Chapter 716: Chapter 378: Cooperation Conditions, Passing on the Divine Skill Technique_2
The strongholds holding the Da Yue Abyss finally found their opportunity to fight, being dispatched to clear out the rebels and Blood Disciples, Blood Slaves within the Da Yue territories, and to suppress other uprisings at the Heavenly Grottos.
Some of the strongholds were even sent to aid the Myriad Thunder Sect and the Tianwu Sect.
In the Da Yue Emperor's palace's detached compound, arrangements were made for Li Xuan and his group to stay. After the Emperor Da Yue apologized to the esteemed masters, he became busy with political affairs.
Within the detached compound, Cheng Zhan was laying out his terms.
Fang Hao and Su Lingxiu also made pledges, leaving Cheng Zhan no choice but to accept that it was impossible to invite them to join the Myriad Thunder Sect.
Nevertheless, there was room for cooperation.
The chaos in the Heavenly Grottoes had entered the stage of pacification, and it was time to make arrangements for the Spirit Body Prodigies who had come from the Spiritual Realm.
The people from Yuling Mansion swear allegiance to the Da Yue Dynasty, and a True King has already made the arrangements.
Out of respect for the esteemed masters, their treatment has improved, and they no longer need to worry about becoming cannon fodder.
The strongholders from the Spiritual Realm heaved a sigh of relief. Although they could not continue to follow the esteemed masters, being benefitted by their radiance, they received generous treatment, and the assurance of not becoming cannon fodder was enough.
Next, it was all about diligently cultivating, striving to breakthrough Condensation Law Heavenly Venerable, True King Heavenly Venerable, and even aim for the Immortal Heavenly Venerable.
They had heard that among the Immortal Heavenly Venerables of the Da Yue Country, one was once a Spirit Body Prodigy from the Spiritual Realm's Yuling Mansion.
The Martial Artists from Yuling Mansion pledged their services to him.
Cheng Zhan took the people from Leiyun Mountain Manor and Thousand Martial Hall away, those who pledged to Myriad Thunder Sect, were sent there, and those who belonged to Tianwu Sect, were escorted to it.
As for Fu Tianhai, Emperor Da Zhou, Xin Mengrou and others, their upper Sects were not in the Qinghua state, so they had to wait for representatives from their own Sects to come.
Emperor Da Yue had arranged for messages to be sent to each of their Sects, but it would take some time for their people to arrive.
According to what Cheng Zhan said, the Sects under the Spiritual Realm outside of Qinghua state were all the responsibility of Da Yue Country to communicate with, and the upper Sects, within the time Divine Bridge was open, would mostly come to Qinghua state.
Originally, each Sect had dispatched personnel to Lingguan City, but since Lingguan City had been destroyed, only Da Yue Country was left to send the messages.
Xin Mengrou, Fu Tianhai, Emperor Da Zhou and others could only temporarily reside in the capital of the Da Yue Country, waiting for people from their respective upper Sects to arrive.
Because the Da Yue Abyss had been leveled, Da Yue Country was able to dispatch more strongholds to sweep through their territory, killing off the invading Blood Disciples, Blood Slaves, and rebels.
Moreover, Immortal Heavenly Venerables took this opportunity to pacify the Grottoes across the land.
The grand battle between the Myriad Thunder Sect and the Tianwu Sect was coming to an end with the support of the strongholds from Da Yue Country. Whether it was the Sect Master of Myriad Thunder or the Tianwu Clan Master, both were greatly shocked. Could it really be that such a high personage had descended upon Qinghua state?
They, like the Emperor Da Zhou, all suspected that the appearance of this high personage was to thwart the schemes of the Netherworld.
In the Capital City of Da Yue, two adjacent Martial Arts Institutes rose from the ground, namely the Qimen Institute and the Alchemical Medical Institute, and Fang Hao and Su Lingxiu had already been stationed there.
Accompanying Su Lingxiu were Yue'er, Meng Shushu, Zhou Ying, as well as Du Yuying and Yun Miaomiao, who were responsible for helping with the affairs of the Alchemical Medical Institute.
Within the Qimen Institute, Moon Changming still followed Fang Hao, and the Emperor Da Zhou had also dispatched assistants.
Su Lingxiu began to treat the wounds of Da Yue Country's Martial Artists, ordinary injuries were treated with pills, but for injuries that affected their foundation, Su Lingxiu would personally take action.
Of course, treatment was not free.
After arriving in the Divine Realm, everything began to move onto the right track as they started on their respective paths of Martial Arts.
Xu Yan and Meng Chong, for the time being, did not venture out for further experiences but instead focused on consolidating themselves, perceiving their Divine Skills, and practicing the Divine Skills from the Divine Skill Martial Code.
Xie Lingfeng was also seizing every moment to cultivate desperately.
Wu Tianan painted a portrait. This was the mentor who had guided him in Martial Arts, and the person he had been seeking throughout his life.
Now that he was in the Divine Realm, he naturally had to continue his search.
Relying on his association with those under the esteemed master, Wu Tianan searched for strongholds in Da Yue and inquired about news.
However, he found no trace.
Neither Emperor Da Zhou nor any of the Immortal Heavenly Venerables, nor even the strongholds that once came from the Spiritual Realm, had seen the person in his portrait.
