Chapter 150 Mysterious Heavenly Treasure Record
Next, we headed to Wuhun City for the finals, and everyone traveled there by carriage.
Teams 1 and 2 of Tian Dou went together, but to everyone's surprise, Team 2 had a lot more carriages. In addition to Yang Podi and his eight companions, there were also Teacher Anya and Teacher Li Xiang. These two had been with the team the whole time, and Teacher Li Xiang was the team's deputy leader.
Besides these ten people, there were also Yang Podi's grandfather Yang Wudi, maternal grandfather Niu Gao, Poison Douluo Dugu Bo, and uncle Niu Mang. Basically, people from both families went.
As for the residences of the two major families, some arrangements were made. The mother, Niu Jinfeng, returned to the Yu Clan under the pretext of visiting her parents' home, while the second grandfather, Yang Wushuang, secretly returned to the Po Clan, supposedly to protect the family.
Meanwhile, their father, Yang Zhentian, secretly followed the group to Wuhun City, acting as a covert protector. After all, almost all the elite juniors from both families had gone to Wuhun City this time, and any losses would be a huge loss.
Of course, there was also a special person accompanying the team, namely Shi Nian, the former leader of Canghui Academy. It is said that Shi Nian suddenly disappeared during the preliminary rounds of the Soul Master Competition, but later returned. Instead of leading Canghui Academy again, he resigned voluntarily.
Then, for reasons unknown, he suddenly repented and joined the Breaking Clan. Now he is an outer elder of the Breaking Clan, which is quite a significant event in the Soul Master world.
However, this is not surprising. Families that possess Title Douluo generally have relatively powerful forces. For example, the three upper sects all have countless outer disciples and elders. For instance, the Clear Sky Sect in the past had three to four thousand outer disciples. And the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect today has even more outer disciples. After all, those who can be considered inner disciples are only the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Soul Masters and a small number of direct descendants.
There are various rumors circulating outside, such as that he was caught off guard and captured when he ambushed the elite juniors of the Po clan, and was eventually forced to join the Po clan.
Such things are nothing new to these large families. Many families' outer sect elders are obtained in this way. It would be a pity to kill such high-level soul masters, but it would be easy to let them go back to their own territory if they were not killed. In the end, they are all brought under their control.
And so, the group set off for Wuhun City in a grand procession.
At this moment, there was only Shi Nian, Yang Podi, and Yang Wudi in a carriage.
Yang Podi spoke to Shi Nian: "Elder Shi Nian, according to Tang San's habits, given the distance between us and Tang San's two carriages, is it possible to simultaneously pull Tang San and me into the dream, with me controlling the dream?"
Shi Nian seemed to hesitate for a moment before speaking: "Young Clan Leader, your mental strength is too powerful, it may be quite difficult."
Yang Podi shook his head: "During this process, I will relax my mind and not resist your martial soul, but you need to be especially careful. Although Tang San is only a Soul Master, his mental strength has reached at least the level of a high-level Soul King, and may even reach the level of a Soul Emperor. Do not take any measures to harm him in the dream. Let everything take its natural course, otherwise it will be easy for him to discover you."
Shi Nian finally nodded seriously, confirming that he could do it. After all, after obtaining the Ten Thousand Year Illusion Flower, Shi Nian's mental strength had increased dramatically. In terms of mental strength alone, he was no weaker than a Soul Douluo.
Grandpa Yang Wudi seemed a little worried: "Podi, do you really have to do this? If people find out, it will probably cause a lot of trouble."
Yang Podi shook his head: "Tang San has something I want to obtain. That thing is of paramount importance and relates to the rise of our Po clan. We must take the risk no matter what."
"Moreover, Tang San has been spending every night with all his teammates recently. Both Flander and Liu Erlong are quite far away. This is our only chance now. Once we get to Wuhun City, it will probably be much harder to move around."
