Wen Tan Research Center.

Basement Level 3, Main Laboratory.

It’s already October 12th. These past two days, Su Yu and the others have barely left the building, some healing, others cultivating.

Bai Feng’s injuries have healed considerably, but with his Divine Runes shattered, his combat power has indeed declined significantly.

Bai Feng isn’t too concerned, taking it easy, occasionally sneaking peeks at Su Yu’s Willpower Essays. Anyway, Su Yu has plenty of Willpower Essays, and Bai Feng doubts his disciple even remembers how many he has.

However, today Bai Feng isn’t stealing peeks at the Willpower Essays.

Rarely having time to spare, and soon having to leave this place again for the Battlefield of the Heavens, he finally remembers he’s still a teacher.

“Today I’ll teach you my recently developed Divine Rune Combat Technique Disassembly Technique!”

Bai Feng says to Su Yu. Not far away, Hong Tan is pretending to cultivate… it’s clearly fake. He’s embarrassed to be a student of his own student, so he’s pretending to cultivate while eavesdropping.

Su Yu and Bai Feng don’t expose him. If their Grandmaster is exposed, he’ll really start hitting people.

Bai Feng speaks, showing a small sword.

Very small!

Only 4 light spots!

“Back then, my Divine Rune core had 12 Divine Runes, and after I reached the Sky Soaring Realm, I outlined 16 Divine Runes, for a total of 28 Divine Runes!”

“During the battle with Xia Yuwen, I shattered 24 Divine Runes to severely injure him. That guy really had some strength.”

Bai Feng praises, “Xia Yuwen is known as invincible in the same realm, which is true. He’s very powerful. The weaker Sky Soaring fifth or sixth level cultivators in the academy might not be a match for him. What does this prove?”

Su Yu instantly understands, chuckling, “It proves that Teacher is unmatched in combat power! If it really came down to it, you could instantly kill Sky Soaring fifth or sixth level cultivators!”

“Exactly!”

Bai Feng is about to give him a thumbs up. It’s good to have a smart disciple; he said what I didn’t say.

Nearby, Hong Tan looks suspiciously at Su Yu.

This kid… doesn’t seem honest anymore!

“Of course, the price I paid was high. 24 Divine Runes. To be honest, no one else would be willing to shatter that many.”

Bai Feng says simply, then continues, “Divine Rune Combat Technique Disassembly isn’t just about simple, forceful disassembly! If that were the case, then a large group of multi-Divine Rune powerhouses would have already mastered it, and it wouldn’t have been up to me to discover it!”

“The ability to disassemble Divine Runes was actually inspired by Talent Divine Runes. If they can be combined, then naturally they can be disassembled!”

Bai Feng says seriously, “How to disassemble them without shattering the Divine Rune Combat Technique? How to disassemble them so that the disassembled Divine Rune Combat Technique still possesses the power of a combat technique? Even your Grandmaster doesn’t understand this. I…”

Su Yu looks at him sympathetically. In the past, when Grandmaster wasn’t home, you could say whatever you wanted.

Now, he’s sitting right there.

Hong Tan, to the side, closes his eyes, as if he didn’t hear anything.

Bai Feng is a little embarrassed, clearing his throat and saying, “Let’s not talk about that, let’s get straight to the point: how to disassemble!”

Saying that, he takes out his Dragon Slaying Sword, which only has 4 Divine Runes left.

“Each Divine Rune is different, possessing different characteristics, different powers, different strengths…”

Bai Feng stops talking about other things and begins to deduce for Su Yu how to disassemble the combat technique without shattering it, so that it can still possess the power of a combat technique afterward.

“Even a combat technique formed from a single Divine Rune is stronger than a single Divine Rune. Do you know why?”

Su Yu shakes his head.

Bai Feng smiles and says, “A single Divine Rune, in theory, doesn’t count as a combat technique; it can only be called a single Divine Rune. Why is it stronger than an ordinary Divine Rune? Because the Divine Rune Combat Techniques you disassemble have connections to each other: a kind of resonance!”

“Zhao Li’s old ghost has a Hundred Sword Box, you know that, right?”

Su Yu nods.

“His Hundred Sword Box, at its strongest, can form a hundred-sword array! Resonance, superposition! And Divine Rune Combat Techniques are like that too!”

