”Brother Yan is right. Compared to most people, your talent and comprehensive ability are much higher. But…” Wang Zhi changed the tone of his voice and said, ”…now is different from the past. Wanting to walk ahead of everyone else would require even more hard work. Otherwise, being caught up would be inevitable, and elimination would be the ultimate consequence. In the recent ten years, the martial geniuses that have been born were ten times more than in the past. Even in our Dragon God Heavenly Palace alone, there are countless top martial geniuses, which were all hand-picked from different regions. A lot of them had made a quite a huge progress in martial arts; while some of them had surprising potential in their will power, some of them had extreme comprehensive abilities.”
”Talent?” In Ye Chen's understanding, talent was this innate ability to learn martial arts.
Wang Shi said: ”Have you heard of spirit body?”
”Spirit body with elements!” Ye Chen remembered from the knowledge he got from the Battle Emperor, as there seemed to be something about it.
”Indeed! There are some people who are suitable to train the fire element Zhen yuan, while others are great with mud element. If you let them train another element's Zhen yuan, then it would take longer and with lesser effect. And, once their talent evolves again, then it would form the element spirit bodies, which come in different kinds. There are gold spirit bodies, wood ones, water ones, etc. People who possess the gold spirit body can train the gold Xhen yuan way faster than the others. What is even cooler, when they are training the gold perspective and gold profound, they would be faster than the others. Their bodies and souls are very suitable for the natural element of gold. One year long training would equal other warriors' years of hard work. Especially after reaching the Seas of Souls Realm, they would even have more of an advantage, since they could then comprehend the gold profound easily.”
”In my Dragon God Heavenly Palace, there is a martial genius with water spirit body. And I heard that the thunder princess from the thunder region has the thunder spirit body. As for how many more spirit bodies are there in the south region, I would have no idea.”
Ye Chen nodded, ”Don't worry brother Wang, I have never slacked for a minute.”
”Hehe, I just wanted you to know of the current situation. Actually, you have quite a huge advantage, since your talent, comprehensive abilities, and will are all very at the top. There aren't many warriors like you out there. Speaking of which, I think your Sky Cloud Martial School is not simple. Besides you, there is another warrior who just became the top warrior. Xu Jing, her talent seems even rarer; she is the top martial genius suitable to train qi power. Our leader had once said that Xu Jing had more talent in that area than even himself. It was just that she had not dug out all of her potential yet, not even ten percent! I don't know whether it is true or not.”
Yan Kui nodded, ”Our leader is very appreciative of Xu Jing, way more than the other of his disciples. I have never seen leader being so serious for anyone, not even his own children.”
Ye Chen laughed. Of course, it was a good thing for Xu Jing being appreciated. As for the Dragon Emperor's comment of her being very talented, he must have seen something in her.
”Bother Ye, our mission has been completed, so we will have to go back and report. Are you heading to the Extreme Yin Place?” Wang Shi asked.
”Yes.”
”Then, you should be careful. That place is very chaotic, and frankly, lawless. In addition, do not mess around in any of those auction houses. There are three Life and Death Realm warriors sitting behind there. Although they cannot officially show their faces there, even Life and Death Realm warriors would have to consider that and be respectful. Otherwise, we would not have to hunt down the Six Finger Man this hard, as we could have just asked the auction house to give back the treasure.”
Wang Shi reminded.
Yan Kui interrupted: ”Of course, brother Ye, you don't have to be afraid either. If anyone dares to mess with you, you can fight back. Astral Reaching Realm warriors are regarded as high level figures there. Plus, if you don't fight back, they would just bully you more.”
In that lawless place, only violence was the only solution.
The three had never met before, but they still chatted happily. However, there always would be goodbyes. So, after giving out some more tips, Wang Shi and Yan Kui flew into the distance.
”It would only be interesting with all those new martial geniuses. Otherwise, it would be too boring.”
Ye Chen had never considered the young generation as an additional pressure, since being powerful was already his goal, and the process of getting there was his life. After training closed-up for hundreds of years and then coming out to see that there was no one to fight against would make all the hard work go into nothing worthy. The value of life was in being alive, and not letting it be an empty dream.
...
At the Extreme Ying Place…
The place was filled with light black smoke at all times, mixed up with the natural qi from the ground along with other qi. Being within, people would become more and more aggressive and reckless. Then, even with a mild stimulation, the people inside would start to kill. Of course, it would be a great place to train their minds as well, since being able to keep a straight and clear mind would require a powerful will power.
At this moment, a human figure landed on the flat ground from above.
”Such a rich natural qi!”
It was a huge wasteland. Looking down from above, the black smoke poured out from the ground continuously, then scrambled and scrambled as if it were not the land but the sky. And instead of the white clouds, it was the black cloud mist there.
With Ye Chen's powerful sword intent, he could sense that the ground qi had the effect of affecting one's mind and heart. A short period of time would not change much for a warrior. But, if one stayed here for a long time, then the mind and heart would be exposed for so long that it would be inevitable for the warrior to become a different person, with a rather aggressive and evil mind.
”There are a lot of powerful warriors here. Some Seas of Soul Realm warriors seem to live here hidden as well. It is not suitable to fly too high, as that would only attract too much of unwanted attention.”
Shoo!
He turned into a beam of light, flying really low near the surface of the land.
After flying for about an hour, he saw a group of people traveling with horses and carriages from far away. But, they were not the same as the other ones he had seen before. The carriages were made with black wood, and carved with some patterns. On looking closely, it was not hard to notice a dim light traveling within the patterns, looping automatically.
”Mechanism tricks.”
Ye Chen was surprised at what he had just seen. The mechanism tricks were not as impressive as the puppet arts, but there were a lot of similarities. For example, as long as there was a power source, there would be power. If he had guessed it right, the carriages would be protected with quite strong defensive layers. Once in danger, the people and things inside the carriages would be protected perfectly, which worked the same as his puppet house. But of course, his puppet house was smarter and more advanced in design, because it required a mental mark and could be remotely controlled via mental power. Hence, it was rather convenient and better to use.
The horses pulling the carriages were not simple either. They were horse-shaped beasts called the Black Disappearing Horse. They stepped on a black smoke while running in the midair, which dragged the carriage in the air as well.
