Chapter 1181: Chapter 847: A Super Secret Technique to Advance to Golden Immortal Without Using Spiritual Objects?!

"Master, the person is waiting outside the building. Do you wish to see them?" At this moment, the child tasked with transmission cautiously inquired.

"Why didn’t you lead them to the Reception Hall? What kind of service is this?" Wang Zijia hadn’t even spoken when An Xingsheng immediately asked with a frown.

"The other party said it’s not necessary and that they would just like to meet the Master!" the child carefully replied.

"It seems the matter is quite urgent!" On hearing this, Wang Zijia immediately stood up and said,

"Let’s go and meet them. After all, he’s a renowned figure in the Taoist School these days. We shouldn’t make it seem as though our Taiching Palace is too high-and-mighty to approach."

Without a word, the child and An Xingsheng respectfully followed behind Wang Zijia.

...

Shortly after, Wang Zijia and his party approached the outside of the Immortal Cliff Residence and immediately spotted a burly man waiting quietly outside.

As Wang Zijia appeared, the man’s eyes brightened, and he quickly stepped forward to greet him just as he stepped out of the main gate, bowing, "I’ve finally gotten the chance to meet you in person, Pavilion Master Chi Yang!"

Wang Zijia responded with a smile and a return greeting, "I was away on an errand recently. If I’ve seemed neglectful, I hope Elder Qi can forgive me."

"Pavilion Master Chi Yang, you are too kind. It’s been me imposing upon you with my repeated visits," Qi Baidao replied. "Pavilion Master Chi Yang can call me Fellow Daoist. The title of Elder is much too great for me to bear."

...

After exchanging a few warm pleasantries, Wang Zijia then said, "It’s no good standing here talking. How about we go sit in my backyard?"

"There’s no need to sit," Qi Baidao said immediately. "To be frank, I’ve come today because there’s a rather urgent matter I need to discuss with Fellow Daoist Chi Yang."

"Oh?" Wang Zijia’s face showed a puzzled expression, but he solemnly added, "If there’s an issue, Fellow Daoist, feel free to speak. Given the contribution your sect has made in fighting Detrimental Mutations, as long as it’s within my power, I will not delay."

Qi Baidao, seeing that Wang Zijia had not yet spoken and was already showing such willingness, quietly breathed a sigh of relief. He hesitated briefly and then asked,

"I’ve heard that Fellow Daoist Chi Yang isn’t only skilled in alchemy but also proficient in purification? And that you have deep knowledge of treating certain special types of pollution—is this true?"

’Is this about rescue and treatment?’

After hearing this, Wang Zijia calmed himself and subtly nodded in agreement, "You could say that I have some proficiency in Dao cultivation."

"What about Dao Pollution for a Profound Immortal or, say, a golden immortal?" Qi Baidao pressed on immediately.

"Dao pollution? Are we talking about a Pollution from straying from the Path or a Detrimental Mutation tied to one’s rank?" Wang Zijia asked with a slight frown.

"Eh, it’s a bit of both!" Qi Baidao responded.

’A bit of both? How bad has it gotten?!’

Wang Zijia pondered for a moment and then replied, "That depends on the specific circumstances, but generally speaking... illnesses arising from Dao pollution... can be quite costly to treat, only miraculous measures can save them..."

Hearing this, a hopeful glint suddenly shone in Qi Baidao’s eyes as he grasped hope from Wang Zijia’s words.

"I am well aware of that!" he said and paused. But instead of continuing, he abruptly changed the subject with a complete 180-degree turn, "I’ve heard that you are seeking a Spiritual Object that embodies the Path?"

’Could it be...?’

Hesitation and difficulty momentarily appeared on Wang Zijia’s face, which was shortly replaced by a surge of Spiritual Light in his eyes as he asked, "Does your sect have it?"

Qi Baidao shook his head, "The treasure you seek is the stuff of legends; naturally, my sect does not possess it, but..."

Before Wang Zijia could react, Qi Baidao’s tone shifted as he continued,

"However, our sect has a great ancient secret method that doesn’t require a Spiritual Object to complete the ’Five Qi Waves to the Origin’, and it is absolutely free of side effects, belonging to the Righteous Path, not the Heterodox Dao."

"Really?" Wang Zijia pursued the matter immediately upon hearing this.

"I dare not deceive Fellow Daoist Chi Yang!" Qi Baidao replied.

"Let’s go, where is the patient? I can’t bear to see people suffering!" Wang Zijia quickly changed his calm demeanor to one of enthusiasm as he shifted the topic once more.

Qi Baidao, who was already quite anxious—likely because he’d been delaying while unable to find a solution, and the person in need of treatment could die at any moment—was naturally overjoyed at this response.

"This way, Fellow Daoist!" As he spoke, Qi Baidao pulled out a magic-driven flying vehicle and said, "I came in haste and did not bring a sect-issued vehicle, please excuse the inconvenience."

"No need for such trouble; if we are pressed for time, I have a faster way," Wang Zijia said.

As he spoke, with an outstretched hand, a void hole opened before him like a Space Gate, revealing through the portal a clear view of the Baiqi Sect’s peripheral islands Market Square.

Since acquiring the fifth Divine Power of space-time Escape Technique, Wang Zijia had become capable of opening direct Passage through space via Anchor Points to some extent.

Of course, it was nothing as exaggerated as traveling through myriad realms in the Chaotic Sea of Knowledge!

"Fellow Daoist is truly talented, able to directly connect the Floating Islands’ Great Arrays, forcefully breaking through the banned Space!" said Qi Baidao.

"It was rumored in the Taoist School that Fellow Daoist is a master of the Space-time Great Dao too, and I thought it was just a rumor. Now, seeing is believing, and it seems the rumors were too conservative."

"You flatter me too much! Please, after you."

With those words, the two men no longer hesitated, stepped through the Space Gate one after the other, and watched as the gate slowly contracted and disappeared.

An Xingsheng and the others left behind exchanged glances for a moment, then dispersed.

...

The two passed through the Space Gate and arrived within a Market Square.

This was a Satellite island among the group of islands belonging to the Baiqi Sect, a part of the central Floating Island of the Baiqi
