After Shi Wenxuan finished speaking, he left, while Zhao Xing looked at the three items.

The Warm Bamboo, also known as the Wen Bamboo Box, can preserve many precious items and extend their shelf life.

It contains valuable resources to aid in the cultivation of Dragon Language.

For example, there's Dragon Breath Pill, a medicinal powder made from dragon scales; vocal cords soaked in a special liquid; and dragon's blood liquid used to coat the whole body.

Although the ingredients are precious, their usage is simple, consisting of internal and external application.

Back in the Ten Yang Grotto-Heaven, Zhao Xing had practiced the Kui Ox Thunder Roar. He didn't need anyone to teach him; he knew how to use it just by reading the instructions.

"The Rare Sound Dragon Stone is quite rare." Zhao Xing picked up one of the stones.

The moment the hand touched it, it began to vibrate involuntarily, emitting a unique frequency from the Rare Sound Dragon Stone.

Zhao Xing instantly felt dizzy and his chest tightened.

But the sound was very soft, almost inaudible.

If he hadn't been a top-tier Dao Body at the Third Grade, he wouldn't have been able to hear such a faint sound at all.

"The greatest sound is the silence. The sound emitted by the Rare Sound Dragon Stone has already exceeded the range that many Third-Rank Realm can hear." Zhao Xing couldn't help but show a look of shock.

Many professions involve the art of music, such as martial artists practicing sonic techniques, musicians playing war tunes, Ritual Cultivator using mantras, and Priest and sorcerers using spells.

In essence, they all use sound to perform magic and martial arts.

Even the Thunderclap of the Agricultural Official involves the Dao of Great Sound; the power of thunder, even if it doesn't directly strike the target,

A thunderclap is enough to shatter people and ghosts, scaring them to death.

Zhao Xing put down the Rare Sound Dragon Stone and then picked up the seven scrolls.

"Learning Dragon Language involves listening, reading, and writing. It encompasses three parts: intention, method, and spirit."

The seven scrolls in front of Zhao Xing all belong to the same series of paintings, "Ten Thousand Paths Dragon's Cry".

Why is it presented in the form of a painting?

The main difference is that the language of the Dragon Race is different from the script of the Great Zhou.

It not only includes left-right, up-down, and inside-out structures, but also spatial and temporal variations, and the amount of information it contains is also different.

Dragon Race are large in size, and their characters are also large. What they see as words are like pictures to Human Race.

"It is said that when the Profound Yellow World was first created, all things were in chaos and no beasts could make a sound. The most powerful true dragon let out a Dragon's Cry, and from then on, there was sound between heaven and earth, which became part of the rules of heaven and earth."

Zhao Xing sealed his memory palace, and now seeing these high-end items, everything seems novel to him.

"Let's start with the first painting, ' The Ancestral Dragon Chant,' which is a painting that directly points to the essence of the Great Sound."

Zhao Xing pulled out the binding rope from the scroll.

"Whoosh!"

Without the restraint of the binding ropes, the scroll opened automatically, slowly unfurled, and hovered two meters in front of Zhao Xing.

The scroll continued to extend, obscuring the sky above and the earth below, connecting left and right, eventually forming a sphere with Zhao Xing at its center.

Paint the Dao Star!

The pattern began to flow inside the star, and a three-dimensional image flashed before Zhao Xing's eyes.

He felt as if he were in an ancient, primordial world.

The sky was overcast, the earth was boiling, and the ocean was murky.

Countless creatures struggled between heaven and earth, roaring towards the sky.

However, they cannot make any sound.

Zhao Xing seemed to sense their emotions and couldn't help but roar loudly.

However, the world was still shrouded in a gray haze, as if there was an invisible barrier.

He found himself shouting at the top of his lungs, but he heard no sound at all.

Until one moment, Golden Light suddenly appeared between heaven and earth.

Sensing something, Zhao Xing looked in the direction of the Golden Light.

The dragon's head was enormous and majestic, as if cast from refined iron, and covered with a layer of tough scales that shimmered with a metallic luster.

The dragon's horns are thick and grow out from both sides of its forehead, resembling huge deer antlers, but even more rigid. The horns are covered with mysterious patterns, as if they contain ancient secrets of heaven and earth.

Long Qing was like a dazzling star, large and wide open, with deep, abyssal pupils that seemed to burn with flames and flash with lightning. His every glance exuded a chilling power.

