Chapter 535 Blood of the Divine Turtle
Liu Yuan's words surprised Liang Jin slightly.

The "Mahagala Dharma Protector Practice" is a secret technique passed down only by the Amitabha King School, and only the Dharma King himself is qualified to practice it.

Back in the Hidden Wind Valley, the Boundless Dharma King and the Bull-Headed King used the "Mahagala Dharma Protector Technique" as bait to successfully lure the Star Demon Sea Master, Ming Cangwu, into a trap, ultimately killing him in one fell swoop.

When the Ox-Headed King deliberately destroyed the "Mahagara Protectorate Technique," Liang Jin was unable to obtain this martial art.

Even after destroying the Wuliang Mingwang Sect, he still failed to obtain the "Mahagala Dharma Protector Merit".

Liang Jin still thought that this martial art had been lost.

When Liu Yuan claimed that she had secretly memorized the martial art using her photographic memory, Liang Jin did not entirely believe her.

It now appears that Liu Yuan has indeed mastered the "Mahagala Protector Technique".

However, Liang Jin wasn't particularly interested in this.

After all, he doesn't lack Earth-level martial arts skills right now.

"Is this martial arts skill really that good?"

He asked listlessly.

At least for now, Liang Jin's Earth-level martial arts skills are sufficient.

What he lacks is a Heaven-level martial art.

Liu Yuan also noticed Liang Jin's listlessness, and she said seriously:

"The Mahakasyapa Dharma Protector Technique is not an ordinary Earth-level martial art; in fact, it is not an ordinary martial art at all."

"When I first saw the Mahakala Dharma Protector Skill, I thought it was an incredible martial art that no human could possibly master."

"It wasn't until I went to the Scripture Cave of the Boundless Bright King Sect, browsed through the scriptures there, and communicated with the Laughing Bright King that I learned the origin of this martial art."

"The Mahakala Dharma Protector's Practice actually comes from the Great Wilderness Blood Marrow Wall in the Library Cave."

"After obtaining the Great Wilderness Blood Marrow Jade, the first Dharma King studied its mysteries until he deciphered part of the Dragon Armor Divine Book. Based on the content projected by the Great Wilderness Blood Marrow Jade, he created the 'Mahagala Dharma Protector Technique'."

Upon hearing this, Liang Jin finally became somewhat interested.

He only knew that the method of making Yin Bone Puppet came from the Jade Cong in Burial Dragon Ridge, and that was only a part of the knowledge about Jade Cong.

Unexpectedly, the origin of the "Mahagala Dharma Protector Merit" is similar to that of the jade cong.

After all, Liang Jin believed that the jade scepter, the jade cong, and the Great Wilderness Blood Marrow Jade all had some common connection.

"Is this 'Mahagala Dharma Protector Practice' truly effective?"

"But I don't think the Boundless Dharma King was that powerful back then."

Liang Jin questioned.

Although the Boundless Dharma King was highly skilled, in a life-or-death struggle, he was probably no match for Zhen Lei, who had condensed martial intent.

The "Mahagala Dharma Protector Practice" is a closely guarded secret practice within the Amitabha School, which only the Dharma King is qualified to cultivate.

Liu Yuan said:

"That's because, apart from the first few generations of Dharma Kings, the subsequent Dharma Kings have been unable to cultivate the Mahakala Dharma Protector Practice to the ninth level of perfection."

"According to the secret scriptures of the Wuliang Mingwang Sect, after the Maha Gyaluo Dharma Protector Technique is perfected, it can manifest the wrathful form of Mahakala, the Great Black Deity, with boundless power."

"In ancient times, the Boundless Bright King Sect relied on this divine skill to become the state religion of the Ancient Elephant Kingdom, enjoying unparalleled glory."

Upon hearing this, Liang Jin nodded slightly.

The ancient Elephant Kingdom was indeed glorious in ancient times, with a vast territory that included the entirety of present-day Shalli Kingdom and most of the Black Dragon Dynasty's lands.

It would be unrealistic for the Boundless Bright King Sect to become the state religion of the Ancient Elephant Kingdom and to place divine authority above royal authority without sufficient strength.

After Qingyi Tower destroyed the Wuliang Mingwang Sect, Liang Jin had not yet read through the books in the Sutra Cave, but he did not expect that Liu Yuan would actually read through them all.

It seems that knowledge is power, and this saying is indeed true.

Liu Yuan continued:

"The Mahakala Protector Mantra has nine levels. The first three levels are not easy, but most Vidyarajas can successfully cultivate them. However, the first three levels are only the foundation and do not show great power."

"But after the third level, the power will increase to a terrifying level with each level you master. However, after the third level, certain conditions must be met to cultivate. If the cultivation conditions are not met, you will not be able to make any progress even if you cultivate for a lifetime."

"And the necessary condition is the blood of the divine tortoise in the desert."

When Liang Jin heard the last part, he looked up in surprise.

A divine turtle?

