Chapter 1551 Overestimating One's Abilities (4K)
In the Sutra Library of Yunling Sect, there are many inherited martial arts techniques. Not to mention the ordinary ones, there are more than a hundred restrictive ones alone.
Many of the restrictive techniques were collected by the Yunling Sect from other places, and nine of them were created by the Yunling Sect itself, which are the continuation of the Yunling Jue.
The Soul-Enriching Technique is the Soul-Enriching Sect's basic practice. The power of this practice is close to that of a restrictive practice. If one can practice the Soul-Enriching Technique to its limit, it can actually nurture some weak talents.
There are two types of talent: innate and acquired. Let’s not talk about innate talent, which is something a practitioner has naturally. Acquired talent, on the other hand, is mostly given by some natural resources and treasures.
This kind of natural treasure is too precious. Its rarity is comparable to that of spiritual materials of the rank. Even some natural treasures of the top talents are more precious than some spiritual materials of the rank.
In addition to being bestowed by natural resources and treasures, there is actually another way to obtain acquired talent, which is to obtain it through practicing some special skills.
The many talents that Chen Fei possesses now are the result of successfully practicing restrictive techniques, which then bless him with the skills.
The Soul-Nourishing Technique also has a similar effect, but it is extremely weak. If you want to truly gain acquired talent, you need to continue practicing the Soul-Sealing Technique.
The Soul Sealing Technique is an advanced technique of the Soul Containing Technique. Its power is almost the same as that of ordinary restrictive techniques. The key is that a Realm Master without talent will have the opportunity to practice the Soul Sealing Technique after practicing the Soul Containing Technique to its limit.
This is actually the foundation of a sect, which allows disciples without talent to have the opportunity to practice restrictive skills.
Just like the technique that Chen Fei saw in the Sutra Library that bypassed the spiritual materials of the individual, these were all the results of practitioners trying to fight against the heavens for countless years of practice.
Follow the will of heaven and you will be a human being; go against the will of heaven and you will be an immortal.
Since there are even methods to bypass the spiritual materials of the individual character, this method of bypassing talent is not a big deal.
In addition to a large number of restrictive skills, the Sutra Library also contains eighteen types of earthly divine skills.
The Earth God Skills are tailor-made. Even if other realm masters obtain the Earth God Skills, the hope of mastering them is extremely slim. Compared with restrictive techniques, the Earth God Skills have the greatest limitations.
Like the geniuses on the Tianjiao List, especially those at the top of the list, the Earth God Skills they practiced were all tailor-made for them by the Earth God Realm powerhouses within the sect.
Therefore, the number of earthly divine skills in the Sutra Library is far less than the restrictive skills, because the Yunling Sect feels that no matter how many earthly divine skills are collected, they will not have much effect for the disciples.
The Yunling Sect believes that these eighteen types of earthly divine skills are something that its disciples may be able to successfully cultivate, because these eighteen types of earthly divine skills were all derived by the sect based on the Yunling Jue.
Although it was completely different from the Soul Condensing Technique, it still had some threads in it. If there were really disciples who could practice one or two moves from it, they could ask a powerful Earth God Realm expert in the sect to tailor a move for them.
The number of restricted techniques and earthly skills in the Sutra Library is naturally enough for Chen Fei. But for Chen Fei, the biggest gain from the Sutra Library is actually the techniques that bypass the spiritual materials of the position.
Moreover, there are not just one copy of this technique, but three copies.
Chen Fei read all the outlines of these three exercises that bypassed the spiritual materials of status. The theory was almost the same as what Chen Fei had summarized himself. When breaking through, he used the power of his soul to forcibly condense the status of heaven and earth and complete the final transformation.
There are many differences in the details of the process. If you only look at the general outline, you will not be able to see the mystery of the exercises.
But no matter what, compared to what Chen Fei himself concluded, which requires the soul to be two levels higher, these three methods of forcibly breaking through the realm only require the soul strength to be one level higher than the cultivation level.
In other words, when Chen Fei was at the peak of the Realm Lord and wanted to break through to the Earth God Realm, he only needed to have the soul strength of the early Earth God Realm.
Chen Fei suddenly thought of the top few people on the Tianjiao list. Hearing about their spiritual strength, they are now in the early stage of the Earth God Realm.
In addition to better controlling one's own power, if necessary in the future, there may be plans to force a breakthrough. After all, having only one path to take and having two paths to choose from are two completely different situations.
The tenth-level realm master has this method of forced breakthrough, and the eleventh and even twelfth levels may also have similar techniques.
The general outlines of the three forced breakthrough techniques only stated that there was a risk of failure in forced breakthroughs, but did not explain what would happen after failure.
In Chen Fei's opinion, if they really failed, the lightest consequence would be the loss of all their cultivation, and they would not be able to cultivate it back. Otherwise, why would the realm masters bother to take risks in the secret realm?