The dragon's nose is broad, from which wisps of white vapor occasionally escape, resembling swirling clouds. When its mouth is wide open, sharp fangs can be seen crisscrossing, each as sharp as a sword, capable of easily tearing apart everything in the world.

"The Progenitor Dragon!" Zhao Xing was overwhelmed with excitement when he saw the dragon's head.

Unable to contain himself, he pounded his chest and roared. He followed the beasts, chasing after them in that direction like a madman, wanting to follow the Progenitor Dragon Creation.

After flying closer, Zhao Xing finally caught a glimpse of the Progenitor Dragon's full appearance.

The dragon's body is long and agile, its curves seemingly endless. The dragon's scales are closely arranged, each the size of a palm, with edges as sharp as blades.

Its scales are as golden as the sun, dazzling and radiating an aura of endless nobility.

The dragon has powerful claws on both sides of its body, each claw has five toes, and the tips of the toes are extremely sharp, like peerless divine Divine Soldier, capable of easily crushing rocks.

The muscles on the dragon's claws were bulging, full of explosive power, displaying its immense strength.

The dragon's tail is long and powerful, shaped like a giant fish tail, but covered with hard scales.

Every part of the Progenitor Dragon's body seemed to contain the rules of heaven and earth and be full of Dao essence.

Standing on the earth, the dragon's head is held high, and its Dragon Whisker sway.

The dragon's mouth opened, as if Golden Light was gushing out.

"!"

The first sound rang out, and the murky world suddenly became clear.

The voice was unforgettable to Zhao Xing, and then the whole world became bright.

All the beasts began to roar!

Zhao Xing also let out a roar, but it was quickly drowned out by the voices of the myriad beasts and the Progenitor Dragon, and he could not hear what he had shouted.

He roared desperately as he ran forward, eager to witness the creation of the Progenitor Dragon Creation.

Then at that moment -

"Whoosh~"

The scroll was rolled up, and everything blurred before Zhao Xing's eyes.

"This--"

Zhao Xing was deeply shocked and murmured to himself.

"The Preaching Painting can actually achieve this level of artistry."

Sound can cleanse the soul, or it can disturb it.

Many people get irritated by loud noises, while others fall asleep without realizing it while listening to a requiem.

Zhao Xing recalled the scene of his enlightenment just now, the crazy and angry emotions that filled his mind without him even realizing it.

"The Way of Great Sound, Creation of Heaven and Earth, truly befits the overlord race that ruled over the ancient era," Zhao Xing exclaimed with deep emotion.

Legend has it that the True Dragon Clan once roamed all over the Profound Yellow World, but they all disappeared later.

The so-called "Dragon Race" that exist today are actually inferior hybrids.

Those who are slightly more powerful, like Bai Yunwu, a Half-Dragon Person, are among the top races of the aquatic tribes.

Born stronger than ordinary Human Race, the direct descendants of the Bai Family are at the Ranked Realm- level, or even the Eighth Grade, from birth.

"The Ancestral Dragon Chant was created based on the murals in the Dragon Court Ancient Land. I wonder what mysteries it originally contained."

Zhao Xing recalled the process of enlightenment. He heard a syllable and the word "ga" was imprinted in his mind.

"Everyone hears a different interpretation; first, try to understand the rest of the picture."

Zhao Xing decided to first study the other six paintings. The "Ancestral Dragon Chant" painting was too profound, while the other six were relatively easier.

With time running out, Zhao Xing immediately threw himself into the cultivation process after obtaining the resources.

The first step is to take pills and medicinal liquids to strengthen and protect the body parts.

To utter the sound of a dragon is no easy feat; the dragon's body readily masters Dragon Language.

But the human body is more difficult to deal with.

Once the basic requirements are met, the next steps are listening, writing, watching, and speaking.

There are many checkpoints in the Dragon Court Ancient Land, where the rules are explained in the Dragon Language. If you don't understand the rules and break them, you won't even know how you died.

Even if I can't hear or understand anything, being able to see is fine too.

Even if someone of medium rank can't speak or hear the rules, they can still understand Dragon Language and translate them, so they won't be completely lost.

The ability to hear, see, speak, and write Dragon Language is an essential quality for a high-ranking person.

Zhao Xing is now mainly practicing to expand the number of Dragon Language words he knows in terms of pronunciation and meaning.

Mid-level Dragon Language proficiency is primarily measured by quantity, rather than strength.

