"Our Zhao Clan's cultivation technique is grand and majestic. I believe Your Majesty should be aware of this as well!"
Seeing the other party's confusion, City Lord Zhao Feng explained.
"Indeed!" Emperor Shen Zhui nodded his head.
Actually, many years ago, the Shen and Zhao Clan were friends. They established Tianxuan Kingdom together, and one of them guarded the land while the other guarded the wealth. Due to this, the two clans had been on good terms for generations, and they didn't even hide their cultivation technique from each other.
Emperor Shen Zhui had come into contact with the Zhao Clan's White Jade Art since young, and he was extremely familiar with it. It was forceful and forceful, and it wasn't suitable for a lady like Zhao Ya to cultivate.
City Lord Zhao Feng continued, "Ever since the establishment of Tianxuan Kingdom, our Zhao Clan has been guarding the White Jade City, and we even changed its name to 'White Jade'. Logically speaking, jade nourishes man, and man nourishes jade, allowing one to cultivate at a faster pace! However, it is a pity that jade is of the cold attribute. It is still fine to come into contact with one or two pieces, but if one were to come into contact with too much of it, it would cause great damage to our White Jade Art. "
"It isn't apparent at the start, but as the cold and heat clash for a prolonged period of time, it would form a unique hidden danger in one's body, and it would be passed down from generation to generation. This is also the reason why I have been stuck at Tongxuan realm advanced stage for so many years, unable to break through. "
City Lord Zhao Feng's talent back then wasn't inferior to Zhao Ya's. He was known as the young genius, and he reached Tongxuan realm in his twenties.
However, it was a pity that he was unable to advance any further after reaching Tongxuan realm advanced stage. Even after more than a decade, he still hadn't made any progress. Initially, he thought that it was because he had used up all of his potential, but to think that it was a hidden danger that had been passed down from his ancestors due to spending all his time with the jade.
"Miss Zhang saw through this problem, so she intentionally altered the White Jade Art, causing the cold and heat to mix together. This way, the hidden danger in my body was completely removed. Without the hidden danger, coupled with the many years of accumulation, I managed to break through and reach Tongxuan realm pinnacle! "As Zhao Feng spoke, admiration could be seen in his eyes.
Just by looking through the cultivation technique manual once and knowing that he was in Baiyu City, the other party was able to deduce all of this. Given Zhang laoshi's understanding of cultivation techniques and cultivation, even if he wasn't at the level of a Zongshi, he wasn't too far from it.
"Since the hidden danger has been resolved, then the cultivation technique..." Emperor Shen Zhui was still confused.
"Does Your Majesty want to ask why the cultivation method was destroyed?"
City Lord Zhao Feng chuckled. "That cultivation technique was wrong in the first place. Its purpose was to help me get rid of the hidden danger. Now that the hidden danger has been removed, I'm afraid that I might really go berserk if I continue cultivating it. Therefore, Miss Zhang directly burned it. What she meant was … that she could forget about this thing and there was no need for her to continue cultivating. "
"I see..." Only then did Emperor Shen Zhui come to a realization.
The other party had made it sound easy, but he knew that it was definitely not easy.
A cultivation method had been passed down for hundreds of years, and countless ancestors had studied it. Just by changing some of the methods to circulate true Qi, he was able to eliminate the hidden dangers that had accumulated for generations. This kind of ability could no longer be described as terrifying. It was definitely terrifying.
Not even the three master teachers were capable of such a feat.
"Father, Your Majesty, why are you here?"
While he was still in shock, he heard Zhao Ya's voice. The young boys and girls who were in the limelight today walked over.
"Oh, I paid a visit to Miss Zhang!" Zhao Feng nodded. "Aren't you going to participate in the Freshmen Competition? Why... "
The previous competition was a Teacher Evaluation, and the only way to determine their ranking among the freshmen was through the Freshmen Competition. Why did they return before the competition had even started?
"Given our current state, even if we wanted to fight, who would dare to compete with us?"
Zhao Ya spread her arms apart.
"Er... That's true!" Zhao Feng and Zhang Xuan smiled bitterly.
Regardless of whether it was Zhao Ya, Zheng Yang, or Yuan Tao, they were able to stand against even Pixue realm experts. Given that they were stronger than most teachers, who would dare to compete with them?
They would probably admit defeat the moment they saw them.
Besides, given their strength, even if they were to become the champion of the Freshmen Competition, there would be no glory to speak of. It would be better for them to withdraw from the competition.
"Right, father, have you met Miss Zhang? Do you need me to introduce her to you? "Seeing the two standing at the entrance, Zhao Ya couldn't help but ask.
"I have already met your Miss Zhang." At this, Zhao Feng turned to his daughter and said, "Xiao Ya, it is your fortune to be able to come under Miss Zhang. In the future, you must be obedient and not throw a tantrum like your family!"
"Un!" Zhao Ya nodded her head.
"Also, Miss Zhang is a Flood Dragon of the Heavens. He probably won't be able to stay in Tianxuan Kingdom for long. If he wants you to follow him, you must grasp this opportunity tightly. Otherwise, you will regret it for the rest of your life..." Zhao Feng switched to using telepathy to convey his words. Deep anticipation shone in his eyes as he said, "Perhaps... only he... can help you save your mother!"
"Yes!" Zhao Ya clenched her fists tightly.
… …
"Let's see how to use this Insight Crystal!"
