Furthermore, with Yunhua's intervention, the achievements of those who stayed in Shicun might not be inferior to those of Shi Zhongtian's original path.
Yunhua would never be the kind of person who would deliberately and carefully maintain the so-called "plot".
Upon hearing Xiao Ta's words, Shi Zhongtian's eyes flashed with astonishing light. This was the first time in so many years that he had heard such news.
“They…” Shi Zhongtian was about to say something when Xiao Ta interrupted him.
"Once we see them, let them explain to you," Xiao Ta said, then led Shi Zhongtian straight out of the Dark Forest.
There was nothing in this forbidden area that attracted him, and he was unwilling to linger any longer.
As for explaining it to Shi Zhongtian, that would be too troublesome.
Furthermore, even if I explained, Shi Zhongtian wouldn't believe me completely, so it's better to just take him away directly.
Rushing in and rushing out recklessly, Shi Zhongtian, bound by the small tower and forced to follow along, couldn't help but change color.
Some ideas began to form in my mind.
How did the grandson of a man who could roam freely in the dark forest come to know him?
Could it be that his grandson has recognized this tower as his master? Unfortunately, he was speechless at that moment.
After bursting out of the dark forest, Shi Zhongtian was somewhat dazed.
The sun's rays shone upon him once more, fresh air filled every inch of space, the sun shone brightly, and the mountains and rivers were beautiful.
Wanling's voice rang in his ears, causing him, who was accustomed to the dark forest environment, to take a deep breath.
It felt like a lifetime had passed. But a moment later, Shi Zhongtian realized something was wrong.
The path Xiaota was taking didn't seem to lead to the Martial King's Mansion. Shi Zhongtian's heart skipped a beat—had he been kidnapped?
Looking at the increasingly desolate scenery around him, Shi Zhongtian had already confirmed one fact.
This is not the car going to Prince Wu's residence!
Xiao Ta seemed to see through Shi Zhongtian's thoughts and said to him, "You don't want to go back to the Martial King's Mansion. Even if you do go back, it won't be home, and you won't consider it home anymore."
Instead, they went to behead him.
At this moment, Shi Zhongtian did not understand what the small tower meant.
The Wu King's Mansion is my home. If I don't return to the Wu King's Mansion and don't consider it my home, then...
Where do I live? Do you mean I live at your house?
A short time later, Xiaota brought Shi Zhongtian back to Shi Village.
Then he brought him to Shi Ziling and the others, while he went to Yunhua to claim credit.
Although it's just a small matter, I, Xiaota, firmly believe in the principle of equivalent exchange; everything must be balanced!
Chapter 915 True Dragon Treasure Technique
Yunhua was talking to the little one about something.
"Have you decided which precious technique you want?" Yunhua asked while sipping his tea.
The little one looked completely conflicted.
His reward for being the number one in the world in both the Cave Heaven and Spirit Transformation realms was the ability to choose any two of the Ten Fierce Treasure Techniques.
Although Yunhua kept the reward of the Blood Removal Realm's precious technique, it was because the little one was not suited to be distracted at the time.
That's why Yunhua didn't give him a reward.
However, the situation is naturally different for the little one who already has inscriptions compared to back then.
Some people specialize in one thing, cultivate their skills in a particular field, and achieve extraordinary success.
But some people are destined to follow a path of broad learning.
For example, Little One is naturally not limited by a certain magic technique or a certain path.
Once he reaches a certain level, the more he comes into contact with others, the better it will be for him.
Everything he encounters on his path of cultivation will become part of his foundation, shining brightly at some point in the future.
He can't fully comprehend the Ten Fierce Treasures Techniques yet, but even just grasping some of the basics will benefit him greatly.
Furthermore, exposure to one of the Ten Fierce Techniques can lead to a broader understanding and promote the application of other techniques.
The reason why the Ten Fierce Treasure Techniques are so famous is certainly due to the prestige of their owners, the Ten Fierce Ones, but the ten treasure techniques themselves are also truly extraordinary.
Each of the Ten Fierce Treasure Techniques represents a certain aspect of a cultivator's abilities. If one can perfect one of the Ten Fierce Treasure Techniques, it means that a certain aspect of the cultivator has reached perfection.
For example, the vitality of the phoenix, the offensive power of grass, the strength of ants, and the extreme speed of the Kunpeng...
Even if one doesn't collect all ten of these precious techniques, practicing just a few more will allow one to have no weaknesses and achieve all-round development.
Of course, this doesn't mean that the Celestial Phoenix is useless except for its vitality.
This vitality is a unique and exceptionally prominent feature of it compared to the other ten fierce treasure techniques.
Successfully mastering any one of the Ten Fierce Treasure Techniques will result in an all-round improvement for a cultivator.
There are races that can rival the Ten Fiends, such as the Golden Crow race, whose bloodline is just as powerful as that of the Ten Fiends.
However, there is a reason why they are not among the Ten Fiends. Compared with the Ten Fiends, this group is somewhat extreme and does not have universality.
The ten fierce creatures are all subtly compatible with each other to some extent.
Little Dot now possesses the Thunder Emperor Treasure Technique, the Grass Character Sword Art, the Kunpeng Treasure Technique, and the True Phoenix Treasure Technique.
It has reached perfection in terms of majesty, offensive power, speed, and recovery.
Of course, this perfection is relative.
Furthermore, in other aspects, Little One has also reached a limit.
