Chapter 376: Mystical Technique

Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations

Within the 9 Extremes Mountain, the surroundings remained misty.

Numerous restrictions covered the land, forming an area of extreme danger.

Although many dream masters had explored the mountain, a few treasures still remain, but the traces of dream masters had slowly reduced.

In a certain location, an altar was erected. Arrays shimmered around it as many dream masters gathered within the protection of the array. With fear, they scanned the surroundings and were on guard.

"Our 5 Grand Organisations have formed an alliance. The one in charge of this place should be a powerful dream master from the Realm Alliance. Why is he not here yet?"

A man in yellow robes glanced at his array plate and gave a worried look. "Could there be changes?"

"Hmph! When did Baizi Mountain produce such cowardly dream masters?"

As soon as he finished his piece, a young man with a pale skin and an evil vibe scoffed.

"Lu Xuanzhi, since your Evil Divine Sect is so powerful, why not you go out and take a look?"

The man in yellow robes rolled his eyes and rebutted.

"Keke..."

With a chuckle, Lu Xuanzhi remained silent.

Previously, the base of the Realm Alliance was being attacked. Although none of the powerful dream masters was injured, most of the normal dream masters were killed. Furthermore, the plan for the other 4 Grand Organisations to attack the reinforcements of the Imperial Court did not go smoothly and many dream masters were killed in the process as well. All of these factors had already struck fear in these low-tiered dream masters.

Although they had already confirmed that the Imperial Court had retreated, it was still possible for one or two of them to linger about in the premises of the 9 Extremes Mountain!

All of them were assigned missions to guard the altar. It would be seeking death if they were to leave the place!

"Hehe... Why are we having internal conflicts?"

Suddenly, with a chime and a whiff of fragrance, a beautiful figure floated and came in between the both of them. "As alliance members, let's not fight each other, alright? On my account, shake your hands and reconcile."

This lady smiled, giving off a shockingly alluring vibe.

"Since it's the Divine Lady's request, I'll respect that!"

Lu Xuanzhi dismounted from his donkey. However, the man in yellow robes revealed a look of uneasiness.

Although this lady was not a powerful dream master, she was a Reserved Divine Lady of the Divine Lotus Cult. With that, she had many followers and backings in the base. The man in yellow robes was a dream master of Baize Mountain and therefore found it hard to communicate with members of the two evil sects.

He remained speechless. After all, if he were to establish any relations with these two dream masters, he would only bring trouble to himself.

'Fortunately, the guardian of this place is a member of the Realm Alliance. The dream masters of the Realm Alliance are neutral and therefore have a good relationship with the dream masters of Baize Mountain!'

The man in yellow robes felt a little relieved. He had gotten news that the newly-deployed dream master should have been Xin Yunzi, but the Realm Alliance had swapped him out in the last minute.

It was extremely rare for such swaps to happen, which would, more often than not, make the rest worry.

Lu Xuanzhi was about to speak but suddenly, the 3 dream master could detect something coming from afar.

The silhouette of a human appeared. With every step he took, he would leap over 30 yards. In no time, he had already arrived before them.

"Who's that?"

This person had a shocking spiritual aura of a martial artist, bringing discomfort to everyone in the base.

"Strike!"

Lu Xuanzhi quickly executed a defensive technique and a yellow glow appeared outside the array.

"I am the guardian of this place. Why is there none of you out here to welcome me?"

The silhouette had an extremely pressurising spiritual aura as it casually took out a piece of order plate.

"Buzz! Buzz!"

The glow from the array shook and as it interacted with the order plate an opening was revealed.

"It is indeed an order plate from the Realm Alliance!"

The man in yellow robes heaved a sigh of relief. Together with Lu Xuanzhi and the Divine Lady, they paid their respects. "We are Huang Long, Lu Xuanzhi, Meng Lian. Greetings, senior!"

"Meng Lian?"

The silhouette entered the array. He appeared young but had a mysterious and unpredictable spiritual aura. Mockingly, it examined Meng Lian.

"What... It's you! Fang Yuan!"

Meng Lian raised her head and gazed at the face she so hated. Uncontrollably, she spoke. "It's not possible that you are the powerful dream master assisting us!"

"Oh?"

Lu Xuanzhi exchanged glances with Huang Long. Looking at the pale Meng Lian, both of them were thinking that Meng Lian and Fang Yuan had met before.

"Why can't it be me?"

Fang Yuan rubbed his nose and felt entertaining as he looked at the woman in front of him.

After such a long time, this woman had improved in her cultivation and had already attained the Illusionary Divine stage. However, compared to him, her improvements were nothing.

To make things worse, she was now Fang Yuan's subordinate and Fang Yuan had the rights to give her orders.

Fate was making a fool of everyone.

"Meng Lian pays my greetings to you, Lord. Please forgive me for any past wrongdoings!"

Being smart, she immediately paid her greetings humbly.

"Forget it, please rise!"

Fang Yuan tried to control his laughter as he waved his hands. "From today onwards, we have to work together to accomplish the mission of our alliance. That is the most important!"

Although he was the leader among them, he could not brazenly kill this woman, especially so after the dream masters around had learnt of their past encounters. However, Fang Yuan was decided that if they were to encounter another ambush by the people of Da Qian, he would do nothing to help her and leave her to die!

"I shall take a rest first. I'll get to know every one of you during the dinner later on!"

With a composed look, Fang Yuan waved his sleeves and entered the centre of the base. A few dream masters of the Realm Alliance were already waiting for him to serve him.

The 3 dream masters remained at their spots, speechless.

