Chapter 58: The High Tower
An's ancestors were thinking what, Tang Song did not know, nor did he want to know. He just wanted to see the legendary treasure, what it looked like.
Unfortunately, An Shizi bluntly rejected his request.
According to his words, even as the young master of this generation, he is not qualified to see the An family's treasure. It is said that even his father, An Mou Song, needs to get approval from the current old ancestor of the An family just to take a look.
On the road, he met Third Uncle An Mao Cong. "Tang Song, your admission procedures have been completed. From today on, you are a member of An Shan Wu Yuan. Cultivate well and strive to achieve good results in the secret realm."
After finishing speaking, An San Shu flashed away.
Tang Song had no experience with secret realms at all, so he could only ask An Shizi, "Your Highness, in this secret realm, do you still care about results?"
"Of course, the better one's achievements, the more they can comprehend. Our royal family and some of the larger clans' children will all enter the secret realm before the Grand Completion of Martial Arts to comprehend the cultivation experiences of our predecessors. Unfortunately, very few are able to comprehend the realm of Wu Ling."
Tang Song was stunned and said: "Your meaning is that in order to understand the secret realm owner's cultivation history before his death, one must also look at their strength?"
"Otherwise, wouldn't everyone be able to easily cultivate to the level of a Martial King?" The master of Anshan Secret Realm was a strong Martial King, and if one could comprehend his life's cultivation experiences, it would be of great benefit to their own Dao.
It wouldn't be so bad if it weren't for the current state of affairs, where the royal family of Anshan Country is so embarrassed that they don't even have a strong martial artist of the Wu Zong level to guard them.
"Tang Song, be honest with me, what is your current cultivation level? You look like you're only at the 8th layer of Martial Artist, but when fighting, you're not even a match for a late-stage Martial Master. I really can't understand it. But there's one thing I need to tell you, before entering the secret realm, under no circumstances should you break through to the Wu Ling realm."
An Shizi said with a curious face.
Tang Song thought for a moment before saying: "Your Highness, can you break through in the secret realm?"
An Shizi nodded and said, "This is not a problem. In the past, many predecessors have made breakthroughs in the secret realm. Some of them broke through from the Great Perfection of Martial Arts to the Realm of Martial Spirit."
Tang Song was a bit puzzled, this secret realm was indeed mysterious. When warriors from the Wu Ling Realm entered it, it would cause the secret realm to become unstable, or even collapse. But breaking through within the secret realm itself didn't pose any problems.
What kind of rule is this?
In the end, it can only be concluded that this world is too mysterious. It has completely gone beyond the realm of common sense, and this is a world where anything is possible.
An Shizi saw that Tang Song had avoided his own problem, so he didn't ask again. Everyone has their secrets. As for the An family, it was no longer a suspense whether Tang Song would become stronger in the future.
So all they need to do is take advantage of the weakness of Tang and Song and provide as much help as possible.
Later, when Tang and Song become powerful, they can also have a hint of romance.
An Shi Zi took out a nameplate from the things handed over by San Shu and explained, "Tang Song, this is your school ID plate. Remember to carry it with you at all times. Sometimes, the Martial Arts Academy's law enforcement team will conduct spot checks. And on it is your dormitory number, I'll take you there."
Tang Song was separated into an independent yard. Perhaps the people who settled in knew that this guy was a troublemaker, so they let him live alone in a separate yard.
"It's still more comfortable for you! Even my own courtyard as the crown prince is not as good as this. This is specially allocated to the martial arts teachers."
Tang Song didn't have much of an opinion about where he lived, what he cared about was whether or not he could now enter the Martial Institute's library.
"Your Highness, may I enter the library of the Martial Institute?"
An Shizi smiled and said: "Tang Song, from now on don't call me Da Wangzi anymore. I'm two years older than you, so from now on you can call me An Dage or An Shizi."
Tang Song did not hesitate and nodded directly to accept this proposal.
An Shizi smiled, and this way, he could get closer to Tang Song again. "Originally, the students of the Martial Institute had some rules to enter the Book Pavilion. However, my father said that for you, there are no conditions."
This is a relief for Tang Song. If it's too troublesome, he can't bear it. Besides, there are only three months left, and they can't drag on!
Anshan Wang's cultivation journey, he didn't take it very seriously. After all, everyone's path to cultivation is different. By understanding others' cultivation journeys, you can solve many major problems on your own path and avoid taking many detours.
But also has a certain drawback, that is lacking in self-innovation.
Such a warrior is destined to never reach the pinnacle of martial arts.
So generally, ambitious warriors enter the secret realm not to follow in their predecessors' footsteps, but to use their predecessors' path to validate their own.
One is to follow the old path, and the other is to refer to the old path and blaze a new trail.
In this way, although it is more difficult to cultivate in the early stage, but in the later stage, it can be stable and solid.
If you follow others' old path, when this old path reaches its end, it's not only difficult to turn back and blaze a new trail, but also time-consuming.
