CapĂtulo 1253: Chapter 485: New Insights from Review (2)
âAt least three levels higher.â
After reviewing, Ning Zhuo began his daily cultivation.
Upper Dantian Mirror Platform Spirit Communication Technique and Middle Dantian Five Elements Qi Regulation Technique were not the focus.
The profound depth of the Demon-infused Bloodline Technique far surpassed the other two cultivation techniques, becoming Ning Zhuoâs main target for insight.
Because of previous accumulation, Ning Zhuo gained insights every time he comprehended the demon skill, always maintaining good progress.
Today, as he delved once more, he naturally thought of weaving techniques.
A spirit light flashed across his Upper Dantian Divine Sea.
Ning Zhuo followed the inspiration, manipulating his internal energy to transform into a fascia.
He used weaving memories to craft more structures from the fasciaâstarting with plain weave, then changing to twill weave, finally forming a satin weave.
With these three weaving methods, the efficiency of blood qi flowing among them differed distinctly.
âPlain weave is dense, best for defense; twill weave is smooth, good for explosive speed; satin weave is flexible, best at dispersing forceâŠâ
âInteresting!â
Ning Zhuo looked again at the spiral, layer, and spiderweb structures within the Demon-infused Bloodline Technique and gained new insights.
âIsnât this the same as weaving methods, just with different end products?â
âSpiral weaving is like twisted rope, best for power transmission, when blood qi erupts, it drills through, making penetration extremely strong.â
âLayered weaving is like thousand-layer armor, layer upon layer, unrivaled in defense.â
âSpiderweb weaving can spread in all directions, catching wind and shadows, best at imprisoning and infecting.â
âAdditionally, the palindrome weave can be considered a blend of forward and reverse, continuously regenerating, possessing a magical self-healing property.â
âWhen I use demon tendon to infect othersâ blood qi, it is essentially using my own âweaving methodâ to forcibly overlay and rewrite othersâ blood qi structureâthis is âdemon infectingâ!â
Ning Zhuo felt a surge of joy in his heart.
He peeled away another layer of mist, seeing more of the truth.
Connecting the dots, integrating knowledgeâthis is one of the joys of cultivation.
After completing his daily lessons, Ning Zhuo communicated with Sun Lingtong through Life Hanging Thread.
âBoss, I have quite a few insights into my cultivation today.â He explained his progress to Sun Lingtong.
Sun Lingtong chuckled, also sharing his recent insights into strategizing the water array.
The two exchanged ideas for a while, both realizing they gained much from each other, making great progress, feeling happy for one another.
âI have comprehended the water array around Luoshu thoroughly, and Iâve found a way to resolve the array.â
âBut I canât do it alone.â
âLittle Zhuo, we need to collaborate to securely dismantle it.â
Since Ning Zhuo and Sun Lingtong secretly explored Shuyu Pavilion and discovered a hidden page of Taoist Artifact Luoshu, Sun Lingtong had been delving into the water array.
Finally, the end was in sight.
Ning Zhuo was thrilled, âThatâs great. Boss, what should I do? Iâll follow your lead.â
Sun Lingtong, âHehe. In fact, itâs you who are the main force, you need to face the array itself directly.â
âLittle Zhuo, your Five Elements Realm is much more profound than mine, you need to counter water with water.â
Ning Zhuo didnât quite understand, âOh.â
Sun Lingtong added, âBut how to counter water depends on testing your array abilities.â
Ning Zhuo frowned, âIn this area, canât you help, Boss?â
Sun Lingtong slightly shook his head in Shuyu Pavilion, âDifficult.â
âThe water array can change at any moment.â
âWhen Luoshu moves, the arrayâs changes become even more drastic. But weâre attempting to take Luoshu out from the center of the water array.â
âI can guide you, but thereâs simply no time.â
âLittle Zhuo, you are the main force, needing to calculate the water arrayâs changes and counter them within a breath.â
âThis requires your array abilities to be at least on par with mine.â
Ning Zhuo, âBoss, I understand.â
âIâll allocate more time to learn about arrays.â
âBut I donât have time right now. I need to immediately prepare to participate in the second round of the Xingyun Trial at Evil Slaying Hall, striving to seize the top position!â
Sun Lingtong, âHehe. Iâve thought of two ways we can advance together.â
âFirst, rely on your learning. I can help you acquire some Demon Cultivatorâs Souls to accumulate relevant array foundation.â
âSecond, rely on the Inheriting Dao Jade Page. We already have the refining method for the Inheriting Dao Jade Page, you refine some, and I infuse my understanding of Array Dao into them. When you absorb it, your Array Dao Realm will increase.â
This method would cause Sun Lingtongâs Array Dao Realm to drop, needing to be regained through learning and insights.
