Martial Defiance Across Nine Thousand Realms
Chapter 36
"Successor?"
Ye Han looked at Li Futu with a mix of surprise and uncertainty.
Why did he have a bad feeling about this?
He had just joined the Human Path, and now he was suddenly deemed a successor?
The Human Path, one of the Six Paths of the Cycle Academy, should be teeming with geniuses. How could he, a new member, become a successor?
Speechless, Ye Han watched as Li Futu handed over an old book.
"What is this?"
Ye Han took the book.
On the worn cover were engraved five bold characters: "Imperial Extreme World-Shocking Record."
"The martial path of heaven and earth takes humans as its foundation!"
"Among the myriad paths under the heavens, the Human Path reigns supreme!"
"The Human Path, the foremost of the Six Paths, when cultivated to the extreme, can shatter mountains and rivers with a fist, and break the nine heavens with intent."
Li Futu looked at Ye Han with utmost seriousness and slowly spoke, "The ''Imperial Extreme World-Shocking Record'' is the strongest legacy of our Human Path, encompassing martial arts techniques, martial skills, secret arts, and more."
"The Human Path reigns supreme?"
Ye Han glanced at Li Futu, "People say that Swordsmanship is the foremost offensive path, and at its peak, a Sword Immortal is invincible under the heavens!"
A trace of undisguised disdain appeared in Li Futu''s eyes, "The Human Path, the imperial path, when cultivated to the extreme, can extinguish Sword Immortals with a single punch!"
Ye Han: "...!"
He thought to himself that he could probably boast even more than Li Futu.
"Alright, go back and cultivate. I look forward to seeing you glorify the Human Path. I''ll find a few things and come to you next month."
After speaking, Li Futu hurriedly left, giving Ye Han an encouraging look before departing.
"Glorify?"
Ye Han was speechless again, not understanding what Li Futu was talking about.
He had just joined the Human Path and was still clueless about many things, yet Li Futu was already calling him a successor and hoping he would glorify it?
If not for the fact that Li Futu had given him the "Imperial Extreme World-Shocking Record," Ye Han would have thought the man was a scammer.
After Li Futu left, Ye Han had no desire to stay and returned to Dragon Hidden Peak.
In Dragon Hidden Peak, Ye Han casually picked some fragrant fruits by the roadside. After eating them, he felt a sense of fullness inside and out.
These fruits even contained rich divine power, refreshing the spirit and greatly enhancing the effects of cultivation.
This was too convenient. The lush forests on Dragon Hidden Peak were abundant with special fruits and even medicinal herbs, so there was no worry about hunger, allowing Ye Han to cultivate without concerns for a long time.
It was only then that he truly appreciated how awesome it was to have a mountain of his own, where everything was under his control.
After taking care of his hunger, Ye Han entered the Dragon Hidden Hall and took out the "Imperial Extreme World-Shocking Record."
"Imperial Extreme World-Shocking Record, a Heaven Level martial arts technique!"
Upon opening the first page and seeing the words ''Heaven Level martial arts technique,'' Ye Han was startled, his eyes blazing with excitement. S~ea??h the N?velFire(.)net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
A Heaven Level martial arts technique!
The ranking of martial arts techniques was the same as that of martial skills, elixirs, and weapons, also categorized as Human Level, Mysterious Level, Earth Level, Heaven Level, and the supremely powerful Immortal Level.
Back in Flame City, even the strongest martial arts technique owned by the three major families was only a mid-grade Human Level, and ordinary martial artists practiced low-grade Human Level techniques that were readily available.
Upon arriving at the Cycle Academy, Ye Han''s dream was to gain access to ''Mysterious Level'' and even ''Earth Level'' martial arts techniques, martial skills, elixirs, weapons, and more.
Even the weakest Earth Level low-grade would satisfy Ye Han.
As for mid-grade and high-grade Earth Level, he dared not even think about them, as they were likely only accessible to Inner Disciples and True Disciples.
