Improving Control

"Your Highness, please don't say that! Fei'er is just a maidservant who serves Your Highness!"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Yufei shook her head nervously, saying, "It is Fei'er honor that you are willing to let Fei'er overhear these secrets!"

There's no such thing as waiting a long time! You're making Fei'er feel so Fei'er!

Without dwelling on that, and too lazy to change locations, Yin Yunze looked at Zhang Yufei and said, "Actually, I called you here because I wanted you to teach me the martial arts you've learned again."

"So that's what it was about!"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Yufei didn't seem to think anything of it and immediately replied, "Your Majesty, the internal energy Fei'er practice is the Cloud and Water Instruction— "

Facing Yin Yunze, Zhang Yufei naturally wouldn't treat him like the little witches, letting him build a foundation for a few months first. Instead, she directly revealed the most essential internal skills in their entirety.

It was as if he had been given a new body and a new mind. This time, with the help of the Power of Incense Offerings, Yin Yunze immediately understood the essence of the Cloud and Water Instruction that Zhang Yufei was talking about, as she recited it.

Even as Zhang Yufei was still reciting, Yin Yunze felt a surge of energy within his body, which then began to grow at a rate that would astound ordinary martial artists.

Zhang Yufei recited a section almost verbatim, and by the time she finished, Yin Yunze had also completed his cultivation practice.

"According to my master, this Cloud and Water Instruction can be cultivated to the Innate Realm, at which point it will have other wondrous uses."

Upon hearing Zhang Yufei's words, Yin Yunze silently sensed that his internal energy had broken through from Innate Postnatal, and that he had formed a connection with the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi.

"This is a bit too much of a cheating ----"

To be honest, because it was too easy, Yin Yunze didn't feel a sense of reality.

However, the Innate energy flowing continuously and autonomously within his body indicates that Yin Yunze has indeed become a master of Innate skill as described by martial arts practitioners.

However, after thinking about it, Yin Yunze realized that this was not something that was incomprehensible.

After all, compared to becoming a master of Innate level, Yin Yunze could easily unleash a blizzard that would cover an entire city by using the Authority over Frost and Snow.

While Innate masters are indeed extraordinary, under the Authority over Frost and Snow, they are nothing more than small fry who freeze to death no matter how many come.

To put it another way, it would be somewhat shameful for a deity to not make this level of progress in cultivating mortal martial arts.

Although Yin Yunze mocked himself, this body was a product of demonic remnants.

But no matter what, even the remnants of Innate Holy Spirit are incomparable to ordinary mortals.

The Postnatal goal of those who have mastered the acquired arts is to transform their Postnatal into their Innate, using their internal energy to connect with the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi.

However, Yin Yunze could easily manipulate the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi when he summoned Zhao Wan's Spirit Descent.

Not only can Yin Yunze use it himself, but he can also seal the skill within characters and give it to any ordinary person.

To the average person, breaking through Innate is nothing compared to characters.

It can only be said that, as a god, Yin Yunze started from an extremely high position.

So-called martial arts prodigies, the ultimate goal they can reach in their entire lives is merely to touch the starting point of Yin Yunze becoming a god.

After thinking about it, Yin Yunze decided not to show off this in front of Zhang Yufei.

After all, showing off this is somewhat like showing off your multiplication and division skills in front of someone who can only do addition and subtraction within 100.

Now that the internal strength had been mastered, Yin Yunze simply had Zhang Yufei demonstrate the lightness skill Flowing Smoke Steps, Net Cloud Palm, and the Eighteen Styles of Returning Wind Saber that had not been demonstrated before.

With his new body possessing truly divine talent, coupled with the Power of Incense Offerings to aid his understanding and learning, Yin Yunze could be said to have achieved photographic memory and mastery of light-footed skills, palm techniques, and sword techniques instantly.

The whole process took only an hour, but Yin Yunze truly transformed from an ordinary person who knew nothing into a master with no Innate combat experience.

However, it was only after actually learning these light-body techniques and palm strikes that Yin Yunze realized that her previous thoughts were somewhat biased.

Of course, even if these martial arts skills are cultivated to their ultimate level, they would only be enough to reach Yin Yunze's starting point.

However, in terms of energy utilization, it far surpasses Yin Yunze's crude use.

