Chapter 415: Chapter 406: 9 Secrets of the True Technique

"Follow me."

Dongfang Li looked at Mo Wangchen and the others, then with a faint smile, he finished speaking and turned to fly towards the distance.

Mo Wangchen and the others looked at each other, their faces full of confusion, but they didn’t hesitate too much. They all leaped into the air and followed.

Inside the Hidden Dragon Academy, there were waterfalls, dense forests, lakeshores—every kind of place you could imagine. There weren’t many buildings, unlike the Yun Chu Academy in Yun Country, this place was more like a wilderness.

The land occupied by the entire Hidden Dragon Academy wasn’t small; if it came down to it, it was many times larger than Yunge City in Yun Country’s County Capital.

There were plenty of mountain ranges that formed their own realm, filled with a rich essence of Source Power, and everywhere there was the flow of the essence of Dao Techniques.

Mo Wangchen and his companions, following Dongfang Li, descended upon a lone peak called Evergreen Peak. Towering into the clouds, a sweeping gaze allowed one to see the entire landscape of the Hidden Dragon Academy.

There were many places like Evergreen Peak within the Hidden Dragon Academy, all of which were dwellings of the academy’s Elder figures. Each one resided on a solitary peak, their Cultivation cutting through heaven, they were indeed rare and formidable figures of the present age.

It was rumored that there were two Emperor Realm Great Powers overseeing the Hidden Dragon Academy, hidden within this space, their whereabouts unknown. Unless something significant occurred, they rarely appeared.

"It’s been a year, and you all seem to have grown a lot. Back in the Feixue Pavilion, you were only at the third or fourth turn of the Nirvana Realm."

Upon Evergreen Peak, there was an open space filled with green grass. Not far away, there stood a simple wooden house with a towering pagoda tree in front, around which a special Law seemed to weave, where Dongfang Li presumably practiced daily under the tree.

Hearing Dongfang Li’s praise, the crowd exchanged glances and began to smile. As it turned out, the rapid progress in their Cultivation over the past year was entirely due to the Longevity Scripture.

"Senior, we’ve heard that within the Hidden Dragon Academy, there is an Ancient Road that leads to the Outer World of Canglan?" Mo Wangchen suddenly asked.

Dongfang Li’s gaze came over, and he nodded, "Beyond Canglan, there are countless Star Domains, but because they are so far apart, there is little contact between them. As for that Ancient Road, it will open once you new Disciples grow to a certain extent."

"At that time, among you, those with outstanding strength will be able to set foot on the Ancient Road to the Outer World beyond Canglan."

"Rumor has it that there are Immortals in the Outer World, is that true or false?" Wu Lingfeng couldn’t help asking.

Dongfang Li just smiled, "Such matters depend on belief. If you believe, it exists; if you don’t, it doesn’t. Don’t aim too high; for now, the Emperor Road is your goal. If you qualify to go to the Outer World, you will naturally come to know."

"Senior, I have a question I hope you can answer," Mo Wangchen stepped forward.

"Speak."

"Tiannan was sealed by a Barrier. I want to know, what kind of existence has such power to close off an entire Plane?" As he spoke, the fervor in Mo Wangchen’s eyes became apparent; this was the key to finding Yaoyao.

Hearing this, everyone’s gaze turned toward Dongfang Li, clearly curious about the being capable of sealing the whole of Tiannan and how powerful it must be—was it the legendary Immortal?

Dongfang Li remained silent. After a brief pause, he finally spoke, "Perhaps, after you step into the Emperor Realm, you will understand. For some things, it is best that you do not know them now."

Hearing this, the crowd fell silent, it seemed that there were still many unknowns in this world.

"In a few days, the Hidden Dragon Academy will open the Hidden Dragon Secret Realm, a test for all of you who have newly entered the Academy. It was once an Ancient Battlefield site, with countless opportunities. Emperor Weapons, Magical Treasures, and Ancient Emperor Inheritances might all appear."

"Hidden Dragon Secret Realm?" Upon hearing this, everyone’s faces showed shock and surprise.

Although they did not know what kind of place it was, the fact that it contained Emperor Weapons and the Ancient Emperor’s inheritance was too astonishing to be true.

No wonder, for millions of years, so many people had gone to great lengths to join the Hidden Dragon Academy, not to mention that it was a separate realm of its own, with the flow of Tao Laws, making it an excellent place for cultivation.

Now, there was also that Secret Realm, with the inheritance of the Ancient Emperor!

"The Secret Realm will open in five days. Whether you can seize the opportunity depends on your own creation. Within the Secret Realm, life and death are fated; you should think carefully about whether or not you wish to enter," Dongfang Li said.

"Apart from the Emperor Weapons and inheritance, is there nothing else?" Mo Wangchen suddenly asked.

Uh!

Upon hearing this, not just Wu Lingfeng and the others, but even Dongfang Li himself, were taken aback.

He looked at Mo Wangchen and then said with a wry smile, "In the vast Universe, what could be more precious than the Emperor Weapons and the Ancient Emperor’s inheritance?"

Mo Wangchen frowned slightly and said, "It seems a bit meaningless then..."

He was not lacking in Emperor Weapons, and with the Undying Saint Body Scripture, the Ancient Emperor’s inheritance was not of much use to him either.

Zhuo Bufan and others said, "Yes, we already have the Longevity Scripture, which is an inheritance from an Ancient Emperor. Instead of going into that Secret Realm, it’s better to cultivate properly. The Hidden Dragon Academy is a blessed place. Cultivating here to grow stronger is what truly matters."

The others nodded in agreement after hearing this.

Dongfang Li laughed and said, "There are the Nine Secrets True Techniques in this world, the nine strongest Dao Techniques of this realm. It is rumored that one of the Nine Secrets is within the Hidden Dragon Secret Realm. Those who attain it can have cultivation that reaches the heavens, unstoppable, defying fate itself!"

"Nine Secrets True Technique?" Mo Wangchen and the others frowned, obviously having never heard of it, but if it was as Dongfang Li said, one of the nine strongest Dao Techniques in the world, it was indeed very tempting.

"Does the Hidden Dragon Secret Realm open every time the Academy takes in new members?" Mo Wangchen asked.

Dongfang Li nodded.

"If so, then the Hidden Dragon Secret Realm must have been opened many times. Has anyone ever acquired one of these so-called Nine Secrets?" Mo Wangchen asked with shining eyes.

"I’ve examined the historical records, which mention that twenty thousand years ago, someone did acquire it, and with the help of the Nine Secrets Dao Technique, he set foot on the journey to the world beyond Canglan, sweeping across all under the heavens, unstoppable."

"No one in the world beyond Canglan could suppress him?" Mo Wangchen and the others were astonished, realizing the formidable power of the Nine Secrets True Technique.

"Senior, you said we are new disciples. The Hidden Dragon Academy has existed for so many years. What about those geniuses who joined in the past? They were all monsters of their eras, but it seems we have never encountered any of them here."

"The Hidden Dragon Academy is presided over by two Deans, both of whom are Emperor Realm Great Powers with cultivation that can pierce the heavens and the earth. They too were once disciples here and decided to stay."

"As for those monsters from different eras who joined, either they have already fallen, becoming the dust of their times, or they have ventured beyond Canglan, now renowned in the Outer World, their names living through the ages," Dongfang Li explained.
