Chapter 1198 - Earthen Taboo: Firmament Shield (1/2)

MGA: Chapter 1198 - Earthen Taboo: Firmament s.h.i.+eld

“I’m allowed to train in them as I please? This treatment is very good indeed. However, Elder s.h.i.+, the Martial Skills here don’t seem to be of very high quality,” said Chu Feng after he swept his gaze over the Martial Skills present.

“Good eyesight. However, Chu Feng, you should know that the higher the quality a Martial Skill has, the harder it is to learn it.”

“While the Taboo Martial Skills here are not of very high quality, they are comparatively suited for new disciples like yourself.”

“In truth, this is not because our Cyanwood Mountain is stingy. It is merely done this way so that we can make things easier for the new disciples. As the saying goes, it doesn’t hurt to chew more when eating. As for cultivating and learning Martial Skills, one should not be shortsighted and seek instant benefits.”

“If we were to give new disciples higher quality Martial Skills to learn, they would not be able to learn them in a short period of time and would have to spend a long time to learn them. This would be equivalent to wasting their time and delaying their progress.” Elder s.h.i.+ was not angered by Chu Feng’s words. Instead, he patiently explained the matter to Chu Feng.

This was not because Elder s.h.i.+ possessed a very good temperament. Instead, it was that he was giving Chu Feng very good treatment.

In fact, in any other year, when the disciples came to turn in their rewards, Elder s.h.i.+ would not personally come to receive them.

The reason why Elder s.h.i.+ had personally come out to receive Chu Feng today was naturally related to Chu Feng triggering the Ancient Era’s Immortal Needle.

“What Elder s.h.i.+ says is very reasonable.” Chu Feng nodded his head in approval after hearing Elder s.h.i.+’s explanation. After all, not everyone possessed talent like his.

Not to mention higher quality Earthen Taboo Martial Skills, even ordinary Earthen Taboo Martial Skills were not things that anyone could just successfully learn and master.

It was not without reason that these things were known to be Taboo Martial Skills.

“Chu Feng, if you think that these Martial Skills here are too low quality, I can make an exception and allow you to see the high quality Martial Skills.”

“Merely, the Martial Skills there are not allowed to be learned as one wishes. At the very most, I could allow you to learn a single one. As the condition for allowing you to do that, you would not be allowed to learn the Martial Skills here as you wish either.”

“Are you willing to do that?” asked Elder s.h.i.+ with a smile on his face. It was as if he was making a transaction with Chu Feng.

“In that case, I must thank Elder s.h.i.+,” Chu Feng cupped his fist to express thanks.

For Earthen Taboos, Chu Feng already grasped the Earthen Taboo: Firmament Slash and Earthen Taboo: Dragon and Phoenix Dancing in the Skies. The two of them were both very high quality Earthen Taboo Martial Skills. Thus, Chu Feng truly had no interest in ordinary Earthen Taboo Martial Skills; only those of high quality would attract Chu Feng’s interest.

Seeing that Chu Feng accepted the conditions, Elder s.h.i.+ did not linger around, and directly brought Chu Feng away from this place and toward another location where Martial Skills were stored.

It was an underground palace. Regardless of whether it was the interior decorations, the strength of the spirit formation or the people guarding this place, they were all more than twice as strong as the place they were previously at.

This palace was extremely large. However, the amount of Martial Skills stored in this place was not many; they numbered only twenty. However, these twenty were no ordinary Taboo Martial Skills. Not only were they all Earthen Taboo Martial Skills, they were also top quality Earthen Taboo Martial Skills.

“These twenty Earthen Taboo Martial Skills could be said to be, other than the ones in the Cyanwood Sacred a.s.sembly, the most precious twenty Taboo Martial Skills of our Cyanwood Mountain. However, the difficulty in learning them is also extremely high. Even I would have to spend close to a hundred years to learn one of these twenty.”

“Right now, you have the opportunity to choose one among these twenty. However, my suggestion to you is to not choose one that is too difficult. At the very least, you should choose one that you feel is suited to you, one that you are capable of learning,” Elder s.h.i.+ advised.

“Elder s.h.i.+, thank you for your advice.” Chu Feng saluted to express his thanks. He was able to sense that these twenty Earthen Taboo Martial Skills were indeed no small matter. At the very least, in terms of their quality, they were many times better than the ones before.

After that, Chu Feng began to inspect the twenty Earthen Taboo Martial Skills one by one so that he could earnestly choose one of them. He noticed that these Martial Skills were truly quality goods. At the very least, the few that he had inspected were all comparable to his Earthen Taboo: Firmament Slash.

Surprisingly, although those Earthen Taboo Martial Skills were very powerful, none of them gave Chu Feng the urge to learn them.

It was only when Chu Feng checked out the thirteenth Martial Skill did his eyes start to s.h.i.+ne. In fact, even his heartbeat started to accelerate.

That was because the name of that Martial Skill was very familiar, it was actually called ‘Earthen Taboo: Firmament s.h.i.+eld.’

“Earthen Taboo: Firmament s.h.i.+eld, how could there be such a Martial Skill? Could this Martial Skill be related to my Earthen Taboo: Firmament Slash?”
