S-Grade Spirit Nurturing Method: Storm Nurturing Sacred Spirit!

High above the border of Ying Province.

Two tiny, incredibly fast black shadows streaked across the azure sky, leaving long, thin white trails in their wake.

The Gale Force, though unable to cause any harm to Zuo Qingyu, made her mind wander.

The battle she had just witnessed replayed in her mind again and again.

Zuo Qingyu couldn't help but doubt her previous judgment.

She knew that there were differences between those at the Divine Mansion Realm because of the quality of their Divine Mansion.

But she never imagined that the gap between those at the Divine Mansion Realm could be so vast.

Peak Divine Mansion Realm and early stage of the Martial Infant Realm.

Although the two seem to differ by only one level, their actual combat capabilities are outrageously vast.

When Zuo Qingyu Peak Divine Mansion Realm, he could naturally achieve a crushing victory against opponents of the same level.

However, if she were to face a martial artist at the sixth level, even with her S-Grade Martial Arts Talent, the best she could hope for is a stalemate.

It's absolutely impossible to achieve the same level of complete suppression as Ye Li.

The reason for this is that the existence of Martial Infants can greatly enhance a martial artist's combat abilities.

The Martial Infant was nurtured within the Divine Mansion, making it a special being, and naturally possessing its own divine qualities.

When a martial artist is seated in the Divine Mansion, their martial arts speed, true qi output power, and Spiritual Platform perception will all be enhanced in all aspects, at least several times that of their Fifth-Tier Peak.

When the infant spirit left the Divine Mansion and merged into the physical body.

A martial artist's physical skills will be greatly enhanced, and their physical strength will increase accordingly. Their punching power can easily exceed hundreds of thousands of kilograms, and they will not be injured in the slightest when a building tens of meters high collapses.

Its physical strength far surpasses that of most metal ores. Combined with martial arts techniques, it can easily create a bottomless crater in a mountain with a single punch.

Therefore, even a martial artist at the early stage of the Martial Infant Realm, which is the sixth level, first or second stage, is not immune.

Against a martial artist at the Peak Divine Mansion Realm, they can usually achieve a complete numerical crushing victory.

However, like today, a Peak Divine Mansion Realm cultivator can quickly defeat a sixth-tier, second-level Martial Infant Realm cultivator in just two minutes...

This is truly unheard of.

Zuo Qingyu felt a bit tired; she felt somewhat defeated, to the point that her self-confidence was somewhat damaged.

I see. If someone is such a genius, they truly have great potential for development...

Zuo Qingyu pursed her lips slightly, her hair swaying in the wind, and asked casually:

"Are you feeling unwell anywhere?"

She could tell that Ye Li had used a secret technique of unknown depth, but she couldn't see any side effects.

He only rested for a short while before setting off, which meant he was ready to continue his journey.

Could it be that he's mastered even the basic Breathing Technique to perfection?

"No, everything is normal." Ye Li looked up and asked:

"By the way, are we just going straight back to Fengyun University? Aren't we going to challenge those Martial Arts University?"

Although there are around 120,000 Malice Points in the background, it is still far from enough to break through to the Sixth-Tier Peak.

Therefore, he didn't want to miss any suitable targets.

How do I get there?

Zuo Qingyu couldn't help but smile, glancing at the scenery below. "After they found out you Fifth-Tier Peak, they all refused to fight anymore and even wanted you to go to their school for Martial Dao exchange."

She seemed a little happy when the topic was brought up.

The pent-up frustration that had been building up in my heart for years melted away overnight, like spring snow.

A bunch of useless old fogies, all of them have put away their former smugness...

Indeed, the best way to shut others up is to be better than them in every way!

Zuo Qingyu was in a good mood, and with this momentum, she even managed to break through the long-standing bottleneck of the Eightfold Difficulty.

"Martial Dao exchange?"

Ye Li's curious voice interrupted Zuo Qingyu's thoughts, "Is it Exchange Competition?"

"... No, that's not true."

Zuo Qingyu composed herself, cleared her throat, and replied calmly:

"Simply put, you impart Martial Dao experience to their students, and in return, their school's teachers and principal will give you some guidance."

"For you, it's a thankless and exhausting job."

Zuo Qingyu said casually, "But don't worry, I've already turned them all down for you. Your guidance alone is enough."

"... That's true." Ye Li nodded slightly.

In matters like this, quality is far more important than quantity, and quantitative changes cannot lead to qualitative changes.

