“Above all, these are the key points you need to pay attention to when applying the Capturing Fire Secret Technique.”
In the Refining Fire Hall, Lu Dong stood with his arms folded, looking at Qin Lang calmly.
“Thankyou for your guidance,” Qin Lang said gratefully.
Although Dan Bao, with his extraordinary talent, had quickly comprehended the full version of the Capturing Fire Secret Technique, thus nullifying the special guidance that was supposed to be a reward, Mr. Lu Dong had generously pointed out the key points of the technique.
To Dan Bao, who had just begun mastering the method, this would undoubtedly help speed up his familiarity with this unique secret technique.
“Gulu!”
Thankyou!
Dan Bao’s egg yolk-like face was filled with joy. At its side, flames rhythmically circled around it. The intense heat, unbearable to ordinary people, was quietly absorbed by it, transforming into a ceaseless source of power.
“Chuck…”
So envious…
With a covetous look, Spicy, who had been summoned after the test’s conclusion, watched Dan Bao demonstrating the technique, her eyes full of envy.
After much effort, it had finally comprehended the Combined Battle Skills to keep up with with Dan Bao. Unexpectedly, Dan Bao had mastered a special secret technique again, leaving it behind once more.
I wonder, can I too master such a method?
In her contemplation, Spicy’s face filled with anticipation.
Seeing the thoughts on his Food Spirit, Qin Lang hesitated slightly, then looked at Lu Dong and asked, “Mr. Lu Dong, I’d like to ask a question.”
“Go ahead,” Lu Dong nodded slightly, prompting him to ask freely.
“How many special secret techniques like the Capturing Fire, can Food Spirits control?”
“So that’s what you’re curious about.” Lu Dong revealed a knowing smile, “There aren’t many such techniques, at least not one for every person.”
The light in Spicy’s eyes slightly dimmed.
No suitable secret techniques for me…
“But!”
With a change in tone, Mr. Lu Dong inspired renewed hope in Spicy.
“For a Spirit Chef on the training path, you are bound to come across secret techniques.”
“What do you mean?” Qin Lang asked with a puzzled look.
Lu Dong didn’t answer immediately, instead asking in response, “Do you think Food Spirit’s combat skills are good enough in a fight?”
“Not enough.” Qin Lang shook his head decisively.
Even with two combat skills, Dan Bao and Spicy often faced various difficult situations during battles.
“Correct! Food Spirit’s combat skills are often not enough during a fight,” Mr. Lu Dong nodded slightly, “Your two-star Food Spirits, let alone those who are five-star or above, still greatly lack the richness of combat diversity.”
“There are three ways to solve this problem.”
“Which three?” Qin Lang perked his ear, eagerly awaiting the answer.
This was some real knowledge.
“Firstly, there are Skill Stones,” Lu Dong paused for a bit, “Using Skill Stones to guide the awakening of combat skills doesn’t necessarily increase the quantity of skills, but it can improve the combination of existing skills.”
“That’s true,” Qin Lang agreed, nodding his head.
This point was obvious to him. He had already tasted the sweetness of using Skill Stones.
“Next are combined combat skills.” Lu Dong smiled, “Though combat skills are few, their combination, or even more, still offer a considerable number.”
“By comprehending combined combat skills, not only can one have entirely new skills, but also the newly-born combined skills will be more potent than ordinary combat skills.”
Qin Lang nodded again.
About this part- combined combat skills, Zhou Tianhao had given him many pointers. In the previous combat training, he had witnessed many combined skills mastered by Zhou Tianhao’s four Food Spirits.
“So, the last one is secret technique?” Qin Lang curiously inquired.
“Correct,” Lu Dong nodded lightly, “Secret technique is another method to compensate for the weaknesses of Food Spirit’s combat skills and predates combined battle skills.”
“In the past, Spirit Chefs had not yet discovered the real mystery of combat skills, and combined combat skills had not been proposed.”
“To let Food Spirits possess a more diverse power system, the pioneering Spirit Chefs created secret techniques that could be learned and mastered by Food Spirits.”
“Regrettably, with the advent of combined combat skills, the status of secret techniques gradually diminished, and slowly they fell out of mainstream practice.”
“Why did this happen?” Qin Lang couldn’t help but wonder, “Are there any conflicts between combined combat skills and secret techniques?”
“No, not at all.” Lu Dong shook his head, “But both require time and energy to comprehend and a Spirit Chef’s and Food Spirit’s energy is limited, so some choices need to be made.”
“Compared with combined combat skills, secret techniques have many more downsides. So if the choice has to be made between the two, most would naturally choose combined combat skills.”
Lu Dong sighed helplessly.
“Unlike combat skills, secret techniques have learning constraints.”
“For example, our Lu family’s Capturing Fire Secret Technique requires one to have at least one flame-based nature combat skill to master it.”
“So for a Spirit Chef, it’s not easy to find secret techniques suitable for their Food Spirits.”
“Compared to this, one can master combined combat skills with some understanding of the intrinsic nature of the combat skills, achieved merely through hard work.”
“On the other hand, most secret techniques don’t serve a role that is as comparable as combat skills in a fight. However, combined combat skills are a more powerful force than ordinary combat skills.”
“Take the Capturing Fire Secret Technique for example, its greatest use is to enhance the capabilities in high-heat battlegrounds without many other uses.”
“I see.” Qin Lang nodded in understanding.
Having heard Mr. Lu Dong’s analysis, Qin Lang now had a clear understanding of the similarities and differences between combat skills, combined battle skills, and secret techniques.
“Back to your question.” Lu Dong chuckled, “Although secret techniques are gradually being replaced by combined battle skills, they are not entirely lost. Many families like our Lu Family possess them and are willing to teach them to promising Spirit Chefs.”
“If you’re interested in this, pay more attention, there should be gains.”
“Thankyou for your guidance!” Qin Lang bowed respectfully.
“You’re welcome.” Lu Dong laughed, “It’s getting late now, let’s go up together. It’s quite hot in here!”
Saying that, he casually wiped the sweat off his body.
Even though he had guarded this sealed active volcano for many years, Mr. Lu Dong was still not entirely immune to the high temperatures of this area.
“Yes!” Qin Lang nodded, following close behind Mr. Lu Dong, one step at a time, following the stairway upwards.
Spicy circled around Qin Lang and then rubbed his cheeks with its head.
“Chuck buzz!”
I also want to learn a secret technique!
“Alright, alright,” Qin Lang pulled her away with a smile, “We’ll pay more attention from now on, there should be gains.”
Even though Mr. Lu Dong said that both combined combat skills and secret techniques require a lot of energy and choice has to be made, from the way Dan Bao comprehended it, he insisted that mastering one or two shouldn’t affect much as long as they don’t get too greedy.
Upon receiving a positive response from Qin Lang, an expectant look flashed across Spicy’s face.
New goal, secret technique!
