Killing God - Chapter 299

Chapter 299 Talent
In the quiet room, Shen Shi sat cross-legged on the bed with a piece of yellow paper in front of him. He looked calm, but his heart was not calm. Because just now, what he saw on this yellow paper was indeed a five-element spell, but it was a strange spell that he had never heard of.

Water repellency.

Although Shen Shi had always maintained a low-key and cautious temperament, deep down in his heart, he was actually quite confident in his knowledge of spirit materials and the Five Elements Technique. Even though his cultivation level might not be high for the time being, he still trusted him very much.

However, this technique that appeared in front of him, from its name to its cultivation technique, was extremely strange. It was something he had never heard of before. In other words, after he had obtained most of the books he was interested in with his father’s help and his passion for reading since he was a child, the strange name “Water Rejection Technique” he saw at this moment should not have been recorded in most of the relevant books in the world.

A Five Elements Technique that was barely known in the world?

Could it be that this was the foundation of the Ling Xiao Sect, which was ranked one of the four main sects? Or could it be that the 10,000-year-old Golden Rainbow Mountain Sect was actually much taller than he had imagined?

The curiosity in Shen Shi’s heart was stirred, and he was even slightly excited. He felt as if a door leading to a mysterious, unknown, but surely very vast new world had faintly opened up a crack in front of him. He began to carefully read the spells, carefully meditate on them, and unknowingly immersed himself in them.

But after reading through the entire incantation and pondering for a while, Shen Shi frowned slightly. This water repelling spell was indeed a very strange spell. Basically, it did not have any ability to attack or defend. The only effect of this spell was that when a cultivator dived into the water, it would create a thin space around his body that was only one finger wide, blocking out all the surrounding water.

In other words, Water Rejection Technique was actually an auxiliary technique similar to the Second Grade [Wind Riding Technique] he had cultivated before, The greatest use seemed to be to allow cultivators to stay underwater for a longer period of time, In addition, Shen Shi could even imagine that in such a situation where there were layers of thick water around him, he couldn’t even move freely. Not to mention the fact that the spell clearly stated that the water repellency gap created by this spell required cultivators to constantly consume spiritual energy to maintain it. Moreover, the deeper they dived into the water, the greater the pressure, the greater the consumption of spiritual energy.

From the looks of it, Shen Shi couldn’t help but feel slightly disappointed in his heart. If he needed to dive into the water to find something, he could basically do it as long as he was able to communicate with the water. Why would he use such a useless spell? Yet, this seemingly useless spell was actually ranked high in the Third Grade. Could it be that Elder Pu of the Arts Hall, who had only heard of him and had never seen him before, had used it to perfunctorily deal with him?

He thought about it for a while, and his mood was somewhat depressed. However, he also laughed out loud. He thought that he really couldn’t escape from the mortal world. All he thought about was the good news of the pie falling from the sky. It was only natural for the Hall of Arts to deal with a nameless junior like him like this.

With that in mind, His heart calmed down a lot, However, there was still some helplessness in his heart. Some wanted to leave, However, when he thought about it, he remembered that Senior Sister Xu Yanzhi was busy running for him just now. It was too ugly to leave just like that. After pondering for a moment, Shen Shi decided to try to cultivate in this quiet room. Regardless of whether he could cultivate or not, it was useless even if he had cultivated it, let alone giving him such a short time to comprehend it.

He made up his mind, He quickly removed the distractions, Once again concentrating on this water repelling spell, ordinary cultivators might have a headache for this difficult and complicated Five Elements spell. However, to cultivators who were truly interested, what seemed dull to outsiders was an additional feeling that was difficult for ordinary people to understand. Every time they solved a difficult problem and realized a little doubt, they would be overjoyed and delighted.

Shen Shi was such a rare person who was very interested in the Five Elements Technique. Therefore, although he wasn’t particularly interested in the Water Rejection Technique before, after he began to comprehend it, he unknowingly immersed himself in it.

He didn’t listen to anything outside the window and only comprehended the methods of his ancestors.

In the silent room, time seemed to have frozen as it quietly flowed away bit by bit. Outside the quiet room, however, everything in this world would not stop for a moment because of anyone or anything, and they would continue to walk without stop.

Old Man Pu left the secret room at some unknown time. He walked to the Five Elements Hall with a wine gourd in his hand. Xu Yanzhi and Zhong Qingzhu, who were still talking at the entrance of the hall, saw his figure and hurriedly came over to greet him. Zhong Qingzhu’s eyes were filled with anxiety and anticipation. However, Old Man Pu’s expression was faint. He waved his hand and sent them off, He then looked at Qing Tian outside the hall and thought for a while. He seemed to be a little distracted. Then, he turned back to the hall and didn’t care about the image of his Grand Elder. He casually found a thick pillar in the hall and sat on the ground. He raised his head and drank a large mouthful of wine. He closed his eyes. He didn’t know if he was enjoying the wine or waiting for something calmly.

In the Lingxiao Sect Pill Hall, the pill conference that had attracted the most attention in recent days had finally set a date. Elder Yun Ni personally presided over it, and the date was two days later. At the same time, Unexpectedly, Elder Pu Siyi of the Academy joined the new Council of Elders to replace Elder Shutang Mu as one of the five great elders. After the discussion, there was also news about the selection of the elite disciples of the sect at the Four Main Assembly next year. This pill gathering was undoubtedly the beginning of this great event that attracted the attention of everyone, and it attracted countless people’s attention.

