Walking by the Abyss on Thin Ice

Chapter 85 – Twelve Chapters of Heavenly Gate

"I..."

Su Yun opened his mouth, wanting to say that he wanted to see the techniques of the spiritual realm, but instead said, "I want to see the techniques related to the Chao Tian Que."

The girl flew up again, shuttling through the bookshelves at a fast pace and said hurriedly, "Techniques related to the Chao Tian Que? That's a rare request. For the scholars of the Heavenly Dao Academy, the techniques related to the Chao Tian Que are forbidden, and few people practice them!"

Su Yun quickly ran after her, and the book monster Ying Ying flew ahead of him. She casually flicked her hand, and books fell off the shelves and flew into his arms.

Soon, Su Yun had a thick stack of books in his arms, about ten or more, each one an inch or two thick!

"Enough! I don't need this many!" Su Yun quickly said.

The girl stopped and landed on the books in his arms, looking up at him.

Su Yun blushed and looked away, scanning the few scholars on this first floor. He then went to a desk with the books in his arms.

The girl giggled.

Su Yun picked up a book, and the girl quickly flew up and disappeared.

Su Yun opened the book and saw the girl lying inside. She sat up gracefully and seductively, and softly sang, "Within the book lies a golden palace, within the book lies a beauty like jade. Classmate, which one do you want?"

Su Yun picked her up with both hands and put her aside, saying helplessly, "I want you to stay aside. I came here to study."

"It seems that you are someone who likes to be surrounded by beautiful women."

The book monster girl flew to the side, lit a stick of sandalwood incense for him, and then took out a small qin from somewhere and began to play it.

The scent of sandalwood helped him concentrate, and the sound of the qin calmed his mind. Su Yun listened to the music and his spiritual clock turned quickly, allowing him to read ten lines at a glance. The meanings of the words in the book were extremely clear.

He used the scale of the spiritual clock to memorize the content of the book, imagining each scale as a treasure box, with the content of the book hidden inside.

When the spiritual clock turned, the words in the book flew out of these boxes. Therefore, his memory speed was very fast. Although he couldn't remember everything at a glance, with his strong comprehension ability, he could basically learn seven or eight out of ten of what he read.

If he read it a few more times, he could completely memorize the content of the book!

The first book he read was called "Chao Tian Que Volume One: Ying Long Induction Chapter." The words and patterns in the book jumped out and arranged themselves in front of him. The words were a cultivation method called the Ying Long Induction Chapter.

The pattern was the Ying Long diagram that the scholars of the Heavenly Dao Academy obtained when they studied the Chao Tian Que.

The scholars of the Heavenly Dao Academy were not to be underestimated. What Qu Bo and the others gave to the Heavenly Dao Academy were only the original materials they obtained from studying the Heavenly Gate and Ghost Market. The scholars of the Heavenly Dao Academy had not seen the real Ying Long.But they have found a way to sense the dragon in the void from these primitive materials, thus achieving the goal of sensing and understanding the dragon.

The sound of a qin came to Su Yun's ears, slow and steady, as he observed various dragon patterns.

The dragon patterns in the illustrations were the forms of the dragons sensed by the scholars of the Heavenly Dao Academy.

"Strange, this is just a foundation-building technique."

Su Yun read through and comprehended the "Dragon Sensing Chapter" once, slightly furrowing his brows. The Dragon Sensing Chapter was indeed a rare and exceptional technique, but it did not differ much from other techniques such as the Honglu Transformation, Bi Fang's Divine Walk, and the Xian Yuan Qi Cultivation Chapter.

The most wonderful thing about the Dragon Sensing Chapter was that it could sense the dragons in the void, thus understanding and sensing the dragon.

This was a novel cultivation method.

"Sensing the dragons in the void is indeed peculiar, but because it is sensing, the dragon patterns obtained are relatively vague, with many errors."

Su Yun closed his eyes and carefully "observed" the Eight-Faced Heaven Gate in his eyes, finally finding the dragon pattern on the left side of the gate.

The dragon relief on the Heaven Gate was much more complex and detailed than the dragon pattern in the Dragon Sensing Chapter, and had more divine charm!

"I wonder if I can control my Qi and blood, and make the dragon on the Heaven Gate in my eyes come to life?"

