Chapter 5: The Secret of the Heavenly Book!
This wordless heavenly book was not unfamiliar to Yi Chen, it was the one that knocked him unconscious back then!
However, at the time of his birth, the heavenly book did not appear with him. Instead, it was discovered by Yi Chen when he climbed onto the rooftop to stargaze out of boredom, and found that the heavenly book was stuck firmly on the roof.
It was also because of the appearance of the heavenly book that Yi Chen suspected whether it was the heavenly book that brought him to this world, because this heavenly book had a kind of flesh-and-blood connection with him, as if it were a part of Yi Chen's body.
For so many years, Yi Chen has been exploring this heavenly book, but it hasn't had any reaction, looking just like an ordinary book.
"At first, if it weren't for the Heavenly Book's reason, I wouldn't have received a First-Class Beast Soul and been labeled as mediocre." Yi Chen muttered to himself, flipping through the pages of the Heavenly Book.
Actually, Yi Chen's acceptance of the first-level beast soul has a great deal to do with the Heavenly Book.
The soul of a dead demon beast retains a special instinct, which chooses its master based on the talent of the inheritor. Only those with extremely strong cultivation talent will be chosen by high-level beast souls.
Yi Chen clearly remembered that at first, an eighth-level beast soul had flown towards him, ready to merge with him.
The eighth-level beast soul is the highest level of beast soul in the Yi family's inheritance, and since the establishment of the Yi family, only one person has successfully merged with it, that being Yi Chen's father.
Yi Chen also knew the power of the eighth-level beast soul, so he gladly accepted it and merged with it. But just as he was about to leave with a happy heart, something unexpected happened.
The heavenly book that had always been carried by him suddenly reacted and began to tremble constantly, releasing dazzling golden light.
Then in a remote corner of the inheritance boundary, a colorful object suddenly flew out and rushed into the dantian before Yi Chen could react, swallowing that eighth-level beast soul!
That's right, it was devouring, taking over Yi Chen's eighth-level beast soul. And the color also started to change, becoming the most ordinary white, which is a first-level beast soul.
"It's really freaking hellish, such a ridiculously powerful thing is actually just a first-grade beast soul?" Thinking back to the events of that day, Yi Chen couldn't help but blurt out a curse.
But in fact, it was right before his eyes, although he very much hoped that the beast soul would undergo a mutation, but the miracle never appeared.
Although it was so, Yi Chen still held a glimmer of hope, after all the strange phenomenon that occurred on that day was not simple. So he did not make a fuss, silently enduring the pressure brought by mediocrity.
"I don't know if it was the Heavenly Book playing tricks on me just now." Muttering to himself, Yi Chen flipped open the Heavenly Book, and in the middle, there was only a golden sheet of paper.
Everything was as usual, but Yi Chen's eyes were attracted to the golden paper, and his pupils began to enlarge, as if he had seen a ghost! Because there was a complete pattern on the paper!
"Isn't this the pulse diagram of the Three Treasures Soul Technique?"
This golden paper, Yi Chen had flipped through it countless times, he was certain that such a meridian diagram had never appeared before. Especially this meridian diagram, which was the perfected Three Treasures Soul Technique.
It's even more impossible to add it temporarily, Yi Chen had used a knife to cut the golden paper before, but that sharp big knife didn't leave any scratches on the golden paper until it broke.
"What just happened seems to be really related to the Heavenly Book after all."
Yi Chenke is not a fool, and he made such a judgment after considering all the factors. What puzzles him is that the usually quiet Tian Shu reacted and even helped him perfect his incomplete soul technique.
"Was it impossible to trigger the Heavenly Book without a medium?" Although he knew that the Heavenly Book was no ordinary object, Yi Chen didn't know how to use it and could only stare blankly.
However, since the Heavenly Book has reacted, it means that it can be used. So, Yi Chen began to recall what he had done earlier.
"Could it be that he saw the incomplete meridian chart?" After a moment of careful consideration, Yi Chen turned his head to look at the Soul Control Meridian Chart that he had casually discarded, and exclaimed in surprise.
"Why don't you try it out." To verify his own idea, Yi Chen turned to look at Tian Shu while trying hard to recall the incomplete Cloud Soul Technique meridian chart.
Yi Chen concentrated his mind and stared intently at the piece of paper, afraid of missing every detail.
