The Clan Master Can't possibly Be A Mortal - Chapter 247:

Chapter 247: Chapter 247: Shuiyang Secret Art and Mystique Catalogue, Proposal Visit

Ye Feng first opened the title page of the auxiliary cultivation method “”Water Radiance Technique”.”

The introduction to this cultivation technique was written there.

“This technique has three layers, and after practicing it, one can transform his own strength into the power of ‘water’ and ‘fire,’ merging them together, amplifying the effects of any spells or secret techniques used.”

“Achieving perfection in the first layer, the amplification effect is thirty percent.”

“Achieving perfection in the second layer, the amplification effect is fifty percent.”

“Achieving perfection in the third layer, the amplification effect is one hundred percent.”

This was all that was recorded on the title page.

The crowd quickly finished reading the introduction.

“So it’s an auxiliary cultivation technique that can enhance one’s combat power. Reaching perfection in the third layer could double the strength. This is indeed excellent!”

Ye Feng gave a thumbs-up, feeling that this technique absolutely belonged to the category of fine quality.

With the auxiliary cultivation method “”Second Qi Sea”” improving endurance, and now the “”Water Radiance Technique”” enhancing combat ability, the disciples of Misty Sect would only become stronger.

In addition, there was the yet-to-be widely taught “”Nine Revolutions Heavenly God Technique”,” which could cultivate Divine Sense Power, perfect for immobilizing enemies at critical moments and ideal for surprise attacks.

Of course, a person’s energy is limited.

It would be quite difficult to practice these three auxiliary cultivation methods at the same time, but Ye Feng had already mastered them to the Perfect Stage. With his personal guidance, the disciples would find it much easier to practice.

“This ‘”Water Radiance Technique”‘ is a closely guarded secret of our Shuiyang City, but Sect Master Ye has avenged us. From today forward, the ‘”Water Radiance Technique”‘ belongs to Misty Sect,” Gong Qingqiu said, pointing to the ancient book. “However, this auxiliary cultivation method is quite difficult to practice. Even I have only achieved perfection in the first layer.”

“Even Elder Gong has only practiced to the first layer. Is it really that difficult?” The disciples were surprised.

“Let me try,” said Ji Ziling, the disciple with the highest talent, as she opened the “”Water Radiance Technique”” and read the beginning verses.

“Between heaven and earth, divide Yin and Yang, transform into water and fire. Refining a breath of water and fire power can supplement one another as the origin, amplifying one’s own variety of spells…”

Ji Ziling quietly read, while comprehending.

Soon, she sat cross-legged on the ground, beginning to practice.

Gong Qingqiu approached Ye Feng and whispered, “Sect Master, how is Ziling’s talent?”

“Not bad, supreme grade root bone,” Ye Feng said.

“Oh, not bad… What! Supreme grade?” Gong Qingqiu was initially stunned, then taken aback.

That was a supreme grade root bone! How could there be so few in the entire Southern River Basin, yet to Sect Master Ye, it seemed merely satisfactory?

On the cushion.

There was a change in Ji Ziling’s aura.

Five types of spiritual energies began to collide, the “water” and “fire” separating, gradually transforming into two pure forces.

“As expected of a supreme grade root bone, her comprehension is truly against the heavens!”

Gong Qingqiu couldn’t help but praise.

Her talent was considered decent, but she had worked hard for a long time and, with the guidance of her elder brother and various elders, was able to successfully practice to the first layer.

If it hadn’t been for the attack by the Three-tailed Fox Clan, she definitely would have had enough time to practice to the second layer.

As for the highest third layer, it was not that easy to achieve.

There were many obscure issues, and no matter how she thought, she was unable to solve them.

“Ding, comprehension of the complete version of ‘”Water Radiance Technique”‘ obtained.”

As Ji Ziling practiced the first layer to Beginner, Ye Feng immediately heard a notification from the system.

Logically speaking, when Gong Qingqiu joined Misty Sect, he should have mastered the “”Water Radiance Technique”.” However, this time, it seemed that the disciples needed to practice it to Beginner level for it to count; apparently, only when the disciples gained comprehension did it count.

Thinking this, Ye Feng took a pen and began writing and drawing on a piece of paper.

Gong Qingqiu curiously glanced over, her pupils shrinking rapidly, covering her mouth with a soft hand in surprise, “These are insights into the ‘”Water Radiance Technique”,’ and the details mentioned are so thorough. If I practice according to this, I will definitely be able to enter the third layer!”