He hesitated in his heart, carefully controlling his Qi and blood, allowing this part of his Qi and blood to flow into his eyes, slowly entering the left side of the Heaven Gate, and slowly flowing towards the dragon relief!

His heart was pounding, but he forcibly suppressed his heartbeat to avoid affecting his control.

Finally, his strand of Qi and blood touched the relief of the dragon, and a force of attraction came. The dragon relief was like a whale swallowing a rainbow, constantly absorbing his Qi and blood!

On the left side of the Heaven Gate, the dragon seemed to have gained the power of creation, gradually transforming from a stone statue into a flesh-and-blood body, and then moving its body, coming to life!

"Roar!"

A deep dragon roar came, and the dragon spread its wings and flew towards the Heavenly Gate, imprinting the Heavenly Gate with its Qi and blood.

The process of imprinting the Heavenly Gate with the dragon's Qi and blood shook Su Yun's body and mind, and he felt an inexplicable touch!

He did not know how to design a technique. He could learn and cultivate the Dragon Sensing Chapter designed by the scholars of the Heavenly Dao Academy, but why did he need to visualize it in this way, why did he need to sense it in this way, why could cultivating in this way improve his cultivation, and why could it sense the dragon? He knew nothing.

But when he saw the dragon imprinting the Heavenly Gate with its own Qi and blood, he suddenly understood why the scholars of the Heavenly Dao Academy designed the Dragon Sensing Chapter in this way!

Not only did he understand, but he even saw the various shortcomings of the Dragon Sensing Chapter designed by the scholars of the Heavenly Dao Academy!Because the pattern of the Azure Dragon's blood flowing into the Heavenly Gate is a complete induction diagram!

After a moment, the blood in the Azure Dragon's body flowed out and turned back into a relief on the Chao Tian Que.

Su Yun urged his blood once again, observing and modifying the shortcomings in the Azure Dragon Induction Chapter with the help of the Azure Dragon Induction Piece.

After an unknown amount of time, he finally made all the necessary changes and opened his eyes.

He was startled when he opened his eyes and saw the book monster Ying Ying flying in front of him. The girl was lying in mid-air, her legs raised, and her hands holding her chin as she curiously looked at him.

Su Yun blushed.

Ying Ying chuckled, "You're the first boy I've seen who blushes! You're so interesting!"

She turned over and flew around Su Yun, circling him a few times before landing on his shoulder and saying, "You're the only one who has come to see the Chao Tian Que exercises in the past two years. And after seeing them, you still want to practice this kind of exercise. I've never seen anyone as daring as you."

Su Yun asked curiously, "Why can't these exercises be practiced?"

Ying Ying crawled up from his shoulder and whispered in his ear, "The Chao Tian Que exercises are too profound and mysterious. They can kill people. In the Tian Dao Academy, more than a dozen scholars have died from practicing them! Later, they became taboo! Among the exercises derived from the Chao Tian Que, only one did not kill people, and that is the Hong Lu Transforming Exercise."

Su Yun was surprised, "The Hong Lu Transforming Exercise is also one of the Chao Tian Que exercises?"

Ying Ying nodded and sat on his shoulder, swinging her legs and saying, "The Hong Lu Transforming Exercise is a unified exercise that the previous emperor's teacher compiled from the Chao Tian Que exercises. It is the most basic and easy to understand. Even he only had a superficial understanding of it and did not delve deep into it, fearing that he would die from it. He saw that this exercise was very powerful and had no flaws, so he passed it on to the scholars of the Tian Dao Academy as a foundation exercise."

Su Yun asked tentatively, "May I ask who the previous emperor's teacher was?"

"Qiu Shuijing, don't you know?"

Ying Ying looked at him strangely and said, "He was the Tai Chang of the imperial court, the head of the Western Division of the Tian Dao Academy, and the emperor's teacher. After he died, he was supposed to be posthumously named the Heavenly Teacher. Unfortunately, he was dismissed from his position and became a commoner after his death. This generation's emperor's teacher is called Lu Hao, Tai Chang Lu."

"Mr. Shuijing!"

Su Yun regained his composure and felt even more respect for Qiu Shuijing.

He closed the first volume of the Chao Tian Que's Azure Dragon Induction Chapter and opened another book titled "Chao Tian Que Volume Two: Kai Ming Induction Chapter."