What is that?
Could it be a mythical beast from a legend?

But since even mythical beasts like giant snakes exist in this world, it might be plausible that there are multiple divine turtles.

Faced with Liang Jin's questioning gaze, Liu Yuan nodded in response:

"That's right, it's the divine tortoise. At least that's what the scriptures of the Boundless Bright King Sect record."

"It is said that in ancient times, in the vast desert, there was a divine tortoise that hibernated at the bottom of the sand. That divine tortoise had incredible power."

"It is said that the divine tortoise's spiritual power can bring prosperity to the nation for thousands of years."

"The king of the Ulan Kingdom, who ruled the desert at the time, attempted to capture the divine tortoise in order to ensure the longevity of the Ulan Kingdom."

"Afterwards, the Kingdom of Ulan mobilized all its resources, gathering the strongest warriors of the time to fight the divine tortoise in the desert. It was during that great battle that the strongest warriors of the time obtained the blood of the divine tortoise. The first Dharma King was also surprised to find that with the help of the blood of the divine tortoise, he actually mastered the 'Mahagala Dharma Protector Technique'."

"In that battle, the peerless masters of the Ulan Kingdom injured the divine tortoise, but the divine tortoise successfully escaped and disappeared without a trace. The Ulan Kingdom also suffered heavy losses and was greatly weakened. It never recovered and eventually perished a few years later, replaced by the newly rising Ancient Elephant Kingdom."

"The first few generations of Dharma Kings of the Wuliang Mingwang School were able to master the Maha Gyaluo Dharma Protector Technique by relying on the blood of the divine tortoise they obtained in the past."

"However, as time passed, the blood of the divine tortoise was eventually exhausted, which made it impossible for the successive Dharma Kings to master the 'Mahagala Dharma Protection Technique'. As a result, the strength of the Boundless Bright King Sect plummeted, and the ancient elephant kingdom was eventually wiped out by history."

Upon hearing this, Liang Jin realized that what Liu Yuan was talking about was history from a thousand years ago.

It's difficult to distinguish between truth and falsehood in these historical accounts.

However, Liang Jin had some suspicions in his mind.

Cultivating using the blood of the divine turtle? It feels somewhat similar to the Youhuan Clan.

The Youhuan race also gains power by fusing the blood bestowed by the gods they worship.

Liang Jin immediately asked:

"Do you know where to obtain the blood of the divine turtle?"

Liu Yuan shook her head:

"Even the Boundless Bright King Sect searched for a new divine tortoise blood in the Western Desert for a thousand years without success, so how could I possibly know?"

Upon hearing this, Liang Jin said irritably:

"That means even if I obtain the 'Mahagala Dharma Protector Technique,' I will not be able to cultivate beyond the third level; it will be like a chicken rib."

Liu Yuan said:
"What the Boundless Bright King Sect cannot do, you may be able to do as well."

"Now the Green Robe Tower has become the overlord of the Western Desert, even more powerful than the Boundless Bright King Sect."

"What's more... you always manage to create miracles."

Upon hearing this, Liang Jin couldn't help but laugh.

When did Liu Yuan start to think so highly of herself?

He was about to make a joke when he noticed that Liu Yuan's eyes were full of seriousness.

This surprised Liang Jin slightly.

You should know that Liu Yuan has an inherent arrogance, and Liang Jin has often been looked down upon by her.

It's strange that Liang Jin has caught his eye.

"Okay, I'm a little interested in the Mahakala Protector Practice."

"Tell me, what do you want to exchange it for?"

Liang Jin asked.

Every time Liu Yuan gave him a high-level martial arts technique, she had ulterior motives. Liang Jin was already used to all of this.

If Liu Yuan's request is excessive, then Liang Jin will refuse it outright.

Liu Yuan shook her head and replied:

"I have been grateful to you for taking care of me for so long."

"Consider this manual my way of repaying you."

Upon hearing this, Liang Jin immediately refused:
"No, just tell me what you want."

He knew perfectly well that what's free is often the most expensive.

Especially for someone like Liu Yuan, she would never do a losing deal.

Liu Yuan seemed a little angry upon hearing this. She couldn't help but glare at Liang Jin, and hesitated several times before speaking.

But in the end, she simply smiled slightly:
"I'm asking you to help my Liu family avenge our family by killing Eunuch Wang Jin. Do you agree?"

Liang Jin shook his head directly:

"Of course not possible."

"One manual is far from enough."

Just kidding. The Grand Eunuch is a powerful figure in the Great Qian Dynasty, second only to the emperor. His martial arts skills are unfathomable. Even Liang Jin couldn't withstand a single glance from him back then.

Sending Liang in to kill Wang Jin with just a broken manual that can't be cultivated is a joke, isn't it?
Liu Yuan's smile deepened:

"You're right, I know it's not enough."

"Sooner or later, I will have accumulated enough capital to ask you to take action."

"Consider this 'Mahagala Dharma Protector's Practice' as my advance payment of sincerity."

