Pass on the technique?

Fang Wang's heart leaped with joy, but he managed to keep his face composed and said calmly, “If you're willing to teach, I'm naturally willing to learn. However, you must pass on something powerful. Ordinary spells won't be much help to me.”

The Solaris Scripture, True Combat Technique, Nine Dragons Divine Transformation Art, Jinghong Divine Sword Art—whoever mastered any of these could proudly stand above their peers, and he had already cultivated them to Great Perfection. His vision had accordingly risen.

Besides, he had mastered the White Rainbow Evasion Technique, Divine Nurturing Sword Qi, Body-protecting Divine Barrier, Great Celestial Thunder Technique, and the Breathless Natural Technique.

At present, he did not lack combat spells. Instead, he was interested in some of the more esoteric arts.

Such as sealing, soul snatching, divination, and so on.

Upon hearing his words, a broader smile appeared on Zhou Xue's face. She walked toward the couch nearby and called out in a light voice, “Come here.”

Fang Wang followed, eagerly anticipating what kind of spell this Immortal Venerable would bestow upon him.

Zhou Xue sat cross-legged on the couch and signaled Fang Wang to sit in front of her. Fang Wang, unflinching, joined her on the couch.

Xiao Zi poked its head out from his embrace, flicking its tongue, its serpentine gaze fixated on Zhou Xue.

Suddenly Zhou Xue waved her sleeve at it, and its neck twisted. It immediately lost consciousness, its forked tongue dangling out of its mouth, and then Zhou Xue pulled it out of his arms.

Fang Wang did not intervene, knowing Zhou Xue had something to say.

“Let's first address your initial question. I've done some investigating; the news came from a disciple of the third branch. Guang Qiuxian and Yang Yuanzi were both taken by surprise. If my guess isn't wrong, it's either Zhao Zhen's doing or Lu Yuanjun's,” Zhou Xue said softly, her eyes calm as a still lake.

Upon hearing this, Fang Wang wasn't too surprised; he'd previously suspected it was staged propaganda.

Lu Yuanjun and Zhao Zhen might not be aware that Fang Wang had learned the truth about the massacre night, but they themselves couldn't possibly forget.

Moreover, their passivity while Fang Wang's reputation skyrocketed just didn't make sense.

“Zhao Zhen has never left Great Abyss Gate, obviously wary of something. As for Lu Yuanjun, I was by his side when he clashed with the Demon Monarch. The world believes the Demon Monarch showed mercy, not realizing that it was Lu Yuanjun who escaped death by his own abilities. His Ghost Instrument has surpassed top-notch Magical Artifacts, reaching the rank of a Magical Treasure. It's very difficult for someone in the Condensation Spirit Realm to kill him.”

Upon saying this, Zhou Xue's eyes grew cold.

That powerful?

Fang Wang's eyebrows furrowed, and realizing that the Ghost Instrument had absorbed the souls of millions of people, he was then reassured.

Zhou Xue suddenly shifted the topic, saying, “But don't worry. Although he escaped with his life, he was severely injured and will likely need several years to recover.”

Fang Wang shook his head and replied, “I'm naturally not worried. If it really comes down to it, once I break through the Condensation Spirit Realm, I'll take care of him. I'm just afraid that my reputation will bring trouble to Fang

Residence.”

“It won't. Your talent will only prove the extraordinary nature of the Fang Family's bloodline. Other sects will try to win over the Fang Family. I've already arranged for Fang Family Disciples to join the other Eight Great Sects. With that, at least the Nine Great Sects won't act against the Fang Family. At most, some of the noble families might take issue.”

Zhou Xue's words made some sense to Fang Wang.

For the sects, the noble families did not pose a threat to them, their mechanisms being different. Plus, noble families could provide them with talented individuals.

“But back to the point, how did Zhao Zhen and Lu Yuanjun find out I am the Heaven Yuan Spirit Treasure?” Fang Wang asked, puzzled.

