I Fabricated the Techniques, but my disciple really mastered them?-Chapter 757 - 398 Meeting the Seductive Witch_2
Xu Yan assessed his current strength, and the defense formed by Physiognomy and the Yin Yang Undying Sword was so formidable that ordinary Immortal Heavenly Venerables couldn’t harm him.
"However, if I were to encounter an Immortal Heavenly Venerable as powerful as Emperor Da Yue, I would still be crushed in a single blow, but I am no longer afraid of weaker Immortal Heavenly Venerables like Sui Hongwu and Feng Yan."
Xu Yan suddenly felt a surge of confidence.
He was invincible below the Immortal Heavenly Venerables.
This was only the entrance to the Physiognomy Realm.
There were few among the Immortal Heavenly Venerables as strong as Emperor Da Yue, even in the Nine Mountain Realm.
Of course, the Immortal Heavenly Venerables who were weaker than Emperor Da Yue but stronger than Feng Yan still posed a significant danger to Xu Yan.
But now that he had advanced to this step in his realm, he truly had the confidence to escape even if he couldn’t win.
"Once my Physiognomy Realm reaches Perfection, I will no longer fear an Immortal Heavenly Venerable like Emperor Da Yue, nor will I be affected by him."
Emperor Da Yue was a strong Immortal Heavenly Venerable, but certainly not the strongest, which he clearly understood himself.
"Once I enter the Void-breaking Realm, Immortal Heavenly Venerables will truly no longer be a threat to me."
Only by breaking through to the Void-breaking Realm can one truly ignore the threats of Immortal Heavenly Venerables.
The Power of Void-breaking, which belongs to the Void-breaking Realm, pierces through the domain of space, and in a sense, can precisely break through the Domain Power associated with Immortal Heavenly Venerables.
It’s like having a control over the Domain Power, which in itself restrains the Immortal Heavenly Venerables.
"The Seductive Witch is in Thousand Layered Mountain, should I go have a look? With my current strength, I should be able to handle it."
Xu Yan pondered for a moment and decided to investigate the situation at Thousand Layered Mountain.
However, before heading to Thousand Layered Mountain, Xu Yan sent a message to Wan Tianlin to inquire about the progress of the investigation into the forces behind the scenes.
To Xu Yan’s surprise, even the Wan Family hadn’t found out the identity of the hidden forces.
"They hide deep indeed, now that I’ve shown myself, let’s see if they continue to target me."
Xu Yan sneered to himself.
As long as they targeted him, he would have an easy time handling them by directly controlling their Divine Soul Consciousness with Destiny of the Heavenly Intent, and naturally, he would learn about the forces behind the scenes.
"However, to control and subdue Martial Artists at the late stage and peak of True King Heavenly Venerable, some weakening is needed first."
Xu Yan contemplated for a moment.
Even though he had broken through to the Physiognomy Realm and the power of Destiny of the Heavenly Intent had increased significantly, it was still difficult to hold True King Heavenly Venerables in the late stage and at the peak, as they could easily break free from the control of Destiny of the Heavenly Intent.
"Although Destiny of the Heavenly Intent is a remarkable Divine Skill, my cultivation is still not profound enough, I need to spend some time to enhance this skill further."
Divine Skills that involve controlling Divine Souls and consciousness are inherently challenging to use across realm boundaries.
"If Fifth Junior Brother were an initiate of Extreme Soul Martial Arts, with his Extreme Soul Power, using such Divine Skills would be much more formidable!"
Xu Yan thought of Jiang Ping, who cultivated the Extreme Soul Martial Arts, the ultimate path of Divine Souls, which naturally made Divine Skills and Dharma related to the Divine Soul stronger.
"Extreme Soul Martial Arts..."
Xu Yan was lost in thought, wondering if he too could reference the Extreme Soul Martial Arts Method to transform his Primordial Spirit and make it purer?
If the Primordial Spirit truly attained purity and became invulnerable to all evil, it would definitely be another transformation.
Xu Yan had some enlightenment in his heart.
"Still not found the person?"
At the boundary between Dahai Mountain and Thousand Layered Mountain, two True King Heavenly Venerables met.
"No!"
The respondent looked troubled.
That Xu Yan was truly adept at hiding; once he went into hiding, he could not be found no matter what.
Without finding the person, how could they complete the mission?
How to lure the person into the Heavenly Grotto?
To lure Xu Yan to the Heavenly Grotto, they had deliberately prepared a Seven Wonders Divine Flower.
That was a real heavenly material treasure, coveted by True King Heavenly Venerables, let alone Immortal Heavenly Venerables who would even fight to snatch it.
If they couldn’t lure Xu Yan to the Heavenly Grotto, their incompetence would render them useless, and without any reward, they might even face a graveless death!
"Should we release news of the treasure? If Xu Yan discovers it, he will surely enter the Heavenly Grotto."
"The treasure is so wonderful, once news spreads, even Immortal Heavenly Venerables would enter, how could the plan proceed?"
Both True Kings were distressed.
Suddenly, one of the True King Heavenly Venerables’ eyes lit up, "Is that Xu Yan?"
