Teacher, How Do We Seek Answers Within?

The answer is here!

Meng Gun Gun, Xiao Qing, and the other five great demons all had their eyes light up when they heard the teacher was about to reveal the origin of the cube, growing even more curious.

The other great demons, though unaware of what the teacher was going to say, could tell from his actions that it had something to do with the object in his hand.

They rarely heard the teacher speak to them in such a serious and nearly solemn tone.

So, each of the great demons dropped their playful expressions, sat up straight, and prepared to hear the teacher's warning.

Ali also retracted its three tails and looked at the teacher with wide eyes, speaking in a childish voice, "Teacher, what's it about?"

Hearing this innocent voice, An Chen's heart warmed, realizing that his previous tone might have been a bit too harsh.

He nodded gently, placing the six-sided cube on the podium and explaining in a softer tone, "What I'm about to say is related to this cube. It fell from the sky and was the source of the tremor earlier."

Immediately, all the great demons fixed their eyes on the cube, surprised and a bit puzzled.

They hadn't expected the source of the earlier earthquake to be such a small object.

What was so special about it that it could create such a large crater?

Soon, the great demons learned the truth from the teacher's mouth.

"This cube is an extraterrestrial object, and it contains records of some evil cultivation techniques. These techniques come with significant drawbacks. None of you are allowed to secretly learn from them, understand?"

An Chen wasn't exaggerating the danger; it was real.

Earlier, the system had informed him that this six-sided cube contained the secret techniques of an alien race, along with a warning.

The warning was that this inheritance was extremely dangerous!

If someone from Blue Star cultivated according to these techniques, they would seem to progress smoothly and grow very powerful on the surface, but a disaster would be secretly planted within them.

One day in the future, when the alien race launched a large-scale invasion of Blue Star, they could directly trigger these disasters, and at that time, there would be countless casualties!

An Chen also considered another crucial point.

This cube was only the first inheritance, No. 001, and it had happened to fall within Kunlun Mountain, where the students found it.

What would happen when other inheritances, like No. 002, No. 003, and so on, appeared around the world and were picked up by others?

An Chen pondered for a moment and shook his head.

No matter what changes occurred in the outside world, his priority was to protect the students sitting before him and help them grow and become strong as quickly as possible.

Therefore, when explaining the cube earlier, An Chen hadn't mentioned that it was a product of an alien race.

Firstly, he didn't want to scare the children, and secondly, he didn't want to place too much pressure on them.

Meanwhile, the great demons sitting below were all wide-eyed, full of curiosity when they heard that the small object was something from beyond the stars.

They hadn't expected to see something from outside this planet one day.

At the same time, the great demons all looked at An Chen with deep admiration and awe!

They hadn't expected that, even though the teacher's eyes couldn't see, he could clearly identify the cube as an extraterrestrial object and know that it contained evil cultivation techniques.

This level of skill and insight left them completely in awe. They thought, "As expected from our teacher, even knowing things beyond this planet. He's truly getting more and more impressive!"

None of them dared to disobey the teacher's wishes, and they all responded one by one.

"Rest assured, Teacher, we won't attempt to secretly learn from it!"

"Yeah, I promise I won't even glance at it."

"Teacher, I'm the most obedient. I'll cover my eyes right now..."

One by one, the great demons made their promises, their tones firm and resolute.

In fact, not only were they unable to cultivate from it, they couldn't even understand the text and diagrams recorded on the cube, so how could they possibly cultivate from it?

Hearing his students' responses, An Chen nodded and smiled with satisfaction.

Though each of his students had different personalities—some playful, some mischievous, others irritable, and some gentle and obedient—they were, in the end, all a group of well-behaved children.

At least in the two years An Chen had been teaching, none of his students had ever gone against his words.

This alone was enough to put An Chen at ease.

"Teacher."

Suddenly, a pleasant voice echoed in the classroom, "I have a question I don't understand. Could you please enlighten me?"

An Chen immediately recognized the voice. It belonged to a female student named Yang Meili.

He had a deep impression of this student.

She was methodical in her actions, had a gentle voice, loved reading, and was often seen with a book in hand.

At times, An Chen would even get the illusion that she resembled a graceful, beautiful, and intellectual older sister from the neighborhood.

An Chen shook his head, tossing these stray thoughts aside, and smiled as he said, "Go ahead, tell me what your question is."

The other great demons all turned their heads, and the image of the white goat was reflected in their wide pupils.

The white goat sat upright with a straight back, first adjusting the frame of her glasses before lowering the right hand she had just raised. Then, she began to express the question that had arisen in her heart.

"Teacher, my question is this: If you don't allow us to learn external cultivation methods, how can we grow stronger?"

Upon hearing this, the great demons instinctively widened their eyes, revealing a thoughtful expression.

It was clear that this question hit home, as it was something they too wanted to know.

Since they had already embarked on the path of cultivation, they wanted to follow it all the way to its ultimate end.

However, the great demons currently felt confused and lost about their cultivation. They didn't know what lay ahead or how they should proceed in their training.

'How will the teacher answer this?' 

For a moment, all the great demons looked up at An Chen, their eyes flickering with curiosity, anticipation, and even a bit of excitement.

After all, in the past two years, they had quietly studied, awakened their intelligence, and gleaned cultivation knowledge from the lessons the teacher had taught.

They hadn't had many chances to directly ask the teacher about cultivation.

Now, thanks to the matter of the cube, they finally had the opportunity to ask the question that had been on their minds. Naturally, this made them extremely excited!

When An Chen heard Xiao Mei's question, he was momentarily taken aback but then smiled knowingly. He understood that his students wanted to become powerful as quickly as possible.

After thinking for a moment, An Chen gave his answer.

His voice was firm and resonated throughout the classroom, immediately giving the great demons a feeling of sudden enlightenment.

"Students, our Dragon Kingdom is vast, rich in resources, and filled with endless mysteries. It also boasts a civilization spanning thousands of years, making it an inexhaustible treasure trove!

So, if you wish to become stronger, why would you need to seek power from the outside? Just search within yourselves!"

Search within???

All the great demons were visibly shaken!

They felt that this statement was like a guiding light, beginning to dispel the fog on their path to cultivation, and it made them all fall into deep thought.

A moment later, Xiao Qing quickly raised her head, her eyes bright as she looked at the teacher. Her eyes sparkled with excitement, astonishment, and joy, as if a brand-new world had opened its doors to her, revealing the path of cultivation ahead.

Xiao Qing had an intense feeling, a strong premonition, that the answer to this question would lead them down a bright road in the future!

She tried hard to contain her emotions, but her voice still trembled slightly.

"So... may I ask, Teacher, how do we search within ourselves?"
