Chapter 1767: Sacred Relic Hall

“This is a waste...” Mu Xu frowned, surprised that the man, ignoring their advice, had immediately begun sacrificing treasures to his ancestors to summon a sacred wonder.

The sacrificial ritual required an enormous amount of treasures. Even as nine-star master teachers, they wouldn't dare to be so wasteful. Yet, this guy, after arriving for less than five minutes and without understanding anything, had just started...

How could he be so unreliable?

"He doesn't know the immensity of heaven and earth. After one failure, he'll realize that the sequence of these cultivation techniques requires careful study, not arrogance!" someone said.

"Indeed, he'll learn the hard way!" another chimed in.

The silhouette on the stone began to dance as they spoke. Zhang Xuan followed closely, demonstrating the sequence he had organized from the Library of Heaven's Path. Every move and every stance matched perfectly.

"This..." Everyone was stunned. They had studied for eight or nine hours without significant progress, yet this guy had only been here for five or six minutes and already matched it... Their eyes widened in disbelief, unsure of what was happening.

"No, his moves no longer match the silhouette!" Mu Xu suddenly exclaimed after watching for a moment. Everyone hurriedly looked, and indeed, they saw that the young man's moves already had some discrepancies with the silhouette in the sacred wonder. The moves and the flow of true qi were different.

"I told you it couldn't be completed in one go..." Seeing the discrepancy, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Although they desperately wanted to leave and enter the branch hall, if this guy truly found the correct sequence in less than five minutes, where would they put their faces? They might as well just give up! Because of this, they felt relieved when they saw the error.

However, their relief was short-lived. The young man stopped, frowned, and looked at the phantom in the stone with displeasure. "Your cultivation sequence is wrong!"

*Pfft!* The silhouette seemed to reel.

"..." Mu Xu and the others were speechless.

"Follow my lead; only then will it be perfect..." Zhang Xuan's voice continued. He resumed cultivating according to his sequence. The silhouette in the stone paused for a moment, then followed and learned. Mu Xu and the others were dumbfounded, their expressions as if they had seen a ghost.

They had searched here for eight or nine hours and couldn't find the correct sequence. This guy, upon arriving, not only found it but also instructed the silhouette, telling it that it was wrong... The one who left behind this sacred wonder was either Kong Shi himself or one of the Seventy-Two Sages... and he claimed that person made a mistake... Everyone felt their scalps tingle, completely unnerved.

"Now, that's more like it! Try it this way; don't you feel the moves are more powerful? And they integrate better with your internal energy?" Soon, the demonstration was complete. Zhang Xuan stopped, satisfied, and looked at the silhouette in the stone.

*Crack!* The silhouette did not reply. It simply flickered gently and vanished. At the same moment, the stone before them trembled, and a massive stone teleportation gate appeared. Through the stone gate, a hall could be seen, appearing faintly. It seemed to lead directly to the Sacred Relic Hall that Master Mu had mentioned earlier.

"Let's go together!" Seeing the passage appear, Zhang Xuan called out and walked through first.

"This..." Mu Xu and the others exchanged glances, then had no choice but to follow closely. Even at this moment, they felt as if they were dreaming.

Entering the stone gate, they instantly arrived in another world. As expected, the Sacred Relic Hall was right before their eyes. Mu Xu could no longer hold back and approached Zhang Xuan. "Your sequence just now was different from what the sacred wonder displayed. Why were you able to open the portal...?"

Not only was he puzzled, but the others also found it incredible. Just now, the moves this guy practiced didn't perfectly match the silhouette's. Yet, why did the silhouette follow his sequence and even open the portal? Their sequences had also been different before... but it was *they* who had suffered the backlash!

"I adjusted the sequence and discovered that the cultivation technique left by the silhouette itself had flaws. So, I modified it to make it more logical and powerful! He was practicing it incorrectly, and knowing mine was right, he naturally had to learn from it..." Zhang Xuan nodded. What came out of his library was always the most correct cultivation technique. The martial art technique left by the silhouette in the stone itself was flawed. Since he helped correct it, it would naturally be overjoyed.

"Not only did he find the correct sequence left by the ancient master, but he also corrected the errors in his cultivation..." Mu Xu and the others felt their faces turn pale, utterly speechless. What kind of monstrous talent had they encountered?

They proceeded towards the branch hall and soon arrived at a plaza in front of it. There, they saw a considerable crowd gathered. These people, like Mu Xu, must have come from the Stone Forest World. However, without a Legacy Heaven Token, they couldn't enter the branch hall and could only wait outside.

On the walls of the branch hall, frescoes were carved, depicting countless cultivation techniques. The crowd was gathered beside them, meticulously observing, each person completely engrossed. Previously, they could only speculate on the sequence. Now, the correct sequence was carved directly onto the wall, as if they had been taking an exam and had just received the answers. They all studied diligently, afraid of missing the opportunity.

Zhang Xuan quickly scanned, collecting these frescoes into his library, then finally looked up. The branch hall before him was indeed the Sacred Relic Hall; its three large characters exuded an intense sense of pressure. The main gate of the hall was open, with only a seal remaining. Some people had already entered.

"Let's go inside and take a look!" With a wave of his hand, Little Amulet appeared before him, and Zhang Xuan flew towards the entrance. He arrived at the seal, touched it, and immediately slipped through.

*Swoosh! Swoosh!* No sooner had he entered the hall than, before he could even steady himself, he felt two sword lights shoot towards him, aiming straight for his heart. His expression darkened. His forward momentum stopped as Zhang Xuan swayed twice, dodging the sword lights.

He looked forward and saw two young men standing there, each holding a long sword, their eyes radiating intense killing intent. These two individuals wore master teacher robes and looked no different from master teachers, but their palpable killing intent gave off a feeling that they could drag anyone to hell at any moment.

"Otherworldly Demonic Tribe?" His pupils contracted. Unexpectedly, he had encountered members of the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe here! This meant they must have acquired the Legacy Heaven Token corresponding to this Sacred Relic Hall! Of the six Legacy Heaven Tokens, one was with the Master Teacher Pavilion headquarters, one with the Zhang Clan, one with the Luo Clan. The whereabouts of the remaining three were unknown. The Zhang Clan's token corresponded to the Great Accomplishment Hall, and the Luo Clan's should be for the Sleeping Hall; otherwise, Luo Qiqi would have had difficulty entering! Now that members of the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe had appeared here, it was likely related to the remaining three tokens.

*Swish!* The thought flashed through his mind, but the two otherworldly demons before him gave him no time to ponder further. Both simultaneously flicked their wrists, and sword lights shot out again. Sword qi crisscrossed, full of power. These two were actually both at the Great Perfection realm of the Undying Stage!

"Hmph!" Raising an eyebrow, Zhang Xuan flipped his wrist, and the Dragonbone Divine Spear appeared in his palm. His arm extended, and he thrust it towards one of them. At the same moment, the Golden Origin Cauldron and other treasures rained down on the other opponent.
