That night, late at night, Immortal Island.
Lu An was lying on the bed, his injuries had already been healed by Yao. He only needed to rest for a night to fill his empty body with energy, then he would be able to fully recover.
At this moment, Lu An's eyes were wide open. His eyes were flickering with light, just like his thoughts were spinning non-stop.
He was thinking, thinking about many things.
At this moment, the door was pushed open. Yao and Yang beauty entered from the door, their hands holding some medicinal concoction brewed from Immortal Island's fruits. After the two women entered, they discovered that Lu An had already opened his eyes and was already awake. They hurried to the side of the bed.
"Husband, how are you?" Yao asked with concern.
"I'm fine." Lu An turned to look at the two women, and said with a smile, "My body is very good."
As he spoke, Lu An propped his body up from the bed. The two women sat on the edge of the bed. Although they saw that Lu An's body was fine, the two women were still not at ease.
Because – Lu An had lost today.
Lu An had almost never lost a one on one battle within the same realm. Even Lu An had always been fighting one against many. Without a doubt, this battle definitely brought a huge impact to Lu An.
The two women were right. Losing this battle brought a huge impact to Lu An, far beyond the two women's imagination.
Just like what Lu An had said to Xiang Tianjing, he lost the battle and even suffered heavy injuries. But he was not angry at all. Injuries were unavoidable in a battle. Lu An had experienced so many life and death situations, naturally he would not take this injury to heart.
On the contrary, the current Lu An was very grateful to Xiang Tianjing. He was grateful that Xiang Tianjing made him recognize reality, and recognized the gap between him and the Hachiko clan.
It was not that Lu An had never lost a one on one battle within the same realm. The one he lost to wasn't anyone else, but Fu Yu. That year in Starfire Academy, Lu An could not even last one move against Fu Yu. No matter how he fought, he would always lose to Fu Yu in an instant. This was never a joking battle, so Lu An knew that he was not as good as Fu Yu.
However, Lu An had always thought that Fu Yu was an exception. Even after learning about the existence of the Hachiko clan, Lu An also learned that Fu Yu was the most talented person in the Hachiko clan. He thought that even if it would be difficult for him to fight against the other members of the Hachiko clan, and even if he might lose, he wouldn't be as helpless as when he fought against Fu Yu.
However, today, when his opponent used his Fate Wheel, he could not even withstand one move.
The gap was huge. If he couldn't even defeat an ordinary member of the Hachiko clan, would he still have any hope of winning the ten-year promise?
Among the Hachiko clan, the Xiang clan was considered inferior. The superior ones were the Fu Clan's Water clan, the Li Clan's Wind clan, the Gao Clan's Earth clan, and the Chu Clan's Fire clan. If he couldn't even defeat the Xiang clan, how could he seek revenge from the Chu clan?
Although Lu An didn't show any signs of pain on his face, the two women knew that his heart must be in a mess when they saw how quiet he was.
Looking at Lu An, Yao Na and Beauty Yang looked at each other. Their eyes were full of heartache. Beauty Yang said softly, "Your opponent is at the peak of the seventh level, while master is at the late stage of the seventh level. There is a gap between their realms. If master was also at the peak of the seventh level, the result would be different. "
Hearing this, Lu An looked at Beauty Yang. She was right. His opponent was indeed at the peak of the seventh level. The gap between him and his opponent was just like the gap between the late stage of the seventh level and the peak of the seventh level.
"The Hachiko clan controls the passage to the underground world. They can come and go as they please." Yao Na continued, "They might have sent their clansmen to the underground world to cultivate and increase their physical strength. That's why husband couldn't take back his advantage in terms of physical strength."
Lu An looked at Yao Na again. He had indeed thought about what Yao Na said. However, it didn't matter how his opponent cultivated. The most important thing was the result. In the end, other than strength, he did not have the slightest advantage in any other aspect of his body.
"You don't have to comfort me," Lu An looked at the two girls and said with a smile, "I know you're worried about me. I'm fine. So many things didn't overwhelm me. I just lost a battle. I'll be fine. "
The two girls looked at Lu An. Although he said so, they were still very worried. After all, the meaning of this battle was different from before.
However, Lu An didn't lie. He had indeed recognized the gap between him and the Hachiko clan. He had been thinking about and judging the specific gap between them. However, he wasn't overwhelmed.
