The Divine Elephant Suppressing Prison Technique wasn't like other Spiritual Techniques, which followed rigid rules and required one to reach the Spirit Movement Stage before practicing.
As long as one could condense a Dragon-Elephant Phantom, their cultivation could enter the Spirit Movement Stage.
"Of course, even to condense a Dragon-Elephant Phantom, the Spiritual Energy required is unimaginable. For others, it would be impossible to succeed in a short time!"
"But I'm different. I possess a Divine Vein, which gathers several times more Spiritual Energy than others."
"The Divine Elephant Suppressing Prison Technique is practically tailor-made for me."
Mu Yuan smiled slightly. He was now somewhat looking forward to the academy trials in ten days.
He withdrew his thoughts and turned his gaze towards Mu Chen, asking:
"Little Mu, have you made your choice?"
At this moment, Mu Chen was holding three jade slips in his hands.
The Heaven-Shaking Technique, the Spirit Gathering Mirror, and the Flame Dragon Method were all Spirit Grade, low-grade spiritual techniques.
Spirit Grade spiritual techniques! They were worth at least a million Spirit Coins.
He was quite fond of all three techniques, and for a moment, he was a little hesitant about which one to choose.
"Little Mu, although these three spiritual techniques each have their own merits, their power is not too different. You can choose one to cultivate first. If you find a more suitable technique later, you can switch."
Mu Feng offered Mu Chen a suggestion.
Mu Chen nodded and then asked Mu Yuan:
"Brother Yuan, how about you help me take a look?"
Mu Chen had complete faith in Brother Yuan's judgment.
"Little Mu, actually, none of these three Spiritual Techniques are suitable for you. Your father still has another Spiritual Technique in his collection, and it suits you perfectly."
Mu Yuan smiled slightly.
The Great Pagoda Art was tailor-made for Mu Chen.
"Huh?"
Mu Chen was stunned for a moment, then turned his head to Mu Feng and asked, "Dad, is what Brother Yuan said true?"
He had a feeling that the spiritual technique hidden by his father was extremely important to him.
If he missed it, he would regret it for the rest of his life.
Mu Feng glared fiercely at Mu Yuan and said:
"You brat, you really can't hide anything from you."
After speaking, Mu Feng retrieved a dark gray jade slip covered in dust from deep within the stone shelf, his eyes filled with complex emotions.
After a long while, he finally exhaled heavily, and gave a wry smile:
"This jade slip was left by your mother, I originally planned to let it remain sealed forever."
"Mother?"
Mu Chen's body couldn't help but tremble slightly.
Since birth, he seemed never to have seen his mother.
Only deep in his heart did a vague yet extraordinarily gentle shadow linger.
"Mother?"
Mu Yuan was also deeply moved.
In his previous life, he was an orphan without parents.
After transmigrating to the Great Thousand World, he experienced familial love for the first time.
Although he wasn't Qing Yanjing's biological son, he would always remember that indistinct, gentle shadow.
It was her who blocked the fatal blow for him when he was just a baby.
It was also her who traversed mountains and rivers to find life-saving medicine for him.
In Mu Yuan's heart, he had long considered her his true mother.
"You have always been the people she cared about most. It's your father's fault for being useless, and not being able to reunite our family."
Mu Feng slowly clenched his fists, his eyes fixed on Mu Yuan and Mu Chen as he said with self-deprecating words:
"I once tried hard, but... I still failed, I'm sorry."
His eyes were filled with endless longing.
Mu Yuan knew that Qing Yanjing had voluntarily been imprisoned in the Ancient Pagoda Clan for their safety.
"The Ancient Pagoda Clan, huh?"
"Sooner or later, we brothers will stir up a storm there."
After a long moment, Mu Yuan looked up and smiled slightly at Mu Feng.
"Dad, don't worry. We brothers will accomplish what you couldn't!"
"Dad, Brother Yuan is right. Brother Yuan and I have grown up. One day, I will reunite our family, and no one will be able to stop us!"
