Although the scholar’s words seemed very arrogant, there was an aura of confidence accompanying it, making it hard for anyone to question him.
Liang Yifei couldn’t help but chuckle at the scholar’s words. "Senior, you are overestimating my abilities. My bloodline isn’t as amazing as you said," he replied with a modest smile.
The scholar’s eyes twinkled with amusement as he regarded Liang. "Ah, humility, a virtue that is often overlooked. But let me assure you, little brother, that your bloodline holds great potential. The power of the Netherworld Serpent and the Void Dragon combined, it is a rare and formidable combination."
Liang Yifei, maintaining his polite smile, couldn’t help but sneer inwardly at the scholar’s words. He knew well the potential of his bloodline, and the scholar’s attempt to play it down only made him more dubious of the scholar’s true intentions. Besides, the scholar hasn’t guessed his true bloodline. Although it’s true that the Infernal Void Serpent has characteristics of both the Netherworld Serpent and the Void Dragon, it’s an entirely different being from them.
Feigning surprise, Liang widened his eyes and clasped his hands in mock astonishment. "Senior, you truly surprise me with your insights. I had no idea the combination of my bloodline was so extraordinary. I am indeed fortunate."
The scholar’s amusement seemed to grow, his eyes narrowing ever so slightly as if he saw through Liang’s facade. "Ah, little brother, there is no need for false modesty. Your potential is evident. Embrace it and strive to reach new heights."
"Is that so, Senior? I must admit, I have yet to fully comprehend the extent of my bloodline’s capabilities. If you deem it worthy of attention, I would be grateful for any guidance you can offer."
The scholar nodded approvingly, a glimmer of excitement in his eyes. "Very well, little brother. I shall provide you with some insights and teachings on harnessing the power of your unique bloodline. But first, let us find a quieter and more secluded corner of this vast hall, where we can delve into the depths of knowledge undisturbed."
With that, the scholar gestured for Liang to follow him, leading the way deeper into the labyrinthine corridors of the sutras hall.
Pointing ahead, the scholar remarked, "That right there is the bloodline section. If you were to inquire about my favorite spot in this entire hall of sutras, now you have your answer."
As they walked deeper into the vast expanse, Liang couldn’t help but notice the scholar’s enthusiasm for the bloodline section. The scholar’s eyes sparkled with excitement, a genuine passion shining through.
"Senior, it seems like you have a particular interest in bloodlines," Liang remarked, curiosity lacing his words.
The scholar nodded, a pleased expression gracing his face. "Indeed, little brother. There’s an incredible wealth of knowledge and power within bloodlines, and it’s one of the aspects of cultivation that I find most fascinating. Hence, this section of the sutras hall holds a special place in my heart."

The scholar led Liang to a secluded corner of the sutras hall, where ancient tomes and scrolls lined the shelves, their worn pages holding the secrets of generations past. As they entered, the scholar’s eyes gleamed with reverence and excitement.
"Here, little brother, is where we keep every technique related to the dragons," the scholar announced, his voice filled with a mix of pride and anticipation. He ran his hand along the row of jade slips before finally stopping at one, a faint smile playing on his lips.
"This is the Void Dragon Transformation Sutra," the scholar said, his voice filled with awe. "One of our esteemed members managed to kill a young Void Dragon and obtained this technique from its remains."
Next, the scholar retrieved another jade slip. "And this, my young friend, is the Soaring Dragon Transformation Sutra," he announced, his voice tinged with excitement. "It was also obtained by the same individual who killed the Void Dragon, after slaying a Soaring Dragon."
With a knowing smile, the scholar procured one final jade slip. "And lastly, we have the Netherworld Dragon Transformation Sutra," he said, his voice steady and filled with reverence. "This was also obtained by the same remarkable individual after killing a Netherworld Dragon."
"These techniques may not go beyond the Dao Integration realm, but they hold incredible power for cultivators like us who possess the bloodline of serpents and dragons."
Liang’s eyes flashed with surprise as he looked at the jade slips in the scholar’s hands. Each one represented a rare and powerful technique, passed down through generations and obtained through extraordinary means.
The scholar handed the jade slip of the Void Dragon Transformation Sutra to Liang. "This technique will enhance your control over the Void Qi and allow you to tap into the immense power of the Void Dragon. Although transformation into an actual Void Dragon is beyond reach, you will undoubtedly acquire several of its formidable abilities."
Next, the scholar presented the Soaring Dragon Transformation Sutra. "This technique focuses on heightening your physical strength and agility, harnessing the speed and ferocity of the Soaring Dragon. While it may have its limitations, it can greatly enhance your combat prowess."
Finally, the scholar divulged the existence of the Netherworld Dragon Transformation Sutra. "Unfortunately, there is an absence of a bloodline technique specifically related to the Netherworld Serpent within our vast repository. However, I present to you the Netherworld Dragon Transformation Sutra as the next best alternative."
Liang gratefully accepted the jade slips, his face breaking into a thankful smile. "Thank you, Senior. If I had tried to uncover these techniques by myself, it would have undoubtedly consumed a significant amount of my time."
Despite not feeling an ounce of gratitude in his heart, he found himself compelled to feign appreciation for the scholar’s supposed favor, ensuring that no traces of doubt would arise within him.
The scholar affectionately patted Liang on the shoulder and let out a warm chuckle. "It’s no trouble at all, little brother. And henceforth, feel free to address me as Brother Fan."
