I Fabricated the Techniques, but My Disciple Really Mastered Them?
Chapter 819: The Person in the Stone Cottage (2)Border Wilderness Wasteland, still peculiar, the Spiritual Energy although not scarce, was violent in nature, devoid of the Domain Spirit Spark.
Yet occasionally, Great Wilderness Warriors would come here to cultivate, experiencing the fierce scouring of Spiritual Energy.
Taicang Martial Arts without the Domain Spirit Spark cannot be practiced, but Great Wilderness Martial Arts do not require it.
In the Border Wilderness of the Northern Barbarians, a dominant leader emerged, leading a vast army to invade the bygone lands of Qi Country and Wu Country, intending to unify the Border Wilderness.
The people of the Northern Barbarians, living in the bitterly cold Border Wilderness, were oblivious to the changes in the wilderness and ignorant of the emergence of Martial Arts. After a fierce internal chaos, unity was restored and the strongest leader in a millennium emerged from the Northern Barbarian royal court.
Updated by ℕ○vG○.c○Having accumulated enough strength, they finally embarked on a campaign to conquer the world.
When Emperor Qi and The Emperor of Wu learned of this, they were thrilled, personally took action, and with just the two of them, steamrolled the Northern Barbarian army and captured their formidable leader alive.
All Northern Barbarians’ hearts collapsed, originally believing they could wipe out Qi Country and Wu Country in one fell swoop, seizing the rich lands, only to be crushed by two individuals!
The power they exhibited was like that of a Heavenly God!
Their worshiped Northern Barbarian true god, in comparison, seemed like an ant!The Northern Barbarian leader was stunned; a weaker will would have gone mad from the shock!
After this incident, the Northern Barbarians changed, they began to throw in their lot with the two emperors of the Great Wilderness, becoming its subjects, and the Northern Barbarian leader was even more decisive, kneeling down to accept them as his masters.
“Northern Barbarians, with robust physiques, capable of enduring hardship, are suitable for practicing the Great Wilderness Physical Body Martial Arts!”
Thus, some exceptionally talented Northern Barbarian prodigies were taught the Great Sun Golden Bell Shield and began practicing Great Wilderness Martial Arts.
Updated by N○vG○.c○The former Inner Realm had long been forgotten, to the extent that the younger generation did not even know that the Great Wilderness was once known as the Inner Realm.
Older generation Martial Artists seldom mentioned the Inner Realm, only in the historical texts of the Martial Arts Academies was there a record of the Inner Realm’s history before the Great Wilderness era.
Martial Artists who practiced Inner Realm Martial Arts were ultimately too numerous, not all could smoothly transition to practicing Great Wilderness Martial Arts, and thus among the older generation Martial Artists, the majority still practiced Inner Realm Martial Arts.
However, these Martial Artists who practiced Martial Arts other than those of the Great Wilderness, had also integrated into the Great Wilderness, no longer referring to themselves as Martial Artists of the Inner Realm, but rather took pride in being Great Wilderness Warriors.
The Border Wilderness Wasteland, Wu Country Royal Palace.
This place had become one of the residences of The Emperor of Wu, one of the two emperors of the Great Wilderness, and every year The Emperor of Wu would reside here for a period.
But the vast royal palace was mostly cold and deserted, only becoming lively during the times of The Emperor of Wu’s return.
Usually, it was only the former eunuchs who would clean the palace.
These eunuchs, those who remained, mostly lacked Martial Arts talent and could not pursue Martial Arts, so they could only spend the rest of their lives here.
Of course, these eunuchs did practice cultivation, it was just that their strength was poor, but it was enough to sustain them with ample vigor to clean the palace and do various chores.
When The Emperor of Wu returned, he would even bestow some Pills upon them.
The Great Wilderness had already abolished the eunuch system, and the eunuchs serving Emperor Qi and The Emperor of Wu were all from the very first batch; there were no new eunuchs.
Deep within the palace, that one palace could only be entered by The Emperor of Wu.
In the cold and deserted palace, within the small stone house inside, suddenly arose a muttering voice, “What’s going on, why is it feeling more and more wrong? This Spiritual Energy and Domain Spirit Spark, the amplification seems a bit too fast.
“And that Emperor Wu brat, he’s actually become a Martial Artist! Just what kind of Martial Arts is he practicing, and why does it differ from what I know?
“Could it be, has Taicang fallen? Impossible, if it had fallen, how come I haven’t noticed?”
This voice was filled with doubts and uncertainty.
If The Emperor of Wu were here, he would have recognized the voice as the long-gone mysterious voice.
