Tower Spirit's Shock, Advanced Talent, Sky Roc Illusory Shadow

"That strong?"

Chen Feng listened to the Wind and Cloud Tower Spirit, a hint of surprise in his eyes.

He knew just how terrifying Sixth-order Martial Artists were.

They were beings capable of transforming into heaven and earth, manipulating the weather.

According to what Wan Baoyang had said before, one such individual could destroy an entire city.

After learning this, Chen Feng had harbored a trace of worry.

He wanted to enter Black Mountain directly, to see what was within Black Mountain that had attracted the attention of Sword Cultivator Yun Xi and so many top experts.

It was precisely because of his worry about Sixth-order Demons that he hadn't dared to step foot inside.

Now, to have such a cultivation technique that could increase his speed to a level not inferior to Sixth-order Demons.

It was simply too powerful!

He didn't doubt the Wind and Cloud Tower Spirit's intentions and immediately began cultivating the Sky Roc's Vertical and Horizontal Technique.

He planned to cultivate it to the proficient level first, and then combine it with the new talent he was sure to awaken. That way, as long as his speed was up, even if he couldn't win, he could at least escape.

It was different from the Cloudy Smoke Carefree Steps.

The Cloudy Smoke Carefree Steps itself was merely derived from a Yellow-grade martial skill.

Extremely simple.

Although it had increased his speed.

Its most important function was merely maneuvering and shifting within a small area.

But this Sky Roc's Vertical and Horizontal Technique was more about long-distance sprints.

Following the cultivation method of the Sky Roc's Vertical and Horizontal Technique, Chen Feng controlled his True Qi with his mind, carefully circulating it towards the meridians in his legs.

The Sky Roc's Vertical and Horizontal Technique passed through an extremely complex network of meridians.

Chen Feng controlled the circulation of True Qi at an extremely slow pace.

It was as if he was afraid of damaging his meridians.

The Wind and Cloud Tower Spirit, observing Chen Feng on the stone platform, was filled with confusion.

"This shouldn't be!"

In its eyes, Chen Feng's speed of cultivation and comprehension was that of a Martial Artist with not much talent!

And his meridians were also extremely weak.

Otherwise, why would he control the circulation so slowly?

The Wind and Cloud Tower Spirit had encountered countless geniuses over the years.

Including those with a hundred meridians open, innate sword bodies, martial bodies, and so on.

To it, these Martial Artists with various top-tier talents were the true peak geniuses.

But even those peak geniuses didn't cultivate as quickly as Chen Feng.

"What exactly is going on?" The Wind and Cloud Tower Spirit was puzzled.

It was eager to see more clearly.

However, with Chen Feng cultivating various body-strengthening techniques, and having also reached the entry-level for the Golden Bell Shield.

Chen Feng's body surface was even covered with a faint golden glow.

This made the Wind and Cloud Tower Spirit feel a sense of admiration.

If it wanted to forcefully probe Chen Feng's internal condition, it would have to send its consciousness into Chen Feng's body.

This would greatly affect Chen Feng, who was currently comprehending and cultivating the martial skill Sky Roc's Vertical and Horizontal Technique.

It might even cause Chen Feng to fail his comprehension directly. If it suffered damage itself, that was not an outcome it was willing to see.

It could only wait quietly for Chen Feng to comprehend and cultivate.

"The Sky Roc's Vertical and Horizontal Technique can be considered the strongest and most complex of the three martial skills. I wonder if Chen Feng can comprehend it successfully within an hour?"

"The Golden Bell Shield before only took twenty minutes to comprehend. This Sky Roc's Vertical and Horizontal Technique will definitely require double the time."

The Wind and Cloud Tower Spirit muttered to itself.

However, at that very moment.

Boom!

With a rumbling sound.

Chen Feng merely stomped his foot lightly on the ground, and then his body shot out like an illusion.

His entire form seemed to transform into a golden light.

He even collided with the wall.

