Cloud Stepping Art

"Turns out, 160 meters per second wasn't the limit of the New Cultivation Method."

"The limit of the New Cultivation Method was 360 meters per second—a speed of 1,300 kilometers per hour! That wasn't a humanoid supercar anymore; it was humanoid lightning!"

"I'm genuinely kneeling before the screen in worship. Two months ago, you could've beaten me to death and I still wouldn't have believed that we humans could unravel the mysteries of life and raise the upper limit of our lifespan to 240 years!"

"A minute ago, you could've beaten me to death and I still wouldn't have believed that the human body, without relying on any equipment whatsoever, could reach speeds of over a thousand kilometers per hour!"

"And at speeds beyond the sound barrier, there wasn't even a sonic boom. Yi Chen seemed to have solved the sonic-boom problem too."

"I feel like I'm about to explode on the spot. Not being able to learn even an improved version of the Chaos Art has already left me unable to eat or sleep, tormented every day."

"And now there's another cultivation method that can let humans surpass the speed of sound... Just thinking about not being able to learn it makes life feel worse than death."

"Exactly! Worse than death! Yi Chen is practically a devil. How could he create cultivation methods with such terrifying appeal?"

"Heaven bless me—I'm willing to trade ten years of my life for Yi Chen to suddenly have a whim and record the cultivation chants for the improved Chaos Art and this New Cultivation Method."

"I'm willing to trade twenty years of my lifespan... Not being able to learn them is driving me insane."

After the shock wore off, the viewers before their screens were plunged into a chorus of wailing misery.

Everyone's mood sank deeper and deeper, reaching rock bottom.

Not being able to learn the improved Chaos Art was already painful enough for all humanity, and now another immensely alluring New Cultivation Method had appeared.

Everyone felt that if they could not learn it, life would be worse than death.

The major news websites also updated their front-page headlines at once.

Traffic surged to the point that the owners of every major news website could not stop grinning, and they announced that all employees would receive double pay.

On the snowfield, after more than twenty minutes of tormenting it,

Yi Chen finally let the Lightning Sable go, considering that it had helped him test the cultivation method. He stopped chasing and intercepting it, allowing it to flee back to the Mountain Cave.

As for whether the Lightning Sable could escape disaster once the Flame Mountain Tribe began expanding, that would depend on its attitude.

All Ferocious Beasts possessed some degree of intelligence.

This Lightning Sable was not particularly powerful, nor was its intelligence high, but it had at least some awareness.

If it knew to surrender, then when the Flame Mountain Tribe expanded, it would certainly escape calamity.

But if, after suffering a loss, it still stubbornly refused to bow its head and attempted to block the Flame Mountain Tribe's expansion, then only a dead end awaited it.

After completing the test and finding no shortcomings or overlooked issues, Yi Chen called Gu Li and the others over and led them back to the Flame Mountain Tribe along the same route.

"Tr-Tribal Chief, how was your speed just now even faster than the Lightning Sable's?"

Gu Li gathered her courage and asked curiously.

Having heard the elders of the Tribe recount Yi Chen's divine miracles so often, even she had gradually become somewhat restrained in his presence.

Luo Ge and the others did not even dare ask.

"The Cloud Stepping Art. It's a cultivation method I just created that can greatly increase speed."

Yi Chen casually gave the New Cultivation Method a name.

"The Tribal Chief truly is the reincarnation of a deity..."

Worshipful light flashed through Gu Li's eyes.

The reverence in Luo Ge and the others' eyes had reached an almost fanatical level.

In their view, if Yi Chen were not the reincarnation of a deity, how could he possibly create a cultivation method that let people move even faster than a Lightning Sable?

As for whether they themselves could learn it, they did not dare dwell on that thought.

If Yi Chen was willing to teach them, it would be a gift from the gods.

If Yi Chen was unwilling to teach them, then it must be because the gods believed they were unqualified to learn it.

"Ugh, these people from the Flame Mountain Tribe are just like those people at the Cultivation Method Research Institute—useless trash."

"Every one of them is too afraid to speak in front of Yi Chen. Even Gu Li only dared ask a single question. She still didn't dare act cute and beg him for the cultivation method."

"It can't be helped. That's an Exile Planet in the Barbaric Era. The Tribe's people firmly believe in the existence of ghosts and gods."

"With the High Priest desperately spreading the word, Yi Chen is not only the Tribe's Tribal Chief now—he also seems to have vaguely seized Divine Right."

"To put it bluntly, Gu Li and the others are already quite bold. At least they still dare stand before a god."

The viewers in the Live Stream Room were all bitterly disappointed.

The tiny hope they had so painstakingly raised was shattered once more.

Upon returning to The Valley, Yi Chen went straight back to his Wooden House.

He did not enter the Meditative State. Instead, he began researching a weakened version of the Cloud Stepping Art based on the original.

Most of the Tribe's people had only cultivated for three or four months before spring arrived.

Aside from a handful of geniuses, their realms would at most reach the Qi Condensation Realm Fourth Stage or Fifth Stage.

Under such circumstances, the Cloud Stepping Art Yi Chen had created at the Spirit Release Realm First Level was something most Tribe members simply could not learn.

Even geniuses like Gu Li, who had already broken through to the Spirit Release Realm First Level, would find it difficult to fully comprehend the Cloud Stepping Art in a short time.

If he wanted the people to learn the Cloud Stepping Art quickly, greatly increase their strength with it after spring arrived, and formally begin expanding,

then without question, he had to improve the Cloud Stepping Art until it was as simple and easy to learn as the Flying Knife Art.

Creating the Cloud Stepping Art had taken Yi Chen two months.

But using the Cloud Stepping Art as a foundation to create a weakened version only took him one hour.

Under the puzzled gazes of the Live Stream Room viewers, he left the Wooden House once again.

Then, he ordered someone to summon the entire Tribe to gather in the center of The Valley.

Given Yi Chen's current authority and prestige within the Flame Mountain Tribe, his orders were already close to a Divine Decree.

All members of the Tribe—men and women, young and old—immediately put down whatever they were doing upon receiving the command and rushed toward the center of The Valley.

In just over twenty minutes, more than a thousand Flame Mountain Tribe members had fully assembled in the center of The Valley.

The Harsh Winter had already lasted two months.

Thanks to cultivating the Chaos Art and having ample food, the Tribe members had not become skin and bones, weak and listless as they had in previous years. Instead, every one of them was full of vigor, their faces glowing with health.

Yi Chen was extremely satisfied with their condition.

He did not say much. He casually picked up a stone.

Then he began carving the cultivation chant and Meridian Cultivation Chart for the weakened Cloud Stepping Art onto the stone wall.

At that moment, every viewer in the Live Stream Room widened their eyes, trembling all over with excitement.