She looked at Ye Feng, her surprise gradually turning into admiration.

She had thought that Ye Feng had only defeated the Demon King by relying on external forces and was not adept at cultivation. Yet, with just a few strokes of his pen, he produced top-level insights.

“What kind of expert is this!”

Gong Qingqiu’s breathing became rapid, and the proud curves on her body also undulated continuously.

Ten minutes later.

Ji Ziling opened her eyes.

“This auxiliary cultivation method is indeed difficult to practice. It’s been so long, and I’m still stuck at the Beginner stage, unable to enter Minor Achievement,” she muttered.

Nearby, Gong Qingqiu felt as if she had been struck by an arrow.

Less than a quarter of an hour to practice to Beginner and still she found it slow? It took me a whole day to reach Beginner!

Thinking this, she almost cried.

“Since you’re stuck at the Beginner stage, take a look at these insights I’ve written. If there are any questions you don’t understand, you can ask me,” Ye Feng had just finished writing his insights, folding the paper and placing it inside the “”Water Radiance Technique”” as a supplement.

“As expected of Sect Master Uncle, such quick completion of all the annotations,” Wang Ping’an offered a compliment.

Finally, not called “Master,” Ye Feng was quite pleased.

“Next, let’s check out this incomplete Fourth Grade Spell ‘”Mystical Spirit Catalogue”,’” Ye Feng opened the second ancient book.

“It’s a pity it’s incomplete,” Wang Ping’an muttered.

Eldest Senior Brother Shi Lei smiled and said, “Junior Brother Wang, you don’t understand. Sect Master Uncle’s comprehension is extraordinary; he can complete the missing parts of the spell.”

Wang Ping’an exclaimed, “Really?”

Gong Qingqiu frowned slightly, thinking it impossible.

That was an incomplete Fourth Grade Spell. Even a Spirit Sea Realm cultivator might not be able to restore it. At least one would need to achieve the Divine Origin Realm and consolidate Divine Sense to deduce it.

Ye Feng was not of Divine Origin Realm, how could he manage?

“Hmm, restoring it is indeed not a problem,” Ye Feng calmly said with an even expression.

[Sect Prestige Value: 239857]

[Remaining Redeemable Amount: 238,557]

This is the current Prestige Value of the Sect.

“Sigh, it’s time to flex my financial muscle and revel in the joy of having an advantage!” Ye Feng pretended to flip through the “Mystical Spirit Catalogue”, reading intently.

In secret, however…

“Ding, 1,000 Prestige Points deducted. Congratulations on mastering the complete version of the Fourth Grade Spell “Mystical Spirit Catalogue”. Wishing you a pleasant life!”

[Remaining Redeemable Amount: 237,560]

With the expenditure of a thousand Prestige Points, Ye Feng’s mind was filled with vast knowledge, as countless strands wove together in the sea of his understanding, continuing to sprout and flourish.

This feeling was very wonderful.

“Actually, this spell isn’t that difficult.”

Ye Feng placed the ancient book on the table, took out some paper and a brush, and continued to write and draw, while Gong Qingqiu and the disciples gathered around, watching seriously.

Having practiced this spell herself, Gong Qingqiu quickly identified the parts that had been completed and was once again deeply shocked.

“So this is what follows in the “Mystical Spirit Catalogue”. No wonder I could never reach Perfection with my practice before.” Gong Qingqiu felt as if she had an epiphany.

In less than a quarter of an hour, Ye Feng had completed and placed the “Mystical Spirit Catalogue” on the table, looking at the others, he said:

“This Fourth Grade Spell is quite good; it has a mix of attack, defense, and entrapment, making it an extremely strong spell. Except for Jia Xi, everyone else needs to master it.”

Wang Ping’an jumped out and asked, “Sect Master Uncle, what’s so impressive about this spell?”

“Elder Gong, please demonstrate it for the disciples.”

“Yes.”

Gong Qingqiu walked near the Thousand-Year Ancient Pine Tree and stood quietly, letting the breeze at the peak flutter her clothes and hair.

“The essence of the Mystical lies in the profound. I have a catalogue that can suppress demons, confine fiends, kill enemies… Mystical Spirit Catalogue, condense!”

She began forming hand signs.

Since it was a demonstration, Gong Qingqiu chanted the complete incantation.

