Becoming evil makes you ten times stronger, but becoming a demon gives you hundredfold strength-Chapter 445 - 348: The Future Vision, Present Actions_2
Now the Blood God Sect was formerly known as the Blood Demon Sect!
Paragraph after paragraph of text flowed past Meng Yu's eyes, and one path after another appeared before him.
Meng Yu had also reached the time when he needed to choose his path.
His accumulation of True Qi had long been sufficient to break through to the Eighth Layer of Foundation Establishment, but he had been deliberately suppressing it because he was always considering how to achieve his Golden Core.
The Four Great Sword Intents...in the past few days, he had once again gained a new understanding, expanding the other Sword Intents of Earth, Fire, Water, Wind, and even combined them into a fearsome technique. He had refined each of the four Sword Intents.
Long ago, he had prepared to use them for his Foundation Establishment.
But would achieving a First Grade Golden Core in this way truly be the best?
"With this path, your Nascent Soul will be worry-free, but as for Divinity Transformation...you really might not do as well if you didn't start by Growing Golden Lotus," said Mirror Twelve.
The road to cultivation gets increasingly demanding of one's Divine Soul the higher one goes, and many Superior Quality cultivation techniques emphasize this. Many cultivators do not invest vast amounts of time and energy into practicing lethal techniques but do so just for the realm and longevity.
The Four Great Sword Intents were very powerful, and when combined, they had tremendous lethality. However, what would be your path after reaching the Nascent Soul stage?
Others said he was the number one genius of the Immortal Sect, easily grasping Cultivation Techniques and the True Intent of Martial Arts, but he knew very well that his strength came from the tenfold enhancement of corruption and the hundredfold strength from Becoming a Demon, especially the enhancement from Growing Golden Lotus. Even though it seemed to provide only a slight improvement at the time, it brought him endless benefits later on.
There were many Cultivation Techniques available to him now, whether from the Immortal Sect or the Blood God Sect, whatever Divine Skill Secret Manuals from any sect he could request, but he still felt that he should choose a set that was more suitable for him.
The Four Great Sword Intents, first in lethality.
Growing Golden Lotus, the highest achievement he could reach, but alas, not enough combat power.
The Burning Lamp Technique was taught to him by Mirror Twelve, who also transformed one of his Fire Crows into a Golden Crow, strengthening his Sword Intent of Fire much more than the other three Great Sword Intents.
He really liked the Blood Transformation Divine Saber technique, and it fit him well. He felt that it could be integrated with his Sword Intent, and it was also a technique prepared for the upcoming tenfold and hundredfold enhancement.
As for the other miscellaneous techniques, Alchemy, Formation, Five Elements Small Techniques, and so on, they were not worth mentioning.
Which path should he choose?
...
The City Lord Mansion had a Spirit Vein, a Spirit Well, and all kinds of cultivation resources at its disposal.
Meng Yu was no longer managing official duties, having fully delegated authority to the Golden Cores, but in the eyes of others, this was a demonstration of his high virtue and esteem, eliciting willing submission and respect.
Some people worked cautiously and anxiously and couldn't resolve certain matters, but Meng Yu, as a hands-off manager, solved everything!
This kind of control, let's just say, even the Divinity Transformation cultivators of the Cultivation World would be immensely envious upon seeing it!
Since when could a Golden Core work so diligently without a single complaint?
Meng Yu had been in charge of Sleepless City for just forty-five days. At first, some people picked at him, or were otherwise disobedient, because in many people's hearts, Meng Yu's strength came from the Divinity Transformation and Golden Core cultivators behind him, believing that they could do better if they had such power.
But... after Sleepless City ran smoothly for the forty-fifth day, everyone looked at Meng Yu differently.
Li Hongzhang visited the United States, dressed in a yellow mandarin jacket, surrounded by various servants, and then witnessed the flourishing civilization, dumbstruck as a wooden chicken, while the citizens and powers of Sleepless City saw a truly heavenly place on earth!
What is heaven, apart from wealth, peace, and sufficiency but the people?
Two hundred Golden Cores carefully handled the daily routines, everyone equal and working hard to help each other, facing issues without shirking responsibility or seizing credit. The city's Spirit Stones and Magic Artifacts aren't hoarded, and everyone goes about their business tranquilly and steadily. Everything is so ordinary, just like the peaceful eras in many Minor Worlds.
And yet, this is what millions of benevolent people, even Nascent Soul and Divinity Transformation cultivators, have dreamt of in the Cultivation World for a million years!
The Golden Cores willingly play the role of the dutiful ox!
When someone once asked why this was the case, taking advantage of their familiarity, the unified answer from the Immortal Sect's Golden Cores was, "Long live the Young Master."
