Wood's Xun and Zhen

[Tiangong College], Lingyun Residence. 🎀♠ 👌♨

This is a courtyard built on a precipitous cliff, where the mountain wind howls. Even though the building materials are solid, it still gives people a sense of unease as if it is about to collapse.

The sky was just beginning to lighten, but the earth was still somewhat dark.

Ling Yi sat cross-legged on the edge of the cliff, ignoring the perilous situation below that seemed like an abyss, and gazed into the distance at the boundary between black and white in the sky.

"Two polarities, five elements, eight trigrams."

Ling Yi's clear black and white pupils reflected the Eastern world. His spiritual power was activated, and he entered a "Superego State," with sparks of wisdom constantly flashing in his mind.

The mind, which had long been integrated into the world around him along with the ' Blue Silver Domain,' was revived in the depths of his soul as the sun gradually rose.

At a certain moment, a fleeting flash of inspiration struck, and Ling Yi, in his "Superego State," locked onto it.

"Blue Silver Grass, belonging to the Yin and Yang principle, the Five Elements principle, and the Eight Trigrams principle, specifically Xun and Zhen!"

"Call--!"

A mountain breeze brushed his face. Ling Yi raised his hand, as if trying to grasp the invisible wind, but he grasped nothing.

Ling Yi was not discouraged by this, but carefully felt the moment when the wind passed through the gaps between his fingers.

"Wind, or rather, airflow?"

"Regarding airflow... cold and hot?"

"Tsk!"

Ling Yi shook his head, pulling back the thought that was about to lead him to "Approaching Science," and started from the perspective of "idealistic metaphysics" again.

"However, if we really approach it from the perspective of cold and heat, it's not impossible; it's just the five elements of water and fire~"

Setting this idea aside for the time being, Ling Yi lowered his head and took out a blue scale the size of a human head from his Storage Soul Tool.

"Let's start with you first, instead of the wind~"

Whether it's the third move of "Beast Martial Soul: Xingyi Fist Style I - Light as a Swallow" or the advanced version of the third move of "Beast Martial Soul: Xingyi Fist Style II - Swan Goose Soars into the Vast Heavens", both rely on the power of the wind to increase their speed.

It can be said that Ling Yi actually had a certain foundation in the study of the "Way of Wind".

Therefore, Ling Yi chose to study the Zhen trigram of the Eight Trigrams first, which is the "Way of Thunder"!

Holding a blue scale in his left hand and stroking it back and forth with his right, this action would have been rather lewd if he hadn't been acting normally.

These are scales that fell off when the "Sky Azure Bull Python" shed its skin Da Ming.

Last time in the core area of the Star Dou Great Forest, Ling Yi demonstrated the Two Aspects Fist to Da Ming more than ten times, drawing out the two hidden extreme cold and extreme heat within his body for Da Ming to comprehend. In return, Da Ming gave Ling Yi all the scales that had fallen off during his molting over tens of thousands of years.

"Buzz—!"

As Ling Yi infused his Soul Power into the scales, a sound, though not loud, was surprisingly clear, and even the howling mountain wind couldn't easily shatter it. ♢💚 Claw 🏆😳

"Sizzle sizzle—"

Visible to the naked eye, a tiny, pale golden arc of electricity emerged from the scales.

The next second, the electric arc struck Ling Yi's right hand precisely.

Feeling that momentary tingling sensation, Ling Yi didn't even blink, and the thought of "how many volts is that?" even popped into his mind.

Without letting distracting thoughts continue to fester, I formed the "Lin Character Seal in my mind without making any hand gestures. With a focused mind, I almost merged with the cliff below me, remaining steadfast and unmoved despite the mountain winds.

Once again, Ling Yi channeled his Soul Power into the scales, and tiny, pale golden arcs of electricity appeared again. This time, prepared, Ling Yi enveloped his right palm with his Soul Power, grabbed the surging arcs, and attempted to refine and analyze them.

Time passed second by second, and in the sky directly ahead, a fiery red sun had already risen from the horizon into the sky, showering the earth with endless light and heat.

Not far behind them, inside the courtyard wall, Ah Yin and Ah Rou, who usually go to bed late and get up early, finished washing up. As soon as they pushed open the door, they saw the breakfast that Ling Yi had left for them on the dining table in the hall.

The two women instinctively turned their gaze to the adjacent bedroom, and seeing that the door was tightly closed, their expressions changed in different ways.

The next second, Ah Yin was the first to turn her gaze away and look outside. The "Blue Silver Grass" covering the ground told her that the "King" was not inside, but outside.

Fifteen minutes later, just as Ah Yin and Ah Rou finished their breakfast, the door to Ling Yi's bedroom opened from the inside, and a figure exuding a lazy aura slowly walked out.

Yang Shelly, wearing Ling Yi's shirt, her black hair cascading over her shoulders, walked along while rubbing her slender waist. It was clear that Yang Shelly was very tired; her legs were weak and her back and knees ached, causing the two women at the table to exchange bewildered glances.

Although Ah Yin and Ah Rou didn't hear any unusual sounds last night because of the "Sound-Eating Bat Statue," judging from Yang Shelly's appearance, the two women knew that a very fierce battle must have taken place last night.

The Power Attack System Battle Soul King had turned into this state overnight. Ah Rou subconsciously thought of the Soul Beast "Amorous Ape" and "Pink Crystal Mantis".

These two are quite peculiar even in the world of Soul Beast. The former can plunder the energy and vitality of the opposite sex through mating, while the latter eats the other partner in a physical sense after each mating.

Ah Yin didn't think as far ahead as Ah Rou; she simply gained a deeper understanding of Brother Yi's physical strength.

After breakfast, the three women each entered a state of cultivation.

Yang Shelly returned to her room and began to diligently cultivate her Soul Power. Ah Yin's earlier comment that she was not far from level 54 had slightly spurred her on.

Although Ah Yin is only eighteen years old, while she is already twenty-four, their Soul Power Level are the same, which clearly shows that Ah Yin's talent far surpasses hers.

But Yang Shelly was still unwilling to admit defeat so easily. After all, she had a six-year head start. She admitted that she was slightly less talented, but now, with Ling Yi's help, she was almost on the same starting line. She did not want to lose to Ah Yin in terms of cultivation speed!

Ah Yin's talent had already reached the ceiling of human Soul Master. With just a little effort in cultivating Soul Power, she could achieve the same results as an ordinary Soul Master, which gave her the confidence to focus on strengthening her physique.

Furthermore, practicing the "Beast Martial Soul: Xingyi Fist Style II" taught to her by Ling Yi not only strengthens her physique but also indirectly allows her to learn nine Soul Skill with effects including attack, defense, evasion, and amplification. For a Soul Master who follows a Control System path, this is tantamount to transforming herself into a versatile warrior capable of leading an entire team single-handedly. This is something that other Soul Master who follow Agility Attack System, Power Attack System, or Defense System paths cannot achieve.

Ah Rou is still in the foundational stage, and like Tang Yuehua, she is studying the "Basic Body Tempering Technique".

The difference is that, at Ling Yi's suggestion, Ah Rou focused on the "Rabbit Form" of the twelve forms in the Basic Body Tempering Technique.

If Ah Rou is talented enough, and with Ling Yi's help, she might be able to carve out her own "Rabbit Form" advancement path.

Still writing, will try to finish the next chapter before midnight~
