On the bed.
Tang San, who had been in a deep sleep, finally woke up as the sun climbed high in the sky.
"Young Master, you're finally awake."
The moment Tang San's eyes opened, Tailong's concerned voice reached his ears.
As the world in his eyes became clear, Tang San clutched his slightly throbbing head and asked Titan, who was standing beside him:
"What's going on? I clearly remember meditating and cultivating last night, how did I collapse?"
Titan looked at Tang San's questioning gaze and scratched his head as he replied:
"Young Master, I, I don't know either!"
"I only came in this morning after waking up to check on you because I didn't see you cultivating on the rooftop. When I came in, I found you collapsed on the bed, unconscious."
"Therefore, I thought, Young Master, perhaps you were overworked and fell asleep while cultivating."
This straightforward answer made Tang San fall into thought.
He hadn't really rested properly since his aunt's funeral.
Could it really be, as Tailong said, that his body was overworked and activated a self-protection mechanism?
...
Lin Clan Estate, main house hall.
On the sofa, Lin Rong casually flipped through the book in his hands, commenting on the slightly messy handwriting:
"Tang San's handwriting is not good. I don't expect him to be a calligraphy master as a professional assassin, but why can't he even manage basic neatness?"
Shi Nian, standing beside him, became even more certain of the guess in his heart, thinking to himself:
Indeed, Master can understand that scribbled, unfamiliar script.
Logically, this is the writing of the Tang Sect from another world. Since Master can understand it, could Master also be from that world?
There are such miraculous cultivation techniques in the other world, as well as those Hidden Weapons. They have their merits. Compared to them, our world is too backward in certain aspects.
Lin Rong quickly flipped through the Mysterious Heaven Treasure Record and closed it. He spoke to Shi Nian, who was lost in thought beside him:
"You completed the mission well. Take these cultivation methods and key points for the three great ultimate skills: Mysterious Heaven Skill, Purple Demon Eye, and Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track. One is an internal cultivation technique, one is an eye-refining method, and the other is a body-lightening technique. Cultivating them successfully will greatly benefit you."
Upon hearing this, Shi Nian saw over ten sheets of white paper float in the air. An entire bottle of ink was splattered onto the papers, and then, controlled by an unseen force, the ink transformed into text that he could understand.
"Thank you, Master." Shi Nian happily accepted the over ten sheets of white paper floating before him and quickly scanned through them.
He found that the content on the papers was a bit difficult to pronounce and quite obscure and hard to understand.
Fortunately, there were annotations and very detailed meridian diagrams of the entire body, pointing out all the meridians and some basic knowledge related to them.
These annotations and meridian diagrams gave him the confidence to successfully cultivate the Mysterious Heaven Skill and the Purple Demon Eye without anyone teaching him.
"If there's nothing else, this subordinate will take his leave."
After speaking, Shi Nian saw Lin Rong nod and then he hurried out of the hall.
After Shi Nian left, Lin Rong also reopened the book in his hands.
Under the interference of his mental power, the text of the entire book changed, quickly transforming from the script of another world into the script of the Douluo Continent world.
Thus, this treasure catalog, which recorded all the ultimate skills and rare anecdotes of the Tang Sect, was no longer an unreadable mystery to the people of this world, but a peerless secret manual that anyone who could read could understand.
The Six Ultimate Skills of the Tang Sect:
Internal Cultivation Method—Mysterious Heaven Skill; Hand Cultivation Method—Mysterious Jade Hand.
Eye Refinement Method—Purple Demon Eye; Body-Lightening Method—Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track.
Grappling Method—Crane Controlling Dragon Seizing; Hidden Weapon Method—Hundred Solutions for Hidden Weapons.
Among them.
The parts of the Purple Demon Eye related to absorbing the purple mist of the morning glow, the unique qi control techniques of Crane Controlling Dragon Seizing, and the Ghostly body-movement of Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track would be beneficial to him and he would cultivate them.
As for the remaining three ultimate skills.
