Zhu Qingyun and Feng Xi sat facing each other within the bamboo pavilion beside the lake.
A few ducks in the lake were playing and hunting freely. The bamboo forest by the shore was gentle. As the breeze blew, it gave off a rustling sound, making people feel comfortable listening to it. Within the bamboo forest, on top of the jade-green water, many birds were circling around. They didn't make any sounds, but rather let out a few melodious sounds, creating a beautiful scene that resembled the chirping of birds and the fragrance of flowers.
Feng Xi casually waved her hand and broke two bamboo sticks on top of the emerald bamboo at the side. She passed one of the branches to Zhu Qingyun and said: "Since you are a descendant of my Heavenly Yang Clan, I naturally should teach you some skills. The Pithy Formula of Elemental Energy of the Heavenly Yang Clan was very complicated and could not be understood in a short period of time. Therefore, you only need to memorize the incantation first before slowly cultivating it in the future. Right now, I will first teach you a few sword-arts. At the very least, it won't be a problem for me to deal with some of the thugs. "
The Martial Skill of the Heavenly God Continent must have the coordination of spirit energy, otherwise it wouldn't have any power. It was actually not like that at first, it was just that in order to control the people on the continent, Heavenly Yang Clan had purposely designed this model. The purpose was to restrict those with potential and talent in Heavenly God Continent to a fixed pattern, so that they would not be able to awaken their elemental energy, and not be a threat to the rule of God Clan.
The original Martial Skill s were naturally not like this. Before people even knew about the elemental energy, Heavenly Yang Clan relied on the precision of sword techniques to establish a foothold on the ground. It was because of this that their race had become one of the few that had discovered the secret of elemental energy.
Feng Xi replaced the bamboo branches with the iron sword, and started to demonstrate the sword techniques on her Heavenly Yang Clan. When Feng Xi used that exquisite sword technique, it looked extremely beautiful yet mysterious, causing Zhu Qingyun to be extremely envious.
After demonstrating once, Feng Xi asked Zhu Qingyun to try practicing once. Zhu Qingyun was naturally intelligent, and was deeply captivated by the sword technique that Feng Xi had displayed. Although she had only seen it once, she had remembered 80% of it.
Seeing that Zhu Qingyun's comprehension was so high, Feng Xi was even more pleased. She gradually began to teach Zhu Qingyun some profound sword techniques, but Zhu Qingyun was still able to quickly digest all the techniques and keep them for her own use.
In less than a day's time, Zhu Qingyun had learnt all of Feng Xi's techniques. At first, Feng Xi was still giving pointers from the side, then she let Zhu Qingyun practice by herself. But when she saw that Zhu Qingyun's techniques were getting more and more proficient, she could not help but feel itchy. In the end, she started to spar with Zhu Qingyun.
The sun had set, and it was already sunset.
Zhu Qingyun was leaning on the door as she sat down, her gaze never leaving the path that led to the bamboo forest and small buildings.
Seeing her expression, Feng Xi said loudly: "Ying'er, you don't have to bother waiting for them. The sky was already at this time, and they wouldn't come. That old fogey had this kind of personality. Once she started cultivating, it didn't matter whether it was day or night. Now that he has that little kid Leng Jun to accompany him, he must be even more happy! "
Hearing Feng Xi's words, Zhu Qingyun felt that it made sense. Because she felt that the Martial Skill was indeed very interesting. As a girl, she was already extremely excited after just a day of learning. A boy like Leng Jun would probably be many times more excited than him.
After thinking about it, Zhu Qingyun no longer used the door as a watchman's stone and returned to the stone hut to eat dinner with Feng Xi.
After the meal, Feng Xi said to Zhu Qingyun: "Ying'er, your sword technique is progressing very quickly, are your chants the same?"
Zhu Qingyun laughed and said: "That chant is too crude, and there is no meaning to it. I remember about seventy to eighty percent of it, but I'm still not too familiar with it. "
With that, Zhu Qingyun recited the profound formula to Feng Xi.
Although Zhu Qingyun didn't have the same photographic memory as Leng Jun, she wasn't able to remember seventy to eighty percent of it, like she had said. Although there would be some places with kattans, after some thought, it would go smoothly.
Feng Xi could not believe what she had heard. It had taken her more than a year to memorize all these incantations. She never expected that Zhu Qingyun would actually become so proficient in just one day, moreover, during this day, Zhu Qingyun was still practicing sword techniques nonstop, how did she do it?
Feng Xi was incredibly shocked, but she quickly changed her mind. Such a talented child, and also a descendant of the Heavenly Yang Clan, this was simply a gift from the heavens.
Those who were strong in the Martial Skill all had a problem, they did not wish for their skills to be brought into the coffin with them, and they all hoped that someone could inherit their legacy. However, there were differences in talent and wisdom among humans. Finding a martial arts genius was an extremely difficult task, and most of the time, one could only find a decent person.
Feng Xi had lived on the Ghost Isle for over a hundred years, and had long stopped thinking about taking in disciples. Even after Leng Jun and Zhu Qingyun arrived, she was only willing to give a few pointers to him because she loved him. Now that she saw how gifted Zhu Qingyun was, she could not help but once again have the thought of teaching him.
Thinking to this, Feng Xi said to Zhu Qingyun: "Xing'er, close your eyes. In your heart, remember the incantation I passed on to you."
Since Feng Xi had said so, Zhu Qingyun would naturally do as she said. She did as Feng Xi said, closed her eyes and started to recite the Heavenly Yang Clan chant Feng Xi had taught her.
After Zhu Qingyun closed her eyes, she got up and walked to her side. She stretched out a hand and pressed it on top of Zhu Qingyun's head, then a burst of golden spirit energy poured into the palm of her hand.
Zhu Qingyun only felt that the surroundings of her body had suddenly become warm, and then, as she closed her eyes, her thoughts suddenly brought her into another time and space.
The scenery of this space was no different than the stone house she was in. The only difference was that everything here had one color, and that was golden. Every item here emitted a golden light. The only difference was that some of the light rays were a bit stronger, while others were weaker.
Zhu Qingyun was so shocked that she almost shouted, but after trying a few times, she realized that she couldn't make any sound at all.
At this moment, Feng Xi's voice suddenly came over: "Calm down, don't let your thoughts run wild, silently recite the chants I taught you."
After Zhu Qingyun heard this, he quickly calmed herself down and started to recite the incantation had taught her. As she recited the chants one by one in Zhu Qingyun's mind, the space in front of her began to grow larger and larger. From the original stone house, it gradually expanded into the bamboo forest outside, and finally covered the entire small island. However, in this space, she could only feel the rivers, trees, flowers, plants, and even the rocks. She could not sense any living things at all. Zhu Qingyun had originally hoped that she could feel Leng Jun's expectations for him, but had also failed because of this.
