After he advanced to the Dark Realm, such situations had become so frequent that he had grown somewhat numb to them.

In the sea of consciousness, the deep blue surface occasionally rippled with a few patches of fish-belly white.

A cute, small flute naturally appeared above the sea of consciousness.

The sea of consciousness was originally a vast, pure blue ocean, while the flute was as white as jade, delicate and close. Together, they created a background that made the owner, Tan Yu, feel very comfortable.

Then, from the mouthpiece of the flute, a series of graceful and smooth melodies slowly drifted out. The melodies were like silk, continuously flowing and gradually disappearing in the distance. Each time a thread disappeared, a character appeared in the air above the sea of consciousness, in formal clerical script, a very dignified font.

A...ssistance... Heart... Method... Foundation... Chapter...

The melody of the flute was relatively slow, but the appearance of the characters became faster and faster.

Tan Yu read each character carefully, savoring it.

Indeed, it was a foundational auxiliary secret technique.

The foundation chapter of the Secret Sound Transmission Technique!

The text was not long, and the trick was actually quite simple, but it required a strong foundation of internal energy. Insufficient qi and blood would prevent one from using it freely.

Within half an hour, Tan Yu read it three times and mastered this sound transmission technique.

After a simple calculation, he found that at the beginning, he might only be able to say a couple of sentences before needing to meditate to recover his internal energy.

But, at least he had finally entered the gate.

The transition from the Bright Realm to the Dark Realm was indeed a huge threshold!

Tan Yu sighed inwardly.

Once he entered the Dark Realm, the situation was completely different!

Wang Yue suddenly smiled and transmitted his voice, saying, "Your mental cultivation is truly remarkable. How about I give you the foundation chapter of the Secret Sound Transmission Technique?"

Tan Yu was taken aback: "Elder Wang, you want to give me a secret technique?"

Wang Yue smiled, thinking, "You are so stubborn, refusing to seek guidance from outsiders of other sects. What can I do? I can only do this." He couldn't help but shake his head, thinking that as a grandmaster of the Sword Sect, he actually had to rush to give a secret technique to a junior.

However, who could blame him? The child's talent, character, and temperament all suited his heart. Yuanzhi had a keen eye for people, and no other junior could match this one.

Tan Yu thought for a moment. Wang Yue had mentioned the Secret Sound Transmission Technique earlier, clearly with the intention of teaching it, but he had been attracted by the inheritance in his sea of consciousness and hadn't responded in time... His face turned red.

"Elder Wang, please forgive me. I didn't mean to be disrespectful just now..."

"I know..." Wang Yue said halfway, suddenly pausing. The words, spoken by Tan Yu with a slight movement of his lips, seemed to be etched into his heart without a sound.

"Have you already learned it?" Wang Yue was greatly surprised.

Tan Yu smiled awkwardly. He found that after saying just two sentences, he couldn't say a third.

A faint light flashed around Wang Yue, and Tan Yu's qi and blood immediately surged, as if they were about to overflow.

"I have just learned it, Elder Wang, please correct me." With Wang Yue's assistance, Tan Yu managed to say the last two sentences.

"Truly worthy of the Tan family's supreme inheritance." Wang Yue sighed in admiration. "Before you speak, think about what you want to say, refine it, and then speak. This can save a lot of energy."

Tan Yu nodded, understanding. Given his current lack of power, he could only combine three sentences into one, just like sending a telegram in the past, where more words meant higher costs.

Wang Yue then simply recited a mnemonic, a small trick to refine qi and blood, especially suitable for Tan Yu, who had just advanced and was full of vigor.

Tan Yu silently recited the mnemonic and practiced it several times. Indeed, he felt his internal qi and blood become more refined, secretly rejoicing that he had finally taken a solid first step on his long journey in the Dark Realm.

At the same time, his skill in the Secret Sound Transmission Technique seemed to have improved significantly.

"Thank you, Elder Wang, for your guidance!" Tan Yu was very grateful. Wang Yue was a top-tier powerhouse, dominating Jingluo for decades, having seen countless people. He never expected such kindness from him.

Wang Yue smiled and asked, "No need to thank me! Are you a descendant of the Tan family from Wuling? Back in the day, I traveled in the north with your maternal grandparents and fought against powerful enemies together. The friendship forged in blood and sword is deep. Now that your family has a successor, I am deeply gratified."

Only then did Tan Yu understand that he and the other party had such a deep connection. Given Wang Yue's status, this matter was undoubtedly true.

"Grandpa Wang!" Tan Yu immediately changed his address, calling out sweetly. However, due to his lack of qi and blood, he didn't force himself to transmit the sound, as Wang Yue's assistance was already sufficient.

Wang Yue smiled and said, "Xiao Yu, your master, Zhang Xuan, is not inferior to me in seniority. You can still call me Elder Wang in daily life."

"Yes, but since no one is around, I will still call you Grandpa Wang!" Tan Yu was delighted to hear Wang Yue's change of address, feeling that he now had a solid and powerful backer.

Wang Yue didn't stop him and said, "I heard that the Celestial Master Sect has a sword technique. I hope to have the opportunity to see it, but I rarely come to the south, and your master has been in seclusion for years, so I didn't want to be an unwelcome guest."

"Master has been recovering from injuries and only recently recovered, so he went to Dongchuan. But if you come, Grandpa Wang, Master will be very happy." Tan Yu spoke frankly, as it was his elder, and he could speak his mind.

"Um, Xiao Yu, do you want to learn sword techniques?" Wang Yue suddenly asked.

Tan Yu was greatly moved. Sword techniques from a sword god, personally taught... However, he remained silent.

"Hehe, I don't necessarily need you to join my Purple Lightning Sword Sect," Wang Yue said, knowing his concerns. "As your great-uncle, I can still teach you sword techniques."

"Ah, that would be great!" Tan Yu exclaimed. "Grandpa Wang, you are so kind!"

"Is that so?" Wang Yue raised an eyebrow.

He had earned his great reputation in the north, not just because of his superb sword techniques, but also because he had killed countless enemies with his Purple Lightning Sword, piling up a mountain of bloody corpses. He never expected to be given a "good person card" by this young man.

Tan Yu, who had just started learning sword techniques, was very interested. He simplified his experience of the sword duel with Jin Wei in the cave and recounted it to Wang Yue in detail.

Wang Yue carefully asked about the details of the various moves and responses at the time, quickly simulating the scene with over 90% accuracy.

Tan Yu was secretly amazed. This was how professional experts viewed the world of sword techniques. Truly a terrifying sword god.

Wang Yue helped Tan Yu break down each move, slowly guiding him on how to deal with fast knives and fast swords like Jin Wei. His insights were profound and often hit the core.

Tan Yu was captivated by his clear and insightful explanations, his mind rapidly processing the information. Many long-standing puzzles were resolved, and he even gained new insights into his core martial art: spear techniques.

When Wang Yue finally stopped teaching, Tan Yu was still lost in thought, his mind wandering for a long time before he came back to his senses.

He couldn't help but sigh inwardly, "If I hadn't already joined Master Zhang's sect, I would have definitely asked Grandpa Wang to be my master today. Such a battle-hardened master, an undefeated sword god, is probably hard to come by in the future."

He didn't know that Wang Yue was also feeling emotional, "Xiao Yu's comprehension is even better than Yuanzhi's. I really want to compete with Zhang Xun for him!"

Each with their own thoughts, they simultaneously ascended to the peak of Laojun Mountain.

The importance of small tickets is even greater than that of monthly tickets. I really want to compete for one with you!
