Eternal Sacred King

Chapter 2633 Technique Reserve

However, all the clues pointed to the Sect Master of the Academy.

Or rather, it was someone from Heaven and Earth Academy!

That was because back at the Immortal Sect Selection, Su Zimo's initial intention was not Heaven and Earth Academy, but Mountain Sea Immortal Sect.

However, because of the appearance of Prince Yuan Zuo and Zither Immortal Meng Yao, a huge change happened at the Immortal Sect Selection. In the end, after a few twists and turns alongside Yang Ruoxu's insistence as well as Senior Sister Mo Qing's appearance, he joined Heaven and Earth Academy.

The entire process was filled with uncertainty and coincidence.

If there was truly such a person plotting behind the scenes, it meant that this person had long divined all the coincidences and determined the eventual direction of the matter!

What sort of wisdom was that?

Furthermore, after the Sect Master of the Academy spoke to him, Su Zimo even specially asked Senior Sister Mo Qing about her appearance back then.

According to Senior Sister Mo Qing, it was because of Elder Eight of the academy that she rushed to the Immortal Sect Selection.

Who was Elder Eight of the academy?

What sort of a role was he playing in between?

"Could it be the Sect Master of the Academy?"

Su Zimo looked at Immortal Queen Ling Long and asked softly.

Immortal Queen Ling Long remained silent.

The implications of this matter were extremely important.

The Sect Master of the Academy was Su Zimo's master after all and even had a lifesaving grace towards the latter. She could not make wild guesses without any evidence.

"I'm not sure if it's the Sect Master of the Academy."

Immortal Queen Ling Long said in a deep voice, "However, the Sect Master of the Academy is able to divine the heavenly secrets, the human heart, fate and karma. He does have the ability to set such a plan in motion!"

This was no simple plan. After all, Su Zimo was not the only target; there was also Prince Yuan Zuo, the Great Jin Immortal Kingdom, Yang Ruoxu, Zither Immortal Meng Yao, Painting Immortal Mo Qing…

There was even King Yun You and Immortal Queen Ling Long!

Everyone Su Zimo had seen ever since he started cultivating could have been a chess piece.

Immortal Queen Ling Long said, "Although I'm also good at divination, I'm indeed inferior to the Sect Master of the Academy when it comes to divining the heavenly secrets and fate."

"At the very least, given my capabilities, there's no way I could have divined the time and location of your ascension."

Su Zimo nodded.

The ninth stone step of Heaven and Earth Academy's Dao Heart Stairs, the Wisdom Step, was condensed by the Sect Master of the Academy.

Back when he ascended to the ninth stone step, he experienced the will of the Sect Master of the Academy.

The impact on his Dao Heart was indeed extremely shocking.

The reason why he could survive the ninth stone step and condense the tenth stone step of the Dao Heart Stairs was because his two true bodies resonated and his Martial Dao will descended!

It was no exaggeration to claim that the Sect Master of the Academy could plan flawlessly!

Suddenly, Immortal Queen Ling Long asked, "I heard from Luo'er that back in Langfeng City, you unintentionally released the Nine Palace Subtle Steps. Have you seen such a footwork somewhere?"

"Back when the Martial Dao Prime Body underwent Tribulation Transcendence, a few humanoid Heavenly Tribulations descended. Among them, a black-robed woman held a turtle shell in one hand and a horsetail whip in the other."

Su Zimo did not know why Immortal Queen Ling Long suddenly mentioned this matter. However, he still nodded and did not hide anything.

Upon hearing Su Zimo's description, the eyes of Immortal Queen Ling Long lit up.

Su Zimo continued, "This black-robed woman's combat strength is terrifying and she once used this mysterious footwork. It was extremely enigmatic and left a deep impression on me."

"Later on, in Langfeng City, I released it by a stroke of inspiration."

"Indeed."

Immortal Queen Ling Long murmured softly before asking with a smile, "Do you know who the black-robed woman you saw was?"

