I Fabricated the Techniques, but my disciple really mastered them?-Chapter 553 - 300: The Thousand Martial Lord’s Plan, Because You’re Too Weak_2
The originally gleaming Spirit Crystal was now reflecting a colorful halo that constantly changed, resembling the rotation of the four seasons.
At the rear of the lobby, there were several small Spirit Crystal houses. Five of these Spirit Crystal houses were closed, clearly with people inside cultivating in seclusion.
The Thousand Martial Lord watched for a while, the profound aura that permeated from the Spirit Crystal mine into the lobby was very faintly absorbed into the five Spirit Crystal houses.
"All Ages Alliance, Wu Tianan, the essence of the Transcendent Spirit Sect is not something you can comprehend. You are bound to fail in the competition of the Prodigies!"
A murderous intent filled the heart of the Thousand Martial Lord.
"In the past, the Ten Thousand Stars Martial Academy recruited too many Spirit-body Prodigies, allowing you to show some power. Our core prodigies from the Transcendent Spirit Sect have yet to act."
"This time, let the Loose Cultivators of the Ling Domain witness the true power of our core prodigies from the Transcendent Spirit Sect!
"Wu Tianan, you're a country bumpkin. You think that just because you've practiced some Martial Arts and reached the Spirit Realm Limit, you can act recklessly?
"You're eager to cross the Divine Bridge, but I won't let you!"
Gazing at the five Spirit Crystal houses, the Thousand Martial Lord's expression relaxed. However monstrous Xu Yan was, he could never be compared to the core prodigies from the Transcendent Spirit Sect.
The core prodigies of the Transcendent Spirit Sect have rarely shown themselves in the Ling Domain since time immemorial, and even when they do, their names are never revealed and remain unknown to many.
"The existence of the Transcendent Spirit Sect is for the core prodigies... Wu Tianan, you're nothing but a frog in a well."
The Thousand Martial Lord muttered to himself, then entered an empty Spirit Crystal house and began to cultivate.
…
Xu Yan was preparing to find a place to break through when he suddenly came to a halt and turned around to see a figure rapidly approaching.
The man, who looked like a teacher, had a measuring scale in his hand.
"My, he's powerful!"
The strongest he could sense was this man.
"Friend Xu Yan, please wait a moment."
Wu Tianan greeted him with a smile.
"Who are you?"
Xu Yan halted and asked.
"Wu Tianan."
Wu Tianan's face was filled with smiles. He was very interested in Xu Yan, whose Sword Dao was extremely profound and marvelous.
"What do you want with me?"
Xu Yan pondered; he had never heard of such a powerful figure before.
Looking at the other's appearance, he didn't seem to be from the Spirit Sect. With such immense strength, appearing in front of the Thousand Martial Hall, and intimidating the strength of Thousand Martial Hall, he most likely belonged to the All Ages Alliance.
Could he be the Alliance Hierarch of the All Ages Alliance?
"I noticed that you appear to be a Loose Cultivator, but your Sword Dao is truly astounding and extraordinary, hence my curiosity. May I ask where did you learn your skills?"
Wu Tianan asked with a smile.
"My master is a recluse. The Sword Dao he taught me is naturally unique in this world. To me, the so-called Sword Dao in the Spirit Realm is nothing more than entry-level. All they have touched upon is the threshold of Sword Dao, and they are still far from true competence. To put it bluntly, there is only Swordsmanship in the Spirit Realm and not Sword Dao!"
Xu Yan pondered for a moment before speaking.
Wu Tianan's lip twitched. There was no Sword Dao in the Spirit Realm?
What a bold claim!
But then again, given Xu Yan's mysterious Sword Dao, it was plausible that he would think this way, since the Sword Dao of the Spirit Realm could not achieve such profoundness and wonderment.
If, in Xu Yan's eyes, they haven't even entered the gates of Sword Dao, it wasn't surprising.
As for saying that there is only Swordsmanship but no Sword Dao in the Spirit Realm ... Wu Tianan pondered for a moment, feeling that there was some truth to it.
The Sword Dao in the Spirit Realm centered around the art of killing and exquisite moves, but when compared to Xu Yan's Sword Dao, it fell short. When Xu Yan made his moves, no traces of Swordsmanship could be detected. He had long transcended the scope of Swordsmanship.
So, is this the true Sword Dao?
"Your Master's Sword Dao is indeed one of a kind. It arouses my admiration. I wonder if I could visit your Master to express my respect?"
Wu Tianan asked with his heart moved.
Xu Yan thought for a moment and replied, "To pay a visit to my master, you need his permission. I don't have the authority to decide. After all, my master abhors disputes and prefers to live in a quiet environment. Since you are the Alliance Hierarch of the All Ages Alliance, you can ask Yuzhou Alliance Hierarch to convey your intention."
Wu Tianan was startled. The Yuzhou Alliance Hierarch could contact Xu Yan's master?
He shook his head and said, "You have misunderstood. I am neither the Alliance Hierarch of the All Ages Alliance nor a member."
"Then who are you?"
