Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World Chapter 982 - 478: Developing the Seven-Colored Life Chart, Li Changsheng’s Path of Cultivation
Previously on Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World...
That's precisely why numerous Daoists in the forum have spotted extra allies and drawn them into the Huanyuan Alliance, sparking a massive jump in the forum's numbers.
In a single year, the count has already rocketed to three or four hundred.
Should this pattern hold, the Huanyuan Alliance's ranks are set to swell even further.
Naturally, they can't spot other Life Chart cultivators by themselves; they must still depend on the Ten Thousand Treasures Token's capabilities.
By tapping into the Ten Thousand Treasures Token's strength, it's possible to detect if someone else holds a Life Chart.
When a Life Chart is present, the Ten Thousand Treasures Token's power can then trigger the Life Chart in that individual.
This works thanks to the destiny force tied to Jiang Fan.
Once the Ten Thousand Treasures Hall is refined, its power can be unleashed to connect with every Ten Thousand Treasures Token, and from there, via causal links, a bit of destiny is spent to uncover Life Charts in others.
In essence, the Huanyuan Alliance's cultivators are borrowing Jiang Fan's talents to identify Life Chart holders and even ignite their Life Charts.
This has notably lightened Jiang Fan's burdens.
Through these Huanyuan Alliance members, Jiang Fan gets help in tracking down additional Life Chart cultivators.
"Refining the Ten Thousand Treasures Token means forming a pact with the Huanyuan Alliance."
"No sharing of Huanyuan Alliance details with any cultivator is permitted."
"This sharply cuts the risk of Huanyuan Alliance secrets spilling out, turning it into a hidden group."
"Still, it's definitely a positive development."
"Should those great clans catch wind of the Huanyuan Alliance, it could stir up serious issues."
"That said, with the former Talisman Daoist’s expertise, he probably wouldn't back down from them anyway."
Li Changsheng isn't too bothered by the contract binding; sure, it limits them a touch, yet it guarantees the security of all Huanyuan Alliance members.
At the very least, there's no fear of betrayal from within the Huanyuan Alliance.
For Li Changsheng, protection comes first and foremost.
"Even so, hunting for Life Chart cultivators to rack up contribution points feels way too tough."
Li Changsheng can't help but feel frustrated.
He had hoped to seek out fellow Life Chart cultivators at the start, yet after roaming the area nearby, not a single one turned up.
This clearly shows how incredibly scarce Life Chart cultivators really are.
That doesn't mean high-level cultivators must have Life Charts, of course.
Plenty of top cultivators lack Life Charts entirely.
Still, regardless of the angle, those with Life Charts tend to boast superior aptitude.
Mastering a Life Chart's full might lets one surge ahead at speeds no regular cultivator could match.
"Hm?!"
Right then, Li Changsheng glances at the forum posts. A new thread pops up from Sun Wuming, titled: Discussion on How Life Chart Cultivators Cultivate.
Before long, the crowd boosts it to the top spot, with loads of Huanyuan Alliance Daoists jumping in to chat about it.
Li Changsheng wastes no time clicking to read it.
"Fellow Daoists, I'm Sun Wuming. Since Lord Alliance Leader awakened my Life Chart, I've come to sense its mighty potential more and more. It's a unique gift embedded in our very souls.
Though Lord Alliance Leader sorts Life Charts by ranks, fully unlocking any Life Chart's possibilities means even a low-rank one can rival a high-rank version, brimming with boundless marvels.
Take mine—it's a high-rank Life Chart, famous across vast distances. To nurture it, I need heaps of renown. The bigger the reputation, the more explosive the Life Chart's growth.
In the past, I kept a low profile and stayed obscure, which tanked my cultivation aptitude and insight, dooming me to never reach the upper echelons in this life.
But after my Life Chart awakened, I started drawing attention boldly, spreading my name far and wide. That unleashed the Life Chart's full power. In this last year, my aptitude and insight have soared beyond belief. If my fame blanketed the entire Spirit Ruins Realm, my talents might dominate the whole realm.
So, fellow Daoists aiming to boost their cultivation ought to pick the right route and keep nurturing their Life Chart. That path brings swift gains; ignore it, and you'll sweat twice as hard for half the payoff."
Clearly, Sun Wuming shared every bit of his year-long journey in honing his Life Chart, sparing no details.
It quickly turned him into a big name inside the Huanyuan Alliance.
Truth be told, that was his goal all along—a clever way to build fame and fuel his special Life Chart.
This forms the core of his cultivation journey.
"Fellow Daoist Sun hits the mark. Truly, the top perk of awakening a Life Chart is grasping your own gifts. Only then can you focus your energies smartly for maximum gains with minimal grind. My Life Chart is a low-rank one called Dragon Essence and Tiger Spirit, granting me a mighty body and surging vitality.
The shame was not knowing it sooner, blind to my strengths, and stupidly chasing the way of the Sword Cultivator. Naturally, that sword path was a total disaster, lacking any real knack for it.
Once I uncovered my Life Chart, I switched gears right away to Body Cultivation, diving into body-refining arts, and progress exploded—each day felt like adding wings to a tiger's leap.
Without spotting my true talents, who'd know how long I'd have squandered? Good thing it's still early days."
