Chapter 151
byThat day, Shopkeeper Meng passed on the order from the elder with the ect Leader. promoting Yang Kai to an ordinary disciple. Wei Xitong insisted on doing something tricky in the middle. His original intention was to test, but unexpectedly things didn’t go as he expected. Yang Kai’s refusal directly caused him to change from the initiative to the passive, really caught off guard.
Thinking of this, Su Xuanwu felt a burst of joy in his heart.
“Second Elder, don’t we need to take action？ Yang Kai’s refusal this time will surely cause him a lot of trouble.” That disciple asked again.
“No！” Su Xuanwu slowly shook his head. “Don’t bother with this matter. Just watch the show.”
“Yes！” Although that disciple didn’t understand, he didn’t dare to refute.
“Wei Xitong, Wei Xitong, let’s see how you explain this to the Sect Master today！”
With a confident look on his face, Su Xuanwu dropped the white stone in his hand.
The lifeless endgame suddenly showed a sign of revival. The besieged white stones were like a dragon raising its head, faintly about to break free from the encirclement.
Naturally, Yang Kai didn’t know that a casual move of his would involve so many things. At this moment, he was sitting cross-legged at the entrance of the cave with a calm mind.
One day later, Yang Kai stood up and called out to the Earth Demon in his heart.
In an instant, a black qi flew out from under the Dragon Trapping Ravine, wrapped around Yang Kai’s fingers, and disappeared.
“Did you find anything down there？” Yang Kai asked.
“This old slave didn’t dare to go too deep. I only absorbed some evil qi at a thousand zhang below and didn’t find much. ButYoung Master, don’t worry. After this old slave recovers more strength, I will definitely be able to go deeper and investigate.” The voice of the Earth Demon came over.
“En.” Yang Kai nodded, crouched down and touched the Yin-Yang Demon Ginseng, poured a drop of Yang Liquid into it, and said, “You just absorb the Yang Qi here. Remember, if it’s not the two women you’ve seen before who come here, you must run away, understand？”
The five sense organs on the Yin-Yang Demon Ginseng showed a somewhat understanding expression.
“IsYoung Master going on a long journey？” The Earth Demon asked.
“En, going out for a walk. You come with me.”
“Naturally.” There was excitement in the Earth Demon’s tone. “Young master, if you encounter anyone who can be killed during this trip, don’t let them go. The Soul-Shattering Cone of this old servant has lost its spirituality and needs the souls of people to repair. The more souls it absorbs, the stronger the Soul-Shattering Cone can be. If it can be completely repaired, hehe, with this treasure in hand, the young master can dominate one side and command the world！”
Yang Kai smiled slightly. Obviously, he wouldn’t be bewitched by the Earth Demon’s words.
He wanted to go out also because of his own considerations.
First, he had just rejected that promotion order. Staying here any longer might cause a lot of trouble.
Second, he was also considering Su Yan. The dual cultivation of the Harmony Skill made it difficult for her to control her thoughts. If he stayed here, once she had desires, it would be very difficult for her to control. The Ice Heart Art she cultivated is destined not to allow her heart to have too much fluctuation. Once he left, it would be equivalent to helping her cut off her retreat, and she would have to go all out to resist, which would be of great benefit to her cultivation.
The third point was out of his own consideration. The cultivation of the Qi Movement Realm couldn’t be achieved simply by sitting in meditation. Only by experiencing life and death tribulations could one grow rapidly.
Remembering the strength gap between himself and Su Yan, Yang Kai felt that he couldn’t stay in the sect any longer and live this relatively comfortable life.
Leaving a letter in the cave, Yang Kai traveled light. He left the Lingxiao Pavilion alone under the cover of night.
On a treetop that Yang Kai couldn’t see, a green figure stood there, neither making a sound to retain him nor stepping forward to bid farewell. Just quietly watching him.
The night wind blew, ruffling the veil as thin as a cicada’s wing and revealing a peerless appearance.
After a long time, a somewhat old voice rang out behind her: “My disciple, it’s late at night and the dew is heavy. Rest earlier.”
In the tone, there was a lot of helplessness and love.
“Mm.” Xia Ning Shang hugged her arms, feeling a little cold.
After leaving Lingxiao Pavilion, Yang Kai didn’t think of any good place to go either. He just randomly found a direction, and the firelight burst out under his feet, traveling at lightning speed.
In one night, he was two or three hundred li away from Lingxiao Pavilion.
The night of rapid travel actually made Yang Kai’s mind immerse in a kind of perception atmosphere.
Perceiving the change of Yuan Qi in his legs, that inexplicable vibration whenever the speed increased looking forward to finding a reasonable rule from it.
Since the Jiuyin Valley, Yang Kai roughly understood how to use Yuan Qi to increase his speed, and then tested and used it several times in the inheritance cave, and the effect was fairly good.
But this was only a rough use of Yuan Qi and there was no fixed routine.
When facing the enemy, although powerful martial skills are important, if there are exquisite footwork to rely on, it can also make people even more powerful and more easily cope with the enemy’s attacks.
This point, when Yang Kai killed Long Hui back then, he had a deep understanding. At that time, Long Hui was relying on a set of footwork to play tricks on Yang Kai for a long time.
Footwork is also what Yang Kai lacks the most now.
Yang Kai has self-awareness. He is just a small martial artist in the Qi Movement Realm and simply impossible to create Youdaoplaceholder0 brilliant footwork.
