Yang Zhen suddenly took a deep breath, squatted down, and placed one hand on the ground. Immediately, waves of spiritual energy emanated from the surrounding soil, like extremely subtle rivers that were almost imperceptible to the naked eye, rushing towards Yang Zhen's hand from all directions.
" Essence Condensation Technique?" Wan Jian was taken aback, and said with a strange expression, "What are you doing?"
The Essence Condensation Technique is a minor technique that every cultivator learns after entering the cultivation field. It allows them to locate the area with the most abundant spiritual energy in the surrounding world. It's a simple, basic technique that's often overlooked after a few uses.
Everyone, like Wan Jian, stared at Yang Zhen with a bewildered expression, wondering what Yang Zhen was trying to prove.
Yang Zhen didn't answer Wan Jian's question, but casually said, "Yes, the Essence Condensation Technique is a basic method that every cultivator can master. You've seen the effect. What if... this were added?"
Buzz!
An almost imperceptible buzzing sound erupted from Yang Zhen's hand, and countless subtle strands of Yang Zhen and earth energy around him instantly changed color.
" The Essence Discrimination Instruction?"
Everyone was even more bewildered, including the Palace Master of the Jade Holy Palace and Elder Jian. Everyone craned their necks, looking completely dumbfounded.
What can this do?
"Add this to the mix!" Yang Zhen chuckled, his hand suddenly freezing in mid-air!
boom!
A muffled sound rang out, and the ground beneath Yang Zhen's hands immediately began to churn, gradually forming a vivid and lifelike landscape.
" Earth Vein Technique?"
The Essence Discrimination Instruction and the Earth Vein Technique are both the most basic methods, but no one expected that Yang Zhen would be able to combine them and create a map of Eaglefall Cliff under his command.
Just as everyone was looking on in confusion, a very obvious purple river of energy appeared on the Eaglefall Cliff terrain map, pointing directly to a large mountain.
Mount Sumeru!
Elder Jian and Jade Holy Palace both exclaimed in surprise and stood up abruptly.
"Impossible!"
"How is this possible?"
The two looked at each other, their eyes filled with bewilderment, clearly shocked by Yang Zhen.
Especially the Palace Master of the Jade Holy Palace, who said with a strange expression, "Even for us, finding Mount Sumeru in Eaglefall Cliff is an extremely difficult task, and we even need the Sumeru Seal to guide us. How could Yang Zhen possibly find it through such simple three minor techniques?"
"Could it be that Yang Zhen already knew about this place?" Elder Jian asked, looking bewildered.
"Knowing doesn't help!" The Palace Master of the Jade Holy Palace was completely bewildered. She took a deep breath and said, " Elder Jian also knows about the existence of Mount Sumeru, but if I don't give you the Sumeru Seal, can you find it?"
"What a joke!" Elder Jian glared and said, "The earth's veins in Eaglefall Cliff are incredibly varied. I've tried more than once, and I simply can't pinpoint the location of Mount Sumeru. That's why your Holy Lord said that anyone who can enter Mount Sumeru is Heaven-Favored Person. But... what's going on with Yang Zhen?"
The three people Jade Holy Palace all looked completely bewildered, while everyone on the Cloud Terrace erupted in chaos.
"This Yang Zhen actually managed to find Mount Sumeru using this method?"
"Is this fake? Could it be that Yang Zhen obtained the Holy Lord's Sumeru Seal?"
"Impossible! The Holy Lord has never even met Yang Zhen, so how could he bestow such a precious treasure as the Sumeru Seal upon Yang Zhen?"
"How did Yang Zhen find Mount Sumeru?"
"Isn't there a map?"
"Even a map won't work. The inner veins of Eaglefall Cliff are constantly changing, and no map can mark them. Even if a map is drawn in advance, it's impossible to find the location of Mount Sumeru through the map. The Jade Pool Holy Land has tried this method countless times."
"But what if we could create a terrain like Eaglefall Cliff anytime, anywhere?"
"Like Yang Zhen? Damn it, Yang Zhen might actually have solved a major problem for the Jade Pool Holy Land."
The old woman stared blankly at the ever-changing terrain map in Yang Zhen's hand, then suddenly stood up and shouted, "Quickly, go and invite the Holy Lord!"
