Chapter 195 - 195: One Hundred and Ninety-One: How to Dominate the World

Tang Luo nodded slightly and said to everyone, “Not only that, to perfect this secret technique, it needs not only a matching method of recovering spiritual power and reducing consumption, but also a simplified method that can be executed quickly, a safe way of imparting the secret technique, and a completely new combat approach.”

Could one dominate the world just by developing a secret technique? That is nothing but the fantasy from third-rate stories. To turn a secret technique into real combat power, all these preparations are indispensable. Some of them even require one or two generations of ongoing study and experimentation.

Especially for such a technique that can change an era, even more preparation is required.

Discovering such a groundbreaking martial technique is just the beginning, far from the end. Everyone has ideas, some people think that they can lead a luxurious life once they have a new idea, eventually, it all turns into a shallow thought.

Who doesn’t possess creativity? The transient spark of Spiritual Light won’t favor you alone. Most of the martial artists who had secret techniques eventually faded into obscurity. This was because they failed to refine and evolve this fleeting Spiritual Light!

For example, the three unique secret techniques created by Tang Luo actually all share the same imprint method. This complex imprinting technique is so advanced it remains to be seen whether an ordinary martial artist could even learn it. Therefore, it needs to be simplified.

Then, consider the vast Spiritual Power needed to activate the imprint technique. From the reserve of a typical martial artist’s Spiritual Power, it would need to be a martial artist who has been practicing for at least 15 years to have enough Spiritual Power to execute it. However, this is merely a one-shot deal, after which you need to recover and rest. Therefore, if you want to use this as a regular technique, a suitable recovery method and energy-saving secret technique are also vital.

Creating a unique and unusual technique isn’t difficult, but what really determines whether it can dominate the world is the subsequent researchers’ depth of exploration into this ingenious technique. For example, in Tang Clan’s Scripture Pavilion, there are a few Earth Level techniques that have been left alone. None of Tang Clan’s core disciples have cultivated these techniques. Why?

Because these techniques don’t have any killing moves or secret arts, and despite their high level, they lack real combat power. It’s like a three-story building – it looks tall, but inside it’s just a crude and rough shell that is barely habitable.

Meanwhile, though the Heavenly Pathway Technique is only a Xuan-level technique, it comes with its own killing weapon. Coupled with continued research from the Tang Clan researchers, they developed the “Heaven-Ascending Step” body technique. They even found a few body forging techniques, which are currently undergoing modifications, that fit well with the Heavenly Pathway Technique. Not to mention the secret techniques that allow various martial arts stages to apply for burst, escape, and desperate situations.

It’s all these refinements that have established the Tang Clan’s dominance in Xiling. Even if the main clan technique wasn’t the Heavenly Pathway Technique, but something else like the Piercing Ground Technique, the outcome wouldn’t be different.

The secret technique developed by Tang Luo is the same. This secret technique can be considered as the foundation for a skyscraper. It promises you a wonderful future, but without a large group of researchers to build upon it, it’s merely an obscure killing weapon.

Furthermore, this technique, which involves the fusion of martial skills using imprinting techniques, was developed based on the techniques displayed by Elder Xu in his battles. It’s like a pirated version of a fusion technique. If they encounter a sacred place, even if everyone in Tang Clan learns this secret technique, how could they win?

Tang Luo clearly understood his own advantages. Because he didn’t revere the saints, he wouldn’t be constrained by their doctrines. As he had lived for two lives and had a broad vision, his creativity is far greater than the others in the Secret Arts Pavilion. However, he wouldn’t ignore his own weaknesses because of his strengths.

Having creativity doesn’t mean that you can push research to an astonishing height. Being ahead by a step merely indicates an early discovery. The deciding factor for this secret technique’s success is the surroundings centered around the imprint method.

This is the main reason why he decided to contribute the imprinting method to the Secret Arts Pavilion. Because he believed that these researchers, who devote themselves to studying the teachings of the saints, could give him a big surprise if they had a research goal!

The Secret Arts Pavilion was filled with high morale due to this groundbreaking secret technique. Even the elders like Tang Hongtao were somewhat excited. Everyone agreed to stop all current work to develop this secret technique to its fullest extent.

Tang Hongtao divided the people in the Pavilion into three groups to separately research recovery techniques and secret arts, the development and simplification of the imprint technique, and the encryption methods for imparting techniques.

Tang Luo was assigned to the group developing and simplifying the techniques, and he was made the group leader. This was his own request because the imprinting technique was developed by him. Therefore, it was more efficient for him to participate in this part of the work. Under his command were Tang Guangyu, Tang Bokang, and Tang Xiangwen—the top martial arts reform researchers in the Secret Arts Pavilion.

After the groups were divided, Tang Luo was eager to dive into research with his team members. However, he was mysteriously pulled aside by Tang Hongtao.

Just as Tang Luo was full of passion and energy, he was dragged to a corner of the Secret Arts Pavilion. If it weren’t for the fact that it was Tang Hongtao, he would have been furious, because his team members were waiting for him. So he anxiously asked, “Master, what’s the matter? Why do we have to come over here to talk?”

Tang Hongtao looked kind, but there was an undeniable worry in his eyes. He said to Tang Luo, “Child, have you considered the consequences of your confrontation with the elders yesterday?”

From this one sentence alone, Tang Luo understood everything. He knew that Tang Hongtao was worried about yesterday’s altercation and was concerned that he, buoyed by a moment of success, would ignore the elders’ dignity.

“Master, don’t worry about that. Today, I’ve already sent letters of apology and delivered the promised fusion technique to the residences of all the elders. This should be enough to make up for yesterday’s mistake.”

Only when he really considered Tang Luo as his nephew would Tang Hongtao pull him aside for such a candid discussion. Hence, Tang Luo responded sincerely.

Everyone at the clan’s meeting yesterday held real power within the Tang Clan and commanded tens of thousands of martial artists. With the way he acted yesterday, he would definitely have given everyone the impression that he was arrogant and ignorant. If he chose to ignore this matter and let it pass, his reputation in the clan would be tarnished beyond repair.

This would be much worse than the rumors spread by his clan brothers and sisters. Considering the current situation, when Tang Luo assumes power, the people at the center of power in the Tang Clan would probably still be these people. He would still have to work with them for a long time, so he must find a way to smooth things over. This is what he must do now.

Besides, he still wants to benefit the people of Xiling. With the new decree just issued, any elder’s dissatisfaction with his actions could pose a massive problem for the issuance of the decree. For example, if you want to divide the barren land in Xiling and make a register, you need people. If the elder in charge of this matter drags his feet, the register won’t be ready even when autumn comes.

Also, the finances for the new government departments. If the elder in charge of finances stalls in his approval, who would want to do this job?

There are many such obstacles. Therefore, Tang Luo’s decision to send a letter to the elders was not out of weakness or pretense, but because he understood that he needs to maintain a good relationship with these people to get his work done better.

If he does not have their assistance, it would be challenging for Tang Luo to do anything in Xiling..