Xu Yan was surprised. The other party was neither the Alliance Hierarch of All Ages Alliance nor a member of the All Ages Alliance. Could it be a strong individual from Transcendent Spirit Sect?
Wu Tianan pondered for a moment before asking: "Have you ever heard of Ten Thousand Stars Martial Academy?"
"I know a bit, the rumor has it that the Spirit Sect destroyed Ten Thousand Stars Martial Academy, it already disappeared from the Eighteen States."
Xu Yan nodded.
"Are you a member of the Ten Thousand Stars Martial Academy?"
Wu Tianan was much stronger than Moon Changming, even though Moon Changming had condensed the Heavenly Earth Lingji and even comprehended some Heaven and Earth Laws, his strength was not as strong as Wu Tianan.
One of the thirty-six heroes of Ten Thousand Stars?
"I was once the headmaster of Ten Thousand Stars Martial Academy."
Wu Tianan gave a bitter smile.
Xu Yan knew about Ten Thousand Stars Martial Academy, but he didn't know that Wu Tianan was the headmaster of Ten Thousand Stars Martial Academy. It showed that not much information about Ten Thousand Stars Martial Academy had been handed down in the Eighteen States anymore.
Xu Yan was full of surprise, "You were the headmaster of Ten Thousand Stars Martial Academy?"
"Exactly!"
Wu Tianan ruminated, "In the battle of the Martial Academy years ago, I was attacked and plotted against. I was then ambushed by the old guy of the Thousand Martial Hall and seriously injured. Ultimately, the Martial Academy could not recover and was broken up, withdrawing from the Eighteen States."
Xu Yan suddenly realized. No wonder Wu Tianan would appear in the Thousand Martial Hall, so it turns out that he had such a deep hatred with them.
"However, it's for the better. I've unburdened myself and can act freely now. If the Spirit Sect violates the rules of the competition for talent, I can fight back without hesitation.
"Ha, I, Wu Tianan, have walked all the way from the mountain village in the Inner Domain to the peak of Spiritual Realm Martial Arts. The Spirit Sect can't manipulate me as they wish."
Wu Tianan said with a cold smile.
Xu Yan was full of surprise. Wu Tianan came from the Inner Domain?
Moreover, he was the headmaster of Ten Thousand Stars Martial Academy. The Seven-star Study Palace, the superior of the Inner Domain in the Spirit Realm, was from Ten Thousand Stars Martial Academy. Could Wu Tianan possibly be the ancestor of the Seven-star Study Palace?
Thinking about this, Xu Yan suddenly became interested.
"You come from the Inner Domain? Could you be the ancestor of the Seven-star Study Palace?"
Wu Tianan was shocked, "How do you know about the Seven-star Study Palace?"
"I have heard of it. The Gate of Lingyu was opened, and some people came from the Inner Domain. I heard them talking about it."
Xu Yan nodded.
He did not mention that he came from the Inner Domain. The necessary caution should always be maintained.
"I see!"
Wu Tianan finally understood. He knew a thing or two about the opening of the Gate of Lingyu.
"Yes, I am the founder of the Seven-star Study Palace."
There was no need to hide this.
"I wonder how the Seven-star Study Palace is doing now?"
Speaking of the academy he founded in the Inner Domain, he still felt a trace of nostalgia, and sighs arose in his heart.
"I heard it changed its name."
Xu Yan replied.
"The name was changed, huh."
Wu Tianan sighed regretfully and didn't inquire further.
He respectfully said, "Ever since I reached the pinnacle of Spiritual Realm Martial Arts, I've hardly met a worthy opponent in the Spirit Realm or someone I could discuss Martial Arts with. I suppose your master must be a great master. His strength must have reached the peak of the Spirit Realm by now.
"I want to seek advice from your master, exchange knowledge about martial arts, as well as secrets about heaven and earth in the Spirit Realm."
He revealed his intentions.
Although Xin Mengrou's strength was not weaker than his, after all, she was a member of the Taimiao Sect. The Transcendent Spirit Sect had its own traditional martial arts, so they naturally had a better understanding of the secrets of heaven and earth in the Spirit Realm.
Finally, he came across a martial artist whose strength would not be weaker than his own, and whose sword dao was truly one of a kind. Wu Tianan was confident that as a martial arts scholar and also a Loose Cultivator like him, they would surely have a common language.
Perhaps they could become confidants and explore the secrets of heaven and earth in the Spirit Realm together.
However, Xu Yan shook his head and said, "There's no problem if you want to ask my master for advice. I'm sure my master can guide you. But if it's about exchanging martial art experiences, that's not going to happen."
"Why not?"
Wu Tianan was puzzled. Was Xu Yan's master a stubborn person who was wary of imparting his martial arts knowledge to anyone else?
Xu Yan thought for a while and decided to tell the straight truth, "Because you're too weak!"
Wu Tianan was dumbfounded.
His mind kept echoing Xu Yan's words: because you're too weak!
This was the first time he had heard someone say he was weak!
Even in the confrontation with the Spirit Sect years ago, when he was severely wounded by the previous Lord of the Thousand Martial Hall, the other party did not dare to scorn him by saying: you're too weak!
And yet Xu Yan had actually said that he was too weak?!