Ning Zhuo was unreserved and even eager, âUsing the Inheriting Dao Jade Page might be more convenient.â
The relationship between him and Sun Lingtong was so close, almost inseparable.
In fact, he plotted around the Inheriting Dao Jade Page previously, wanting to use his formidable learning ability to improve his realm, then help Sun Lingtong advance.
Itâs about learning first and leading later.
Now, Sun Lingtong was merely giving his Array Dao Realm to Ning Zhuo first.
Ning Zhuo, âBut refining the Inheriting Dao Jade Page takes quite an effort. Acquiring the needed materials also takes time.â
Sun Lingtong, âFor cultivators who have reached the ninth stage, itâs not just you, Little Zhuo. There are others.â
âLet Chef get in touch with them and see if we can purchase at a high price.â
Ning Zhuo nodded, finding this approach agreeable.
He wasnât short on money now but lacked time. Solving this problem with money would be ideal.
âHowever, during the Xingyun Trial period, when opportunities are everywhere, would there be cultivators willing to make paper for others?â Ning Zhuo was unsure.
Sun Lingtong shrugged, indifferent, âLetâs try.â
âHmm.â Ning Zhuo nodded.
The two discussed and agreed.
Taoist Artifact Luoshu!
Even one page is extraordinarily valuable.
Those who used it all praised it!
Ning Zhuo and Sun Lingtong used it repeatedly, always giving a thumbs-up each time.
Actually extracting Luoshu would likely greatly enhance Sun Ningâs computational abilities, also securing it safely.
Leaving it in Shuyu Pavilion was not safe!
Ning Zhuo continued to recuperate, while Sun Lingtong disguised himself and returned to the black market in the cave.
The gray-robed cultivator, upon seeing Sun Lingtong, trembled all over, nervously greeted, âElder Sun, youâre, youâre here.â
Sun Lingtong laughed secretly.
He and Ning Zhuo had discussed earlier, knowing the inside story about Qin De, clearly understanding that the gray-robed cultivator couldnât fulfill the previous agreement.
But Sun Lingtong pretended not to know, eagerly said, âIâm here! Iâve given you so much time, you should have succeeded, right? Whereâs the goods? Let me see!â
âAbout that, thatâŠâ The gray-robed cultivator was extremely embarrassed, hesitating.
Sun Lingtongâs expression changed, his gaze and tone becoming sharp, âFriend, you didnât succeed again, did you? Or are you trying to raise the price last minute?â
âYou must remember, weâve signed a Divine Contract.â
Divine Contract!
The mere thought of this made the gray-robed cultivator feel numb. He regretted his decision greatly.
He originally thought he could get Qin Deâs soul but found no opportunity despite his full effort.
He messed up!
This business was thoroughly messed up!
Now with the goods owner confronting him, the gray-robed cultivator could only helplessly smile, forced to explain.
Sun Lingtong listened halfway and simply waved, âThese are all excuses! I donât care, I just want the goods!â
âAre you trying to play me?â
âI just want the goods!â
âJust deliver them!!â
âIf not, heh.â
Sun Lingtongâs cold laugh sent shivers through the gray-robed cultivator, sweat already gathering on his forehead.
âHow was I supposed to know it would turn out like this!â
âNow I know, the waters here are very deep.â
âElder Sun, you wouldnât knowingly set me up, would you?â
Sun Lingtong immediately responded with a cold laugh, âYou broke the promise first, yet youâre blaming me? Fine, fine! This dealâs off, have you thought about how to handle the Divine Contract backlash?â
âPlease, please, letâs discuss this, Elder Sun!â The gray-robed cultivator instantly relented, begging mercy.
If Sun Lingtong agreed to terminate the contract, he wouldnât suffer the Divine Contract backlash.
Sun Lingtong glared, his stance resolute.
Terminate the contract?
Impossible!
The gray-robed cultivator felt despair, but he was prepared, forcing himself to continue despite the pain, âElder Sun, donât be quick to reject, I have good compensation for you!â
