Imperial Cultivation-Chapter 339 - 336: Divine Guard

```html

He has always been very vigilant towards Wentian Cliff.

Previously, there was some hesitation, unable to determine the true origins and purposes of the two individuals.

Now it is already possible to judge that they are indeed experts from the Heavenly Hidden Sect.

Their auras seemed not to fluctuate or leak out, unlike those who practice martial arts.

Yet, after an emotional disturbance, there would be a faint flow of aura, a slight anomaly.

After emotions calmed down, the aura would disappear again.

The mental method they practiced is indeed profound, it should be the Heavenly Concealing Technique.

"The weakness of Wentian Cliff..." The chubby middle-aged man sighed and shook his head, "I really can’t figure it out."

Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said, "No weaknesses at all?"

"If there’s a weakness, maybe only one - the sparse population and high demands on the disciples’ qualifications."

"Hmm, having fewer people is indeed a weakness." Chu Zhiyuan nodded, "But their affiliation with the Da Zhen Court can compensate for that weakness."

"Exactly." The chubby middle-aged man said helplessly, "So it’s hard to find any weaknesses."

"What about martial arts?" Chu Zhiyuan asked, "Is there any way to restrain the Wentian Secret Technique?"

"...No." The chubby middle-aged man sighed helplessly, "Only our Heavenly Hidden Pendant can resist their prying, but the Guiji Pearl can work too."

Chu Zhiyuan could feel their despair.

"Is there really no other way?" Chu Zhiyuan asked. freēwēbηovel.c૦m

The chubby middle-aged man smiled bitterly, "The Wentian Sword Technique is formidable, the Wentian Secret Technique is also unfathomable, they are the most top-tier miracle techniques in the world, truly unknown what weaknesses they have."

Chu Zhiyuan said, "Can you let me see their Wentian Sword Technique and Wentian Secret Technique?"

"That’s impossible." The two shook their heads simultaneously.

Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said, "Why is it impossible?"

He actually felt it was very difficult too.

If these miracle techniques could really be leaked, they would have been leaked long ago. The reason they haven’t is definitely related to their method of transmission.

Just like the Taiyin Great Refining Form, even if one has mastered this technique, it’s impossible to pass it on to disciples.

One must personally go to the Profound Yin Palace to obtain the transmission within it.

The Wentian Secret Technique, being such a profound technique, likely also has such a unique method of transmission.

Of course, it might also be because of the existence of the Wentian Secret Technique that Wentian Cliff’s martial arts can avoid being leaked.

Through the Wentian Secret Technique, they can cut off the possibility of leakage one step ahead.

"The disciples of Wentian Cliff who do not have enough cultivation will not descend the mountain."

"The cultivation of Wentian Cliff’s disciples is exceptionally strong and more importantly, they all possess unique treasures for escaping."

"Oh——?"

"As far as I know, it’s a treasure."

"Hmm, a peculiar jade pendant with the character ’Qi’ on it."

"A jade pendant with the character ’Qi’?"

Chu Zhiyuan thought for a moment, and he hadn’t seen this on Cheng Tianfeng.

The slender middle-aged man coldly smiled, "Once unable to win, activate this jade pendant, and one’s speed will increase several times, disappearing without a trace in the blink of an eye, even the Great Grandmaster can’t catch up."

The chubby middle-aged man said helplessly, "This jade pendant not only accelerates but also protects the body, even if one is severely injured and near death, it can protect a single breath, allowing for a quick escape."

Chu Zhiyuan said, "Then they surely also have life-saving spirit pills to sustain a breath."

The slender middle-aged man said solemnly, "Exactly."

The chubby middle-aged man shook his head helplessly, "So it’s almost impossible to kill a Wentian Cliff disciple, let alone obtain Wentian Cliff’s martial arts."

Chu Zhiyuan was thoughtful.

This information is very important.

If unknown, a single strike might be blocked by the Heavenly Mechanism Armor, thus losing the chance for a second strike, and the person would have run away directly.

Even though my Qinggong is good, it can’t surpass that of a Great Grandmaster.

"A peculiar character..." Chu Zhiyuan said, "What is its appearance?"

"I can’t describe it, but it should be a peculiar symbol."

Chu Zhiyuan pondered.

Could it be an unmemorable character?

"Princely Heir, now that you have the Guiji Pearl, you need to be even more cautious."

"Oh——?"

