The Teacher's Gift and Star Prison Secret Canon

Virtual Universe, Thunder Island.

Thunder Island is shrouded in mist all day long, and electric snakes constantly appear around the island.

Halfway up the mountain, in front of the temple belonging to the Nine Sword Venerable, Yang Wu's figure suddenly appeared out of thin air.

After nodding slightly to the two guards standing at the door, Yang Wu stepped into the magnificent hall.

The main hall inside the palace.

"Teacher!" Yang Wu suddenly appeared and bowed respectfully.

On the grand throne inside the main hall sat a figure dressed in an ancient blue battle robe.

"Oh?"

The Nine Sword Venerable slowly rose and descended the steps, his height gradually decreasing until he was almost the same as Yang Wu's.

"Have we arrived at Chaos City?" Nine Sword Venerable asked with a smile.

"I just arrived!" Yang Wu said with a smile, "While I was training outside, the clan sent strong people to protect me, which put a lot of pressure on me, so I came directly to Chaos City."

"Haha, you're getting better treatment than I am, your teacher!"

The Nine Sword Venerable said with a smile, "The strength of that Venerable Gui Yi is far greater than mine. However, it's not a waste of the clan's resources for Venerable Gui Yi to protect you."

In the mind of the Nine Sword Venerable, if Yang Wu could choose a Special Life Clone that defies the heavens, his strength after breaking through to the Universe Venerable would be enough to overpower the Venerable Gui Yi.

"Moreover..." Nine Sword Venerable continued, "This time, Venerable Gui Yi also killed Venerable Jueguang from the Zerg Alliance. The only pity is that Venerable Jueguang possessed the Clone Talent, so he didn't cause the Zerg Race to lose too many resources."

The territories of the Four Peak Races — the Machine Race, the Monster Race, the Zerg Race, and Humans—are adjacent to each other. If any of them wants to expand or avoid being invaded, they can only wage war.

This also gave rise to one of the most famous and dangerous places in the universe— the Outer-Region Battlefield.

Of these four races, the Zerg Race are the most cunning, employing numerous unpredictable tactics that have caused considerable trouble for the other three races.

For the Zerg Race, even if this assassination attempt fails, the cost to Zerg Race is extremely small, amounting to only the loss of the energy of one of Venerable Jueguang's Clone, which is at most the price of an Ordinary Heavy Treasure.

"Alright, let's not talk about this anymore!" The Nine Sword Venerable looked at Yang Wu and smiled, "It would be good for you to go and cultivate in Chaos City now!"

"The World Lord Level is an extremely important stage in the cultivation career of countless powerful individuals! There are countless cosmic geniuses who, while not particularly outstanding at the beginning of their cultivation, make rapid progress upon reaching the World Lord Level."

The Nine Sword Venerable said very seriously, "Since you have already decided to cultivate to the World Lord Level in Chaos City, as your teacher, I have also prepared a gift for you!"

"Gift?"

Yang Wu's heart skipped a beat, and he thought to himself, "The important matter has arrived!"

One of the reasons he came to see the Nine Sword Venerable was for this gift.

He currently has very limited wealth, so every penny he can save is a penny earned.

The Nine Sword Venerable beckoned to Yang Wu and said, "Come with me!"

"Yes!" Yang Wu quickly followed.

Following the wide corridor, Yang Wu and the Nine Sword Venerable soon arrived at an extremely spacious hall.

However, the hall was now filled with countless books of various materials, making the originally spacious hall seem somewhat cramped.

"Most of the strongest beings in the universe create their Self-Created Secret Technique. At your current cultivation speed, you'll probably reach that level soon!"

The Nine Sword Venerable looked around, then pointed to the large number of books of various kinds and said, "Although you have some wealth, the Time Palace is extremely resource-intensive, so I have prepared some secret techniques for you!"

"Some secret techniques?"

Yang Wu was stunned when he saw the countless books filling the hall. Even though he was somewhat prepared, he was still taken aback.

"Teacher... are these the secret techniques you mentioned?"

Yang Wu looked around.

The hall was extremely spacious, exceeding two hundred meters in both length and width, yet the secret manuals that the Nine Sword Venerable had prepared for him occupied the vast majority of the hall's space.

The hall was filled with bookshelves, displaying countless books—a truly vast collection.

"Some? More like a billion!"

"Haha... There are a total of 4,321 common secret techniques here, the vast majority of which were created by experts below the King-Level!"

"Don't be fooled by the sheer number of these manuals; most of them will only serve as a reference for you. Some complete sets are only worth a few hundred points, but I felt they were quite suitable for you, so I prepared them for you!"

The Nine Sword Venerable chuckled and said, "Although there are many of these ordinary manuals, they only amount to a few hundred million points when all of them are added together!"

