Chapter 258: Chapter 249: Ancient Three Thousand Dao Techniques

The Zhou Family was an ancient martial family passed down from the Ancient Times, with a profound background; moreover, with a Saint Venerable like the Zhou Family Ancestor sitting in power, their Emperor Weapon should not be underestimated.

Mo Wangchen was very clear that obliterating such a powerful force single-handedly would be extremely difficult.

However, he also knew that his Heavenly Dao Body was the same as the one of Ling Changkong, the Divine King from a hundred thousand years ago, known as the Divine King Physique. Since ancient times, the Divine King Physique, even able to suppress a Divine Body like the True Dragon Body, was unrivaled.

Once he grew powerful enough, the Zhou Family would eventually be trampled under Mo Wangchen’s feet!

"Although I have Source Stones to supply me now, if I can only absorb ten a day, it’s too slow. Moreover, as my cultivation recovers, the effect of the Source Power gets weaker, and my recovery slows down. It seems I can’t just rely on absorbing Source Stones, I need to cultivate on my own!"

Mo Wangchen made up his mind. He had started cultivating the Piaomiao Immortal Scripture, a high-level spell passed down from Ancient Times. When cultivating with it, the speed of his cultivation improvement was much faster.

Thus, in addition to absorbing the Source Power from the Source Stones, he intended to operate the Piaomiao Immortal Scripture to cultivate, to restore his old level of cultivation as soon as possible. Mo Wangchen even planned to attempt breaking through to the Primordial Spirit Realm!

"Now my Spirit Sea, which is derived from ten Spirit Veins and possesses the Heavenly Dao Body, is several times larger than that of an average person, naturally enhancing my combat power. Speaking of which, I owe the Zhou Family Ancestor for awarding me this vast Spirit Sea; otherwise, I wouldn’t possess such formidable power now!"

"Now that my cultivation has reached the Spirit Transformation Realm, I indeed can refine some Qi Gathering Pills to aid in my cultivation, it’s just the matter of ingredients..."

Upon saying this, Mo Wangchen frowned, as it was a problem. The Qi Gathering Pills he had refined before were all used up, and he had no ingredients on hand.

"I wonder if there are any ingredients in the Piaomiao Palace?"

With this thought in mind, Mo Wangchen immediately stood up, intending to search if there were any ingredients stored within Piaomiao Palace.

Honestly speaking, although the space of the entire Piaomiao Palace was vast, there were only a few buildings within the Sect, so it wouldn’t take too much time to search.

In a matter of an hour, Mo Wangchen had searched all over but, unfortunately, he did not find any ingredients. However, he did discover an ancient hall, within which several ancient tomes were placed.

These ancient tomes recorded the history of Piaomiao Palace.

Mo Wangchen casually flipped through them and came to know a lot of information.

"So, originally, when Ling Changkong ascended the nine levels of the Heavenly Ladder and drew the Sun-Shooting Divine Bow, he was only at the ninth level of the Returning Ruins Realm. His Primordial Spirit Dao Embryo engraved, was it the Sun-Shooting Divine Bow..."

"Hm?"

After browsing through a few ancient tomes, Mo Wangchen found a Martial Technique among them.

"Face Changing Technique?"

He paused for a moment, then immediately opened up the Martial Technique to read.

"One of the three thousand Dao Techniques from Ancient Times..."

Mo Wangchen was surprised; the three thousand Dao Techniques, rumored to have originated even earlier than the Ancient Times, were each immensely powerful. However, the Dao Techniques that had been passed down to the Beiming Land today were scarce.

It was certain that powers like the Zhou Family, Yaochi Immortal Palace, and Wu Family had all inherited at least one Dao Technique, their power incomparably formidable.

It was rumored that the Dao Technique of Yaochi Immortal Palace was a technique called ’Taiqing Creation Technique,’ containing some kind of ’Dao’ implication, its power exceedingly strong.

"The Face Changing Technique allows one to change a person’s appearance at will; not only that, if one could obtain a drop of the person’s blood, not only would the appearance and even the aura be replicated, but it would also mimic the cultivation pressure..."