Just by looking at how the Hengshan Pavilion Master treated Zuo Qingyu, you can tell that she is quite a significant figure among those at the sixth rank.

Since a fight is not possible, there is no need for any Martial Dao exchange.

Ye Li didn't like to preach Great Dao to others.

Knowing too many people isn't something he's particularly happy about.

Speaking of which, Fengyun University will be starting soon...

Ye Li's thoughts wandered.

Soon, the two approached the territory of Fengyun University.

Flying and scaling walls are not allowed in Fengyun City, but if you fly high enough, it's okay.

After entering the territory of Fengyun University, the two slowly descended into the secluded Rear Mountain.

After his Divine Consciousness swept over the surrounding environment with overwhelming force,

Zuo Qingyu took out a Jade Slip emitting a soft blue light from the obviously unusual storage ring and tossed it straight to Ye Li.

"This is for you." The girl's clear voice drifted over, accompanied by the gentle rustling of the wind.

"This is..."

Ye Li was somewhat surprised as he reached out and took it. After opening it, the panel automatically displayed the relevant answers.

[S-Grade Spirit Nurturing Method: Storm Nurturing Sacred Spirit (Beginner)]

[Upgradeable]

"..."

Seeing the words appear on the panel, Ye Li's heart stirred slightly, and he subconsciously turned his head to look at Zuo Qingyu.

Although this was something the other party had promised, giving him such a valuable item so readily...

Aside from Jiang Qingzhu, whom I hadn't seen in a long time, there was only the girl in green standing before me.

To be honest, it really touched me.

"What? You don't think I'm going to back out, do you? Or do you think I'm going to drag this out and not give it to you?"

He seemed a little uncomfortable being stared at.

Zuo Qingyu tucked a slightly messy strand of hair behind her ear, tilted her head, and said softly, "I am not a teacher who goes back on his word; if I promise something, I will do it."

"That's true, Principal Zuo. If you were less arrogant, your reputation on campus would definitely rise several notches."

Ye Li put away the Jade Slip and said sincerely.

But Zuo Qingyu looked at her with a puzzled expression. "Tsundere? What's that?"

"... nothing."

Upon hearing this, Zuo Qingyu withdrew her gaze without much suspicion, and after a moment's thought, said, "Your Divine Mansion has been perfected. With a little preparation, you can begin cultivating the Spirit Nurturing Method."

"With your talent, you'll master [Storm City] in less than two days."

"Although this Spirit Nurturing Method is more profound and mysterious than the Divine Mansion Condensing Method, it probably won't be able to hold you off for long..."

At this point, a complex emotion flashed in Zuo Qingyu's eyes:

"Once you master the Spirit Nurturing Method, you will be able to nurture a Martial Infant of similar level to me, and then... you will be able to advance to the Martial Infant stage."

As she finished speaking, her voice trembled slightly, almost imperceptibly.

"I see."

Ye Li spoke calmly, cupping his hands in thanks, "Thank you very much Senior Zuo."

Zuo Qingyu waved his hand, indicating that he could go back and prepare. "I still need to wander around the Rear Mountain for a while before I need to find a Cave Abode to cultivate in seclusion."

"Come back to me when you have something major that you can't solve, or contact me after I emerge from seclusion."

"Alright." Ye Li nodded; he also planned to go back and add more points.

He thanked him again, turned and left, his slender figure quickly disappearing into the forest.

"..."

Zuo Qingyu stared at the spot where he had disappeared for a long time before turning her gaze back to her own fair and soft hands.

Immediately afterwards, she slowly closed her eyes and focused her mind on her Spiritual Platform.

Looking at the majestic golden Divine Mansion, she mobilized the vast azure Gale Force, attempting to condense the Divine Mansion again to improve its quality.

However, it is quite obvious.

The Divine Mansion, which has already been condensed, cannot be improved even slightly, let alone improved to the cyan-gold color.

"Oh..."

Zuo Qingyu lowered her eyes and gave a self-deprecating smile.

Without further hesitation, she turned and walked into the depths of the mountains, her feet treading on empty air, making no sound.

The creature in green swam among the mountains like a fish and quickly disappeared from sight.

A moment later, a clear, melodious voice could be faintly heard echoing through the mountains and forests:

"The wind whips up towering waves, but a smile is all that's needed, no need to worry..."

"Ye Li, I've taught you so much, can't you call me 'teacher'?"

The girl's voice didn't sound like she was asking a question, nor did it reveal any negative emotions; it was just tinged with a slight chuckle.
