Chapter 122: Offering the Cultivation Technique, Don't Want? Want?

……

Ye Xiaozhi, however, first glanced at Lin Yang, then asked doubtfully: "Master, he should be that person you chased twice but failed to catch, whom you tried to take as your second disciple, right?"

Lin Yang nodded.

Then

Ye Xiaozhi, however, looked at Zhou Tianming and said slowly: "Junior brother, when Master originally came to find you, intending to take you as a disciple, if you hadn't run away, you would have been my senior brother."

"But, now I am your second senior sister."

"If you ever need anything from your second senior sister, just speak up, don't be polite."

Ye Xiaozhi stuck out her tongue.

And Zhou Tianming's eyes went dark.

As it turns out.

Originally, Lin Yang chased him in order to take him as a disciple.

It was he who ran away, and then Lin Yang encountered Ye Xiaozhi.

Thus.

So the title of his second disciple was taken by Ye Xiaozhi?

Zhou Tianming regretted it to the core.

If I had known earlier, why bother back then?

However.

He also secretly vowed in his heart to work hard at cultivation, break through his realm as soon as possible, and defeat these two women before him.

Let them become his junior sisters.

He wants to be the eldest.

————————

Seeing the three disciples getting along so harmoniously, Lin Yang also secretly let out a sigh of relief.

He gazed at Zhou Tianming and said earnestly: "Having entered my sect, from now on you must focus on cultivation and not let worldly distractions confuse your mind."

"If you truly lose your mind to worldly affairs, then come tell me, your master."

Zhou Tianming blinked, surprised: "You're this protective of your disciples?"

Lin Yang continued: "Moreover, the path of cultivation is long and arduous; you must take it step by step, not take past glories as heroism, and adjust your attitude."

"Understand?"

Zhou Tianming nodded solemnly and replied: "Master, rest assured, I will keep your teachings in mind and cultivate diligently."

Lin Yang nodded.

Then he said.

"Alright, since you have become my disciple, I should also give you a cultivation technique."

"I have here..."

Before Lin Yang could finish speaking, Zhou Tianming's expression brightened, full of pride and confidence, and he interjected: "Master, I frankly tell you, regarding the cultivation technique, you really need not worry."

"In my previous life I possessed the strength of a Great Emperor Realm; in that life I gathered countless techniques and secret manuals. I am not boasting—common cultivation methods in this world are nothing special to me; I could even recite and transcribe them from memory."

"Therefore, regarding cultivation techniques, I have my own method, and the technique I practice is absolutely not inferior to theirs."

Zhou Tianming slightly raised his chin, looking at Li Yilan and Ye Xiaozhi, his words revealing a hint of his former arrogance.

"Another show-off."

The senior inside the Azure Ring said slowly: "I bet this kid will definitely regret it within three seconds."

"Senior, how can you be so sure?" Li Yilan asked curiously.

"Having been bitten by tigers many times, one naturally sees further; his cultivation technique wanting to surpass what your master gives is simply a dream." The senior inside the Azure Ring replied with an air of profound mystery.

Upon hearing this, Lin Yang merely nodded calmly.

"That's excellent."

Immediately.

He lightly raised his hand, and an ancient-looking cultivation technique emanating a mysterious aura was about to be stored back into his system's backpack.

That technique was the teaching material the system issued to him after he took Zhou Tianming as a disciple.

On the cover of the teaching material, four large characters were written: 《Chaos Heaven Record》.

These four characters seemed to contain endless mysteries, with a faint light flowing within.

Zhou Tianming's originally casual gaze swept over it.

In an instant.

As if struck by a thunderbolt, his whole body stiffened instantly, his eyes widened, and he stared fixedly at that technique manual.

His lips slightly parted, and for a moment he could not speak.

After a while.

Only then, having difficulty swallowing a mouthful of saliva from his shock, he stammered to Lin Yang: "Mas... Master..."

"Is... this cultivation technique perhaps the legendary Emperor-level technique 《Chaos Heaven Record》?"

Lin Yang's expression remained calm, his gaze gentle as he looked at him and lightly nodded: "Exactly."

"This cultivation technique appears to be divided into upper, middle, and lower volumes, complete and intact."

Lin Yang said slowly.

Upon hearing this, especially the words "upper, middle, and lower volumes, complete and intact," Zhou Tianming's whole body trembled, and he continually exhaled hot breaths from his mouth.