If the situation is more serious, it is possible that the person will die immediately, or even have a high probability of death.
The cost of a failed breakthrough is too high, and the basic conditions for a forced breakthrough are high enough, which is why forced breakthrough has not become a mainstream method of cultivation.
After all, although going to the secret realm to obtain spiritual materials is difficult and dangerous, once you get it, there is almost no possibility of failure in breaking through.
In the quiet room of the courtyard, Chen Fei's eyes fluctuated, and then he closed his eyes.
Whether it is the many restrictive techniques, the eighteen styles of earthly skills, or the three forced breakthrough techniques, all of them require contribution points to redeem.
Chen Fei did not want to earn contribution points, he only needed to obtain the status of a true disciple, and all the tenth-level skills in the Sutra Library would be open to Chen Fei.
Therefore, the only thing Chen Fei needs to consider now is which cultivator on the Tianjiao list to challenge.
Five days later, at the stone table in the courtyard, Zhu Shiyu sat opposite Chen Fei with a jade slip.
"This is some information about the geniuses on the Prodigy List. The time is too short, so we can only collect some public information." Zhu Shiyu said, handing the jade slip in his hand to Chen Fei.
"I am not able to use the secret method of sword-slaying the top world masters. According to Brother Zhu, who should I challenge at the bottom of the Tianjiao list?"
Chen Fei separated a part of his mind and entered the jade slip, while looking up at Zhu Shiyu.
"If you want to challenge the prodigies ranked 90th to 100th on the Prodigy List, I have three recommendations. Brother Chen, take a look and see if they are suitable." Zhu Shiyu whispered after hearing Chen Fei's words.
"I'd like to hear the details." Chen Fei said with a smile.
"The first one is called Jia Wanli, ranked 100th on the Tianjiao List, and he is a disciple of the Xuanheng Sect. The Xuanheng Sect is a small sect, and the strongest among them is in the early Earth God Realm. Jia Wanli is also the first disciple of the Xuanheng Sect to enter the Tianjiao List in all these years." Zhu Shiyu introduced.
Chen Fei's brows moved slightly. The strength of the Xuan Heng sect was roughly the same as that of the Lingxiao Tower in the Cangxia Domain.
If the Xuanheng Sect had such strength in the Cangxia Region, it would naturally be an existence that could shake the four directions with just a stomp of its foot. However, in the Hanshan Region, it could only be a small force.
The sects in Hanshan Territory that have powerful twelfth-level celestial gods are naturally the most top-notch forces. Many rare spiritual resources in Hanshan Territory have to be distributed among these forces, including positional spiritual materials.
Of course, in order to maintain fairness on the surface, these top forces will not monopolize all rare spiritual materials and resources; some of them will still flow to other sects.
In addition to these top forces, the rest are forces at the peak of the Earth God Realm. Today's Yunling Sect belongs to this position.
Some of the spiritual material resources flowing out of the top forces will only continue to flow down after being distributed by first-class forces such as the Yunling Sect.
From this, it can be seen that the spiritual materials that will eventually fall into the hands of a small force like the Xuanheng Sect will be extremely scarce. Treasures such as status spiritual materials have nothing to do with the Xuanheng Sect at all.
However, the significance of the Tianjiao List lies in the redistribution. If you can enter the Tianjiao List, you will be eligible to obtain some resources.
The Xuanheng sect's situation is much better than before because Jia Wanli entered the Tianjiao list.
Hanshan Domain does not want the power in their area to become stagnant, as that would cause it to lose vitality. Over time, this would likely lead to the decline of Hanshan Domain and then be directly swallowed up by the Yuan Demon.
Of course, these allocated resources refer to the resources in the eleventh-level secret realm controlled by Hanshan Territory. The resources obtained by the practitioners of Hanshan Territory from other places must be controlled by themselves.
"The second one is named Bai Shiwang, ranked 97th on the Tianjiao List, and is from the Zixing Sect. It is rumored that he was injured while exploring a secret realm some time ago." Zhu Shiyu said.
Chen Fei nodded. The Purple Star Sect was a first-rate force in the Hanshan Region. Its foundation was not as strong as that of the Yunling Sect, but the two were now at the same level.
Zhu Shiyu recommended Bai Shiwang, obviously because he took into account the fact that the other party was injured. After all, when masters compete with each other, what they may fight for is that one line.
In fact, the difference in strength between the 90th to the 100th place on the Tianjiao list is not that big, at most they are just a little bit different.
If Chen Fei challenges Bai Shiwang, it will be much easier than challenging Jia Wanli.
"Who is the third one?" Chen Fei asked with a smile.
"The third one is Lu Zongcheng from Shadow Valley, ranked 95th on the list of geniuses." Zhu Shiyu whispered.
"Shadow Valley? The one that has some personal grudge against our Yunling Sect?" Chen Fei's expression changed.
