Tang Sect · Observation Method, Skill of Instant Kill!

"Hmm, Transparent World and Physical Practice functions?"

Qin Qi lay on his bed, stunned as he listened to the prompts in his mind; he had anticipated the credit rewards, but he truly hadn't expected the rest.

System, what are the uses of the Transparent World and Physical Practice functions?

Qin Qi asked silently in his heart.

[Talent: Transparent World. You may learn this talent after claiming it.]

[Physical Practice function: The teacher can perform various tasks through the host's body.]

[Each use lasts for five minutes; as approval ratings increase, the duration will also increase.]

[Cooldown: Twenty-four hours.]

(During the use of Physical Practice, the host may terminate this state at any time to regain control of their body.)

After understanding his rewards, Qin Qi didn't claim them immediately; instead, he left the dormitory and found a secluded spot within the academy.

"Claim Transparent World."

Qin Qi said in his heart.

The moment he finished speaking, his body began to change, and every sound started to become crystal clear to his ears.

He could distinctly feel the beating of his heart, the flow of his blood, and the movement of his muscles.

At the same time, everything around him began to turn transparent and slow down; even with his eyes closed, the surrounding environment remained clearly visible.

"So slow! So quiet!"

Qin Qi's mind entered a state of profound tranquility, his emotions as calm as withered wood or dead stone.

His entire aura was completely retracted.

"Transparent World... is this the Transparent World from Demon Slayer?"

Qin Qi suddenly thought of the talent Tsugikuni Yoriichi was born with in the world of Demon Slayer: the Transparent World.

The Transparent World, also known as the See-Through World, allows one to perceive everything as if it were transparent upon entering this state.

Both external objects and one's own body become transparent.

This transparency brings with it unparalleled powers of observation; one can clearly see an enemy's blood flow, heartbeat, and muscle activity.

One can also clearly capture an enemy's malice and killing intent, and furthermore, instantly lock onto their weaknesses.

As for oneself, one can precisely mobilize every inch of muscle in the body, eliminating all unnecessary movements.

By concentrating all power into a single point, one can enhance both strength and speed.

Simultaneously, in this state, all aura is concealed, and the person becomes as still as a stone.

"Enter Study Space."

Qin Qi spent ten credits to enter the Study Space once more, manifesting the pig again.

Then, while maintaining the Transparent World state, he began the dissection.

"I can see it so clearly!"

Qin Qi could distinctly see the pig's heart beating, the location of its arteries, and its bones.

He could even capture the texture of the pork; he gripped his knife and thrust it forward.

The blade pierced smoothly into the pig's heart, killing it in one strike!

The level that an ordinary butcher would take years or even a decade to reach, Qin Qi had already attained!

Qin Qi stopped his movements, slowly adapting to the state of the Transparent World.

"Don't stop, continue, dissect the pig."

Tang Jiaren had been watching from the side; he didn't know what Qin Qi had encountered outside, but he noticed the change in him. At this moment, Qin Qi's aura was completely hidden.

Even he couldn't detect any presence, and he had almost overlooked Qin Qi's very existence.

"Mm."

Qin Qi's emotions were incredibly calm, and his words became sparse, as if speaking were a waste of energy.

He gripped the knife and began to dissect the pork; the pig's anatomical structure, the grain of the meat, and the gaps between the bones.

He saw everything with absolute clarity, and following these, he began to cut. Before long, Qin Qi had finished dissecting the pig.

"Do it again. This time, when processing the pig leg, shift the position of your blade slightly lower and use thirty percent less force."

Tang Jiaren instructed.

"Mm."

Qin Qi nodded, then spent one hundred credits to enter a state of Epiphany. The moment the Epiphany began, he felt a hum in his mind, and the world around him seemed to become even clearer.

Looking at the pig before him, he suddenly had a feeling—an intuition for how to do things better!

In the time that followed, Tang Jiaren kept having Qin Qi dissect pigs, starting from killing the pig first and then dissecting it.

This evolved into performing the dissection while the pig was still alive and running.

When he first began this step, Qin Qi made many mistakes; the running pig's position was constantly shifting.

The muscles were continuously contracting, and the bones were constantly shifting; Qin Qi needed to see more clearly.

The movements of his blade had to be faster, more accurate, and more decisive, otherwise, he would be unable to strike the weak points precisely.

It took Qin Qi five hours to successfully master the method of dissecting a running pig.

"In terms of the techniques of observation, you have already learned the Observation of People and the Observation of Objects, but you have yet to learn the Observation of Heart."

"Next, you will spar with me to learn what the Observation of Heart is."

Tang Jiaren drew a circle on the ground, a circle only large enough to accommodate the two of them.

As they stood inside, the space for interaction became very small, and then, within this square inch of space, they began to fight.

"Activate Epiphany State!"

Qin Qi activated the Epiphany State once again; in this state, he knew instinctively what needed to be done.

However, the Epiphany State was not a cheat; it merely increased Qin Qi's learning efficiency and did not directly increase his strength.

In terms of observation, even with the talent of the Transparent World, Qin Qi still could not compare to Tang Jiaren, who had been practicing for over seventy years.

It was not just a matter of realm; his techniques were also far inferior. Tang Jiaren's movements were clearly cleaner and more efficient.

"Exhale, inhale, exhale, inhale."

Watching Tang Jiaren, Qin Qi began to spontaneously adjust his own breathing.

He started to imitate Tang Jiaren's muscle movements; the extraneous motions in his own movements decreased, and he became faster!

One minute, two minutes, three minutes, four minutes, five minutes!

"Hm!"

In that instant, Qin Qi caught something in the dark; he watched Tang Jiaren's movements.

Judging by the direction of the muscle movements, Tang Jiaren was about to attack his heart.

But a voice of intuition in Qin Qi's heart told him that it was a feint—Tang Jiaren was going to attack his throat!

Qin Qi had no time to think; he chose to follow his intuition and launched a counterattack!

In a split second, Tang Jiaren's fist struck Qin Qi's throat, while the Poison Spike condensed on Qin Qi's fingers pierced Tang Jiaren's heart.

A draw!

"Hahahaha! Good lad, my Tang Sect has produced a genius, a genius seen only once in a century!"

Tang Jiaren laughed heartily, sitting cross-legged on the ground, unable to suppress the joy in his eyes.

"What draw? You clearly went easy on me."

"If you hadn't intentionally released a flicker of emotional fluctuation, how could I have seen through your intentions?"

Qin Qi also sat on the ground. He had learned a great deal from this battle, and what had improved the most was his insight.

During the final clash, Qin Qi was able to see Tang Jiaren's intentions because Tang Jiaren's emotions had shifted.

Through the Observation of Heart, Qin Qi had keenly captured this and acted upon it with precision.

"I am seventy-three years old this year, and I have been learning the Tang Sect Assassination Technique since I was a child; I have studied for decades."

"And you? How many days have you been initiated? To achieve such results in such a short time."

"You are worthy of the title of a genius seen only once in a century."

Tang Jiaren said with a smile.