"They encompass various categories, including research, combat, weapon manufacturing, and Self-Created Secret Technique. While their monetary value isn't exceptional, most have merit and should be of considerable help to you!"

"Hundreds of millions of points? That's all? Not that valuable?" Yang Wu was slightly taken aback.

Although he had billions of points, he would still feel extremely distressed if he had to spend hundreds of millions to buy these secret techniques.

Moreover, given Yang Wu's current level of knowledge, he probably wouldn't be able to select so many suitable secret techniques from the Virtual Universe Company's treasure trove for himself to learn from.

At this moment, the Nine Sword Venerable had already led Yang Wu to a desk.

The Nine Sword Venerable pointed to the four sets of secret manuals placed on the desk and said with a smile, "As for these four sets, their value is much more precious!"

Yang Wu looked at the desk and saw rows of books neatly arranged on it.

These books are divided into four sets, namely--

A set of nine volumes of research-type secret techniques, "Space-Time Essays"; a set of 36 volumes of combat-type secret techniques, "Black Hole Evolution"; a set of six volumes of "Star Prison Secret Canon"; and a set of six volumes of "Seven Changes of the Deriving God".

Looking at the four sets of secret manuals, Yang Wu quickly asked, "Teacher, what are these secret techniques...?"

<Space-Time Essays> is a research-based secret technique that Yang Wu has been cultivating, and the amplitude-based secret technique <Flame Crystal Nine Refinement Body> is an extremely important part of <Black Hole Evolution>, so he is naturally familiar with it.

As for the Seven Changes of the Deriving God, it was naturally created by the Golden Horned Tribe Elder Xirodo, while the Star Prison Secret Canon should be the 'Fire-Space' fusion technique that Yang Wu cultivated in the simulated experience.

These four secret techniques are all incredibly valuable.

Yang Wu had originally thought that he would be lucky to have even one set of the Star Prison Secret Canon, but to his surprise, the Nine Sword Venerable had prepared four sets of secret techniques for him.

Judging from the number of volumes in the secret manual, they are all complete sets!

The Nine Sword Venerable smiled and said, "You're surely familiar with <Space-Time Essays>, so I won't go into detail!"

"This <Star Prison Secret Canon> describes an extremely special cultivation path in the universe, the Path of the Beast God, which mainly cultivates the Fire and Space Fusion Law."

"The creator of this secret manual is an extremely ancient being among our human race, the Star Prison Demon Master. The Star Prison Demon Master has cultivated the Fire and Space Fusion Law to an extremely high level, and his strength is far greater than that of the Venerable Gui Yi you once met!"

"The Star Prison Demon Master?" Yang Wu was slightly taken aback.

The Star Prison Demon Master is the only one among the three Top Universe Overlord of the Human Race who cultivates the Path of the Beast God. Unexpectedly, what he cultivates is the Fire and Space Fusion Law.

The cultivation of the Path of the Beast God originated from the Eight Innate Beast Gods that existed in the early days of the universe, and now the inheritance has fallen to the first power in the Primal Universe, the 'Ancestral God Religion'.

The Ancestral God Religion is an extremely open sect. They do not participate in power struggles, do not need territory, and the core of the entire sect consists of only about three thousand people.

Three Ancestral Gods, Eight Beast Gods, Seventy-two Divine Generals, and Three Thousand Divine Envoys!

The Ancestral God Religion has spread its influence in countless places throughout the Primal Universe, absorbing powerful individuals from countless races.

If someone can master a lineage, they can become Outer Member of the Ancestral God Religion.

The inheritances of Divine Envoy Inheritance, Divine General Inheritance, and Beast God Inheritance differ, and their status within the Ancestral God Religion naturally varies accordingly.

The least promising Divine Envoy Inheritance are individual Inheritance Crystal. These Inheritance Crystal drift throughout the universe, being obtained by those destined to receive them.

The Divine General Inheritance are fixed in various places throughout the universe, occupied by countless powerful forces.

As for receiving the Beast God Inheritance, one needs to go to the Inheritance Land within the Ancestral God Religion with the Beast God Inheritance Token.

There are eight Path of the Beast God, namely 'Metal and Space', 'Wood and Space',... 'Wind and Time', 'Lightning and Time', and so on, which are eight paths of Fusion Law.

The Beast God Inheritance is divided into seven levels, taking the Fire-Space Beast God Inheritance as an example.

The first five levels are a fusion of some Law of Space and some Law of Fire, which deepen continuously.

The sixth level is the fusion of the entire Law of Space and the entire Law of Fire, forming the Fusion Law.

To comprehend the seventh level, one needs to grasp the extremely important 'Heart of the Beast God' in the Path of the Beast God, and then one can transform into a true Beast God, as if the Beast God were alive, with strength comparable to the Universe Master.

It is obvious that the 'Star Prison Demon Master' received the inheritance within the Ancestral God Religion through the Beast God Inheritance Token and has reached an extremely high level. He has completely comprehended the Fire and Space Fusion Law and is only one step away from transforming into a true Beast God.

