Chapter 504: Chapter 518: Great Taoist Rift

The things that Mad Demon Sect Mentor gave to Mu Can were very simple.

Everything started with the fundamentals. If anything didn’t meet the mentor’s requirements,

Mu Can could only repeat the process over and over again.

However, the effects of doing so were indeed very good; Mu Can’s basic alchemy skills had become considerably more robust in an instant.

This was also related to Mu Can’s own efforts; previously, during his time in the Three Realms, he paid too much attention to enhancing his own strength,

And had neglected the aspect of alchemy for a long time.

Now was the perfect opportunity to have a good master and solidify the fundamentals.

Mad Demon Sect Mentor was also very satisfied with Mu Can’s performance, more and more certain he had not misjudged his character.

Although Mu Can had a certain foundation in alchemy, when he was asked to practice those most basic operations, Mu Can did not even ask why and just followed the instructions.

“Alright, take a break.” Seeing the beads of sweat on Mu Can’s forehead, Mad Demon Sect Mentor called a halt.

“Yes, Master.” Mu Can took a deep breath; after half a day of continuous practice, he indeed felt a bit tired.

“Master, I want to refine a Heavenly Repairing Pill. Could you help me with the refinement?” Mu Can thought it over; there was a possibility of failure if he did it himself.

But to not make use of such a great Pill Master right before his eyes would be a sheer waste, wouldn’t it?

“Heavenly Repairing Pill? You need a Heavenly Repairing Pill?” The mentor instantly felt nervous, not because of the pill itself, but because it was generally used to repair innate flaws.

Could it be that the excellent disciple he had just found had some physical defect that required a Heavenly Repairing Pill?

“Yes, disciple indeed needs a Heavenly Repairing Pill.” Mu Can nodded, his foundation was unstable with cracks appearing; without the Heavenly Repairing Pill, it might not show any problems now, but as soon as he continued with his cultivation, a tiny deviation could lead to a huge error, and the future impact would be massive.

By then, even if he wanted to find a way to make amends, the difficulty would be several times what it is now.

Mad Demon Sect Mentor grabbed Mu Can’s wrist and started to carefully sense his condition; being an outstanding Pill Master also gave him unique insights into diagnosing ailments.

“This is troublesome, it’s actually an Innate Dao Mark.” Mad Demon Sect Mentor suddenly let go of Mu Can’s wrist and began to pace around the yard anxiously.

“Innate Dao Mark?” Mu Can looked puzzled; why had Wang Cai never mentioned anything about Innate Dao Marks to him?

“An Innate Dao Mark is a trace within your body that has been damaged by the Dao, which greatly affects your future cultivation. If not handled properly, your path of cultivation will be severed.”

Mad Demon Sect Mentor paced back and forth anxiously; for common physical flaws, the Heavenly Repairing Pill could indeed perfectly remedy them.

But for Innate Dao Marks, the Heavenly Repairing Pill had almost no effect.

“What? My path of cultivation will be severed?” Mu Can instantly felt confused; what exactly was going on? Apart from the Reincarnation Pearl in his body, was there some other incredible thing?

“No, this won’t do, I must speak to the Dean about this matter.” Mad Demon Sect Mentor stopped pacing, looking at Mu Can; he had finally found such an excellent disciple, and he couldn’t just watch Mu Can ruin his own future.

It was unclear by what means Mad Demon Sect Mentor alerted the Dean, but it didn’t take long before the Dean rushed over in a hurry.

Without a word, he took hold of Mu Can’s wrist first.

“It’s indeed an Innate Dao Mark; this is troublesome.” The Dean also furrowed his brows.

But he simply examined Mu Can’s talent briefly, without thoroughly investigating the condition inside Mu Can’s body.

Unexpectedly, such a rare problem would occur in Mu Can.

“No, we must think of a solution.” Admonisher, the Demon Sage, looked earnestly at the Dean, afraid that the Dean might choose to give up on this disciple.

After all, repairing the Great Taoist Rift is, to this date, considered an impossible feat.

If the Great Taoist Rift cannot be repaired, Mu Can’s cultivation limit will be firmly set at the Wuwei Realm.

In this lifetime, to advance to the All Things Realm is almost impossible.

“No-Man’s Land, the Wanling Abyss.” The Dean suddenly turned to Admonisher, the Demon Sage, and spoke slowly.

The Wanling Abyss is a deep chasm found within the No-Man’s Land of the Supreme Interface by explorers from the All Things Realm.

Relatively speaking, the Wanling Abyss is much safer than other places in the No-Man’s Land.

But it is also filled with danger, and within the Abyss, there are various types of Spiritual Medicines

that even have a significant impact on cultivators at the All Things Realm.

Perhaps there lies a Spiritual Medicine in the Abyss that can heal the scars inside Mu Can’s body.

“It’s too dangerous, Dean, you cannot take this risk.” Admonisher, the Demon Sage, of course, had heard of the reputation of the Wanling Abyss.

While it is relatively safe, it is only relatively speaking; at least two cultivators of the All Things Realm have been buried beneath the depths of the Abyss.

“Both of my masters, do not take risks because of me, I believe that the Heavenly Dao does not seal off all paths; even the Great Taoist Rift will also have a glimmer of hope.”

Mu Can stood up; no matter what the situation in the Wanling Abyss, he could not allow the Dean to take risks on his behalf.

The dangers of the No-Man’s Land to those at the All Things Realm are obvious; if something happened to the Dean there, Mu Can felt he would be unsettled for a lifetime.

On the other hand, Mu Can did not take the so-called Great Taoist Rift too seriously.

With treasures like the Reincarnation Pearl, even if the path is broken, there is a way to forge another path.

“What a phrase, ‘the Heavenly Dao does not seal off all paths.'” The Dean’s eyes suddenly brightened, the more difficult the situation faced, the greater the harvest obtained.

The principle that greater effort leads to greater rewards also applies in the Supreme Interface.

If Mu Can could break through the Great Taoist Rift and succeed in becoming a cultivator of the All Things Realm, then he would likely become the strongest among the All Things Realm in the Divine Wind Academy.

“You need not say more, I will find some old friends to explore the Wanling Abyss, you do not need to worry about this, what you need to do now is to focus on your cultivation, remember your own words.” Having said that, the Dean left Admonisher’s courtyard, apparently to seek friends to examine the Wanling Abyss.

“Don’t worry, even if we can’t find Spiritual Medicine in the depths of the Wanling Abyss, your master will find a way to cure you.”

Admonisher knew that without the rift, as long as Mu Can doesn’t die prematurely, with his outstanding potential, advancing to the All Things Realm was only a matter of time.

But the Great Taoist Rift may not be completely irreparable.

“Come to me three times a week from now on, take the Elixirs I give you; I want to try to solve the Great Taoist Rift, even if it can’t be completely resolved, let it heal slowly.”

Admonisher looked at Mu Can, as if to give himself confidence.

“Thank you, Master.” Mu Can’s heart was secretly moved, these two masters had already done so much for a new disciple like him.
