"Tian Jia Duan Ti Shen Gong" actually integrated the cultivation techniques of the major ancient martial arts families.
Li Xiaotian's eyes flickered. To be precise, the cultivation techniques of the various ancient martial arts families were all split from the Tian family's techniques.
No wonder the Tian family was the strongest, being the imperial family. The cultivation techniques inherited by other families were actually just parts of the Tian family's techniques.
"Were the ancient martial arts families secretly cultivated by the Tian family?" Li Xiaotian revealed a hint of doubt, wondering if the other families knew about this. If not, it would be interesting.
Why did the Tian family do this? Wasn't it better to strengthen themselves? They had to support families similar to themselves, and they supported fourteen families.
What about Tian Gu's final decision? Was he waiting for something?
Li Xiaotian pondered, but then shook his head. He probably just had to wait. Given Tian Gu's status, making the decision to cripple his own limbs and surrender, he likely wouldn't be able to get anything out of him.
Unable to figure it out, Li Xiaotian simply stopped thinking about it and focused on examining the cultivation techniques of other families. What he needed to do now was to strengthen himself and the Dragon King Hall. Only then would he have the strength to overcome any future dangers.
After finishing all the books, Li Xiaotian was slightly disappointed. Besides the cultivation techniques, the content in the other ancient books was too scarce and provided him with almost no help.
"Heh heh, I was too greedy," Li Xiaotian chuckled self-mockingly. Obtaining two cultivation techniques from the Tian family was already very good for him.
Calming his mind, Li Xiaotian began to diligently cultivate "Tian Huang Jue." The energy within him rapidly accumulated. At the same time, he used his mind on two tasks, merging his familiar moves with the application of his internal energy.
As a result, although his realm did not change, his strength continued to increase.
In his previous battles, although each move was powerful, too much energy was wasted, causing him to be unable to unleash his full strength.
If he were fighting an ordinary opponent, this situation would be acceptable. But if he fought an opponent like himself, he would be in danger.
In the following days, Li Xiaotian continued to strengthen himself. Simultaneously, the many War Gods of the Dragon King Hall were also cultivating "Tian Huang Jue," including the War Gods of Da Qin.
Unknowingly, the overall strength of Da Qin and the Dragon King Hall underwent a huge transformation, arousing the envy of various powerful nations.
Suddenly, countries around the world began to dig into their own ancient martial arts power. Their idea was simple: since Da Qin had it, they naturally did too.
However, after a massive undertaking, only some top-tier strong nations had minor gains, while some smaller countries gained nothing. The main reason was that their history was too short.
At the same time, in a desert somewhere in the war zone, thousands of meters below the surface, there was a large cave resembling an inverted bowl.
At the edge of the cave were metal buildings, with people coming and going inside.
In the center of the cave was a blood pool with a diameter of about three meters. In the center of the blood pool was a dark and soul-stirring stone tablet.
Even more terrifyingly, by the blood pool, a group of people in black clothes continuously brought prisoners to the blood pool, then slit their throats and poured all their blood into the blood pool.
The blood pool was filled entirely with human blood!
"Gulp!" The blood pool churned, and a naked man emerged from it. Blood flowed all over his body. Everyone around him instinctively retreated upon seeing him.
Because of the man's appearance, everyone around stopped what they were doing, causing a prisoner to instantly break free from his restraints and prepare to escape.
"Damn it! Come back!" Everyone around was shocked, but just as they were about to make a move, the man who had emerged from the blood pool acted.
With a "swish!" the man instantly appeared before the prisoner and grabbed him by the throat.
"You, you, you! You're a devil!" The prisoner's expression was one of terror.
"Crack!" With a gentle squeeze from the man, the prisoner's neck instantly snapped. Then, the man leaned down and obsessively sucked at the prisoner's neck.
This scene caused everyone around to change their expressions. Even the people in black, who knew that the man was one of their own, could not help but feel a chill in their hearts. They instinctively tightened their grip on their weapons, as if ready to attack at any moment.
"Continue killing! The blood in the blood pool is no longer pure! Bring back more people!" the man commanded coldly after finishing his blood-drinking.
"Hall Master, we have captured many people recently. Some factions in the war zone have already become aware of us. If we go up to capture more people, I'm afraid we will truly be exposed," a leader among the black-clothed men said, looking at the man with extreme fear.
The man looked at the other party upon hearing this. The blood on his face had already disappeared, revealing his appearance. If Li Xiaotian were present now, he would be greatly shocked, because this person was Li Wenbo, who had long since disappeared! The young master of the Li family!
"Hall Master!" Being looked at by Li Wenbo, the black-clothed leader immediately felt flustered, his face filled with terror.
"I want fresh human blood, whether it's someone else's or our own people's. If you can't do it, then let someone else do it!" Li Wenbo's tone was sinister and devoid of any emotion.
"Yes, Hall Master!" The black-clothed leader was filled with dread, but he quickly bowed his head in response, because he understood that everything their Hall Master said was true.
After Li Wenbo left, the black-clothed leader heaved a sigh of relief, filled with a wry smile. Who would have thought that someone who hadn't even been with their organization for a year would completely control it?
Initially, after joining the Heavenly God Hall, Li Wenbo was very obedient and offered all his family's assets. However, at that time, Li Wenbo was just an ordinary person. The Heavenly God Hall merely treated him as an ATM. Beyond that, Li Wenbo had no say in the Heavenly God Hall.
But who would have thought that a month ago, Li Wenbo disappeared for a period of time and reappeared as a top-tier War God.
As soon as he returned to the Heavenly God Hall, he killed the Hall Master and took control of the Heavenly God Hall. Moreover, all the original Hall Master's confidantes were killed, eliminating all threats.
However, the other members of the Heavenly God Hall could accept this outcome, as this was a war zone, and such events happened frequently.
At that time, everyone in the Heavenly God Hall thought that Li Wenbo would lead the Heavenly God Hall to become powerful and seek revenge.
But who would have thought that he would not do that at all? Instead, he brought everyone to this underground cave and killed some people in the hall without any reason.
The blood pool in the cave was initially filled with the blood of the Heavenly God Hall members.
In the end, if Li Wenbo hadn't feared killing everyone and leaving no manpower, the cave might have been littered with corpses by now.
Li Wenbo returned to the base. Everyone he met along the way lowered their heads, their faces filled with fear.
Li Wenbo's eyes were cold, and he purposefully walked into a room. Inside the room were several iron cages, in which some people were imprisoned.
