Chapter 183 - The Cultivating Feathered Serpent Spirit

If Lin Yao wanted to earn hundreds of millions of yuan based on his combat power alone, he had to at least be a gold warlord. Before achieving that, he could only hope that others would invest in him.

However, borrowing from others made him feel insecure. In that case, selling his charm was his best option.

Still, taking photos was Lin Yao’s limit. He would not go further than that.

Fortunately, Qin Ya was not going to go further either. After telling him about this, she saw the little serpent that was swimming intimately beside Lin Yao. She thought of something and hurriedly said, “I have already found out the evolutionary method of energy creatures. Do you want to take a look now?”

“Okay.”

Qin Ya placed the laptop in front of Lin Yao once again and opened a file for him to look at.

Lin Yao browsed through it and saw the two popular methods energy creatures used to advance to a silver warlord.

The first method was gigantism. Compared to real living creatures, energy creatures could change their body shape more easily. If they wanted to increase their strength, all they needed to do was expand in size and increase their energy.

However, this was not an easy method. Energy creatures were not formed solely from energy. The power of the soul was also needed to form them. In fact, the factor that determined how much energy these natural spirits could manipulate was none other than the power of the soul. This meant that if one enhanced the power of the soul of the feathered serpent spirit and it underwent a qualitative change, it would be able to manipulate more energy, and the feathered serpent spirit would also be able to advance.

The second method was improving energy properties. Take the flame spirit for example, which would increase the flame temperature. The higher the temperature, the stronger the flame spirit. For the feathered serpent spirit, this meant increasing the power of wind, rain, thunder, and lightning.

‘One of the two methods is a quantitative change, while the other method is a qualitative change. They are indeed the most popular methods. I wonder if the feathered serpent spirit can meditate.’

Meditation could increase one’s mental strength, and Lin Yao’s mastery of Leize Dragon God Meditation had reached the diamond level. While increasing his mental strength, he could also transform his soul to take after Leize Great God, which was the god who could control thunderbolt. Even if he was only a fraction similar to Leize Great God, he would have a much better understanding of thunder and lightning and he would be able to increase the power of his thunderbolt.

Therefore, as long as the feathered serpent spirit could meditate, it could advance on its own.

‘Wait a minute… After strengthening the power of the soul, it has to absorb electricity if it wants to become bigger… But it’s simple. I just need to find a power plant for it. I can also find a tall building with lightning rods for it to absorb lightning. It can attach itself to the lightning rod to absorb the lightning during a rainstorm.

‘Sure enough, lightning and thunder are very cheap.’

While sighing, Lin Yao grabbed hold of the feathered serpent spirit and whispered, “You are also a mature dependent. You should grow up by yourself.”

Ss…!

The feathered serpent spirit, which had just been born a few days ago, obviously did not understand Lin Yao’s meaning. When it was caught, it thought that its “mother” was finally going to play with it. It thus wrapped itself around his neck and licked his face.

In desperation, Lin Yao allowed it to enter his Sea of Consciousness, planning to teach it with his consciousness.

Not waiting for Lin Yao to enter the meditation state, Qin Ya was preparing to leave. Before leaving, she stared at Lin Yao intently.

“It is very likely that you will be fighting against the Ultimate Boxing Dojo tomorrow. You must be careful. They are very strong. If you lose…”

Qin Ya initially wanted to say that Lin Yao could not lose, but she soon realized that what others valued were Lin Yao’s talent and growth potential, so they would not withdraw their investments after one or two failures.

“Go all out during the fight. Although one or two failures will not disappoint them, consecutive failures are absolutely unacceptable.”

“You don’t need to remind me.”

…

“He is very strong. You must be careful tomorrow.”

Qin Ya was not the only person who was worried. In the resting area of the Ultimate Boxing Dojo, Du Ming, Du Zhuang, and three other people were gathered, waiting for the middle-aged man on the video screen to give them his instructions.

