Chapter 203 - Hidden Strength

“Your hunch is right. Or rather, you are relatively special. Before cultivating essence energy, you actually forcefully cultivated this secret technique that requires essence energy.”

After coughing twice, Ling Shuying indeed said the words “essence energy”.

“Essence energy?”

Zhou Hao was prepared to hide something and immediately pretended not to know.

“Yes, essence energy.”

“The realm above the ninth-grade supernatural level is called the Heaven Realm!”

“Martial artists who have reached this level are known as Heaven Realm experts. There are twelve levels to this realm and it is a very long cultivation process.”

“After entering the Heaven Realm, martial artists mainly cultivate essence energy instead of blood essence.”

As Ling Shuying spoke, she stretched out her snow-white hand. After the aura in her body moved, strands of ice-blue essence energy condensed into a beautiful and vivid blue demon concubine in her palm.

Zhou Hao also knew that not only was this blue concubine beautiful, but she was also very dangerous.

He was already very clear about the strength of essence energy.

“You’re a Heaven Realm expert?” Zhou Hao asked deliberately.

In his senses, Ling Shuying was not a Heaven Realm expert. She probably had not cultivated essence energy for long.

“Of course not.”

“If I were a Heaven Realm expert, why would I still be here?”

Ling Shuying complained and then took out a secret manual from his storage device and handed it to Zhou Hao.

“There’s no need to be surprised. All the martial artists in Huaxia will receive this gift after they cultivate to the peak of the supernatural level.”

“This is a Heaven Realm cultivation technique. Take a look and check yourself.”

After Ling Shuying finished speaking, she could not help but be puzzled. Zhou Hao’s reaction was almost unexpected.

Shouldn’t Zhou Hao be overjoyed that he had obtained a Heaven Realm cultivation technique so easily?

Or could it be that Zhou Hao’s mysterious master had already taught him a Heaven Realm cultivation technique?

That shouldn’t be the case. Judging from the time and the traces at the scene, Zhou Hao and his mysterious master had not successfully interacted at all.

Although Heaven Realm experts could temporarily leave the spatial rift, they could not leave for too long.

Zhou Hao looked at the items and realized that Ling Shuying had handed him a secret manual that recorded three cultivation techniques.

The first cultivation technique was called the Yuan Opening Art. According to the description in the secret manual, this was the most widely circulated heaven-level cultivation technique.

Because this cultivation technique did not have any special characteristics, most martial artists had a certain compatibility with this cultivation technique.

Zhou Hao immediately followed the instructions in the secret manual and did a self-analysis.

Immediately, he realized that this Yuan Opening Art was really trashy. It was simply far inferior to his Grand Yan Record.

The previous owner of the Grand Yan Record, Si Nanxun, could not stop complaining about the Grand Yan Record. If he was told to cultivate with the Yuan Opening Art, he might start cursing.

If one had to measure it in detail, the cultivation effect of the Yuan Opening Art was at most 20% of the Grand Yan Record. It was no wonder this item was so widely circulated.

The Heaven Realm experts that cultivated this cultivation technique might even be the weakest existence among all the Heaven Realm experts.

It was simply useless!

Soon, Zhou Hao’s attention arrived at the second cultivation technique.

The name of this cultivation technique was very flashy. It was called the Divine Wind Sword Art, and one could tell at a glance that it was a cultivation technique that mainly cultivated sword techniques.

After testing it himself, Zhou Hao was disappointed again.

The Divine Wind Sword Art was indeed better than the Yuan Opening Art, but it was not much better.

“Hmm? Are the Yuan Opening Art and the Divine Wind Sword Art not suitable?”

“What’s your compatibility with the Yuan Opening Art and the Divine Wind Sword Art?” Ling Shuying asked curiously.

Although the Green Cloud Division had prepared three cultivation techniques for the peak supernatural experts of Huaxia, only the first two were more generalized.

Most of the peak-level supernatural experts were compatible with the first two.

However, judging from Zhou Hao’s reaction, he seemed to be very dissatisfied with the first two techniques.

“My compatibility with the Yuan Opening Art and the Divine Wind Sword Art is pretty good, but I want to take a look at this Green Wood Spring Autumn Art.”

From the name alone, Zhou Hao could tell that the final Green Wood Spring Autumn Art was definitely more advanced than the previous two cultivation techniques.

Of course, his compatibility with the Grand Yan Record had directly reached the peak. No matter how heaven-defying the Green Wood Spring Autumn Art was, he still wouldn’t change his cultivation technique.

However, he had just come into contact with the Heaven Realm. It was always good for him to understand more..
