Chapter 49: Eight Dragons Sacred Heart Technique V2.0 No More Changes Allowed
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Feng Xia had some understanding of the Dragon Vein Resonance Technique within the Nine Dragons Sacred Heart Technique.
However, his understanding was very limited.
After all, Mo Yushu was not powerful enough, and he also suspected that the attribute drop rate had been secretly modified. Therefore, the Nine Dragons Sacred Heart Technique he currently possessed was only a small part of the complete cultivation technique.
As for the Dragon Vein Resonance Technique, there were only some relevant descriptions in the incomplete cultivation technique he possessed so far. There was no specific content regarding this secret technique.
His original plan was to beat up Mo Yushu a few more times and strive to learn the complete Dragon Vein Resonance Technique. Then, he would find the other hidden spies of the imperial court one by one and beat them into the same shape as Mo Yushu.
However, the plan had suffered a major setback at the first step.
By beating up Mo Yushu too much in a short period of time, it resulted in the drop rate of the attribute light balls being decreased by a lot!
Feng Xia also had ample reason to suspect that if he continued like this, it was still uncertain if he could gather all the cultivation technique fragments. Mo Yushu might not be able to survive the ordeal—even though he applied wound medicine for Mo Yushu after every beating, it might not be enough to save him.
Therefore, his idea of farming the dropped balls by using the same person clearly could not work.
If he wanted to learn the Dragon Vein Resonance Technique, he would have to obtain the complete Nine Dragons Sacred Heart Technique. If he wanted to obtain the complete Nine Dragons Sacred Heart Technique, he would have to master the Dragon Vein Resonance Technique first.
—No matter how he looked at it, it was an absolutely vicious infinite cycle of doom.
“I really never expected that someone would send me timely help when I’m about to give up, like sending coal on a snowy day…”
Recalling the series of information that the other party had reported, Feng Xia’s lips curled up uncontrollably. He slowly spat out a few more words, “Oh no, it’s actually more like sending me useful heads on a snowy day!”
It was such timely assistance!
Although he did not know who the good Samaritan was, it was obvious to him that someone from their side had infiltrated the enemy’s team. Of course, it was also possible that there was no infiltration involved but that some other unexpected situation had happened.
For example… people from the alternate world did not know that they should not broadcast their secret communication on a public channel?
“It should be the former situation. No matter how I think about it, the latter situation is too stupid…” Feng Xia rubbed his chin and pondered. “However, if the information did not reach me but reached the other hidden spies, then what’s the point of our spy doing this?”
He pondered for a long time. Suddenly, he thought of something that he found unbelievable.
If the information was true, it meant that the imperial court had set up 18 undercover spies in the Thousand Autumn Valley. This meant that there were 18 traitors among them now.
However, based on what he saw, the enemy’s team was also not united. It seemed that there were also traitors among them.
Otherwise, he would not have encountered such a thing.
“If one of these 18 spies actually has a double identity, that is to say, he is a traitor among the traitors…”
He thought that his hypothesis did not sound like nonsense…
Furthermore, once this hypothesis was established, everything that happened earlier immediately became logical to him!
“I’m not going to think so much. Let’s look for Mo Yin first. Oh right, he’s now one of the officials of the Thousand Autumn Valley. I don’t think he uses the name Mo Yin…”
On this night.
One of the senior officials of the Thousand Autumn Valley, Yin Kaiyu, was attacked by a mysterious person. In his rage, Yin Kaiyu fought back with all his might, but he was still no match for the mysterious person. He was ruthlessly beaten up and then thrown into the smelly ditch at the back of the mountain.
When the disciples of the Thousand Autumn Valley found Yin Kaiyu, the senior official’s entire body was as swollen as a pig’s head. The bumpy bruises on his head were shiny and clear. At first glance, he looked like some rare mutated demonic beast!
“Who is so daring as to attack one of our sect’s officials?!”
First Elder Lei Shao of the Thousand Autumn Valley was furious. Together with the newly promoted guest elder Feng Xia, they searched the entire Thousand Autumn Valley, but could not find any trace of the intruder.
At that moment, the official, Yin Kaiyu, regained consciousness and slowly said a few words.
“The person who hurt me… Tian… Tianjue Sect Master…”
With that, he fell unconscious again.
First Elder Lei Shao examined the wounds and confirmed what the official just said. “It’s indeed a technique of the Tianjue Sect. Divine beings who cultivate the Heavenly Pattern Breathing Technique will often leave behind special marks after they attack. It’s very difficult for non-Tianjue Sect disciples to imitate such marks…”
“How dare the Tianjue Sect! Do they really think that our Thousand Autumn Valley is useless?!”
A few experts from the Thousand Autumn Valley wanted to rush out of the valley and fight, but they were all stopped by the new guest elder, Feng Xia.
This mysterious young man shook his head and warned them with a serious expression, “This is the enemy’s provocation method. They have already used the array formation to lock down the Thousand Autumn Valley. They’re provoking us to go out now so that they can defeat us one by one and thus reduce the intensity of their subsequent invasion.”
“If you rush out now, you’ll be falling into their trap.”
“But can we kill the enemy by simply waiting?”
The Fifth Elder looked at Feng Xia with an impatient expression.
Mo Yushu, who had been beaten up by Feng Xia many times, was the Fifth Elder’s disciple. Therefore, even though he had never interacted with Feng Xia before, he did not like this young man at all.
As one of only six elders, the Fifth Elder also had a lot of inside information.
If the current stalemate dragged on, it was indeed more beneficial for the Thousand Autumn Valley.
However, on the other hand, the enemy’s primary goal was also to just stall for time. Once that person from the royal city reached the Thousand Autumn Valley, even if the old sect master had reached the Primal Core Realm by then, he would only be a beginner of the realm and it would still be difficult for the sect master to match the skill of that person…
He did not want to think too much about the worst outcome.
“If we continue to wait without doing anything, we naturally won’t be able to deal with the enemy. However, while waiting… we can also choose to become stronger.” Feng Xia smiled mysteriously.
“Hmph! That’s easy for you to say!”
The Fifth Elder snorted and said coldly, “How can it be so easy to become stronger quickly? Resources, cultivation techniques and the ability to comprehend the techniques are all indispensable. Resources can be obtained from our sect’s secret vault, but what about cultivation techniques?
“Speaking of which, although it will sound like I’m praising others and looking down on ourselves, all these sects outside have their own unique inheritances…”
“I have cultivation techniques.”
The Fifth Elder was interrupted by Feng Xia halfway through his rant.
As everyone stared at him, the mysterious young man grinned. Suddenly, he shook his arms. Muscles started bulging on his originally thin body, and surging blood essence erupted like a dragon breathing fire. He formed a large blood-colored aura around himself, causing enough pressure in the environment to make everyone find it difficult to breathe!
“The Xuanwu royal family’s Nine Dragons… oh no, the Eight Dragons Sacred Heart Technique that I happened to pick up by the roadside. Does anyone want to learn it?”
The young man in white looked around him with a warm smile on his face.
