Boom!

Tina’s words completely enlightened him.

She was right! If he was worried that the Heaven Crushing Sect wasn’t wholeheartedly dedicated to the human race, then he could just infiltrate their ranks and become the top dog there!

He wouldn’t have to worry if the Heaven Crushing Sect belonged to him.

An Lin hesitated momentarily before replying, “That may work, but it’s going to be quite difficult to achieve.”

He had stayed with Chen Chen in that strange space for a hundred days, and they had many chances to converse with one another. During their conversations, he gathered that Cyril was well and truly the most powerful being in the True Demon Tribe. Setting aside all of his special abilities, just the power he had displayed on many occasions was at the God of Creation Stage. An Lin was just an insignificant Return to Void Stage cultivator. How was he supposed to compete with Cyril for the throne?

“So be it, let’s just go with the flow.” An Lin slapped his cheeks to knock some sense back into himself before climbing out of the crater.

Xu Xiaolan led the Ancient Dragon Empress and Raphaella on a brief tour of the sect.

As for the mystic realms, those were confidential, so she didn’t take them there.

Their tour concluded after half a day.

An Lin was responsible for finding students to learn the Heaven Crushing Techniques in the meantime. Apparently, only those who had mastered spatial power could learn these techniques, which meant that the prerequisite was Return to Void Stage.

Thus, he gathered the dozen or so Return to Void Stage mighty figures present at the sect.

Da Bai, Xiao Hong, Merlin, Cassidy, Xuanyuan Cheng, Su Qianyun, Ye Ling, Tina, Liu Qianhuan, Sun Yuluo, Yao Mingxi, Bai Ling…

Even Xu Xiaolan and Little Huang came to learn.

The Heaven Crushing Techniques were quite special. In order to learn them, one had to first observe the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth and understand what the heavens were. They then had to cultivate in attaining the true intent of breaking through all shackles. The specific procedures were quite complex, and one’s aptitude would determine how far they could go.

For example, the Ancient Dragon Empress was able to gather the will of her entire tribe and use the flaw of the Tai Chu Continent’s Heavenly Dao to break through the heavens even before she had learned any of the Heaven Crushing Techniques, thus destroying the entire Ancient Tai Chu Dragon Realm in the process…

In terms of aptitude in the Heaven Crushing Sect, she was the most endowed!

An Lin also had an extraordinary aptitude. With Chen Chen’s help, he had actually already mastered most of the high-level Heaven Crushing Techniques. However, he couldn’t teach anyone. Otherwise, he would act as the teacher himself.

The Ancient Dragon Empress stood on the drill ground and looked around at all of the exceptionally prodigious mighty figures gathered before her, and she couldn’t help but sigh internally with emotion. The Four Nine Immortal Sect was getting more and more terrifyingly powerful…

Most of the Four Nine Immortal Sect forces were still participating in the ongoing war.

The group here was only a small portion of their powerful beings who had come back to recuperate.

Even so, their forces could still rival any first-rate power on the entire continent.

“Teacher Ancient Dragon, when do we begin?” Sun Yuluo was quite excited.

The Ancient Dragon Empress’ expression darkened slightly. “My name is not Ancient Dragon. I am the Ancient Dragon Empress.”

Su Qianyun wore a thoughtful expression as she spoke in her mellow voice, “The ‘Empress’ should just be a term that describes your occupation, so Ancient Dragon should be your name…”

Ancient Dragon Empress: “…”

That made a lot of sense.

Speaking of which, why did she insist on calling herself the Ancient Dragon Empress again?

“Alright, just call me Jin Ling.” The Ancient Dragon Empress heaved a resigned sigh.

“Oh…!” Everyone’s eyes lit up, as if to say, we finally know the Ancient Dragon Empress’ real name now!

“Alright, Teacher Ancient Dragon Empress!” Liu Qianhuan immediately responded.

“You can just call me Jin Ling.” The Ancient Dragon Empress smiled.

“Yes, Teacher Ancient Dragon Empress,” Liu Qianhuan spoke with an earnest expression.

The Ancient Dragon Empress was dumbstruck. What was her problem?

“Sister Liu, call her Jin Ling…” Su Qianyun tugged on Liu Qianhuan’s sleeve and reminded her in her mellow voice.

“Sister Su, you have to think about this. Why did Jin Ling change her name to Ancient Dragon Empress? It must be because she doesn’t like her name, and that’s why she insists on people calling her Ancient Dragon Empress!

“It’s like someone telling you not to refer to them by their name, but instead to call them Queen or Your Majesty… She likes the name Ancient Dragon Empress, so we should try and curry her favor by referring to her by that name. She’ll be happy about how thoughtful we are and be willing to teach us more spell techniques!” Liu Qianhuan patted Su Qianyun’s head with a meaningful and heartfelt expression.

Xuanyuan Cheng was also enlightened. “Su Qianyun, don’t call her Teacher Ancient Dragon, you have to call her Teacher Ancient Dragon Empress.”

Su Qianyun also came to a sudden realization, and she turned toward the Ancient Dragon Empress with a slight smile. “Teacher Ancient Dragon Empress, when do we begin?”

The Ancient Dragon Empress clasped a hand over her chest. These idiots made such a huge roundabout journey just to arrive back at square one?! She finally worked up the courage to reveal her name only to have it looked down on and for everyone to continue to refer to her as Ancient Dragon Empress…

What the f*ck was wrong with these people?!

The Ancient Dragon Empress was feeling very depressed, but she didn’t know what to say, so she could only go ahead with the lesson. “To start off, I’ll be teaching everyone a mantra that will allow all of you to better communicate with heaven and earth and understand the true essence of the Heavenly Dao…”

The lesson commenced.

Everyone listened to the lesson diligently, and the lesson went quite smoothly.

With the exception of Da Bai, who was a bit of a pervert and was too busy looking at her body to listen to her talk. And Xiao Hong, who was a little lazy and didn’t want to do anything. And Merlin and Cassidy, who were constantly licking their lips and staring at An Lin. And Liu Qianhuan, who was a little spasmodic and always taking on different character roles. And Sun Yuluo, who was always screaming at the top of his lungs at the sight of his ghostly sword spirit. And the phoenix, who was quite naughty and always flying around. And Xuanyuan Cheng, who was a little annoying as he was basically referring to the Heaven Crushing Sect as the Heaven Exploding Sect. And Bai Ling, who was a little too professional and was using technology to replace spell techniques, as well as asking a bunch of questions the Ancient Dragon Empress didn’t even understand…

Aside from that, this was a group of students that was quite easy to instruct.

The Ancient Dragon Empress looked up into the sky with tears welling up in her eyes.

“Don’t get too dejected, Master. Your students have a lot of personalities and aren’t that difficult to teach,” Raphaella’s healing voice sounded beside her.

The Ancient Dragon Empress massaged her brows.

Raphaella: “Should I cast a heart resuscitation spell technique on you?”

“… Please do.”

The Ancient Dragon Empress nodded with an aggrieved expression.

Never would she have thought that her Heavenly Disciple Attendant would become her personal medic.

After having a heart resuscitation spell technique cast upon her, the Ancient Dragon Empress was full of vigor again and applied herself to her role.

All of the students were very “unique”, and she was constantly kept on her toes!

Before she knew it, ten days had passed.

The Ancient Dragon Empress discovered that a lot of her hair was falling out.

Thankfully, the students had learned something, and the sacrifice of her hair was not in vain.

On the drill ground.

The bright sun hung high in the sky.

The Ancient Dragon Empress faced her dozen or so students with a smile on her face.

“Today is the day I assess what all of you have learned. I hope you can perform to the best of your abilities!”
