Changed to practice Xuantian Gong

Zhao Shijie's reminder made Li Fan's heart skip a beat, and he quickly tried to circulate his own Cultivation Technique, the "Void Tempering Nine Revolutions True Art."

The "Void Tempering Nine Revolutions True Art" was the Cultivation Technique he switched to after advancing to the Soul Transformation Realm.

Its power, though not comparable to the "Scripture of the Great Dao of Executing Heaven," was still extremely impressive.

It directly pointed to the Chang Sheng Realm and could be called a supreme Great Law.

Each of the nine revolutions of Void Tempering involved thoroughly comprehending oneself and awakening a Divine Ability unique to oneself. In any other School, it would be considered a treasure of the Sect.

Generally speaking, only Elders and a few Core Disciples within the Sect were qualified to Cultivate it.

Li Fan was also able to obtain the opportunity to Cultivate this Cultivation Technique exceptionally due to Zhao Shijie's promotion to Daoist.

However, at this moment…

After circulating the Cultivation Technique for several cycles, not only did his Cultivation not increase at all, but he also vaguely sensed the positions of several Senior Brothers who were also Cultivating the "Void Tempering Nine Revolutions True Art."

Furthermore, the more he focused his senses, the more an uncontrollable killing intent arose in his heart.

"What in the world is going on?!" Li Fan was both shocked and fearful, his face instantly turning incredibly grim.

"Cultivation Techniques cannot be Cultivated together… This is the backlash of Heaven and Earth…" Zhao Shijie looked up at the sky, muttering to herself. "I never thought the calamity I foresaw back then would descend in such a way."

Cultivation Techniques cannot be Cultivated together.

When Li Fan heard these words, he felt a surge of alarm. With just a little thought, he seemed to envision the unstoppable, bloody slaughter that was about to engulf the Cultivation World.

Since embarking on the path of Cultivation, he had never felt such deep-seated fear as he did at this moment.

However, he was now a Nascent Soul Stage cultivator, a prominent figure in the outside world.

Though startled, he remained composed, pacing back and forth in the room, Li Fan frowned deeply as he pondered.

"Although the effects of 'The Rhapsody of Intercourse between Heaven and Earth' are greatly diminished since only you and I Cultivate it, it hasn't become completely ineffective."

"So, the more people who Cultivate the same Cultivation Technique, the stronger the restrictive effect?"

"It's almost predictable that this anomaly will have a devastating impact on almost all Sects in the world. With tens of thousands or even over a hundred thousand Disciples, where would there be so many Cultivation Techniques for them to Cultivate!"

"The Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance won't fare well either, and they might even be worse off than us! After all, it's a newly established organization, unlike our Immortal Dao Ten Sects with our deep foundations. Their Cultivation Technique count is limited; it's said that most of their lower-ranking members Cultivate the 'Heavenly Net Divine Art.'" A hint of gloom flashed in Li Fan's eyes.

"This is a calamity for all of us Cultivators."

Li Fan turned to look at Zhao Shijie, and after a moment of hesitation, he still spoke up to remind her: "If Cultivation Techniques cannot be Cultivated together, then there must be a choice. The 'Scripture of the Great Dao of Executing Heaven' that you Cultivate, Senior Sister, conflicts with the Sect Leader…"

A cold glint also appeared on Zhao Shijie's face.

Just as she was about to speak, a series of urgent and clear bell chimes suddenly echoed from outside the room.

"The Sect Leader has called for an emergency meeting, presumably to discuss how to deal with this calamity. I'll go first."

After her figure had disappeared, her faint words finally reached Li Fan's ears.

"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."

Li Fan looked towards the Sect's grand hall on the mountaintop, his expression unreadable.

"Cannot be Cultivated together…"

Alone, he came to the secret chamber in his room. Li Fan recalled the contents of several Cultivation Techniques he had obtained from the Xuantian Sect ruins.