Zhou Xue chuckled lightly, “They probably just wanted to burn you in your own fire. Your growth rate is, after all, astonishing, claiming you are the Heaven Yuan Spirit Treasure is sure to be believed by some. Little do they know, they accidentally hit the mark, although describing your treasure as the Heaven Yuan Spirit Treasure is quite an understatement.”

Fang Wang raised an eyebrow and asked, “What do you mean? Is there a higher grade above Heaven Yuan?”

Zhou Xue replied with a question of her own, “Alright, was there anything else you wanted to ask me?”

Fang Wang pouted but changed the subject, saying, “I'm preparing to mold my third treasure. Do you think I should do it at Great Abyss Gate or find another place?”

Not only the Main Meridian of Great Abyss Gate had Heavenly Dao Spirit Stones but no matter where he chose, it would attract the attention of his sect, so he hesitated.

Zhou Xue raised her right hand and opened a storage bag on the table—the jade flew out and landed in Fang Wang's hand, revealing itself as a Guide Jade.

“This is a Spirit Molding Ground I've selected for you in advance. It's best you assume a false identity when you perform the spiritual refinement there. When you successfully refine your treasure at that place, you'll receive an unexpected gift,” Zhou Xue said suggestively.

Seeing Zhou Xue not surprised by his intention to create a third treasure, he was secretly disappointed.

Didn't get to show off this time.

Fang Wang took the Guide Jade and placed it in his own storage bag, teasingly saying, “All this mystery, it's not going to be the same trap set by the Southern Executioner Heavenly King Cao Ran, is it?”

Hearing the name Cao Ran, Zhou Xue couldn't help but glare at him and huffed, “Back then, I indeed underestimated you, but this time it is not my doing. The place is occupied by a master, so you must act cautiously. If successful, the benefits will far exceed your imagination.”

Being described as a master by Zhou Xue piqued Fang Wang's interest.

“Alright, it's time to pass on the technique. Tell me, what do you wish to pass on to me?” Fang Wang asked eagerly.

Zhou Xue raised her right hand, showing three fingers, “I have three Transformation Techniques that could save your life or allow you to infiltrate enemy territories. The first is the Sparrow Technique, which allows you to transform into a sparrow. It consumes a lot of Spiritual Power and isn't very fast, but it's the easiest to conceal.”

“The second is the White Crane Technique, which allows you to turn into a white crane. It has a smaller consumption and the speed of flight is fast.”

“The third is the Black Hawk Technique, allowing you to become a black hawk. The consumption is moderate amongst the three, but the speed is the fastest.”

Transformation Techniques!

Fang Wang's eyes lit up, and he asked, “Can I learn all of them?”

Zhou Xue shook her head and said, “This technique has already possessed divine skills, and in the Mortal Realm, divine skills should not exist. Each Transformation Technique will leave a different mark on your Profound Heart, and they repel each other.”

Upon hearing this, Fang Wang fell into hesitation.

Since it was a Transformation Technique, as long as he hid it well normally and transformed at critical moments, it would be very difficult for enemies to detect it, making the transformed physique's size less important.

So, choose the fastest one!

The higher the realm, the stronger the spiritual sense of the enemies faced. Even as small as a sparrow, it would be hard to escape the pursuit of spiritual sense; thus, naturally, the faster, the better.

“I will learn the Black Hawk Technique,” Fang Wang said earnestly.

Zhou Xue didn't waste any words and immediately commenced teaching the incantations of the Black Hawk Technique.

Fang Wang sighed inwardly. Damn it, having just completed a ten-year retreat, it was time to start again.

But how could he refuse a supreme skill that was handed to him on a silver platter?

Transformation Techniques embodied the art of channeling energy into acupuncture points. By activating different points, one can achieve physical transformation. Moreover, one must also comprehend and blend with the natural world, so that the transformed body is not rejected by the Earth's energies.

After Zhou Xue finished speaking, Fang Wang inevitably entered the Heavenly Palace.

Zhou Xue, as always, remained silently observant of Fang Wang after finishing her explanation, curious to see his reaction.