He flipped through the third book, which was titled "Chao Tian Que Volume Three: Tao Wu Induction Chapter."Su Yun frowned and flipped through each book one by one. These twelve volumes were all induction sections divided by the Chao Tian Que, namely the Gluttonous, the Poor Strange, the Xuan Wu, the Kirin, the Golden Hound, the Heavy Brightness, the Bi Fang, the Kui Long, the Xie Zhi, the White Ze, and the Ying Long and Kai Ming that Su Yun had just read!

These twelve divine beasts were the twelve martial arts compiled by the scholars of the Tian Dao Yuan from the information they had obtained!

However, these twelve martial arts were all incomplete!

If someone tried to comprehend the great unification martial arts from them, they would refine themselves into demonic ways, even causing a great loss of lifespan or even death!

"Moreover, even if these twelve martial arts were complete, they would be useless."

Su Yun shook his head and thought to himself, "Twelve martial arts, twelve divinities, are just one aspect of the Chao Tian Que. There are a total of ninety-six divinities on the Chao Tian Que."

He had examined the Chao Tian Que's seal in his eyes and found various reliefs of divine beings besides the divine beasts, which were strange and varied.

He patiently studied each volume, comparing and comprehending the subtleties of these twelve martial arts.

If he were to learn them one by one, Su Yun would probably take four or five days to memorize them all.

But if he compared and learned them, Su Yun estimated that he could memorize all twelve martial arts and comprehend them thoroughly in just one day!

This was because these twelve martial arts were all of the same type, all belonging to the foundation-building martial arts. There seemed to be no common ground between them in the eyes of others, but in Su Yun's eyes, the fundamental principles were exactly the same, all of which were based on observing certain divinities to build the foundation!

Once he understood one, he could understand all twelve!

He spent all his time in the Wen Yuan Ge, burying himself in study. He didn't know how long had passed when he finally lifted his head and closed the last volume.

During this time, he not only memorized all twelve volumes but also compared and corrected the mistakes of the twelve martial arts with the reliefs on the Chao Tian Que in his eyes!

The book monster Ying Ying was daydreaming, lying on a book and rolling around. When she saw him wake up, she couldn't help but be surprised, "You've read all twelve books?"

Su Yun was puzzled, "Aren't all scholars of the Tian Dao Yuan supposed to do this?"

Ying Ying shook her head, "The Chao Tian Que martial arts are not like this! The Chao Tian Que martial arts are too obscure. I have read all the books here, but I have never seen such obscure martial arts!"

Su Yun asked, "Does that mean that there are smart and dumb scholars in the Tian Dao Yuan, and I am one of the smarter ones?"

Ying Ying rolled her eyes at him and said, "Others can read and understand, can you?"

"Of course."

Su Yun's heart moved slightly and asked, "You said you have read all the books just now?"

Ying Ying was very confident, "Backwards and forwards!"Su Yun blinked and smiled, "I have a book at home. Do you want to take a look?"

His heart was pounding. If he could lure this little girl to Shanshui Residence, he wouldn't have to sneak into Tian Dao Yuan and worry about being discovered!

"Do you want to kidnap me?" The book monster Ying Ying looked at him with a smile.

Su Yun's face turned red all of a sudden, and he felt helpless.

Ying Ying chuckled, "Many people want to kidnap Tian Dao Yuan's scholars like me. You and they all say the same thing!"

Su Yun blushed even more and obediently put the books back where they belonged.

Ying Ying looked at him in surprise. When she took out these books, she did it very quickly, and ordinary people couldn't tell where these dozen or so books came from. However, Su Yun remembered them all clearly and put them back exactly where they were!

"Did he really memorize those twelve books? This person is not just bragging!"

Ying Ying thought to herself, "If he's not bragging, then he just said he learned these twelve techniques..."

She quickly shook her head, thinking that there couldn't possibly be someone with such talent and understanding in the world!

Little did she know that Su Yun used to be a blind child, and he remembered every detail of the geography, plants, and even the bricks and stones of Tian Men Town!

Su Yun was just a strange child living in the monster pile in the no-man's land of Tian Shi Yuan, but after leaving there, his intelligence gradually revealed itself.

And when Qiu Shuijing saw his spiritual abilities for the first time, he realized that this young man had astonishing understanding!
