Chapter 2015: Chapter 2015
Time passes silently.
Unknowingly, five thousand years have slipped by.
A large group of Nascent Soul Cultivators stood up and saluted.
Clearly, they were seasoned cultivators between domains, their every move should seem unfathomable, having experienced countless vicissitudes of life.
But in reality, these Nascent Soul Cultivators displayed an innocent charm, standing rigidly like obedient children, reminiscent of primary school students.
This was somewhat perplexing.
In fact, this situation is not uncommon in the eyes of cultivators who have experienced even longer time.
No matter how seasoned a cultivator is, they often exhibit a certain childishness in front of their mentors and parents, a trait that is difficult to change throughout their lives.
"Sit down, students."
Jiang Ding waved his hand.
A large group of Nascent Soul Cultivators obediently sat down.
Jiang Ding carefully observed these students he had been with for many years.
The Vermilion Bird Daoist looks like an adult now, graceful and poised, as well as other students like the Heavenly Calculation Daoist, every student here is a Daoist, with deep foundations laid by their predecessors, making them inherently extraordinary.
The number of Daoists was two hundred ninety-seven.
True Daoists, not Dao Fruit Daoists.
They are an incredibly formidable force, even though they are still young, only at the Divinity Transformation Stage, now just starting to get involved in the True Immortal Technique, yet already demonstrating remarkable innovative abilities, every day revealing endless new ideas, astonishing even the Dari Swordsman.
Through cultivating these Daoists, Jiang Ding accumulated a wealth of teaching experience.
If next time, in the current Vermilion Bird Star Realm, he has some confidence in identifying the hidden seeds from various Immortal Sects within it, nurturing them once again into true Daoists to work for him.
Though people are not from this timeline, the time rift cannot impact the present, yet seeds remain seeds, the difference is actually not that significant, though there may be insufficient resources for cultivation.
"Today, is the time for everyone to graduate as a master’s degree student."
"Some students will stay in academia, continue nurturing the new generation of the Vermilion Bird Star Realm, some will go into industry, some wish to take up leadership roles, managing governmental affairs, and surprisingly, someone even wants to join the army, to fight and conquer the world... Aren’t you Magic Cultivators?"
Jiang Ding asked with some confusion.
The students burst into laughter.
"You are just too biased."
The Vermilion Bird Daoist said with some dissatisfaction, "Magic Cultivators are not afraid of battle, within Magic Cultivation there are traditions that enjoy fighting, needing growth through combat."
"Alright, I was prejudiced."
Jiang Ding admitted his mistake, looking at the thirty-two Daoists about to step onto the battlefield.
The Heavenly Armor Daoist saluted.
The White Bone Daoist, Ghost Daoist, and others saluted.
"Since you want to go to the battlefield, then go, but pay attention to safety."
"Also, do not let the instincts of the cultivation method influence you, strictly adhere to the law, use legally permitted materials to refine treasures and elixirs, etc."
Jiang Ding softly instructed.
These unorthodox cultivation methods were naturally strictly restricted in usage at the Vermilion Bird Grand Academy, at least for now, these students are still pure-hearted.
"Teacher, we will remember."
The Heavenly Armor Daoist and others saluted.
"I wish you all a bright future, to courageously ascend the heights of the Immortal Path."
"Simultaneously, regardless of the field you choose, the research in the Immortal Path must not be discontinued, this is the natural duty of every cultivator in the Vermilion Bird Star Realm, without the courage to explore the unknown Immortal Path, eventually, we will fall behind others and face destruction..."
Jiang Ding sincerely advised each student, awarding them their degree certificates one by one.
He took a picture with each student, inquired about their future plans, provided his opinions, and reminded them to be cautious about their safety.
After much time, the graduation ceremony concluded, and the students cheered as they left.
The Vermilion Bird Grand Academy suddenly felt a bit empty.
This situation won’t last long, more students will arrive here in the future, they may not be Daoists, but they are also the elite talents in the Vermilion Bird Star Realm, destined to become the future strong in the Immortal Path, continuously producing the talent needed for Immortal Dao research in the Vermilion Bird Star Realm.
Here, in the future, will become the cradle of great Immortal Dao Scientists of the Vermilion Bird Star Realm.
Magic Cultivation, an indispensable path in the Immortal Path.
Compared to the life-and-death situations of Sword Cultivators, their path is more systematic and stable, capable of generating new Immortal Dao theories, Immortal Dao knowledge, the progress of the Immortal Path is not just between life and death, this is why Magic Cultivation is known as the cornerstone of Human Race’s Immortal Path.
A well-structured, advanced, and efficient, large-scale Magic Cultivation system, has great benefits for the progress of Sword Dao.
After the students had left, the figure of the Fusang Saintess gradually appeared behind the Dari Swordsman.
Her eyes were filled with anticipation, she had waited too long.
"What do you say, about cultivating more Daoists?"
Daoists, are indeed extremely useful.
Strong potential, strong creativity, promising future, though the top elites might have been chosen, the remaining elites are not far behind.
If given a Dao Child Level of cultivation, their future wouldn’t be much different, these are all rare talents, greatly helpful in inferring True Immortal Techniques.
"Why do you have such a strange thought?"
The Fusang Saintess looked at him somewhat curiously, "A Daoist isn’t just created with a Magic Tool Embryo, subsequent cultivation often requires an entire Immortal Sect’s decades of accumulation, mountains and seas of Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure, as well as extremely rare non-renewable Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure over a period of time, such a vast array of Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure is needed to make a Daoist."
"A Daoist, is not merely an elite talent."
"It also represents the culmination of decades of an Immortal Sect’s foundation concentrated on one individual."
"Can you afford to raise so many Daoists?"
This is an exceedingly extravagant path, one could say its cost-effectiveness is non-existent, the only advantage is it’s stable and controllable, with a high probability of producing a strong individual to support the sect in the future.
Jiang Ding sighed lightly.
This is why the Xianmen Sect never wishes to cultivate typical Immortal Sect Disciples, it’s not because the tradition is unavailable, but because a Daoist would consume the entire sect’s resources to be born, otherwise, it would just be an odd existence without much utility, violating the principles of the Xianmen Sect.
Namely, why would all the citizens’ wealth, the entire tax revenue of the Xianmen Sect be used on a cultivator without merit?
Just because their talent is good?
And what does their talent have to do with the general public!
This is an untouchable reversed scale for the Xianmen Sect, growth of a super individual is possible, but not by using public resources, only the path of collective will be advocated.
However, the collective Immortal Path cultivation, among the numerous traditions and paths of Immortal Sects across the Endless Starry Sky, has yet to have successful evidence...
"To find your Time Treasure, that is something long promised to you."
Jiang Ding no longer pondered much.
The surroundings blurred, creating ripple-like dream realms, surrounding the Fusang Saintess, flying towards a distant direction.