As he speaks, Bai Feng instantly disassembles his Dragon Slaying Sword into 4 small swords.

These 4 small swords surround Su Yu, their movements identical!

Just with different characteristics!

One has a freezing effect, one has a sharp aura, one has an intent of destruction…

“That’s the difference!”

Bai Feng demonstrates. The 4 small swords erupt simultaneously, their movements consistent, their powers consistent!

“They can form an array!”

Su Yu nods, thinking for a moment before saying, “Teacher, sometimes, in the Single Divine Rune system, there are Divine Rune combinations, such as ‘Wind, Fire, Mountain, Forest.’ Is it similar to that?”

“More or less!”

Bai Feng nods and says, “Actually, they’re borrowing from our Divine Rune Fusion system from back then. After your Grandmaster introduced this system, the Single Divine Rune system started to borrow it. Of course, they also developed and researched some of it themselves, but the core is still based on the Divine Rune Characteristic Fusion Method introduced by your Grandmaster.”

At this time, Hong Tan, who was to the side, opens his mouth, “Divine Rune Characteristic Fusion was not created by me, but rather it’s based on data left behind by your Great-Great-Grandfather. The data was incomplete, and I perfected it and introduced the system.”

The data left behind by the Fifth Generation was used to develop it.

Su Yu nods. That’s right, Hong Tan was so young back then, it would have been too difficult to independently introduce a new system. But being able to improve upon the research left behind by the Fifth Generation is also very impressive.

His Master and Grandmaster give Su Yu the feeling that they embody the true image of a Civilization Master in his mind.

Before enrolling in the academy, Su Yu thought that Civilization Masters, even if they were powerful, should spend most of their time in the laboratory doing research.

But after arriving at the academy, it seems like there aren’t many teachers like that.

Zhao Li counts as one; he’s usually forging weapons in the research institute.

Bai Feng definitely counts; he practically stays cooped up and doesn’t come out.

He doesn’t know many other teachers, but there are quite a few who like to stay in the research institute, but there are also quite a few who wander around outside all day.

Bai Feng ignores his Master and continues, “The Divine Rune Combat Technique you outline has a full 18 core bases…”

“Hmm?”

Hong Tan, who was to the side, says in surprise, “How many?”

Bai Feng glances at his teacher, feeling a little depressed, and says annoyedly, “Teacher, weren’t you going to go into secluded cultivation? Weren’t you going to break through to the Sun Moon realm? Go! I’m teaching a class!”

I finally managed to give my student a lesson, and you keep asking questions. How annoying!

“I’m so annoyed by irresponsible teachers like you!”

Hong Tan, holding back his anger, glared at him, “Fine!

Alright, I won’t say a word!”

18 basic divine runes!

As many as his senior brother!

Su Yu ignored all that, pretending not to see it, and hesitated, “Teacher, according to what you said, it can be split and supplemented later! Then is there really much difference between outlining 18 or 88 runes in the later stages? For example, if I outline 99 runes now, and I split out 9 to advance to the Soaring stage, then outline 90 more after Soaring, wouldn’t this 99 basic divine rune combat skill be of little use?”

“There’s still a difference!”

Bai Feng explained, “The Soaring stage will have a chance to solidify the divine rune combat skill. That’s why we insisted on outlining it before the Soaring stage! Solidification is actually like strengthening your divine rune combat skill once! For example, you said you outlined 99 divine rune combat skills. If you split them and use the 9 runes to form a combat skill to advance, then these 9 runes will get a chance to solidify. Even if you can outline them after Soaring, you’ll still miss out on that opportunity!”

Su Yu nodded, he understood that. “So how big is the gap in strength after one solidification?”

“Huge!”

Bai Feng explained again, “Under normal circumstances, it’s like one advancement! For example, me, I advanced with 12 divine runes back then. After solidification, all 12 runes entered the second tier. Before that, they were all in the first tier. But later, the 16 divine runes I outlined at the Soaring stage, I spent several years, and I still haven’t completed the advancement of all of them to the second tier.”

“So it’s just a matter of time?”

“Nonsense, the power of a divine rune combat skill is closely related to the level of the divine runes. If your level is strong, it will naturally be strong!”