But he can find the most reasonable and effective way to use Yuan Qi from his walking and running, think about how to increase his speed, and how to make the tiniest Yuan Qi exert the greatest effect.
The things perceived in this way may not be very high-grade and may not be useful to others, but they are definitely the most suitable for himself.
Powerful martial skills are all created by those with profound strength in endless perception, which is the condensation of their own strength and thoughts.
In the perception, Yang Kai’s actions seemed strange and weird. There was a confusion on his face as if he had lost his soul, but his feet kept moving.
Sometimes he would rush east for dozens of miles, sometimes turn to the south and walk slowly for a dozen miles, sometimes go west again, or turn north again. Whenever there was a mountain, he would cross it, and whenever there was water, he would wade through it. His speed was sometimes fast and sometimes slow, and his direction was erratic.
Occasionally, he would bump into a big tree or fall into a puddle, making himself a mess and his clothes tattered. However, Yang Kai didn’t care at all.
Only when his physical strength was exhausted would he temporarily stop, find some wild game to fill his stomach, and continue this aimless journey after recovering.
The Earth Demon watched with a secret shock. With his knowledge and experience, he naturally knew what Yang Kai was doing. It was precisely because he knew that he was extremely shocked.
A mere martial artist in the Qi Movement Realm could actually fall into such a deep level of comprehension, as if his body was integrated with the heaven and earth, and his mind and body were united. This simply subverted the Earth Demon’s perception.
Although he admired, the Earth Demon also had some disapproval.
After all, Yang Kai’s strength was too low. Even if he was comprehending and creating, it was impossible to obtain anything too profound.
According to the Earth Demon’s thoughts, instead of running around aimlessly at this time, it would be better to find a place to refine some secret treasures that could carry people to fly. With the help of the secret treasures, there was no need to travel on foot anymore.
However, thinking about Yang Kai’s personality, the Earth Demon still didn’t dare to say his thoughts. Because all the secret treasure refining methods he knew were extremely evil and required melting human bodies and bones and banning people’s souls. If this was said it would definitely be spurned by Yang Kai again.
In a hurry for more than ten days, Yang Kai was still immersed in comprehension. He didn’t know how many miles he had traveled. Although there was no progress in his comprehension of his own footwork, he did have some insights into the control of Yuan Qi.
It was really unintended success.
In the past, whenever Yang Kai’s speed suddenly increased, two balls of fire would emerge beneath his feet. But now, the fireballs could no longer be seen, and there wasn’t even much fluctuation of Yuan Qi detectable. When he walked or ran, there was no trace to be found, and it was smooth and natural.
Not only that, the violent traces of the circulating Yuan Qi had also gradually subsided. It was no longer like when he had just advanced, where with a single movement of the Yuan Qi, one could see through his depth at a glance.
After some more days passed, Yang Kai, who was running, suddenly slowed down his pace and walked as if strolling in a leisurely manner. Moments later, his figure became blurred for a moment, and when he reappeared, he was already more than ten zhang away.
Before his figure could stabilize, it became blurred again. When this figure dissipated, Yang Kai returned to his original position as if he had never moved, and his unhurried pace still slowly moved forward.
Moments later, this strange situation occurred again, but this time Yang Kai’s figure flickered one more time than before.
After days and days of perception and experimentation, finally one day, Yang Kai’s figure flickered seven times, and when he stopped, he had already arrived more than a hundred zhang away.
His complexion was a bit ruddy, and he took a heavy breath. A smile emerged on the corner of Yang Kai’s mouth.
The voice of the Earth Demon rang out in a timely manner: “Congratulations to the Young Master for tempering a step that belongs to himself. The Young Master’s divine might is truly awe-inspiring, and this old servant submits!
Stop flattering.” Yang Kai smiled faintly. “In your opinion, how is this step?
The Earth Demon pondered for a moment before opening his mouth and saying, “Does the Young Master want to hear the truth or a falsehood？”
“First, let’s hear the falsehood.”
The voice of the Earth Demon immediately rang out, “This footwork is unrivaled in the world, not like something from the human world. There is no trace to be found when moving and dodging, just like a gazelle hanging its horns. This old slave is ashamed. In my life, I have never seen such exquisite footwork and really don’t know how to comment on it.”
Yang Kai laughed heartily and said, “What you said is too false. Now, tell the truth.”
“Hehe.” The Earth Demon sneered and said seriously, “The Young Master, with the Qi Movement Realm, has created such footwork, which really makes this old slave admire. However, this footwork has not reached perfection. What the Young Master feels now is too rough. If this footwork is used to deal with martial artists of the same level, there should be no big problem. But if you encounter an opponent whose strength exceeds that of the Young Master, I’m afraid it will be a bit difficult to perform. Moreover, this footwork is a small-scale moving and dodging technique and is not suitable for long distances. Furthermore, I observe that the Young Master can only make seven flashes with this footwork and then runs out of strength. I’m afraid this is your limit.”
“Hmm.” Yang Kai nodded and admitted what the Earth Demon said.
His current strength is still too low, and he can’t perceive too deep things. He is already very satisfied to be able to create a set of footwork belonging to himself. When his strength improves in the future, it is not impossible to perceive and correct it well.
Moreover, his gains were not only the creation of this set of footwork. He also learned how to hide his Yuan Qi fluctuations during the journey. When not fighting with others, Yang Kai now looked no different from an ordinary person. Even when fighting, he would no longer be like a madman as before, unless he used the Unyielding Pride.
