"[Heaven Splitting Wave] is the secret martial art from Asura Demon Sect, right? I wonder if that Elder Yang knew about it... or he might even already learn [Heaven Splitting Wave] because he said that he was the former patriarch of Asura Demon Sect before." Tang Li Xue recalled the secret that Elder Yang had told her in the carriage before.
"Former patriarch of Asura Demon Sect? Maybe before I entered Asura Demon Sect since I am sure that I never meet with him inside there before." Tang Li Xue deduced.
But Tang Li Xue suddenly recalled the unknown memories of her and Elder Yang in the cave inside Moonlight Forest, and she frowned deeper.
This problem really nagged her mind, but she could not remember her first meeting with Elder Yang at all.
"Forget it! Since I cannot remember it now, I will think about it later. Who knows if I already remember it by then." Tang Li Xue murmured as she shook her head.
She decided to throw all of those things to the back of her mind and focus on what she needs to do right now.... preparing to depart toward Inheritance Ground Tablet tomorrow.
Tang Li Xue went back to her study room and took out Elder Yang's spatial ring from inside her clothes.
Tang Li Xue felt embarrassed and uncomfortable when she stared at Elder Yang's spatial ring, so she blurted out: "Should I just take it as my spoil of war? Or should I return this to him the next time I meet him?"
"Oh, well… I will use what I can use for now and return the rest to him the next time I meet again with him later… Of course, only if he asked for me to return it, and only if there is still something left after I used it… Uwehehehe…" Tang Li Xue giggled with a cunning smile on his face.
Although, she already said that, Tang Li Xue still moved the small mountain of Spirit Stones and several large chests of gold coins into her space pouch.
She only left all of the expensive-looking things and countless bottles of pills because she did not know the purpose of those things and how to use it properly.
In fact, Tang Li Xue probably would not return it if she knew how to use those things properly and the function of each of those pills.
"Eh, there are several martial art manuals stored here?!" Tang Li Xue took out several old scrolls from Elder Yang's spatial ring and examined it.
[Imperial Sky Sword Technique]
[Ten Thousand Swords Mystery]
[Ancient Aura Flowing Art]
[Mountain Splitting Slashes]
….
Most of these martial art manuals were about sword martial arts, but Tang Li Xue preferred to fight empty-handed.
It was because Tang Li Xue thought of using martial art not only in his human form but also when she was in her fox form too, and she certainly could not use any weapon such as a sword when she was in her fox form.
"I already copy [Drifting Cloud Palms] and [Crouching Tiger Claw] in [Transcendence State] from that Immortal Sword Sect's female disciple anyway. I am quite sure that those martial arts should be enough for me to use in Inheritance Ground Tablet later." Tang Li Xue pondered carefully.
"Besides that, I cannot afford to waste any of my Deity Coins or my time to learn these random martial arts. I only need 80 Deity Coins more to comprehend [Yin and Yang Chaotic Formula]. After that, I would certainly use most of my time to learn it, and I will not have any more time to learn anything else. Not to mention that I still must continue to learn about Inscription." Tang Li Xue muttered in depression as she rubbed her forehead to ease her headache.
"Sigh... So much to learn... but so little time to do it... and here I thought that I can take it easy since I have my perfect copy to do my work..." Tang Li Xue complained again.
Tang Li Xue shook her head and decided to train her [Art of Concealment] for a few hours before she decided to take out the Spirit Stones from her space pouch and used them for her cultivation.
A small mountain of Spirit Stones might look like a lot, but most of them were only low-tier Spirit Stones, while only several tens of them were mid-tier Spirit Stones.
Tang Li Xue gladly used them one by one to increase her cultivation further.
Without realizing it, the next morning has already arrived, and Tang Li Xue did not even have any free time to sleep until now.
Tang Li Xue woke Yaya and Little Loki up and took them to the bathroom to take a bath together.
After changed her clothes, Tang Li Xue brought Yaya and Little Loki out of her room to meet with Hei Yinghao and Bing Yi.