“Then subsequent advancements are possible too?”

“Yes, but it requires a lot of time and resources.”

“…”

The two of them asked and answered, while Hong Tan listened silently from the side, feeling somewhat gratified.

It seemed like it had been a long time since the Multi-Divine Rune lineage had seen such a scene of teacher and student questioning and answering, monitored by the grandmaster.

As for Chen Yong’s student, Wu Jia… Chen Yong was verbose, while Wu Jia only listened and didn’t ask.

Gradually, Su Yu understood a lot of things and comprehended many things.

Bai Feng then said, “You’ve outlined 5 divine runes now…”

“6 tickets!”

“…”

Bai Feng looked at him, and Su Yu looked back at Bai Feng.

What’s wrong?

Is there a problem?

It’s 6!

Bai Feng felt that he could be calm about it, no big deal!

Last time it was 5, this time 6 is normal!

“Are they human race divine runes?”

“Yes!”

“Then you can try to see if you can peel these 6 divine runes out of the entire divine rune combat skill!”

Bai Feng was too lazy to say anything else and continued, “If you peel them out, form a small knife… By the way, have you named your divine rune combat skill? It’s best to give it a name, like me, Dragon Slaying Sword, everyone knows what it is when the sword is drawn!”

“Name it?”

Su Yu had never really thought about this. Now that Bai Feng mentioned it, Su Yu thought for a moment and hesitated, “How about calling it Sealing Blade?”

“…”

What does that mean?

Bai Feng looked at him, confused. This name… he couldn’t understand it.

Su Yu whispered, “When I draw the blade, I shout ‘Sealing Blade emerges,’ and the enemy thinks I’m on the sealing path, but I’m not. The enemy thinks I’m going to seal him, but I just kill him with one strike. Teacher, what do you think?”

“…”

Bai Feng was speechless, and Hong Tan looked at the sky. I was wrong!

Is this great-grandstudent of mine an honest person?

I’m blind!

Just from the name of the blade, he felt that he was absolutely blind!

“Sealing Blade…”

Bai Feng murmured, suddenly regretting, “It seems like it, why is mine called Dragon Slaying Sword! People know my blade as soon as they hear it, it’s definitely a blade of slaughter! What a pity!”

That makes sense!

Deceiving the enemy is so good.

“Sealing Blade… good! Very good!”

Giving his disciple a compliment, Bai Feng nodded and said, “Don’t you have a word soldier too? Call it Sealing Blade too?”

“Yes!”

Su Yu nodded and said, “Call it that too. When I become famous one day, and the Sealing Blade becomes famous, even if everyone knows that I’m on the path of slaughter, but they’ve never seen me, they’ve only heard the name of my blade, they’ll have some misunderstanding.”

“Not bad!”

Bai Feng laughed and then said, “You can split out the 6 divine runes first and form a small Sealing Blade, then integrate it into your word soldier! That way, you can use the power of the entire combat skill! This is a divine rune combat skill, and its combat power will increase a lot, although it’s not as good as the complete version, it’s definitely stronger than before!”

“And in this way, you can actually advance if you want to, even enter the Soaring stage, and supplement the rest at the Soaring stage!”

Su Yu didn’t say anything. Entering the Soaring stage is a chance to strengthen it.

If you advance with 99 divine runes, then all of them will be upgraded to second-tier divine runes.

But if you advance now, and you only outline first-tier divine runes at the Soaring stage, then you will have to spend countless time to nurture them later.

Of course, it can be used as a means.

At a critical moment, you can choose to advance.

Next, Bai Feng explained in detail how to split and how to combine.

Finally, he reminded, “I don’t know if the divine runes can be successfully refilled after they explode. You wait for me to succeed before trying it, otherwise the power of the divine rune combat skill will be greatly reduced!”

Hong Tan couldn’t help but get angry this time, “Try what? Try self-detonating divine runes? Are you sick? You’re teaching your student to detonate divine runes?”

What is this guy talking about!

Bai Feng was speechless. You’re interfering even when I’m teaching a student. You old guys are really nosy.

Do you know how fierce your great-grandstudent is?

Forget it, you don’t know anything!