For example, Yin Yunze can try his best to maximize the effect of his skills or authority.

But in reality, its utilization rate is similar to using gasoline to start a fire.

It looks quite useful, but it's actually a huge waste.

Although martial arts were created by mortals, it is precisely because they are created by mortals that their energy utilization rate is extremely high. Compared to Yin Yunze's rudimentary use, it is like the energy utilization rate of an internal combustion engine for gasoline.

Although its power is not high, its utilization rate is unmatched by Yin Yunze.

The two differences are: martial arts, though an internal combustion engine, only require a cup of gasoline; while Yin Yunze, though wasting resources by burning them, is burning a whole lake of gasoline.

The difference in scale cannot be compensated for by this level of utilization.

In terms of sheer power, the martial arts taught by Zhang Yufei were not even as effective as the incomplete Animal Realm scroll that the Little Fox Girl had given to Yin Yunze.

After all, the Dragon-Elephant Strength can grant an ordinary person strength that even a master of Innate cultivation might not possess.

But just like Yin Yunze who wields the power of skills, he simply overwhelms others with numerical superiority.

Martial arts, being a mechanic-driven system, are naturally overwhelmed by the numerical monsters of immortal Immortal Dao Divine Dao.

However, if the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi consumed by the Dragon-Elephant Strength is converted into Innate internal force, it can achieve a destructive effect more than ten times that of the Dragon-Elephant Strength.

Moreover, it was precisely because of the use of this mechanism that Yin Yunze gained even greater inspiration.

Through the Power of Incense Offerings and calculations of these martial arts techniques, Yin Yunze's understanding of skills and authority is also rapidly improving.

Whether it was an hour or two, Yin Yunze finally snapped out of his sudden realization.

It can only be said that theory and practice are indeed worlds apart.

Yin Yunze had previously learned about these Cultivation Method, but he hadn't been able to successfully cultivate them, so Yin Yunze remained only at the level of understanding.

However, after this cultivation advancement, although what Yin Yunze possessed remained the same, he had moved from simply using it to mastering it.

If he were to face the Third Prison Warden, relying solely on his Authority over Frost and Snow, he might still not be able to win, but at least he wouldn't be chased around helplessly like before, to the point of having to fight desperately.

The improvement was so significant that even Yin Yunze couldn't help but feel fortunate.

Fortunately, Yin Yunze's interest in martial arts remained, and he did not become disdainful of it just because he became a god.

Otherwise, we would have truly wasted such a golden opportunity for advancement.

"Fei'er, I have the Frost Instruction here; remember it well."

Since he had gained something, Yin Yunze naturally wouldn't treat Zhang Yufei, his guide, unfairly.

First, he recited the Cloud and Water Instruction Technique and combined with the Authority over Frost and Snow Proud Cold Instruction, to Zhang Yufei.

Upon hearing the contents of the Proud Cold Instruction, Zhang Yufei, already a genius girl, instantly understood that it was a far more refined internal skill than the Cloud and Water Instruction. Subconsciously, she began to cultivate the Frost Instruction according to what Yin Yunze had taught her.

What surprised Zhang Yufei even more was that the Proud Cold Instruction did not reject the Cloud and Water Instruction. Instead, it naturally transformed the ordinary internal energy of the Cloud and Water Instruction into the icy internal energy of the Frost Instruction.

While Zhang Yufei was practicing the Frost Formula, Yin Yunze also reached out and supported Zhang Yufei 'Zhang Yufei back, channeling his Frost Technique energy into her body.

"Your Majesty, what's wrong?"

Zhang Yufei was both surprised and delighted to sense Yin Yunze's incredibly pure Innate icy internal energy.

"Calm your mind and cultivate!"

While telling Zhang Yufei not to be distracted and to focus on her cultivation, Yin Yunze thought for a moment and then transformed his own Frost Inner Force into Zhang Yufei's inner force through the way that the gods bestowed it upon believers.

This method, however, has a higher conversion rate than Yin Yunze's direct manual input.

However, compared to Yin Yunze's smooth and effortless success, even with Yin Yunze's help, Zhang Yufei, this genius girl, still encountered some stumbles.

It took Zhang Yufei nearly ten times longer than Yin Yunze to break through to the Innate Realm.

