Zhang Xuan suddenly felt the world spinning around him, leaving him in a state of vertigo. Putong! He fell to the ground.
The teleportation process felt like a year had passed, but it also felt like a second. The scenery before him kept changing, and space kept distorting.
Wow!
He opened his mouth and vomited. It took him a long time to recover.
"It's no wonder why Teleportation Formations aren't widely used. Those who are weaker won't be able to withstand it at all!"
After adjusting himself for a moment, Zhang Xuan felt a little more comfortable. Recalling what he had just experienced, a bitter smile appeared on his face.
Initially, he thought that since the headquarters of Mingshi Tang could build branches of Mingshi Tang all over the continent, why couldn't they build a teleportation array? But after experiencing it once, he realized that not everyone could use it!
His physical body was already comparable to a Saint pinnacle artifact, but even so, he was still barely able to withstand it. Even if his cultivation had reached Saint 8-dan, it was likely that he would be reduced to dust if he were to step in!
"Where is this?"
Zhang Xuan still felt a little uncomfortable without his Primordial Spirit fusing with his physical body. However, knowing that this was not the time for him to waste any time, he slowly got to his feet and scanned his surroundings.
Based on the information on the Sanctum Head Token, it was likely that this was a secret dimension left behind by Sage Kui. Only the sanctum heads of the Sanctum of Sages were allowed to enter, and those who did not fulfill the first two conditions would not be able to enter.
"It really is a folded space!"
After observing for a while, Zhang Xuan realized that the spatial energy here was far weaker than outside. This was indeed a folded space, and the spiritual energy here was far less concentrated than outside.
The place he was at was a round platform that could be used for teleportation, and the array formation set up on it was very brilliant.
To be able to teleport him from the Zhang family, a distance of several million kilometers, all the way here, it was a testament to the prowess of the Zhang family.
Walking out of the circular platform, Zhang Xuan slowly walked forward, and soon, a lush green courtyard appeared before his eyes. Lush greenery and flowing water filled the courtyard, giving off a feeling of paradise.
Walking into the courtyard, Zhang Xuan saw a stone tablet erected before him. There were four words inscribed on it … Divine Eyes of the Ninth Netherworld!
Taking a closer look at the stone tablet, Zhang Xuan saw that the words were filled with tiny inscriptions, describing the circulation path of the ocular art in detail. It was even more detailed than what Sage Kui had imparted to him.
"Welcome to the Nine Secluded Secret Land!"
Zhang Xuan swiftly scanned through the book and assimilated its contents into the Library of Heaven's Path. Following which, a calm voice sounded.
"Kui Sage?"
Hearing the noise, Zhang Xuan couldn't help but look around.
It was Sage Kui's voice.
"There's no need to search. There's only my will here, and I can't show myself anymore!"
Seemingly knowing what Zhang Xuan was up to, Zhang Xuan's voice sounded a little bleak. "The fact that you were able to make it here means that you have already deciphered two of the seals and possess sufficient strength to cultivate the Divine Eyes of the Ninth Netherworld!"
"Strong enough?"
"Indeed. Even though I gave you the cultivation method of the Divine Eyes of the Ninth Netherworld, it wasn't detailed enough, so you weren't able to successfully cultivate it. I'm not doing this to make things difficult for you. Rather, if you wish to cultivate the Divine Eyes of the Ninth Netherworld to a certain level, not only will you need the cultivation technique, you'll also need a suitable environment to cultivate it. Otherwise, it will be very difficult to complete the task by just working behind closed doors! "
Kui Sheng's voice continued.
"Special environment?" Zhang Xuan was puzzled.
It was just the cultivation of ocular techniques. How could the environment help?
"The Divine Eyes of the Ninth Netherworld … In order to master the Divine Eyes of the Ninth Netherworld, one must be in a hellish environment. Only then will one be able to stimulate one's eyes and unleash greater power. This secret realm is specifically created for the sake of this technique …"
Understanding his confusion, Kui Sage explained.
"En!"
Zhang Xuan nodded.
He had browsed through countless cultivation technique manuals, and he knew that some unique cultivation techniques would be able to fuse with the environment to achieve better results.
