Zhang Junbao's cultivation of the Na Yin Secret Technique was like riding a roller coaster, with ups and downs that even the Sitting Mountain Guest almost couldn't handle.

They had already successfully cultivated the Na Yin Secret Technique; all that was needed in the final step was to introduce the Lie Yuan Technique into Zhang Junbao's soul, and everything would be a success.

But at this very moment, an unexpected event occurred: the spirit of the secret technique was unable to enter Zhang Junbao's soul. Not only had the Sitting Mountain Guest never seen anything like it, but even the spirit of the secret technique itself had never witnessed such a scene before.

The secret technique created by Lie Yuan Technique, a powerful being surpassing the God King Level, was actually rejected.

Where does this leave Yuan's face?

Where does this leave the faces of the countless peerless geniuses on the Origin Continent who desperately cultivated but ultimately failed and perished?

The spirit of the secret technique, transformed into a purple-horned beast, looked at Zhang Junbao with eyes full of doubt and shock.

He couldn't understand why the man in front of him possessed another secret technique at the same level as the ' Lie Yuan Technique '.

This is merely one of the three thousand Universe Ocean, not the Origin Continent.

Even on the Origin Continent, the Lie Yuan Technique is an unparalleled treasure capable of unleashing a bloodbath.

It is enough to drive even a super being at the God King Level crazy. This is a heaven-defying ultimate technique. If the God King of Jin Zuo Sitting Mountain Guest Jin level, can cultivate the Lie Yuan Technique, his strength will definitely increase dramatically, and he will be fully capable of suppressing many other forces and avenging himself.

This is an unparalleled martial art capable of altering the power distribution on the Origin Continent and dominating a region.

The fact that this Universe Ocean possesses the Lie Yuan Technique ' is due to the God King, Sitting Mountain Guest. But where did Zhang Junbao obtain the secret technique comparable to the ' Lie Yuan Technique '?

"You're saying he possesses another secret technique on the same level as ' Lie Yuan Technique '? How is that possible? Lie Yuan Technique is a secret technique created by 'Yuan'."

If these words hadn't been told to the Sitting Mountain Guest by the spirit of secret arts, he would never have believed them, even if you beat him to death.

Yuan Ke surpassed even the God King, existing only in legends.

Legend has it that Yuan was even able to modify the Supreme Rule, and even the Origin Will of the Universe Ocean was utterly powerless before Yuan.

"I can't be wrong. He has successfully mastered the Na Yin Secret Technique, but I can't return to the original form of the technique because there is another force on him that is repelling me."

What's even worse is that my Na Yin Secret Technique seems to have been absorbed by that power, transforming into Na Yin Secret Technique of that 'Primordial' level.

The purple-horned beast's expression was one of utter shock; it was completely stunned by what it had just witnessed.

Don't you have your own Na Yin Secret Technique? Why are you trying to steal mine?

The purple-horned beast was also speechless. The Na Yin Secret Technique was created for it by its master, but it was forcibly taken over by the secret technique on Zhang Junbao's body, leaving its spirit of the secret technique homeless.

For so many years, he had wandered the world as a spirit of secret arts. He finally found a genius who could cultivate the Na Yin Secret Technique, and was finally able to return to his original self. But in the end, he was turned away. It was simply outrageous.

Just as the purple-horned beast and the Sitting Mountain Guest were completely confused about what was going on, Zhang Junbao slowly opened his eyes.

He could sense that, through the cultivation of the Na Yin Secret Technique, his willpower had definitely reached the level of Void True God.

Although he was still no match for those monstrous geniuses on the Origin Continent who had reached the level of Eternal True God Level at the level of Universe Master, he was already quite satisfied.

After receiving the inheritance of the Duan Donghe Lineage, Zhang Junbao's will had been cultivated to the peak level of the Universe Supreme Master. However, even this level of will was still difficult to withstand when facing a large number of World Beast using Soul Secret Technique.

However, when his will reached the Void True God Level, the threat posed by the World Beast to him diminished considerably.

When he slowly opened his eyes and saw the strange look on the Sitting Mountain Guest's face, he still didn't understand what was going on.

"Have I... succeeded in my cultivation? I can feel that my willpower has definitely been greatly enhanced."

"But why does my soul only contain the Na Yin Secret Technique, and not any real secret techniques?" Zhang Junbao asked, puzzled.

Upon hearing this, the Sitting Mountain Guest did not know how to respond.

The purple-horned beast, the spirit of the secret arts, couldn't help but speak up, "Because as the spirit of the secret arts, I never entered your soul, so of course you have no memories of the secret arts."

"So, I failed?" Zhang Junbao asked in surprise. He hadn't expected that Luo Feng could successfully cultivate the Na Yin Secret Technique, while he himself would fail.

But wasn't it said that the chance of death was extremely high if the Na Yin Secret Technique failed? How did I survive? Did the Sitting Mountain Guest protect my life?

The purple-horned beast shook its head and said, "No, you did not fail."

"You have successfully mastered the Na Yin Secret Technique."

