Human Clan Defender-Chapter 652 - s Great Qin’s Concerns, Refinement of Divine Spirit Blood (Four-in-One, Request for Monthly Ticket)_2

"I believe I don't need to remind anyone further of the consequences for those who violate this."

Upon hearing this, everyone nodded.

"Rest assured, Pavilion Master, we will certainly not reveal anything," they said.

"Good." Shen Changqing nodded. "All of you, open your minds. Do not resist; otherwise, if you get injured, don't blame me."

Upon hearing these words, although everyone was puzzled, they still did as they were told.

Nearby, Yi Ning hesitated for a moment but still said nothing.

If I must open my mind, then I must. Given his status, there's no way he'd harbor ill intent towards me. To put it another way, even if he really wanted to harm me, I wouldn't have the strength to resist. If I can't stop it, then I must bear it openly.

At this moment, Shen Changqing calmed his mind, and a powerful Divine Sense spread out, enveloping everyone in the great hall. The memories relating to the Compendium of Martial Arts were all transmitted to them through this Divine Sense.

A moment later, the Divine Sense retracted. All present involuntarily closed their eyes, silently digesting the strange memories. Shen Changqing did not disturb them, allowing them to digest at their own pace.

The Compendium of Martial Arts was a complete system he had compiled using all his knowledge. The amount of information contained within was immense, and it was not easy to digest.

For now, Shen Changqing had only transmitted the Compendium of Martial Arts to the Demon-Subduing Division members. To spread it fully, he needed to wait for the right moment. Now was not that time.

Two hours later, Yi Ning was the first to fully digest the memories. When he opened his eyes, they were filled with nothing but shock. This time, he was truly stunned.

The Compendium of Martial Arts!

After digesting the memories, Yi Ning finally understood just how important this so-called Compendium of Martial Arts truly was. From the Body Tempering Realm to the Heavenly Human Realm, everything was described in detail—even the methods for breaking through each realm and how to do so to strengthen one's foundation. Not only that, but it also matched each realm with the necessary Martial Arts techniques. This… this is the true crux of the matter.

Martial Arts were especially important for any Sect Forces. Moreover, each force's Martial Arts had its own focus, making them unsuitable for everyone. However, the Martial Arts recorded in the Compendium of Martial Arts gave Yi Ning a sense of being well-balanced.

In other places, the term "well-balanced" might not necessarily be a compliment. But here, it became particularly important. Being well-balanced meant that the Martial Arts recorded here could be practiced by anyone. As long as one had the talent to set foot on the Martial Dao, they could cultivate the Martial Arts within.

Moreover, he discovered that the Martial Arts discussed within, in terms of rank, were all considered top-tier for their respective realms. Even the Martial Arts he himself practiced couldn't necessarily boast a significant advantage over these.

With this realization, Yi Ning was even more shocked. He looked at Shen Changqing, his eyes filled with subtle shifts.

What does this Great Qin Defender want to do? Creating such an extensive Compendium of Martial Arts just for the people of the Martial Hall clearly isn't his only intention. The only possibility is that he has bigger plans.

After contemplating for a while, Yi Ning seemed to realize something, and his mind shook once more.

Meanwhile, the others also gradually finished digesting the Compendium of Martial Arts. Like Yi Ning, after receiving the content of the Compendium of Martial Arts, they were filled with nothing but shock. People like Zhong Ning, however, thought of some deeper implications. Nevertheless, no one spoke up to inquire about it. Some matters, if not meant to be asked, must not be questioned.

Gongye Yue recalled the content in his mind, the shock on his face impossible to hide. If this Compendium of Martial Arts could be passed on to the Gongye Family, they would surely rise within a hundred years! But... no. It's impossible to transfer it to the Gongye Family, at least not for now. I can't take Shen Changqing's earlier warning as a joke. If I really revealed it on my own, what awaited the Gongye Family might not be a rapid rise, but a fall into an abyss. In that case, I would be the eternal sinner of the Gongye Family. Therefore, the Compendium of Martial Arts absolutely must not be revealed, unless I have his permission; otherwise, it would be courting death.

"I have already transmitted the Compendium of Martial Arts to all of you. Since you are in the Martial Hall, your talents are beyond doubt. My hope is to see Heaven Beings, and even Immortal Golden Body Realm powerhouses, emerge from the Martial Hall in the future. Remember, without my permission, the Compendium of Martial Arts must not be disclosed. If there's nothing else, you may all leave," Shen Changqing said, waving his hand.

This Martial Dao lecture had already taken two to three days, but everyone had been so immersed in understanding Martial Arts that they hadn't noticed the passage of time.

Upon hearing this, everyone rose and bowed in unison. "Thank you, Pavilion Master, for your guidance!"

By the time they straightened up, Shen Changqing's figure had already vanished.

「----」

After leaving the great hall, Yi Ning returned to his Internal Affairs Hall. He immediately announced he would enter seclusion, delegating all affairs to the few remaining people in the Internal Affairs Hall. Having listened to the lecture, Yi Ning had gained much. He now wanted to properly digest this knowledge and see if he could further enhance his own strength.

Elsewhere, Shen Changqing had already arrived at the Imperial Palace. Under Wu Gan's guidance, he met Gu Xing. Several months had passed since their last meeting. Although Gu Xing's appearance hadn't changed significantly, the aura around him seemed to have transformed somewhat.