In the past, Shadow Valley was also the top force in Hanshan Territory, with a 12th-rank Heavenly God Realm expert in charge. But 20 years ago, the Heavenly God Realm expert in Shadow Valley fell.
Rumor has it that the death of the powerful god-level warrior in the Shadow Valley was related to the founder of the Yunling Sect, who just died a month ago.
Even though it was only a rumor, the Shadow Valley had indeed not had any dealings with the Soul Yun Sect for twenty years. The Soul Yun Sect did not take the Shadow Valley seriously. After all, with or without a powerful Heavenly God-level expert in charge, they were two completely different levels of power.
But now, Yunling Sect’s own ancestor who was at the level of a god has also fallen, and in the past month, Youying Valley has begun to have conflicts with Yunling Sect on many issues.
The two sides have not reached the point of tearing each other apart. After all, the outside world is now surrounded by demons. Not to mention whether it is wise or not to tear each other apart at this time, the other top forces in Hanshan Territory will be the first to talk to you.
But everyone in Hanshan Territory could see that after twenty years of forbearance, Youying Valley had now made its dissatisfaction with Yunling Sect public.
"Yes, if you challenge Lu Zongcheng of Shadow Valley, the possibility of the other party accepting the challenge will be higher." Zhu Shiyu nodded.
To challenge the prodigies on the list, it is not that you want to challenge, and the other party will accept the challenge. For a late-stage Realm Master like Chen Fei, the prodigies on the list can directly ignore Chen Fei's challenge.
Lu Zongcheng ranks the highest on the Tianjiao list and seems to have the greatest difficulty, but he is also the most likely to accept Chen Fei's challenge, so Zhu Shiyu put Lu Zongcheng on the list.
"Then challenge Lu Zongcheng. In your opinion, how much should we bet so that the other party will be willing to fight?"
Chen Fei directly chose Lu Zongcheng. Jia Wanli, who was ranked 100th, seemed to be the easiest to challenge, but the Xuanheng faction had finally made it into the list of geniuses, so there was no need for Chen Fei to deliberately crush the other party's mentality.
Chen Fei is confident in his own strength. If he can only barely challenge the 100th place, then Chen Fei might as well improve his cultivation to the peak of Realm Master before challenging.
The reason why Bai Shiwang was not chosen is that if Bai Shiwang was injured, the opponent could simply choose not to fight, and it would not matter how much you bet.
The second reason is that even if he beat Bai Shiwang, others would say that Chen Fei's victory was unfair.
Since Chen Fei wanted to attract the attention of Yunling Sect, challenging Bai Shiwang would not have a good effect. On the contrary, it was Lu Zongcheng of Youying Valley. The two sects had grievances, and if Chen Fei succeeded in the challenge, the effect would undoubtedly be the best.
“In a normal challenge, if you don’t have more than 500 Avenue Stones, those geniuses probably won’t even look at you. But if you choose Shadow Valley, judging by the current grudges among the sects, I estimate that if you have 500 Avenue Stones, the other party will definitely accept the challenge.” Zhu Shiyu said after thinking for a while.
"Five hundred avenue stones!"
Chen Fei tapped the table with his right hand. Unfortunately, Chen Fei did not have 500 Dao Stones in his hand. If Chen Fei chose to condense it himself, it would probably take several months.
A few months is not a long time, but Chen Fei doesn't want to wait.
"Is there a place in Songlin City where I can borrow the Avenue Stone?" Chen Fei looked at Zhu Shiyu and said.
Three days later, a letter of challenge was delivered to Shadow Valley in Creekside City.
"Senior Brother Lu, someone wants to challenge you." When the disciple of Shadow Valley saw Lu Zongcheng, he handed him a letter of challenge.
"open to take a look."
Lu Zongcheng closed his eyes, and the energy of heaven and earth around him was trembling slightly.
"Yes!" The disciple of Shadow Valley nodded, opened the challenge letter in his hand, and looked at the contents.
After a moment, the expression on the face of this disciple from Shadow Valley became a little strange.
"Who wants to challenge me?" Lu Zongcheng turned to look at his junior fellow apprentice.
"He is an inner sect disciple from Yunling Sect. He is willing to bet five hundred Dao Stones and ask for a fight with Senior Brother Lu. However, his realm is only the late stage of Realm Lord!" The disciple from Shadow Valley grinned, feeling that it was a bit ridiculous.
"Spiritual Enlightenment Sect, late stage of Realm Master?"
Lu Zongcheng’s eyes opened instantly. A late-stage realm master challenged him?
"Brother Lu, this might be a fraud. I'll go check it out!" the disciple from Shadow Valley whispered.
"Go and verify his cultivation level. If he is really in the late stage of Realm Lord, just accept it! People in the valley have always wanted to wipe out the prestige of Yunling Sect. Now is just the right opportunity!" Lu Zongcheng chuckled.
Two days later, the news that Yunling Sect's inner disciples challenged the top disciples of Youying Valley spread quickly.
