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

Chapter 897: The Stone Jar and Bamboo Slips, Xu Sets out to Subdue Xiang Long

Ever since he had obtained the Prime Tortoise Carapace, Xu Yan’s perspective had soared, and ordinary treasures no longer caught his eye.

Moreover, having advanced to such a level in strength, ordinary treasures no longer had any significant effect on him.

“Eh, what is this?”

Suddenly, Xu Yan discovered among these ancient relics one particular item, a bamboo slip, which was not made of any ordinary bamboo and seemed to bear some resemblance to the Mystic Bamboo that he held in his hands.

It seemed to be of the same type, the only difference being that the bamboo used for this bamboo slip was of a much higher grade than the bamboo in his possession.

The Great Elder of the Sea Spirit Tribe recalled for a moment and said, “This bamboo slip, according to the fragmented records left by a once-powerful member of our tribe, contains various strange and extraordinary events, or some secret accounts, but does not discuss any cultivation techniques or secret techniques.”

Xu Yan picked up the bamboo slip, and beneath the Minor Heavenly Eye, he saw a layer of hazy light obscuring the content of the slip. However, he could still vaguely make out some characters.

“The person who wrote this bamboo slip must have been extremely powerful, as my current strength, even with the Minor Heavenly Eye, cannot penetrate the content of the bamboo slip.”

Xu Yan couldn’t help but be astonished.

“This bamboo slip seems to possess a repelling force. After our tribe’s Supreme Expert perished, no one has been able to see what is contained within.

“Moreover, this bamboo slip is a Supreme Treasure in itself. It is said to have been made from a piece of an extraordinary Mystic Bamboo, whose hollow parts are said to be vast, much like the Domain itself.”

The Great Elder of the Sea Spirit Tribe continued to explain.

Xu Yan nodded, almost certain that the bamboo used for the slip was of the same kind as the Mystic Bamboo he held.

“It would be an excellent gift for my master—the strange and extraordinary events contained within it could serve as entertainment.”

Thinking this, Xu Yan put away the bamboo slip.

“That’s it, I’ll take these three items.”

After taking the bamboo slip, Xu Yan said with a smile.

“Friend Xu, won’t you look at the others?”

The Great Elder of the Sea Spirit Tribe was taken aback.

He had prepared himself for Xu Yan to sweep all the ancient objects away.

“No need!”

Xu Yan turned and walked towards the exit.

“Today I accept three ancient objects from your Sea Spirit Tribe. In the future, if it’s within my power, I can assist your tribe up to three times!”

Xu Yan said gravely.

“Many thanks, Young Master Xu!”

The Great Elder of the Sea Spirit Tribe bowed joyfully in gratitude.

“That’s enough, your Sea Spirit Tribe still has a backer.”

Xu Yan smiled.

Cai Ling’er of the Sea Spirit Tribe, with the Sea Spirit Emperor’s Bloodline, was now following his master. If the Sea Spirit Tribe were in trouble, how could she ignore it?

Being the maid of his master, anyone who contemplated targeting her would have to weigh the consequences of whether they could withstand a slap from his master.

“Yes, yes!”

The Great Elder of the Sea Spirit Tribe was overjoyed, thinking the backer Xu Yan referred to was Xu Yan himself.

Upon leaving the Sea Spirit Palace, the Great Elder of the Sea Spirit Tribe personally escorted Xu Yan back to Yuntian Island.

At that moment, Yuntian Island was already astir.

News of the True Dragon calamity had reached the island.

Xie Lingfeng looked at his father in shock, “Father, a True Dragon, to think there’s actually a True Dragon!”

“The legendary True Dragon has appeared in the Divine Realm, which is not good news for the Azure Sea Sphere!” exclaimed Xie Tianheng.

In the great seas of the Divine Realm, only the Azure Sea Sphere awaited the True Dragon’s eventual arrival to rule over the Azure Sea.

The True Dragon causing the uproar was said to have lost its sanity, becoming highly aggressive and slaughtering martial artists above Immortal Heavenly Venerable indiscriminately.

Those martial artists below the Truth Refinement Realm caught in its wake also suffered heavy casualties!

The might of the True Dragon was bound to sweep across the Divine Realm.

“Brother Xu is about to leave the Azure Sea Sphere!”

Xie Lingfeng said with a sigh.

“Why?”

Xie Tianheng was puzzled but quickly understood, “Indeed, with Xu Yan’s monstrous talents, how could he not go and witness the True Dragon? After all, it is a legendary being.”

He then said with a regretful tone, “If only my strength wasn’t so inadequate, I wouldn’t be able to resist going to watch it either. It’s a True Dragon, after all!”

However, Xie Lingfeng wryly said, “Brother Xu isn’t going to simply watch.”

He knew that Xu Yan possessed the Subduing Dragon Palm, a technique named for the very purpose of subduing dragons. Now that a True Dragon had appeared and was wreaking havoc, how could Xu Yan resist taking action?

Hearing this, Xie Tianheng nodded, “That’s true. With Xu Yan’s strength, he definitely wants to spar with the True Dragon. Even if he can’t defeat it, with the Elders’ Jade Talisman, he won’t be in danger.”

