Upon hearing this, Lu Tao's expression shifted.
This is truly like a pillow delivered just when you're sleepy; I was just worried about not being able to be in two places at once.
What do you need?
There are so many! Not only are there techniques for creating clones, but also techniques for using the pupils, concealment techniques, pill formulas, formations, weapon crafting methods, and so on.
but.
Lu Tao was not a greedy person. Now that the Great Expedition was in turmoil, whether it was the Divine Platform, the Martial King, or the Martial God, all kinds of resources were extremely needed.
He himself had killed many Grandmasters and Divine Platforms of the Demon and Monster races, gaining a great deal of resources. At least, these resources were enough for all of their Immortal Sect's nearly seven hundred disciples to advance to the Divine Platform.
Even the Martial King realm.
Furthermore, on the surface, he is the only one in the Immortal Sect with good talent, and it is impossible for him to ask the royal family for 700 resources to advance to Martial King and Martial God.
That would be tantamount to self-destruction.
Therefore.
Lu Tao pondered for a moment and said, "Seventh Master, I don't need much. I hope the royal family can give me some techniques similar to clone techniques, pupil techniques, and breath concealment techniques, as well as pill formulas, formations, and the like."
That's all?
Seventh Master was somewhat surprised.
The things Lu Tao wanted were not consumables; they were all replicable. For the Da Gan royal family, it was practically the same as giving away nothing at all.
This displeased Seventh Master, who feigned anger and said, "You brat, do you look down on my Great Gan royal family? You don't want any cultivation resources?"
"Not really. In addition, I hope the royal family can help me collect some secret techniques and eye techniques. The more of these cultivation methods, the better."
Lu Tao smiled and said, "Of course, Lu Tao also needs some cultivation resources, hoping to raise his cultivation to the Martial King and Martial God realms as soon as possible."
"Okay, don't worry, all of these will be delivered to you today."
Seventh Master nodded and added, "Since you have good comprehension, my royal family will give you some Heaven-rank martial arts techniques. While you are improving your cultivation, you can also spend some time comprehending them."
Seventh Master was very satisfied with Lu Tao's choice.
Even with the royal family's generous offer, Lu Tao didn't ask for an exorbitant amount, which shows his character and further improved Seventh Master's impression of him.
Therefore, Seventh Master voluntarily gifted him a Heaven-Rank cultivation technique.
and.
The Heavenly Rank cultivation technique he mentioned was naturally not a low-grade Heavenly Rank technique, otherwise it would have had limited effect on Lu Tao's strength and would not have been of much help in his major endeavors.
Over the long years since the founding of the Great Gan Imperial Family, countless martial arts techniques have been collected.
These techniques can enhance Lu Tao's strength and help Da Gan resolve the current crisis, which is definitely worthwhile.
However, what intrigued Seventh Master was why Lu Tao prioritized the clone technique and the pupil technique.
Could it be a self-created martial art?
They had investigated Lu Tao before; Lu Tao's talent was extremely exaggerated, and he was able to combine multiple martial arts techniques to create his own martial arts skills.
So, upon thinking of this, Seventh Master's heart stirred.
Seventh Master asked directly, "Lu Tao, are you planning to create your own clone technique?"
Seventh Master didn't care much about the pupil technique, but if the clone technique was effective and he could cultivate a clone comparable to his original body, it would be of great help to Daqian.
Seventh Master looked at Lu Tao with some excitement, as did Kong Hao.
Lu Tao nodded and said, "Yes, I have that idea, but creating your own cultivation technique is very difficult. I'm just giving it a try."
Lu Tao did not hide anything, nor did he intend to keep anything to himself.
After all, even if he upgrades his infinite clones to the Earth Rank and Heaven Rank, and then divides them again before passing them on to Daqian, it will still take time for the Martial Kings and Martial Gods of Daqian to comprehend them.
This period of time is enough for him to improve his cultivation level significantly.
This matter has no impact on Lu Tao. It can even improve the strength of Da Gan and allow them to help him gain experience indefinitely. Why not?
"Well, there's no rush. Right now, you should prioritize improving your cultivation."
Seventh Master's excited heart gradually calmed down.
Creating one's own cultivation method is naturally not easy, especially to create a clone that allows Martial Kings and Martial Gods to cultivate with similar strength. Not only is it extremely difficult, but it also takes them a considerable amount of time to cultivate it themselves.
What they lack now is time.
Lu Tao smiled and said, "Seventh Master, rest assured, Lu Tao will not put the cart before the horse and will definitely do his best to improve his cultivation and strength."
"Yes, that's excellent."
Seventh Master nodded in satisfaction, his eyes full of admiration as he looked at Lu Tao.
Then, Seventh Master brought up another matter with a somewhat unnatural expression, saying, "Hey Lu Tao, you must have obtained quite a few Dust-Removing Grasses from slaying the demon and monster races this time, right? Could you give some to my royal family? I don't need many, just three will do."
Upon hearing this, Lu Tao hesitated for a moment.
Seeing this, Seventh Master was slightly disappointed and immediately said, "If there isn't enough Dust-Removing Grass for your Immortal Sect, then forget it."
"Please forgive me, Seventh Master."