"I don't know."

Su Zimo shook his head.

Immortal Queen Ling Long said, "The era of this black-robed woman might be more than a billion years ago or even billions of years ago. No matter what, she should be the oldest Great Emperor in the records of the upper world!"

It was another Great Emperor!

Su Zimo's heart skipped a beat.

Back then, Demoness Ji told him that the white-robed woman with a long sword that the Martial Dao Prime Body saw during the Tenth Tribulation was a Great Emperor in the past.

Great Empress Nine Nether!

If this black-robed woman was once a Great Emperor as well, that meant that the few people the Martial Dao Prime Body saw when he underwent Tribulation Transcendence should be Great Emperors who had left traces of Dharmic Dao in the upper world!

Immortal Queen Ling Long continued, "The black-robed woman you saw was Great Empress Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden. She once left behind a Dharmic Dao inheritance in the upper world. It's a Taboo Mystic Classic called the Technique Reserve."

Taboo Mystic Classics were extremely rare and only Great Emperors could leave behind Taboo Mystic Classic inheritances.

For example, although Emperor Bo Xun and Fiend Emperor Apocalypse were strong, their Fiend Obsession Buddha Karmic Sutra and Apocalyptic Fiend Sutra were only comparable to Taboo Mystic Classics at most and were not at the level of actual Taboo Mystic Classics.

"The Technique Reserve is all-encompassing, including Divination, Geomancy, Destiny, Phenomenon, Dream Interpretation, Auspicious Choice, Astral Interpretation, Astronomical Phenomenon, Talisman… everything!"

"There are a total of three sections to the Technique Reserve, starting with Primordial Unity. The remaining two sections are Qimen Dunjia[1] and Six Ren Divine Calculation."

"Back then, I obtained this opportunity at the same time as the Sect Master of the Academy. We were both chosen by the Dharmic Dao of Great Empress Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden, but we received different inheritances. The Sect Master of the Academy received Qimen Dunjia while I received Six Ren Divine Calculation."

"In terms of divining heavenly secrets, fate and offensive techniques, Qimen Dunjia is superior."

"The Dharmic formulation of the Nine Palace Subtle Steps is hidden in Six Ren Divine Calculation."

At that point, Su Zimo was enlightened.

It was no wonder why Immortal Queen Ling Long would suddenly mention this matter. So, there was such a relationship between her and the Sect Master of the Academy.

The reason why the Sect Master of the Academy was superior to her in terms of divining fate was because he obtained Qimen Dunjia of the Technique Reserve.

Su Zimo's heart skipped a beat as he suddenly asked, "Senior, you just said that there are three sections to the Technique Reserve. Who obtained the inheritance of Primordial Unity?"

According to Immortal Queen Ling Long, Primordial Unity was the first of the three sections in the Technique Reserve. Therefore, it should be even more mysterious.

Immortal Queen Ling Long said, "The Dharmic Dao of Primordial Unity has a unique origin and it was not passed down. Nether I nor the Sect Master of the Academy obtained it."

Pausing for a moment, Immortal Queen Ling Long suddenly took out an ancient turtle shell from her storage bag and handed it to Su Zimo. "Back then, when you saw the turtle shell in the hands of Great Empress Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden, this should be what it looked like, right?"

Su Zimo focused his gaze and nodded.

The size of the turtle shell and even the patterns on it were identical to the one he had seen in the hands of the black-robed woman!

From the looks of it, the weapon of Great Empress Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden had already been passed down and was obtained by Immortal Queen Ling Long.

Right then, a thought flashed through Su Zimo's mind.

He thought of the other weapon in the hands of Great Empress Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden, the jade-handled horsetail whip.

It was completely identical to the Primordial Unity Horsetail Whip in his possession.

Furthermore, the Primordial Unity Horsetail Whip carried the words Primordial Unity.

There was also the Primordial Unity section in the Technique Reserve.

Was there a connection between the two?
