Chapter 2309: Chapter 2306: Cultivation Technique

"It’s...mine?" Xiao Manxuan couldn’t react and was a bit confused.

Lin Tian and Miss were also perplexed. Xiao Manxuan had no ties with Medicine King Mansion, so why would Le Hua present a gift? Without mentioning the contents, the box itself was already quite valuable.

In these times, wooden antiques are expensive, because they’re difficult to preserve, and high-quality heirlooms are even rarer. Looking at the craftsmanship of the box, it’s definitely Song Yanan’s level.

"Take it, it’s for you. Open it and have a look." Le Hua smiled kindly, as if treating his own granddaughter.

Xiao Manxuan blinked, turned to Lin Tian for advice, and he nodded, indicating her to accept. Xiao Manxuan took it and opened the box, revealing a golden scroll in front of everyone.

This was a golden scroll, somewhat similar to the Nine Needle Technique scroll, but the content was unknown.

Filled with doubt, Xiao Manxuan picked up the golden scroll and slowly unfurled it. In ancient times, inscriptions on golden scrolls were reserved for important records because they lasted longer than inscriptions on bells and tripods.

"I...I can’t understand this..." Xiao Manxuan glanced at it, realizing they were strange characters that seemed familiar yet unreadable: "Is this gold script?"

She finally remembered, the text on the Nine Needle Technique was gold script, somewhat similar to this. Lin Tian glanced over and confirmed it indeed was gold script, with ancient and solemn font.

Le Hua smiled, no longer playing the guessing game: "Indeed, it’s gold script. This scroll records a deeply profound cultivation technique called the Burning Sky Technique."

"It’s too precious, I can’t accept it." Xiao Manxuan immediately wanted to return it. Although she’s not an Ancient Martial Artist, she understood that a cultivation technique from the Ancient Hidden Stream would cause great waves in the Ancient Martial World.

Le Hua shook his head, refusing to take it back: "There’s no sense in retrieving a gift from the Medicine King Mansion. Once it’s in your hands, it has become part of your destiny."

Even in these times, precious gifts are forcefully given and can’t be refused, leaving Lin Tian speechless.

Unsure of what to do, Xiao Manxuan looked to Lin Tian and her sister, feeling puzzled. Although she couldn’t cultivate Ancient Martial arts, why would Elder Le Hua still give her a cultivation technique?

Lin Tian stepped forward, asking: "Xuanxuan can’t cultivate Ancient Martial arts. May I ask what the Great Elder intends by gifting this technique?"

Le Hua was momentarily lost in thought as if recalling something, and after a pause, he responded: "The Burning Sky Technique has been kept in the library for hundreds of years, yet over the centuries, no one in Medicine King Mansion has been able to cultivate it."

"Logically, people from Medicine King Mansion should naturally excel in cultivating fire-related techniques, but attempts to cultivate Burning Sky Technique have consistently failed, no matter how talented the disciple."

"Over time, everyone forgot about Burning Sky Technique, and it was shelved. Yesterday, while I was reading in the library, this box suddenly fell off the bookshelf. I believe it’s destiny that while Medicine King Mansion’s people can’t cultivate it, perhaps you might succeed." Le Hua gazed at Xiao Manxuan with hopeful eyes.

"Xuanxuan can’t cultivate Ancient Martial arts. Previously, whenever she tried, it would provoke an uncontrollable foreign energy," Miss explained.

A realization struck Lin Tian; what he considered might align with Le Hua’s thoughts.

As if responding to Lin Tian’s thoughts, Le Hua continued: "You must have sensed it; Miss Xuanxuan, after taking the Blood Spirit Pill, no longer requires Ice Soul suppression, and there’s foreign energy flowing through her meridians. You should understand what this means."

Of course, Lin Tian understood. Previously, foreign energy couldn’t obediently stay within meridians and would have rampaged.

"Previously, I didn’t understand why no ancestor could cultivate Burning Sky Technique, regardless of their talent. Meeting Xuanxuan, I realized it’s not about talent; rather, the technique demands high-quality energy, which Xuanxuan possesses." Le Hua’s eyes revealed a clarity, resolving centuries-old mysteries.

"I understand now. Thank you, Great Elder." As the little girl remained doubtful, Lin Tian accepted the gift on her behalf.

Seeing Lin Tian agree, Xiao Manxuan naturally wouldn’t refuse, trusting Lin Tian’s judgment.

"No need to thank me. You’re the owner of Medicine King Mansion, and as long as you agree, she can even access all the books and techniques in the library. Giving a technique is nothing; it’s all a matter of destiny." Le Hua smiled.

Lin Tian was amused yet helpless, wondering if Medicine King Mansion’s owner isn’t just a nominal position? Why hadn’t he developed a sense of control?

For every clan, the library is a sacred place, housing their cultivation techniques, martial skills, along with predecessors’ cultivation insights. In any era, knowledge is the core of heritage.

If Lin Tian can freely access the library, it shows the title "owner" isn’t just for show.

"Let Ling’er see you off. The helicopter is waiting outside the mountains, ready to take you back to Langya Pavilion. Until we meet again." Le Hua waved gently, bidding farewell.

"Take care, Elder Yan; take care, Great Elder." Lin Tian respectfully bid farewell with a fist salute.

Picking up his backpack and carrying his zither case, Lin Tian, along with the Xiao sisters and Yan Lingling, descended the mountain, followed by Little Snow and Bai.

Watching them leave, Yan Shan sighed slightly: "We ultimately grow old. This world belongs to the young."

"Miss Zi Yan was right, it’s his era." Le Hua also gently mused, filled with hope for the future, yet feeling the chill of being left behind by time.

What Le Hua referred to as outside the mountain wasn’t just outside Medicine King Mansion. Lin Tian and his companions descended the mountain, traversing the snowy plains and glaciers they had once crossed to finally reach the grasslands outside the mountains, where the helicopter awaited them.

"Brother Lin Tian, let’s ride Little Snow and Bai, so Sister Xuanxuan won’t be so tired." Yan Lingling jumped onto Bai’s back with a smile.

Xiao Manxuan followed, playfully grinning: "Sister, you and Lin Tian can ride Little Snow."

The Miss glanced at Lin Tian, her expression slightly awkward, filled with wandering thoughts. This big rascal, if they fly into the sky, wouldn’t he have his way? She couldn’t forget that previous kiss.

Lin Tian raised his brow, provocatively looking at her: "What’s wrong? Afraid? Is the dignified Miss really afraid of heights?"

"Ride if you wish, who’s afraid of whom, hmph!" Miss huffed, refusing to admit defeat, just like when they first met.

Lin Tian merely chuckled, then jumped onto Little Snow’s back, followed by Miss, standing behind him. Although Little Snow was large, only its wings were expansive, leaving limited space to land on its back.

So, Miss regretted coming up because she was nearly pressed against Lin Tian’s back, only a fist-width apart, with his masculine aura lingering around her nose, causing her heartbeat to quicken.
