Ancient Dragon Elephant Technique

Chapter 533: Chapter 2: Wind Thunder Valley

”The battles of the ancient strongmen are naturally beyond imagination; they were all beings at the Divine Spirit Level. You know, now on the Heavenly Martial Continent, there no longer exist strongmen of this level,” said the Fire Kirin.

Lin Feng nodded. The Fire Kirin had not broken through to Divine Spirit, being called the Flame Saint Monarch, who was already the top strongman of the Heavenly Martial Continent.

From the Jade Tube left by his father, it appeared that the strongmen of the Divine Spirit Realm should exist in the extraterrestrial world.

...

”This slash created the Thunder Blade Secret Realm, so is the Thunder Blade Secret Realm always enveloped by prohibitive enchantments?” asked Lin Feng.

”It’s not prohibitive enchantments, it’s the Order Law of destruction,” replied the Fire Kirin.

”Order Law, what is that?” Lin Feng inquired.

”To put it this way, look at the seasonal changes of spring, summer, autumn, and winter, and the natural course of human birth, aging, sickness, and death; these are natural laws, or what cultivators refer to as the Heavenly Dao. The physical manifestation of the Heavenly Dao in terms of power is the force of the Order Law, much like how much Dragon Power a cultivator at the Martial General Realm possesses, but clearly, the power of the Order Law is not something just anyone can touch. Even strongmen at the Great Ability Level would be instantly annihilated by the force of the Order Law. Hence, if the Thunder Blade Secret Realm is not activated, nobody would dare to trespass into it recklessly; the outcome would be extremely tragic,” explained the Fire Kirin.

”Then why is the Thunder Blade Secret Realm only accessible to cultivators below the Yin Yang Realm?” Lin Feng asked.

”That may just be due to the power of the Order Law, which can change many things,” the Fire Kirin answered.

”Are you planning to go with me into the Thunder Blade Secret Realm?” Lin Feng inquired.

The Fire Kirin said helplessly, ”Even if I wanted to enter, I can’t. Although my Divine Power has been devoured, my realm still remains.”

Lin Feng could only nod.

In the following days, Lin Feng learned the technique of ”Gold Separation and Positioning” from the Fire Kirin.

The old text says: To search for dragon veins, observe the coiling mountains; each layer of coils represents a level of challenge. If the gateway possesses eight layers of dangers, it does not deviate from the shape of the Yin Yang Eight Trigrams.

This mnemonic is called the ”Dragon Seeking Technique,” which is a method within the art of Gold Separation and Positioning.

Just as the saying goes: The Faqiu seal, the Tomb Raider amulet, the Mountain-Shifting and Ridge-Unloading Dragon Seeking Technique; humans light candles, ghosts blow out lamps, geography experts with inverted buckets search for star peaks; using mercury to cultivate light, countless have gone to the dragon towers and treasure halls; sinking into deep coffins, bronze coffers, without the strength of the Eight Trigrams, do not approach.

The art of tomb raiding has been inherited from ancient times, with an extremely long history. Tomb raiders come in many kinds; Tomb Raider Captains, Banshan Taoists, Faqiu Middle Langjiangs, among others. Only after exchanging with the Fire Kirin did Lin Feng realize that The Wuliang Taoist was a ”Banshan Taoist.”

Of course, Banshan Taoists are also Taoists, but they aren’t accepted by orthodox Taoism, because Banshan Taoists specialize in digging up the ancestral graves and stealing treasures for personal gain, which is seen as harming one’s Yin De in the eyes of Taoism.

Naturally, Lin Feng didn’t learn the technique of ”Gold Separation and Positioning” from the Fire Kirin to go tomb raiding, as he wasn’t much interested in such things. However, the technique of Gold Separation and Positioning was quite useful in searching for Ancient Cultivator Cave Mansions and even for determining Dragon Caves, seeking geomancy, and finding Spirit Veins.

...

The sect finally spread the news that Great Elder Zhaang Quan would personally lead the elite disciples among the Outer Disciples to the Thunder Blade Secret Realm.

As for the ordinary disciples, the sect did not recommend them to enter the Thunder Blade Secret Realm, as it was quite chaotic inside. The occurrence of killing for treasure was commonplace. If one’s cultivation was insufficient, entering the Thunder Blade Secret Realm was akin to seeking death.