"Indeed, he seems to be heading to Thousand Layered Mountain, let’s move quickly, don’t let him spot anything off; since he has appeared, things will be easier!"
The two True Kings were overjoyed.
Without betraying any emotion, like True King Heavenly Venerables merely passing by, they conversed in low voices while continuing to move forward.
"In the Seductive Witch’s Heavenly Grotto, there seems to be a suspected divine treasure; is it true?"
"Indeed, it is said to be the Seven Wonders Divine Flower, a divine object of Heaven and Earth that can enhance the Divine Soul and purify the foundation of Martial Arts. By settling the mind and concentrating the spirit, it allows one to comprehend the profound mysteries of Martial Arts. Even an Immortal Heavenly Venerable would be green with envy."
"With such a divine object, our chance to break through to become Immortal Heavenly Venerables has arrived."
"That’s right, this matter is secret and must not be disclosed. This Heavenly Grotto is just a minor one, not many pay attention to it..."
The two True King Heavenly Venerables, pretending not to have noticed Xu Yan’s traces, whispered as they stealthily moved on.
Unintentionally, they revealed the existence of the Seven Wonders Divine Flower treasure within the Seductive Witch’s Heavenly Grotto.
"The Seductive Witch’s Heavenly Grotto in Thousand Layered Mountain? Is the Seductive Witch here?"
Xu Yan moved silently, having long noticed the two True King Heavenly Venerables. He intentionally exposed a trace of his presence, wanting to see these two people’s reaction.
To his surprise, they disclosed the information about the treasure, seemingly luring him to the Heavenly Grotto.
"The Seven Wonders Divine Flower..."
Xu Yan was somewhat tempted; this Seven Wonders Divine Flower clearly was a valuable item. The enhancement of the Divine Soul was secondary; what he really cared about was that the Seven Wonders Divine Flower could help a Martial Artist to experience the marvels of Martial Arts.
Even Immortal Heavenly Venerables were moved by it, clearly showing the high rank of the Seven Wonders Divine Flower, which was also of great use to him at his current stage.
The Blood Heart Fruit could make one more receptive to comprehending Cultivation Techniques in a short period, and since the Seven Wonders Divine Flower was of a higher rank than the Blood Heart Fruit, perhaps it indeed could help him grasp the essence of the Domain Martial Arts Law.
"Even if I can’t fully grasp the Domain Cultivation Method, it can still help me organize my own Martial Arts, comprehend them, and even cultivate more powerful Divine Skills..."
Xu Yan was moved; he followed the two True Kings quietly from not too far behind.
The two True Kings conversed softly, exchanging covert glances, unsure whether Xu Yan had heard their "secret."
After all, Xu Yan’s presence was secretive; if it weren’t for a coincidental glimpse earlier, they wouldn’t have been able to detect him.
The two of them used this to their advantage, letting Xu Yan think he was undetected and had accidentally overheard such a secret.

"Speak cautiously, lest someone overhears."
Towards the end of their conversation, as if suddenly vigilant, they began to look around, making it seem like they were preventing eavesdropping.
"Don’t worry, unless it’s an Immortal Heavenly Venerable, who can escape our senses?"
"Makes sense!"
In secret, however, they communicated through voice transmission, "Where is Xu Yan?"
"Haven’t found him. He hasn’t heard our conversation, has he?"
"Impossible. We didn’t notice him, so Xu Yan must have noticed us for sure."
The two harbored some trepidation. What if Xu Yan hadn’t heard the secret?
Or, what if he was unmoved by it?
The two True King Heavenly Venerables were inwardly vexed but dared not stop, as they had to keep moving to avoid revealing any flaws to Xu Yan.
"Eh, why does it feel a bit off?"
Suddenly, one of the True King Heavenly Venerables spoke up with a start.
For some reason, it felt as if they had entered a new Domain.
"This is bad!"
Suddenly, his expression drastically changed.
But it was too late. Amid the rippling waves, a circle of Heaven and Earth Laws surrounded them, with Golden Dragons coiling and Mountain and River hiding them from view.
In that instant, a hand landed on the top of his head.
Hum!
In a daze, his Divine Soul stirred, an overwhelming Destiny of the Heavenly Intent left no room for resistance.
Xu Yan had finally decided to take action. The Seductive Witch posed a significant threat, but the Seven Wonders Divine Flower was too rare, and potentially a divine item from beyond the Domain.
If the Seductive Witch meant to offer it to him, how could he not accept?
It was time to meet the Seductive Witch! However, before that, some preparations were necessary, like taking control of the two True King Heavenly Venerables.
The strength of the True King Heavenly Venerables in their later stages was not weak; controlling them would require the use of some methods.
Xu Yan’s Mountain and River Sword Intent blended into the environment, lying in wait for the two True King Heavenly Venerables to enter before suddenly striking, catching them off guard.
In an instant, Xu Yan controlled one of the True King Heavenly Venerables with the Destiny of the Heavenly Intent, while the other, sensing something amiss, roared angrily, his aura bursting forth, trying to break free from the constraints of the Mountain and River Sword Intent.