Who would have thought that today Li Futu would toss him a Heaven Level martial arts technique?
The "Imperial Extreme World-Shocking Record" was not just a single technique, but as Li Futu said, it included a variety of martial skills and secret arts.
What did this mean?
This completely resolved all his future concerns.
He didn''t need to take on tasks at the Myriad Medicine Hall, the Refining Hall, the Treasure Gathering Hall, and other places to gather Vigor Pills to exchange for martial skills, like other disciples did.
In the academy, obtaining any weapon or cultivating any martial arts technique or skill required a large number of Vigor Pills.
All resources were linked to Vigor Pills.
And they were all expensive, making it very troublesome to gather enough.
"One martial arts technique: Imperial Extreme World-Shocking Technique!"
"Three martial skills: Imperial Extreme Ghost God Steps, Coiling Dragon Finger, Void Human Emperor Slash!"
"One secret art: Divine Power Hundred Explosions!"
After reading through the "Imperial Extreme World-Shocking Record," Ye Han took a deep breath.
Not only was there a Heaven Level martial arts technique, but among the three martial skills, both Imperial Extreme Ghost God Steps and Coiling Dragon Finger were top-notch Earth Level high-grade martial skills, and as for the Void Human Emperor Slash, it was even more incredible, reaching Heaven Level high-grade.
Heaven Level high-grade!
Without Immortal Level, who could compete?
True Immortal Level martial arts techniques, martial skills, and secret arts were almost mythical in Ye Han''s mind.
It was said that even the entire Primordial Void Domain rarely saw them, so by that logic, perhaps the Cycle Academy didn''t have any?
Ye Han suddenly felt like everything was a dream.
What was happening today?
Was this a pie from the sky, falling right onto his head, fed directly into his mouth?
Could such good fortune really exist?
The secret art "Divine Power Hundred Explosions" that came with the "Imperial Extreme World-Shocking Record" was no simple matter.
It was said that once mastered, it could allow for a brief burst of divine power in battle, with each explosion stacking another layer of combat power.
If one could reach a hundred explosions, it would be an invincible existence within the Divine Power Realm, with no one in the same realm able to match.
What to do next?
Cultivate!
With such excellent martial arts techniques and skills before him, not to seize the time to cultivate would be foolish.
Moments later, Ye Han began to operate the Imperial Extreme World-Shocking Technique.

Boom, boom, boom!!!
Suddenly, Ye Han''s expression changed.
He felt the divine power within him begin to surge, boiling in an instant.
Not only that, but his two strands of divine power were incredibly tyrannical, rampaging through his limbs and bones, crashing through countless meridians.
A pain like his body being torn apart suddenly emerged, and his entire body felt as if it was about to burst.
"Suppress it!"
In an instant, Ye Han operated the Nine Heavens Dragon Control Technique, trying to calm everything down inside.
As soon as the Nine Heavens Dragon Control Technique was activated, Ye Han immediately found the intense pain inside him disappeared.
The divine power driven by the Nine Heavens Dragon Control Technique completely overshadowed the power stirred by the Imperial Extreme World-Shocking Technique. As the two techniques'' energies collided within his body, the Imperial Extreme World-Shocking Technique was already rendered ineffective.
"Ah, what...?"
Ye Han was dumbfounded and speechless.
The Imperial Extreme World-Shocking Technique, a Heaven Level technique, was unpracticable for him?
No, it wasn''t that he couldn''t practice it, but after cultivating the Nine Heavens Dragon Control Technique, the Imperial Extreme World-Shocking Technique simply couldn''t operate and was completely suppressed.
"A Heaven Level technique, unable to compare with my Nine Heavens Dragon Control Technique, not even on the same level?"
"Could it be that what I obtained from the Nine Realms Dragon-Sealing Tower is a true Immortal Level technique?"
Ye Han''s pupils flickered, and numerous thoughts emerged on the spot.