Ignoring him, Bai Feng continued, “Also, divine rune combat skills should be able to combine divine runes later, just like combining divine acupoints and Yuan Qi acupoints. I think the divine rune path should also have an important unique skill called Divine Rune Combination!”

“One divine rune, one combat skill!”

As soon as these words came out, Hong Tan’s body trembled slightly, and he didn’t speak again.
And Su Yu’s eyes lit up, “Teacher, is this the formation method of innate divine runes? Innate divine runes are different because the divine runes are different, the quantity is different, the characteristics are different, and the final synthesized divine runes are different?”

“That’s right!”

Bai Feng smiled and said, “What I’m giving now is just theoretical knowledge, a framework structure, not a specific operation method! Divine runes should also be able to be combined, such as the Dragon-Slaying Sword, which will probably require 12 divine runes to be combined into a new divine rune in the end. At that time, it will probably be my true main divine rune! Of course, I can find a way to continue to expand this system and increase the basic divine runes!”

“This is the same as the mountains and seas in the warrior’s path, one aperture one martial skill, one aperture one cultivation method. And the divine rune path, at that time, will be one divine rune one combat skill, one divine rune, one talent!”

Many times, a theory can promote the development of the entire system.

Many academics are derived from a theoretical study.

Su Yu’s eyes shone brightly and said, “Teacher, so that means the human race’s innate divine runes are different. Can those innate divine runes also unleash innate martial skills?”

Bai Feng smiled and said, “You’ve entered a misunderstanding. Innate divine runes unleashing innate skills doesn’t necessarily mean they have to be martial skills. Willpower martial skills are also martial skills, understand?”

Su Yu suddenly understood!

That’s right, other races also have innate skills that are willpower martial skills.

At this moment, Su Yu felt that he had gained a lot. After thinking about it, he asked again, “Teacher, I have opened a lot of Origin Apertures, but my Origin Apertures are not a system. At most, only 108 apertures form a system. Can I change my cultivation method to fully unleash the power of my opened apertures?”

“How many have you opened now?”

“186!”

“…”

Bai Feng was used to it and pretended not to hear it. 186, so what.

Hong Tan, on the other hand, had a headache.

Is this my grand-disciple?

Damn!

Where did he come from? Could he really be my senior brother’s illegitimate son?

That’s not right. I’ve seen Su Yu’s father on the battlefield, and the father and son have a slight resemblance.

Bai Feng was still pondering, but Hong Tan opened his mouth and said, “Show me the bursting apertures. Let me see which ones you’ve opened out of the 186 apertures!”

Su Yu didn’t hesitate and dispersed the shadow divine runes that concealed the apertures.

In the next moment, 186 light spots burst out all over his body!

Pure Yuan Qi!

Bright Apertures!

He had learned the “Pure Yuan Art” and had opened all the apertures. Now, without the Brightlight Bird’s essence blood, he could purify his own Yuan Qi and apertures, even the newly opened 6 apertures were extremely bright at this moment.

Hong Tan was really surprised this time!

Having many opened apertures is one thing, but the Yuan Qi is also so pure, and the apertures have no mixed power. This… this would be an unparalleled genius if he were in the War Academy!

“186…”

He looked at it, especially at Su Yu’s leg apertures, and frowned, “This… the leg forms a small circulation, and it feels like it’s mixed with some other power… Is this… the power of time?”

Frowning, did he see it wrong?

That can’t be right?

This is a martial skill, right?

Looking at Su Yu, Hong Tan looked at Bai Feng again, “Is this a Heaven-Rank martial skill?”

Su Yu and Bai Feng looked at each other, and Su Yu showed a questioning look. Teacher, should I say it?

Su Yu coughed lightly and said, “Grand-Master, it’s a Heaven-Rank martial skill!”

“It feels quite strong!”

Hong Tan thought for a while and said, “This cultivation method… this martial skill… let me think, I might have seen it before.”

Su Yu coughed lightly again and said, “Grand-Master, it’s a martial skill called “Time,” shattering mountains and seas, suppressing suns and moons…”

“I know!”

Hong Tan interrupted him and said in surprise, “It’s his martial skill! That guy… cough cough, that adult, is not weak. How did his martial skill end up with you?”