For example, some fire-elemental cultivation techniques could be cultivated in lava with twice the results with half the effort. Ice-elemental cultivation techniques could be cultivated in the cold water of the pool.
Since the Divine Eyes of the Ninth Netherworld was a peerless martial art on par with the Heavenly Art of Dimension Unravel, it was unlikely that it would be easy to cultivate it. Otherwise, the previous Hall Masters wouldn't have failed to master it.
"There are Beguiling Formations, Illusory Formations, and Concealment Formations in secret realms … Even though there isn't any danger in there, without exceptional eyesight, it's impossible for one to see through the beguiling formations and find the exit! The Divine Eyes of the Ninth Netherworld will sharpen your eyesight and allow you to find the flaws in these places! "
Sage Kui's voice sounded once more. "These are the ocular art that my teacher has left behind. At the same time, they also contain the insights of the previous sanctum heads. You can use them as reference, but if you wish to cultivate them, you'll have to comprehend them yourself!"
Hula!
As soon as he finished speaking, a few more stone tablets appeared, towering not too far away.
Zhang Xuan looked at these stone tablets and saw that they were densely filled with cultivation insights and experiences.
"Correct!"
Zhang Xuan muttered softly.
Hula!
A book materialized before Zhang Xuan's eyes. Flipping it open, Zhang Xuan sighed deeply.
As expected of the Divine Eyes of the Ninth Netherworld. Even after assimilating these insights, he was still a long way off from reaching the Heaven's Path realm.
"Even though I haven't reached the Heaven's Path realm yet, I should be able to cultivate swiftly after assimilating so much knowledge into the Divine Eyes of the Ninth Netherworld. However, it's still extremely harmful to my eyes. In other words, there's still a high chance that I'll end up blind if I want to cultivate it to the very pinnacle!"
The reason why Zhang Xuan didn't cultivate the Divine Eyes of the Ninth Netherworld was because there was a huge flaw in it. The slightest carelessness could lead to blindness.
Even the direct disciple of Kong Shi, the creator of the Divine Eyes of the Ninth Netherworld, Ancient Sage Bo Shang, had not been able to survive such a fate. Zhang Xuan didn't want to follow in the footsteps of Kong Shi.
"I don't have any intention of learning the Divine Eyes of the Ninth Netherworld for the time being. Can you allow me to leave this place first?"
Zhang Xuan asked. After looking through the book once more, he was unable to come up with any good ideas.
"Leave? There's only a single opportunity to enter the Ninth Netherworld Dungeon. If you don't cultivate your Divine Eyes of the Ninth Netherworld to the fourth realm, it'll be extremely difficult for you to advance your cultivation in the future! "
Not expecting Zhang Xuan to leave as soon as he arrived, not even bothering to take a look at the dungeon, Sage Kui remarked in bewilderment.
This matter concerned the position of the sanctum head of the Sanctum of Sages. Wasn't the other party a little too quick to turn him down?
"My student has encountered danger, and as her teacher, I can't just focus on my own cultivation and neglect her safety. I hope that you can forgive me for that!"
Zhang Xuan clasped his fist.
Zhao Ya's life was at stake, so he didn't have much time to waste here. He had to find Chen Leyao as soon as possible and figure out a way to save her. Even if learning the Divine Eyes of the Ninth Netherworld Dungeon did not harm his eyes, it would still take a very long time.
"Your student is in danger?" Sage Kui hesitated for a moment before asking, "Are you sure that you want to lose this one and only opportunity? For the sake of your student? "
"That's right!"
Zhang Xuan nodded.
As long as Zhao Ya was safe, he could just give up on the Divine Eyes of the Ninth Netherworld and give up on his position as the sanctum head!
While becoming the sanctum head of the Sanctum of Sages would benefit him greatly in marrying Lozosy, there was no way he would sacrifice his student's life for it!
"You are a good teacher to be willing to give up so much for your student!"
After a long moment of silence, Sage Kui's voice sounded once more. "However, the rules won't change. You can only enter the dungeon once, and once you leave, you won't be able to return. However, as a teacher, you are indeed worthy of respect for your student. If you can comprehend the fourth realm of the Ninth Netherworld Dungeon in the outside world, I'll give you a chance to comprehend the fifth realm with the Sanctum Head Token! "
