I Fabricated the Techniques, but My Disciple Really Mastered Them?

Chapter 896: The Stone Jar and Bamboo Slips, Xu Sets out to Subdue Xiang Long

If the Sea Spirit Tribe’s Great Elder were to hide the truth and try to shift the blame, Xu Yan’s goodwill towards the Sea Spirit Tribe would vanish. However, since the Great Elder spoke frankly about the intricacies involved, Xu Yan didn’t mind taking on this hot potato.

For the Sea Spirit Tribe, these two garments might bring danger, but for Xu Yan, they were nothing of consequence.

No matter who was coveting them or how powerful they were, Xu Yan didn’t care.

Since it pleased him, why wouldn’t he accept it?

“For me, it’s no trouble, so I’ll take it.”

Xu Yan put the jade box away.

“Just a reminder, Friend Xu, those who covet this object are likely already at the Divine Venerate Realm.”

The Sea Spirit Tribe’s Great Elder solemnly said.

“The Divine Venerate Realm? No problem!”

Xu Yan smiled, unfazed.

“Since you have such confidence, little old me can rest assured.”

The Sea Spirit Tribe’s Great Elder sighed in relief.

Xu Yan continued to wander through the treasure trove, looking for treasures that caught his eye.

After picking and choosing some treasures, Xu Yan considered that everyone he’d wanted to give gifts to had already been chosen, and there was nothing particularly appealing left. He was about to leave.

But the Sea Spirit Tribe’s Great Elder spoke up: “Friend Xu, why not take a look at those ancient relics? They are said to be from extremely ancient times.”

“What is special about these ancient relics?”

Xu Yan asked curiously.

“I can’t really say!”

The Sea Spirit Tribe’s Great Elder shook his head and led Xu Yan to a corner of the treasury, where he rhythmically tapped on the wall. An entrance instantly appeared on the floor of the corner.

“Friend Xu, follow me!”

The Sea Spirit Tribe’s Great Elder entered the underground passage.

Xu Yan raised an eyebrow. This underground treasure room seemed so secretive that ordinary experts probably wouldn’t be able to find it.

Following the Sea Spirit Tribe’s Great Elder into the underground passage, they came to a treasure room just a few yards across.

The moment he stepped into the treasure room, he sensed an ancient atmosphere.

He even felt a sense of time’s sedimentation.

There weren’t many ancient relics in the treasure room.

Only a dozen or so, and the most eye-catching was a bead emitting a shimmering, azure glow.

Apart from that, the other objects appeared very old yet exuded a sense of time’s sedimentation.

In the entire secret treasure chamber, the most noticeable item was undoubtedly this azure bead. However, Xu Yan’s gaze wasn’t fixed on the bead but on another object.

It was a stone jar, but not an ordinary one. The mottled, aged jar, besides the feeling of time’s sedimentation, seemed plain at first glance.

However, Xu Yan saw that the stone jar was imbued with a subtle aura that sealed the jar’s contents, preventing them from decaying with time.

The Sea Spirit Tribe’s Great Elder was startled. He had anticipated that Xu Yan would first inspect the azure bead since it seemed the most extraordinary among these relics.

Unexpectedly, Xu Yan’s immediate focus was on a stone jar.

“This stone jar is rather peculiar. I’ve tried to open it to see what’s inside, but I have never been able to. Moreover, with my power, I couldn’t damage the jar…”

The Sea Spirit Tribe’s Great Elder said.

“What is the origin of this stone jar?”

Xu Yan asked with curiosity.

“It is said to have been cherished by our tribe’s Ancient Emperor, but the specifics are unknown. However, some of our tribe’s ancient texts mention in just a few words that this stone jar was gifted to our Ancient Emperor by a great figure…”

The Sea Spirit Tribe’s Great Elder recalled and said.

He then added: “Given that our tribe once belonged to the True Dragon Lineage, it’s speculated that it might be related to a True Dragon.”

Xu Yan picked up the stone jar and said: “I’ll take this item.”

“If Friend Xu likes it, that’s great!”

The Sea Spirit Tribe’s Great Elder said happily.

The biggest fear was that Xu Yan wouldn’t like it. As long as Xu Yan accepted a treasure from the Sea Spirit Tribe, there would be some affinity and connection between them.

In the future, if the Sea Spirit Tribe ever faced a great calamity, Xu Yan, recalling this connection, might lend a hand.

Xu Yan put the stone jar away. Although he couldn’t see the contents clearly, he had some guesses and figured it would be just right to give to his master.

Then, Xu Yan looked at the azure bead.

The Sea Spirit Tribe’s Great Elder introduced: “This item is called the Azure Sea Bead. Legend has it that it was also left by our tribe’s Ancient Emperor. Its specific use is unknown to me, but it undoubtedly hides some profound mysteries.”

Xu Yan’s heart couldn’t help but stir upon hearing this. The Azure Sea Bead?

That giant turtle was named the Azure Sea Turtle. Could this bead and the Azure Sea Turtle come from the same place?

The Azure Sea?

Was there a place in this Domain called the Azure Sea?

But, the Azure Sea Turtle was an unearthly creature, not a strong being from this land.

“Could it be that the Azure Sea is beyond this Domain?”

Xu Yan pondered curiously.

“Great Elder, do you know if there is a place called the Azure Sea in this Domain?”

The Sea Spirit Tribe’s Great Elder shook his head and said: “Never heard of it. The sea in this Domain has always been called the Azure Sea. The current Divine Realm’s Azure Sea Sphere and the Spiritual Realm’s Azure Sea are parts of the vast Azure Sea of this Domain.

“The transformations of the Domain have separated it into its current state. It is said that in ancient times, the Azure Sea was vast, far beyond what the Azure Sea Sphere is now.”

Xu Yan nodded, raised his hand, and the Azure Sea Bead fell into his grasp. Since it was related to the Sea Spirit Tribe’s Ancient Emperor, he decided to keep it and give it to his master.

After putting away the Azure Sea Bead, Xu Yan continued to examine the other ancient relics.

The other ancient relics were relatively ordinary. Though they had some mysterious aspects, they didn’t particularly move Xu Yan.