“When did you meet him?”

Bai Feng asked curiously, “Teacher, who is it?”

Hong Tan is so polite, obviously, the other party is very powerful!

Hong Tan’s expression was slightly strange and said, “The Silkworm-Extinguishing King!”

“…”

What kind of name is that?

Su Yu doesn’t recognize it!

Never heard of it!

Bai Feng also thought about it, shook his head, doesn’t recognize it, there is no such a manor among the thirty-six manors.

“Cough cough, he wasn’t called that name originally, he changed it himself later!”

Hong Tan didn’t say much. Not many people know about this, and it was told to them when Fifth Generation was around.

Ever since someone was swallowed by the Dragon Silkworm King, and then pulled out again, that person completely hated the Dragon Silkworm King and changed his name to the Silkworm-Extinguishing King. This matter… an anecdote among the Invincible, Fifth Generation knew about it because Fifth Generation had reached that level.

This matter cannot be spread, that person is not generous and will kill people.

Little master, there are more chapters behind this one, please click on the next page to continue reading, the following is more exciting!

Hong Tan stopped talking about him and changed the subject, “Where did you get it? Good luck! I’ve heard of this “Time” cultivation method. It’s very strong, no worse than the Xia family’s Sky-Opening Saber. Of course, the Sky-Opening Saber has different levels of versions. I don’t know how many sabers the Great Xia King has released now.”

Su Yu was silent.

Hong Tan looked at the teacher and disciple, what do you mean?

Can’t say?

I already know who it is, what can’t be said!

Bai Feng thought about it, shrugged, and looked at Su Yu, you can say it, I won’t say it anyway!

Su Yu thought about it and whispered, “Grand-Master, it’s like this, my cultivation method is from our research institute…”

“Nonsense!”

Hong Tan was speechless, are you kidding me!

“Really, I got it in a post, that post… called… Seeking the Unknown in the Mountains and Seas!”

“…”

Quiet.

Extremely quiet.

Su Yu moved his steps lightly and hid behind Bai Feng. Bai Feng rolled his eyes, you ungrateful bastard!

Hong Tan was very quiet.

Seeking the Unknown in the Mountains and Seas!

Good post!

I especially like it!

I was wondering before, why did my post disappear?

Turns out… damn it, someone took it!

Taking it is one thing, but they also discovered a Heaven-Rank martial skill!After some thought, Hong Tan smiled and said, “Not bad, you actually discovered it! I discovered it decades ago and always wanted to leave it for Bai Feng to discover himself, but Bai Feng disappointed me! Alas, what a pity! It’s good now that you’ve discovered it, very good!”

As for why he didn’t know the name of the technique, it was because… he didn’t practice it!

Hong Tan smiled and said, “I don’t walk the path of the physical body. For Heaven-Tier martial arts, at my stage, opening a single aperture is difficult, and I’m too lazy to open any more. Your teacher, that blind man, hasn’t discovered it after all these years. Not bad, Su Yu, your insight is as good as mine!”

“…”

Bai Feng and Su Yu remained silent. Yes, what you say is flawless!

You treat a Heaven-Tier martial art like it’s trash and leave it there, not telling your students that you know it’s a Heaven-Tier martial art. Who are you fooling!

Hong Tan suppressed the urge to beat someone to death and smiled, “Su Yu, how did you discover it?”

“That… Grandmaster, the Suanni told me!”

Su Yu didn’t hesitate to sell out the Suanni.

Otherwise, it would seem like I have too good eyesight, and what if Grandmaster becomes jealous?

What if he suppresses me?

My eyesight is actually just average, I didn’t discover it, the Suanni told me!

Hong Tan nodded, beaming. Bai Feng transmitted his voice to Su Yu, “Next time you go to the detention area, there might be five Great Demons. Your Grandmaster might want to study the Suanni clan recently!”

Su Yu understood and secretly prayed for the Suanni, “Don’t blame me, I’ll pray you survive, poor Suanni.”

Hong Tan glared at Bai Feng, didn’t waste any more words, and stopped pursuing the matter, saying, “186 Yuan Qi apertures, very impressive! But the technique apertures and martial art apertures are mixed. Although you’ve opened many apertures, they’re not matched. Techniques are techniques, martial arts are martial arts. In the end, when you unleash them, they’re far inferior to those Heaven-Tier techniques, right?”

