After I Became a Divine Monarch, the Sect Wants Me to Marry In-Chapter 339 - 258: Why Does the Immortal Force Me? (Part 2)

Chapter 339: Chapter 258: Why Does the Immortal Force Me? (Part 2)

Thus, he took out a few books and said, "Leader, here are the magic techniques and insights they wrote down."

There were a total of nine books.

Three books on cultivation techniques and insights, and six books on magic techniques and insights.

The cultivation techniques belonged to Skywind Palace, Heavenly Yang Sect, and Linghua Valley.

Gu An glanced at them briefly; they were of no use to him, but the insights were good.

Putting the three books down, Gu An said, "Make another copy of these three, and submit them along with the report at the end of the month to the Sect."

Although they were cultivation techniques from the three major sects, they were just common techniques and not worth much.

It was unlikely they would write down the core cultivation techniques.

After all, if they wrote them down and left, they might die.

In the end, Gu An focused his attention on the last six books.

The cultivation techniques were lacking, but if the magic techniques were not well-documented, it would be excessive.

So, these people would write some useful magic techniques to some extent.

"These three are written by Duan Yulin," Pang Wen pointed to the first three and said.

He then continued introducing, Nangong Qian wrote two books, and Zhuo Shide wrote one.

Gu An first reviewed the three magic techniques written by Duan Yulin, namely Qiuxin Seven Swords, Three Qi to Six Swords, and Divine Cloud Six Steps.

The Qiuxin Seven Swords seemed slightly stronger than his Pingqiu Three Styles. The Three Qi to Six Swords were quite interesting, refining the sword body with spirit, energy, and essence, then transforming it into sword attacks—the stronger the spirit, energy, and essence, the stronger the attack.

But it fell short, with significant consumption.

As for the footwork, Divine Cloud Six Steps was a technique for flying and traveling swiftly.

It was slightly inferior to Vertical Earth Golden Light, but indeed quite strong, belonging to the Primordial Spirit level of magic techniques.

It could be said to be the strongest of the three.

Setting the books aside, Gu An said, "Go handle the procedures, prepare, and release this Duan Yulin."

After a pause, he took the Three Qi to Six Swords from the three books and said, "Add this to the report as well."

Pang Wen nodded, slightly surprised within.

*Was he really going to release them?*

Gu An looked at Zhuo Shide’s magic techniques; they were just ordinary magic techniques, good to have in abundance, and suitable for Foundation Establishment Team Members to learn a few.

Finally, there were Nangong Qian’s, which were, respectively, Six Sounds Triple and Hundred Sounds Inquiry.

Gu An took a look; they were all related to sound and music.

The first one was for attack, the second was for bewitchment, which was actually her bewitchment technique.

However, the most interesting part was a sentence above.

To learn it, one must possess the Eight Sound Talent.

At one point, Gu An felt a bit sentimental.

*He originally wanted to ask the other party if they knew of the Eight Sound Talent.*

*It seemed like this was an unsolicited confession.*

*Originally, the opponent added this line partly to boast.*

*To let him know that he couldn’t learn the opponent’s magic techniques.*

*Who would have thought that he never intended to learn her techniques but to find out about the Eight Sound Talent.*

Putting the books away, Gu An finally said, "Stay with me for a day, come to get them tomorrow, and put them in the First Institute’s library. If you need them, just go and check them out and register."

"Additionally, while you can learn at any time, remember that one can neither chew what they haven’t bit, nor eat too much."

"Quality over quantity."

"Focus on improving your cultivation."

"Yes," Pang Wen said with a hint of excitement, "we can all learn?"

Upon receiving Gu An’s affirmation, the other party grew even more excited.

He then returned to relay the news to the others.

Shu Ci and others were all quite surprised.

Not only could they read them, but they could also learn from them.

*Since when did their treatment in the Outer Peak become so favorable?*

However, they were a bit curious about what Gu An intended to do by keeping them overnight.

*Copying or learning shouldn’t take so long, should it?*

*After all, they had others for copying.*

At this moment, Gu An returned to Heavenly Suspension Peak and, while the Blood Demon Divine Monarch was present, handed the books over to the other party, "See if there’s any issue."

Although he hadn’t received feedback from the Ring of Destiny, he still needed to check for problems.

The Fat Tiger read them earnestly.

Very excited, he was happy to work for his big brother; it was his greatest joy.

Soon, the Fat Tiger finished reading, "There were basically no issues, just some areas for improvement."

Out of curiosity, Gu An inquired, after which the Blood Demon Divine Monarch began pointing at the books, "Big brother, look at this, here the magic technique’s flow is somewhat clunky; if divided into three parts, it would be smoother. Also, here, it could pass smoothly in one part, but they insisted on dividing it into three—that’s the old habit of magic techniques."

