The White Ape always thought of himself as just an ordinary monkey, but Ning Qi told him that he couldnāt become an Exotic Beast because his bloodline was too powerful to awaken.
This made him hopeful and even more eager for the day his bloodline could awaken.
Recently, the True Martial Sect had been under constant attack. He watched anxiously, but there was nothing he could do; although he was cultivating quickly, he was still only at the Body Tempering Realm. In such matters, he couldnāt help muchāat best, he could assist in surveillance.
But now.
He finally had a way to become stronger quickly.
As long as his bloodline awakened, his power would surely soar, and then he could become stronger by continually tapping into his bloodline. Combined with the Martial Arts taught by Ning Qi, his growth would be much faster than that of a typical Exotic Beast.
"Please, Master, teach me!"
The White Ape bowed respectfully.
He always admired and felt grateful to Ning Qi. If Ning Qi hadnāt brought him back, he would still be just an ordinary white ape in the mountains, perhaps only a bit more intelligent than other beasts.
Ning Qi smiled slightly and began to explain.
"The so-called true form of the Ape King starts from the heart, visualizing the Ape King, condensing the body, and connecting the Divine Thought..."
The White Ape sat cross-legged.
Listening to Ning Qiās slowlecture, he was completely absorbed, feeling as if a gateway to a new world was opening slowly.
The mysteries between the physical body and the mind unfolded before him.
Ning Qiās voice had stopped, but the White Ape didnāt notice and remained in his cross-legged, eyes-closed posture, his mind full of the Secret Technique just explained.
After a long while.
The White Ape finally awoke from his obsessed state.
His eyes were full of admiration, and he looked at Ning Qi as if he were looking at a Heavenly God.
"The student thanks the teacher for granting the technique!"
Ning Qi merely nodded with a smile, encouraging:
"With your talent, if you work diligently, youāll likely see results in two months."
After saying that, he walked away with his hands behind his back.
Currently, Ning Qi was already seven years old, resembling a young lad. Walking with his hands behind his back looked a bit amusing, but in the White Apeās heart, it felt deeply profound.
The White Apeās greatest desire was to one day gain Ning Qiās true recognition and become his disciple.
Others didnāt know the power of Ning Qi, but the White Ape was with Ning Qi day and night, naturally understanding somewhat. He felt that if he wanted to become an Inner Disciple of such an unparalleled master as his teacher, he must work doubly hard.
Otherwise, even if Ning Qi agreed, he wouldnāt have the face for it.
"The student will definitely work doubly hard!" The White Apeās eyes were firmly determined.
...
After transmitting the technique.
Ning Qi didnāt stop his pace. Although the true form of the Ape King was a Secret Technique tailored for the White Ape, it could also be adapted for his own use. Ning Qi continued to compare the differences between his own body and the White Apeās body.
As long as he grasped the principle, he could easily apply it to himself.
While steadily advancing toward the Ninefold Realm, Ning Qi was also constantly accumulating. Creation Technique was something he engaged in daily, and to this day, he had created countless Martial Arts Secret Techniques, some placed in the Scripture Pavilion, while others were not yet recorded.
One night.
Ning Qi stood in the forest, his Perception zoomed to the limit.
After ensuring no one was around, he began his actions.
His originally short stature swelled like an inflation, and within a blink, exceeded two meters, continuing to expand at an astonishing rate. Finally, he stopped at over a fathom in height.
Like a little giant!
If not for the Taoist Robe being of extremely special material, it would have been utterly torn apart. Even so, it was tightly fitted against his swollen body, looking somewhat odd.
But Ning Qiās focus was not on this.
He was feeling the power within himself.
At this moment, he casually moved, burst a boulder and hurled it out, smashing into the mountain to create ferocious pits, or uprooting gigantic trees with easeāthe exhilarating discharge of power made him almost want to let out a long howl.
But he restrained himself.
Though this place was somewhat far from the True Martial Sectās mountain gate, it wasnāt good to cause too much commotion and draw everyoneās attention.
Ning Qiās eyes showed a hint of oddity.
"Such powerful strength, at least five times stronger!"
Itās somewhat exaggerated.
You must know, Ning Qiās own physical strength was already extremely formidable, now in this special state, his body was five times stronger, and a punch could easily shatter the White Mist Realm.
This was exactly the result of these recent days for Ning Qi.
Although it was the true form of the Ape King, he had seamlessly integrated the Body Shifting and Bone Changing technique, optimizing it for himself greatly.
After experimenting for a while, Ning Qi slowly returned to his original form.
"What a pity that the state of the true form of the Ape King can only strengthen the physical body; if my Inner Strength could also become five times stronger, wouldnāt I be able to contend with the Primordial Core Realm?"
"However, this can be a direction for future efforts, striving to further enhance the Secret Technique of the true form of the Ape King."
"One day, reaching the level of Heaven and Earth, that would be a true Divine Technique!"
Ning Qi felt some anticipation.
In some myths of his previous life, immortals revealed their Dharma Aspect when debating, infinitely tall and far, containing boundless power. Perhaps one day he too could achieve this.
The White Ape was the best subject for observation.
Letting the White Ape cultivate the true form of the Ape King, then receiving feedback from the bloodline might bring unexpected changes to this Secret Technique.
Next.
Ning Qi allowed the White Ape to cultivate independently, though he eagerly awaited the day the White Ape would succeed, he wouldnāt press too much, letting everything follow its course.