Time trickled away, and after half an hour, Yi Chen felt his eyes getting sour, but that golden paper still didn't make a single move.
"Isn't it?" Blinking his sore and swollen eyes, Yi Chen looked extremely unwilling, but just as he was about to give up, the pattern on the golden paper suddenly changed.
"It actually moved." Yi Chen, who had been paying close attention to the paper's situation, naturally discovered the anomaly. A faint golden light emanated from the Heavenly Book.
At the same time, the originally intact meridian diagram became a defective one, and a golden thread began to slowly extend, eventually filling in the missing parts of the meridian diagram.
This strange scene appeared right under Yichens eyes. The facial muscles illuminated by the golden light began to twitch, and Yichen could feel his heart beating faster.
A flash of excitement appeared in his eyes, if he wasn't mistaken, Yi Chen had finally discovered the use of the Heavenly Book!
"Why don't we try using Soul Technique again?" Although he already had a grasp on it in his mind, Yi Chen decided to try once more to verify the remaining half percent.
Soul technique is a fighting skill that every soul cultivator must possess, and only by cultivating soul techniques can one mobilize their soul power to fight. If one has soul power but no soul technique, it's like being a toothless tiger.
A powerful soul technique can enhance the combat capabilities of a soul cultivator. Its ranking is divided into nine grades, just like soul techniques, each grade has three levels: lower, middle and upper. The lowest level is the worst, while the highest level is the best.
At first, Yi Chen learned a second-rate superior soul skill - Frenzied Wind Leg before leaving the Yi family, so he prepared to use this soul skill to try and see if the Heavenly Book would react.
He rubbed his sore eyes, and Yi Chen lightly spat out a mouthful of turbid air, clearing the distractions from his mind. He then began to recall the movements of the Divine Wind Leg, not missing a single detail.
"Hush."
The result did not disappoint Yi Chen, and this time he didn't have to wait long either. The meridian diagram printed on the golden paper suddenly disappeared.
The scene in front of him hadn't changed, Yi Chen was still in the real world, but there was a golden small figure with an unclear face floating on the golden paper.
"Hmm."
That little golden man began to move under Yichens gaze, and it lifted its leg. A visible white energy enveloped its right leg, and then its waist suddenly turned, with its right foot sweeping out like a thunderbolt. That one kick was extremely swift, just like a gust of wind blowing by.
The golden little man kept making moves, each move was so natural, without any stiffness, as if merged with the heaven and earth.
"The ultimate realm of Whirlwind Legs: Moving like a whirlwind, still as a mountain." Looking at the small figure's constantly jumping shadow, Yi Chen recalled the introduction to Whirlwind Legs.
Yi Chen had been practicing the Windy Legs skill for some time, but he still couldn't truly grasp its meaning. Now, after watching the Golden Dwarf's demonstration, he suddenly felt enlightened.
However, as Yi Chen carefully observed the movements of the golden little man, he discovered that something was off. The movements of the golden little man seemed to have some discrepancies with the original leg techniques recorded by Kuang Feng Tui.
Many small movements have been added to it, which were not introduced in the original Whirlwind Kick. However, after adding those small movements, the power of Whirlwind Kick has become stronger and more coherent.
"After some modifications, the power of Whirlwind Kick is actually comparable to a mid-tier 3rd-grade soul technique!" After watching Jin's consecutive movements, Yi Chen's face flashed with astonishment, and he couldn't believe it.
He didn't expect that the Heavenly Book could not only perfect his Soul Technique, but also perfect his Soul Skill. Moreover, after being perfected, the power of his Soul Skill had become even stronger!
Originally, Kamaitachi had only a second-rate power, but the Heavenly Book modified a few small movements and it directly became a third-rate medium soul technique!
His face flushed with excitement, Yi Chen's hands couldn't help but tremble slightly. He had a faint intuition that the Heavenly Book, with its incredible effects, would become a great help to him in the future!
It took a long time for Yi Chen's excited mood to calm down, and his eyes stared at the golden little man who kept stretching out and retracting his legs, with a fierce light flashing in his eyes.
Soul techniques are very important for soul cultivators, so Yi Chen carefully observed the movements of the golden little man, remembering every subtle movement in his mind.
"Huff, huff." About half an hour later, a kicking sound echoed in the room, extremely fierce, as if filled with resentment and anger. Still as a mountain, moving like thunder!
