When the Sacred Ancestor's Dreamscape shattered, it transformed into snow-white pellets, dividing into three parts.
One part entered his body, thoroughly refining it, allowing him to practice the Celestial Dragon-Elephant Scripture, which no one had mastered before, with the ease of drinking water.
Another part entered his left hand, becoming the Left Hand of the Sacred Ancestor, capable of countering all Divine Master Spells.
The last part entered his head, and to this day, it has shown its wonders multiple times, but it seems that the marvels Luo Lie has unearthed are far from reaching their pinnacle.
The Artistic Concept of the Dragonstride—Riding the Wind and Waves, which had not yet fused, was effortlessly completed under the naturally occurring imagery in his thoughts.
The most remarkable thing was that Luo Lie clearly felt this Artistic Concept was even higher.
If the Artistic Concept when Qin Zhi and Yao Feng created this Martial Technique was one of Bold Aspirations and Soaring Ambitions, then now it was akin to Soaring Above the Nine Heavens, more unrestrained, more domineering, and more imposing.
Seeing Luo Lie not responding, Qin Zhi chuckled, "It's just that your master is too excited. The fact that you can sense the different Artistic Concepts is already incredible. At such a young age, how could you possibly fuse the Artistic Concepts of the two of us?"
"Indeed, we are already very, very satisfied." The usually stern-faced Yao Feng was also full of excitement, visibly thrilled.
As soon as the two elders finished speaking, Luo Lie suddenly leaped.
In an instant, the sound of a dragon's roar and a tsunami surged forth.
The surrounding air vibrated like ocean waves crashing against the sky.
The wind moved as if wild dragons were emitting long roars, propelling Luo Lie directly to the top of the Elegant Heart Hall, fifteen or sixteen meters away.
"Fusion, it's fused?" "Such a brilliant Artistic Concept, just this momentum alone is enough to intimidate others."
The two elders were in awe.
Liu Hongyan couldn't help but gasp. She knew Luo Lie was exceptionally strong in Martial Techniques, but she never expected to have underestimated him; he was even stronger than imagined.
Luo Lie leaped like a wild dragon soaring through the sky, like a mighty dragon roaming, like ocean waves crashing against the heavens, freely demonstrating the mysteries of the Dragonstride—Riding the Wind and Waves.
That Artistic Concept, that freedom, was indescribably graceful.

The two elders were ultimately captivated, though they were the creators, their Artistic Concept was slightly inferior. Watching Luo Lie's display, they quickly gained new insights.
When Luo Lie landed in front of the two elders, they were still lost in the experience.
After a while, the two elders finally came to their senses.
"Marvelous, marvelous indeed, your Artistic Concept for the Dragonstride—Riding the Wind and Waves is too brilliant, more suited to this Movement Technique."
Qin Zhi praised.
"I have re-understood your Artistic Concept, it's no longer my half-baked one."
Yao Feng also expressed his admiration.
Luo Lie was equally excited.
He was thrilled because he might be able to delve deeper into the wonders brought by the Sacred Ancestor's Legacy in Martial Techniques or other areas.
Liu Hongyan gracefully approached, unable to hide her admiration for Luo Lie, giving him a thumbs up before turning to the two elders, "Gentlemen, would you consider taking Luo Lie as your disciple?"
"Of course!" "Couldn't be more satisfied!" The two elders couldn't conceal their joy.
Luo Lie was happy to be recognized by the two elders, but he hadn't yet acknowledged them.
"Gentlemen, there's something I need to clarify."
Luo Lie said, "Accepting a disciple requires a test, and becoming a disciple also requires testing the teacher's abilities. If the teacher cannot meet my requirements, I'm sorry, but I won't become a disciple."
"Uh?" The two elders and Liu Hongyan were taken aback.
They had never heard of testing a teacher's qualifications to teach oneself.
"You think we, at the Fate Palace Stage, are not qualified to be your teachers?" Yao Feng's face turned cold again.
"Then do you think it's difficult for me to surpass the Fate Palace Stage?"
Luo Lie retorted.
Yao Feng was speechless.