"Back then, many people didn’t understand the new operational methods."

"Times are progressing; the more the body and meridians are explored, the more pathways there are."

*Times are progressing,* Gu An thought, feeling a bit strange. freewёbnoνel.com

*Times have changed, do they suit cultivation too?*

Nevertheless, he listened attentively.

*It was truly eye-opening.*

*The Blood Demon Divine Monarch was indeed formidable.*

At this time, the Blood Demon Divine Monarch, looking like a fat tiger, was quite excited.

The more useful the big brother found him, the safer he felt.

After mastering the magic techniques, Gu An finally asked about the Eight Sounds Divine Monarch.

"The Eight Sounds Divine Monarch should be a woman; back in the day, she was extremely powerful, looked down on everyone, and never proactively contacted anyone.

Now acting this way is quite atypical; either she changed after I died, or she’s similar to me, ruined." The Blood Demon Divine Monarch paused, then said, "I suspect, Little Blood, that this Dongfang Lingyun might indeed be the Eight Sounds Divine Monarch.

Furthermore, she might want someone with the Eight Sound Talent to possibly unravel some restrictions in her body."

"How can we communicate with her?" Gu An asked.

"That depends on you, big brother. Little Blood can only receive messages; communication requires secret techniques to contact her," the Blood Demon Divine Monarch said.

Gu An sat by the lake, tossing some peanuts to the noodles, silent.

*He now had someone with the Eight Sound Talent, but should he give it to her?*

*He kind of wanted to, but how could he ensure to get a reward in return?*

*Should he tell her the person was in the Outer Peak?*

*If she forced her way in, then the First Institute would be in danger.*

*If she wasn’t strong, it wouldn’t matter, but if she was strong, even he would be in danger.*

*Moreover, he still needed to complete Chu Meng’s task in the process.*

*Now, he had all conditions met; the only trouble was ensuring a safe transaction.*

While he pondered, Noodles tried several times to swim over and open its mouth, while Gu An pacified it with peanuts.

Until it rolled over belly up, foam at the mouth.

It fainted away.

By evening, Gu An still hadn’t thought of a good solution; all he could do was play it by ear.

Only while pondering at night did he notice the Divine Tree flickering.

"Big brother, big brother, the other side sent another message," Fat Tiger immediately ran out and said.

"What did they say?" Gu An asked.

"They expressed willingness to pay sufficient reward, as long as there is news of a person with the Eight Sound Talent," Fat Tiger said.

"Sufficient reward?" Gu An pondered for a moment, asking, "Can the secret technique specify a certain location?"

"It can," Fat Tiger nodded.

Gu An considered for a moment, deciding to give it a try.

...

In the nighttime.

The First Institute prison.

At this time, everyone was waiting.

Zeng Lan was delivering dinner one by one.

"Little girl, do you know what kind of person your leader is?" Zhao Qingshan asked curiously.

"Yes," Zeng Lan nodded without hesitation.

"Oh really? It seems you think he’s a good person," Zhuo Shide said with a smile.

Zeng Lan looked at him, calmly saying, "If Senior Brother Gu were the good person you speak of, would you be speaking to us so politely? Would you be sitting in there speaking to me quietly?"

Zeng Lan lowered her head, attending to her work, and continued, "In the eyes of all you seniors, Senior Brother Gu is an unforgivable villain, but have you seniors ever considered that, in our eyes, you are also great villains we must constantly be on guard against?"

Upon hearing this, everyone was somewhat surprised.

*So young, yet seeing so clearly.*

"Little fairy, what else do I need to do?" Duan Yulin cautiously asked.

Zeng Lan shook her head, "That’s up to Senior Brother Gu, but the items have been handed over to him, so there should be news soon."

"Stop dreaming; they said this is the Demon Sect. It won’t be so easy to get out. They won’t let you leave until they’ve squeezed you dry of all your value. We should at least make them feel difficult.

Of course, we cooperate, but we must protect the real value."

"At least while the value remains, when there’s no value left, I’m afraid we’ll die quickly," Zhuo Shide explained.

Hearing this, Duan Yulin’s face turned pale, and she became anxious, "Little fairy, I wish to see your leader."

Zeng Lan was somewhat troubled but finally said, "I can only convey the senior’s wishes to Senior Brother Yang."

"No need," a voice suddenly sounded from outside.

Shu Ci descended from above.

"Senior Sister Shu," Zeng Lan immediately saluted.

"Junior Sister, continue your work; this senior’s procedures have been completed," Shu Ci said with a smile.

Then she looked at Duan Yulin and took out a document, "Here, sign your name, and tomorrow, as long as the leader says the items you handed over are fine, you can leave."

Upon hearing this, everyone found it hard to believe.

Even Duan Yulin wondered if it was too simple?

The efficiency was so high.

*There must be some trick.*
