Chapter 1223 Absorbed
"The Nine Secrets of the Heavenly Witch are nine divine abilities, and with the inheritance you obtained from Qin Yi, it might become another divine ability."
"And my spatial magic..."
Mid-sentence, Wu Min quickly waved his hand. "Let's forget that. Even I haven't grasped this divine ability yet."
Chen Yang looked at Wu Min with a mixture of amusement and exasperation. He truly had no idea what was going on in this guy's head.
He was currently only at the fifth level of Core Formation.
Whether he could break through to the Core Formation Supreme realm, and then advance past the Supreme realm to the Nascent Soul realm, was uncertain.
Chen Yang himself couldn't guarantee it.
The final step was too difficult. Even Jiang Taotian spent a thousand years building his foundation.
But still, he didn't succeed!
Wasn't Jiang Taotian strong?
He blocked the prefect of the Demon Capital Prefecture across realms. Everyone who knew Jiang Taotian saw that Jiang Taotian possessed the same imposing aura as Jiang Jiantao in his youth.
But even so... it ended in failure.
"The divine abilities I've seen so far are only two: Miss Qin's Three-Eyed Divine Ability, and Shi Xinchou's Law Manifesting as Heaven and Earth."
"For me to cultivate all Nine Secrets of the Heavenly Witch into divine abilities, you're not just underestimating me; you're treating me like a reincarnated sage?"
Chen Yang chuckled to himself, then noticed Wu Min looking at him with a grin.
Seeing that smile, Chen Yang was stunned and asked blankly, "Could I really be a reincarnated sage? I heard sages can achieve sainthood in a day, is that true?"
"Is the gap between Nascent Soul and Sage large?"
Faced with Chen Yang's sudden question, Wu Min almost choked on his own spit.
"Cough, cough, cough!"
After coughing for a while, he finally recovered.
Wu Min took a deep breath and said to Chen Yang, "Don't let your mind wander. Reincarnated sage? Would such good fortune fall to you?"
"Not to mention that they would have made arrangements long ago, and might be found by their disciples as soon as they reincarnated..."
"And looking at you, in what way are you like a sage?"
"However, your destiny is indeed very special. I don't know if it's due to the influence of human destiny."
"Purely in terms of destiny, you are stronger than me, perhaps catching up to Shi Xinchou and the others."
As for the realm question Chen Yang asked,
Wu Min pondered for a moment before saying, "There's something you might not know: Nascent Soul is very strong!"
"So strong it can change another person's destiny."
"There was once a cultivation theory that those below Nascent Soul cultivate to defy the heavens and change their own fate."
"While those above Nascent Soul have transcended their own destiny."
"They are beings who possess a second life!"
"As for the sages you mentioned, from what I know, one might not appear in tens of thousands of years... In our world, these are just legendary tales."
Chen Yang felt that Wu Min was unwilling to talk about realms above Nascent Soul, but he wasn't surprised.
After all, Wu Min was only at the Core Formation realm back then. It was normal for him not to know much about realms above Nascent Soul.
If Wu Min knew what Chen Yang was thinking at that moment, he would have been furious.
While his realm and strength might not be as great as Shi Xinchou's, when it came to knowledge and experience, others would find it hard to surpass him!
Even though he hadn't reached the Nascent Soul realm, he knew Nascent Soul cultivators. Otherwise, why would he have fallen into slumber like the members of sects such as Shi Xinchou's?
Chen Yang sighed, "I guess I should stop thinking so much and focus on researching my own techniques."
"Right, can you give me the other sets of Heavenly Witch secret arts to cultivate?"
Chen Yang's eyes twinkled as he looked at Wu Min.
But Wu Min, upon hearing Chen Yang's words, was momentarily unable to react.
"When did I have such cultivation techniques? I've only seen users of these techniques. I can't just hold a knife to someone's throat and ask, can I?"
"That's not the act of a righteous person; it's what demons and devils do!"
Wu Min's righteous indignation almost made Chen Yang believe him...
If it weren't for the slightly evasive look in Wu Min's eyes!
Chen Yang said with a smile, "Alright, alright. I've even learned your spatial secret arts."
"You have no use for the Nine Secrets of the Heavenly Witch... just hand them over to me!"
Provoked by Chen Yang, Wu Min immediately jumped up.
But Wu Min didn't speak; he just stared at Chen Yang.
After they stared at each other for a while, Wu Min closed his eyes in pain and sighed, "You brat, you're ruthless. You've really got me cornered!"
Chen Yang coughed and explained, "Old Wu, how can this be considered cornering you? Only when I become stronger can I help you clarify what happened back then."
"Besides, you're not losing anything by being half a master to me."
At Chen Yang's words, Wu Min rolled his eyes. "Half a master, you really have the nerve to say that."
"Fine, fine. I've used so many of your spirit stones in the Land of Hope. It's not impossible to give you the things."
"But let's agree beforehand, I haven't verified these things, and after so many years, I don't know if my memory is accurate."
"Besides the three secret arts you're cultivating, the secret arts I've collected include Thunder Secret and Water Secret."
Seeing Chen Yang about to speak, Wu Min quickly explained, "Don't complain that it's few. I collected these for over a hundred years."
"So when I knew you found three secret arts, I wanted to kill you."
"Perhaps, this is the difference in destiny!"
Chen Yang chuckled dryly. Being able to obtain two new Heavenly Witch Nine Secrets made him very satisfied. It wasn't the quantity he was concerned about.
"The Fire, Earth, and Sky-Trekking secret arts I'm cultivating are definitely incomplete, so I'll have to trouble Old Wu..."
Before Chen Yang could finish speaking, Wu Min interrupted him directly. "I understand what you mean. I'll write down everything I know."
"However, I don't know about Sky-Trekking; I only know Fire and Earth."
The two went to the study, and after Wu Min wrote down what was in his mind, Chen Yang whispered a few words in Wu Min's ear.
He was talking about the bronze cauldron in the Demon Capital Prefecture.
Wu Min's eyes widened as he looked at Chen Yang, somewhat indignantly. "This matter is much bigger than cultivation techniques. Couldn't you have told me this first?"
"Let's go, we'll go see Jiang Taotian together. He's been preoccupied with the matter of the cauldron."
"Now that you've retrieved the cauldron, you've also resolved one of his worries."
As Wu Min spoke, he was about to pull Chen Yang to find Jiang Taotian.
However, Chen Yang smiled bitterly and said, "Don't rush, I haven't finished speaking!"
Seeing the impatience in Wu Min's eyes, Chen Yang quickly explained, "The bronze cauldron has already been absorbed by me. To be precise, it was absorbed by the main cauldron."
Wu Min looked at Chen Yang and saw that he wasn't joking at all. He immediately calmed down.
He knew a little about the origin of the bronze cauldron, but it could be absorbed?
He truly didn't understand!
"Then what do we do?"