"Yang Wu, you must possess exceptional talent in the Path of the Beast God to have become Black Warrior. This <Star Prison Secret Canon> should be very suitable for you!"

"As for the other book, <Seven Changes of the Deriving God>, it is also a top-tier martial art comparable to <Star Prison Secret Canon>, except that it follows the path of the Gold and Space Fusion Law."

"I originally only prepared the <Star Prison Secret Canon> for you, but I didn't expect you to comprehend the Sacred Stele of the Golden Horned Tribe. Your understanding of the Law of Gold is no less than that of the Law of Fire."

"This <Seven Changes of the Deriving God> was created by Xirodo, the creator of the Golden Horned Tribe Holy Stele. Although its power is slightly weaker than the <Star Prison Secret Canon>, it is comparable in terms of the realm of the Path of the Beast God!"

"Comparing the two, the Seven Changes of the Deriving God is easier to learn, while the Star Prison Secret Canon is more powerful. You can choose to cultivate one of them as appropriate."

"Disciple understands!" Yang Wu nodded earnestly.

Although Xirodo was nearly on par with the Star Prison Demon Master in terms of the realm of Law, the secret techniques he created were naturally inferior to those of the Star Prison Demon Master, who was Top Universe Overlord, due to the Golden Horned Tribe foundation of the Golden Horn Clan.

Pointing to the final <Black Hole Evolution>, the Nine Sword Venerable continued, "I prepared this <Black Hole Evolution> for you because of your cultivation of <Flame Crystal Nine Refinement Body>."

"You were able to master the second level of the <Flame Crystal Nine Refinement Body> in such a short time without relying on resources, which shows that you have an exceptional talent for this Amplitude Secret Technique. Although the <Star Prison Secret Canon> and <Seven Changes of the Deriving God> both contain matching Amplitude Secret Technique, they may not be as suitable for you as the <Flame Crystal Nine Refinement Body>. Therefore, I have also exchanged this <Black Hole Evolution> for you."

Looking at the four sets of top-tier secret manuals laid out on the table, Yang Wu couldn't help but feel extremely grateful to the Nine Sword Venerable.

He had been worried about various cultivation techniques, as both comprehending the Law and cultivating the Amplitude Secret Technique required a large amount of points.

Now, four top-tier secret manuals are laid out before him.

Unlike the ordinary secret techniques mentioned earlier, which are only worth a few hundred million points combined, Yang Wu could still afford to buy them if he wanted to.

The value of any one of the four sets of secret manuals laid out on the table was beyond Yang Wu's means.

Yang Wu looked at the Nine Sword Venerable and said, "Master, these secret manuals are far too valuable. This disciple only needs a portion of them!"

For example, the <Flame Crystal Nine Refinement Body> can be purchased individually for only 20 billion points, but the complete <Black Hole Evolution> set costs 100 billion points.

As for the secret manuals of the Path of the Beast God lineage, Yang Wu has already mastered one set.

The four sets of secret manuals combined exceeded hundreds of billions of points. Although Yang Wu had come specifically for the secret techniques, he felt somewhat embarrassed by the value of this gift.

"How?"

The Nine Sword Venerable smiled slightly and said, "Are you going to refuse the gift your teacher is offering?"

"Teacher, that's not what I meant!" Yang Wu quickly explained.

"Don't worry! The four sets of secret manuals I exchanged only cost 400 billion points. It's not a big expense for me!"

The Nine Sword Venerable chuckled and said, "Moreover, after taking you as my disciple, I reaped a great harvest in a Cosmic Secret Realm. Perhaps it was your luck that brought me here!"

"Disciple thanks Master!" Yang Wu said respectfully, bowing.

In reality, these secret techniques were nothing to the Nine Sword Venerable.

After all, even the most ordinary Heavy Treasure is worth more than ten trillion Hunyuan Unit.

But for Yang Wu now, these four secret techniques are of immeasurable value.

Even if 400 billion points isn't a huge expense for the Nine Sword Venerable, it's still an incredibly vast fortune.

He could not take the Nine Sword Venerable's careful selection of secret techniques for him, nor his extremely thoughtful consideration, for granted.

I only hope to repay you when I am stronger in the future.

The Nine Sword Venerable reached out to help Yang Wu up, smiling slightly, "I have already granted you access to the temple; you can now teleport directly to this hall!"

"Whether you take the manual to the Primal Secret Region or try to comprehend it here is entirely up to you, but you must not pass it on to anyone else!"

"Little guy, keep up the good work! Your teacher has always been looking forward to the day you can surpass me!"

After explaining these matters, the Nine Sword Venerable did not linger and disappeared directly from the hall.

Yang Wu was left alone, silently browsing the vast collection of books in the hall.
