--- Chapter 364 ---
"Divine Artifact!" Di Tian gasped in disbelief. He couldn't believe that Han Yuan was so generous with Na'er, a little girl he had just met.
"Han Yuan, you're not joking, right?"
Han Yuan rolled his eyes. "Do you think I'm the type of person who jokes about this? If I say I'm giving her a Divine Artifact, then I am giving her one. It's as simple as that!"
"No, no, no, it's not that simple!" Di Tian exclaimed, utterly speechless. He began to ramble on about Divine Tools, but Han Yuan casually shut his ears and ignored him.
In the Douluo Universe, a Divine Artifact—more accurately called a Divine Tool—is a creation of gods or beings comparable to them, capable of enhancing one's power beyond the ordinary.
However, only gods can wield Divine Tools perfectly, as one needs Divine Energy or Immortal Qi to operate them and unleash their true potential.
For instance, although Di Tian possessed the Dragon God's Claw and could wield it while fighting Han Yuan, it consumed a massive amount of his spirit energy.
Di Tian can wield it because the density of his spirit energy is very close to Divine Energy, thanks to his high attainment in Spirit Cores. Besides, the Dragon God's Claw is also bound to him, allowing him to unleash attacks beyond mortal standards.
However, even Di Tian couldn't continuously shoot with the Dragon God's Claw as a 'true' god could—he needed to rest and take a breath a few times first.
Wait, that sounds wrong for some reason.
Anyway, not all Divine Tools are equal. They come with different grades, ranging from the basic Divine Tool to the True Divine Tool, Pseudo-Ultra Divine Tool, and finally, the Ultra Divine Tool.
A 1st Class God wielding an Ultra-Divine Tool could burst out with the power equivalent to that of a Godking, making each one incredibly valuable.
Unfortunately, creating and nurturing an Ultra Divine Tool from scratch is extremely difficult.
Even Tang San had to ravage Douluo Star, causing suffering to all living beings there for twenty thousand years, to elevate his Sea God's Trident from a mere True Divine Tool to an Ultra Divine Tool.
Yes, his method was very crude, using the faith of the living beings to refine his Divine Tool, but unfortunately, he succeeded.
Ultimately, no amount of Ultra Divine Tools could save Asura God, Sea God, and their scheming chosen one, Tang San, from Han Yuan.
The reason lay in the Sky Poison Pearl, which, even in its fragmented state—having lost the ability to create God-Slaying Poison and living spirit—still surpassed any Ultra Divine Tool in the Douluo Universe by an immense level.
After all, it is one of the Seven Heavenly Profound Treasures, a creation of the Primal Chaos Dimension that emerged after the Ancestral God chose to perish and start anew.
By the way, the moment of the Ancestral God's death is equivalent to the second expansion of the Primal Chaos Dimension universe, giving rise to new lives and intertwining destinies. It also marks the beginning of the Primordial Age of Gods.
And with the assistance of another Heavenly Profound Treasure, the Evil Infant's Wheel of Myriad Tribulations, the horrific poison unleashed by the Sky Poison Pearl obliterated the Primordial Age of Gods, slaying gods, devils, and divine beasts alike, showing just how formidable the Sky Poison Pearl is.
What Asura Sword?
What is a Sea God's Trident?
They are nothing to the Sky Poison Pearl!
In fact, if Han Yuan wanted to, he could let the Silver Dragon King's Soul enter the Sky Poison Pearl to recuperate while also utilizing the Heavenly Profound Treasury to purify the remnants of Asura God's divine forces in her injured body, helping her reach her peak condition again.
Regardless, that would simply be giving away advantages without any benefit to Han Yuan, aside from being generous to someone who had already plotted against him.
Generous? Hehe, Han Yuan wasn't that kind!
Since the Silver Dragon King is going to pay for his kindness of helping the Spirit Beast race out of a predicament with a scheme, then Han Yuan would scheme her back.
"Enough. I am a man of my word," Han Yuan finally interrupted Di Tian's rambling. "I will give Na'er a Divine Artifact in a month or so."
"As for the cultivation techniques, here, take them."
After saying this, Han Yuan placed his index finger on the little girl's white forehead, transferring the relevant knowledge about the cultivation techniques he wished to share with her.
Na'er closed her eyes and felt a vast amount of information flooding her mind. She couldn't comprehend it all at once, but she still mumbled the names one by one.
"The Argent Dragon's Spear Whisper."
"Core Meditation Technique: Argent Dragon's Breathing Style."
"Body Refining Technique: Wyrm Ascending's Inner Furnace."
"Movement Technique: Argent Comet's Flash."
"Spiritual Technique: Argent Dragon's Soul Visualization."
"And the last is..."
"Secret Technique: Heaven Piercing Dragon's Whisper."
Upon hearing this set of cultivation techniques and their names, Di Tian and the others tilted their heads in confusion, unable to grasp their meaning.
After all, the concept of a set of cultivation techniques was uncommon in Douluo Star.
While Di Tian had a fair amount of knowledge, and even Han Yuan was certain that the Dragon Clan—especially the Dragon God—possessed their own unique cultivation techniques based on their insights, those would get categorized as Divine Techniques.
Unfortunately, there was no universal technique that everyone could use, and the cultivation techniques in the Douluo Universe weren't as diverse as the Dou Techniques.
Even a set of yellow-rank dou techniques is more than enough to be a family legacy in the Douluo Continent, and their reliance on becoming a very powerful sect.
Now, imagine what one could do with a set of high-level dou techniques, something that only upper forces on the Dou Qi Continent have.
They could change the very foundation of the world!
Of course, the set of cultivation techniques Han Yuan bestowed on Na'er isn't that high-level. They are impressive and could help her reach the peak of the Douluo Plane, but that's it.
In Dou Qi Plane's ranks, the Argent Dragon's Spear Whisper is equal to a set of peak-rank Xuan Dou Technique.
Still, because the set of techniques was so comprehensive, after all, Han Yuan made them, no dou technique of the same grade could contend against it.
Even some low-rank Earth Dou Technique might not be as good as Argent Dragon's Spear Whisper.
Furthermore, Han Yuan didn't give this set of cultivation techniques for nothing.
Yes, he was actually baiting Silver Dragon King. He wanted her to become greedy and cultivate the Argent Dragon's Spear Whisper, or even better, modify it to elevate her injury.
'By then, let's see who begs for help first, muahahaha!' Han Yuan laughed evilly.
He stayed calm outside and then commented, "From now on, train based on what the cultivation technique instructs. If you are confused, feel free to ask me."
"Do you understand?"
"Mm, Na'er understands." Na'er nodded slowly.
Well, she was confused, so she would definitely ask him later.
Han Yuan smiled faintly, "Next is your Spirit Soul."
"I promise to give you an Artificial Spirit Soul made with True Dragon's Essence Blood, and Origins, and fortunately, I do have a few in my storage tool."
"They are suitable for your Soul Dragon Spear, but only one with perfect affinity and synchronization will grow along with you on the path of cultivation."
"So, this is considered a test, but it's not dangerous at all."
"Are you ready?" Han Yuan playfully asked, causing Na'er to become nervous, and the spirit beasts nearby to become curious.
Na'er suppressed her nervousness and nodded heavily, "I-I am ready, please test me, Big Brother Han Yuan!"
"Good!" Han Yuan exclaimed in response while pulling out a few spheres from the Sky Poison Pearl.
As for being called 'Big Brother Han Yuan' by this silver-haired loli, Han Yuan really doesn't mind.
After all, the closer Na'er is to him, the more doomed the Silver Dragon King is.