Xie Lingfeng chuckled, knowing well that Xu Yan wasn’t going to spar but to subdue the True Dragon!

With the news of the True Dragon, Yuntian Island was in uproar, with many people showing worried expressions. The True Dragon would inevitably one day descend upon the Azure Sea Sphere.

The Sea Spirit Tribe’s experts bore solemn expressions at this moment.

Once, they were True Spirits of the True Dragon Lineage, tasked with patrolling the vast seas; but as time passed, the current Sea Spirit Tribe had greatly weakened, a mere shadow of its former glory.

Moreover, they were now the overlords of the Azure Sea and certainly did not wish for a new master to suddenly emerge, turning them into mere followers.

Besides, this True Dragon had lost its sanity, becoming wildly aggressive.

“This matter is beyond our means to resolve; we can only hope that the Taihe Realm has a strategy to deal with it,” said the Yuntian Island Master in a deep voice.

“The only strategy, I fear, is to open the Heavenly Ladder,” worried the Second Elder of the Sea Spirit Tribe.

Once the Heavenly Ladder was opened, would those who had once coveted the treasures of the Sea Spirit Tribe seize the opportunity to descend upon the Divine Realm?

The Yuntian Island Master was silent; the opening of the Dao Domain Ladder was naturally good news for great realms with strong backgrounds, but not necessarily for those without such support.

Even the chance to ascend the ladder and break through one’s own cultivation limits was not guaranteed for everyone.

Many restrictions and secrets were involved in this process.

Xu Yan and the Great Elder of the Sea Spirit Tribe returned to Yuntian Island, and upon hearing about the True Dragon, the Great Elder’s face turned grave, hurrying to the grand hall of Yuntian Island.

“Brother Xie, I’ve come to say goodbye,” Xu Yan, upon returning to Xie Lingfeng’s residence, said with a smile.

“I had anticipated this,” Xie Lingfeng replied with a chuckle.

“The next time we meet, I will have certainly reached the Void-breaking Realm!” Xie Lingfeng added confidently.

“With Brother Xie’s talent, breaking into the Void-breaking Realm won’t take long,” Xu Yan nodded. Xie Lingfeng’s talent was not weak, and under Xu Yan’s guidance, he had grasped the key to breaking through to the Void-breaking Realm.

Moreover, with the Dan medicines left by Xu Yan and his connections, Xie Lingfeng’s cultivation speed was sure to be swift, especially now that he could access more cultivation resources on Yuntian Island.

“Does Brother Xu have confidence?” Xie Lingfeng asked, his expression serious.

Subduing Dragons!

Throughout history, such an event was unheard of; Xu Yan might be the first.

Of course, what happened in the more distant, unrecorded past was unclear, but at least in known history, there had been no tales of dragon subjugation.

“Based on the information I have, this is a young dragon, not too strong in strength. Although it easily overpowered the Immortal Heavenly Venerable, my Subduing Dragon Palm is, after all, for subduing dragons, so I should have some confidence,” Xu Yan said thoughtfully.

Xie Tianheng and Fu Yun were stunned by the sidelines.

Xu Yan was going to subdue a dragon?

“Then I will await Brother Xu’s successful subjugation of the dragon here on Yuntian Island!” Xie Lingfeng said solemnly.

“Good!” Xu Yan smiled and nodded his head.

After that, Xu Yan went to bid farewell to the Great Elder of the Sea Spirit Tribe and the Yuntian Island Master.

“Friend Xu, are you about to leave the Azure Sea Sphere?” asked the Yuntian Island Master and others with reluctance.

With Xu Yan around, the entire Azure Sea Sphere seemed to have a backbone; now that he was leaving, they suddenly felt uneasy.

“I have pressing matters and must take my leave for now,” said Xu Yan, nodding.

“If Friend Xu has any important matters, Yuntian Island wishes to offer whatever modest assistance we can to repay you for the grace shown to us,” the Yuntian Island Master sincerely offered.

“I’m afraid there is nothing you can do to assist me in this matter,” Xu Yan replied.

“Even though we are aware of our modest strength, in the Divine Realm, we are still among the strong. Ultimately, there must be something we can do to support Friend Xu, so please do not hesitate to ask!” the Yuntian Island Master said earnestly.

“Your kindness is deeply appreciated, but truly, there is nothing you can help with in this matter.”

“The Immortal Heavenly Venerable might be weak in Friend Xu’s eyes, yet in the Divine Realm, he is not to be underestimated. With so many Immortal Heavenly Venerables like us, even the Great Realms would not dare to slight us.

“In the entire Divine Realm, there are no more than two or three powerful individuals like Friend Xu. How could we not be of help? You don’t need to be polite; after all, even if we can only cheer you on, it will bolster your momentum!” the Yuntian Island Master said seriously.

The other experts of the Azure Sea Sphere nodded in agreement, indicating that even if they could only offer shouts of encouragement, the many Immortal Heavenly Venerables present could still boost Xu Yan’s morale!

Xu Yan bowed and said, “I am touched by your kindness, but I am going forth to subdue the dragon.”