On contrary to Tang Li Xue's expectations, Hei Yinghao and Bing Yi actually looked more haggard than the sleepless Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue's mouth twitched, and she chided them with a tone filled with worry: "You two... sigh... it looks like you two are still felt bothered by what happened yesterday. Didn't I already tell you two to not think about it too much? So what if we really lost to them. We only need to train harder and become stronger than them soon."
Hei Yinghao and Bing Yi nodded at Tang Li Xue's words.
"That is why we are training and have sparring matches together for the entire night." Hei Yinghao replied while yawned widely.
Tang Li Xue shook her head and murmured: "With your condition right now, you two will certainly unable to complete today's training with Instructor Lan."
"Why not?! Our spirits are burning with passion! I am sure we will be able to pass all the training with a perfect score!" Hei Yinghao replied full of confidence.
Tang Li Xue chuckled and explained: "Do you remember what Instructor Lan had told us yesterday? Instructor Lan's normal training is already a nightmare for us. Moreover, she said that she would give us 'Special Hellish Level' Training. Could you even dare to imagine the intensity of your training today?"
Hei Yinghao and Bing Yi started to shudder in fear and horror, but it was already too late for them to regret it.
Tang Li Xue laughed and scared them about it several times when they were heading together to Instructor Mei Lan's place behind Education Department Building.
On the midway, Tang Li Xue bid her farewell to Yaya since Yaya would attend special training at the place of Instructor Mei Lan's mother from now on until Foxes Hunting Festival.
Tang Li Xue would certainly miss Yaya since Yaya was usually always with her every day, but she did not worry about Yaya at all since Instructor Mei Lan's mother was spoiling Yaya very much with so many nutritious and delicious snacks and foods.
In fact, even Instructor Mei Lan sometimes complained to Tang Li Xue that her mother was actually treating Yaya better than Instructor Mei Lan herself as her mother's biological daughter.
But usually, her mother only replied that Instructor Mei Lan had already grown up so old, while Yaya was still a few months baby, so Yaya needs mother's love more than the current Instructor Mei Lan.
"Sigh… I feel a bit lonely without Yaya. Little Loki… there are only the two of us right now. Let's do our best from now on!" Tang Li Xue said as she hugged Little Loki tightly in her embrace.
"Nyaa~!" As if trying to comfort Tang Li Xue, Little Loki licked her fingers a few times and lied down quietly in her embrace.
After Tang Li Xue and the others arrived at Instructor Mei Lan's place, Instructor Mei Lan let Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao entered the training ground first, while she explained about Inheritance Ground Tablet more clearly to Tang Li Xue.
"Inheritance Ground Tablet is the name of a place, but it is not really a place." Instructor Mei Lan told Tang Li Xue a confusing sentence.
Instructor Mei Lan giggled when she saw Tang Li Xue's confused expression.
Instructor Mei Lan gave a map of Inheritance Ground Tablet's location and two golden tickets to Tang Li Xue, then she told Tang Li Xue to open the map.
"As you can see from the map, the name of the place you should go is Cang Yuan Mountain. At the top of Cang Yuan Mountain, you can find a large stone tablet, and the name of that tablet is Inheritance Ground Tablet." Instructor Mei Lan patiently started explaining to Tang Li Xue.
"There is a sealed space inside Inheritance Ground Tablet that will only open once every five years, and only the human cultivators under Foundation Establishment Stage can enter there. But you must be careful since they can breakthrough into Foundation Establishment Stage AFTER they enter Inheritance Ground Tablet."
"The purpose of that place is to test the martial art prowess of the cultivators, so all of the people would need to undergo many trials after they enter there, and every time they pass a trial, they will get a reward. It is easy to understand, right?"
"In short, there are countless Ancient Inheritances inside Inheritance Ground Tablet, and all you need to do after you enter there is to find as many Inheritance Buildings as you can and pass all the trials there to get all the cultivation resources and empty those Inheritance Buildings. Your time inside Inheritance Ground Tablet is only one month, so use it carefully."
"After you are forced out from Inheritance Ground Tablet one month later, go back to Myriad Foxes Academy as soon as you can since Foxes Hunting Festival is only one or two weeks away after that. Do you understand?" Instructor Mei Lan concluded her long explanation and asked Tang Li Xue with a stern tone.