After a brief moment of absent-mindedness, Fang Wang took a deep breath and remarked, “The art of Transformation truly is profound and inscrutable.”

Zhou Xue's lips curled up as she said, “To reach minor accomplishment, it will take about one or two decades; Great Completion might require fifty years. When you reach the pinnacle, you will not need to perform any incantations; with a mere thought, you'll be able to transform into a black hawk, and even your aura will be just like that of an ordinary black hawk.”

“Indeed, I can sense the difficulty.”

Fang Wang sighed, Damn it, a single Transformation Technique took ninety-four years to train.

Fortunately, with Great Perfection of the Black Hawk Technique, he could instantly transform into a black hawk without any preparation, and there would be no slightest leakage of Spiritual Power after the transformation.

He did not reveal that he had already mastered the Black Hawk Technique; it was always good to keep some cards close to the chest.

Next, Fang Wang inquired about her experiences over the years.

Zhou Xue selectively shared her adventures, revealing that she had even left the Grand Qi Dynasty and traveled to the Northern Territory, which astonished Fang Wang with her propensity for traveling far and wide.

An hour later, once he stepped out of Zhou Xue's cave abode and the mountain gate had closed behind him, Fang Wang flew towards the Main Meridian.

With Xiao Zi still asleep in his arms, Fang Wang was organizing his thoughts.

The ninety-four-year cultivation of the Black Hawk Technique meant that he had to prepare anew his words for meeting with Guang Qiuxian.

Soon after, he arrived at the Main Meridian's peak and landed in front of Shiyuan Hall.

The disciples sweeping the plaza below merely glanced up at him and thought no more of it; only one seemed to think of something, looked up again, widened his eyes, and joyfully exclaimed, “Brother Fang Wang!”

Those cleaning here weren't actually doing it for the sake of cleanliness; after all, Cultivators possessed Spells, and those assigned to sweeping were often being punished. Being allowed to clean here, they were at the very least at the level of sword-carrying disciples.

Fang Wang glanced over and thought the person looked somewhat familiar, but before he could ponder further, he saw the doors of Shiyuan Hall open and immediately strode in.

The disciple who recognized Fang Wang's identity laughed proudly and said, “Did you see that? Brother Fang just glanced at me. I've told you, Brother Fang Wang is very aloof in the sect, and there are few disciples he can actually talk to, but luckily I, Zhou Bo, am one of them. Do you want to know the hobbies that Brother Fang Wang keeps secret from others?”

The surrounding disciples looked at him. Although skeptical, they were still eager to hear what he had to say.

Meanwhile.

Fang Wang walked into Shiyuan Hall and approached Guang Qiuxian.

Sitting on a meditation cushion, Guang Qiuxian wore an amused smile as he watched Fang Wang approach and perform the proper formalities. He then took the initiative to ask, “How has your cultivation been these years?”

Fang Wang nodded and replied, “Quite good. Thanks to the Sect Leader and my master's care, I have been able to cultivate in peace.”

“And what realm have you reached now?”

“The Profound Heart Realm.'

“Yes, no… what? The Profound Heart Realm!” Guang Qiuxian's eyes widened in shock, interrupting his previous composure.

Fang Wang's strength couldn't be measured by realms alone, so revealing his true realm wasn't an issue, and it could also earn him more approval from Guang Qiuxian.

Fang Wang nodded, and upon seeing this, Guang Qiuxian tried to compose himself and exclaimed, “Good! Good! Good!”

“Fang Wang, you have truly exceeded my expectations. I originally thought that reaching the Profound Heart Realm by the age of forty would have been amazing, since you only started on the path of Cultivation at sixteen. But now, let's see… you're only about thirty years old, right?” The more Guang Qiuxian looked at Fang Wang, the more satisfied he became.

Fang Wang smiled and said, “Thank you for the Sect Leader's great kindness, for imparting Spells to me and providing Spiritual Energy, without which I wouldn't have made it this far.”

Guang Qiuxian replied with a smile, “It's as it should be. Actually, I have something to tell you.. Do you know that the rank of your Spirit Treasure has been exposed?”
