quite thoroughly.

After listening, Jiang Daozhen slightly shook his head, saying, "Actually, there’s another situation, occurring the most since ancient times, for which the Ancestral Hall has no good solution.

Many people return to the Magic Sect under the guise of accepting the Grotto Heaven summon, with no past misdeeds traceable, and after returning, committing no violations, except focusing on cultivation. But upon breaking through Tier Five, after some time, they disappear without a trace.

Some indeed lose contact due to various reasons, but others deliberately escape, many of whom are likely Xiao Alliance Sorcerers."

He Kao exclaimed, "Ah, people can exploit it like that, isn’t that getting something for nothing?"

Jiang Daozhen laughed, "Such a simple trick, if it were President Qian from your company, he would have thought of it in a flash, yet you didn’t think of it, it’s not that you’re not smart.

Actually, the Ancestral Hall does not care about getting something for nothing; it’s the opportunity left by the ancestors for future generations. They only mind acts that deceive the Sect!

It wasn’t until the year before last that the Ancestral Hall conducted a comprehensive survey of the Magic Sect disciples, followed by the implementation of full information management, finally providing better countermeasures."

He Kao: "No wonder the Xiao Alliance is in a panic!"

In times when transportation and communication were underdeveloped, this act of getting something for nothing was indeed hard to prevent, as once Cultivators left Sect Headquarters, unless watched constantly, they mostly remained out of contact.

Communication, as well as information gathering, was extremely difficult and highly inefficient.

But now in the information age, things are different. Magic Sect possesses the conditions to implement full information management, largely blocking this route.

Jiang Daozhen again asked, "Magic Sect disciples, upon breaking through Tier Four Cultivation, are told by seniors that when they eventually break through Tier Five, the best place for seclusion is within the Sect Grotto Heaven.

The seniors don’t disclose the specific reason, but let them experience it themselves when the time comes. The Ancestral Hall announcement doesn’t mention this benefit of returning to the Magic Sect, do you know why?"

This time, He Kao didn’t guess but respectfully said, "I was just about to seek your advice." 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶

Jiang Daozhen: "This is the unwritten tradition of the Magic Sect since ancient times. Those willing to accept the Grotto Heaven summon and return to the Magic Sect can obtain this opportunity, and those refusing to return are the ones missing it.

If this matter were disclosed to the Xiao Alliance disciples, attracting them with the opportunity, there’s another saying, if someone comes for profit, they may also leave for profit... Why are you shaking your head?"

He Kao was listening intently, surprised and said, "I didn’t shake my head!"

Jiang Daozhen: "Although you didn’t physically shake your head, your expression showed some disagreement, as if shaking your head in your heart."

He Kao: "I didn’t disagree!"

Jiang Daozhen: "No, you did! Think carefully, what reason do you have not to agree with this saying?"

He Kao was about to protest but suddenly realized something, pondered for a while, and tentatively explained, "This is the objective reality existing since ancient times; opportunities make no distinction between individuals; otherwise, why have the Grotto Heaven summon?"
