eaving the residence of Duke Cailing, Jiang Wang discovered that his anxiety, which had been caused by the situation with Chong Xuan's success, suddenly subsided.Let me know if you have any other text...Dong A's small courtyard.

The third Dao cycle was about to be established, but Jiang Wang wasn't worried about whether he could achieve the first small Zhou Tian circulation. That was a matter of course; he now had such confidence.

But he still had some doubts about the instant spells that were imprinted after entering the Zhoutian realm.

This is the first instant spell inscribed by a cultivator, and the impact of instant spells on combat is almost decisive.

Even the most refined and rapid martial art requires a few breaths to fully execute. In the heat of battle, a single breath can be enough to spell death.

The value of the sword that Jiang Wang possessed lay in the fact that it was engraved with a golden light arrow technique. While the golden light arrow itself wasn't particularly powerful, the sword formation patterns allowed it to achieve near-instantaneous effect, making it useful in battle.

However, the long cooling time is also a drawback that cannot be ignored.

After completing the cycle of Xia Zhoutian, Tongtian Palace would then be able to support him in inscribing a teleportation Dao technique.

Among the low-level Dao arts he had learned at the Dao Institute, there was indeed none that was sufficiently satisfactory. It lacked Dao arts with practical applications like the Wave-Breaking Three Layers of the Wangjiang City Dao Institute.

Dong'a would be incapable of devoting his energy to the research and innovation of low-level Dao arts. Such endeavors are often the result of a Daoist academy's accumulated efforts over time. However, Fenglin City Dao Academy has only recently risen to prominence, and its foundation is not deep enough.

"Which path, the way of Fire or the way of Wood, do you lean towards" asked Dong A.

As a teacher, he naturally knew about Jiang Wang's dual major aspirations.

Wood-based arts often have a stronger binding force, while fire-based arts are more ferocious in their attacks.

Jiang Wang had an idea early on: "The first instant-cast spell, I hope it's firewalking. A more violent attack would better integrate into my current combat system."

Dong Ada nodded: "Just recently, the National Daoist Academy cracked a top-grade, Grade C Dao technique."

He extended a finger, and a spark leaped up.

Then the Martian spirit, lively and playful, twitched slightly, transforming into a flower of flame that bloomed on his fingertip.

Although Dong A is most skilled in wood-based Dao techniques, even a low-level fire-based Dao technique poses no difficulty for him.

Jiang Wang could sense the intense heat of this flame flower, even though it looked so tranquil and gentle.

>

"Fireflower," Dong Aji said. "Since Zuo Guanglie created the 'Fireflower Burning City' technique, people from all countries have been trying to crack it, and the National Institute of Daoism only recently had a breakthrough. This fireflower is derived from Fireflower Burning City. It is the finest among techniques of grade C."

Jiang Wang was extremely satisfied, couldn't be more satisfied. Setting aside the existence of prodigious talent, from a certain perspective, Grade C Taoism was the upper limit for an eighth-rank Zhoutian realm cultivator.

>

This spell is already a high-grade secondary technique, especially since it's a flame blossom. It is the foundation of the Daoist technique Flame Blossom incinerating cities.

"Master Dong, that's about the art." Jiang Wang said immediately.

Dong A took out a small booklet and threw it to Jiang Wang: "This is the imprint, well, and some of my thoughts on this Taoist art. Take it back and read it yourself. Deduction your remaining Dao Xun."

It is only natural to deduct merit points for this. The Taoist Academy provides free instruction on some common Taoist techniques. However, techniques like the Fireworks technique are naturally not included in the standard curriculum. Many people have tried their best to exchange for it, but it's simply not on the merit points list.

The technique was just recently deciphered by the National Dao Institute and is currently only circulating among powerful individuals like Dong A. To be willing to teach this technique to Jiang Wang shows how much they value him.

After the Three Mountains City incident, Jiang Wang's reputation was already waning. Now, he had gotten the better end of the deal.

Although Dong A was a straightforward person and often seemed cold, his love for his disciples was genuine.

Jiang Wang respectfully took the booklet and placed it in his bosom.

Having accomplished the purpose of this trip, he should now bid farewell and depart.

But as if by some supernatural force, he sat down cross-legged again: “Master Dong…”

Just get to the point.

"Do you know... about the human race raiding the aquatic race and extracting their Dao meridians" Jiang Wang carefully watched Dong'a's expression.

With his caution, he wouldn't normally ask such a question. But over this period of time, Dong A had already built trust in his heart.

