Chapter 169: The Righteous Heart of Chi Zheng
The cultivation of the Nine Revolutions of the Mysterious Merit is to use a vast amount of spiritual energy to dissolve the cultivator's skeleton and flesh, and then use the spiritual energy to strengthen them repeatedly. Yang Feng entered the state of cultivation with a sudden realization in his heart, although it felt like only a very short period of time had passed, but actually another whole month had already passed.
Yang Feng clearly felt the strength of his body and the power that was a million times stronger than before in that moment of clarity, which made Yang Feng extremely excited, secretly sighing that the pain he had endured during this period was worth it. After Yang Feng finished inspecting the situation inside his body, he opened his eyes to see Chi standing right in front of him, staring at him with wide eyes, and quickly got up.
"Have you reached the Turning Boundary?!?" Chi Zheng asked Yang Feng, his tone carrying a hint of excitement, but more so an expression of disbelief.
Yang Feng looked at Chi Zheng's appearance, a hint of a proud smile on his face, and then said to Chi Zheng, "Grandfather, I'm really talented, right? I've already mastered the Nine Turns Xuan Gong in just two practices. You said it was so difficult to practice, but I think it's not that hard at all!"
Chī Zhèng was speechless after hearing Yang Feng's words. Is the Nine Turns of the Mysterious Skill really not difficult to practice?! If this were said in the ancient times, it would definitely be criticized by countless people! In the ancient times, every single member of the Wu tribe could practice the Nine Turns of the Mysterious Skill, but those who could cultivate it to a high level were extremely rare. The powerful beings of other tribes could easily obtain the techniques of the Nine Turns of the Mysterious Skill from the Wu tribe, but they could only use it as a reference. As for actually cultivating it, that was absolutely impossible!
The Nine Turns of the Mysterious Merit is a technique specifically prepared for the Wu tribe, and only those with the Wu tribe's bloodline can cultivate it. This makes it impossible for people from other tribes to cultivate even if they obtain the Nine Turns of the Mysterious Merit. Even among the Wu tribe, who can cultivate the Nine Turns of the Mysterious Merit without going through tens of thousands of years of cultivation to reach the turning boundary? Wanting to reach a higher boundary requires even more time!
But how did it become easy to practice when it came to Yang Feng? Zhēng was puzzled, but the fact is that what the Shu tribe took thousands of years to achieve, Yang Feng had achieved in just one month. Even if Zhēng didn't want to believe it, he couldn't deny it! However, Zhēng was extremely delighted because if Yang Feng's cultivation speed was this fast, wouldn't that mean that the Shu tribe would once again produce a genius like his father, Chi You, and Xing Tian?
Chī Zhèng was watching Yáng Fēng with increasing satisfaction, but after a while, Chī Zhèng discovered something strange. He felt that Yáng Fēng's body still contained other energies within it, which made Chī Zhèng feel very puzzled! To know that the cultivation of Jiǔ Zhuàn Xuán Gōng is to use all energy to forge the cultivator's body, making the person who cultivates Jiǔ Zhuàn Xuán Gōng have an extremely strong body. However, the cultivator's body will no longer possess other energies, and in normal times, they look just like an ordinary person, only showing their powerful strength during battles. But now, Yáng Fēng's body actually still had energy fluctuations!
"A'feng, what kind of technique did you cultivate before?! How is it that after cultivating the 9th turn of the Xuan Gong, there are still energy fluctuations in your body?!" Chi Zheng asked Yang Feng, who was now the hope for the revival of the Wu tribe. Chi Zheng absolutely could not watch him encounter any problems, so when he saw this strange occurrence, he became extremely tense.
Yang Feng saw Chi Zheng's tense expression and asked himself, although he wasn't clear about what was going on, but still told Chi Zheng about the Nine Yin True Classics, Nine Yang Divine Skills, Qian Kun Da Nuo Yi, and Blood Color True Qi that he had learned before. Chi Zheng listened to Yang Feng say that his cultivation was only a secular world's ancient martial art, and felt even more strange!
The Nine Revolutions of the Mysterious Vessel are extremely overbearing, and no matter what kind of spiritual energy or power is used, it will all be used to temper the practitioner's body under its effect. It absolutely won't leave any possibility for any energy to remain in the practitioner's body! But what about the Nine Yin Scriptures, the Nine Yang Divine Skill, the Qiankun Great Shift Heart Method, and that Blood-colored True Qi? How can they not be decomposed by the Nine Revolutions of the Mysterious Vessel and instead use their power to strengthen Yang Feng's body?!
Zi Zheng was puzzled by this matter, so he told Yang Feng about it. Yang Feng found it strange that the Nine Turns Profound Art had such an ability, and wondered how it could be that the strongest demonic art of the Wu tribe couldn't use the energy of the true qi it cultivated to temper its own body? However, Yang Feng himself felt that his body was many times stronger than before, and there were no other discomforts.
Yang Feng's body appeared in this situation, completely due to the nine divine dragons transformed by the true dragon purple gas. Those purple divine dragons were all hidden in Yang Feng's dantian and meridians. Originally, the Nine Revolutions of the Mysterious Elixir was not only meant to dissolve the practitioner's skeleton and flesh, but also their dantian and meridians would be dissolved and reorganized. However, due to the effect of the purple divine dragons, the Nine Revolutions of the Mysterious Elixir had no way to deal with Yang Feng's dantian and meridians, so it only dissolved and reorganized his skeleton and flesh.
