I Pick Up A Bunch Of Attributes

305 You Are Behind By More Than One Version

“My… my master…”

The moment Ming Youjun heard Feng Xia’s question, a look of struggle appeared on his face.

His sense of logic was telling him that he absolutely could not answer this question.

Otherwise, the person backing him would definitely be furious and that would lead to a fatal disaster!

But—

“I…”

“Why can’t I—”

“Help it…”

In all directions, the world seemed to have lost its color. There were only the cold lotus petals which cut across the sky, leaving only a small gap that could be seen but not reached.

His magical power that was surging like the sea fell into silence. His body seemed to have lost all its essence and he became a mortal who had never cultivated. He no longer had the will that was as firm as a rock, nor did he have the power to overturn mountains and seas.

Dead silence and despair kept spreading out in his chest.

“I…”

Ming Youjun instinctively wanted to refuse, but just as he opened his mouth, an intense pain spread throughout his body. It was as if countless thorns were all over his body, piercing his flesh and stopping him from saying words of rejection.

Nine Lotus Heavenly Heart Hell.

My heart is the heaven’s heart, and my will is the heaven’s will!

For people who had never seen a Dao heart divine power, unless the difference in cultivation was too great, the Nine Lotus Heavenly Heart Prison could be said to be a great killing weapon.

Sorry, you guys are behind by more than one version!

“My master is the Third Prince of Lingyun Kingdom, Lu Hua. However, I’ve heard my master mention that he’s actually a secret elder of the Xuantian Sect.”

At this moment, Ming Youjun could no longer endure the pain and knelt down again.

The pain caused by the Dao heart was greater than being cut into pieces!

Even if one had a powerful cultivation, if one’s Dao heart was not firm, it was almost impossible to withstand such pain.

“A secret elder of the Xuantian Sect?”

Feng Xia fell into deep thought.

In other words, the words “secret elder” actually meant… a spy!

“I understand now.” After a while, Feng Xia faintly acknowledged what he heard and quickly made a judgment in his heart. “So the Third Prince, Lu Hua, is from Starmoon Demon Sect.”

“What?” Ming Youjun was dumbfounded.

“Eh? Why!”

The woman at the side could not help but shout out, “He clearly said the Xuantian Sect just now!”

“If the Third Prince is really from the Xuantian Sect, he should have kept it a secret and not tell anyone about it. However, he even makes it a point to mention it to you…”

Feng Xia smiled calmly and said, “No matter where he comes from, it can’t be the Xuantian Sect.”

“Then why Starmoon Demon Sect?” The woman could not help but ask.

Her personality was obviously a little carefree. Under such circumstances, her curiosity actually suppressed her fear. She even had the mood to care about the truth of what Ming Youjun said.

My master is not from the Xuantian Sect?

Hearing Feng Xia’s analysis, Ming Youjun felt as if he had been struck by lightning.

He really wanted to refute Feng Xia on the spot, but the more he thought about it, the more he was horrified to discover that… what the other party said made a bloody great deal of sense!

Logically speaking, if one had an identity of being a secret elder, one would keep the secret until death. How could one reveal it easily?

“Why… why didn’t I realize it before this? Logically speaking, it’s impossible for me not to discover this problem…”

Lord Ming You was in a daze.

After all, he was the principal of Ming Kong Academy and an expert at the peak of the True Spirit Realm. It was such a simple and clear flaw, but he had only discovered it now!

Almost at this moment, a horrifying name jumped into his mind.

“It’s… it’s the Starmoon Demon Sect’s… Illusionary Ghost Technique!”

Only the Starmoon Demon Sect’s infamous secret technique had the power to make experts at the peak of the True Spirit Realm lose their ability to judge accurately!

“So the Starmoon Demon Sect has such a secret technique… Then I don’t have to frame the Starmoon Demon Sect anymore.”

Upon hearing this name, Feng Xia quietly retracted the second half of his sentence.

Yeah, you are right. You are right.jpg

“So what mission did the Third Prince give you?”

After a moment of silence, Feng Xia asked again.

This was what he was most concerned about.

“The mission that the Third Prince gave me…” Ming Youjun, scared out of his wits, answered honestly without thinking. “The Third Prince gave me many cultivation techniques he collected, all kinds from the Inception Realm to the Primal Core Realm. There were even Dharma Characteristic Realm and True Spirit Realm cultivation techniques. He asked me to keep these cultivation techniques at Ming Kong Academy, saying that he hoped to broaden the wisdom of the people and offer them to students at an extremely low price.”

“As expected of the Third Prince.”

Before Feng Xia could even ponder about it, he heard the woman praise, “There’s a reason why people call the Third Prince the conscience of the royal family.”

As she spoke, she suddenly frowned. “How can such a kind person be a spy from the Starmoon Demon Sect?”

“Conscience my ass.”

Feng Xia could not help but sneer. “Do you really think his cultivation techniques are all good stuff?”

...

If he was not wrong…

During this period of time, the flawed cultivation techniques that he had seen on many divine beings of Lingyun Kingdom were most likely cultivation techniques that had been taught in Ming Kong Academy!

As one of the top three academies in Lingyun Kingdom, the number of students who entered Ming Kong Academy every year to study and find the path of Dao and graduated from Ming Kong Academy was definitely a terrifying astronomical figure.

How many people had learned flawed cultivation techniques?

How many years had this been happening?

Even Ming Youjun himself would not know.

“It seems that even the Lingyun Emperor could not see the problem with these cultivation techniques.” Feng Xia thought to himself, “No, it’s also possible that he was too busy trying to break through to the Deity Realm, so he doesn’t have the time to pay attention…”

For top divine beings, it was not rare for them to cultivate in seclusion for a few decades or even a hundred years.

For those who were cultivating in seclusion, they might not even feel the passage of time. The outside world could have already changed and the sea turned into mulberry fields!

“This can explain why the Lingyun Emperor rarely appears…”

For a moment, Feng Xia felt the fog in his heart dissipate.

...

The truth about the dream realm was like an iceberg that was gradually revealing its tip.

“This… this is impossible, right?”

Before Ming Youjunu could speak, the green-haired woman spoke first. “It’s impossible that no one has discovered the problem after so many years!”

“Perhaps it’s not that no one has discovered it. It’s just that those who discovered it were gone.”

Feng Xia suddenly said, “Why do you think I suddenly ‘cheated’ back then and was even caught on the spot, causing me to be seriously injured and unconscious for many years?”

“What did you say—”

The moment she heard this, the woman immediately covered her face and paled.