The middle-aged man was their master. He was Fang Huai, also known as Hundred Step Divine Fist, the master of the Ultimate Boxing Dojo. The Ultimate Boxing Dojo, which was based in the Xinghai Prefecture, had plans to open a branch, and Ninghai City was his first stop. In order to ensure a successful opening, he had sent his direct disciple, Du Ming, to participate in the match.

He was confident that nothing would go wrong if he sent Du Ming to participate in the competition. Although Du Ming was not a warlord, it was because he had suppressed the advancement. His body strengthening had reached 500%, he had the Blood Ape bloodline, and he could transform into a little giant. He had also mastered the extreme sect of Heaven and Earth Dojo’s Whale-Like Engulfing Method of the North. Given his capabilities, he would be able to get a good ranking in the capital of the Xinghai Prefecture. Fang Huai did not think that Du Ming would lose.

Du Ming had not let him down either. He had Iron Body 500%, Blood Ape transformation, and the Whale-Like Engulfing Method of the North. When he used these three abilities together while throwing a punch, his fist smashed and shattered the condensed giant firebird, creating a huge sensation in Ninghai City.

Fang Huai’s original idea was to work on his winning momentum so he could continue winning matches, building on his growing reputation so that the dojo could take root in Ninghai City based on the mighty presence of Du Ming and the team. He also intended to send their battling videos to other nearby cities so they would become widely known in these cities as well. This way, he could set up dojos to recruit new apprentices.

This was an important strategy, and it was off to a good start. However, Lin Yao’s appearance had disrupted his plan. In terms of popularity, Du Ming and the others, or everyone else actually, had been overshadowed by Lin Yao alone. Lin Yao had defeated everyone with his good looks.

In addition, his combat power was not to be underestimated. Although Fang Huai had total confidence in Du Ming, he was still slightly worried this time. Lin Yao was very powerful thanks to the help of Angel’s Descent.

At the same time, Fang Huai could not call this cheating. That was Lin Yao’s talent, so he could not stop him from using it. After all, Du Ming’s Blood Ape transformation was also his talent.

“Master, I will not lose.”

Fang Huai nodded upon seeing Du Ming’s confidence.

“Sure, I trust you.”

After ending the phone call, Fang Huai did not close the video playing next to him. The video showed light converging as Lin Yao condensed the sunlight spear.

‘Although this is mainly the power of angels, his body is strong enough to withstand this force. Lin Yao… I can invite him over after the match.’

With this thought in mind. Fang Huai valued victory even more. Fang Huai knew very well that geniuses were arrogant. There would still be a chance of inviting him over if the dojo defeated Lin Yao. If Lin Yao won, he would never accept a loser as his master.

Tapping his finger on the table, Fang Huai carefully reviewed the scene in the video. Soon, the tapping on the table stopped. He had discovered Lin Yao’s weakness.

“This approach might be despicable, but victory belongs to the Ultimate Boxing Dojo.”

As he said this, he made a phone call.

“Zong Qi, do me a favor. You will be paid.”

…

While the Ultimate Boxing Dojo was thinking of ways to deal with Lin Yao, everyone in Ninghai City was also discussing the outcome of tomorrow’s match.

If Lin Yao would really fight against the Ultimate Boxing Dojo. This was almost regarded as an early final, and there would naturally be many discussions about it.

No. 1 High School planned for both Lin Yao and the Ultimate Boxing Dojo to suffer serious injuries, while the Ultimate Boxing Dojo was thinking of ways to deal with Lin Yao. As for Lin Yao, who was the key figure in all of this, he did not seem to care.

While others were having vivid discussions, he was helping the feathered serpent spirit cultivate the Leize Dragon God Meditation.

This technique had been bestowed by the heavenly mirror, and logically speaking, it could not be passed on to others. Lin Yao could not dictate it either. However, the feathered serpent spirit was regarded as Lin Yao’s dependent and was connected to his soul. Hence, he could transmit the meditation technique through his consciousness.

However, the feathered serpent spirit that had been reborn only felt fear and reverence for the Leize Dragon God’s image. After seeing the image, it shrank and shivered, unable to practice at all. Lin Yao was helpless in this situation.