But Wu Tianan was not discouraged; the Divine Realm was vast, and Qinghua was only part of it.
He would eventually find a clue someday.
"Senior, the path of my Martial Arts has been made clear. I feel that I have found the suitable Martial Arts path for me to follow, but I fear that my power is insufficient to traverse the Divine Realm in search of this person.
"The Divine Skills, may I also practice them?" Wu Tianan asked, prostrating on the ground.
Li Xuan glanced at him, pondered for a moment, and then replied, "Whether you can practice Divine Skills depends on yourself. If you wish to learn, it's alright to pass on a few Divine Skills to you."
He did not object to passing on Divine Skills to those who practice Taicang Martial Arts. After all, if it was Taicang Martial Arts, they could also cultivate Divine Skills, and ultimately, he would still benefit.
Even the Taicang Martial Arts could assimilate and become tinged with traces of his Martial Arts.
The wider the spread of Martial Arts, the more he, as the Martial Ancestor, stood to gain.
"Many thanks, senior!"
Wu Tianan was beyond excited, bowing respectfully.
"I'll pass on a few Divine Skills to you."
Li Xuan pondered for a moment, and then passed on a few minor Divine Skills that Xu Yan had already comprehended to Wu Tianan, as well as two other appropriate Divine Skills that had yet to be mastered.
Raising his hand to point, he directly transmitted the Divine Skill Techniques into Wu Tianan's Divine Soul.
Wu Tianan's spirits lifted, feeling as though suddenly, within his Divine Soul and consciousness, the marvelous Divine Skill Techniques had emerged. Just upon carefully contemplating them, he sensed their profound mysteries and experienced a feeling of being unable to fully comprehend them.
"Many thanks, senior!"
Li Xuan nodded.
Upon seeing this, Xie Tianheng's spirits also lifted. The Martial Arts he practiced were neither the Great Wilderness Martial Arts nor purely Taicang Martial Arts, but generally, the path of the Martial Arts still followed that of the Taicang way.
"Honorable one, I too wish to comprehend Divine Skills!"
Xie Tianheng bowed respectfully.
He was a disciple of Li Xuan's Sword Dao and had a closer relationship with him than Wu Tianan.
"Very well!"
Li Xuan passed several Divine Skills to Xie Tianheng, including those of the Sword Dao Divine Skills.
Xin Mengrou was somewhat tempted, but she was ultimately too shy and not close enough to brazenly ask for the Divine Skill Techniques.
Du Yuying and Yun Miaomiao's eyes lit up; they had always coveted the Divine Skill Techniques, and now was their opportunity.
"Senior, we too wish to learn Divine Skills!"
"Alright then!"
Li Xuan nodded, considering that these two girls were practically like his own disciples; there was no reason not to allow them.
With a wave of his hand, he transmitted several Divine Skills to the two women, and without waiting for Zi Yun to ask, he also passed the techniques to her.
He casually passed them to Yue'er and Moon Changming as well.
"Regarding the Divine Skill Techniques, if you manage to comprehend them, or feel someone else should inherit them, then pass them on; they are not exclusively Martial Arts secrets," Li Xuan finally said.
"Yes, senior!"
Xin Mengrou inwardly relaxed, knowing she could also gain the Divine Skill Techniques from Du Yuying and Yun Miaomiao.
"Having passed on so many Divine Skills, how many will be able to comprehend them? If Taicang Martial Arts practitioners find a way to cultivate Divine Skills, the strength of Taicang Martial Arts will receive no small enhancement," Li Xuan pondered to himself.
Zi Yun, having received the Divine Skill Techniques, furrowed her brows cutely, unable to understand them. Her eyes twinkling, she approached Meng Chong, took his hand, and asked him to explain the Divine Skill Techniques to her.
Meng Chong wore a helpless expression on his face.
Du Yuying and Yun Miaomiao's eyes shined brighter, and they went immediately to seek Xu Yan's guidance, although Yue'er had already taken the first step to do so.
Seeing this, Xu Yan had no choice but to explain Divine Skills to everyone; such matters surely couldn't trouble their master, right? As the eldest senior brother, it was his responsibility.
Thus, Wu Tianan, Xie Tianheng, and the others were all listening to Xu Yan's explanations of Divine Skills, and even Xu Yan was pointing out directions for cultivating Divine Skills within the Taicang Martial Arts path.
Li Xuan listened silently for a while, then couldn't help but nod, "Indeed worthy of being the pioneer of my Martial Arts, having quite an understanding of Taicang Martial Arts and surpassing everyone else in his insights into Martial Arts.
"Xu Yan is the one with the best chance of truly carving his own Martial Arts path," he thought.
Xu Yan's Martial Arts lay in purity—a multi-faceted purity, not a singular one—bearing a sense that all Martial Arts lie in the heart, to be wielded as one desires.
Of course, Xu Yan was not yet able to have Martial Arts in his heart and wield them as he wished, but he already had the foundation and outline for it.
This was also the solid ground upon which Xu Yan established his own path in Martial Arts.
Li Xuan looked forward to finding out what he himself would gain when Xu Yan carved out his own path in Martial Arts!