Hearing the purple-horned beast say this, Zhang Junbao became even more confused.

"So, did I succeed or fail? I can't have succeeded only halfway."

"But that's the truth; you've only succeeded halfway."

Although you successfully cultivated the Na Yin Secret Technique, I was unable to enter your soul. Therefore, while you did not perish due to the failure of your cultivation, you also could not obtain this secret technique.

"I really didn't expect that there would be someone in this universe who could obtain another secret technique comparable to the ' Lie Yuan Technique '. How did you manage to do it?" The purple-horned beast asked its question, which was also what the Sitting Mountain Guest wanted to know.

"I possess another secret technique, how come I didn't know?"

Even Zhang Junbao was puzzled, as he himself did not know when he had obtained such a secret technique.

"I can sense that the secret technique within you is extremely powerful, possessing two extreme attributes: life and Destruction. Yet, these two attributes coexist peacefully within your body."

Logically speaking, life forms born from the Original Universe should not be able to control Power of Destruction that are completely opposite to the Life Origin, but you have done so. I think this is due to the secret techniques created by another kind of 'element' within you," the purple-horned beast said in confusion.

Upon hearing the explanation from the purple-horned beast, Zhang Junbao understood what the secret technique it was referring to was.

But this only made Zhang Junbao more puzzled.

"My ability to wield the Power of Destruction stems from the ' True Meaning of Taiji ' that I cultivate. However, the problem is that the ' True Meaning of Taiji ' was not created by 'Yuan,' but rather something I comprehended myself."

"How could you possibly comprehend a secret technique at the same level as 'Yuan'!" The purple-horned beast was shocked. It even suspected that Zhang Junbao in front of it was someone the Sitting Mountain Guest had sent to play a trick on it.

Did the Universe Master create the secret method for the 'Primordial' level?

Not only had it never heard of it, even the Sitting Mountain Guest had never heard of it, let alone the spirit of the secret art of " Lie Yuan Technique ".

Sitting Mountain Guest knew about the " True Meaning of Taiji " he was cultivating, after all, he had helped Zhang Junbao seized the Origin Universe Clone. However, Sitting Mountain Guest never expected that Zhang Junbao's " True Meaning of Taiji " was actually a supreme technique comparable to the " Lie Yuan Technique ".

This world is truly insane.

The Sitting Mountain Guest couldn't help but ask, " Junbao, when did you begin practicing your ' True Meaning of Taiji '?"

"It should be said that from the very beginning of my spiritual practice, I have been gradually perfecting the ' True Meaning of Taiji '."

"In the Huaxia of China, there are records that Chaos gave rise to Taiji, and Taiji gave rise to Yin and Yang. In my understanding, these so-called Yin and Yang are the Primal Universe Life Origin in the Universe Ocean and the Destruction Origin of the World Beast."

"It's actually a secret method evolved from Earth's civilization's understanding of the universe, revealing the most fundamental mystery of the Universe Ocean in a single sentence."

At this moment, the Sitting Mountain Guest was at a loss for words. The race he had personally nurtured from the Earth Lineage had actually given birth to a top-tier secret technique that even he envied.

Should I be happy, or blame myself for being blind and not noticing it for so long?

The profound meaning of ' Taiji ' that Zhang Junbao spoke of has actually been widely circulated in the Earth Lineage for a long time, but only Zhang Junbao has truly mastered it.

While others knew the contents of this secret technique, most of them simply regarded it as a way to improve their health, and it even became the preferred leisure and entertainment option for old men in the park.

If we calculate it this way, almost everyone in the Earth Lineage has come into contact with this secret technique to some extent. However, most people know that this path is not viable and have long since switched to other methods of cultivation.

A fleeting thought even crossed the Sitting Mountain Guest's mind: was it too late for him to learn the " True Meaning of Taiji " now?

At this moment, Zhang Junbao raised a question, "You said that the ' True Meaning of Taiji ' is a secret technique on the same level as the ' Lie Yuan Technique,' but why haven't I seen any great power in my practice so far?"

Zhang Junbao's " True Meaning of Taiji " requires extremely high talent, which is quite similar to " Lie Yuan Technique ". However, in terms of power, although it is relatively strong, it is not enough to be called heaven-defying.

If this is comparable to the " Lie Yuan Technique," then the " Lie Yuan Technique," created by "Element," must be incredibly rubbish.

In response, the purple-horned beast offered its own thoughts. "The secret techniques created by Yuan are not all the same. Although I don't know why your own secret techniques have reached this level, it is clear that your secret techniques are not perfect."

Based on your description, since you believe that the Yin and Yang mentioned in Taiji are the Primal Universe and the Destruction Origin the World Beast in the Universe Ocean, the two powers you currently possess are clearly far from the true primordial power. Your cultivation can only be considered as having stepped into the threshold; it is far from a significant achievement and naturally has little power.

"If you wish to perfect your secret technique, the most important thing is to acquire the power of these two fundamental sources."

The Purple Horned Beast itself is the spirit of the secret arts of the " Lie Yuan Technique," so its understanding of this level of secret arts is also very worthy of reference.

