Sect Master’s Immortal Journey

Chapter 603: Mother - Child Transmission Disc

After the joy of Shocking ThunderSpirit General's successful recovery of the Gold Core cultivation base did not last long, he was made anxious by a series of refining tasks arranged by Sect Master Meng Zhang.

Although Shocking ThunderSpirit General has always been proud and occasionally shows an air of seniority, he still unconditionally obeys the orders issued by Sect Master.

As Taiyi Sect continues to grow, the number of Gold Core cultivators in the sect increases. The origins of several Guardian Spirit Generals are not deliberately kept secret by Meng Zhang, and many high-ranking members of the sect have some knowledge of it. They show great respect to these senior members who have experienced Taiyi Sect's history.

Delicate WaterSpirit General is excessively arrogant, and there are not many people in the sect who can gain her favor.

Extreme Sword Spirit General prefers to be alone and his whereabouts are mysterious. Even Sect Master Meng Zhang sometimes cannot find him.

In comparison, Shocking ThunderSpirit General is not as amiable as Deep EarthSpirit General, but he is not particularly difficult to get along with. He has gradually gathered some like-minded fellow disciples around him.

In the past, when he was in a good mood, Shocking ThunderSpirit General used to refine or repair magic tools for his fellow disciples. Now, more refining tasks fall on his shoulders, but they don't cause too much trouble for him.

After handling the matters of Shocking ThunderSpirit General, Meng Zhang sent someone to invite Extreme Sword Spirit General.

This time, Meng Zhang was lucky; Extreme Sword Spirit General had returned from outside not long ago. Since the peace was restored around Taiyi Sect, Extreme Sword Spirit General had not spent many days within the sect. Most of his time was spent wandering outside.

Although the four Guardian Spirit Generals all hold the title of elders, not everyone is assigned specific duties. Generals like Delicate WaterSpirit General and Extreme Sword Spirit General are not willing to take up positions within the sect. However, Taiyi Sect currently has sufficient manpower, and they are not essential. Meng Zhang respects their wishes and allows them to wander outside.

Moreover, due to the sect's benevolent merit system, if they want to obtain benefits from the sect, they must also contribute to the sect.

In fact, all four Guardian Spirit Generals have made significant contributions to Taiyi Sect and have accumulated considerable merit.

Extreme Sword Spirit General, for example, occasionally guides the sect's cultivators, including Gold Core cultivators, and earns a large amount of merit in return.

Upon hearing Sect Master Meng Zhang's summons, Extreme Sword Spirit General quickly appeared before him. Before Meng Zhang could speak, Extreme Sword Spirit General's face was full of unconcealable joy as he presented three worn-out plates like precious treasures.

The three plates consisted of one large and three small ones, with the large one being the size of a washbasin and the small one being the size of a rice bowl. From their appearance, it seemed that the three plates originated from the same source.

The plates were covered in rust and showed signs of damage, with several large and small gaps on their surfaces.

Seeing Meng Zhang's slightly puzzled expression, Extreme Sword Spirit General enthusiastically started to explain without waiting for him to ask.

Don't judge these three plates by their appearance, they may look shabby and unremarkable, but their origin is extraordinary. These three plates are a set, precisely the legendary Mother - Child Transmission Disc in the Cultivation World.

Speaking of the Mother - Child Transmission Disc, one must first mention long-distance Transmission Formations. Although Meng Zhang has never seen one, he has heard of them for a long time.

Short-distance teleportation is not uncommon in the Cultivation World, as there are many methods to achieve it. However, long-distance teleportation has always been a major challenge.

In the Middle-Earth Continent, where the cultivation civilization is highly advanced, many powerful sects possess long-distance Transmission Formations. As the name suggests, these formations can transport individuals across vast distances, achieving instantaneous movement even if the two locations are thousands of miles apart.

For example, Taiyi Sect's territory is vast, stretching from the Endless Sea of Sand to the Demon Wind Gobi, covering thousands of miles. To control such a vast territory, Taiyi Sect established numerous strongholds as the backbone and connected them using flying boats.

If the territory continues to expand, the cost of maintaining control will increase. Jiuqu League, for instance, faces difficulty in controlling the peripheral areas due to its vast territory.

The extent of a sect's effective control over territory depends on communication and transportation. Common communication methods in the Cultivation World, such as talismans and flying swords, have limitations in distance and speed. The same restrictions apply to commonly used means of transportation, such as flying boats and flying mounts.

Having a long-distance Transmission Formation can resolve all these issues. For a sect, possessing such a formation holds significant strategic importance, as it can expand the controllable territory many times over.

However, the sects in the Middle-Earth Continent that can refine long-distance Transmission Formations strictly control their usage and rarely allow them to be leaked to the outside world. Self-refining also presents numerous challenges that are difficult to overcome.

Firstly, the relevant knowledge required to refine long-distance Transmission Formations is strictly kept secret by those major cultivation sects, and it is not disclosed to outsiders.

Secondly, the process requires many precious materials. Among them, the most crucial and irreplaceable material is the "Boundary-Destroying Dust." This substance can only be obtained when a world is about to be destroyed, an exceedingly rare occurrence.

World destruction is an extremely rare event that even a Grand Dust World cultivator with immense power and lifespan may not encounter.

The alternative approach is to search for small worlds on the verge of destruction. In such cases, there is a high possibility of acquiring Boundary-Destroying Dust, such as those left behind by sects like the Purple Gold Sect.

Small worlds are incredibly valuable, and any sect possessing one treats it as a treasure, protecting it from destruction at all costs.

The collection of Boundary-Destroying Dust from such a world is challenging and requires the abilities of an extraordinary Primordial Spirit True Monarch. The scarcity of this material makes mass production of long-distance Transmission Formations nearly impossible.

Lastly, every use of the long-distance Transmission Formation consumes a large quantity of high-grade spirit stones and varying amounts of Void Nether Stones, depending on the distance of the transmission.

Void Nether Stone is a core material required to refine space-type magic tools. The common storage bags used by cultivators, for instance, are crafted from fragments of Void Nether Stone.

Void Nether Stone is also extremely precious, and there is no large-scale production of it near Jiuqu League.

Due to the scarcity of Void Nether Stone, space-type magic tools produced in Jiuqu League are expensive and of average quality.

Meng Zhang's Hundred Grass Pavilion, acquired from the Layered Mystery Sect, is a rare item in Jiuqu League, and few Primordial Spirit powers can produce similar items.

Because of these difficulties, long-distance Transmission Formations are rarely seen in Jiuqu League, Yuanzu Great Prairie, Crossing Severing Mountain Range, and even Dali Dynasty.

Occasionally, a few finished long-distance Transmission Formations have made their way from the Middle-Earth Continent, but they are regarded as treasures and kept secret by major powers.

The Mother - Child Transmission Disc presented by Extreme Sword Spirit General is a specially engraved array plate containing the long-distance Transmission Formation.