The reason why he guided Zhao Feng was out of respect for Zhao Ya. After the duo left, Zhang Xuan lowered his head to look at the Insight Crystal in his palm.
Logically speaking, with the Library of Heaven's Path, he should be able to easily see through the problems and flaws of others in their cultivation. Even if he didn't possess the State of Insight, it wouldn't matter.
However, only those who possessed such talent and had reached 3 would be qualified to take the master teacher examination.
Without the identity of a master teacher, he wouldn't be able to maintain his disguise for long.
This was just like driving in his previous world. Without a driving license, even a racer would have to tread carefully on the road, fearing that he might be caught.
More importantly, there were many books on Mingshi Tang. If he wanted to browse through them and raise his cultivation swiftly, he would have to possess the identity of a master teacher.
"Absorb!"
With a jolt of his mind, Zhang Xuan's Soul Depth entered the second level. As expected, he felt a refreshing sensation flowing through his body from his palm. The Soul Depth that he had expended previously was slowly recovering.
"It's really effective!"
Sensing the changes in his body, Zhang Xuan's eyes lit up. He continued to immerse himself in absorbing the energy within the Insight Crystal greedily.
After an unknown period of time, he finally felt the Soul Depth that he had expended previously recovering to around 0.1.
However, after recovering to 0.1, he was unable to absorb any more energy. It was as though it was already full and unable to contain any more energy.
"Looks like without a cultivation technique, this thing is useless. It's just like without a cultivation technique, it's impossible to raise one's cultivation!"
Unable to absorb any more energy, Zhang Xuan could only stop.
In cultivation, the relationship between spiritual energy and zhenqi was like flowing water, flowing from high to low. If one wanted to reverse the situation, one would have to make use of all kinds of methods, and cultivation technique was one of them.
Even though the Insight Crystal could raise one's Soul Depth, without a cultivation technique to complement it, it was useless to the current him.
"Forget it, I'll stop studying it for now. Let's take a look at the golden book."
Knowing that it was futile to dwell on it, Zhang Xuan turned his attention to the golden book in the Library of Heaven's Path.
It appeared when those fellows were trying to clear his name. He hadn't had the time to examine it. Now that he had the time, he could study it once more.
With a thought, the golden book appeared before him. Just like before, there was only a blank page.
"Whether it will appear to invoke gratitude or not is still something that needs further research. Just that … what is the use of this thing?"
Staring at the book before him, Zhang Xuan was perplexed.
The last time he was studying it, the book disappeared and he fell into a coma. When he woke up, the knowledge within the Library of Heaven's Path had entered his mind, becoming his.
Could it be that this seemingly awesome thing only had this little effect?
But if that wasn't the case, there wasn't a single word or hint at all … Even Zhang Xuan was getting more and more confused.
"I should try using the Library of Heaven's Path!"
After studying it for a long time, Zhang Xuan was still unable to make sense of it. Then, an idea popped up in his mind.
He couldn't figure it out, but what about the Library of Heaven's Path?
Just like the poison gas from before, there wasn't anything that the Library of Heaven's Path couldn't analyze.
However, even though the golden book seemed to be in his hand, it was in his mind. He couldn't touch it physically, so he wasn't sure if he could form a book under such circumstances.
"Flaws!"
Grasping the book tightly, Zhang Xuan probed it with his mind.
He looked around, and it was just as he had guessed. It was impossible to see through the flaws of the book with one's mind.
"I can only guess using a crude method …"
After trying for a long time without any progress, Zhang Xuan could only smile bitterly.
Since that method didn't work, he could only make wild guesses on his own.
Taking out a blank book, Zhang Xuan wrote on a piece of paper. "The golden book can only convert the knowledge in the Library of Heaven's Path into the host's."
Weng!
An identical book formed in his mind. Flipping it open, he saw the flaws written on it. "Converting knowledge is only one of its abilities, not the only one."
"There really is another use for it!"
Zhang Xuan's eyes lit up.
How could such an incredible book only have a single use for converting knowledge? It seemed like there were other uses for it.
Just that, he could only rely on himself to guess what its uses were.
"The name of this book is … the golden book!"
After a moment of hesitation, Zhang Xuan continued writing.
Soon, a flaw appeared. "Error in the name of the golden book. This book is called 【Book of Heaven's Path】."
"Book of Heaven's Path? What a domineering name! But … just domineering isn't enough. I need to know what its uses are! "
Zhang Xuan frowned.
Since he already knew that one of its uses was to convert knowledge, what was the other?
"Is it possible to convert it into a cultivation technique that can raise my Soul Depth?"
Just as Zhang Xuan was thinking about how he should experiment, a thought suddenly popped into his mind.
Since the Book of Heaven's Path was so formidable, would it be able to generate a cultivation technique that could raise his Soul Depth as well?
Just as Zhang Xuan's mind was wandering, the golden book before him suddenly shook violently, and a brilliant light shrouded the entire Library of Heaven's Path.
Hu!
This time, Zhang Xuan didn't fall unconscious. It didn't take long for him to recover. He hurriedly took a look, and just like before, the golden book was still there, just that the blank page had disappeared once more.
"Could it be that … it has really created a cultivation technique that can raise my Soul Depth?"
He was just thinking about how to raise his Soul Depth, and the golden page was already used up. Could it be that the Library of Heaven's Path really has a secret art that can raise one's Soul Depth?
With such thoughts in mind, Zhang Xuan hurriedly looked around.
