Mrs. and Mr. Smith
Chapter 1888

Chapter 1888: Chapter 1888: The Horrors of Inheritance_1 Chapter 1888: Chapter 1888: The Horrors of Inheritance_1 Ethan Smith was suddenly shocked. Could it be that these cultivation skills really do not need to be comprehended and can be directly used?

Is this intentionally left by his father, or because of the Bloodline?

If it's because of the Bloodline, wouldn't the children of the various Great Families be able to directly comprehend the techniques left by their ancestors?

Ethan Smith remained silent and tried to capture a Golden Light once again.

This time, the Golden Light still entered Ethan's primordial spirit and turned into a memory.

What's different this time was that instead of cultivation skill, it marked a location where treasure seemed to be hidden.

“There's even treasure…” Ethan Smith gasped, finding it increasingly unbelievable.

As a Guardian, his father should be able to perceive any hidden treasure in the world, right?

Could it be that he stored all his memories inside himself?

If that's the case, wouldn't Ethan be able to know the whereabouts of hidden treasures in the world and retrieve them?

Ethan remained silent, sitting cross-legged, seemingly lost in thought.

His father must have done this against the rules. If others were to find out, he would undoubtedly face even more severe punishment.

His father had already violated the Path of Heaven by saving Ethan, and now he left such important secrets in Ethan's mind. Who knows what will happen in the future?

*Sigh.*

After an unknown period of time, Ethan got up and let out a long sigh.

This was his father's decision; Ethan had no right to criticize. The effort can only be described as painstaking; all Ethan could do was to not waste his father's hard work.

The sky gradually brightened, and it was time to leave Thunder Academy.

That day, the gate had opened early, and the two envoys were waiting there.

Ethan Smith and Frederick Cohen walked out of Walters' Academy together, and then, under the guidance of the two envoys, they returned to the first main peak.

As soon as they left the teleportation formation, Frederick couldn't help but exclaim excitedly, “Walters' Academy really is a treasure trove! How come I didn't discover it earlier!”

Ethan Smith glanced at Frederick and laughed, “Then just stay here. As long as you have points, you can enter Walters' Academy anytime.”

Frederick quickly shook his head, “No, no, no. Wherever you go, I go. I'm sticking with you.”

Ethan knew that he couldn't persuade Frederick. Moreover, now that he controlled so many resources in the Holy Region, bringing Frederick along was a good choice.

“You go back to Demon-slaying Peak and wait for me; I have to go see Dean Garner.” Ethan told Frederick.

Frederick agreed, and then left the first main peak.

Ethan, on the other hand, went straight to Dean Garner's residence. Standing at the door, he said softly, “Ethan Smith pays his respects to Dean Garner.”

A minute later, Dean Garner's voice came from inside.

“Come in,” Dean Garner said.

Ethan Smith quickly walked into the room and stood in front of Dean Garner.

With a wave of his palm, a cushion appeared in front of Ethan.

Ethan sat down across from Dean Garner, and as soon as he seated himself, Dean Garner smiled and asked, “Did you gain anything from your time at Thunder Academy?”

“I gained quite a lot. I exchanged for the Thunder Mystical Technique.” Ethan answered truthfully.

Dean Garner was not surprised. He chuckled, “I knew you wouldn't miss the Thunder Mystical Technique. Not just you, but almost everyone in the Thunder Academy wouldn't miss it. It's only a pity that so far, no one has been able to comprehend this technique.”

Ethan nodded, “I've also tried to comprehend this technique, but unfortunately, I can't find any clues.”

“Hahaha!” Dean Garner couldn't help but burst into laughter.

He said lightly, “It took me a full three hundred years to comprehend the Thunder Mystical Technique. If you had found a clue so quickly, I wouldn't need to be the dean.”

Ethan was somewhat surprised.

He didn't expect that even someone like Dean Garner would spend hundreds of years to successfully comprehend the technique!

“What about Ella Jenkins?” Ethan asked.

“She took five hundred years.” Dean Garner replied.

Ethan became even more astonished! Ella Jenkins' legend was well-known. It was said that if it weren't for her partner, she might have stepped into the Tribulation Stage Realm by now!

This was enough to prove that Ella Jenkins' talent was unmatched by ordinary people, and she could even be said to have a talent that was not inferior to anyone in the Holy Region!

But even with her talent, the time she needed to comprehend the Thunder Mystical Technique was even longer than Dean Garner's!

Seeing Ethan's confusion, Dean Garner spoke lightly, “Don't be surprised. I am, after all, a descendant of Immortal Emperor Eden Garner, with his blood remaining in me, so the time I need to comprehend the techniques is naturally shorter.”

Hearing this, Ethan Smith couldn't help but mutter, “So that's how it is. It seems I didn't guess wrong.”

“Oh?” Dean Garner raised an eyebrow, seemingly surprised.

Ethan explained, “To be honest, I was considering this issue. I specifically came to visit you today to discuss this matter.”

Dean Garner was silent, gesturing for Ethan to continue.

“When descendants try to comprehend the techniques of their ancestors, is it easier? Or even so easy that it doesn't require comprehension at all?” Ethan frowned.

Dean Garner nodded slightly, “Correct. For most techniques, they can directly comprehend them without spending too much time. This is also the reason why the children of aristocratic families are often more powerful. It's why a family can last for so long.”

“So that's how it is.” Ethan couldn't help but sigh.

“Going like this, it will be difficult for ordinary cultivators to have a chance to stand out,” Ethan whispered.

Dean Garner nodded slightly, “That's true. Rogue cultivators who can make a name for themselves are usually very rare and unique. That's also the significance of Thunder Academy.”

Ethan was taken aback, looking at Dean Garner, and suddenly understood.

The existence of Thunder Academy indeed gave rogue cultivators an opportunity – an opportunity to get in touch with top-notch techniques!

However, Ethan soon felt a bit lost again.

“But this Thunder Academy… seems to only recruit a very small number of talented individuals, and the conditions are extremely strict.” Ethan frowned.

Dean Garner looked at Ethan and shook his head, “Those are inevitable conditions. After all, resources are limited. If everyone could come to the Thunder Academy to learn techniques, then nobody would be able to comprehend them.”

Ethan thought about it, it made sense.

Under the sky, other than Immortal Emperor Eden Garner, probably no one else could do this.

Take the Wilson family, for example, outsiders could not even glimpse, let alone comprehend their techniques.

“Of course, there are no absolutes. Some techniques still require comprehension even for descendants. It's just that the chances of success are greater. Like the Thunder Mystical Technique, or the Wilson family's life-and-death diagram,” said Dean Garner, changing the topic.
