However, with superior techniques, things are different. Although one cannot change one's aptitude, the difference in techniques within this realm can increase the cultivation speed several times over.
Otherwise, given the wonders of the Purple Talisman, would Lin Xiuyuan have been so eager to join the sect? It was all for this superior true technique!
Therefore, among independent cultivators, after reaching the Foundation Establishment stage, a polarization basically occurs. Nine out of ten are like the Golden Mirror Master, struggling bitterly, cultivating for decades without being able to break through to the mid-Foundation Establishment stage, and finally breaking through to the upper realm by chance due to a fortuitous opportunity.
Therefore, only those with profound good fortune can stand out and eventually make a great name for themselves in the cultivation world. Once you reach the Purple Mansion stage or above, every rogue cultivator who roams the cultivation world, whether active or not, possesses unique skills, and even cultivators from sects would not easily provoke them.
Just like the Golden Mirror Master, who possesses unique Golden Mirror techniques, even ordinary rogue cultivators would find it difficult to kill him unless they are a realm higher. If he has more good fortune and continues to break through to higher realms, his title will become Golden Mirror Venerable, or Golden Mirror Old Demon, and so on!
With the superior true teachings before him, Lin Xiuyuan couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement, and immediately stepped into the Sutra Repository.
However, as soon as he entered, his gaze fell upon a cultivator stationed there, and the excitement in his heart immediately turned into astonishment. He couldn't control himself and it showed on his face, which immediately became one of bewilderment and uncertainty.
"That's... the bloody-hand phantom??"
In sight, an old man was sitting in a recliner, idly flipping through a jade slip.
Its appearance was strikingly similar to that of the Bloodhand Illusion Demon, except that its face was slightly older; they were almost identical. Their facial features, if not exactly the same, were at least 90% alike!
However, their auras were also very different. The Blood Hand Illusion Demon carried the violent and sinister intent of a member of the Demonic Sect, while the one in front of them was ordinary, gentle, and reserved, looking like a normal cultivator.
This moment left Lin Xiuyuan somewhat surprised and uncertain, with a sense of unease in his heart.
It's possible that he's the Blood Hand Illusion Demon, but that's unlikely. After all, how could someone from such a demonic sect infiltrate a major sect like the Cloud Soaring Sect? And how could he possibly be stationed at the Scripture Pavilion?
Such cultivators are usually from reputable and loyal sects, and only they might be assigned to this place.
But their facial features are almost identical, could they be twins?