‘Don’t be afraid. Imitate it…’

No matter what Lin Yao said, the feathered serpent spirit did not dare to move. After all, this was a small serpent that had just been born a few days ago. It was too timid. Of course, it was also possible that Leize Great God was too majestic.

As he faced this situation, Lin Yao felt like giving up. Soon, his eyes lit up as he thought of an idea.

‘You are afraid of the image of the Leize Dragon God that was transmitted by the Heavenly Mirror, but what if it is the Leize Dragon God formed by my consciousness?’

After ordering the feathered serpent spirit to learn from him, Lin Yao also began to meditate.

Of course, since it was too difficult to visualize the image of Leize Dragon God, Lin Yao did not even get started, and he naturally could not transform into Leize Dragon God with his consciousness. However, this would not be a problem for Lin Yao, as he had the Tree of Heaven Punishment.

As Lin Yao’s consciousness settled in the Tree of Heaven Punishment, endless insight about thunder and lightning was reflected in Lin Yao’s mind. Lin Yao ignored them and focused on thinking about the image of Leize Dragon God when it was transmitted by the Heavenly Mirror.

As he was recalling this, countless thunder and lightning automatically turned into lines to outline the image of Leize Dragon God even without him doing anything. Although he had the Tree of Heaven Punishment to assist him, Lin Yao’s sketch of Leize Dragon God was still slightly distorted. However, this was enough. This was at least the fourth level of meditation.

The first level was calming down, the second level was drawing dots and lines, the third level was forming a fuzzy shape, the fourth level was forming a complete image, and the fifth level was taking form and acquiring a spirit.

Lin Yao did not take the initiative to cultivate. Since the Tree of Heaven Punishment was very powerful, he felt that it was very natural, and everything just fell into place.

At the same time, although the image of Leize Dragon God that he’d outlined was vague, there was a similarity to the actual god, and it could be considered the fourth level of meditation.

His consciousness turned into Leize Dragon God, and Lin Yao now had more insight into thunder and lightning. In the process, his mental strength had also slowly increased.

The place where the two sacred trees were located was Lin Yao’s Sea of Consciousness. Therefore, the Leize Great God outlined by Lin Yao was also on top of the Tree of Heaven Punishment. It could be clearly seen by the feathered serpent spirit. The Tree of Heaven Punishment’s charm was constantly flowing toward the top of the sacred tree. The image of Leize Dragon God was mainly constructed by the charm of the Tree of Heaven Punishment. Lin Yao’s mental strength was not worth mentioning.

Although it was vague, the sudden appearance of Leize Dragon God’s image gave the feathered serpent spirit a shock. It felt like worshiping the god. There was also a hint of similarity in the virtual image of the great god.

However, the feathered serpent spirit soon sensed that although Leize Dragon God’s virtual image was terrifying, it could smell its own “mother” on it. This way, the feathered serpent spirit was no longer afraid. Instead, it even rushed toward it.

Ss…!

When it hissed and acted like a baby, the Leize Dragon God formed by Lin Yao’s consciousness looked downward and told the serpent to outline Leize Great God itself.

However, Lin Yao, who was conveying consciousness, had forgotten one thing. He was a living creature. One’s consciousness was different from one’s flesh. They were two separate things. Even if there was an impact, it would take time to change it bit by bit.

However, things were different for the feathered serpent spirit. It was a natural creature, so the shape of its soul was also its body shape.

When Lin Yao ordered it to change its body shape, it immediately did so. However, as it outlined with its consciousness, its body also changed accordingly.

The intrinsic nature of its soul was that of a feathered serpent. It was difficult for it to take a look at Leize Great God and transform its body shape into the god’s. As a result of this forced transformation, its consciousness and body seemed to be falling apart.

Lin Yao had a big shock upon seeing the situation. He wanted to stop right away. However, he soon thought of a smart idea. Leize Great God had a dragon head, and a human body dissipated. Soon, a gigantic dragon made of thunder and lightning appeared on top of the Tree of Heaven Punishment.