The disappointment in his heart was inevitable, and Lu An also acknowledged the sense of defeat. However, the disappointment and frustration brought about by the failure would not make Lu An depressed all the time. Instead, it would become the motivation for him to work hard, making him work even harder to make up for it.
Lu An was never one to belittle himself. Lu An would never deny himself. If his mentality wasn't strong enough, he would have long lost all his beliefs of progress and resistance when he was humiliated as a slave. He would have sunk into the same depravity as the other slaves.
Lu An took a light breath. He looked at the two girls and said softly, "Don't worry. I'm really fine. I'm just thinking about today's battle and how to deal with the opponent's strength. My Deep Ice couldn't gain any advantage in front of the Hachiko clan. I have to give up my old mindset of fighting. I have to get used to treating my Deep Ice as ordinary ice and the Ninth Heaven Sacred Fire as ordinary fire. I can't always rely on the uniqueness of my Fate Wheel. Otherwise, I won't be able to adjust my mentality and compete with the Hachiko clan. "
Hearing Lu An's words, the two girls were startled. They didn't expect Lu An to not be bound by the defeat. It seemed that they had worried too much.
Because of this, the two girls felt safer and knew that they didn't follow the wrong person.
"The last attack that the opponent used today should be a secret skill, not a Heaven Skill." Lu An continued to analyze today's battle, "That kind of power and form can't be formed by ordinary thunder and lightning. But from the way the opponent used it, the secret skill didn't cause any burden to him. That is to say, the opponent used a secret skill at will. It's possible that the Hachiko clan doesn't cultivate Heaven Skills at all, but specializes in secret skills."
Yao and Beauty Yang were surprised. Yao frowned and said, "The ultimate Fate Wheel of the Hachiko clan can compete with the Immortal Qi. It's possible."
Beauty Yang was shocked. Sure enough, the ultimate Fate Wheel of the Hachiko clan was different from other Fate Wheels. The Purple Town School used to be one of the top Fate Wheels. However, there were only less than 20 effective secret techniques developed from the Fate Wheels. Each of them was very difficult and troublesome to learn. On average, each person could only learn four types. Even the talented ones could only learn six to eight types. Most of the moves were Heaven Arts.
However, just like the people in the Celestial Region, all of their moves were based on Immortal Qi. There were countless Immortal Arts, enough to fill up the entire Hidden Scriptures Pavilion. Perhaps the Eight Ancient Clans were the same. All of their moves were based on the Fate Wheel. In this way, the power they could display was completely different from others!
However, the problem was that Lu An only had the Fate Wheel, but not the secret skill!
"Without the secret skill, my Fate Wheel can only appear in the most ordinary form. Its power will be greatly reduced." Lu An looked calm and said, "The secret skill must be the secret of every clan. Outsiders can't know about it. I can't get the Kang Clan's secret skill."
The two women nodded gently. The Kang Clan and Lu An were enemies. How could they give the secret skill to Lu An?
"Fu Yu said that I can't use the Death Force, especially in front of the Hachiko clan. I can't use too much Immortal Qi. Otherwise, the Hachiko clan is likely to transfer their hatred to Sengoku, which will cause Sengoku to be implicated by me. " Lu An continued, "Only the Ninth Heaven Sacred Fire is left. The Sacred Fire Tactics I got from the Sky Robber is a good match for the Ninth Heaven Sacred Fire."
Lu An asked his two wives, "What I asked Sister Yi to do before, is there any result?"
The two women were startled and immediately remembered something. When Lu An got the Sacred Fire Tactics, he felt that it was a perfect match for both the power and the form, which was very strange. In order to verify the relationship between the Sacred Fire Tactics and the Ninth Heaven Sacred Fire, he gave the Sacred Fire Tactics to Liu Yi and asked her to find a loyal Fire Celestial Master in the Ice and Fire Alliance to try to cultivate it.
"Liu Yi found four Celestial Masters, one of whom is a Level Eight Celestial Master. They are all very talented." Beauty Yang said, "But until now, none of them have succeeded. It is said that they haven't even taken the first step. They can't find a way."
Lu An's eyes turned cold. People who could become Level Eight Celestial Masters were naturally talented. Even Level Eight Celestial Masters couldn't take the first step, but he had mastered the move Breaking Dawn. He had to think more about the existence of the Sacred Fire Tactics.
Could it be that … the Sacred Fire Tactics was the secret skill of the Ninth Heaven Sacred Fire?
