There was a sudden silence. It was not just the many Diamond Sect disciples — even Chen Jingzhou, Cheng Dongfeng, and the others were left at a loss.
What the heck?
Creating a cultivation manual?
After the silence, there was laughter.
Rank-nine … creating a cultivation manual …
There certainly was.
Many martial artists would develop saber techniques and sword techniques that were most suitable for themselves, but those were all ordinary martial arts techniques. Could a Rank-9 martial artist create a "god-level" martial art like the Dragon Elephant Prajna Art?
The head lama who spoke before was about to speak again, but was stopped by the head monk.
He then turned towards Jiang He and smiled. "Young mister, it is your providence that you could learn the Dragon-Elephant Prajna. Still, it is a secret technique of the Diamond Sect, and you are not a core disciple of our sect …"
Even before the head monk finished, Jiang He laughed coldly and cut him off, saying, "Oh? What do you mean? "
"You have cultivated the Dragon-Elephant Prajna and are quite accomplished in it, which means that you are fated with the Diamond Sect. You may join us, and we would nurture you as a core disciple … otherwise …"
The head monk breathed a long sigh and said, "I would have to act according to the Diamond Sect's rules."
Jiang He raised a brow and asked, "How?"
The head monk turned to Corban, who took a step forward, Iron Staff of Discipline in hand as he said, "According to our sect's rules, anyone who stealthily learns our sect's secret techniques without permission is considered a traitor. However, young sir, you are not a disciple of the Diamond Sect, which is why you just need to take back our sect's secret techniques."
Jiang He was amused.
He could not help laughing. "I've already learned it. How are you going to take it back?"
"Since Lord Exalted Master has taken action, he can naturally erase all of the young benefactor's memories regarding the Dragon Elephant Prajna Art."
"Hahahaha!"
Jiang He suddenly laughed out loud, tears flowing from the corner of his eyes.
The many Diamond Sect disciples all turned toward Jiang He, believing that he had been triggered by the mention of 'Diamond Sect rules'. On the other hand, Chen Jingzhou, Cheng Dongfeng, and the others had gloomy looks on their faces, with Cheng Dongfeng taking a step forward and saying, "Elders, Jiang He had learned the cultivation method through providence and not in secret. Moreover, he is not a disciple of the Diamond Sect, so it would not be appropriate to apply your rules to him, would it?"
Cheng Dongfeng's legs trembled when he saw the Head Monk and the other experts looking at him, but he did not show any fear on his face. He smiled faintly and said, "Oh right, I forgot to introduce myself. I am Cheng Dongfeng, the successor of the Eight Trigrams Formula. My grandmaster, Dong Haichuan, is one of the Void-realm experts in Hua."
The high monks of the Vajra Sect turned pale.
Martial artists who were able to cultivate to the Void Initiation Realm in this era were bound to be extraordinary.
Even so, Corban stubbornly shook his head. "The Diamond Sect's rules cannot be broken!"
He was a monk who was in charge of the Diamond Sect's discipline, and naturally did not wish for anyone to break the sect's rules.
Chen Jingzhou and He Litong both stepped forward. One was rank-nine advanced while the other was rank-seven, and yet they were fearless against the Diamond Sect's elites, their auras bursting as they said, "Jiang He is a neo martial artist who holds a position in the Hua Nation's military. Anyone who dares to touch him is an enemy of the millions of Hua Nation's soldiers!"
Though Yang Chengwu was merely rank-six and had no backing, he stepped forward now as well, saying, "We'll just give up on the Secret Realm slot if push comes to shove. Let's go, Brother Jiang!"
Zhou Rui did not say a word, though she quietly stood behind Jiang He.
That sight …
Actually moved Jiang He a little.
Holding back his laughter, he walked up with a smile. "What are you all doing? How could you just give up on the Secret Realm slot that Minister Wang fought so hard for? Moreover … I didn't cultivate the Dragon-Elephant Prajna of the Diamond Sect, so why would they wipe my memories? "
"Still trying to quibble?"
One of the monks barked loudly and angrily. "How could the head monk be mistaken?"
Jiang He then turned toward the monk who spoke.
The monk was not weak in cultivation and was a rank-nine pinnacle who had grasped the Boundary of Wills. Even so, he could not help taking three steps back when Jiang He stared at him, his entire body chilling as he lowered his head, not daring to meet Jiang He's gaze.
It had only been a little over a month since he started learning martial arts, but there was no telling how many Sky Demon Cultists he had killed alone. Four Feral Kings had died by his hand, and countless others had been blown up. How could these Diamond Sect disciples, who had secluded themselves for years, compare to him?
"Such great killing intent, young sir!"
Someone spoke.
Jiang He turned toward him and smiled. "You're divine-tier, yes? Have you cultivated the Dragon-Elephant Prajna? "
The monk took a step forward and flatly said, "I'm a divine-conversion martial artist. My talent is lacking, and I've only cultivated the Dragon-Elephant Prajna up to the eleventh tier."
Jiang He was aware that divine-tier martial artists were divided into three tiers: divine-conversion, divine-tempest, and divine-union. He had the feeling that he could beat a martial artist of that tier to death even without using his immortal arts.
Then, he asked, "Could you show me the Dragon-Elephant Prajna?"
The monk did not understand what Jiang He meant. He glanced at the head monk, who nodded. Hence, he promptly charged his qi and blood, and a tyrannical aura burst out. His monk's robes almost burst apart, while his red lama robes fluttered even though there was no wind.
Vaguely, a dragon's roar and an elephant's trumpeting could be heard echoing from the monk's body.
"So powerful!"
Jiang He clapped his hands in praise. "The Dragon-Elephant Prajna really is a secret technique of the Tantra Sect, having such power at the eleventh tier … but the technique I've created is different."
Rawr!
Suddenly, a dragon's roar and an elephant's trumpeting echoed from Jiang He's body. It was more than ten times louder than the monk's, and at such a close distance, it was deafening.
Most importantly, the instant he charged the Dragon-Elephant Prajna, the 'special effect' manifested as well. The silhouette of a divine dragon swirled above his head, and beside it was a divine elephant trumpeting at the skies.
He withdrew his aura just as it burst out, and Jiang He put away his cultivation technique and sighed. "I've only cultivated the Dragon-Elephant Prajna I've created myself up to the fifth tier, and there's still a long way to go before I reach the eighteenth tier. Moreover, it's much weaker than that master just now … Sigh, isn't my cultivation technique too weak?"
"…"
Silence fell upon the mountain gates of the Diamond Sect once again.
After a long while, Cheng Dongfeng was the first to react and exclaimed in surprise, "What the hell! Jiang He, you really created a cultivation technique? What's the name of your cultivation technique? Isn't it too cool? "
How could it not be cool?
I spent over an hour to come up with the Dragon Elephant Prajna Art, and I spent another half an hour to modify the special effects and sound effects. If it wasn't cool, wouldn't I have suffered a great loss?
As for the name of the cultivation technique …
Jiang He looked at Cheng Dongfeng as if he was an idiot and quietly said, "Didn't I tell you? It's called the Dragon-Elephant Prajna … Oh, right!"
Jiang He then turned towards the head monk of the Diamond Sect and asked with a smile, "Master, surely the name of this cultivation technique isn't against the rules of the Diamond Sect?"
PS: Sorry for the late update, I'll write another chapter to make it up to you. Sigh … it's a long story.