Expanding the scale would be simple for Zhao Xing.

"Now!"

Zhao Xing unleashed his Pure Yuan Projection, and a series of top-tier clones appeared.

A total of over a thousand clones were released.

"I have the Ten Thousand Laws Straw Puppet, which allows me to multitask. I can master the intermediate Dragon Language quite quickly."

The mansion was filled with books, and Zhao Xing began to frantically absorb knowledge of the Dragon Language.

For Zhao Xing, who was already Third Grade official, mastering the form, meaning, and spirit (method) of the middle-level Dragon Language was a piece of cake.

He already had a foundation, at the intermediate level 1.

They simply lack systematic instruction and time to hone their skills.

Now there is a large amount of systematic information here, and he can use this method to cultivate.

"One group of clones is dedicated to watching, another group to writing, and yet another group to listening, while the main body is only responsible for speaking at the very end, which is to Dragon Language Art Incantation."

Zhao Xing's plan was clear: although there was only one set of cultivation resources, his clone was unable to use Dragon Language due to structural issues.

But listening, writing, and reading are still fine.

"Start!"

Zhao Xing's thousands of clones appeared in various parts of the mansion.

A clone held the scrolls and carefully examined them. The six scrolls depicted Dragon Race with the Five Elements Wind-Thunder, some fighting, some teaching young dragons, and some playing in groups.

Each painting contains a deconstruction of the meaning conveyed by the activities of the Dragon Race.

At the same time, the vibrations emitted by the Rare Sound Dragon Stone contain the influence of sound on the Five Elements, which is to understand the Way of Great Sound from the perspective of the Five Elements.

To analyze the essence of the Tao.

The true self occasionally comprehends the "Ancestral Dragon Chant" and senses the profound Dao essence within it.

As the saying goes, aim high and you'll achieve something.

Although I don't fully understand "The Ancestral Dragon Chant," I can still gain something from immersing myself in it often.

The clones solidify the foundation of low-to-mid-level Dragon Language, while the main body comprehends the ultimate Dao.

In addition, he had the guidance of the expert Shi Wenxuan.

Zhao Xing's cultivation speed is terrifying.

"Advancing to a minor rank every three days?"

Nine days passed, and Shi Wenxuan gradually sensed Zhao Xing's special nature.

"His progress is surprisingly fast."

"The Ten Thousand Laws Clone is of immense help to him."

Shi Wenxuan had seen the Ten Thousand Laws Clone before, and he had taught him how to cultivate the first and second levels of the Derivation God Art.

However, these two methods were clearly more effective on Zhao Xing.

"No wonder Heaven Derivation King dared to say that."

Shi Wenxuan's interest was also fully piqued.

When teachers teach students, it is more interesting when the students are quick to understand.

If you encounter an idiot, forget about the fun of teaching; you'll be lucky if you don't get so angry you die.

One month later, somewhere in Xiao Mountain.

"Zhao Xing ~"

"Zhao Xing ~ Come to Xiao Mountain Dragon Spring ~"

Come to Xiao Mountain Dragon Spring quickly!

Shi Wenxuan activated Dragon Language, his lips vibrated, and strange ripples appeared in the air.

Bat Dragon Language is a very low-frequency form of Dragon Language.

To create a positive learning environment, starting from the third day, Shi Wenxuan and Zhao Xing communicated using Dragon Language 2.

"Gentlemen."

Zhao Xing's figure quickly appeared in front of Shi Wenxuan.

"Did you call me?"

Shi Wenxuan smiled slightly, "That's right, the Bat Dragon Language is already at the mid-level ninth rank in the Dragon Language."

"The fact that you can come here proves that your intermediate Dragon Language has reached level nine."

Zhao Xing humbly replied, "It's all thanks to the teacher's excellent instruction."

Shi Wenxuan said, "You are exceptionally talented. I have never seen anyone complete the training of intermediate-level Dragon Language in just one month."

"However, the advanced training that follows will not be so easy."

"You can have your clone pause for a while and concentrate all your energy on tackling the higher-level Dragon Language."

"Yes." With a thought, Zhao Xing sent all his clones to Xiao Mountain Dragon Spring.

As the clone was taken into the Pure Yuan Space, the Fate Soul naturally returned to the Sea of Consciousness.

Shi Wenxuan stretched out his finger and drew golden lines in the air.

As he wrote, he said, "What I am about to teach you is the Dragon Language, and specifically, the Dragon Language..."