Yang Feng naturally did not know about these circumstances, and he was even more unaware that his body still hid nine divine dragons transformed from the true dragon's purple energy. As for Chi Zheng, he knew even less about these circumstances. Thus, the two people who couldn't figure out what was going on could only give up and no longer investigate these matters.
Yang Feng still thought that the Nine Revolutions of the Mysterious Elixir, apart from being painful during the circulation process, was actually quite simple and not as difficult to practice as Chi Zheng had said. However, if he knew that this time his cultivation had exhausted all the demonic energy he had absorbed when saving Bai Qi and Zhao Kuo, as well as the entire Long River's true dragon purple energy, then who knows what Yang Feng would think at that time!
Yang Feng was able to cultivate the Nine Turns of the Mysterious Classics to the point of transformation in just one month, completely because his luck was too abnormal. If it weren't for the massive amount of demonic energy stored in his body's acupoints, if he wasn't the true dragon son recognized by the Purple Qi of the True Dragon, able to trigger the spiritual energy of the dragon pulse, then with such reckless cultivation, he would have ended up with nothing but a layer of skin left! Because the Nine Turns of the Mysterious Classics, without massive spiritual energy support, will completely decompose all the bones and flesh of the cultivator, leaving absolutely nothing behind.
Yang Feng and Chi Zheng didn't quite understand whether what happened to Yang Feng was good or bad, but since Yang Feng himself didn't feel anything out of place, the two people also stopped pursuing this matter. It had already been a month in this place, and it was time to go out. So Yang Feng and Chi Zheng walked towards the outside together.
When he arrived in front of the stone gate, Yang Feng intentionally tested his own strength and suggested that he move the stone gate. Chi Zheng listened silently, only smiling to indicate that Yang Feng could try. Yang Feng walked excitedly to the front of the stone gate, ready to show off his skills, but unexpectedly, the huge stone gate didn't budge, even when Yang Feng used all his might. This completely crushed Yang Feng's confidence!
Yang Feng had thought that after cultivating the Nine Turns of the Mysterious Gate, his power would have increased many times over, and moving this stone gate would be no problem, even if it wasn't easy. But now, using all his strength, including the power of his Golden Elixir, he still couldn't budge the gate, which made Yang Feng feel somewhat disheartened.
"Haha, don't be discouraged. You've only just started cultivating and you think you can move this stone door? That's truly a bit delusional. Let me tell you, without reaching the second level of the Nine Turns Profound Art, it's fundamentally impossible for you to move it. The road ahead of you is still long!" Chi Zheng said with a smile to Yang Feng. After finishing speaking, he walked forward and moved the stone door, allowing Yang Feng to leave.
After Yang Feng walked out, Chi Zheng put down the stone gate again and walked to Yang Feng's side, patted his shoulder, and said, "Alright, you should be content now. Do you know how many years it took me to reach the Turning Point realm? A whole 10,000 years! And yet you achieved it in just one month! Compared to you, I'm nothing!"
Yang Feng heard Chi Zheng's words, and his originally somewhat disheartened mood suddenly lifted. Ah, yes, he had already cultivated the Nine Turns of the Mysterious Skill so quickly, then wouldn't it be even faster to cultivate to the second turn? Thinking about this, Yang Feng's mood improved again, and he happily followed Chi Zheng as they walked out.
Chī Zhèng saw Yáng Fēng's mood lift up again, and he also smiled slightly, but in his heart, he felt a bit down. Looking at the smile on Yáng Fēng's face, Chī Zhèng actually felt very uncomfortable inside. He knew that Yáng Fēng had suffered a lot when he was young, and now he still had to bear the heavy responsibility of reviving the Wū tribe. After all, Yáng Fēng was only a twenty-year-old young man, and he should have his own life. However, Chī Zhèng had to put such a heavy burden on his shoulders, which was a cruel thing to do. Chī Zhèng felt some regret in his heart, but he could not help it, so he made a silent vow to himself that he would make it up to Yáng Fēng and protect him well in the future!
At the time when Chi was making such a vow in his heart, the two of them had already walked out of the underground cave and into his room. Bai Qi and Zhao Kuo were still guarding the room, while the Demon King had also arranged for his clansmen's affairs and had been waiting in the room early on. The Demon King also knew that the old man in front of him was Yang Feng's grandfather, so he hastily went forward to pay his respects. Chi Zheng saw the Demon King do this, but didn't say much, only nodding his head towards him, acknowledging the Demon King's existence.
The strength of the Demon King was nothing in front of Chi Zheng, who had cultivated the Nine Turns of the Mysterious Tao to the fourth turn. Chi Zheng could even kill the Demon King with one palm, but Yang Feng had already told him about the Demon King's situation before. Although there were conflicts between the Wu and Yao tribes, Chi Zheng would not bother to calculate it because of Yang Feng's face, so he let Yang Feng go help the Demon King.
Chi Zheng's mind was still preoccupied with the bloodline left behind by other ancestral witches, so soon after they emerged from the underground cave, Chi Zheng had Yang Feng take care of this matter.
