"That's great!" Han Tianba nodded excitedly. "By the way, Xiao Po, why are you looking for me now? Is there anything important?"
"Grandpa, boss asked me to choose a martial technique!" Han Xiaopo said. "Grandpa, please bring us to the library!"
"Alright, we'll go now. Mister Lin can give you some advice on what kind of martial technique is best!" Han Tianba nodded.
Han Tianba didn't mind letting Lin Yi have a look at the good stuff in the treasury. He could tell that Lin Yi wasn't a greedy person! Other than the colored steel, which Lin Yi wanted, Lin Yi didn't ask for anything else. The only materials for the qi gathering pill were given to him by the hidden house Han.
Lin Yi, naturally, was interested in the hidden house Han's treasury. It wasn't the treasures, but the manuals! The hidden house Han had found an ancient ruin, and there might be some special manuals in there!
For example, Feng Nitian, Zhang Naipao … It seemed that every ancient sect had an extremely powerful practitioner's arts or arts in their ruins. Lin Yi wanted to see if the hidden House Han had something like that as well.
The three of them arrived at the treasury together. There were two doors here. One was where the treasures were stored, and the other was naturally the Scripture Pavilion. This place stored the original copies of the Mental Cultivation Techniques and Martial Techniques that the Han Clan had discovered in the Ancient Ruins.
"Mister Lin, this is the treasury, and that's the scripture library. Where should we go first?" Han Tianba asked.
"Let's go straight to the scripture library." Lin Yi didn't need any other treasures, but he was looking forward to the scripture library.
"Alright!" Han Tianba nodded approvingly. It seemed that his guess was right. Lin Yi wasn't a greedy person. He wouldn't ask for an endless amount of things.
He took out the key, passed the password and fingerprint verification, and opened the scripture library. However, upon entering, Lin Yi was very disappointed!
In Lin Yi's mind, the scripture library was at least like a bookstore. There were many bookshelves filled with all sorts of practitioner's arts and martial techniques. What he saw now was a stone table with a few boxes on it. There were less than ten of them.
"This is the scripture library?" Lin Yi looked at the room in shock, speechless.
"Mister Lin, this is the Hidden House of Han's Scripture Depository. It is simple and crude, and there are very few secret manuals. Our Hidden House of Han's resources are too scarce …" Han Tianba smiled bitterly. "These are the secret manuals of an entire sect. They are all here …"
"A sect only has these few manuals?" Lin Yi was shocked.
"The real big sects are very strict when it comes to accepting disciples. If you don't have the right physique and aptitude, you won't be able to enter these ancient sects to train. Moreover, these ancient sects don't have many cultivation methods and martial skills, so it's normal!" Han Tianba explained.
"Oh?" Lin Yi, on the other hand, nodded as he thought about the Ice Palace. Everyone practiced an ice practitioner's arts, and their techniques were probably similar as well. Inner disciples weren't randomly accepted, either, so it was probably similar to the sects from the ancient ruins!
However, Lin Yi was a little confused, "Do the other hidden houses have so little cultivation materials?"
"Not really!" Han Tianba shook his head, "Our hidden Han family's cultivation methods and martial techniques all come from the ancient ruins. The other hidden houses, on the other hand, get most of them from trading or buying. Some of them are copied from the ancient sects and ancient families that they're on good terms with. These hidden houses have much more history and resources than us!"
"I see." Lin Yi nodded, "It must've been hard on you guys to be able to train so well with just these few arts and techniques. Although there's the effect of the medicine, it's all thanks to your hard work!"
"Maybe the heavens are blessing us to hide our Han family's bloodline and physique. It's perfect for us to cultivate the Heart Sutra in the ancient ruins. Otherwise, we wouldn't be able to do anything with these treasures!" Han Tianba said. "Moreover, how many Heart Sutras do we have? There's only one! Among these books, there's only one cultivation method, the rest are all martial techniques … "
Han Tianba's answer impressed Lin Yi even more. Only one cultivation method, and these people were still able to train in it. It was enough to show how lucky the hidden Han family was!
"If I'm not wrong, Xiao Po's cultivation method should be of the wood element, right?" Lin Yi said.
"Yes, it is of the wood element!" Han Tianba nodded.
"What martial technique does Elder Han train in?" Lin Yi asked.
"I'm ashamed, this old man trains in a very common wood element martial technique called Firewood Chopping Art!" Han Tianba said, "This is the simplest of all the martial techniques, but even so, this old man can only use the first two forms. I can't use the rest."
"Oh?" Lin Yi was startled. Han Tianba was a mid-Earth class master, the same as the black-clothed man who attacked Xu Shihan. In theory, Han Tianba could use at least three forms, and the black-clothed man could use the fourth form!
"There's no one to guide me, this old man has to rely on himself. Plus, I'm not very talented, so …" Han Tianba said with some shame.
Lin Yi nodded. Lin Yi knew this feeling very well. If it wasn't for the support martial technique and Faubert's guidance, his Raging Fire Fist wouldn't have had much success, let alone fighting against the black-clothed man.
"Let me see these martial techniques!" Lin Yi walked over and looked at the names of the martial techniques on the wooden boxes.
"This is the martial technique we train in, called Wood Spirit Technique!" Han Tianba pointed to the wooden box on the side and said, "And from this second box onwards are the martial techniques. According to the strength of the martial techniques, they are arranged from left to right. This second box is the weakest, and it's also the one I train in Firewood Chopping Art!"
At this point, Han Tianba sighed in shame.
"Even without the guidance of a master, he can still train in martial techniques. Elder Han, there's no need to belittle yourself!" Lin Yi said with a wave of his hand.
"Haha, Mister Lin is too kind!" Han Tianba said, "According to Mister Lin, which martial technique should Han Xiao Po train in?"