A very important type of spell.

Zhao Xing listened quietly. The Dragon Language system was vast, and ninety percent of it had no magical effect.

for example:

"Let's go play in the sea."

"Have you eaten today? What did you eat?"

"Bring me some food from Dragon City."

Learning this kind of Dragon Language is not very effective; it only serves a communication purpose.

"The Dragon Language that can truly be called incantations is all high-level Dragon Language." At this point, Shi Wenxuan began to switch back to normal Human Race language and chat with Zhao Xing.

"For example, listen carefully to the following passage."

As soon as he finished speaking, Shi Wenxuan's body suddenly swelled up, and a coiled dragon appeared behind him.

His expression turned cold, and his eyes were filled with murderous intent.

"Ang ang ang ang~~"

V

A series of Dragon's Cry roars and howls appeared.

Zhao Xing felt as if he were being stared at by a giant dragon. He sensed a terrifying aura emanating from Shi Wenxuan, as if the primordial energy was pressing in like a vast ocean, distorting even the light in the space around him. His body trembled uncontrollably.

"Crack crack crack~" Zhao Xing felt his golden bones constantly rubbing against each other, as if they were about to melt away, and the pain came from his bone marrow.

Without a doubt, Shi Wenxuan possesses the strength of a first-rank expert.

Because he studied the Dragon Language, Shi Wenxuan, a master of Ritual Cultivator, still possessed immense destructive power even outside the Great Zhou territory.

"Tsarcasm!" With the appearance of a single syllable, all the strange phenomena around Shi Wenxuan disappeared.

Zhao Xing also returned to normal, panting heavily.

"Sir, what kind of Dragon Language Art spell was that just now?" Zhao Xing couldn't help but ask.

"The Death Curse among the Nine Great Spells of the Dragon Court, the ' Dragon King Bone Removal Curse '!"

"It was created by the Dragon Emperor 'Jie' and was specifically used to execute those disobedient King Grade Reverse Dragon and evil dragons."

"The Dragon King Bone Removal Curse?" Zhao Xing suddenly realized, no wonder he felt like his bones were about to fall apart.

However, Shi Wenxuan clearly did not unleash his full power.

The final "whoosh" interrupted the incantation to stop the sound.

If he were to actually use it, Zhao Xing would be dead.

Shi Wenxuan was just letting him experience this kind of power.

"The Dragon King Bone Removal Curse I cast is not the complete version either," Shi Wenxuan said. "No one knows what the complete version looks like."

"After all, there are no true dragons left in the world."

"If you feel a similar aura in the Dragon Court Ancient Land, don't hesitate, run away immediately."

Shi Wenxuan said, "When the Dragon King Bone Removal Curse in the Dragon Court, its power will be exceptionally great. Even a first-rank martial artist will have their bones removed and die from their body exploding."

The rules of heaven and earth in the Dragon Court are different from those in the outside world, and the power of incantations in the Dragon Court Ancient Land is greatly amplified.

"Yes, I've got it." Zhao Xing listened obediently; this was a matter of life and death, and he remembered it firmly.

"Of the nine great spells, the Great Zhou possesses three. Outside Forces, such as Sect Realm, the Southern Barbarians Eastern Ying, and the royal courts of Japan, also possess them."

There are four in total.

"The Great Zhou and they have two overlapping things, including the Dragon King Bone Removal Curse and the Dragon King Heart Carving Curse."

"The other one that the Great Zhou possesses is the Dragon King's Soul Refining Curse."

"Doesn't our dynasty possess only death curses?" Zhao Xing asked.

"Not bad." Shi Wenxuan nodded. "Your current cultivation level is too low. I can only let you feel its power slightly, and you'll run away as soon as you see it."

"There are many safe places in the Dragon Court, whose Magic Array can withstand the power of the Death Curse. If you see any, you should run to those places."

With the opening of the Dragon Court Ancient Land, many forces will be involved, making it very dangerous.

Shi Wenxuan was teaching Zhao Xing how to save his life first, and then they would talk about other things.

"Now I will teach you the rest of the important spells."

Shi Wenxuan switched to Dragon Language again. His mouth suddenly widened, his vital energy surged, and he let out two long Dragon's Cry.

Zhao Xing vaguely saw nine dragon shadows circling around Shi Wenxuan.

"Sir, what kind of spell is this?"

Shi Wenxuan switched back to the Human Race language. "This is the unsealing spell."

