“What do you think this Wang brother means?” Xiao Fan looked at Dan Qingtian with wide eyes, both staring at the newly delivered “Martial Spirit Body.”
Xiao Fan might not be able to discern its value, but Dan Qingtian could, and he recognized that it was definitely one of the most top-notch Secret Techniques.
“Have you ever considered that you might be the one destined to face the tribulation?”
At this moment, Dan Qingtian wasn’t hiding anything, standing openly, which is why he didn’t use Sound Transmission.
“How could that be possible, do you think I look the part?” Xiao Fan said with some speechlessness.
Dan Qingtian scrutinized Xiao Fan seriously, “Indeed, you don’t quite fit the bill. Wang Mu fits the profile much better, first with the ‘Devotion Technique’ and now with the ‘Martial Spirit Body.’ For such a small rural place to have these kinds of items, it’s definitely the sign of the destined one.”
“Although I don’t understand why he would give these things to you.”
“Maybe… he feels that he lacks the ability to avenge the person who gave him the Secret Technique, so he wants me to do it, given that it is the Green Dragon Association,” Xiao Fan said uncertainly.
“That’s quite possible, but now that you’ve accepted his Secret Technique, you really do have to avenge the Green Dragon Association,” said Dan Qingtian.
“Of course, the Green Dragon Association here in our Southern Liang State is indeed a big Sect, and should not be underestimated with a Fifth Grade Spirit Summoner presiding. But as long as I keep getting stronger, the Green Dragon Association is not impossible to eradicate,” Xiao Fan said confidently, especially after Qin Muye had given him the “Devotion Technique” and “Martial Spirit Body.”
With the various medicine dishes and Medicine Pills given by Dan Qingtian’s medical skills, his progress was naturally leaps and bounds. By selling Medicine Pills, he also formed a sufficient financial cycle, without worrying about running out of money.
It’s just that this business couldn’t be done openly, otherwise it might lead to big trouble.
After all, every force wants to control a person with Skills, and they wouldn’t allow him to get stronger, as that would mean escaping their control.
If he were from a great family, he might not be treated this way, but with Xiao Fan’s status, once exposed, he would definitely end up imprisoned.
A discarded bastard of a great family, who would care?
“In a few more days, the ‘Devotion Technique’ should be able to elevate me to General Level. By then, once I enter Second Grade, I’ll take the opportunity. Although I no longer need it, if combined with my unique Medicine Pills, you might be able to advance directly to Third Grade,” Dan Qingtian pondered and said.
“Okay, but I wonder what it is that you’re so fixated on,” Xiao Fan said nonchalantly, as he would never find too many resources excessive.
“It’s an Inheritance Advancement Method, limited to Heroic Spirits with Soldier Level potential. Once used, it can advance my potential to General Level, followed by plenty of resources and a Heavenly Order. This Heavenly Order can grant the status of a True Disciple of Sky Tower upon entering the ancient Underground Relics,” said Dan Qingtian.
“As long as you acquire the Cultivation Techniques and Secret Techniques of Sky Tower, becoming a Ninth Grade Spirit Summoner will not be a problem.”
Dan Qingtian did not conceal the matter and directly spoke about the contents.
“How do you know about it so clearly? It wouldn’t happen to be the Relic left by someone you knew, would it?” Xiao Fan asked curiously.
“No, it was left by myself. Initially, it was intended as a fallback, but then I became a Heroic Spirit,” Dan Qingtian said after a brief silence.
“It’s been such a long time, are you sure the Relic is still there?” Xiao Fan knew that Dan Qingtian dated back at least three thousand six hundred years.
“Don’t worry, I have it figured out. After all, I was once someone who entered the Heaven Pavilion, with my Relic being fashioned after it, able to hold up for at least ten thousand years,” Dan Qingtian said with confidence.
Since Dan Qingtian was confident, Xiao Fan didn’t mind either. After acquiring the “Devotion Technique,” he didn’t have much desire for the Advancement Method as it might help him break through from Second Grade to Third Grade, but that was about it.
In fact, he was already quite satisfied with his current situation, especially after the addition of “Martial Spirit Body.” Practically speaking, once he reached Fourth Grade, there would be no one in Southern Liang State who could be his match.
He didn’t think too much about progressing further, as he had a clear understanding of his own limits. Even with the powerful assistance of a Heroic Spirit like Dan Qingtian to help him grow, he knew his constraints.
