Chapter 226: Unexpected Benefit

Chapter 226: Unexpected Benefit

Among the deceased female disciples, there were several personal disciples cultivated by Jin Qigu for many years, as well as one junior sister whom Jin Qigu held in high regard.

After achieving Foundation Building, Jin Qigu intended to follow the Qiaoshou Sect's tradition of passing on the position of Sect Master to a junior sister at the Refining Qi stage, allowing her to handle the sect's daily affairs. However, the junior sister whom Jin Qigu had high hopes for had been secluded in cultivation for a certain technique until just a few days ago when she finally came out of seclusion.

Jin Qigu brought this junior sister to Firewell Market to entrust her with some matters and introduce her to some important Qiaoshou Sect's clients. Upon their return, Jin Qigu planned to pass on the position of Sect Master to her.

Unexpectedly, due to an ambush by the demonic cultivators from the Yellow Lotus Sect, the junior sister who was supposed to take over as the Sect Master sacrificed herself by using a self-destructive secret technique to buy time and protect Jin Qiao'er.

Losing the intended Sect Master, Jin Qigu now had to search for a new candidate slowly. Though Meng Zhang was unaware of the full extent of Qiaoshou Sect's losses, he stayed with them for a while, witnessing their grief and tears.

Jin Qigu didn't let her disciples immerse themselves in sorrow for too long. She and a few female disciples tidied up the bodies of their fallen fellow disciples and took the initiative to bid farewell to Meng Zhang.

Considering that two Foundation Building stage cultivators from the Yellow Lotus Sect were still at large, Meng Zhang, being the kind person that he was, decided to escort them all the way back to the Qiaoshou Sect, ensuring their safety.

They traveled together until they returned to Qiaoshou Sect, finally feeling completely relieved. The Qiaoshou Sect's mountain gate was guarded by a Second Rank great formation, and Aunt Jin at the mid-Foundation Building stage was in charge. The two early Foundation Building stage cultivators from the Yellow Lotus Sect wouldn't dare to cause trouble there.

Meng Zhang politely declined Qiaoshou Sect's invitation to stay, bid them farewell, and directly returned to Taiyi Sect.

Back at Taiyi Sect, Meng Zhang finally had the opportunity to carefully inspect the spoils of this battle.

The seemingly inconspicuous early Foundation Building stage cultivator, after his death, brought a great surprise to Meng Zhang. The three storage bags he carried were all Tenfold Aspect storage bags, each filled to the brim.

The storage ring he kept close to his body had a spatial volume exceeding ten times that of a Tenfold Aspect storage bag.

This book, "Grand Evolving Fortune," records the most mysterious and profound knowledge in the Cultivation World— the path of heavenly numerology.

According to legend, there is a group of cultivators in the Cultivation World who are adept at heavenly numerology, known as Diviners. Diviners' status is even above that of tool refiners, alchemists, and formation masters. Only the top sects can have Diviners.

Diviners, skilled in heavenly numerology, can deduce everything in the world with a simple finger calculation, including past and future events. An omniscient Diviner can turn misfortune into good fortune and evade various calamities on their path of cultivation.

Meng Zhang holds a skeptical attitude about whether the legendary Diviners are truly omnipotent. However, he is genuinely interested in the knowledge of heavenly numerology.

If Meng Zhang does possess the aptitude to study the heavenly numerology and become a Diviner, his status in the Cultivation World would be extraordinary. Diviners are highly sought after by sects that have Gold Core Daoist Masters and Primordial Spirit True Monarchs.

The esteemed seniors and experts in the Cultivation World greatly value Diviners and would go to great lengths to befriend them and even win their favor.

However, Meng Zhang also acknowledges reality. If the heavenly numerology were so easy to learn, the Cultivation World would be overflowing with Diviners long ago. In truth, Diviners are extremely rare and scarce in the Cultivation World.

At least in the Endless Sea of Sand and the surrounding areas of the Jiuqu League, there has been no mention of any existing Diviners. The study of heavenly numerology requires an exceptionally high level of cultivation.

Many cultivators have already become Gold Core Daoist Masters but remain completely ignorant about heavenly numerology. Such individuals who lack an understanding of heavenly principles and fate are not uncommon in the Cultivation World.

As a Foundation Building stage cultivator, Meng Zhang is merely attempting to study "Grand Evolving Fortune" to see if he has any innate talent for learning the heavenly numerology.

Despite being full of confidence in his aptitude and comprehension and occasionally feeling a sense of superiority as a transmigrator, Meng Zhang dares not claim that he will definitely succeed in mastering this knowledge.
