I Fabricated the Techniques, but my disciple really mastered them?-Chapter 569 - 308: Divine Body of Mountains and Rivers, Life-Risking Assassination_2
...
At the entrance to the Thousand Martial Hall in the land of Qian Wu, many martial artists lingered, waiting for Xu Yan's return.
They wanted to see if the pride of the Thousand Martial Hall would be forced out of hiding.
Wu Tianan was pondering whether to leave Qian Wu or stay and wait for Xu Yan's appearance.
After all, without his potential deterrence, the despicable members of the Thousand Martial Hall might intervene personally, bullying the weak with their strength.
But he was truly curious to meet Xu Yan's master.
An existence beyond Heaven and Earth?
That was a power he did not dare to even dream of.
"If Xu Yan is correct, why would a disciple of such a terrifying existence be threatened by the Thousand Martial Hall? There's no need for me to worry about him."
After much consideration, Wu Tianan couldn't resist his curiosity and turned to leave for the Wanshi Alliance headquarters to find the Alliance Hierarch of Yuzhou, intending to personally inquire whether he could visit Xu Yan's master.
Inside the Thousand Martial Hall, about a dozen talented martial artists were sitting with their legs crossed. They were from all the major Spirit Sects in Qian Wu, and even the weakest had reached the mid-stage of Refining God Heavenly Man.
The most formidable had even reached the peak stage of the Refining God Heavenly Man.
Of course, their cultivation level appeared inflated, but their power was significantly boosted.
This was all done by the Thousand Martial Hall to be ready for Xu Yan's challenge.
"This Self-Annihilation Killing Mechanism, combining your Divine Souls, vitality, and everything you have, is a real ultimate move and a must-have technique for the elites of the Thousand Martial Hall.
"This is a mutual destruction technique; once it's triggered, you wouldn't live long.
"But when you are outclassed, it gives you the assurance to mutually destruct with your enemy, knowing that they will die too."
The four elders sat at four corners, gathering strands of their energy and infusing them into the bodies of the young elites, helping them to gather the Self-Annihilation Killing Mechanism.
Without the help of these formidable powers, these talents wouldn't be able to gather the Self-Annihilation Killing Mechanism.
"The opportunity to make meritorious contributions for the Thousand Martial Hall is coming. You are now disciples of the Thousand Martial Hall, the pride of Thousand Martial Hall.
"When danger comes, do not hesitate to trigger the Self-Annihilation Killing Mechanism!
"Martial artists from the Thousand Martial Hall must possess this courage and determination. Do you understand?"
The group of elites looked serious, but their eyes were firm. This was an opportunity to become a disciple of the Transcendent Spirit Sect.
Even if they died, their families and powers behind them would benefit greatly.
"We understand!"
The group of elites replied firmly.
"Good!"
The elder of the Thousand Martial Hall showed a smile.
Meanwhile, in a secret room of the Thousand Martial Hall, five young men who all had reached the peak stage of Refining God Heavenly Man were sitting cross-legged.
These five men were the publicly known elites of the Thousand Martial Hall.
At this moment, they were also gathering the Self-Annihilation Killing Mechanism with the help of the elders.
Compared with the talents from the three countries, the seven sects and the eight noble families, the elites cultivated by the Thousand Martial Hall personally were undoubtedly stronger.
Even if they had achieved the peak stage of Refining God Heavenly Man by means of special means in a short period of time, and their cultivation level appeared inflated, their power was still far stronger than that of regular peak-stage Refining God Heavenly Man martial artists.
"Your Self-Annihilation Killing Mechanism is extraordinary. When the time comes, you must use it decisively. As elites of the Thousand Martial Hall, you absolutely cannot be timid or hesitate!"
An elder said in a heavy voice.
"Elder, rest assured, even if we can't defeat Xu Yan, even if we die, we will never let Xu Yan get away with it!"
A few disciples of the Thousand Martial Hall said coldly.
"Good!"
The elder smiled satisfyingly.
In another secret location within the Thousand Martial Hall, the Thousand Martial Lord walked in.
"How is it going?"
Looking at the young man sitting cross-legged, a long knife resting across his knees, he turned to the elder next to him who was responsible for the knife and asked.
"It's successful. The Shockingly Cold Knife can now be used."
The elder responsible for the knife said in a low voice.
The Shockingly Cold Knife was one of the Divine Artifacts of the Thousand Martial Hall.
"Lord, do we really need to use the Divine Artifact? And it's for the Self-Annihilation Killing Mechanism to activate the Shockingly Cold Knife."
The elder responsible for the knife asked incredulously.
Was Xu Yan so powerful that he could force the Thousand Martial Hall to resort to this?
Even the Divine Artifact had to be used.
Moreover, in order to avoid being influenced by Xu Yan's Sword Dao, the Shockingly Cold Knife, a Divine Artifact, was deliberately chosen as the weapon. However, just being at the peak of refining God Heavenly Man wasn't enough to activate the power of the Divine Artifact.