Mu Chen's tender face showed a determined expression.
Mu Feng stared at his two sons, a surge of sorrow washing over him, causing his eyes to redden slightly. Finally, he nodded heavily.
After leaving the stone room, Mu Yuan left the dark jade slip with Mu Chen, and instructed:
"Xiao Mu, you must work hard to cultivate the Great Pagoda Art. Don't bring shame to its name."
"Brother Yuan, this spiritual technique was left to us by Mom. Aren't you going to cultivate it with me?"
Mu Chen looked at Mu Yuan in surprise.
"As the number one freak in the world, although the Great Pagoda Art is extraordinary, it really isn't suitable for me."
Mu Yuan stood with his hands behind his back, looking up at the sky.
With the Divine Elephant Suppressing Prison Technique, I naturally wouldn't care about the Great Pagoda Art.
"..."
Mu Chen looked at Mu Yuan speechlessly.
Mu Yuan sometimes liked to spout nonsense or grand theories.
He was also quite narcissistic.
"If you think I'm just boasting, we can spar before we return to Northern Spirit Academy."
Mu Yuan chuckled.
"Alright."
Mu Chen nodded seriously.
"Brother Yuan, I won't let you down."
"Then I'll be a witness, seeing which of my two genius sons is stronger?"
Mu Feng's voice sounded behind them.
"Alright, it's settled then."
Mu Yuan chuckled.
In order to ensure he could defeat Liu Yang on the day of the academy exam.
Liu Yang possessed a Human Grade Spirit Vein, and it was known that even mid-Lingdong stage practitioners couldn't do anything to him.
It was unclear how strong Liu Yang actually was.
As long as he cultivated to the point where he could beat Mu Chen, he should be able to completely crush Liu Yang on the day of the academy exam.
The logic was sound, wasn't it?
As for the Spirit Breaking Pearl?
Since he knew about this thing, he naturally wouldn't let Liu Yang succeed that day.
"No choice, who told me I'm familiar with the plot of The Chief Sovereign?"
Mu Yuan experienced the benefits of spoilers.
No wonder people always say:
"Spoiling is fun for a while, spoiling is always fun!"
The next day, early morning.
The brilliant sunlight streamed down through the gaps in the dense leaves, forming thick and thin beams of light that illuminated the entire courtyard.
"Transform the body into a pagoda, to prove the great path of the spirit..."
Mu Chen sat cross-legged on the stone platform and began to circulate his Spiritual Power, following the meridian routes outlined in the cultivation manual.
After a long while, the originally crystal-clear Spiritual Power within his body began to change. Its color gradually darkened, taking on a profound hue.
A smile played on Mu Chen's lips.
"It worked!"
At this point, the dark Spiritual Power could no longer be called Spiritual Power. It had to be called Spiritual Power.
Mu Chen could vaguely feel that beneath that stillness, there seemed to be a heart-stopping sharpness and domineering force hidden.
Clearly, the Spiritual Power cultivated by this Great Pagoda Art absolutely cannot be compared to the Spiritual Power cultivated by ordinary spiritual techniques!
"The things this old lady left behind are indeed extraordinary, huh, Mu Yuan, you've miscalculated this time."
The power of the Great Pagoda Art exceeded Mu Chen's expectations; he doubted that there was a spiritual technique in the entire Northern Spirit Realm that could compare to it.
Mu Chen was very clear about his current strength.
He had also just started with the Great Pagoda Art.
According to what was said in the formula, the Great Pagoda Art should be divided into three realms: Foundation Establishment, Form Condensation, and Pagoda Transformation.
Before returning to the Northern Spirit Academy, he estimated that he could cultivate the Great Pagoda Art to a point not too far from the first realm, Foundation Establishment.
Forget about one Mu Yuan, even ten Mu Yuans might not be able to beat him.
Undeniably, Brother Yuan's talent is truly freakish, even more so than those with Heaven Grade Spirit Veins in the Spiritual Path.
But to surpass himself in just a few days, the chances are really slim!