In addition to "The Rhapsody of Intercourse between Heaven and Earth," there were also "Eternal Solipsism Art," "Soul Severing Divine Light Skill," and "Scripture of Heaven's Grief and Earth's Sorrow."

Li Fan and Zhao Shijie had privately studied these Cultivation Techniques together.

However, Xuantian Sect's Cultivation Techniques, whether in their Cultivation method or their effects after Cultivation, were vastly different from current Cultivation Techniques. Moreover, it was very possible that, like Dual Cultivation methods, they contained some unknown imprints or restrictions.

Therefore, over the years, they had only memorized the original texts before destroying them, and had not actually Cultivated them.

"If push comes to shove, I'll have no choice but to switch to Cultivating these unique Xuantian Sect Cultivation Techniques." Li Fan knew very well that his status within the Great Dao Sect was absolutely incomparable to that of those several Core Disciples. He would definitely be one of the first to be abandoned. "Fortunately, the New Law Cultivates extremely quickly; even if I start from scratch, I can quickly Cultivate back to my previous Realm."

"Every cause has its effect, everything is predetermined. Who would have thought that a fortuitous encounter in my youth would play such a decisive role many years later? With these unique texts, even in such a great calamity of Heaven and Earth, as long as I am careful, I can safely pass through it." Li Fan's eyes flickered, and his mind was immersed in the contents of the Cultivation Technique.

The Great Dao Sect's highest-level meeting didn't last long; soon, Sect Leader Ji Changxi issued a decree to stabilize people's hearts.

He told the Disciples not to panic, as the Immortal Dao Ten Sects had already begun researching countermeasures.

Subsequently, he ordered the recall of all Great Dao Sect Disciples who were outside, stating that the Sect Protection Array would be activated and the mountain gate sealed off soon.

At the same time, the Pill Room was to fully refine longevity medicines in preparation for unforeseen circumstances.

…

As one command after another was issued, the panicked hearts of the Disciples gradually calmed down.

The Immortal Dao Ten Sects, with a Legacy of thousands of years. They should be able to find a way to deal with this, right?

Most Disciples thought so.

Three years passed in an extremely oppressive atmosphere.

Three years later, despite various attempts by the Daoist Cultivators, they still hadn't found a way to deal with "Cultivation Techniques cannot be Cultivated together."

Instead, rumors constantly came from the outside world about Sects, large and small, fighting each other over Cultivation Techniques, leading to the demise of countless Schools.

The only good news was that the Celestial Venerable of Dharma Transmission, who had always been elusive, suddenly appeared.

He forcefully entered the Supreme Sect and obtained the "Cultivation Dissolution Chapter" from the "Supreme Primordial Scripture" for all Cultivators in the world.

With this miraculous art, even if forced to abolish their Cultivation Technique, they wouldn't lose much Cultivation.

"I'm actually a little grateful to Celestial Venerable of Dharma Transmission," Li Fan said, circulating the "Soul Severing Divine Light Skill" and feeling the pure Cultivation in his Dantian rapidly raising his Realm, he couldn't help but sigh.

"Hmph, grateful to him? If he hadn't created some New Law, how could there be a backlash from Heaven and Earth and the descent of a great calamity? He harbors evil intentions, and his heart should be punished!" Zhao Shijie snorted coldly.

"According to the Sect Leader, as early as when Celestial Venerable of Dharma Transmission first began spreading the New Law, the Immortal Dao Ten Sects had investigated his origins."

"Unfortunately, they seemed unable to find anything unusual."

"At that time, they were too arrogant and didn't take this Celestial Venerable of Dharma Transmission seriously. And there were…"

"And there were other matters to deal with, so they actually neglected him."

"By the time they came to their senses, the New Law had already spread like wildfire and was unstoppable!"

"Hateful!"

Zhao Shijie, who had also switched Cultivation Techniques, said coldly, a hint of killing intent flashing in her eyes.
