We've Got Plenty of This Junk!
For several days in a row, Tai Chu led a group of his junior brothers, all of whom Taiyin Evil Spirits, to the Artifact Refining Palace every day!
At first, Ouyang Ming didn't think much of it, but then Ouyang Qingyan spoke up!
"Are you stupid? Look at them now, don't they look just like you did when you looked at our kitchen back then?!"
Ouyang Ming: "???"
Ouyang Ming said, "Wife... what the hell are you talking to me about? Don't you ever consider that you were blind back then... how could you possibly see what I look like?"
In response to Ouyang Ming's statement, Ouyang Ming Ouyang Qingyan slapped him on the back of the head, then retorted, "Even though I couldn't see it then, didn't I hear your drooling?"
Look at Tai Chu and the others now, they're practically drooling!
Do you believe me if I say that the Tai Chu and the others are alright?
After being lectured by his wife, Ouyang Ming realized that things might not be so simple, so he sought out his Junior Brother Tai Chu Ouyang Ming again!
"Junior Brother Tai Chu, we're fellow disciples, so just say what's on your mind. Why are you being shy? Is there anything I can help you with?"
"Ah... no... no way..." Tai Chu looked nervous in response to Senior Brother Ouyang's question!
"There's nothing to it... Just say what you mean! Just say it!"
Faced with Ouyang Ming's persistent questioning, Tai Chu sighed and revealed his true thoughts!
Since the Taiyin Evil Spirits joined the Vast Heaven Holy Land, to be honest, the entire Vast Heaven Holy Land has greatly increased in strength because of the addition of Tai Chu and the others!
Not only the disciples, but even the elders of the Vast Heaven Holy Land have improved a lot!
Because of the existence of the Tai Chu, things that were previously impossible to learn are now available for us to learn!
With the help of Tai Chu, the Vast Heaven Holy Land has now increased its overall strength by at least 10% to 20%!
That's absolutely terrifying!
This is a general improvement, and not only that, the Tai Chu and their companions also made huge profits by helping others learn all sorts of knowledge!
So don't be fooled by the seemingly weak appearance of the Taiyin Evil Spirits; their role is actually enormous!
However, even though the Tai Chu found their purpose, they also had their own struggles!
Tai Chu and the others felt a great sense of accomplishment in helping their fellow disciples and elders improve!
However, in the Tai Chu, they were never able to fight themselves!
There's no way around it... In the Tai Chu, they could learn and even pass on any cultivation techniques or secret methods... but they themselves had no way to use them!
This means that the Taiyin Evil Spirits has absolutely no fighting power!
Seeing their fellow disciples flying through the air and displaying astonishing combat prowess all day long, it would be a lie to say that Tai Chu and the others had no thoughts about it at all!
They possess all the most powerful martial arts techniques in the world!
But there's no key to use it!
To say they aren't upset would be a lie!
Therefore, under these circumstances, Tai Chu had previously found Senior Brother Xinghe!
After all, Tai Chu knew that Senior Brother Xinghe known for his unparalleled strategic planning and that there was nothing he couldn't solve.
So Tai Chu's idea was simple: was it possible for Senior Brother Xinghe to change the situation of our Taiyin Evil Spirits Clan, allowing us to also possess combat power?
But when faced with his own problems, Tai Chu discovered that even Senior Brother Xinghe had been rendered speechless!
Seeing the silent Senior Brother Xinghe, Tai Chu could only helplessly say that he had disturbed him and that his junior brother had been presumptuous. He asked Senior Brother Xinghe not to take it too seriously.
Then Tai Chu prepared to leave!
Seeing Tai Chu so dejected, Chu Xinghe quickly called out to his Junior Brother Tai Chu!
"Junior Brother Tai Chu... to be honest, your current situation is quite unique..."
"You possess the world's greatest knowledge... you are proficient in almost every martial art... but you simply cannot use them!"
Chu Xinghe's words are absolutely correct!
Don't let Elder He's reputation as having unparalleled knowledge of all things fool you; when it comes to martial arts techniques and abilities, the Taiyin Evil Spirits have far surpassed Elder He's imagination!
Look, ever since Tai Chu and the others joined the Vast Heaven Holy Land and their abilities were discovered, they have learned almost all the cultivation techniques of the Vast Heaven Holy Land!
Not only the techniques of Vast Heaven Holy Land, but also other powerful figures from various parties sought out Tai Chu his group to pass on their knowledge to their disciples.
Not only that, but even the art of weapon crafting, alchemy, and formations... everything you can and can't imagine, Tai Chu and his people know it all!
You can say that Tai Chu and the others are an encyclopedia of cultivation without any problem at all!
The only problem is that the Encyclopedia of Cultivation cannot be cultivated by oneself...
In Chu Xinghe's view, it was normal for Tai Chu and his group to react this way in the face of this situation!
The question is, how do we solve this problem?
In response, Chu Xinghe said to his Junior Brother Tai Chu, "Don't be discouraged... This problem of yours actually reminded me of someone..."
There was once a girl who was proficient in all kinds of secret techniques and martial arts... but she had no fighting ability herself. However, she could fight by instructing a sycophant under her command!
So sometimes the path isn't absolute. Even if you're destined not to use any techniques, it doesn't mean you can't use other things!