As for the Inner Sect Disciples of Azure Cloud Sect, they were all cultivating in the ”Mystic Spirit Space” of Azure Cloud Sect.

The Mystic Spirit Space was a space condensed by the Divine Spirit Realm founder of Azure Cloud Sect, the Azure Cloud Ancestor, with his supreme mana. The spiritual energy there was dozens of times more than the outside world and could truly be called a Cultivation Sacred Land. It was situated in the deepest part of Azure Cloud Sect, and the disciples who cultivated inside basically did not associate with Outer Disciples.

Lin Feng had heard in the Star Cloud Pavilion that there was a mysterious ancestral land that was also a Cultivation Sacred Land. It was clear that the Mystic Spirit Space of Azure Cloud Sect was very similar to the ancestral land of Star Cloud Pavilion.

The two or three hundred thousand Outer Disciples all hoped to be promoted to Inner Sect Disciples and enter the Mystic Spirit Space to cultivate.

Of course, becoming an Inner Sect Disciple was not an easy matter.

”The Inner Sect Disciples will be led by a Great Elder from the Inner Academy to the Thunder Blade Secret Realm, and the entrance they will use is different from ours. We are going to Wind Thunder Valley, from where we enter the Thunder Blade Secret Realm, the fierce beasts and the like we encounter are relatively weaker. Naturally, there will be fewer cave mansions, spiritual mines, and Spiritual Medicine as well. The entrance for the Inner Sect Disciples is called Sky Cloud Valley. Entering from that place, the fierce beasts they encounter will be much stronger, the danger will substantially increase a lot, but there are more opportunities,” Shee Weizhu explained, seeming to have some understanding of the Thunder Blade Secret Realm.

Wang Hu said, ”We’ve really come at a good time, just when the Thunder Blade Secret Realm has opened. If we cultivate inside the Thunder Blade Secret Realm for half a year and can obtain enough opportunities, maybe we can also become Inner Sect Disciples.”

There were many conditions for becoming an Inner Sect Disciple. The first condition was that one’s cultivation had to reach the Eighth Layer Heaven of Martial King Realm or above.

The second condition was talent. If one’s Martial Soul was too poor, it would also be difficult to become an Inner Sect Disciple.

The third condition was bloodline. If one’s Bloodline Power didn’t meet the sect’s requirements, they also could not become an Inner Sect Disciple.

Take Jingping, the first senior brother of Heavenly Repair Peak, for example. His cultivation had already reached the Tenth Level of Martial King Realm, but Jingping’s combat power was even inferior to some cultivators in the Seventh or Eighth Layer Heaven of Martial King Realm who had stronger talents.

This was because Jingping’s Martial Soul was only a type of vine Martial Soul, and secondly because Jingping’s Bloodline Power was also very weak.

The reason why Jingping was able to break through to the Tenth Level of Martial King Realm was entirely due to his diligent cultivation.

However, without talent and a weak bloodline, it would be incredibly difficult to make further breakthroughs, almost as hard as ascending to the heavens. Therefore, even though Jingping was at the Tenth Level of Martial King Realm, he had not been able to become an Inner Sect Disciple because the sect deemed him to have no future.

This time, Jingping was also going to the Thunder Blade Secret Realm. He wanted to find opportunities within the Thunder Blade Secret Realm to break free from the shackles of fate. Of course, this would not be easy.

After all, Jingping’s talent was too poor. Even if his bloodline had changed, his Martial Soul was really too weak, and it would not be easy for him to achieve great success in the future.

Because the stronger the Martial Soul, the faster the cultivation speed. With Jingping’s weak Martial Soul, his cultivation would be extremely slow.

Three days later, about five thousand disciples took a few dozen huge Griffin Beasts to head toward Wind Thunder Valley.

”Look, that’s Wind Thunder Valley.”

Half a month later, everyone finally arrived at Wind Thunder Valley. Gale winds swept through, and in the sky above, thunder and lightning intertwined. A huge valley was formed under the years of erosion by thunder, lightning, and wind; this valley was Wind Thunder Valley, one of the entrances to the Thunder Blade Secret Realm.
