"This is my Gu Family’s inherited [Great North Dipper Snake Heart Hundred Refinement Method]."
When Gu Yeqi mentioned this, she carried a sense of pride, the invisible Qi around her immediately transformed into streams of white flowing energy, resembling dragons and snakes as she lifted them into the air. The snake-shaped Qi grasped nearby tools—some shovels, some hammers, some trowels, some carpentry rulers—making the girl appear like a thousand-armed deity with an extraordinary aura.
"And my Soul and Spirit Divine Abnormality is the [North Sky Pole] in this cultivation skill, meaning the North Pole Star. It should have been fully developed after the other four Divine Abnormalities, but completing it early has indeed made my control over the Seven Stars Hundred Refinement Qi Force more agile."
Saying this, Gu Yeqi’s gaze fell upon where the Qi Force hands were, and they began operating various tools as if they were real human hands. In just an instant, she mixed a batch of mortar and started laying bricks, showing that one person could take on the work of many.
Seeing this scene, An Jing’s eyes brightened—no wonder Gu Yeqi could manage the team so well; she alone was equivalent to half a squad, certainly garnering immense respect!
Moreover, such skills, if used in combat...
At this moment, Gu Yeqi continued demonstrating her cultivation skill: "As for the other four Divine Abnormalities, the [Ding Zhaoyao] of the heart and lungs, the [Chi Xuange] of the limbs’ flesh and blood, the [Zeng Kaiyang] of the meridians and Dantian, and the [Heavenly Piercing] of the spine, I have not begun cultivating them yet."
"No wonder it’s called Great North Dipper—although all related to the Big Dipper, they aren’t exactly the seven stars of the Big Dipper."
Upon hearing the name, An Jing confirmed that Gu Yeqi’s cultivation skill must be inherited from ancient martial secrets of the Immortal Path, similar to Bai Qinghan’s Xuanyin Secret Scripture.
Among them, the North Pole Star is the focal point guided by the Big Dipper, converging one’s mind.
Zhaoyao and Xuange are auxiliary stars—one enhances physical constitution, the other boosts strength—likely increasing the power and quantity of the Seven Stars Hundred Refinement Qi Force.
As for Kaiyang, it refers to one of the auxiliary stars of the Big Dipper, ’Death Omen Star,’ possibly enhancing the ’potency’ of the Seven Stars Hundred Refinement Qi Force.
Whereas ’Heavenly Piercing’ refers to another major star guided by the Big Dipper, which points to the Central Heavenly Royal Court. It is probably the central point of this Martial Vein Array Diagram, governing the entire field. Without a doubt, An Jing ascertained that Gu Yeqi’s invisible Qi Force likely originates from the nervous meridians in the spine!
When An Jing voiced his speculations, Gu Yeqi showed an expression of surprise and joy: "Oh my, Eldest Senior, you’ve got it all right! It’s just as Grandpa said!"
"Exactly, the Seven Stars Hundred Refinement Qi Force uses the spine as the seven stars, thereby extending to the Hundred Refinement Qi Force, controlling the Celestial Star Formation, transforming one’s body into a Star Mansion Azure Dragon!"
However, due to her inherent admiration, Gu Yeqi didn’t get overly excited: "As expected of Eldest Senior, I knew you would understand everything!"
"Haha, I not only understand it all, I even have figured out your future combat style!"
An Jing’s eyes sparkled at this moment—Gu Yeqi’s cultivation skill was simply too suitable for the ’Floating Weapons’ series!
Neither Huo Qing nor Nian Quan mastered it, and An Jing had been puzzled about where to derive his Floating Weapons combat system from. It turned out it should be this!
"Can you teach me this?"
When An Jing asked, Gu Yeqi recalled her grandfather’s warning ’This is a Gu Family’s unique skill passed down only through the male line, from one successor per generation. If the Gu Family doesn’t have just her left as the lone heir, she wouldn’t have had any chance to learn it.’
Then, she directly brushed it aside.
Gu Yeqi responded without hesitation: "Sure, when Eldest Senior has time, I’ll teach you everything!"
An Jing was also very pleased. The Great North Dipper Snake Heart Hundred Refinement Method of Gu Yeqi was indeed a high-level cultivation skill. Its origin was quite ancient, and while its power might appear average, its various effects were undoubtedly remarkable, providing much nourishment and resources for him!
But now was not the time for such thoughts. An Jing looked around at all the Children of Calamity still lying on the ground and proclaimed: "Don’t worry, I’ve brought Puppetry over. From now on, no one has to do hard labor. I’ll design a cultivation plan for everyone, so we can focus solely on cultivation and no longer need to mix mortar or clear land!"
Another round of cheers, turning the whole Mingguang Peak into a sea of joy.
However, just as An Jing was getting immersed in this joyous atmosphere.
Suddenly, from outside the peak, came a gentle female voice.
Someone spoke mid-air: [Are you Guangchen’s disciple, An Jing?]
An Jing turned his head to look at the night sky, now completely dark.
Then, his gaze slightly tightened.
For the visitor wasn’t anyone else, but one of the Bright Mirror Sect’s Nine Peak Masters, the Star Dawn Peak Master, Ye Po True Lord, who Ming Heguang had previously introduced to him!
Moreover, without a doubt, judging from the slightly nervous and expectant tone of Ye Po True Lord, it was clear that the relationship between his teacher and this True Lord...
An Jing suddenly felt a headache, thinking about the Northern Patrol Envoy Lin Yongye, thinking about Jin Yanhua, and now another Ye Po True Lord.
—Master, how many good sisters do you have?!