Many disciples of the Jade Pool Holy Land scrambled towards the Holy Temple, while Old Man Chi and the others looked utterly bewildered, their eyes flashing with suspicion and uncertainty. They secretly turned to look at the white-bearded elder and asked, "Have you learned it yet?"
"These are just a few simple techniques, how could anyone not learn them? But... how could they be used like this?"
"This Yang Zhen is truly a prodigy."
"Then what he just mentioned about the foundation?"
"After we return, you will all diligently practice the basic techniques for me."
Upon hearing this, the group of people behind Old Man Chi immediately wailed, their eyes blazing with fury as they stared at Yang Zhen Yang Zhen, wishing they could strangle him to death.
Damn it, why did you have to lecture Wan Jian like that? Now look what's happened! Countless basic techniques, when will this ever end?
"Quickly, go and invite the Holy Lord!"
The Palace Master of the Jade Holy Palace addressed the disciples at the door, then her expression changed. She said, "No, I'll go myself. No, I still need to keep an eye on Yang Zhen. You all go and inform the Holy Lord immediately that the method to find Mount Sumeru has been found."
Seeing the panic on the face of the Palace Master of the Jade Holy Palace, Elder Jian's expression became extremely strange. He muttered to himself, "This kid is truly Heaven-Favored Person."
The Palace Master of the Jade Holy Palace smiled wryly and said, "I lost my composure. I just never expected that the matter that has troubled my Jade Pool Holy Land for ten thousand years could be solved by such simple three basic methods. This is truly... truly..."
"Have we really overlooked the wondrous uses of basic techniques?" the Third Holy Maiden suddenly asked.
The Palace Master of the Jade Holy Palace and Elder Jian were both taken aback, and said with strange expressions, "That's possible!"
Inside Eaglefall Cliff, Wan Jian stared at Yang Zhen in shock, exclaiming, "How did you do that?"
Yang Zhen waved his hand and said, "Don't get excited, it's just basic stuff. I told you, your understanding of basic techniques is still too shallow."
Seeing Yang Zhen's nonchalant expression, Wan Jian took a deep breath and said, "Compared to us, you are truly the Heaven-Favored Person."
Yang Zhen curled his lip and muttered, "What 'Heaven-Favored Person'? This 'Sage of Saunter' is the Child of Heaven and Earth, okay? My own flesh and blood!"
You guys really think this off-the-charts talent of mine is just a joke?
Even if Yang Zhen didn't possess the Heavenly Book: Profound Principles Chapter and the Earth Treasury Chapter, Yang Zhen could still deduce the location of that special place at Eaglefall Cliff through the vast mathematical knowledge of my Blue Planet.
Seeing that Wan Jian was completely stunned, Yang Zhen was quite satisfied with his performance. He picked up the tea that Wan Jian hadn't finished drinking and downed it in one gulp. Under Wan Jian's bewildered expression, he quickly tidied himself up, stood up, and said, "Let's go. We might run into that crazy woman, Yue Yazi, on the way."
Hearing Yang Zhen address Yue Yazi, Wan Jian gave a wry smile. Just as he was about to speak, his expression suddenly changed, and he asked in surprise, "Leave? You're leaving?"
"Yes, how can we find that place if we don't leave?"
Yang Zhen looked puzzled. He had initially thought that whoever had the most tokens would win, but now it seemed that the Jade Pool Holy Land had quite a few fancy things to offer. How would he know what to do next if he didn't find that special place?
They had to leave this place. As for the Saint-level array plate and the small amount of explosives buried here, they were nothing to Yang Zhen. Besides, it wasn't a waste. Who knew if he would come back here in a few days? They couldn't just leave them here. He could always find a way to use them again.
Yang Zhen felt it was only natural to leave, which startled Wan Jian. Wan Jian looked at Yang Zhen with a strange expression and pointed to the array plates on the ground, saying, "Are these array plates just going to be wasted here?"
Once the array plate forms a grand array, it cannot be retrieved. It is a one-time use item. Even for a disciple of a prestigious family like Wan Jian, it is too wasteful to have only a few people from Grievance-Dissolving Valley killed by it.
Everyone below the Heaven-Observing Mirror was completely dumbfounded.
From any perspective, Yang Zhen would only be safe within the Heaven and Earth Grand Array throughout Eaglefall Cliff. Yet, Yang Zhen is actually leaving?
Is Yang Zhen always this free-spirited in his actions?