So please don't worry, Senior Brother Xinghe is actually preparing to go into seclusion... ahem... seclusion... while I'm in seclusion, I'll also help you think things through...
As the saying goes, science changes lives. When metaphysics can't solve something, scientific research might just provide the answer!
Although Tai Chu did not understand what science was, Tai Chu still held hope for the Future!
But Senior Brother Xinghe has been in seclusion for so long and hasn't come out yet, leaving Tai Chu helpless...
So recently, Tai Chu and the others came to the Artifact Refining Palace to see if Senior Brother Ouyang had any way to give their Taiyin Evil Spirits combat power!
"Oh, I see! That makes things easier! Someone! Bring out all sorts of magical artifacts!"
At Ouyang Ming's command, all sorts of divine artifacts and magical treasures were brought out one after another!
But as these magical treasures were presented to Tai Chu, an embarrassing situation arose!
Regardless of the type of magical artifact, if you want to use it in battle, don't you need to use Spirit Power or other forces to activate it?
If it cannot be activated, how can the spirit treasure fight?
What the heck? You're saying a magical treasure protects its master?
That's right! Top-tier spiritual treasures can protect their masters when they are in danger, and can even help their masters fight on their own!
We don't know how many spiritual treasures of this caliber are found elsewhere, but Ouyang Ming says that our Artifact Refining Palace has no shortage of this kind of junk!
The problem is, if you want a magical artifact to protect you, don't you first need to become the artifact's owner?
Currently, there are several ways in which a spirit treasure recognizes its master!
The first method is blood oath!
The spiritual blood within your body enters the spiritual treasure, and the spiritual treasure senses your blood and power, recognizing you as its master!
Ouyang Ming said he had plenty of this kind of junk!
But after testing all the magical treasures and having Tai Chu drip blood into them, Tai Chu became anemic... and there was still no reaction!
The reason is simple... Blood recognition isn't just about any blood; it has to be blood with Spirit Power!
Is there a hammer-like Spirit Power in the blood of the Taiyin Evil Spirits spirit?
As for the second type of treasure recognizing its master, that is direct soul recognition!
Ouyang Ming told his fellow disciples not to panic, saying that they had plenty of those broken souls that had already recognized their masters!
So Ouyang Ming simply took out this piece of junk!
But then another problem arises... In a normal soul-to-soul recognition ceremony, do you need to urge the soul to make the spirit treasure recognize its master?
But the problem is... how does the Taiyin Evil Spirits activate a soul?
This is clearly another problem that cannot be solved!
Because activating the soul also requires the support of Spirit Power; without Spirit Power, it's impossible...
But Ouyang Ming told his junior brothers not to panic... "We have other methods of establishing a master... such as a contractual mastery..."
But when Ouyang Ming chose to help Tai Chu and the others establish a contract, he discovered that Heavenly Dao... would not allow it!
Damn it... Heavenly Dao's will doesn't allow Taiyin Evil Spirits without Spirit Power to fulfill the contract...
After all, think about it... if Tai Chu and the others could sign a contract, then theoretically, wouldn't they be able to have summoned beasts?
Could they perhaps pursue the Summoner path...?
But clearly, they can't do it!
So after a series of attempts, Tai Chu really had to give up!
"Thank you, Senior Brother Ouyang... It seems we truly have nowhere else to go... We'll take our leave..."
Tai Chu stood up, ready to lead everyone away!
But Ouyang Ming wouldn't have it this time!
Walk?
You can't move an inch now!
This is... I'm only at the Half-Step Concept Level... I refuse to believe it today!
What do you mean by leaving now? Are you looking down on your Senior Brother Ouyang?
Besides... you yourself, Tai Chu, said that when you went to see Senior Brother Xinghe before, didn't he say...?
You are not without a chance!
Ouyang Ming said, "Friends, in the past, we always asked Senior Brother Xinghe to come up with solutions, and then we would imagine how to solve them!"
But Senior Brother Xinghe is too tired... He needs to rest too!
Although Senior Brother Xinghe didn't offer a specific solution this time, I, Ouyang Ming, am already a mature junior brother!
I can't wait forever for Senior Brother Xinghe to come up with a solution!
Should I learn to think for myself?
Therefore, Ouyang Ming declared, "You Taiyin Evil Spirits, sit down!"
Hey everyone! Keep a close eye on the Taiyin Evil Spirits! Nobody's getting away with this!
You all better sit tight this time!
We have to think ahead of Senior Brother Xinghe this time. We've been saying we'd give Senior Brother Xinghe a surprise!
But if we think about it carefully, have we really given Senior Brother Xinghe any surprises?
Why does Senior Brother Xinghe always look so calm and collected?
Because Senior Brother Xinghe had already guessed the outcome!
So Senior Brother Xinghe wasn't surprised at all!
What is a surprise?
Senior Brother Xinghe raised the question himself and even gave us the answer, and we still managed to do it. Is that considered a surprise?
This is at best meeting expectations!
It doesn't even come close to being a pleasant surprise!
And this time, I, Ouyang Ming, have also realized that I, Ouyang Ming, am going to give Senior Brother Xinghe a really big surprise!
Senior Brother Xinghe, don't worry. You're still on the ninth floor of the Technique Repository Tower, and you haven't even come out yet. But your junior brother has already prepared a surprise for you!