“Yes!”

Hong Tan smiled, “A technique is about unleashing the power of all the apertures. The strongest techniques now unleash the power of 144 apertures. Su Yu, you must understand, there are so many experts, why can’t they create even stronger techniques? Like 156 apertures, 168 apertures…”

Su Yu hesitated, “Is it because of the Myriad Stone Aperture Combination, the Mountain Sea Aperture Combination?”

“Correct!”

Hong Tan nodded, “Exactly! If a technique opens 180 apertures, then let me ask you, can you combine all the Myriad Stone apertures? When you reach the Mountain Sea realm, and combine one aperture, are you sure you can combine 180 apertures into one?”

Without needing to be told, Su Yu knew it would be very, very difficult!

“Techniques are for people to cultivate, not to hinder their progress!”

Hong Tan continued, “So after deducing the 144 aperture Heaven-Tier technique, those Invincibles stopped deducing techniques, because if you learn it, you might be stuck in the Thousand Jun realm for life!”

Su Yu nodded again, this was a matter of universality.

Even if a 180 aperture technique was deduced, if no one could learn it, it wouldn’t be very meaningful, and it would waste a lot of energy and time.

Hong Tan looked at Su Yu again and said, “I know what you mean, you want to unleash the power of all your apertures, greatly increasing your explosive force! But listen to your Grandmaster’s advice, it’s better to advance to the Myriad Stone realm! Don’t rush now, when you reach the Mountain Sea realm, try combining one aperture. If you think you can accommodate all your apertures into one, then your many apertures will be your foundation!”

“Thousand Jun, Myriad Stone, Soaring, and Ling Yun are all preparations for the Mountain Sea One Aperture Combination!”

He looked at Su Yu earnestly and said, “Having many apertures now isn’t without its benefits. If you really have that foundation, when you reach the Mountain Sea realm, combining all the apertures in your body into one, then you will be invincible in the Mountain Sea realm! At that time, techniques won’t be important. You can combine all your apertures. When others unleash the power of 144 apertures in one move, you unleash the power of 186 apertures. Can they match you?”

“In the Mountain Sea realm, having many apertures but being unable to combine them into one is actually a waste, because when you reach the Mountain Sea realm, having one more aperture’s worth of Yuan Qi isn’t very useful.”

Su Yu pondered, asking, “Grandmaster, can I switch to a Heaven-Tier technique now?”

Even if he couldn’t fully utilize the power of the apertures, switching to a Heaven-Tier technique wouldn’t be bad.

Hong Tan looked at him and said, “Are you sure? Switching to a Heaven-Tier technique is of course possible, but it might require opening apertures again, and the difficulty of combining apertures will be even greater! Let’s put it this way, the stronger the technique, the more difficult it is to combine apertures! It’s like that for Myriad Stone, and it’s like that for Mountain Sea!”

Su Yu nodded, “I want to switch, but I don’t have any Heaven-Tier techniques on hand right now, or rather, I do, but I don’t feel like they’re good enough, not top-tier Heaven-Tier…”

“You have one?”

Now it was Hong Tan and Bai Feng’s turn to be surprised, you have a Heaven-Tier technique?

How come we don’t know!

Of course, Su Yu had one, and more than one. The Strengthening Body Art was a pretty strong one. Of course, the Strengthening Body Art mainly tempered the physical body. Su Yu was considering whether to activate the Strengthening Body Art technique, so he wouldn’t have to keep absorbing the blood of the Mountain-Breaking Bull every day, lest he absorb the Mountain-Breaking Bull to extinction one day.

The main reason was that the Strengthening Body Art opened quite a few apertures. Previously, Su Yu didn’t have enough time and essence blood to cultivate it. Now, he had completed the aperture openings for “Soul Devouring Art”, “War God Art”, “Thunder Origin Blade”, “Sky Piercing Kill”, “Purifying Yuan Art”, and the first level of “Time”.

At this time, it wouldn’t be bad for Su Yu to cultivate the “Strengthening Body Art” again, as it could continue to strengthen his physical body and speed up aperture opening, directly activating the technique without needing to use Mountain-Breaking Bull essence blood anymore.

