Chapter 206: Chapter 30: Wu Monkey King Crossing Tribulation! (Major Chapter 5OOO)_2

“If you’re in the middle stage, with these spirit beasts, junior brother should be able to face off against the majority of mediocre rogue cultivators.”

“However, when you reach the late stage of Foundation Establishment, even if it’s a rogue cultivator, junior brother should be extremely cautious. This realm, the weak are very weak, the strong are extremely strong. Even though I now consider myself to have reached the limit of the Foundation Establishment realm, when encountering a strange late-stage cultivator of Foundation Establishment, I cannot confidently say that I would win.”

Hearing Zhao Feng’s explanation and admonition, Wang Ba nodded slightly after a moment of realization, indicating that he kept it in mind.

However, he still felt a little confused inside.

All along, being in a place swarming with high-class cultivators like the Tianmen Cult, plus focusing solely on increasing his cultivation base, he had practically never personally fought anyone. So, he always thought of himself as too weak, completely avoiding confrontation with cultivators of the same level.

He never imagined that he now, in the realm of Foundation Establishment, would unknowingly be considered a minor expert.

Even a mid-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator unexpectedly died under his hands.

This made him somewhat delighted in his bewilderment.

“However, junior brother, you mustn’t let your guard down. There are quite a few points in your fight against your opponent that are worth discussing.”

Zhao Feng seemed to see through Wang Ba’s self-satisfaction, and bluntly criticized.

Wang Ba didn’t take offense. Their relationship was not bothered by these words. Upon hearing Zhao Feng’s words, he quickly asked for guidance.

Zhao Feng, far from being stingy with his pointers, specifically pointed out the shortcomings that Wang Ba exposed in their recent battle.

“You must always conceal your aura!”

“Not alert enough…unaware of the enemy’s situation…”

“Be prepared to summon your magic tool at all times, attack the attack, and seize time…”

With this advice, Zhao Feng even personally taught Wang Ba a spell for concealing his aura–the “Intense Darkness” spell.

“This spell can greatly conceal one’s aura, although it can’t change the externally revealed realm, it can make others misjudge your strength.”

As he spoke, the sharp aura from Zhao Feng’s body that had previously caused unease instantly faded away to nothing.

The feeling was quite ordinary, even more so than the slightly chubby cultivator from earlier.

Even though Wang Ba hadn’t had much contact with the other late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators, upon seeing Zhao Feng, he got the feeling that ‘he’s nothing special’.

He was immediately surprised.

This method had a clever trick to it, compared to directly hiding one’s realm.

Simply put, would you be wary of a small, skinny but all muscle opponent or a tall opponent who looks worn out by excess in wine and women?

Although the analogy isn’t clear, the “Intense Darkness” spell does just that.

It lets people know at a glance that even though they have a realm, they are actually very weak.

Most people, or at least those of the same rank, won’t pay too much attention upon seeing someone like this.

“Senior brother, you are so clever!”

Wang Ba gave him a thumbs up, he couldn’t help it.

It was so cunning!

He didn’t expect that Senior Brother Zhao, being a sword cultivator, would also play this kind of game.

However, Wang Ba likes it.

Zhao Feng simply laughed it off, “If one didn’t have some tricks, how could one evade the public attacks of the cultivators.”

“You should practice it early, and when you are out in the world, it would be like having one more opportunity.”

Wang Ba earnestly nodded.

Under Zhao Feng’s careful guidance, he quickly got the hang of it.

It didn’t take long for him to grasp the essentials of application.

“Junior brother, you truly have an exceptional talent.”

Upon seeing this, Zhao Feng couldn’t help but show an expression of surprise.

It took him several months to learn this spell, yet his junior brother learned it in a blink of an eye, which shows that he indeed has a remarkable talent for spells.

Only Wang Ba himself knows what’s going on.

[Current Lifespan-1.4 years]

He cheated.

“It’s a pity that over the years, I haven’t found a way to resolve the issue of the Spirit Sending Sign.”

Zhao Feng suddenly sighed.

Hearing Zhao Feng’s words, Wang Ba didn’t feel too disappointed.

The Spirit Beast Bag he currently has conceals a Child Insect of a Yin Devouring Insect parasitizing a Class I upper grade Spirit Turtle.

This Yin Devouring Child Insect grows very fast, and has perfectly concealed the Spirit Turtle’s soul aura at this point. Anyways, Wang Ba can’t detect it now.

He just has to wait for the God-trusting Torch to be completed, then he can test to see if the Yin Devouring Child Insect can completely conceal it.

As soon as this is confirmed, the plan to leave the Tianmen Cult might come to fruition.

After some thought, two heads are better than one, so he simply summoned the Spirit Turtle and showed it to Zhao Feng.

“Such a peculiar spirit insect exists that can conceal the soul.”

Zhao Feng’s face showed surprise when he saw the parasitized Spirit Turtle.

As he too couldn’t detect any soul aura from this Spirit Turtle.

However, upon hearing that the Yin Devouring Child Insect needed to parasitize to achieve this effect, he frowned slightly, then promptly gave Wang Ba an idea.

“Junior brother, have you ever heard about the ‘Second Dantian’?”

“Second Dantian?”

Wang Ba looked confused.

“It’s normal that junior brother doesn’t know, this is a hypothesis proposed by a senior in the Cultivation World, aiming to solve the difficulty of cultivators in advancing further.”

Zhao Feng explained:

“This senior has observed countless cultivators facing difficulties in their cultivation, and found that many cultivators, despite their decent talent, were stuck in front of the bottleneck incapable to break through. The reason is that their foundation is not firm enough, and they lack a deep base, so the idea of creating another Dantian occurred, to cultivate again in the second Dantian. After that, both can work together to breakthrough since they come from the same source. Naturally, it would be easier to enter a higher realm.”