"After you enter the Dragon Court Ancient Land, try this spell in each place you visit."

"Perhaps it will unlock some treasure trove."

Zhao Xing pondered, "Teacher, the Dragon Court isn't necessarily all treasures. Won't this open up some dangerous places?"

For example, government agencies or similar organizations.

Shi Wenxuan shook his head and said, "There are many kinds of unsealing spells. As I just said, this is the Treasury Unsealing Spell."

"Dragon Race do not use the Treasury Unsealing Spell when imprisoning criminals or in dangerous forbidden areas; they use other types instead."

"Of course, the spell is only one of the conditions for activation. In higher-level places, the Dragon Race's identity, credentials, and the spell are all indispensable."

"Even if you accidentally recited the spell correctly, you have no power, no identity or credentials, and it's impossible for you to release any demons or monsters."

Zhao Xing nodded.

Dragon Race are an intelligent race, at least the true dragon race is.

The opening of the Great Zhou's treasury also requires a person with a specific identity, a token, and finally, the casting of a spell.

Back when Ye Yukong was handling government affairs, the Sovereign Treasury required his personal presence as the Prefect to open it.

Dragon Race also have different ranks and statuses, with the Dragon King being one of the ranks of Dragon Nobles.

The Dragon Race was once a prosperous and thriving civilization; that vast and lost world has yet to be fully discovered by humankind.

Shi Wenxuan said, "If there is an opening spell, there is also a sealing spell. This is also required in some checkpoints of the Dragon Court."

"Besides these two main categories, there are also Edict Art and spells."

"It can mobilize some of the ancient powers left over from the Dragon Court."

"Besides these, there are also offensive, defensive, and support spells, but you don't need to learn those."

Zhao Xing nodded. As for the other types, the Human Race's own spells and secret techniques were Wishful use and more powerful.

There's no need to learn it.

The main subjects are three categories.

The first step was to unseal the seal; the second was to seal it off; and the third was to issue an imperial edict.

Of course, even these three categories represent only the tip of the iceberg in Dragon Race culture.

It is impossible to completely avoid the risks, but with only three years left before the start, Shi Wenxuan must focus his teaching on Zhao Xing.

Once December of the thirty-seventh year of the Jingxin Calendar passed, the imperial court issued a new almanac.

The third emperor of the Great Zhou, Ji Mingjing, changed the era name to "Great Governance Era".

The reforms of the new social organizations, which lasted for more than 300 years, have finally come to an end.

Zhao Xing also took some time to read the official gazette issued by the court.

However, since his memories were sealed, he didn't feel anything.

They even had the thought that "finally, the Taiping Granary, and we can relax a little."

However, intelligence from the Military Realm reveals that small-scale skirmishes are still occurring along various borders of the Great Zhou.

The devastating consequences of the Liang King Rebellion will not end in a short time.

Because of the Liang King incident, all the territories that New Splendor Era conquered were taken back by the Southern Barbarian Royal Court, and even the scale of the Nine Heavens Responding Origin Prefecture returned to the level at the beginning of the Pacifying Barbarians War.

At this point, the Southern Barbarians dared not continue and still maintained a buffer zone of thousands of miles.

However, minor frictions and probing still occur.

In addition, the chaos among the East Sea Aquatic Clan continued. Under Emperor Jing's orders, the three major aquatic chieftains—Bai, Ao, and Tang—carried out a sustained high-pressure purge of the outer waters of the East Sea.

However, for the inland areas, there was no war in the East Sea, and trade routes began to gradually recover.

In the first year of the Great Governance Era era, Lüliang Province was also renamed "Fu Province" because of the many hills within its territory.

The original Liang King City was destroyed in the war. After reconstruction, it was renamed Fubu Commandery, and its administrative level was directly downgraded from the capital to a county. Many counties that were cut off were brought under the direct control of the imperial court.

King Lü also suffered a great misfortune.

Because of the Liang King Rebellion, the King of Lü failed to play a supervisory role and was directly stripped of his fiefdom, reduced to the rank of Marquis.

Fiefdoms, Vassal, and armies were all drastically reduced. The vacated areas were all placed under the direct control of the imperial court.

The original Lü King City was renamed Fucheng, and the Lüwang Mansion was moved to a nearby satellite city for the Lü clan to live in.