“I have a Heaven-Tier technique, obtained through an unexpected opportunity, but it doesn’t open many apertures, only 116 in total, and it’s not offensive…”

He was about to continue when Hong Tan waved his hand and said, “If it was obtained by chance, then don’t talk about it! Techniques cannot be spread randomly, unless you’re sure the original owner is dead, and their descendants are also dead, and they won’t pursue you.”

He didn’t ask further, thinking for a moment, he said, “You want an offensive technique that opens 144 apertures, right?”

“Yes.”
After a moment of contemplation, Hong Tan thought for a while and said, “Such powerful cultivation techniques do exist, and there are quite a few, but they are generally invincible legacies! Of course, there are a few that aren’t, but they have major drawbacks. For example, the well-known ‘Thousand Mountains Technique’ is a combat-oriented technique that opens 144 apertures, which is very strong! However, with this technique, it’s almost impossible to combine apertures at the ninth level of the Thousand Pound realm!”

He pondered for a moment and added, “In Great Xia Prefecture, the only truly Heaven-tier top-level cultivation technique that can be continued all the way to invincibility is the ‘Countless Blade Slashes to Open the Heavens’! It’s the Xia family’s ultimate skill! The Xia family is willing to pass on the technique, but usually it’s a weakened version, ranging from Heaven-tier beginner to advanced. The top-level one is rarely passed on, and usually only to direct descendants!”

Hong Tan looked at Su Yu, “You cultivate blade techniques?”

“Yes.”

Su Yu nodded, blade techniques were his main focus.

Hong Tan flicked his fingers a few times, and after a moment, he said, “Alright, I’ll find an opportunity to take you to see Fatty Xia! See if we can get the legacy of the ‘Heaven Opening Blade’ from him! But Fatty Xia is a money-grubber, even if he’s willing to pass it on, the price won’t be small!”

Hong Tan frowned and said, “I’m considering whether learning it will require you to open a lot more apertures, and whether that will delay your advancement…”

Su Yu laughed, “It won’t, Grandmaster! I’ve opened close to 180 apertures in the two months or so since I started school…”

“Hmm?”

Hong Tan said in surprise, “When you started school… what was your strength when you started school?”

“Ninth level of the Opening Origin realm!”

Hong Tan nodded, good!

When Bai Feng said the seventh level of the Thousand Pound realm, he already suspected something was wrong.

Now, the ninth level of the Opening Origin realm!

Two months and 177 apertures opened, this grand-disciple of his is either a peerless genius or has incredible opportunities, very good, very good!

He glanced at Bai Feng and made a decision. Once Su Yu leaves, he’ll first beat Bai Feng to death, then beat Suanni to death, and clean up the sect!

He didn’t say much, now wasn’t the time.

Su Yu hesitated and said, “Grandmaster, the ‘Heaven Opening Blade’ is the Xia family’s ultimate skill, are they willing to pass it on? Master even seriously injured Xia Yuwen before…”

“Fatty Xia and Xia Yuwen aren’t even from the same family!”

Hong Tan didn’t care, “Fatty Xia… other than being a money-grubber, he’s alright. Great Xia Prefecture is actually quite open-minded and willing to see some talented experts emerge, as long as you show corresponding talent, make sure you’re not from the Myriad Races Sect, and not an enemy, the Xia family will generally pass it on, but the price… we’ll see!”

Su Yu nodded slightly, making calculations in his heart. Should he go find Xia Huyu first?

He was still holding onto a divine aperture opening method that he hadn’t given him!

Maybe he could use it to exchange for something?

Of course, the ‘Heaven Opening Blade’ is very strong, especially the top-level Heaven-tier version, opening 144 apertures. Not just anyone can learn this technique.

“If I can cultivate the ‘Heaven Opening Blade’ and unleash the power of 144 apertures, then I should be able to advance to the Ten Thousand Stone realm!”

It wasn’t that he had to open countless apertures, he could do it later. It was just that the 108-aperture ‘War God Technique’ really didn’t satisfy him. He wasn’t satisfied during his last fight with Zhou Hao, otherwise, he should have beaten Zhou Hao to death with his physical body.