Therefore, he infused a thread of condensed Heavenly Earth Lingji into the Shockingly Cold Knife, blended it with the disciple's Divine Soul, and used the Self-Annihilation Killing Mechanism as the activation, to burst out the power of the Shockingly Cold Knife in one go.
Such a move would be enough to kill even those powerful beings who had condensed a strand of Heavenly Earth Lingji.
They plan to use it against Xu Yan!
No matter how strong Xu Yan is, it's far from enough to resist those who have successfully condensed the Heavenly Earth Lingji.
If it really comes to the point where all these measures need to be used, it means that the prodigies of the Thousand Martial Hall would all undoubtedly die.
Of course, the death of these apparent prodigies would not cause too much damage to the Thousand Martial Hall, after all, the existence of the Hall is to cultivate core prodigies.
In the end, their generation of elders, controlling the Thousand Martial Hall, can continue to prolong the time, waiting to nurture the appropriate successors.
"A prepared mind fears no trouble!"
The Thousand Martial Lord calmly said.
"Wu Tianan, has he really reached that step? If he sets foot on the Divine Bridge, wouldn't…"
The Elder Blade Master said with a serious face.
The Thousand Martial Hall probably harbors the strongest grudge against Wu Tianan.
"He won't have a chance!"
The Thousand Martial Lord said expressionlessly.
"I'll go see the old preceptors."
The Thousand Martial Lord turned and left.
"Master, is it really necessary for those old preceptors to do this?"
The Elder Blade Master said heavily.
"Not necessarily targeting Xu Yan, it could also be targeting the All Ages Alliance. They are old, their lifespan isn't much longer and they have no chance to set foot on the Divine Bridge. For their descendants, they will be willing to gamble once.
"This is a tradition within the Thousand Martial Hall."
Having said that, the Thousand Martial Lord turned and left.
The Elder Blade Master fell silent, as one of those old preceptors was the person who brought him into the Thousand Martial Hall.
"Perhaps this is the best end."
The Elder Blade Master sighed.
Without the qualification to step onto the Divine Bridge, eventually, their lifespan will exhaust, and choosing to gamble before death, hoping to win a better treatment for their successors.
'Preceptors, have you all prepared?'
The Thousand Martial Hall Master looked at several old men with white hair and kindly features and asked in a deep voice.
"Master, rest assured, we are already ready."
An old man with a wrinkled face smiled and said.
'That's good, just wait for the command.'
The Thousand Martial Hall master nodded his head.
These old preceptors were the elders of the Thousand Martial Hall, who were also considered prodigies in their prime. Those who could become disciples of the Thousand Martial Hall surely had the title of prodigies.
Either they encountered some accidents and their realm could no longer be promoted, or their talent was ultimately limited and they could no longer continue on the path of martial arts.
Despite this, these individuals cultivated themselves for such a long time, combined with the secret technique they practiced in order to prepare for the present mission.
There have always been such a group of people in the Thousand Martial Hall.
Just like before, when they were contesting with the Wanxing Martial Arts Academy, and when they destroyed the Blood Demon Sect, it was the same.
The foundation and hidden strengths of the Transcendent Spirit Sect were far more complex than they seemed.
This is not only true for the Thousand Martial Hall, but for the rest of the Transcendent Spirit Sect as well.
"Wu Tianan, All Ages Alliance, how will you fight?"
The Thousand Martial Lord sneered in his heart.
"Xu Yan, a young man with some talents, is so self-conceited. Do you really think that you are the most honoured prodigy in the Ling Domain? Throughout the ages of the Ling Domain, countless monsters have emerged, which one of them has shaken the Spirit Sect?
"How many monsters who opposed the Spirit Sect have turned to dust? The Blood Demon was one of them, you, Xu Yan, will not be an exception!"
A murderous intent flashed in the eyes of the Thousand Martial Lord.
The half-month period is about to come, he wanted to see if Xu Yan could still be so arrogant!
There were more and more martial artists outside the gate of the Thousand Martial Hall, even including experts who had rushed here from other regions.
They all wanted to witness the rise of a monster, and also see the fall of a monster.
Xu Yan is the first person in the history of the Ling Domain to challenge at the gate of the Transcendent Spirit Sect and set up a ring.
In the crowd, a giant eagle landed on a large tree. There was a small palace on the back of the eagle, Cui Huayu, wearing a colourful feather coat, poked her head out of the palace.
"Xu Yan, what a brave man!"
Cui Huayu could not help but sigh. As one of the direct disciples of the Yu Ling Mansion, he was also a well-known prodigy. Since witnessing the battle between Xu Yan and Lu Xinting, he was deeply shocked.
It wasn't long after, Xu Yan became the first person to challenge the Transcendent Spirit Sect and set the ring at the gate of the sect.
I have to admire that!
