Rise from a Poor Family: My Martial Arts Counterattack

Chapter 377 The Heart of Canglan
Elder Zhao's words were like a wake-up call to the disciples who were stunned in the main hall, bringing them to their senses.

What changes have occurred to the Canglan Treasure Book is none of their business.

Now that the martial arts inheritance of these stone tablets is directly revealed, they have the opportunity to comprehend the techniques that they could not comprehend before.

Swish!
The disciples, realizing what was happening, rushed towards the stone tablet immediately.

If you're quick, you'll get something; if you're slow, you won't.

Some disciples had just set off when they discovered that their target stone tablet had been snatched by others. Without thinking twice, they immediately rushed to the other stone tablets nearby.

The three hundred cultivation techniques that can be displayed in the Transmission Hall are all selected by the sect.

You won't lose out if you can learn any one of them.

When Zhao Yulin saw that his disciples had finally reacted, a smile appeared on his face. Then, he looked at the withered old man in the corner, his eyes filled with respect, and he nodded almost imperceptibly to him.

As an important place in the sect, the Hall of Transmission of Skills is not only maintained by stewards, but also has senior uncles in charge.

Although my uncle is not a Myriad Manifestations Realm expert, he has long since cultivated to the sixth level of the Innate Realm.

However, apart from the elders, none of the stewards and disciples knew the identity of their martial uncle.

After bowing, Zhao Yulin looked toward the center of the hall. At this moment, the Canglan energy of the Canglan Treasure Book was surging out as if it were free, like a tide washing over the surrounding area of ​​the hall.

Amidst the tide of Canglan energy, Lin Chen's figure approached the Canglan Treasure Book step by step until he was only a foot away from it. Suddenly, a pure blue pillar of Canglan energy descended from above the hall.

The beam of light enveloped Lin Chen and the Canglan Treasure Book, and even a Xiantian expert could not detect what was happening inside the beam at this moment.

"All irrelevant persons, please leave the main hall."

After receiving a hint from his master, Zhao Yulin spoke up, and those disciples who had failed to snatch the stone tablet could only regretfully withdraw.

Soon, the main hall was empty except for the old man.

But at this moment, the square was filled with thousands of disciples, a dense, overwhelming crowd.

There were outer disciples and inner disciples, and standing at the front was a man dressed in black.

"Even Senior Brother Qiao has come."

"There's nothing we can do. Senior Brother Lin caused quite a stir today. It's not uncommon for a direct disciple to score over 200 points in the assessment, but Senior Brother Lin is the first to cause such a change in the Canglan Treasure Manual."

Everyone present, including both inner and outer disciples, recognized Qiao Yuan.

Although Qiao Yuan is not ranked first among the inner disciples, everyone knows that this is only because Senior Brother Qiao joined the sect later and was at a disadvantage due to his age. If Senior Brother Qiao had the same amount of time as those others, he would definitely be ranked first.

Even among the outer disciples, Qiao Yuan's popularity surpasses that of the others.

The outer disciples of the Canglan Sect are all quite young, most of them under twenty years old. Therefore, in their hearts, Qiao Yuan, who is under twenty, is the one they admire the most.

"Qiao Yuan is here."

When Zhao Yulin saw Qiao Yuan appear, a smile appeared on his old face. Lin Chen had already been snatched away by that old man Du, and now the disciple he most wanted to take on was Qiao Yuan.

The process of Old Man Du taking Lin Chen as his disciple also gave him some inspiration, namely, to build a relationship so that he could play the emotional card later.

"This disciple greets Elder Zhao."

Qiao Yuan bowed and looked towards the main hall: "Elder Zhao, I heard that Junior Brother Lin's Canglan Treasure Book has undergone changes. Could you please enlighten me?"

"I can't find the answer."

Zhao Yulin thought to himself, because he didn't know why the Canglan Treasure Book had changed like this.

He was only sent by the sect leader to maintain order in the Transmission Hall. Perhaps only his martial uncle and the sect leader know why the Canglan Treasure Scripture has undergone such a change.

"This matter involves sect secrets, and I cannot tell you at this time."

Zhao Yulin stroked his beard and smiled, his face displaying an inscrutable expression.

"Disciple understands."

Qiao Yuan didn't ask any more questions, but there was a hint of resentment in his eyes.

Before Lin Chen arrived, he was the number one genius under the age of twenty in the Canglan Sect. He didn't care about the senior brothers who ranked ahead of him among the inner disciples. He was not as strong as them, but that was only because he had cultivated for fewer years.

If he were given the same number of years to cultivate, his strength would definitely surpass those of his senior brothers.

Even though Lin Chen passed the personal disciple assessment and scored over 200 points, he was only somewhat surprised and did not think that Lin Chen was stronger than himself.

The reason he is not a direct disciple is not because he is not qualified, but because he wants to participate in this year's inner disciple competition. If he becomes a direct disciple, he will not be qualified to participate in the inner disciple competition.

If he waits until he finishes the inner sect competition and then chooses to become an elder's disciple and participates in the personal disciple assessment, his score will inevitably be lower than Lin Chen's.

This is his confidence.

But now Lin Chen's comprehension of the Canglan Treasure Book has brought about such a huge change, whereas when he first comprehended the Canglan Treasure Book, it did not cause such a change.

If this change were a bad one, it wouldn't be a big deal. But from the martial arts techniques revealed on other stone tablets, and from Elder Zhao's instruction that other unrelated disciples should not enter the hall, Qiao Yuan knew in his heart that this was a good thing.

Faced with the reality that had already occurred, even if he had great confidence in himself, he had to admit that he had lost to Lin Chen in terms of comprehending the Canglan Manual.

……

The main hall of the Canglan Sect.

Ji Cangtian sat cross-legged above the main hall, a hint of anticipation in his eyes.

"The Heart of Canglan, our Canglan Sect has not had a disciple who can comprehend the Heart of Canglan for three hundred years. Finally, we have found another disciple who has the potential to comprehend the Heart of Canglan."

The Canglan Sect has some secrets that even the sect elders are not qualified to know.

One of them is the Heart of the Azure Waves.

The first patriarch of the Canglan Sect left behind a cultivation technique, which enabled him to become a top expert in the Yan Dynasty, and later he founded the Canglan Sect.

To cultivate this technique, one must be able to condense the heart of the vast ocean.

This martial art is called the Canglan Divine Scripture.

……

……

"Is this a surrender to me?"

Within the pillar of light formed by the condensed Canglan energy, Lin Chen discovered that the Canglan Scripture no longer rejected him. Canglan energy continuously flowed into his body, slowly merging with the Canglan energy within him.

The next moment, Lin Chen raised an eyebrow. These azure energies did not gather in his dantian, but instead headed towards his heart.

At the same time, the pages of the Canglan Manual in front of him slowly turned, and a line of text appeared before Lin Chen: "The Canglan is a vast and boundless sea, its depths unfathomable."

It connects to the celestial ruins above, reflecting the constellations of the Zhoutian heavens as the eyes of the vast ocean;
It connects to the deepest hells, holding the key to reincarnation amidst countless calamities throughout history.
