Chapter 150: Chapter 150: The Mysterious Heaven Record
The next step was to head to Spirit City for the finals, with everyone traveling by carriage.
Both Heaven Dou Academy's first and second teams traveled together. To everyone's surprise, the second team had an unusually large number of carriages. Apart from Yang Podi and his seven teammates, there were also Teacher Anya and Teacher Li Xiang. These two had always accompanied the team, with Li Xiang even serving as the deputy team leader.
In addition to these ten, Yang Podi's grandfather, Yang Wudi; his maternal grandfather, Niu Gao; the Poison Douluo, Dugu Bo; and his uncle, Niu Mang, all joined the journey. Essentially, the elites of both families were heading to Spirit City.
As for the clan residences, arrangements were made. Yang Podi's mother, Niu Jinfeng, returned to the Defense Clan under the pretext of visiting her maternal family, while his second granduncle, Yang Wushuang, secretly returned to the Breaking Clan to guard the family.
Meanwhile, Yang Podi's father, Yang Zhentian, covertly accompanied the team to provide protection. After all, this journey involved the younger elites of both families, and any mishap would be a significant loss.
Furthermore, a special figure joined the entourage: Shi Nian, the former leader of the Canghui Academy team. After vanishing during the preliminary rounds of the tournament, Shi Nian later reappeared, resigning from his position at Canghui Academy and voluntarily joining the Breaking Clan as an external elder. This development caused quite a stir in the spirit master world.
Rumors had it that Shi Nian had ambushed the Breaking Clan's young elites, but after failing and being captured, he was forced to join the clan.
Such situations weren't uncommon for powerful clans. Like the Upper Three Sects, these families often absorbed high-level spirit masters into their external ranks. For example, the Clear Sky Sect once had three to four thousand external disciples, while the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan had even more. Typically, internal disciples were limited to those with Glazed Tile Pagoda spirits and a few direct heirs.
Shi Nian's situation reflected this trend. High-level spirit masters were too valuable to kill, yet too dangerous to release, making them ideal candidates for recruitment.
Thus, the group set off in a grand procession toward Spirit City.
Inside one of the carriages were only Shi Nian, Yang Podi, and Yang Wudi.
Yang Podi addressed Shi Nian: "Elder Shi Nian, based on Tang San's habits and the distance between our carriages, can you pull both Tang San and me into a dream simultaneously, with me controlling the dream?"
Shi Nian hesitated briefly before replying, "Young clan leader, your spiritual power is too overwhelming. It might be challenging."
Yang Podi shook his head. "During this process, I will lower my mental defenses and not resist your spirit. But you must be especially cautious. Although Tang San is only at the Spirit Ancestor level, his spiritual power is at least at the high Spirit King level, possibly even Spirit Emperor. Do not take any harmful actions in the dream, or he will notice."
After some consideration, Shi Nian nodded seriously. "I can manage it. After obtaining the Ten-Thousand-Year Illusionary Spirit Flower, my spiritual power has greatly increased, now comparable to that of a Spirit Douluo."
Yang Wudi, however, seemed concerned. "Podi, is this truly necessary? If word gets out, it could be troublesome."
Yang Podi responded firmly, "Tang San possesses something crucial for our Breaking Clan's rise. We must take this risk."
"Moreover, Tang San has been spending every night with his teammates, while Flender and Liu Erlong are stationed farther away. This is our only chance. Once we reach Spirit City, acting will be far more difficult."
"Grandfather, keep watch for approaching enemies during this operation and notify Elder Shi Nian if needed."
Perhaps due to Titan's deep-seated hatred for Spirit Hall, Titan refrained from accompanying the group. Instead, Bai He monitored the periphery, ready to alert the group to danger. Based on Yang Podi's assessment, Tang Hao was likely also shadowing the team.
Over the following days, Tang San found himself repeatedly drawn into strange dreams during his meditative states. These dreams felt both vivid and surreal.
In the dreams, Tang San seemed to return to his past life, specifically his time training and secretly learning the Tang Sect's inner techniques. He was meticulous and diligent in his studies.
For several consecutive nights, Tang San experienced the same dream. Upon waking, he felt no physical anomalies. The dream's content, however, pertained to the deepest secrets of his past life—secrets he hadn't shared even with Xiao Wu.
During this time, Yang Podi, leveraging his knowledge from his previous life's exposure to the Douluo Dalu storyline, disguised himself as an ordinary observer within Tang San's dream, silently watching and recording everything Tang San saw and learned. He avoided disrupting Tang San, subtly guiding him instead.
After seven days, Tang San returned to normal, no longer experiencing the dreams. It was as though nothing had happened.