For Tang Song, his path has already been set, the cultivation of the Three Lives Wheel's key, there is nothing that can be used as a reference. The only thing he can use as a reference is what kind of characteristics each realm has.
Then he plans his own cultivation path based on this characteristic.
It's not like now, with a black swipe of both eyes, completely unaware of what's ahead and where the direction is.
The Three Lives Reincarnation Technique is extremely powerful, this goes without saying.
However, he only cultivated his skills and didn't know what each realm entailed, what he should do, or what he should prepare for.
A big tree is composed of a main pole and branches and leaves.
The three-life wheel is just this main pole, but if this big tree wants to become a towering tree, it must have branches and leaves to assist.
As the number of times using Samsara increased, Tang Song also felt that this heaven-defying * was opened, and the consumption of true energy depended on your combat power.
And this true energy consumption is based on the cultivation of the physical body as a standard.
It all depends on how long the Three Lives Wheel can be used, which is entirely dependent on the height of the main body's cultivation and the height of the combat power.
With his current cultivation as Ben Tian Wu Shi Ba Zhong, his two avatars are one at the peak of martial arts and the other in the late stage, infinitely close to the peak. After casting San Sheng Lun Hui, he can raise his combat power to the peak of Martial Spirit.
It is possible to want to use Wu Ling's great perfection in combat power to fight, but the consumption of the body's true energy is a huge test.
Even if the Three Lives Wheel of Reincarnation is again mysterious and the Two Instruments True Qi is again miraculous, it can only last for about three minutes.
This is a hard wound.
So upgrading one's own cultivation is imperative!
The two avatars broke through without any obstacles due to the level of their demon cores. However, it was not the same for his main body, as every breakthrough was a real challenge.
Apart from some necessary enlightenment, there is also a large amount of heavenly and earthly primordial energy.
The higher the level of Gongfa, the thicker the true Qi cultivated in the same realm.
At present, the true energy of Tang Song Wu Shi's eightfold has already exceeded that of a martial artist in the initial stage. Later on, this gap will become more and more obvious. The required heavenly and earthly primordial energy will also increase.
Although he is now absorbing the heaven and earth's primordial energy at a very abnormal speed, there is still a process of refining it, and also a limit to how much his body can withstand.
To quickly improve one's cultivation, there are two ways: one is to enter the Wujin Academy's library and comprehend the boundaries. The other is to enter the secret realm and find enough spiritual medicine to provide heavenly energy.
This world's heaven and earth yuanqi is very abundant, so the vast majority of martial artists have a low demand for spiritual elixirs that provide yuanqi, and instead use more healing spiritual elixirs.
So this world's alchemist profession has not received enough attention.
It is actually Alchemy Masters who are considered the most expensive profession in the True Spirit Continent.
Through this period of time, Tang Song came to understand that although the world's heavenly and earthly energies were dense, the number of spiritual herbs growing in the outside world was not many. On the other hand, it was within the secret realms that spiritual herbs grew very luxuriantly.
The outside world and the secret realm seem to have been divided by someone, with the outside world giving birth to precious instruments and the materials needed to refine them, while the secret realm gives birth to spiritual medicine.
Of course, a small amount of refining material will also be nurtured in the secret realm.
Tang Song's plan was to first spend three months in the library of Wu Institute, gaining a sufficient understanding of the boundary. Then enter the secret realm and open his belly to eat spiritual medicine.
If An Shizi and others knew about Tang Song's plan, they would probably be speechless with laughter!
Others enter the secret realm for their predecessors' cultivation journey, but this guy is here for the spiritual medicine.
Under Tang Song's request, An Shizi had no choice but to take Tang Song to the library of Wu Institute.
Under the tall tower, Tang Song asked in doubt: "Isn't the Wuyuan's Cangshuge Pavilion inside this tall tower? Didn't they say that this is where the secret realm is?"
An Shizi explained: "This pagoda has nine floors, and the entrance to the secret realm is only at the very top. The ones below are some of the places where the An family's seniors reside and sit in meditation, while others are where the book pavilions are located."
Tang Song nodded, guessing that in the entire Anshan country, this tall tower was probably the safest place.
The senior master of the An family is stationed here, the secret realm is also here, and the treasure left by King Anshan is also on this side.
This is the real copper wall and iron wall!
With a sigh, Tang Song followed An Shizi's footsteps into the grand entrance of the high tower.
The first floor, with an area of over 100 square meters, appears somewhat empty due to the lack of furniture, and has a spiral staircase in the middle.
Under the stairs, a wooden bed was placed. On the wooden bed, an old man sat upright.
An old man in a hemp garment sat cross-legged on a wooden bed, his eyes closed, meditating. Feeling someone enter, he opened his eyes, and between the opening and closing of them, a fierce energy burst forth, making one's heart skip a beat.
P.S: Although I've tried my best to keep this interface clean, I still can't help but ask for collection and recommendation votes, it's just too pitiful!