Let me know if you'd like me to translate any other text!

Then what Dong Aimei didn't raise her head.

"Don't you find this appalling"

"Who is to be hated" Dong'a looked at him, "Aquatic races also have things where they devour human races. Do you know that Want me to show you the Criminal Affairs Division's case files"

Under Dong A's intense stare, Jiang Wang felt a surge of anxiety and stammered.

"Sigh," Noting Jiang Wang's unease, Dong A softened her gaze. "We all know that these are just a few cases. Just like the Human race itself has man-eating demons, does that mean the entire Human race feeds on their own kin"

His tone also softened: "But when anything involves two races, things aren't so simple. This kind of thing is hard to say. No matter how close humans and merfolk are like family, they're not truly one."

Jiang Wang gritted his teeth and said, "The problem is that this isn't just a few isolated cases anymore. I found out that people from the Criminal Investigation Division..."

“Presumptuous!” Dong A roared. “Are you the one who can say such a thing”

He looked serious: "Jiang Wang, remember this. Your most important task now is to cultivate diligently and perfectly build your Small Zhou Tian. Then take the county exam, then the national exam. I don't care where you heard about this, these things are not something a disciple of the Cheng Dao Institute should be worried about!"

"Yes." Jiang Wang lowered his head and admitted his mistake: "The disciple understands."

The cave with white bones paved still as before. A long time had passed since the agreed upon time, yet the skull on the White Bone Throne made no appearance.

"How much longer do we have to wait" Miaoyu was still in her red dress, but her expression was a bit impatient.

"Scram." The Bone Messenger said, "The Grand Elder must have been held back by something. He won't be appearing today."

"桀桀桀桀…" Today, a thin old man appeared in the cave. His status was obviously not lower than that of the messenger and the saintess. He faced the white bone throne and clasped his hands together: “He brought the phantom of the Ghost Gate. What could he possibly do to hinder him”

"Didn't the Grand Elder make a big move in Yun Guo" The Bone Messenger's voice was laced with amusement. "What is there in the Cloud Nation, you say, Second Elder"

A holy maiden, a messenger, three high priests, and twelve bone-faced disciples. They represent the current high-ranking power of the White Bone Dao.

In terms of status, the Saintess is the most superior. However, in terms of strength, the current leader of Bai Gu Dao is the Great Elder.

The Third Elder sacrificed himself to create the illusory image of Ghost Gate. Now, if anyone in the sect could rival the First Elder, it would be the Second Elder.

"桀桀桀桀…" Elder Er chuckled, "Could it be that Ye Lingxiao has emerged from seclusion I haven't seen him make a move in years, I wonder if his bones are rusty now."

"Then perhaps the Second Elder should take a look." Miaoyu smiled and retorted, then flicked her long sleeve: "Since the Grand Elder can't come, I shall leave first."

"What's the rush, Saintess" Elder Two turned his head, a smile playing on his lips. In his eyes, there was only white."

Miaoyu smiled, her face as bright as a flower: "I need to hurry back and investigate the traitor within."

"Oh" Elder Two waved his hand, cackling, "Go go."

The White Bone Envoy hurried a few steps to catch up with Miaoyu, and said in an intimate tone: "Are you still asking about Ye Lingxiao's bones being rusty Ye Lingxiao is much younger than him! This old geezer talks as if they have fought before! Who doesn't know that when Ye Lingxiao traveled the world, his master and senior brothers were all killed, and he only escaped by pretending to be dead"

He changed the subject: “But you’re the same, let him boast if he wants to. An old bone like him, what's there to care about”

Miaoyu glanced at him: "Why are you like those gossipy old women, always chattering And please don't get so close to me, we're not familiar."

"Oh my, Miaoyuyu. You've changed so much. You weren't like this to me before. Having a new love makes you forget old ones…" The White Bone Messenger leaned closer, lowering her voice: "Did you, perhaps, find Daozi"

Miao Yu suddenly turned her head!

The Skeleton Messenger jumped far away and took a defensive stance.

>

But see, Miaoyu smiled sweetly and beautifully.

“I'd love to be nicer to you, in any way I can. But can you handle it”

Her eyes were captivating, and her voice was soft as honey.

"Ah!" The White Bone Messenger clapped his hands together. "Now this tastes right!"

Hide your little lover well, don't let anyone find out...

He smiled and finished speaking, then casually leaned back and disappeared into the cave.
