Afterwards, you can enhance the power of this body and divine thought through repair, thus avoiding the problem of seeking a corpse in the First Realm."
Profound Yellow? Mo Luo? Song Yan’s pupils slightly contracted, then he said, "Master Xiao, I’m leaving now."
Xiao Shuyu said, "Go ahead."
Song Yan’s thoughts stirred, his entire body went limp, and a flawless silver-haired Divine Soul emerged from within.
Although Xiao Shuyu covered his eyes and locked his Divine Sense, he had other ways to perceive his disciple, and at this moment he could see such a pure and flawless scene. The corners of his lips couldn’t help but curl slightly, feeling a sense of closeness, and the previous small prejudice of "disciples need to rely on Hungry Ghost Dao techniques to devour people" vanished, saying with a faint smile, "Quite similar to myself."
Song Yan said, "Disciples being like their master, isn’t it only natural?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Shuyu understood that the disciple before him had a bit of "slick talk," but he couldn’t help but feel an inexplicable joy.
Elsewhere, a body half golden and half ink-black had already landed on Song Yan.
Instant transformation...
A youth stood before Xiao Shuyu, with eyes reflecting golden hints, and long black hair resembling ink willow.
Song Yan was very satisfied with this body.
He had already sensed the two Talisman Characters inherent in this body.
One was Wrath, which could instantly convert others’ goodwill and compassion into evil thoughts and murderous intent, thereby directly backfiring;
One was Silence, causing oneself to enter a peculiar meditation state while absorbing all surrounding power, thus becoming invulnerable, even if killed, he would quickly undergo Nirvana Rebirth and descend once more, truly an "ultimate version" of the Vajra Indestructible Body.
Song Yan wondered if he encountered this "Corpse Buddha," he could only pray that he could escape. Thus, he could truly sense the terrors of the Celestial Wondrous Sword Palace and... the fearsome aspects of this Great Thousand Worlds.
Suddenly, his heart moved, as he noticed that something restless within him seemed to quiet down a bit. The "Wrath" and "Silence," two Talisman Characters brought by Divine Thought and the body, calmed it down.
This pointed him in a direction.
In case that thing happened to be "Wa," then...he could at least suppress it by becoming stronger and comprehending more Talisman Characters.
Xiao Shuyu naturally didn’t know what he was thinking and said, "Your illusion of Hungry Ghost Dao technique, though not as direct as other Hungry Ghost Dao methods, its effect is indeed decent. It can even retain the Talisman Characters comprehended by the original body. However, today I am teaching you the application of Celestial Dao talent."
Song Yan respectfully saluted.
Xiao Shuyu said, "Celestial Dao talent is essentially the power of false heaven.
For example, take Di Cunxin, whom you know. That lad comprehended the ’Introduction’ character. This character can draw the surrounding Five Elements Qi, Divine Soul, and even Divine Thought.
Yet, that’s all."
Song Yan was bewildered, saying, "This... is that all?"
Xiao Shuyu said, "The idea is too humble, like a frog at the bottom of a well."
Song Yan said, "I ask Master Xiao for guidance."
Xiao Shuyu said, "Let me ask you, can a single ’Introduction’ character only draw the surrounding Qi?"
Song Yan said, "Yes."
Xiao Shuyu said, "Is this surrounding Qi confined to a single world?"
Song Yan said, "Yes."
Xiao Shuyu said, "Even if you draw the power of a mere world, what good would it do? Like a frog in a well not knowing the grandeur of heaven, it only believes that drawing all surrounding power is invincible. Actually...it’s not."
The moment the words "it’s not" fell, Xiao Shuyu suddenly rose without wind, his flowing white cloud robe resembling blooming lotus, his fingers lightly together, pointing to the firmament, chanting incantations, a powerful force inexplicably gathered.
Yet, this gathered force was definitely not from the surroundings.
Song Yan didn’t even sense any Profound Qi fluctuations in the Clear Bamboo Mountain Secret Realm.
The gathering continued.
About the time of two incense sticks later, a terrifyingly destructive dark blue light coalesced at the clean white fingertips.
Song Yan looked at the dark blue light in astonishment, and for a moment he didn’t dare to breathe because he could sense that in the face of this power, not to mention the Secret Realm, even a whole world was extremely fragile.
Comparing finger to world, which was strong and which was weak was evident at a glance.
Yet now Song Yan understood that this finger, with a light point on any world, would cause it to shatter like foam, not to mention worlds, even his first master Wang Youquan would be directly blasted to death.
However, Song Yan also noticed that Xiao Shuyu took a full two incense sticks’ time to gather this power.
Does this mean... the stronger the Celestial Dao talent, the longer the "Casting Animation"?
Xiao Shuyu seemed to know his thoughts and questions, her fingers dispersed, and the dark blue light disappeared as if it had never been there. She floated down, her skirt gathering, then said, "What I comprehended as my Lifebound Talisman is the ’Shu’ character, allowing me to utilize the power of the seven stars in the Extreme North Star Realm of the Great Thousand World, hence the time taken for two incense sticks. In actual combat, aided by Secret Techniques, it can be much faster.
Celestial Dao is pseudo heavenly power, acting as heaven. With your talent, you may cultivate the Magic Techniques.
Not to mention anything else, that ’Silence’ character on your Corpse Buddha body, if it could absorb not only surrounding power but Star Domain power, then...it would be indestructible."
Song Yan genuinely felt opened to new perspectives, he respectfully asked, "Master Xiao, how much faster is much faster?"
Xiao Shuyu said, "It can shorten the time by half."
Song Yan said, "Then it would only take one incense stick’s time, hmm... hmm..."
He didn’t know what else to say, quickly changing the topic, saying, "I would like Master Xiao to grant me the Cultivation Method."
Xiao Shuyu lightly pointed his finger, and a Jade Scroll appeared in the void, then it swept towards Song Yan.