Upon hearing this, Liang Jin looked at Liu Yuan intently.

He wanted to figure out whether Liu Yuan was really joking or using a joke to express her true feelings.
A moment later, Liang Jin also laughed:

"Okay, consider this a small deposit from you."

"With the deposit paid, I will definitely not accept any requests from others to kill Wang Jin in the future."

"Once you've saved enough money, I'll help you with something."

He was joking too.

Liu Yuan stopped laughing and became serious, beginning to teach Liang Jin the "Mahagala Dharma Protector Technique".

As the carriage continued its journey, it was almost dark when Liu Yuan finally finished her instruction.

Liang Jin was also somewhat surprised upon hearing this:

"This 'Mahagara Dharma Protector Practice' is so strange?"

He now understood how Liu Yuan felt when she first saw this cultivation technique.

The Mahakala Dharma Protector's Skill is like martial arts, yet it is not like martial arts.

Although it does include a section on martial arts training, some of its content differs significantly from normal martial arts.

Some of these stories even involve people who have altered their bodies through martial arts, and these alterations are different from those of ordinary people.

If the "Hundred Evil Body Technique" of the Hualongmen only makes people taller and has some strange changes, it is still within the scope of human thinking and understanding.

Then the "Mahagala Dharma Protection Technique" of the Boundless Bright King Sect is so powerful that it can make people less than human—with three faces and four arms.

What normal person looks like that?
However, Liang Jin didn't mind, as he had already gone further and further down the path of inhumanity.

The methods used in the first three stages of cultivation, in particular, surprised Liang Jin.

"Dual cultivation between men and women?"

Liang Jin looked up at Liu Yuan:

"Miss Liu, are you implying something to me?"

Upon hearing this, Liu Yuan said irritably:
"You're overthinking things!"

"I live for revenge; my heart is filled with hatred, not with matters of men and women."

"Now that I have passed on the secret manual to you, if you can find the blood of the divine turtle in the future, then cultivate diligently."

"This martial art is extraordinary. If one can master it to perfection, its power will be terrifying."

"At least in the secret scriptures of the Wuliangmingwang sect, it is said to possess the power of gods and Buddhas."

After saying that, Liu Yuan left the carriage.

Liang Jin was still pondering the matter of dual cultivation between men and women.

He constantly sought ways to protect himself, always trying to improve himself and running around in different places.

All things considered, he really hadn't thought about matters between men and women.

Now that he's going to practice dual cultivation, this is something he has to face squarely.

The dual cultivation of the "Mahagala Dharma Protector Practice" is not a simple matter of yin and yang replenishment, but rather a balance of yin and yang.

In other words, those who cultivate together with Liang Jin can also experience a rapid increase in their skill level.

"Who should I find for dual cultivation?"

Liang Jin couldn't help but start to think.

Liu Yuan clearly refused, and Liang Jin never even considered having dual cultivation with her.

Besides Liu Yuan, Liang Jin also had many other women around him.

But after looking around, he found that there weren't many suitable people.

Fu Shi, one of the Seven Souls Youths, is a girl, but she has always regarded Liang Jin as her elder brother and there is no sign of romantic feelings between them. Liang Jin is not in a position to force her.

Leng You of Xingmohai had been looking for opportunities for his daughter, Mi Qianmeng, but unfortunately, Mi Qianmeng was too lazy, and Liang Jin was too lazy to ask her to cultivate together.

Mu Zheluo had always wanted to introduce his daughter to Liang Jin, but Liang Jin did not fully trust him and it was impossible for him to bring his daughter along for dual cultivation.

Leng You is a good person; she entrusted her life and fortune to Liang Jin, so she is someone you can trust. It's a pity that Leng You is far away in the Western Desert and not by my side.

After considering all the options, only one target remains.

Liang Jin also stepped out of the carriage.

The sky outside was dark, and night was enveloping the earth.

Liang Jin waved to Mu Zheluo, who was leading the group. Mu Zheluo immediately understood and ordered everyone to set up camp and rest on the spot.

Soon, bonfires were lit, and the people, who had been traveling all day, began to prepare food.

Liang Jin's gaze locked onto a young girl.

The girl was stunningly beautiful, dressed in a Western Desert-style dance costume. A golden ribbon adorned her waist, revealing her small navel, and tiny bells tied to the ribbon swayed gently with her steps, emitting melodious sounds.

She has a graceful figure, is delicate and boneless, and every move she makes is charming and captivating.

This girl was Xiao Wan.

When she noticed Liang Jin's gaze, she turned around and bowed respectfully to him.

Xiao Wan was originally the daughter of the princess of the extinct Ju Huan Kingdom, and she always regarded Liang Jin as her master.

Her looks and figure are both superb, and her dancing is especially outstanding.

Liang Jin felt that she was the most suitable candidate at the moment.

So he raised his hand and waved to Xiao Wan.

Xiao Wan quickly came over and followed Liang Jin into the carriage...
