6 Chapter 4: A Father’s Sacrifice for His Son_2
Translator: 549690339
But after the battle with Martial Saint Mountain, Tang Luo fell from the Mortal Realm to the Human Realm. Although Tang Sen did not say anything verbally, his heart sank.

Tang Sen began to doubt Tang Luo’s miraculous encounter. The speed at which he trained and then declined was inexplicable unless there was something like a Dao Seed, a Spiritual Instrument, or some other artefact aiding his cultivation. With the Tang Clan’s vast repository of information, Tang Sen had learned much about numerous little-known secrets, most of which emerged from the ruins of once great sects.

Many individuals have discovered treasures in underground palaces, martial arts techniques in caves, and relics in ancient ruins. Most of these were deviously engineered by sects for one simple reason: to create a “Bridal Clothes Technique”.

This so-called Bridal Clothes Technique was created to enhance superior techniques, and aimed to rectify some of their shortcomings. Anyone who cultivates the Bridal Clothes Technique is doomed, when encountering someone cultivating a superior technique. As long as their cultivation levels are similar, neither can escape unscathed in a duel.

Moreover, these “bridal” techniques inherently have a built-in backdoor. The practitioner of the superior technique can absorb the martial arts of the inferior practitioner, for their own benefit. While complete absorption is impossible, even a small percentage can provide substantial benefits to a practitioner at the same cultivation level.

Therefore, to avoid having one disciple essentially become stepping stones for another, a sect would set up opportunities for wandering martial artists to fight over these secondary techniques. Most of these techniques would be renamed and disguised.

The wandering martial artists, unaware of these intricacies, would blissfully train in these techniques. After arduously training for ten years and reaching the peak of Mortal Realm, they would be completely devoured by someone else, their fate reduced to being just a Bridal Clothes Practitioner.

The traps hidden within various Spiritual Instruments are even more numerous and despicable, typically designed to drain the martial artist’s essence and lifespan. Usually set by masters of demonic techniques, these traps, however, can be easily detected because they reside within physical objects.

If the miraculous encounter Tang Luo had was of this kind, then it would not be strange for him to lose his cultivation.

As Tang Luo cultivated the family’s ancestral Heavenly Pathway Technique, Tang Sen ruled out the possibility of it being a problematic technique. Consequentially, he concluded that Tang Luo’s problem must have originated from a malicious Spiritual Instrument.

He started observing Tang Luo’s cultivation from the very beginning, but found nothing. Until a few days ago, when Tang Luo fell unconscious, lost all his cultivation, and a sphere appeared in his arms. Finally, the Spiritual Instrument had appeared. The question was, who had set such a wicked trap?

Tang Sen thought he had found the culprit. After two days of research, he found that the iron sphere held no traps or mechanisms. While he could not understand its mysterious properties, he concluded that it inflicted no physical or cultivation damage.

Only the worst possibility remained: the loss of Tang Luo’s cultivation had nothing to do with his technique or encounter, but as Bu Xiao suggested, Tang Luo was possibly an Innate Hollow Body.

Looking at his son’s disbelieving face, Tang Sen felt regret. A child’s secret being discovered usually incited fear, but he wouldn’t blame him.