Even in Floating Cloud City, thousands of miles away, many factions including a large number of vassal clans were in a commotion. Who didn’t know that once they were selected as elite disciples, their status in the Lingxiao Sect Sect would definitely rise to a higher level, let alone the chance to enter the famous Yuanshi Sect in Wentian Secret Realm in the future? It was said that it was a mysterious realm personally opened by Yuan Wentian, the leader of the six saints of the human race. Legend has it that the secret realm was filled with countless immortal treasures and countless immortal destinies that shook the heavens and earth. Only those who were destined to discover it would be able to obtain immortal destinies from the four great sects in Wentian Secret Realm over the years.

If his nephew could do this, To oneself, to aristocratic families, It was an immeasurable benefit, Hence, during this period of time, Floating Cloud City seemed to be calm on the surface, but in private, there had long been a surge of undercurrents. Countless precious spirit materials, rare spirit pills, rushed towards Golden Rainbow Mountain as if they didn’t want money. The purpose was to fight for even a tiny bit of advantage in Lingxiao Sect, where elites were gathered in large numbers.

Some people are busy running, some people are bored, lonely waiting.

In the room on the second floor of An Shan Inn, Ling Chunni still kept her promise and stayed in the room. She watched the sun rise and set, reclining on her lone pillow and falling asleep.

However, there was no need to be sad, and there was still hope in his heart.

Occasionally, when she sat alone and thought about it, she would suddenly chuckle softly. Her laughter was gentle and filled with longing. At this time, a little black pig would often come out from the side. After looking around for a while and discovering that no one was there, she moved closer to her.

Ling Chunni touched its head. Little Black’s ears were obedient and his eyes were slightly closed. He looked very comfortable. The woman smiled and asked it, “Little Black, why hasn’t he returned yet?”

Little Black snorted twice and looked up at the sky. He also looked dissatisfied and seemed to be disdainful. It was more like saying that that fellow was very unreliable. I had seen through everything long ago, Little Pig.

Ling Chunni seemed to understand what it meant. He laughed and lightly patted his pig head. He smiled and said, “Alright, he will come. Perhaps something has delayed him.”

Little Black muttered twice, nodded, and rubbed his head against her hand a few more times, looking very comfortable. However, she accidentally looked up and saw Ling Chunni staring out of the window again. She looked at the green buds on the branch and was stunned. Her eyebrows were filled with faint farewell worries.

Little Hei thought for a moment, He looked hesitant, He carefully looked around. After confirming that there was no one around, he suddenly shook his head and a white jade-like tuber of spiritual herbs appeared in front of him. However, he saw that half of the original palm-sized, warm, round, jade-like object was missing. There were many holes on it, and it was obvious that Little Hei had been licking it all along.

Little Hei chuckled and picked up the lunar plate with his mouth. He looked reluctant and sent it to Ling Chunni’s mouth.

As Ling Chunni was deep in thought, she was startled by Xiao Hei. In the blink of an eye, she glanced at the moon and was stunned for a moment. Then, she understood Xiao Hei’s intentions. Seeing that it looked like it wanted to treat Xiao Hei to dinner, she couldn’t help but laugh. She touched Xiao Hei’s head and said, “Alright, what is this? I don’t want it. You can eat it yourself.”

Little Hei was stunned for a moment. He looked at Ling Chunni with puzzlement. He rolled his eyes, lowered his head and snorted twice. Then, he jumped to the ground and ran to the side with the moon plate in his mouth. He licked it a few times, then carefully took a small bite and chewed it in his mouth. A moment later, he let out a satisfied sigh.

This woman is so stupid!

Xiao Hei chewed on the moon disk fragment, thinking like this in his heart.

The Five Elements Technique was difficult to cultivate, Shen Shi was naturally mentally prepared for this. The numerous cultivation experiences of countless ancestors had already proved this point. That was, after he had obtained the Yin Yang Curse Secret Book, because of the support of the mysterious curse text, he seemed to be able to comprehend the Five Elements Spell faster than ordinary people. It was easier and faster to cast spells, and it was also more powerful.

Water Rejection was a Tier 3 spell, Naturally, it was much harder than a Tier 2 spell, However, after Shen Shi concentrated on cultivating this technique, Although he didn’t have any distractions, he could vaguely sense that this technique seemed to be slightly different from the usual Five Elements Technique. Perhaps it was because it didn’t have any offensive and defensive effects, so it was much easier for him to comprehend and cultivate this technique than he had imagined.

That kind of feeling was very strange, but even Shen Shi wasn’t very clear about it. If he really said it, it would be a bit like this water repelling technique that didn’t know which of the five elements, wood, water, fire, and earth, belonged to. Moreover, there was indeed no clear ownership of this technique in the spell characters.

A Five Elements Technique that did not belong to any of the Five Elements?

Even Shen Shi felt that this thought was funny.

Therefore, Shen Shi quickly abandoned these pointless distractions. He was still concentrating on comprehending this spell. On the contrary, after experiencing these doubts, his interest in this spell increased greatly. The Yin Yang Curse within his body did not seem to have some strange characteristics that made it ineffective against the water repelling spell. It was still very normal for him to secretly assist Shen Shi in comprehending and cultivating this spell.

Time passed quietly. When Shen Shi suddenly came to an epiphany, he jumped up. It was unknown how many times had passed. Whether the time was short or long, he had forgotten all about it.

He was delighted, He opened the door of the quiet room and strode out. Just as he was about to look for Senior Sister Xu Yanzhi, he suddenly saw an old man with a goatee sitting under a stone pillar. He held a wine gourd and drank a mouthful of wine. He looked at himself indifferently. His eyes gradually lit up, and the corner of his mouth seemed to have a faint smile.

“Good boy, you actually only used one day and one night …”