Yang Podi, however, had meticulously compiled everything he had observed, including all of Tang San's secrets.
Central to these findings was the Mysterious Heaven Record. This contained six Tang Sect techniques: the inner skill Mysterious Heaven Skill, the hand-strengthening Mysterious Jade Hands, the eye-enhancing Purple Demon Eyes, the grappling technique Controlling Crane Capturing Dragon, the agility technique Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track, and the comprehensive guide to using hidden weapons, Hidden Weapons Hundred Separation.
He also uncovered Tang San's Clear Sky Clan inheritance: the Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer Technique.
As Yang Podi finished documenting everything, he couldn't help but marvel, "These techniques are indeed the pinnacle of martial arts and the foundation of Tang San's path to godhood—truly profound."
Shi Nian and Yang Wudi, who were nearby, stared in awe at the compiled materials. Yang Wudi finally understood why his grandson had insisted on recruiting Shi Nian. The value of these techniques was immeasurable.
Yang Podi handed the compiled Mysterious Heaven Record to his grandfather. "Grandfather, keep this record strictly confidential for now. You may practice the Mysterious Heaven Skill, but the other techniques are too conspicuous. We'll decide how to handle them later."
He then addressed Shi Nian. "Elder Shi Nian, today's events are of immense importance. These techniques are the Clear Sky Clan's most guarded secrets. If word gets out, the Clear Sky Clan will relentlessly hunt you down. I trust you won't make a mistake."
Shi Nian immediately swore, "Young clan leader, rest assured. I swear on my spirit that today's events will remain a secret. If I break this vow, may my spirit shatter, and may I meet a miserable end."
Shi Nian wasn't foolish. He knew that any betrayal would result in immediate execution.
Yang Podi nodded in satisfaction. "Elder Shi Nian, you are now an external elder of the Breaking Clan. The clan will nurture you, and your future will be bright. However, for now, we must remain low-key. You will also share in the treasures obtained today."
Shi Nian quickly pledged, "Young clan leader, I will dedicate myself to the Breaking Clan and treat it as my family."
Both Yang Podi and Yang Wudi nodded approvingly. Shi Nian was proving himself capable and astute.
Yang Wudi, however, couldn't help but ask, "Podi, as a long-time external elder of the Clear Sky Clan, I never knew they had such techniques. When can we begin training the core disciples of the clan?"
Yang Podi replied calmly, "The Clear Sky Clan's long history and exceptional talents like Tang Chen naturally hide many secrets."
"As for these techniques, our clan won't act prematurely. Once others have started practicing them, we'll introduce them gradually. Rushing will only make us a target."
Yang Wudi hesitated. "But if everyone learns these techniques, won't we lose our advantage?"
Yang Podi reassured him, "The Mysterious Heaven Skill is the foundation of all these techniques. Without it, others can only grasp the basics. They won't reach the highest levels. As long as we keep the Mysterious Heaven Skill to ourselves, we'll maintain our edge. Let's deliberate further after the tournament."
Yang Wudi finally felt reassured.
Turning to Shi Nian, Yang Podi asked, "Elder Shi Nian, is there any chance Tang San noticed today's events?"
Shi Nian answered solemnly, "Young clan leader, rest assured. Although I drew Tang San into a dream, I caused him no harm and made no aggressive moves. Even if Tang San suspects something, he'll only think he had a vivid dream."
Satisfied, Yang Podi began contemplating how to make these techniques openly usable without attracting unwanted attention.
After twenty days of travel, the group finally reached Spirit City. To Yang Podi's surprise, there were no ambushes from Spirit Hall. Perhaps the presence of Yang Wudi and Niu Gao, two Titled Douluo, had deterred them.
As in the original story, Yu Xiaogang left the group early, heading to Spirit City alone.
Within the Spirit Hall's Pope Hall, Yu Xiaogang met Bibi Dong, his former lover. The gap between them was now insurmountable—whether in status, strength, or appearance.
Bibi Dong, a Titled Douluo and the Pope, retained her youthful looks, while Yu Xiaogang, now a mere Spirit Grandmaster, bore the marks of years of despair.
Despite lingering feelings, Bibi Dong was shocked when Yu Xiaogang, after traveling all this way, sought the method for cultivating twin spirits.
Even if Yu Xiaogang promised that Tang San would never oppose Spirit Hall, his words carried no weight. The longstanding feud between their clans and Tang San's personal vendetta were irreconcilable.
The meeting ended in disaster, with Bibi Dong furiously ejecting Yu Xiaogang from the hall.
The finals would begin the next day, marking Yang Podi's official debut.
