Chapter 286 - 286: Secret Techniques
Fang Hong's expression was calm and unmoved. He took out his elite disciple identity token and easily passed through the teleportation gate, arriving inside Dragon Scripture Mountain.
The interior of Dragon Scripture Mountain was incredibly spacious, with dozens of circular stone pillars standing on the ground.
The surfaces of these stone pillars were carved with strange runes, emitting a faint white light that prevented the entire mountain interior from being too dim.
Fang Hong could tell at a glance that each stone pillar actually recorded a secret technique. All elite disciples were gathered around the pillars, selecting secret techniques suitable for their cultivation.
They only needed to copy the desired secret technique using their identity token.
Among these stone pillars, three stood out particularly.
These three stone pillars were much taller than the others, reaching dozens of feet, with more complex runes on their surfaces and brighter light.
Fang Hong knew without thinking that these three stone pillars must record the three most precious secret techniques of the Dragon Clan.
However, what puzzled Fang Hong was that there wasn't a single disciple lingering by these three stone pillars, nor was anyone trying to copy them.
Could it be that these three secret techniques could not be copied? Or were there some special requirements?
"Long Ren, you've also come to learn secret technique."
Just as Fang Hong was puzzled, a female voice came from the side. Fang Hong turned his head and saw that it was Long Wei.
Long Wei had cultivated in the Sky Dragon Pool for twenty days, and the Qi around her body became even more condensed.
She had successfully broken through to the Divine Transformation Early Stage realm, and her Qi was much stronger than before, making her entire aura much more stable.
Long Wei quickly walked up to Fang Hong, her eyes scanning him from top to bottom, then she teased, "Long Ren, you cultivated in the Sky Dragon Pool for a month, so why is your cultivation still stuck at the Late Stage of the Nascent Soul Realm?"
"Could it be that you didn't cultivate properly for that entire month and were just sleeping and being lazy in the pool the whole time?"
"That's because I cultivated a secret technique to conceal my Qi, and you just can't see it. In fact, I already advanced to Divine Transformation long ago," Fang Hong replied casually, his tone calm.
"Uh, you're really insidious, hiding your cultivation even here."
Long Wei was stunned after hearing this, looking at Fang Hong with a speechless expression.
Fang Hong didn't respond, instead turning his gaze to the three stone pillars standing not far away, and asked Long Wei in confusion.
"Those three stone pillars look unusual. Why haven't I seen any other disciples copying the secret techniques on them to learn?"
"Does the clan not allow disciples to learn the secret techniques on those pillars?"
"Oh, you mean those three stone pillars? Those are the three most advanced and powerful Secret Skills in our Clan, recording the Dragon Fist Secret Technique, Dragon Sound Secret Technique and Void Secret Technique respectively."
Long Wei followed Fang Hong's gaze and explained patiently.
"However, the difficulty of learning these three secret techniques is extraordinarily high, especially the Dragon Sound Secret Technique and the Void Secret Technique."
"I heard from the Elders in the Clan that besides those few Old Ancestors with exceptional talent and profound cultivation, over all these years, no Elder or disciple has truly managed to learn them."
"It's precisely because the learning difficulty is too great, and everyone knows they can't learn them, that no disciples try to copy the secret techniques from them to study."
Long Wei told Fang Hong everything she knew in detail.
After listening to Long Wei's explanation, Fang Hong's mind was suddenly enlightened. One of the stone pillars actually recorded the Dragon Fist Secret Technique.
Recalling the Dragon Fist Secret Technique he had learned in the Heavenly Profound Realm's Dragon Palace, he became even more certain that there must be some connection between the Dragon Palace in the Heavenly Profound Realm and the Dragon Clan of the Wilderness Continent.
"Long Ren, you wait. Once I successfully cultivate the secret technique on this stone pillar, I'll come find you for another spar."
"I've been feeling resentful about losing to you last time."
Long Wei remembered her previous defeat against Fang Hong. She glared at Fang Hong, then turned and left after saying this.
Fang Hong watched Long Wei's receding figure, shook his head with a smile, and didn't take Long Wei's challenge to heart.
Fang Hong walked directly towards the three stone pillars, wanting to personally see the mysteries of the Dragon Sound Secret Technique and the Void Secret Technique.
Upon reaching the stone pillars, Fang Hong began to condense his Divine Sense to investigate the Dragon Fist Secret Technique pillar.
The Dragon Fist Secret Technique on this stone pillar was identical to what he had learned in the Heavenly Profound Realm's Dragon Palace, both belonging to highly explosive offensive secret techniques.
This discovery further confirmed his previous conjecture.
The True Dragon expert who left behind the Dragon Fist Secret Technique in the Heavenly Profound Realm's Dragon Palace might have been a powerful being who originated from the Dragon Clan of the Wilderness Continent.
Since he had already learned the Dragon Fist Secret Technique, Fang Hong no longer wasted time on this stone pillar.
He turned his attention to the other two stone pillars, which recorded the Dragon Sound Secret Technique and the Void Secret Technique respectively, and began to investigate them carefully.
About half an hour later, Fang Hong finally finished examining these two secret techniques, feeling deeply shocked.
Only then did he finally understand why these two secret techniques were so difficult to learn.
To successfully cast the Dragon Sound Secret Technique, one must comprehend a trace of the Law of destruction, combined with the unique True Dragon Power of Dragon Clan disciples.
Once successfully cast, the caster's body would automatically emit invisible destructive sound waves.
The power of those sound waves was enough to destroy heaven and earth, and like the Dragon Fist Secret Technique, they belonged to highly lethal offensive secret techniques.
True Dragon Power was manageable; as long as one was a Dragon Clan disciple, True Dragon Power was contained within their body. However, trying to comprehend a trace of the Law of destruction was exceedingly difficult.
Looking across the entire Dragon Clan, probably only those Old Ancestors whose cultivation had reached the Mahayana realm could achieve it; young disciples couldn't even touch the threshold.
As for the void secret technique, its learning difficulty was even higher than the Dragon Sound secret technique. It required the caster to comprehend a trace of the Law of space to successfully cast it.
Once the Void secret technique was mastered, one could instantly teleport to any place within the range of their Divine Sense or any place they had previously visited, completely ignoring spatial barriers.
Fang Hong secretly marveled, these two secret techniques were truly powerful. If he could thoroughly comprehend them, his combat power would definitely rise to another level.
What surprised Fang Hong even more was that when he examined the Void stone pillar, he discovered that the mysterious runes carved on the pillar had some commonality with the runes he had seen in the Guangyin Array before.
However, the runes on the Void stone pillar corresponded to the Law of space, while the runes in the Guangyin Array corresponded to the Law of time.
Fang Hong keenly sensed that there must be some deep connection between the Law of time and the Law of space.
He immediately decided that after returning, he would compare and comprehend these two types of runes together, perhaps gaining new Divine Abilities from them.
Thinking of this, Fang Hong no longer hesitated. He immediately took out his elite identity token and meticulously copied all the runes on the three stone pillars.
Especially the runes corresponding to the Dragon Sound secret technique and the Void secret technique, which he copied flawlessly.
He was now eager to learn these two powerful secret techniques.
