Chapter 1390 Han Zexian's Legacy
1390 Han Zexian's Legacy
After learning the technique, Kulas immediately sat down to cultivate.
"Give me a few days," he said before closing his eyes and meditating.
While they waited for him, Ren Xia suddenly spoke to Tian Yang through divine sense, 'Hey, there's something I'd like to talk to you about.'
'What is it?' Tian Yang looked at her.
'There's this technique that I really want to learn, but I only managed to learn its name. Do you think you can try learning it for me? Of course, I will compensate you properly.'
'I don't mind.'
To Ren Xia's surprise, Tian Yang agreed to help her without any trouble. In Tian Yang's mind, he wasn't losing out on anything since he would get paid to learn a new technique.
'Thank you! It's only two days from here.'
'You can thank me after I learn the technique since it's not guaranteed that I will learn it.'
Tian Yang notified Kulas about their plans before leaving the scene with Ren Xia.
Two days later, they arrived at another stone sword.
'The name of this technique is Ethereal Blossom Sword Dance.' Ren Xia said to him, as it might help him understand the technique a little faster.
Tian Yang nodded and started studying the stone sword shortly after.
Two weeks later, the stone sword collapsed, signifying that someone had successfully learned its technique.
Ren Xia's body trembled with delight when she saw this. As they made their way back to Kulas, Tian Yang transferred the technique to Ren Xia.
"What do you want for payment? If there's anything you want, I will try to acquire it," said Ren Xia.
Tian Yang pondered for a moment before responding, "Does any kind of payment work? What if I want you to do me a favor?"
"That is fine, too."
"Then can I save this payout for a later date when I need to use it? I cannot think of anything right now."
Ren Xia reached for her spatial ring and retrieved a badge from it, handing it to Tian Yang the next moment.
"This is my medallion. You can keep it until you can think of something."
"Thanks."
"I should be the one thanking you." Ren Xia showed him a beautiful smile, one that felt natural and genuine.
When they returned to Kulas, he was still in mediation. As they got closer, they could sense Kulas' aura more clearly, and it was incomparably stronger than before.
Kulas opened his eyes when they landed, greeting them with a smile, "Welcome back."
"How do you like the technique?" Tian Yang asked him.
"I couldn't have asked for anything better. This technique suits my physique perfectly, as if it was created for me."
He turned to look at Ren Xia and asked, "So, what kind of technique did you smooch off my brother?"
Ren Xia frowned at his choice of words and sneered, "Unlike a certain someone, I am going to pay for my technique with something that's actually of value."
"That's natural. You're just an annoying bitch leeching off him while I am his sworn brother."
Two of them started arguing with each other at that point.
Sometime later, Tian Yang asked, "What should we do now?"
"I don't need anything else from this place, so it's up to you," said Kulas.
"I will have to regroup with my family soon so I have to leave." Ren Xia sighed.
"I would like to learn more sword techniques, but I am also interested in the other trials. Unfortunately, we don't have a map of this place."
Hearing his words, Ren Xia retrieved a piece of jade slip from her spatial ring and handed it to him.
"This is an interactive map of this place, so it's constantly being updated with new information. Everyone from the Immortal Clans has one—expect this useless idiot over here who came to this place alone." Ren Xia said as she glanced at Kulas.
"Oh? In that case, you don't need to give me yours, since I have Gu Lim's spatial ring."
He looked inside, and sure enough, there was the jade slip.
"This is very helpful! Thank you!" Tian Yang was delighted after seeing the information within the jade slip. Their biggest headache was instantly solved by it.
"W-Wait a minute. You have Gu Lim's spatial ring? You know his family is tracking his location, right?" Ren Xia said, wondering how the Immortal Gu Clan hadn't tracked him yet.
"You don't have to worry about that since I got rid of the tracker long ago," Kulas said in a prideful tone. As a young master from the Immortal Clans, he knew the way their families operated and that Gu Lim would have a tracker on him."
"Is that so…"
Over the next several months, Tian Yang followed the map in the jade slip and learned as many sword techniques as he could. Ren Xia continued to follow them until she had to leave a few weeks into their journey.
While Tian Yang learned sword techniques, Kulas spent his time mastering the Great Mammoth Body Refinement technique. Once Tian Yang was satisfied with the techniques he'd learned, he started training them on magical beasts. Even though everyone in the tomb was limited to peak Spirit King, there were magical beasts at the Spirit Emperor level.
However, Tian Yang had Gu Lim's treasures and learned several powerful techniques, allowing him to fight even early-
level Spirit Emperor magical beasts with ease.
In the blink of an eye, another year passed.
During this time, Tian Yang completely solidified his cultivation and increased his proficiency with his new techniques. If he were to encounter the Gold and Money Bandits in his current state, he would be able to wipe them out with little to no effort.
Kulas managed to increase his body size through the Great Mammoth Body Refinement technique, allowing him to grow several sizes larger, but his most impressive improvement was his raw strength.
Furthermore, news of Han Zexian's legacy being found had spread like wildfire, but it was sealed behind an indestructible door and nobody has been able to figure out how to open it.
