After all, compared to the unpredictable strength and weakness of the soul formed by the Seeking Truth Method, the Mimicry Technique and Visualizing Method are more sturdy. Although the path ahead is limited, the lower limit is clear. With good luck and an understanding of spiritual techniques, it can even turn an ordinary martial artist into a stronghold in the Fierce Realm.

However, the Tang Clan’s Heavenly Pathway Technique only has the Seeking Truth Method as the pathway to breaking through the Fierce Realm. This is because the Sky-Picking Hand and Extreme Luster Strength both require a true martial incarnation to display. Once a Tang Clan member uses a different technique to break through into the Fierce Realm, it means abandoning the two most crucial abilities in the Heavenly Domination Scroll.

Therefore, over the years, the Tang Clan has been trying to stabilize the lower limit of the Seeking Truth Method. Through the efforts of over a dozen generations, they have finally researched several reliable methods.

The first is to practice body refinement techniques to strengthen the internal organs. Following the path of interior saint and exterior king, as long as the internal organs are robust, there are few martial artists who have weak souls when using the Seeking Truth Method.

The second is to study various martial arts paths, practice a large number of different techniques and spiritual arts, and achieve a wide and profound understanding of the Martial Arts Realm. In this way, the soul created by the Seeking Truth Method is also strong.

Luckily, the Tang Clan’s collection is astonishing. The Tang Clan and the Mi Clan are probably the most profound in their study of the martial paths in the west of Longzhou. Therefore, these two demanding methods can be undertaken simultaneously by the Tang Clan. This dual approach of strengthening the internal organs and gaining a profound understanding of martial arts gives Tang Clan martial artists a considerable advantage when using the Seeking Truth Method to cast their soul. In this way, once Tang Clan martial artists breakthrough into the Fierce Realm, the amplification of spiritual power by their soul is usually around twice as much.

However, few clan martial artists use the Seeking Truth Method to break through into the Fierce Realm. They prefer to use the Mimicry Technique to increase their fighting power directly. The clans are more than happy to see this, as after all, clan martial artists need to handle a lot of operational work. They don’t have time to delve into martial arts or have enough resources to strengthen their internal organs, so the Mimicry Technique seems much more affordable.

Regardless of the merits and weaknesses of the three Soul Casting methods, every martial artist in the Fierce Realm is indisputably a master. This type of martial artist, who has completely separated themselves from the mortal class of martial artists, can crush a small local force just by cultivation and a few squads of mortal class teams.

However, Tang Luo’s new division is going to offer Soul Casting Method even without an established structure. That leaves Tang Zhi somewhat confused. But since he promised to establish this new division, he would not deny this request. Hence, he asked Tang Hongtao: “Do you think we should teach the Soul Casting Method to the new division?”

Such a question is almost a formality; who amongst the Tang Clan didn’t know that Tang Hongtao was Tang Sen’s master and greatly admired Tang Luo. Perhaps the Secret Arts Pavilion would prohibit the Dark Thunder Hall from offering the Soul Casting Method, but it would never obstruct the Marshal Star Pavilion.

As everyone expected, Tang Hongtao responded calmly to the clan leader: “I have no objections.”

“Thankyou, elder.” Tang Zhi nodded slightly, turned his head to Tang Luo and asked, “Minister Luo, do you have any other requests?”

If the eleven coaches suggest that the Marshal Star Pavilion will mainly focus on cultivating mortal-class martial artists, then why ask for the Soul Casting Method? He was becoming increasingly curious about Tang Luo’s new division.

“This is enough.” Tang Luo nodded at the clan leader, his face full of smiles. As long as there were coaches and access to the Soul Casting Method, his Marshal Star Pavilion would be ready for everything.

“Alright.” Tang Zhi showed a relieved expression, and then asked, “When do you need the coaches?”

Each coach has their own work to do, so taking one out would mean consolidating students from the original martial hall. However, organization takes time, hence the question.