"What?"

Lu Xuanzhi gazed at Meng Lian with a look of curiosity. "Sister Meng Lian, how did you know of Senior Fang?"

"Fate!"

Meng Lian gritted her teeth aggressively as fear filled her heart. She started to shudder. "I know that this person has only joined the Realm Alliance for a few years. Most importantly, when I first met him, he was not even in the 4th Tier of the Illusionary Divine stage."

"He needs to be at least in the 5th or 6th Tier of the Illusionary Divine stage to be our guardian, right?"

Huang Long felt confused. "How can his improve so quickly? Even if he was blessed with opportunities, he had to be a one-in-a-million talent!"

Exchanging glances with Lu Xuanzhi, both of them were overcome with shock.

"Sister Meng Lian, I recall that I have just finished a batch of spiritual pills. I have to manage the fire in the furnace. See you!"

Lu Xuanzhi took his leave. Seeing this, Huang Long left as well without saying a single word.

Their direct superior was now Fang Yuan. Even if Meng Lian had a powerful backing, it would not be able to arrive on time to save her should the need arise. Wouldn't it be a pity if any of them were to be caught in their crossfire and get injured?

"D*mn it!"

Of course, Meng Lian could understand them. With that, her face turned pale. "Now, the war is everything. Even my father cannot change this mission. To think that I will have to serve under him..."

With that thought, she was filled with regret.

...

"This place is indeed a node!"

After being brought into a stone hall, Fang Yuan did not immediately take his rest. Instead, he entered the earth meridian to investigate the node.

In the middle of a calm pool of water, there was a fleeting purple glow which gave off a faint roar of a dragon.

"This is indeed the Dragon Piercing Needle! What about all these..."

A golden hue flashed across his eyes as Fang Yuan mumbled to himself.

In this period of time, Fang Yuan had studied the inheritance of Sage Changli and was already extremely familiar with these arrangements. Furthermore, he had now further understood the greed of the 5 Grand Organisations.

"The Imperial Court must have felt it oo. However, they are at a disadvantage! So what if they destroyed a few nodes? It would not affect the final outcome..."

Fang Yuan sighed.

Dream masters were indeed powerful. In previous years, the Evil Divine Sect and the Divine Lotus Sect had combined forces, and that was already enough to hold the Hidden Dragon Guards to a stalemate. The only reason why they did not eradicate the royal family was that there were conflicts of interest between the dream masters from the two sects.

However, now that the 5 Grand Organisations had decided to combine forces, the Imperial Court would not be likely to hold up.

"However, the arrangement here is not just simply restricting the earth energy at the correct time..."

Fang Yuan sighed. With that, he returned to this room and started his cultivation.

His path as a dream master had come to a halt. Without anything else to aid him, it was extremely difficult for him to increase his cultivation level. On the other hand, his progress in martial arts was extremely smooth sailing. Therefore, he had decided to focus all his effort on the cultivation and training of his martial arts.

After all, if he were to achieve a breakthrough and form the Divine Body, he would immediately become a True Divine, comparable to the power of a dream master in the 7th Tier of the Illusionary Divine stage!

"I have maximised the potential of the Giant Eagle Metal Body Technique. However, I can still fuse it with the Hundred Poison Golden Body Technique to achieve a breakthrough to the 9th Meridian!"

This technique of fusing techniques was something Fang Yuan had thought about after reading through the recordings of witchcraft. Comparing it against the experiences of Sage Changli, Fang Yuan felt that it was extremely plausible to execute it.

"After all, in these two techniques, one of the technique focuses on my Spirit, while the other one focuses on my Essence. Both of them are not conflicting and instead, they can complement each other. Considering my strong physical body, I should be able to handle the stress!"

"Based on my predictions, once this new technique achieves a breakthrough to the 9th Meridian, I will be able to form the Divine Body immediately. After all, my foundations are already strong enough!"

Fang Yuan stood still. Suddenly, he started to walk about the room and occasionally struck a few claws.

Considering his current martial arts cultivation level, if he were to use his full force, he would destroy the entire base.

Now, he was silently executing his moves.

"After my experimentation, the Giant Eagle Metal Body Technique is still considered a rough technique and has the properties of iron. However, the Hundred Poison Golden Body has the properties of gold!"

Taking a few steps forward, his body started to glitter. Together with an eagle's chirp, a later of metallic black appeared on his skin.

This was the appearance of the 8th Grade Giant Eagle Metal Body Technique.

Behind him, the spiritual meridians came together, forming a giant eagle which raised its head towards the sky and chirped.

Within moments, a golden hue appeared. It started to mix with the black-coloured hue. This was the defensive element of the Hundred Poison Golden Body, and it was being forcefully fused into Fang Yuan's technique.

"Chirp! Chirp!"

As the eagle let out a loud chirp, the illusionary figure of the giant started to blur.

On Fang Yuan's body, the gold started to mix with the metallic colour, forming a new dark-gold hue.

"Hmm, since this technique is formed from fusing two great techniques to allow me to attain the 9th Meridian, I shall call it the 'Nine Transference Mystical Technique' which will allow one to form the Golden Metal Body!"

With a thought, the stats on Fang Yuan's stats window started to change.

Under Techniques, the label of Giant Eagle Metal Body Technique and the Hundred Poison Golden Body Technique started to come together and transformed into the words of 'Nine Transference Mystical Technique'. However, there was a row of question marks behind the technique.

"This stats window is indeed showing me what I know."

Seeing this, Fang Yuan was lost in his thoughts.