Zhang Junbao turned his head and thought for a moment, then understood the meaning behind the purple-horned beast's words.

In terms of the Life Origin, although his Origin Clone Universe has a diameter of 3.5 billion light-years, far exceeding the Miniature Universe of the Universe Supreme Master, it is obviously much smaller than the Primal Universe, which has a diameter of over 10 trillion light-years.

As for the Destruction Origin, it only absorbed one near- Second Order World Beast, which is pitifully small compared to the billion World Beast.

According to the Purple Horned Beast, if he wants to truly unleash the power of the " True Meaning of Taiji," he must continuously strengthen these two fundamental forces, making them the cornerstone of the " True Meaning of Taiji."

"Obtaining the Life Origin of the Primal Universe or the Destruction Origin of the World Beast is no easy task. Isn't there any other way?"

To obtain the Destruction Origin from the World Beast, he could only slay World Beast. As for obtaining the power of the Life Origin, did that mean Zhang Junbao would devour the Primal Universe?

"Each secret technique created by Yuan has its own method of cultivation. I only know the method of cultivating the Lie Yuan Technique; as for how to cultivate the other secret techniques, I can only guess."

Don't bother me unless it's something else. I'm not your teacher, and I have no obligation to guide you.

After saying that, the purple-horned beast transformed into purple starlight and disappeared, leaving Zhang Junbao and the Sitting Mountain Guest looking at each other in bewilderment.

Having finally seen a glimmer of hope to return to its original form, the purple-horned beast was ruthlessly shattered by Zhang Junbao. Clearly, it was not in a good mood; it was already quite remarkable that it had pointed out a cultivation method to Zhang Junbao.

However, the way the Sitting Mountain Guest looked at Zhang Junbao completely changed.

He never imagined that Zhang Junbao possessed another secret technique comparable to the " Lie Yuan Technique ".

"What are your plans next?" asked the Sitting Mountain Guest.

"Although I didn't obtain the ' Lie Yuan Technique,' I haven't come away empty-handed. At the very least, my willpower has been greatly enhanced. Now, as long as I'm not surrounded, I have the strength to fight against the World Beast."

"Moreover, didn't the secret spirit of the ' Lie Yuan Technique ' say that in order to perfect my ' True Meaning of Taiji,' I must acquire more primal power, whether it be the Destruction Origin or the Life Origin?"

"Therefore, I must go to the World Beast Nest."

"Alright, I know I can't persuade you otherwise. Even I didn't expect that your attempt to cultivate the ' Lie Yuan Technique ' would ultimately fail. Just remember, when you head to the World Beast Nest, don't be greedy and act rashly."

Now, the only guidance the Sitting Mountain Guest could offer Zhang Junbao was a word of advice.

He even brought out his most precious book, " The Lie Yuan Technique," but faced with this result, he didn't know whether it was good or bad.

The bad thing was that Zhang Junbao didn't obtain the " Lie Yuan Technique," but the good thing was that, after the confirmation of the spirit of the secret technique, it was certain that Zhang Junbao had already mastered a secret technique comparable to the " Lie Yuan Technique."

If that's the case, then it proves that the potential of " True Meaning of Taiji " is definitely no less than that of " Lie Yuan Technique ".

"I have successfully mastered the Na Yin Secret Technique. Since that's the case, I will fulfill my promise to avenge you when I am strong enough."

After saying that, Zhang Junbao left the Miniature Universe of the Sitting Mountain Guest and returned to his own Origin Clone Universe.

He needs to study the " True Meaning of Taiji " carefully; its secret techniques, comparable to the " Lie Yuan Technique," are definitely more powerful than they are now.

Within the Miniature Universe, the Sitting Mountain Guest looked up at the void, sensing the Origin Will there poised to erupt at any moment, and smiled, saying, "Did you already know about this?"

"The secret technique created by Yuan, I mastered it the moment I embarked on my cultivation journey. Where did this secret technique come from?"

Although Zhang Junbao claims that his " True Meaning of Taiji " was gleaned from Earth's civilization, those Sitting Mountain Guest are more inclined to believe that it was specially arranged by a super-powerful being for Zhang Junbao to obtain.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to explain why " The True Meaning of Taiji " is comparable to " The Lie Yuan Technique ".

The idea that one could comprehend the secrets of the Yuan level simply by listening to the words of a few sages from ancient Earth civilizations is utterly absurd. Why would the Sitting Mountain Guest believe such nonsense?

"What exactly are you plotting?" the Sitting Mountain Guest asked, looking at the Universe Origin Will above his head.

However, the Origin Will did not answer him, but instead caused the power in the void to churn continuously, staring intently at the Sitting Mountain Guest. If he violated any of the Origin Law, the Origin Will would suppress him immediately.

"Yuan, an existence surpassing the God King Level, is said to be able to even modify the Supreme Rule. I have been God King for so many years, yet I have never been able to touch the level of 'Yuan,' which is truly an absolutely invincible existence!"