“It will be sufficient if they can be arranged around the end of the year.” Tang Luo casually replied.

Except for Tang Sen who was still eating his meal as if nothing was happening, everyone else furrowed their brows, because this timing was quite strange.NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.

Longzhou’s path change drowned the original plains, especially the three cities Xiling, Clear Water, and Shen Ping, located in the low-lying areas of the middle of Lingjiang, were the most severely affected places. Without thinking, it’s impossible for floodwaters of this scale to recede in a few months, and once winter comes, with every plant and animal hidden, little food can be found on the mountains. The shortage of food would make the common people lose their sanity, so recruitment at that time would be impossible, unless Tang Luo has a vast supply of food.

No one knows what Tang Luo is planning to do. All they know is that with this coming-of-age ceremony, a new division – the Marshal Star Pavilion – will be added to the future Martial Hall.

Since the new division’s matters have been settled, those at the table began to discuss some official business.

Regardless of the era, the time of those in high positions is always precious. For them, if a meal is just a meal, it is a tremendous waste of resources, especially in tense times between the two clans.

Now, Xiling is in chaos. Without saying much about the mountains directly north and south, they have long been occupied by the two clans, but the eastern and western hills have suddenly seen many forces arise.

There is some truth in the saying, “In troubled times, heroes arise.” Most of these hilltops are occupied by the alliance of powerful families. Some medium­sized notable families, who previously kept a low-profile in Xiling, have shown their fierce side amidst this flood.

Families ranging from several thousand to over ten thousand people have claimed the mountains as their own and have turned into formidable outlaw forces overnight.

The peace order that Xiling had upheld for hundreds of years was easily torn apart by them. After swallowing the wealth of several clans, these families occupied their territories, raised their clan flags and declared independence.

The Tang and Mi Clans were particularly pleased with this transformation. Not only did they not send troops to suppress it, but they also made several friendly exchanges, establishing a considerable tacit understanding with the heads of the western mountains. However, the Wu Family was not very interested in the Tang Clan.

“The foundation shown by the Wu Family this time is extraordinary. I underestimated Wu Huan back then, but I’m glad it’s not too late for us to make up for it now. Even ifwe can’t win over the Wu Family, we won’t let them join the Mi Clan!” Sixth Elder Tang Gaomin promised the Clan Leader Tang Zhi, his tone full of remorse.

No one could have foreseen that the Wu Family, who had always been content with their lot in Xiling, saying that they would be satisfied with a modest fortune, suddenly showed their fangs and claws in this disaster. Six Fierce Realm martial artists led fifty teams of Martial Arts Realm martial artists to flatten three clans overnight, becoming the biggest force in the west, occupying the Yuxi Ridge, which resulted in several smaller clans swearing fealty.

Suddenly, Yuxi Ridge became the fourth major force in Xiling. With over a dozen small clans swearing fealty, the Wu Family gained nearly thirty Fierce Realm forces. Along with their original forces, it caught the attention of the two clans.

Over the years, Tang Gaomin had been trying to seize the largest winery in West City from the Wu Family, pressuring Wu Huan several times. He originally thought the Wu Family was weak and timid, but who could have thought that a tiger would burst out of the quagmire once the natural disaster struck.

Tang Gaomin shook his head and chuckled bitterly, “I was busy hunting geese but failed to see the soaring crane right in front of me. I’m really getting old…” “Sixth Elder, do not belittle yourself.” Tang Zhi laughed and waved his hand: “After all, it’s just the Wu family. Even if they carry a bunch of idle Fierce Realm martial artists, what is there to be afraid of? Yuxi Ridge itself doesn’t have much arable land for cultivation. Wu Huan’s strong integration of small clans is certainly not to compete with the two clans in Xiling. I judge that soon we will hear news of Wu Huan taking people and leavingXiling.”

“Oh!?” Tang Gaomin suddenly raised his eyebrows, and respectfully said: “Please enlighten me, clan leader.”