"There are demotions and promotions. Lu Yuanwei, a direct descendant of King Lu, is still in charge of the Divine Thunder Army, but he has been promoted to First-Class Marquis, which is the same level as his father." Zhao Xing couldn't help but smile.

Lu Yuanwei was quite famous in the early stages of the Pacifying Barbarians War.

At the time, Zhao Xing and the others planned to follow Lu Yuanwei around and make a living off him.

However, plans later changed.

Only Xia Jing continued fighting, while Zhao Xing, Long Xiao, and Chen Shijie all withdrew.

"The changes in twenty years are truly remarkable."

Zhao Xing put the intelligence aside and continued to focus on his cultivation.

Immersed in cultivation, unaware of the passage of time, in the first year of the Great Governance Era era, Shi Wenxuan's other students also left one after another.

Because in the last two years, they also need to prepare for other things.

Since Zhao Xing began learning the Upper Dragon Language Art, he has also started learning with the other students of Shi Wenxuan.

The Lu siblings, Lu Manman and Lu Xiuyuan, who stayed the longest, were assigned to a group with Zhao Xing.

Originally, the Lu siblings didn't pay much attention to Zhao Xing. When Zhao Xing came to ask for advice, they were in the mood to guide a junior rather than to have a friendly competition.

But things gradually changed.

April of the first year of the Great Governance Era.

Lu Xiuyuan said with some surprise, "Zhao Xing, you've mastered twelve of the major categories of Unsealing Spell? That's pretty fast."

"You can have a bite to eat with us, brother and sister now."

June of the first year of the Great Governance Era.

"You want to learn about the ' Eastern Dragon Sealing Art '? Shouldn't that be learned after mastering the first four sealing techniques?"

"What? You've already mastered the first four?"

August of the first year of the Great Governance Era.

"Brother, am I still half asleep? How come I woke up to see Zhao Xing performing the ' Dragon Spring Sealing Art '?"

"I only slept for three days, but he made me feel like I slept for thirty years!"

Lu Xiuyuan exclaimed, "You read that right, yes, he has already mastered sixteen sealing techniques."

In the twelfth month of the first year of the Great Governance Era, Zhao Xing mastered four of the four types of Edict Art and spells.

At this moment, Lu Xiuyuan and Lu Manman looked at Zhao Xing with strange eyes.

"Brother Zhao, have you been getting extra help? How come you're progressing so fast?"

"A monster, a monster!" Lu Manman exclaimed. "We've studied for twenty years and we've only mastered three kinds of Edict Art."

Zhao Xing smiled slightly, and then Heaven Derivation King appeared behind the two of them.

"Everyone, come with me."

Lu Xiuyuan felt offended when someone grabbed his shoulder and broke free, saying, "Who the hell are you? You think you can just go like that?"

Heaven Derivation King took out a token engraved with the word "fate".

"Hiss~"

Lu Xiuyuan immediately knelt down. "I'm sorry, sir, I was rude just now."

Heaven Derivation King snorted, "Young man, don't be so hot-tempered. Fine, I'll let you off this time."

Greeting the mother of the Heaven Derivation King? It's only because the Heaven Derivation King has a good temper that he would have shown Lu Xiuyuan what royal majesty is.

"Thank you so much." Lu Xiuyuan stood up shakily.

The two siblings obediently followed Heaven Derivation King to receive the 'gag spell'.

When they returned, they became obedient and docile.

Even their attitude towards Zhao Xing became much more respectful.

December 25th, the first year of the Great Governance Era era.

Heaven Derivation King and Shi Wenxuan appeared in the mansion, at which point Zhao Xing, who was cultivating while wrapped in a painting, stopped.

"Sir, Your Highness."

A hint of reluctance appeared on Shi Wenxuan's face. "Zhao Xing, your year of special training has come to an end."

"Is it over?" Zhao Xing was taken aback. "But sir, I still feel like there's so much more to learn."

The more Zhao Xing learned, the less he felt he knew.

"Heaven Derivation King and I discussed this for several days," Shi Wenxuan said. "If you continue cultivating, the improvement effect will not be as good as cultivating other spells."

"Therefore, ending it at this time is the best option."

As Fate Officials, Heaven Derivation King was able to deduce where Zhao Xing would be most suitable to spend the next year and a half.

He was the authority in this regard, and although Shi Wenxuan was reluctant, he could only stop the special training for the time being.

"Yes." Zhao Xing was also somewhat reluctant, but he trusted Heaven Derivation King.