"Grandpa, you keep an eye on things from the side. If any experts approach, immediately notify Elder Shinian."
Perhaps because of Titan's hatred towards the Spirit Hall, Titan didn't provide protection along the way. Instead, Bai He kept scouting on the perimeter, and it seemed that he would call the police immediately if he encountered any danger. According to Yang Podi's estimation, Tang Hao should also be following the team on the perimeter.
In the following days, whenever Tang San meditated deeply, he seemed to easily enter a strange dream, a dream that seemed both real and illusory.
In his dream, Tang San seemed to have returned to his previous life when he was studying at the Tang Sect, or rather, when he was secretly learning the inner sect's secret techniques. He was very careful and worked very hard during the process.
For several days in a row, Tang San seemed to have the same dream. After waking up, he did not seem to feel anything unusual in his body. The things in the dream were also Tang San's biggest secret in his past and present lives. He had not said a word about them, not even to his closest friend, Xiao Wu.
During these past few days, Yang Podi, based on the plot of the anime he had seen in his previous life, disguised himself as an ordinary spectator and secretly observed what Tang San saw and heard in his dreams. In particular, he secretly recorded the various martial arts techniques Tang San practiced and the various hidden weapons he saw in his dreams, without deliberately disturbing him, but rather guiding him intentionally or unintentionally in the dream.
Just seven days later, Tang San seemed to have returned to normal and never had such dreams again, as if nothing had ever happened.
At this time, Yang Podi, based on what he saw in Tang San's dream, had already sorted out everything, including all of Tang San's secrets.
These things are mainly the Xuan Tian Bao Lu (Mysterious Heaven Treasure Record). It includes various martial arts manuals of the Tang Clan. The Xuan Tian Bao Lu records only six kinds of martial arts: the internal energy cultivation method Xuan Tian Gong (Mysterious Heaven Skill), the hand training method Xuan Yu Shou (Mysterious Jade Hand), the eye training method Zi Ji Mo Tong (Purple Extreme Demon Eye), the grappling method Kong He Qin Long (Controlling Crane and Capturing Dragon), the lightness method Gui Ying Mi Zong (Ghost Shadow Mistaking), and the method of using hidden weapons, Hundred Solutions to Hidden Weapons.
There is even the Clear Sky Sect's inherited technique, the Chaotic Cloak Hammer Technique, which Tang San obtained.
After Yang Podi recorded everything, he couldn't help but admire it: It truly deserves to be called a top-tier martial arts technique in the martial arts world, and it is indeed the foundation for Tang San's ascension to godhood. It is indeed profound and extensive.
Meanwhile, Shi Nian and Yang Wudi stared blankly at these things, swallowing hard. Yang Wudi finally understood why his grandson was so determined to subdue Shi Nian. These few cultivation manuals alone were priceless.
Yang Podi handed the cultivation manual directly to his grandfather: "Grandpa, don't pass on anything in this Xuan Tian Treasure Record for now. You can cultivate the Xuan Tian Gong first. The other cultivation methods are too conspicuous. I'll think of a way to do it later."
Immediately afterward, Yang Podi spoke to Shi Nian: "Elder Shi Nian, today's matter is of great importance. These are the secret techniques of the Haotian Sect that are not passed on to outsiders. Once these things get out, you will probably face endless pursuit from the Haotian Sect. I hope Elder Shi Nian will not make a mistake."
Shi Nian quickly said, "Young Clan Leader, don't worry. I know the importance of these matters. I swear on my Martial Soul that I will not let anyone know about what happened today, otherwise my Martial Soul will be shattered and I will die a horrible death."
Shi Nian wasn't stupid. He had done something so big, especially since it involved the secret techniques of the Haotian Sect that were not to be passed on to outsiders. If he made the slightest move, he would probably be killed to silence him.
Yang Podi nodded in satisfaction: "Elder Shi Nian, you can rest assured. Now you are an outer elder of our Po Clan. The Po Clan will do its best to cultivate you in the future. You will definitely have a glorious future. However, for now, we should all keep a low profile. Besides, you will also get a share of the treasures we obtained today."