Qin Zhi said, "It's not difficult, your potential is outstanding, and your comprehension is extraordinary. Surpassing the Fate Palace Stage, even attaining the Impeccable Golden Body and pursuing immortality, wouldn't be too hard for you."
"In that case, if I attain the Impeccable Golden Body and you are still at the Fate Palace Stage, or even stronger at the Shattering Stage, then as a disciple, I would have to spend a lot of time guiding the teachers in their cultivation. Wouldn't that be a waste of time, hindering my pursuit of immortality?"
Luo Lie said calmly, "So I need to test your comprehension. If your comprehension is sufficient, even if I guide you as a disciple in the future, I can help you attain the Impeccable Golden Body."
The two elders' mouths twitched.
Liu Hongyan almost couldn't help but laugh.
Luo Lie was actually considering guiding his teachers as a disciple in the future.
Luo Lie continued, "I observed that in the Martial Techniques you created, there is no trace of Universal Momentum, indicating that although your cultivation is advanced, you have not yet comprehended Universal Momentum. Here's the deal: in the Overlord's Palace, there is a pillar that contains some traces of the Overlord's comprehension of Universal Momentum. If you can comprehend it within half a year, I can acknowledge you as my teachers; if you comprehend it within a year, you can only be my nominal teachers; if you can't comprehend it within a year, it means we are not destined to be."
The two elders smacked their lips, finding the latter part of the statement strangely familiar.
However, one point made the two elders particularly tempted.
That was Universal Momentum.
Indeed, despite their high cultivation, they had never comprehended Universal Momentum, which was a lifelong regret and indicated their limited comprehension.
If they could leverage the traces of Universal Momentum left by the Overlord, it was possible for them to suddenly comprehend Universal Momentum, given their rich experience.
But being tested on whether they could be teachers was somewhat offensive to them, as they were highly respected and esteemed guests of the kings of several neighboring kingdoms.
"Are you two afraid, thinking your comprehension is too poor to even become my nominal teachers, and thus fear this test?"
Luo Lie said with a smile.
The two elders' expressions changed slightly.
Luo Lie continued, "Opportunities for Universal Momentum are rare, and missing it might mean never having another chance."
The two elders' expressions changed again.
They realized Luo Lie was too cunning.
First, he used a bluffing strategy, saying they couldn't do it and were afraid.
Then he offered a tempting reward, as Universal Momentum was indeed very appealing.
"How could we be afraid?"
Qin Zhi said with a stern face, "Yao Feng, let's go comprehend it. We refuse to believe that someone of our status is being doubted for our limited abilities."
He dragged Yao Feng out of the Elegant Heart Hall, heading straight for the Overlord's Palace.
However, when the two turned around, a trace of excitement flashed across their faces, eager to comprehend at the Overlord's Palace.
Liu Hongyan suppressed her laughter and quickly instructed someone to lead the way.
Once the two elders left, Liu Hongyan finally let out a cheer.
When she initially sought a teacher for Luo Lie, besides wanting a master to guide him for faster growth, there was another reason: to use Luo Lie to retain Qin Zhi and Yao Feng.
Although she had gained some benefits in this game, enough to protect herself, she was still far from being a match for Chong Houhu. Qin Zhi and Yao Feng were both strong at the Fate Palace Stage, with powers comparable to Chong Houhu. At this level, there were few in the Northern Waters Kingdom, and having them stay would greatly aid Liu Hongyan in ultimately eliminating Chong Houhu.
Though these two never interfered in domestic affairs, which was the fundamental reason for their transcendent status in several kingdoms, Liu Hongyan was confident that as long as they stayed, she could make them work for her, provided they stayed. Luo Lie had achieved this, and this achievement was far stronger than becoming someone else's disciple, because becoming a disciple would mean Luo Lie being taken to their residence, leaving the Northern Waters Kingdom.
How could Liu Hongyan not be happy? In her excitement, she gave Luo Lie a warm hug.
Then Luo Lie said something that made Liu Hongyan's heart flutter.
"Sister Hongyan, are you pursuing me so passionately? Let me tell you, even pursuing someone requires skill. I can tell you how to pursue me more easily."
