Chapter 218: We’re gonna crash, dammit, Senior’s distracted!

Translator: Stardu5t Editor: Kurisu

The Turtle Breathing Technique was a technique easy to comprehend, and anyone can easily guess what it did by simply hearing its name—it was a technique that allowed a cultivator to decrease the number of times they had to breathe for a period of time.

In the world of cultivators, there were various techniques related to lowering breath and heart rates. Even Turtle Breathing Technique was divided into two different types, ‘short-term Turtle Breathing Technique’ and ‘long-term Turtle Breathing Technique’.

Soft Feather’s senior brother, Liu Jianyi the lazybones, practiced the long-term Turtle Breathing Technique as hard as he could because he was too lazy to breathe. Now, he had reached the stage where he only had to breathe two to three times a month.

As for the ‘short-term Turtle Breathing Technique’, it uses magic to replace breathing within a short period of time. The stronger the power of the cultivator, the higher the efficacy of the technique.

The flexibility of this technique was rather high—once a low-level cultivator had the technique, he could enter underwater or underground places that lacked oxygen to carry out activities or go on an adventure.

Alright, these ain’t the problem. The problem is—why did Venerable White suddenly choose this timing to teach him the short-term Turtle Breathing Technique? Song Shuhang panicked in his heart.

Senior White’s face was still as peaceful as before as he calmly asked, ”How ‘bout it, do you wanna learn it or not?”

”Senior.” Song Shuhang’s face looked like he was in distress as he asked, ”You can tell me directly, did something happen?

Venerable White turned his head around and smiled, ”Yeah, if there are no mishaps, after we continue flying high up towards the sky, we will pa.s.s through the atmosphere and fly into s.p.a.ce!”

Pa.s.s through the atmosphere and… fly into s.p.a.ce…

His worst fears were coming true.

”Senior White, can’t we stop the flying sword? Based on your capability, stopping the flying sword isn’t a problem, right?” Song Shuhang asked carefully.

In reality, if it was just the two of them, even if they flew up to s.p.a.ce, he would just accept it and resign himself to his fate. Besides, he was already wearing a s.p.a.cesuit anyway—at most he can take it as partic.i.p.ating in a ‘Senior White brings you on a s.p.a.ce adventure for a day’ activity.

But this time, they have an Instructor Li Jr. with them and there was only one s.p.a.cesuit. Wait… f*ck, is this why Senior White wants me to learn the Turtle Breathing Technique?

Is it because he wants me to give Instructor Li Jr. my s.p.a.cesuit and get me to use the Turtle Breathing Technique? Song Shuhang’s eyes started to water.

”You guessed right, you can give the s.p.a.cesuit to Instructor Li Jr.” The master of mindreading Venerable White still had a smile on just like before and gave him a thumbs up. He explained, ”How should I put it, earlier when we were racing on the flying sword with that fella, we flew too fast and there’s nothing we can do about the speed now, we can’t stop. Of course, based on my capabilities, stopping the flying sword isn’t a problem… but the fuselage of the helicopter is unable to withstand so much pressure, it will explode—which is no problem for me, but it’s hard to say the same for you and Instructor Li Jr.”

The corners of Song Shuhang’s mouth twitched, ‘It’s hard to say the same for you and Instructor Li Jr.’? Could it be... death?

”I understand, Senior.” Song Shuhang said, ”Please teach me the Turtle Breathing Technique!”

At the same time, he removed the s.p.a.cesuit on his body and gave it to the pitiful Li Jr. to wear. He felt rather apologetic towards the instructor for dragging him into this unexpected calamity.

Hopefully, when things have ended and after Senior White performs a ‘brainwas.h.i.+ng operation’ on him, it would allow him to forget this traumatic experience and continue living his life happily.

”No worries, with me around, going to s.p.a.ce wouldn’t pose any danger! I am a Seventh Stage Spiritual Venerable.” Senior White rea.s.sured him.

Truth to be told… Senior White lied. Yeah, he said a white lie.

Based on his capabilities, even if the speed of ‘helicopter-style disposable flying sword’ was ten times faster than the speed it was going at at the moment, if he wanted to stop the flying sword, he could do it with just a thought.

Furthermore, it would definitely stop in a steady and stable manner.

It’s just that, Venerable White thought of the s.p.a.cesuit on Song Shuhang’s body, and his conversation with Song Shuhang prior to getting onto the helicopter.

Song Shuhang has always wanted to go to s.p.a.ce, right?

Additionally, because of his admiration for astronauts, he couldn’t help but don a s.p.a.cesuit when he sat in the helicopter, wanting to experience what it’s like to be an astronaut.

Even though he didn’t know what exactly Song Shuhang was worried about… Senior White still decided for himself that since Song Shuhang had taken care of him well on several occasions, now that he had an opportunity, shouldn’t he fulfill his wish?

Even though he couldn’t go too far into s.p.a.ce, going one round around the earth and looking for a bigger meteor or other things to land on before taking a picture to commemorate the trip was all within his means.

Senior White was a person who takes good care of his juniors.

Sometimes, he can be very meticulous!

❄️❄️❄️

Perhaps ‘an immediate encounter with s.p.a.ce’ incoming was a huge motivation for Song Shuhang, for he managed to quickly grasp the Turtle Breathing Technique.

The Turtle Breathing Technique was only a little more complicated than ‘Lightning Palm’. It also required qi and blood energy, and then to engrave a ‘龟息’ rune on each palm.

One had to use one’s mental energy to activate the power of the ‘龟息’ runes, and after that, putting both hands together to combine the seals of the technique would fully activate it, causing one to enter the state of turtle breathing.

Also, each ‘龟息’ rune only consists of a few simple strokes.

How should he put it… he felt that all the techniques that Venerable White taught him were very similar in how they were being used. They either required engravement of runes on the palms and the usage of mental energy to activate them, or required the user to lightly call out the name of the technique, or required combining the seals of the technique on the palms in order to perform them.