Without an exceptionally strong physical body, how can one withstand the world's extreme speed?
Without an immortal spirit, how can one display supreme majesty?
Without surging magical power, how can one unleash the sharpest attacks?
Every aspect of a monk's life is interconnected and influences each other.
This explains why learning several of the Ten Fierce Treasure Techniques can eliminate any weaknesses in oneself.
"It's so hard to choose, I want them all." The little one shook his head.
"Brother Yun, why don't you just blacklist my reward? That way I won't have to make a choice."
Yunhua's face darkened, and she flicked the little one's forehead.
"What do you mean I stole your reward? I was just being farsighted."
“Since you can’t choose, I’ll help you choose.” Yunhua said, pressing a finger on the little boy’s forehead.
Countless symbols of the Great Dao swept through the little one's sea of consciousness, and finally a true dragon soaring through the nine heavens landed in the little one's sea of consciousness.
"Study hard and practice hard. You can be bad at other things, but you can't be bad at the True Dragon Treasure Technique and the Kunpeng Treasure Technique," Yun Hua said earnestly.
"Why, Brother Yun?" the little one asked curiously.
"The True Dragon Treasure Technique can help you survive better. The dragon can change size and appear and disappear, soaring in the sky or hiding in the abyss."
Yunhua said slowly, "The Kunpeng Treasure Technique will allow you to run faster than others."
The little one scratched his head, "Why are all the stories about surviving or running away?"
"You are still young and don't understand."
"Alright, your uncle has found your grandfather. Go out and see him."
Yunhua started to shoo people away, saying, "Now your family can be considered completely reunited."
Little Dot's eyes lit up when he heard Yunhua's words.
"Grandpa's back alive? Yay!"
The little one jumped up, thanked the little tower profusely, greeted Yunhua, and then ran outside in a flurry.
However, just as he was about to leave, he paused, turned around, and made a face at Yunhua.
"We're only truly reunited with Brother Yun around. Brother Yun can't just suddenly disappear one day!"
Then Little Dot quickly ran out and rushed towards Shi Zhongtian and Shi Ziling, who were talking.
Shi Zhongtian and Shi Ziling have already recognized each other and said a lot. Now they can't control their emotions.
The sudden return of a father who had been missing for many years was indeed a great surprise.
"This child." Yunhua shook her head with a smile and transmitted her voice to the little one.
"Come to my place later, I have some things that can help you cultivate the True Dragon Treasure Technique."
"I know!" the little one replied loudly.
The little tower beside him asked curiously, "An item that can help cultivate the True Dragon Treasure Technique?"
This is a rare item; it must be something closely related to the true dragon itself.
Yunhua smiled, and a drop of bright red blood quietly appeared on her fingertip.
No, this is not a drop of blood at all; it is practically a miniature dragon, so lifelike, dancing around Yunhua's fingertips.
"Pure true dragon blood?" Little Tower was somewhat surprised.
Furthermore, the level of this drop of true blood... The little tower trembled, feeling that Yunhua was shrouded in mystery.
It's as if he can produce anything, which is really inconsistent with his current cultivation level.
"I never expected you to have something like this."
Yunhua replied with a smile, "I have a friend who is a real dragon."
Yunhua's intention in having Xiaobudian cultivate the True Dragon Treasure Technique was certainly not what he and Xiaobudian had said—that it would help Xiaobudian survive.
Rather, it was so that he wouldn't be so reckless when he encountered a strong enemy in the future.
Given his current state, Little One's future cultivation prospects are undoubtedly bright, and few enemies will force him to use the True Dragon Treasure Technique to survive.
But for humans, the greatest enemy is often themselves, especially for someone like Little Dot who loves to challenge and even surpass limits.
A single True Dragon Treasure Technique would give the little one even more room to cause trouble.
Chapter 916 Keeping the Appointment
After a long time, Shi Ziling and the others came to thank Yunhua again for reuniting them with their father.
They had just finished their conversation when they burst into tears again.
They shared their experiences over the years, and also told Shi Zhongtian why they were in Shi Village, as well as about Xiao Budian and Qin Hao.
Yunhua felt somewhat frustrated by their gratitude, even though it was well-intentioned and sincere.
However, all the thanking and expressing of gratitude really affected Yunhua's tea drinking—no, it affected Yunhua's understanding of the Dao and the mortal world.
Not disturbing them is perhaps the best way to express our gratitude. Unfortunately, none of them possess Yunhua's level of understanding.
The Shi Ziling couple have been in Shicun for two months and have become familiar with everyone.
But unlike others, they haven't been together for several years.
As for Qin Hao, he's having a great time playing with the kids in Shicun now, and he's integrated into the village even better than his parents.
Every day, he would run around wildly with a group of children, their laughter echoing throughout Shicun and the surrounding area.
She has become quite close to Shi Hao, her older brother, and occasionally she is willing to call him "brother."
The knot in my heart from back then, while not completely gone, is no longer on my mind. That's the good thing about kids.
Therefore, teaching children really has to start from a young age, setting an example for them and guiding them from childhood.
If children are not properly guided in their childhood, their development will be too ingrained by the time they grow up.
If they have a good temperament, that's fine, but if they have a very bad character, then it will be too late to regret it.
We can only hope that the prodigal son will return home and that gold will never be more precious.
If Qin Hao hadn't been taken along, only Shi Ziling and his wife would have left.