“Strange, the next time that Emperor Wu kid comes, should I probe him a little? No, I can’t, I’m pretending to be dead right now, I can’t expose myself.
“Right, I can’t expose myself. There are too many con artists out there, all con artists, who tricked me into coming here, and trapped me here.
“I can’t be fooled again, I mustn’t be curious again, I must not be deceived again, I trust no one, including Taicang!
“Yes, including Taicang I do not trust, he actually deceived me, locked me up here, then went off to die!”
The muttering voice grew increasingly agitated, but also tinged with sadness.
“How long has it been? I can’t remember anymore, just a very, very long time, I’ve slept and slept, and Taicang still hasn’t returned, he really is dead.
“Woo-hoo, even he is dead, this is too terrifying. Can this Domain continue to exist? What if it falls, what if someone discovers me, then what?
“Forget it, forget it, better to sleep it off, pretend nothing happened.
“Right, just like that, sleep it off as if nothing happened, woo-hoo… Taicang must have died a terrible death, serves him right for locking me up here. If I had helped him, even if he died, at least a bone could have remained!”
Whispers echoed throughout the small stone hut.
“Sleep, sleep, a good sleep will do, no curiosity allowed. The Emperor of Wu, that kid, definitely came to pique my curiosity on purpose, hmph, I won’t be fooled!”
The voice slowly fell into silence.
Li Xuan returned to the Great Wilderness and journeyed through it, observing the young people striving in their Skin Refinement, Bone Refinement, and Viscera Refinement, diligently practicing Martial Arts—a flourishing scene indeed.
“Not bad. After a hundred, a thousand years, the strength of the Great Wilderness Martial Arts Realm will soar.”
Without alerting anyone, Li Xuan stepped upon the clouds and made his way to the Border Wilderness.
“Let the Border Wilderness remain as it is, the absence of Domain Spirit Spark isn’t a bad thing.”
He arrived outside the Wu Country Royal Palace.
Li Xuan looked up at the Firmament, and with his strength and the Eye of the Heavenly Dao, he instantly noticed something peculiar.
“A seal? Doesn’t quite seem like it, looks more like an existence bound by the Domain itself, quite special.”
Had he not penetrated the mysteries of the Taicang Domain, possessed the Eye of the Heavenly Dao, and reached the Domain Realm, he might have never spotted this anomaly.
“Even the Supreme Experts, detached from the Domain, wouldn’t be able to detect it.”
Too veiled!
Moreover, this kind of method was not something an ordinary expert could accomplish.
The Master of the Taicang Domain!
This was the handiwork of the Master of the Taicang Domain, only the Master of Taicang could achieve this step.
“What kind of expert is trapped here? Even the Master of the Taicang Domain can’t deal with them?”
Li Xuan was full of astonishment.
Furthermore, the arrangement was so secretive, it seemed as though they feared someone would discover and rescue the person trapped inside.
His gaze turned to where the little stone hut stood.
As if piercing through all barriers, he vaguely saw beneath the small stone hut, deep down countless leagues, a faintly swirling purplish glow.
“This stone hut…”
Li Xuan’s eyebrows rose slightly; the stone hut was ordinary yet extraordinary, linked to the entire arrangement and also hiding one link of the trapped existence.
“Without entering the hut, it seems impossible to fully understand it.”
Li Xuan pondered.
He only saw a wisp of faint purple light, but could not see through it—what exactly lay within that purple radiance?
“With my current strength, since the other party is bound, even if they are strong, they can’t fully exert their power, so there’s no need to fear any danger.”
Li Xuan stepped toward the palace.
A mysterious aura appeared at this moment, giving him an unfathomable appearance, enough to intimidate the imprisoned individual.
Holding the Jade Ruyi in hand, his steps were carefree and revealed the demeanor of a superior being.
He pushed open the palace doors and stepped inside.
The palace doors closed behind him.
Calm and unhurried, he entered the little stone hut, which looked totally ordinary, devoid of any peculiar features.
Li Xuan took out a chair and sat down with ease.
He brewed a pot of Spiritual Tea, pouring two cups.
“Little friend, come up and have some tea.”
Li Xuan’s smile was warm.
As an ancient expert, naturally, he had to maintain the image of one; no matter how strong the other party was, in his presence, they’d seem insignificant!
The other party couldn’t see through his strength and would only find him unfathomable.
In that case, wasn’t calling the other party “little friend” quite appropriate?
With a smile on his face like a benevolent elder, Li Xuan said, “Little friend, no need to hide, I’ve seen you. Come have some tea and we can chat, just to talk about trivial matters of life.”