Lin Yang continued: "This cultivation technique was obtained by me by chance; since you already have a cultivation technique and presumably lack nothing, I will put it away for now."

Having said that, Lin Yang made a move to put that 《Chaos Heaven Record》 back into his storage ring.

Suddenly!

Zhou Tianming reacted instantly, taking a swift step forward.

He knelt heavily on both knees, raised his hands high, and looked eagerly at Lin Yang and the technique.

"Don't!"

"Master!"

"I want it, I desire it!"

"I really, really want it."

Zhou Tianming's eyes burned with fervor and urgency, his former composure gone.

After all, in his previous life, after becoming an emperor he endured countless hardships, expended immense effort, and finally found the lower volume of the Chaos Heavenly Record, which was merely a fragment.

Now a complete Chaos Heavenly Record, containing upper, middle, and lower volumes, lies before him—how could he not need it?

He didn't even have time to wonder why Lin Yang possessed such a thing.

He urgently said, "Master, I desperately need this; I especially require it. Please grant it to me, Master, and I will be grateful and diligently cultivate, not failing your kindness."

Lin Yang saw Zhou Tianming's excited state, secretly amused but feigning contemplation, and said, "Alright, since you are so eager, I as your master will bestow it upon you."

"May you use this skill well and not disappoint my expectations."

Immediately, he raised his hand slightly and passed the Chaos Heavenly Record to Zhou Tianming.

"Yes!"

"As you command!"

"Disciple will faithfully follow your teachings!"

Zhou Tianming, as if obtaining a supreme treasure, trembled as he received the Chaos Heavenly Record, carefully holding it to his chest as if it were the world's most precious treasure.

The senior inside the Azure Ring shook his head and smiled, calmly saying, "Look, his soft-spoken demeanor is truly realistic."

Li Yilan smiled and said, "Senior, you really understand my master more and more."

Upon hearing that.

Yet the senior inside the Azure Ring suddenly fell silent.

Understanding aside, she wants to take Lin Yang as her master.

It's a pity, Lin Yang might not accept her as a disciple...

————————

Seeing this, Ye Xiaozhi at the side also smiled slightly and said, "Junior brother, you now also have an Emperor-level technique; from now on you must cultivate diligently, lest you disappoint your master."

"I will, I will."

Zhou Tianming nodded repeatedly, then suddenly seemed to realize something, turning to Ye Xiaozhi and asking.

"You mean, I now also have an Emperor-level technique?"

"Could it be that you also have Emperor-level techniques?"

"Mm-hmm!"

Ye Xiaozhi smiled faintly and said, "I cultivate the Shadow Assassination Heart Sutra, given by my master."

Then.

Li Yilan also said, "I cultivate the Myriad Dao Sword Heart True Explanation, also given by my master."

Boom!

When Zhou Tianming heard their responses, he suddenly froze.

As an emperor, he had long heard of these two Emperor-level techniques, yet his two senior sisters cultivated them.

And they were given by Lin Yang?

Heavens!

"Just what kind of person is my master?"

Zhou Tianming had already been stunned.

Lin Yang merely smiled, then slowly said, "Alright, since you have obtained the technique, first familiarize yourself with it; if you encounter any difficulties in cultivation or have any questions, feel free to come ask me."

"Yes!"

"As you command!"

Led by Zhou Tianming, the three replied in unison.

And at this moment!

Hum!

A streak of flowing light descended upon Heaven Dao Peak.

Lin Yang raised his head to look.

This person was precisely the Fifth Elder of the Azure Cloud Sect's Elder Council.

Lin Yang looked at the Fifth Elder, smiling and asking, "Fifth Elder, how do you have the time to come to my Heaven Dao Peak?"

The Fifth Elder glanced around; the spiritual energy here seemed to have increased somewhat, how amazing.

However, he looked at Lin Yang, smiling and said, "Sect Master Lin, I am acting on the Grand Elder's orders to specially invite you to the Elder Council's meeting hall to discuss the matters of the Azure Cloud Sect's Grand Tournament."

Upon hearing that.

Lin Yang slightly startled.

"Is the Azure Cloud Sect's Grand Tournament coming up so soon?"

However!

Lin Yang's gaze turned cold again.

According to his agreement with Sword Peak's chief Li Mu, at the Azure Cloud Sect Grand Tournament he will lead Li Yatou to challenge Sword Peak.

It's also time to fulfill the promise……….