[You have successfully completed one cultivation of the Sky Roc's Vertical and Horizontal Technique. You have successfully cultivated the martial skill Sky Roc's Vertical and Horizontal Technique.]

[Martial Skill: Sky Roc's Vertical and Horizontal Technique (Proficiency 10%.)]

Chen Feng stood in place, his face filled with excitement.

"This is truly too fast."

He had just managed to run through the Sky Roc's Vertical and Horizontal Technique completely one time.

Under normal cultivation, he would have definitely failed.

After all, the cultivation of the Sky Roc's Vertical and Horizontal Technique required the ferocity of True Qi to achieve extreme speed.

Simply running through it slowly once should have resulted in failure.

He needed to complete the circulation within an even faster timeframe.

However, for Chen Feng, the moment the complete circulation route took shape, he had solidified it, directly cultivating the Sky Roc's Vertical and Horizontal Technique to the entry-level stage.

At that very moment, all the cultivation information regarding the Sky Roc's Vertical and Horizontal Technique flooded Chen Feng's mind.

This made his understanding and execution of the technique much more proficient.

Then, he involuntarily began to cultivate according to the methods of the Sky Roc's Vertical and Horizontal Technique.

The Wind and Cloud Tower Spirit on the stone platform, who had been in shock, was still bewildered.

It had no idea how Chen Feng had managed to cultivate successfully just now.

However, just as it was about to stand up and inform Chen Feng of his success and hand over the complete Sky Roc's Vertical and Horizontal Technique, it froze in place once more at that instant.

Watching Chen Feng darting around the tower, its eyes were filled with disbelief and horror. It exclaimed in shock, "Proficient realm?"

"How has he reached proficiency in such a short time?"

The Wind and Cloud Tower Spirit's eyes were filled with dread.

Meanwhile, Chen Feng, who was cultivating the Sky Roc's Vertical and Horizontal Technique, also felt a surge of pleasant surprise.

The moment he successfully cultivated the Sky Roc's Vertical and Horizontal Technique to the entry-level stage, information about the Sky Roc's Vertical and Horizontal Technique martial skill appeared on his status panel.

Immediately following that, the Cloudy Smoke Carefree Steps began to flash wildly.

Then, a round of fusion for movement techniques commenced.

[Your Sky Roc's Vertical and Horizontal Technique has fused with the movement technique Cloudy Smoke Carefree Steps, and your proficiency in Sky Roc's Vertical and Horizontal Technique has greatly increased.]

[Your Sky Roc's Vertical and Horizontal Technique has advanced to the proficient stage.]

[Your Intermediate Talent Cloudy Smoke Illusory Shadow has evolved into the Advanced Talent Sky Roc Illusory Shadow.]

[Martial Skill: Sky Roc's Vertical and Horizontal Technique (Proficient stage 50%.)]

[Advanced Talent: Sky Roc Illusory Shadow (Swift maneuvers, long-distance sprints, speed bonus. Can integrate Sky Roc Illusory Shadow during sprints, granting a 30% speed bonus.)]

Looking at the information refreshing on his status panel, Chen Feng's eyes showed a hint of shock.

"Is it this terrifying?"

With just a slight movement of his mind and a stomp of his foot, he appeared before the wall as if he had teleported.

It was simply too terrifying.

Based on the speed Chen Feng perceived while traveling with Wan Baoyang previously, his current speed had completely left the late Third Rank Wan Baoyang far behind.

Could this speed possibly have reached the Fourth Rank realm?

Chen Feng murmured with pleasant surprise in his eyes.

He hadn't tried it yet, but he felt that his current speed was likely considered extremely fast even among Fourth Rank cultivators!

"I wonder how my speed compares to a Fifth Rank Martial Artist?"

Chen Feng murmured with anticipation in his eyes.

Beside him, the Wind and Cloud Tower Spirit had already fallen into a state of shock, unable to extricate itself!

At this point, Chen Feng looked over and said respectfully, "Senior Tower Spirit, I wonder about the latter half of the Sky Roc's Vertical and Horizontal Technique?"