"They will surely find a way to spy on you. Once they discover you have the Guiji Pearl, they will certainly find a way to steal it, or even use others to do the dirty work."

"Do they conspire with the Evil Sect?"

"Whether they conspire or not, no one knows. Our sect suspects they conspire with the Secret Shadow Sect."

"...Is there any evidence?"

Chu Zhiyuan didn’t really believe this.

Wentian Cliff doesn’t need to conspire with the Secret Shadow Sect, especially with the Wentian Secret Technique, there’s even less need.

If they truly wanted to kill, they would just push things in the direction they wanted behind the scenes.

Such a miracle technique is truly astonishing.

Thankfully, it can only spy on some fragments of the future, or they’d truly be invincible in the world.

No wonder the Cliff Master of Wentian Cliff is always the Da Zhen State Preceptor.

With such miracle techniques, being a State Preceptor can greatly assist the Da Zhen Court.

"It’s just speculation, without solid evidence, it’s hard to say true or false."

"Thank you both for the warning." Chu Zhiyuan clasped his fists, "I wonder if your sect has any thoughts of cooperating with me?"

"Cooperation?" The chubby elder was startled.

The slender elder was also puzzled.

Chu Zhiyuan nodded, "Your sect helps me gather intelligence, and I provide some assistance within my capability."

The two shook their heads without hesitation.

Chu Zhiyuan said, "You’re bound to be futile if you try to deal with Wentian Cliff alone, why not cooperate with me and help me deal with Wentian Cliff."

"Princely Heir, do you dare to confront Wentian Cliff now?"

"Ultimately, there will be a day when I will clash with Wentian Cliff, now is the time to start preparing."

The two nodded.

This was also their reason for coming.

As the strongest contender for the Da Jing imperial throne, Chu Zhiyuan is sure to face off against Wentian Cliff.

If he truly becomes Da Jing’s new Emperor, then surely goes head to head with Wentian Cliff.

Everyone knows that the alliance between Da Zhen and Da Jing is only a temporary measure.

The two countries have split and come together many times before.

They are together now; surely they will split in the future.

Wentian Cliff, for the sake of Da Zhen, is bound to confront Da Jing, and thus will face Chu Zhiyuan.

Chu Zhiyuan said, "If my Da Jing could deal with Wentian Cliff, we would have done so already, now I need your sect’s assistance."

"..."

The two were hesitant.

The Heavenly Hidden Sect just wanted to give Chu Zhiyuan a Heavenly Hidden Pendant to help him avoid Wentian Cliff’s prying.

They weren’t planning on further aiding.

In truth, they couldn’t offer much help.

Chu Zhiyuan said, "The information about Wentian Cliff has been scarce, too mysterious, does your sect have more detailed information?"

"Yes." They responded without hesitation.

Chu Zhiyuan smiled, "Does your sect have Innate Perfection experts?"

The two exchanged a glance.

They certainly knew of the Martial Arts Hall incident and didn’t doubt its authenticity.

It’s impossible for Da Jing to fabricate such a bizarre event, it should be true.

Chu Zhiyuan said, "How about we help each other, watch each other’s backs, and jointly deal with Wentian Cliff?"

"...We’ll need to discuss this." The slender middle-aged man said solemnly.

Chu Zhiyuan nodded, "Cooperating with me will remain top-secret, you can discuss it thoroughly."

"Yes."

Suddenly, Chu Zhiyuan spoke, "By the way, does your sect know about Da Lie’s Netherworld Secret Guard?"

"Netherworld Secret Guard?" The two were astonished.

Chu Zhiyuan felt he hit a nerve.

Judging by their expressions, they actually knew about the Netherworld Secret Guard.

"Netherworld Secret Guard is also called Netherworld Divine Guard." The slender middle-aged man said solemnly.

Chu Zhiyuan frowned, "Divine Guard?"

"Yes, Divine Guard." The slender middle-aged man slowly nodded, "That’s all I know, farewell."

"Thank you." Chu Zhiyuan clasped his fists as he sent them off.

Watching them leave, Chu Zhiyuan sat down, a solemn look on his face.

Upon hearing the word ’Divine,’ he immediately became vigilant and understood what they meant.

Divine Guard, Netherworld Divine Guard.

Could it really be the Divine Dao?

It’s hard to believe that the secret guards of Emperor Da Lie actually cultivate in the Divine Dao.

This is definitely a shocking and world-shaking secret.