In combat, the incantation could be simplified to just one word “condense,” skipping many steps and making the response even quicker.

Whoosh!

A strong wind swept around Gong Qingqiu, as myriad colors gathered behind her, forming a colorful scroll one meter above the ground, three meters long and one meter high.

A peculiar aura of space emanated from it, giving a sense of profound mystery. The surface of the scroll shimmered with countless intricate patterns, illuminating the surroundings.

“Nice, very flashy!”

Ye Feng praised.

The disciples also showed their astonishment, their eyes filled with desire, all wanting to learn this spell.

“This spell can conjure a painting scroll, with the main body being a landscape painting that can unleash water swords and wooden vines, and can also draw cultivators into the painting, temporarily trapping them.”

Gong Qingqiu began to explain in detail.

Ye Feng glanced at the Thousand-Year Ancient Pine and said, “Lao Song, have the Armored Guardians attack Elder Gong to test the actual power of this spell.”

“Yes.”

Nine pinecones fell from Lao Song, and in the instant they touched the ground, they burst open, transforming into nine armored guardians wielding spirit shields and short blades, attacking from all directions. Their momentum melded into one, giving off the oppressive feeling of facing cultivators in the Element Gathering Realm.

Drip, drip!

Clang!

First, the sound of dripping water came from the scroll, followed by the humming of swords. With a whoosh, five sharp swords streaked out from within the scroll, instantly slicing five of the armored guardians in half.

“It’s very powerful!” Mo Ying murmured.

Each water sword was extremely sharp; even her full-strength strike would be utterly unable to withstand any of them.

Rip!

The remaining armored guardians immediately swung their blades at Gong Qingqiu.

But the scroll suddenly shook, and waves surged from it, forming a hemispherical transparent shield in midair, blocking the blades of the guardians.

Subsequently, green vines extended from the scroll, entwining the remaining four armored guardians and pulling them into the scroll.

With that, Gong Qingqiu finished her demonstration.

She left the scroll suspended in midair and walked up to Ye Feng, addressing everyone, “The world within the “Mystical Spirit Catalogue” can draw anyone inside, but the stronger one is, the easier they break free. If you encounter an overwhelmingly powerful enemy, you can try to pull them into the painting as a chance to escape.”

“So that’s how it’s used!” the disciples exclaimed in realization.

Qiao Jiaxi, who did not know spells, could only watch helplessly. Pointing at the scroll in midair, she asked, “Elder, what if one doesn’t have enough strength to break the scroll?”

Gong Qingqiu smiled lightly and explained, “The power of the scroll comes from the cultivator herself. If the caster stops infusing power into the scroll, sooner or later those inside will break out. Of course, the stronger they are, the quicker they’ll escape.”

“Oh, I see. Thanks for the explanation, Elder.” Qiao Jiaxi bowed as a gesture of thanks.

At that moment, Ye Feng coughed lightly and said, “Alright, now that you all know the wondrous uses of this spell, start practicing it from today.”

“Yes.”

The disciples responded in unison, consulting Gong Qingqiu about the key points of practicing this spell. Whenever they encountered something unclear, Gong Qingqiu would discuss it with them.

During this time, Gong Qingqiu also took the opportunity to learn the complete version of the “Mystical Spirit Catalogue” filled in by Ye Feng, aiming to achieve Perfection as soon as possible.

Atop the Scripture Pavilion.

Ye Feng looked down from above.

The disciples sat around Gong Qingqiu, studiously learning. As an Outer Sect Elder, Gong Qingqiu was very conscientious, sharing everything she knew.

Ye Feng was quite satisfied with this.

“Finally, I can be a hands-off manager.”

Ye Feng looked relaxed as his gaze shifted to Whitefloat City, “Speaking of which, Gong Qingqiu was once the Deputy City Lord of Shuiyang City. Now that the old City Lord of Whitefloat City has lost his cultivation and can no longer serve, maybe…”

“Master Ye!”

A booming voice rose from afar, spreading across dozens of miles like thunder, causing everyone around to look up.

In the sky.

Alliance Leader Mo Tianlong, Young Alliance Leader Mo Minxi, the Great Elder Blue Dragon King, and the ten high-ranking Element Gathering Realm Elders of the Myriad Islands Alliance arrived side by side, most of them wearing smiles on their faces.

“Why have they come?”

Ye Feng looked at Mo Tianlong and his entourage, his mind filled with curiosity.