Lu Tao hurriedly said, "It's not that I'm reluctant, it's just that my alchemy skills are quite good, and I can refine second-tier pills. So I was thinking, why don't I wait until I've refined the Dust-Clearing Pills before sending some to the royal family?"
Lu Tao was also helpless.
It wasn't that he was reluctant to give three plants to the royal family, but rather that he had already upgraded all the Dust-Clearing Grass to Mortal-Transforming Grass, and even to the level of a top-grade precious medicine.
If three of these plants were sent out, it would surely cause a stir in the royal family.
Some might even speculate whether Lu Tao has obtained a large quantity of these Transcendent Grasses, and it would be difficult to determine whether the royal family has other intentions in the future.
If it were just the Dust-Clearing Grass, Lu Tao would have given it to Seventh Master without hesitation.
After all, cooperating with the royal family, these cultivation techniques and secret manuals alone are definitely worth three Dust-Removing Grasses.
"I see."
Upon hearing this, Seventh Master suddenly realized that even the royal family had second-tier alchemists, but not many. Since Lu Tao had such an idea, he couldn't refuse Lu Tao's request, so he smiled and said, "Alright, once you've refined them, just give the royal family three."
Lu Tao said, "Seventh Master, rest assured, the three pills will definitely be delivered."
"Well, in that case, I won't stay any longer."
Seventh Master nodded, stood up, bid farewell to Lu Tao, and instructed him: "From now on, you must focus on your cultivation and not be distracted."
"Yes, I will follow Seventh Master's teachings and Lu Tao will definitely work hard in my cultivation."
Lu Tao nodded solemnly, escorted Seventh Master to the outside of the Immortal Sect, and said, "Take care, Seventh Master."
Kong Hao quickly said, "Please take care, Lord Martial God."
Under their watchful eyes, Seventh Master flew away and quickly disappeared from their sight.
Kong Hao watched Seventh Master's figure disappear and said enviously, "That's the difference. I've been the prefect of Yongkang Prefecture for so many years and I still can't call him Seventh Master affectionately. But you, kid, have managed to get on Seventh Master's good side in just over ten days."
"This is called cooperation, not me clinging to someone else's coattails."
Lu Tao walked back to the Immortal Sect, activated the Immortal Sect's formation, and corrected Kong Hao's statement. Seeing that Kong Hao had also followed him in, he couldn't help but say with disdain, "Why did you come to the Immortal Sect instead of going back to Yongkang Prefecture?"
"No way, I'm still your older brother, how can you treat me like this?"
Kong Hao was furious upon hearing this and retorted angrily, "Besides, my daughter is also a disciple of the Immortal Sect. What's wrong with me coming to visit her? Is that not allowed?"
Lu Tao rolled his eyes and didn't say anything.
Mainly, he wanted all his disciples to worship the statue of the god to improve their aptitude. He didn't want Kong Hao to stay any longer and just wanted to get rid of him. He was also afraid that Kong Hao would see Kong Xin.
Seeing this, Kong Hao was furious and asked, "By the way, where is Xin'er? Her father has been here for so long, and she hasn't come out to see me. Could something have happened to her?"
Lu Tao sighed helplessly, as if what he feared had come to pass. He said with disdain again, "Xin'er has just mastered the Heavenly Rank technique, so naturally she needs to go into seclusion to break through to the Grandmaster realm. Do you think everyone is like you, idling around all day, doing nothing but running around?"
"I……"
Kong Hao was so angry he almost couldn't speak. He had originally wanted to thank Lu Tao for passing on the Heavenly Rank cultivation technique to Kong Xin, but now he had no desire to express his gratitude at all.
Kong Hao retorted angrily, "Fine, fine, you've improved your cultivation, so you're starting to look down on your older brother like this? Fine, fine, I'm leaving, I'm leaving, okay?"
However, although he said he was going to leave, he didn't move his feet.
"Why aren't you leaving?" Lu Tao asked curiously.
"Although I don't know why you keep trying to get rid of me, I won't hold it against you."
Kong Hao's angry expression suddenly vanished, and he stopped being angry, looking as if he didn't care about arguing with him.
Immediately, Kong Hao put his arm around Lu Tao's shoulder and said with a wink, "Hey little brother, I've always treated you well, haven't I? Since you're willing to give the royal family a few Dust-Clearing Pills, you should also consider Xin'er and your older brother, right?"
"No way, don't even think about it." Lu Tao crossed his arms and raised his head slightly.
"Given our relationship, not even two Cleansing Pills are enough?"
"Um...no."
"I once gave you a martial arts manual and offered to be your bodyguard."
"...Huh? No, you're copying me, aren't you?"
“I once gave you land to establish the Immortal Sect, and I even kindly prepared all kinds of materials for you.”
"...No, this is a bit cheating."
"I gave you three spots in the secret realm so that you would have the opportunity to obtain so many Dust-Clearing Herbs."
"...Wait, if I don't enter the secret realm..."
"I once gave my daughter away..."
"Stop! Okay, that's enough. I'll give it to you, I'll give it to you, alright?"
Lu Tao quickly stopped Kong Hao from continuing, fearing that Kong Hao's suggestion of giving his daughter to him would affect his relationship with Shuang'er.
Kong Hao snorted and said, "Why didn't you do this earlier? You had to waste my breath."