```
This wasn't a matter of one or two people, but a unanimous response from the Golden Cores. Their message was a thank you to Meng Yu for giving them the opportunity to earn Spirit Stones through work. Yet, outsiders could not help but admire Meng Yu's control.
Some even speculated whether Meng Yu had something enchanting about him, confusing the hearts of people. But that couldn't be possible. Golden Cores would never be enslaved, unless they were offered more money. And with each Golden Core's Divine Soul clear and lucid, appearing to be from an Orthodox Sect, how could they be manipulated by any mind-confounding spells?
One could only say that Meng Yu's Sect was truly formidable.
Meng Yu, with a blade of foxtail grass in his mouth, strolled around while pondering various matters.
He arrived at the Martial Arts Arena, and saw more than ten classes brimming with participants.
In an era where strength reigned supreme, no amount of Spirit Stones or gold and silver could compare to guiding others in their cultivation techniques and paths.
Meng Yu did not force the Golden Cores to mentor these individuals. Moreover, things that you'd think were ordinary could be shocking and extraordinary in another world, like Mirror twelve, which sparked inspiration in him and led to his Divinity Transformation...
Therefore, before coming here, an agreement was made.
Principally using the cultivation techniques from the Moon-Watching Sect and the Western Wastes' Sky-splitting Sword Sect, modified with Immortal Sect techniques, seven fundamental Cultivation Techniques were allowed to be taught—neutral, well-balanced, and worry-free. With proper practice combined with ample resources, one could reach Golden Core stage.
Additionally, there were twelve kinds of sword, spear, club, and staff techniques, ten Alchemy Techniques, and eight methods of nurturing the Divine Soul and Body Refinement.
Now, these ten or so classes were where Golden Cores would spend their spare time mentoring the deserving students below. Every day, a Golden Core would come to teach, and those with more merits could even ask questions.
"Have you encountered any difficulties in your recent cultivation progress?"
Meng Yu asked the people behind him.
"We're practicing the Blood River Divine Sword, but the Blood Transformation Divine Saber is just too difficult."
Meng Yu now had over a hundred guards and maids by his side. Upon completing their guard duties, they could choose their cultivation techniques using a points system, including three secret manuals from the Blood God Sect.
"There's no need to force the cultivation. The Blood River Divine Sword has a high threshold, and the Blood Transformation Divine Saber even more so. However, the modified Blood Shadow Divine Skill is quite good. It's not a technique of the Blood Demon Sect, but a proper cultivation method. You can practice it when you have the time."
Meng Yu was not worried about the leakage of the cultivation methods. In the past, he made a name for himself in a competition by overwhelming his teacher with White Crane Swordsmanship. Although the Blood River Divine Sword was powerful, it still came down to the individual's effort over its thirteen forms.
"These three techniques from the Blood God Sect focus on wholehearted dedication, prioritizing Divine Cultivation, leading with intent, merging Qi with the Divine Soul..."

Meng Yu explained the intricacies, allowing these people to grasp it more quickly.
The Blood God Sect, on the other hand, had always struggled to establish the Blood Knife Legion or the Blood Sword Battle Group, for the simple reason that life was too comfortable there.
The more decadent the place, the more beautiful are the flowers it brings forth. Similarly, for monks, the more competitive the environment, the more wonders emerge.
"In your daily practice, if there's anything unclear, you can ask me or the Golden Cores. As my maids, you have that privilege."
The ones accompanying him today were maids.
The maids and guards he recruited were not what others expected from someone in his position. Whereas others might have chosen daughters of powerful families, tender beauties ripe for the plucking, or clear and moving young girls - even various cauldrons - Meng Yu chose a group of rag-tag individuals.
For instance, the few behind him now,
Qi Cultivation Fourth Layer, possessing barely passable swordsmanship and Water Element spells, had barely managed to hold up a minor family, which was devastated by a beast tide three years earlier. Siblings, friends, and several hundred family members all perished, leaving only her and four others to survive, barely scraping by in Sleepless City.
Qi Cultivation Fifth Layer, without a master, from a Loose Cultivator background, had endured numerous hardships. Despite continuous effort, her practice faltered after losing a hand and a leg, falling into the quagmire.
Qi Cultivation Sixth Layer, had her limbs severed when Meng Yu rescued her.
Of course, there were others like Miss Mai, Su Qiaoxue, and so on...
Many of them were thirty-four or even older, with poor Spirit Roots, unstable foundations, injured meridians, and a hopeless future. Even their sword and saber skills were incredibly rudimentary.
In this world, they were considered trash, while Meng Yu was among the Celestial Beings.