“What is this Sky Tower? From what you’ve said, Elder Dan, it seems to have an extraordinary origin,” Xiao Fan’s attention was drawn to the Sky Tower.
“I don’t know the origin of the Sky Tower, except that it opens once every ten years. I’ve calculated the time, and it will open by the middle of this year. You must strengthen your power as soon as possible, otherwise even if you have the Heavenly Order, you won’t be able to enter the Sky Tower. When that time comes, you’ll have to wait another ten years, which certainly isn’t good for you,”
“Because the Spirit Tribulation won’t wait ten years. If you miss the Sky Tower, I’m afraid you might end up like me, dead and your path extinguished, or even become a Heroic Spirit of the lowest potential.”
With that, Dan Qingtian could only say so much.
He didn’t know exactly when the Spirit Tribulation would return, but he knew one thing for sure: if Xiao Fan didn’t rapidly grow stronger with the cultivation techniques and secret techniques from the Sky Tower, there was absolutely no way to survive the Spirit Tribulation.
“Spirit Tribulation? This apocalyptic calamity is actually periodic, occurring every three thousand six hundred years, but why are there only the name and time, no detailed records at all?”
Qin Muye glanced at the reports sent back by the Spirit Monster spies and was somewhat speechless.
“And the Sky Tower, a mysterious ‘dumpling’, oh, relic, which is said to inherit powerful cultivation techniques and secret techniques within. But I have a small question, this thing has existed for god knows how many years, at least measured in tens of thousands, why don’t the techniques and secrets within it become outdated?”
It’s not the case that the older it is, the more powerful it becomes. It’s not possible that after developing for so many years, there’s not only no progress but regression. If technological progress relied on archaeology, that would be quite sad.
The Gendaya Civilization was like that indeed, but it didn’t lack progress. It had to cut its own technology out of necessity to survive.
But this instance world isn’t like that, because both cultivation techniques and secret techniques are actually continuously developing, there’s been no phenomena of technological stagnation, maybe it’s slower, but the whole world definitely isn’t dead water.
So this is quite problematic. How can the Sky Tower, an antiquity from tens of thousands of years ago, crush the modern era in terms of cultivation techniques and secret techniques?
“So, the most precious thing in the Underground Relics of Qingsong Village isn’t the Inheritance Advancement Method, but this Heavenly Order?”
Qin Muye nonchalantly fished out the Heavenly Order from the Relic. What would happen if he sent this thing over to the protagonist?
His accumulated chance points had now reached 4. It wasn’t a matter of doubling but a normal increase.
Because in the judgment of the temporary skill ‘Positive Supporting Character’, that “Martial Spirit Body” was worth 2 points of chance accumulation. Adding that to the original 2 points, so it became a cumulative 4 points.
The increase in chance accumulation was mainly determined by his cause and effect relationship with the protagonist and the latter’s chance amplification, not a fixed increase.
“I’ll hold onto this thing for now and wait for an appropriate time to send it over. By then, directly skipping Xiao Fan’s affairs, I can also accumulate chance directly.”
Qin Muye took a look at the Heavenly Order. There was nothing special about it; it was just made of a special metal. If there is something special to say, it would be that the metal seemed to be synthetic and that the combination ratio of the metal’s synthesis acted as a sort of cypher, presumably the key mentioned in the reports for becoming a True Disciple of the Sky Tower.
“But where is the Sky Tower? Why can’t I sense it,” pondered Qin Muye, who, as a rank 8, had a quite formidable perception, yet he couldn’t detect where the so-called Sky Tower was.
Qin Muye suspected that the Sky Tower might not be on the surface of this world but at some encrypted location; otherwise, it was impossible for him to not find it.
With his strength, even if he couldn’t find it, there should at least be some traces.
“So could it be within the Heroic Spirit Land?”
The Heroic Spirit Land is where the Heroic Spirits reside, the place Qin Muye tracked into during the Spirit Summoning Ceremony. If there is any place that’s most special, it’s this area, and precisely because a large number of Heroic Spirits converge there, the cultivation techniques and secret techniques in the Sky Tower could remain cutting-edge.
With a large number of Heroic Spirits inside optimizing and innovating, it would be inexplicable otherwise; an ancient relic untouched for tens of thousands of years still at the forefront of the times is not scientific.
“So If I get into the Sky Tower, might I be able to sneak into the Heroic Spirit Land?” Qin Muye didn’t care much about the Sky Tower itself; he was more interested in entering the Heroic Spirit Land.