Shi Nian quickly replied, "Young Clan Chief, you can rest assured. I, Shi Nian, will definitely do my best for the Po Clan and treat the Po Clan as my own home."
Upon hearing Shi Nian's words, both Yang Podi and Yang Wudi nodded in satisfaction: Shi Nian was indeed useful and quite pragmatic.
Yang Wudi couldn't help but speak up: "Podi, I've always been an elder of the outer sect of the Haotian Sect, how come I didn't know the Haotian Sect possessed these unique techniques? Also, when can we allow the core disciples of our clan to begin learning them?"
Yang Podi said calmly, "The Haotian Sect has been passed down for countless years, and Tang Chen is a genius that is only seen once in ten thousand years. It is normal that there are many secrets."
"As for these unique skills, our Breaking Clan will not be the first to take the lead. We can slowly train disciples after others have learned them."
Yang Wudi was still somewhat surprised: "But if everyone learns these unique skills, wouldn't we have no advantage at all?"
Yang Podi shook his head: "Among all the ultimate techniques, the Mysterious Heaven Skill is the foundation of everything. As long as the Mysterious Heaven Skill is not passed on to outsiders, even if others learn it, they can only learn the most superficial part and will not be able to reach the highest level. We just need to keep the Mysterious Heaven Skill. As for how to deal with it specifically, we'll think of a solution after the Soul Master Competition ends."
Hearing this, Yang Wudi nodded in satisfaction.
Yang Podi then spoke to Shi Nian again: "Elder Shi Nian, Tang San shouldn't be aware of what happened today, right?"
Shi Nian spoke very seriously: "Young clan leader, you can rest assured. Although I pulled Tang San into the dream, I did not cause any harm to Tang San or do anything excessive. Even if Tang San is aware of it, he will only think that he had a dream."
Yang Podi nodded in satisfaction. The next step was to find a way to make these techniques practiced openly and legitimately, so that they wouldn't become the first to be targeted.
After a twenty-day journey, the group finally arrived at their destination, Spirit City. To Yang Podi's surprise, the Spirit Hall did not send anyone to launch a sneak attack this time. Could it be that the addition of his grandfather and maternal grandfather, bringing the number of Title Douluos in the group to two, made them wary?
Just like in the original story, Yu Xiaogang seems to have left the team ahead of time and went to Wuhun City alone.
In the Papal Palace of Wuhun City, Yu Xiaogang and Bibi Dong, the former lovers, seem to be worlds apart in terms of status and strength, and even their appearances have become vastly different.
After all, one was the high and mighty Pope, who had reached the level of a Title Douluo and whose appearance was almost ageless, while the other was just a Great Soul Master who had been decadent for countless years and whose face was already full of vicissitudes.
Although Bibi Dong is known as the biggest traitor of the Spirit Hall, she is equally ambitious. Although she still has some affection for Yu Xiaogang, she did not expect that Yu Xiaogang would travel thousands of miles to the Spirit Hall to meet her alone, just to obtain the cultivation method of twin spirits.
Unless Bibi Dong is completely brain-dead, she will understand the threat posed by the Clear Sky Sect to her, and even more so, she will understand Tang San's potential and future threats. Therefore, she would never teach the cultivation method of twin martial souls.
Although Yu Xiaogang repeatedly assured Tang San that he would not become an enemy of the Spirit Hall in the future, it was simply unbelievable for a Grand Soul Master to say such a thing. Especially considering the decades-long feud between the two sects, coupled with the hatred of Tang San's mother, how could Yu Xiaogang so easily cover it up?
The result was that former lovers became enemies. Bibi Dong was furious and kicked Yu Xiaogang out of the Papal Palace.
The finals officially begin tomorrow, and Yang Podi will make his dazzling debut.