Mo Wangchen was surprised. In other words, if he cultivated the Face Changing Technique and obtained a drop of Piaomiao Saint Venerable’s fresh blood, his appearance could not only become the same as Piaomiao Saint Venerable’s, but even their temperament would be identical.

Most importantly, he could release the same kind of imposing aura of Saint Venerable Level as Piaomiao Saint Venerable, albeit only to bluff others. In a true battle, his reliance would still be on his own strength.

"Just in time, there are no medicinal herbs in the Piaomiao Palace. With this Face Changing Technique, I can alter my appearance and buy some herbs outside without fear of being discovered, to avoid running into people from the Zhou Family."

With these thoughts in his mind, Mo Wangchen soon left the great hall with the Face Changing Technique.

Over the following few days, he spent most of his time studying the Face Changing Technique. It had to be said that, as one of the Three Thousand Ancient Dao Techniques, although it was just a minor trick, mastering it was not as easy as he had imagined.

It wasn’t until five days later that he had finally mastered some skills of the Face Changing Technique and was able to make simple alterations to his appearance. However, there was no significant change in his temperament.

After all, to change one’s temperament, one would need another’s fresh blood.

However, as long as he could change his appearance, that was enough for Mo Wangchen!

On this day, Mo Wangchen informed Yaoyao that he intended to go out. He did not plan to bring the Phoenix alongside, since the incident of him controlling the Phoenix had long been spread throughout Beiming. If he were to travel with the Phoenix, it would only draw more attention.

The mountain gate of the Piaomiao Palace was protected by some powerful array, set up by the Piaomiao Saint Venerable before leaving, using a Forbidden Technique. Even for a Saint Venerable powerhouse, it would not be easy to break through.

Mo Wangchen knew the method of entry and exit from the Piaomiao Saint Venerable, so he easily made his way out.

The Piaomiao Palace was located in the Jinyang Domain, and the nearest city was called Liusu City, the place where Mo Wangchen had stayed before he came to the Piaomiao Palace for the assessment.

He planned to go there to purchase some herbs needed for Alchemy.

Without the cultivation of the Returning Ruins Realm, he could not fly. However, with Mo Wangchen’s speed, it would take only half a day to arrive.

Just like before, the Beiming Land was abuzz with activity, with Ancient Martial families and Hidden Sects emerging. In the city, one could occasionally see disciples from these families and Sects.

Mo Wangchen had changed his appearance, but he still looked to be around twenty years old.

While purchasing herbs, he also learned of many recent developments.

"The Qiu Family Saint Child has emerged. It is said that the Qiu Family used a Forbidden Technique, summoning a drop of their ancestor’s Essence Blood, which was used on the Saint Child. He has now become one of the geniuses on the Great Emperor Candidate Rank!"

"Qiu Family Saint Child Qiu Chengye is exceptionally talented and has the demeanor of a Young Emperor just after his emergence, complicating the situation in Beiming even further."

"It’s said that Little Peng King Zhou Tong recently visited the Qiu Family and confronted Qiu Chengye. The two fought a battle that shook the heavens and earth, not much less splendid than those of the Great Emperors in their youth!"

"Both are geniuses listed on the Great Emperor Candidate Rank. From their clash, it’s heard that there was no victor, and they fought to a standstill!"

"One has the Ancient Kunpeng Bloodline, and the other inherited the ancestor’s Essence Blood. Both are unparalleled talents, but in this era, the most promising to become the Great Emperor is probably the Wu Family Divine Body, Wu Lingfeng!"

"The majesty of the Divine Body is unparalleled, and such an adversary is rare throughout history. It’s truly a grand era where so many geniuses have been born at the same time. There are also the Lin Family Saintess Lin Jing, and the Yaochi Immortal Palace Saintess Qin Yue..."

"It is heard that Qin Yue has absorbed Kunpeng Essence Blood. The Taiyin Body should not be underestimated. It probably won’t be long before she can compete with the Divine Body, Little Peng King, and others!"

"It’s a pity that the Piaomiao Palace Saint has fallen. With the Divine King Body, he could suppress even the Wu Family Divine Body, yet he was strangled in the cradle. In this great era, his story will not be told!"