The Mysterious Heaven Skill was inferior to the Marrow Cleansing Scripture, the Mysterious Jade Hand was of little practical use, and most of the techniques in the Hundred Solutions for Hidden Weapons required the power of the Mysterious Heaven Skill to be performed. Lin Rong had no need to cultivate them.
...
With the Mysterious Heaven Treasure Record in hand, the previously leisurely winter days became busy.
The Lin Clan's guard team and secret service team began to cultivate the four ultimate skills: Mysterious Heaven Skill, Purple Demon Eye, Crane Controlling Dragon Seizing, and Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track.
Due to talent and time constraints.
The Mysterious Heaven Skill and the Purple Demon Eye, which focused on cultivating Soul Power and mental power respectively, were designated as primary cultivation skills. Crane Controlling Dragon Seizing and Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track, which were auxiliary combat skills, were designated as secondary cultivation skills.
As for the Mysterious Jade Hand and the Hundred Solutions for Hidden Weapons, Lin Rong had them removed entirely.
The average talent of these guards and secret servicemen was ordinary. Cultivating the four primary and secondary ultimate skills was already somewhat strenuous for them; adding two more would be too much for them to handle.
As for the old housekeeper, after the young master handed him the six ultimate skills, he chose to cultivate all of them simultaneously.
The reason he made this choice was that each ultimate skill was a means to improve his strength. The stronger his own strength and the more methods he had, the more calmly he could deal with various unexpected situations and the better he could protect the young master's safety.
After seeing the old butler's choice, Lin Rong didn't find anything inappropriate.
Grandpa Yu's aptitude had already reached the peak of the current generation through the continuous enhancement of three Immortal Grade Medicinal Herbs and four top-grade Spirit Bones.
If Tang San's talent allowed him to cultivate six ultimate skills simultaneously, there was no reason Grandpa Yu couldn't.
For the other two families, in addition to the fixed Mysterious Heaven Skill and Purple Demon Eye, Lin Rong allowed them to choose any one of the remaining four ultimate skills to cultivate.
In response, Dugu Bo and Dugu Yan, grandfather and granddaughter, both chose the Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track, a movement technique ultimate skill.
The Dragon Snake Couple's family had a more diverse selection.
Meng Shu chose Crane Controlling Dragon Seizing, a grappling technique, while Chao Tianxiang chose Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track, a light body technique.
The couple's granddaughter, Meng Yiran, due to her personal preference for Hidden Weapons, gave up the Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track, which was more suited for her, and chose Hundred Solutions for Hidden Weapons, an ultimate skill.
As for Ma Hongjun and the guard Xu Pan, Lin Rong had the Mysterious Heaven Skill and Purple Demon Eye delivered to Jialing Pass and handed over to Xu Pan.
With many eyes and ears in the army, only the Mysterious Heaven Skill and Purple Demon Eye among the six ultimate skills could be cultivated without attracting attention. Therefore, Lin Rong only gave them these two ultimate skills.
The appearance of these cultivation techniques sparked a cultivation craze within their small circle, and the severe winter cold couldn't dampen their enthusiasm for training.
Time passed slowly.
Soon, the last month of winter passed.
Early spring arrived.
In the manor's cultivation quiet room.
On the ground, the old butler sat cross-legged, circulating the Mysterious Heaven Skill to connect the Ren Meridian, the only one he hadn't connected among his extraordinary meridians.
His already high Soul Power of level ninety-seven allowed him to break through the nine layers of the Mysterious Heaven Skill consecutively in just over twenty days, cultivating the technique to its highest realm of Three Flowers Gathering at the Crown.
At this moment, jade-white Soul Power surged through his meridians, continuously impacting the bottleneck of the Ren Meridian.
The Three Flowers Gathering at the Crown realm produced extremely high-quality Soul Power, also possessing the unique characteristic of inexhaustible vitality from the Mysterious Heaven Skill.
As time slowly passed, the bottleneck of the Ren Meridian gradually loosened, and was finally completely broken at a certain moment.
All extraordinary meridians were connected, and the bridge between heaven and earth within his body was linked.
In an instant, the inner energy of the Mysterious Heaven Skill surged through his meridians like a monstrous tidal wave, circulating a truly complete major Heavenly Cycle.
