Chapter 570

570 Shooting without shooting

The cocoon of light on his body shattered. Xia ping ‘an opened his eyes, and there was still a trace of shock in his eyes. He muttered to himself, ” this realm Pearl is so powerful.

At this point, Xia Pingan could finally confirm that those who had fused with Ji Changxue’s realm Pearl had indeed only fused half of it. The most crucial secret technique of this realm Pearl,’shooting without shooting’, had not been mastered by anyone else.

After merging with the realm Pearl, the upper limit of Xia Pingan’s divine power in his secret mandala had increased by 66 points, becoming 8632 points. In this way, he was less than 200 points away from breaking through to the seven sun realm.

In addition to the increase in divine power, Xia ping ‘an had also gained four things from the realm Pearl. The first was that the realm Pearl had provided him with a spell that strengthened his eyes, allowing Xia ping’ an’s eyes to possess a terrifying observation ability like Ji Chang’s. This ability allowed Xia ping ‘an to see a mosquito as large as an Eagle from a thousand meters away. This was the second visual ability that Xia ping’ an had gained after becoming a Summoner, other than his dark vision.

The second benefit that the realm Pearl gave Xia ping ‘an was the secret skill of the unshooting technique. This secret skill allowed one to shoot a powerful invisible arrow without the need for a bow and arrow, easily crushing the top-tier master archers.

The third benefit that the realm Pearl provided to Xia Pingan was that after Xia Pingan fused with the realm Pearl, his ability to master the bow and arrow had reached its peak. Since Xia Pingan did not have the mystery of the boundary between realms, the things that Ji Chang had experienced and learned in the realm Pearl were the same as what Xia Pingan had learned and mastered.

The fourth benefit that the realm Pearl had given Xia ping ‘an was that he could summon master archers. Note that he was summoning master archers instead of ordinary archers. The combat strength of the two was on completely different levels.

The newly added divine power had strengthened the abilities of Xia Pingan’s clone. Thinking of the secret technique of shooting without shooting that he had just mastered, Xia Pingan stood up and walked through the space covered by his array board, directly coming to the cave outside.

The cave was dark, but in Xia ping ‘an’s eyes, it was as bright as day.

Xia Pingan fixed his eyes on an upside-down stalactite which looked like a bamboo shoot over 200 m away. The stalactite was longer than 2 m and was hanging upside-down from a crack of the karst cave. Water was constantly dripping from the stalactite into the crack of the karst cave below.

As Xia ping ‘an looked at it, the tip of the stalactite suddenly became bigger in Xia ping’ an’s eyes. The tip of the stalactite, which was the size of a little finger, suddenly became as clear as a pillar in Xia ping ‘an’s eyes. The water that dripped from the tip of the stalactite also became as big as a basketball in Xia ping’ an’s eyes.

The secret technique of shooting without arrows didn’t pay attention to the form or tools. Once mastered, one could shoot without shooting even if they were walking or sitting with their bare hands, and easily kill enemies from 100 meters away.

In the blink of an eye, Xia Pingan was surrounded by a cocoon of light.

......

When Xia Pingan regained consciousness, his vision was dark and he couldn’t see anything clearly. He only heard a person in front of him say in a regretful voice, ” Shi Kuang, you are so knowledgeable and talented. I’m already 70 years old, but I still feel that I’m not knowledgeable enough. I want to learn something, but I’m afraid that I’m old. It’s too late to learn now! Now that I think about it, it’s because I didn’t study labor when I was young and Wasted too much time. It’s too late to regret now.”

Xia ping ‘an knew that the person he was talking to was the Duke of Jin ping.

Shi Kuang was known as the music Saint in ancient China. He was a famous Master of Music and was also the Minister of Jin during the time of Duke Dao of Jin and Duke Ping of Jin. He was the Grand Minister. He was good at both music and divination. He was the ancestor of fortune-telling and was also proficient in the language of birds and beasts. It was said that Shi Kuang could summon phoenixes and hundreds of birds by playing the zither. There were also rumors that he was the creator of the ancient Tai Chi. It was no exaggeration to say that Shi Kuang was an extraordinary man.

However, Shi Kuang was blind and could not see anything.

There was a saying that Shi Kuang was born blind. There was also another saying that Shi Kuang had used an acupuncture to destroy his own vision. Shi Kuang had discovered that his vision would affect his concentration, making him unable to concentrate on doing something. Thus, he had turned himself blind.

This realm Pearl was the first realm Pearl that Xia ping ‘an had fused with in complete darkness. It was only through conversation.

“Your Majesty, why don’t you light the candle?” Hearing Duke Jin Ping’s question, Xia ping ‘an replied directly.

“Are you making fun of me by saying this? what kind of official would make fun of the monarch like this?” Duke Jin Ping’s voice was already somewhat unhappy.

“I’m already blind, so how would I dare to tease Your Majesty? however, I’ve heard that when a person is young, he likes to study, and it’s as bright as the rising sun. When a person is middle-aged, he likes to study, and it’s as strong as the afternoon sun. When a person is old, he likes to study, and even when the sun sets, it’s like holding a candle in his hand. Your Majesty, do you think it’s better to walk with a candle or walk in the dark? One must live and learn to the end, and it’s never too late to learn.”

Jin ping gongjie praised, ” well said!