Of course, what seemed slow to Yin Yunze was as fast as a dream to Zhang Yufei!

"Your Majesty! I've reached the Innate!" Zhang Yufei murmured unconsciously, then immediately realized what she had done and looked at Yin Yunze nervously. "Your Majesty, you expended so much internal energy to help me reach the Innate, you wouldn't—"

Before Zhang Yufei could react, Yin Yunze flicked her forehead and said irritably, "I'm supposed to be a deity, and you're already causing problems just because I'm trying to boost your strength? Isn't that a bit too shameful of me to be a deity!"

Yin Yunze's words were not wrong. After all, even if Zhang Yufei's internal energy was raised to the Innate, it would only amount to about ten Expel Evil and Dispel Filth if converted into Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi.

With the current total amount of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi in the Clear Creek Basin, Yin Yunze could do dozens more times in one go if he wanted!

In fact, if it weren't for safety reasons, Yin Yunze could have simply bestowed all of his Frost Inner Force upon Zhang Yufei as a divine gift.

However, at that time, it was uncertain whether Zhang Yufei would be able to break through using this, or whether she would simply be frozen into an ice block by this frost-like internal force.

Moreover, the Frost Force bestowed by Yin Yunze has another advantage: it will not produce any drawbacks such as affecting subsequent cultivation and improvement.

After all, no matter how others improve or transform their internal energy, it's still a different kind of internal force.

However, Yin Yunze 'Yin Yunze gift directly transformed his internal energy into the internal energy of the recipient.

In fact, not only Yin Yunze, but any other god could do this if they wanted to.

Of course, apart from Yin Yunze, probably no other deity would be so bored.

To be precise, no deity would condescend to personally create an Innate master who is of little use.

To reiterate, even a master of Innate strength is somewhat insignificant in the face of Orthodox God like Yin Yunze who wields power.

As a deity, directly taking the other party as a follower and then bestowing authority upon them is far simpler and more reliable than creating Innate masters through this method.

After all, once transformed into a master of Innate level, these internal energy deities cannot be reclaimed. However, authority can be recalled with a mere thought of the deity, and the general can be returned to their original form.

In terms of both safety and convenience, these god-created masters seem like inferior substitutes for servants.

Even with a combination of Innate skilled expert and a follower, the setup feels somewhat repetitive and doesn't offer any significant advantage.

Most importantly, don't forget that above the followers, there are also the Subordinate Deity.

Even a dual-class official is no match for Subordinate Deity, the highest-ranking subordinate.

Only Yin Yunze isn't the kind of god who's willing to do things personally, things that seem to have little reward.

However, Yin Yunze did not plan to immediately improve the strength of the other eleven little witches.

After all, the young witches are still very young and their foundations are too weak. Forcing them to improve would be like a child wielding an axe, hurting both themselves and others.

At the very least, Zhang Yufei should be given several years to hone her skills and mature before bestowing this power upon her.

However, since Sun Qin is an adult, Yin Yunze can bestow this power upon her.

Sun Qin had previously humbled herself to seek advice from Zhang Yufei, but she left disappointed because of her age, just like Yin Yunze at the time.

Now that this method is available, Yin Yunze can satisfy Sun Qin's thirst for force.

Speaking of which, it's been a long time since Yin Yunze rewarded Sun Qin.

With this in mind, Yin Yunze took the opportunity to pass on his improved lightness skills, palm techniques, and sword techniques to Zhang Yufei.

With a somewhat morbid sense of humor, Yin Yunze named these techniques Wind God Leg, Cloud-Dispelling Palm, and Six Proud Cold Techniques.

After spending a considerable amount of time having Zhang Yufei memorize everything, Yin Yunze instructed her to teach the other young witches well before letting Zhang Yufei leave.

After sensing Sun Qin's presence briefly, Yin Yunze realized she was still busy, so he didn't disturb her directly.

After thinking for a moment, Yin Yunze simply took out the six ownerless Dark Heavenly Lightning Flag.

While using the Incense Offering Artifact Refining Method to refine these Dark Heavenly Lightning Flag, Yin Yunze waited for Xu Hanxian's arrival.

However, Yin Yunze waited in vain for Xu Hanxian. Instead, he saw Peng Shulan come over alone.