By reviewing what I've learned, I can also discover that there are still many areas where I can improve my own spells.

"Zhao Xing, say goodbye to your master," said Heaven Derivation King. "He hasn't stopped using the Spirit Awakening and Mind-Calming Techniques on you all year."

"Others don't get this kind of treatment."

Yes, Zhao Xing did receive special treatment.

His speed of comprehension was terrifying, partly due to his own abilities and partly due to Shi Wenxuan, a first-rank Ritual Cultivator.

"Zhao Xing thanks you, sir. Please take care of yourself." Zhao Xing immediately bowed deeply.

Shi Wenxuan graciously accepted the bow, stroked his beard and smiled, "Alright, you can come to my place to listen to my lectures again when you have time."

He was very happy to teach Zhao Xing.

It's like watching a cultivated seedling Flourishing Growth and healthy.

"However, you'd better come earlier. I'm not much younger than Heaven Derivation King, and I don't have much time left."

At this age, they have nothing to be afraid of about death.

"Yes, thank you, sir." Zhao Xing bowed again.

After bowing three times, Heaven Derivation King led Zhao Xing away.

Zhao Xing was the fifth-to-last student to leave Shi Wenxuan's class.

He arrived late, but he wasn't the last to leave.

After leaving the Holy Word Institute, Heaven Derivation King led Zhao Xing through the Blazing Fire Passage back to the Daoyuan Continent.

Because their next stop is the headquarters of the Mystic Heaven Academy.

"Metaphor~"

As Zhao Xing left Tianyong Province, his brows twitched slightly.

"Your Highness, I'm going inside to rest for a while."

Go ahead.

Zhao Xing went to the other end of the cabin, closed the door, lay down on the specially made ritual bed, and closed his eyes to fall asleep.

Inside the memory palace.

"Holy crap, the Shang Tang Token! The Shang Dynasty's Yin-Shang Royal Ship that traverses the realms of Yin and Yang!"

"There was actually one of these during Emperor Jing's reign?"

Upon reviewing his memories, Zhao Xing immediately noticed something unusual.

"This ship can not only travel to the extremes of the Yin Realm to find precious plants, but it is also a key item for the resurrection of Yin Spirit in later generations."

"It never appeared during the reign of Wu Emperor, yet it's in the hands of Heavenly Yang True Lord?"

Zhao Xing felt like he had struck Big Treasure.

This ship appeared during the Spiritual Energy Revival period, when it emerged from the Void Land.

It is the key to the resurrection of the Yin Spirit.

I originally thought it had always stayed in the Void Land, but I didn't expect it to appear at this time, and it was even captured by Heavenly Yang True Lord!

"Wow, Grandmaster, all that incense you offered wasn't for nothing," Zhao Xing exclaimed.

Now he has even more reason to become the Grand Minister of Agriculture.

"I have to keep an eye on it; I absolutely can't let it get lost," Zhao Xing thought to himself.

The fact that they hadn't heard of it during Wu Emperor's reign proves that the ship was later lost.

Therefore, it entered the Void Land.

It only reappeared after the Spiritual Energy Revival.

Continue browsing through memories.

"Huh? Shi Wenxuan? He's not just in the top three, he's the number one, Dragon Language Ritual Cultivator!"

"He mastered the Dragon King Bone Removal Curse, the Dragon King Heart Curse, and the Dragon King Soul Tempering Curse all by himself."

"Among the later Dragon Language Ritual Cultivator, none were able to master all three at the same time."

"No wonder I learned so quickly when he taught me."

"I really should go look for him again later, oh no, I should ask him to come out of Tianyong Province," Zhao Xing thought to himself.

He didn't want to go back to Abundance City; the memory sealing process was quite troublesome each time.

"It's almost been two years since the Great Governance Era. Is Heaven Derivation King bringing my Mystic Heaven Academy's main campus with him?"

"That's good, it aligns with my plan," Zhao Xing thought to himself. "My main purpose in going to the Mystic Heaven Academy is to study the reform Transformation of Seasons Art!"

"We need to cultivate both internal and external training methods."

"Especially the Transformation of Seasons Art concerning dragons," Zhao Xing recalled.

"Shi Wenxuan has already taught me the three great spells, but I can't comprehend them; I can only memorize their forms."

"However, if I can transform into a dragon through the Transformation of Seasons Art and then Dragon Language Art, I might be able to master the nine great spells that I have never been able to master!"
