“Is this really just a wandering cultivator?”
Wang Ye watched Fang Yang, who was hanging upside down on a rope, walking swiftly and steadily, and was secretly startled.
“Even those with a lineage of masters can't make Qi as refined as this. This kid Fang Yang, his talent is truly amazing…”
“Zhang Chulan has another formidable opponent. After the preliminaries, the Heavenly Master will be in a tough spot. I wonder how he'll entertain this suddenly appearing cultivator!”
“Tonight, I'll find a chance to visit the Heavenly Master and discuss it with him.”
Wang Ye sighed.
“Ugh, what a mess. I'm such a lazy person, but I've been running myself ragged for the sake of the world of Yi Ren!”
At the scene of the Heavenly Ceremony.
Registration, drawing lots.
The Heavenly Master Zhang Zhi Wei announced the start of the competition.
Fang Yang and Wang Ye stood together.
“Brother Fang, what number did you draw?”
“Jia, Azure Dragon!”
“First round, huh? I'm Ding Xuan Wu, I'm not in a hurry. Come on, let's go and cheer you on.”
Wang Ye's cheering was a pretense, he really wanted to probe Fang Yang's strength.
However, he was quickly disappointed.
Because from beginning to end, Fang Yang only used one technique.
Multi-Shadow Clone Technique!
He directly created thirty shadow clones, draining the Qi of the other three contestants on the stage!
But this still left Wang Ye in shock.
“Is that… a technique from the Japanese ninja?”
He didn't know much about ninjutsu, but he knew that ordinary ninjas could only create one or two clones at most.
But Fang Yang was able to create thirty clones at once, and he still seemed to have plenty of leeway, far from reaching his limit.
This was astonishing!
When Fang Yang returned, Wang Ye couldn't wait to ask his question.
“Brother Fang, what you used just now, was it Japanese ninjutsu?”
Fang Yang grinned.
“That's right, I did learn it from a Japanese ninja. After all, I'm a wandering cultivator, I can only piece together knowledge from different sources.”
But this smile, in Wang Ye's eyes, contained a hint of killing intent!
“Learned from a Japanese ninja? You want to learn, and he teaches you? It must have been a case of killing and stealing treasure, right?”
Wang Ye thought to himself.
For a wandering cultivator, without any luck, it's extremely difficult to rise to prominence.
Killing and stealing treasure isn't unheard of.
Moreover, he killed a Japanese ninja, so Wang Ye didn't care.
He just thought that Fang Yang's threat level had been raised several notches.
Next, Fang Yang and Wang Ye witnessed Zhang Chulan's "shameless" moment.
Yi Mo She, Xiao Xiao, who practiced "Xǐng Qi", competed on the stage.
Seeing Xiao Xiao use the two words "Hmm" and "Hah" as a mantra, he exhaled Qi, which could temporarily blast a person's soul out of their body.
Outside the stage.
Fang Yang's talent for enlightenment activated!
［You watched the Yi Ren Xiao Xiao use "Xǐng Qi", and comprehended the "Hmm" mantra, progress 10%!］
［You watched the Yi Ren Xiao Xiao use "Xǐng Qi", and comprehended the "Hah" mantra, progress 10%!］
…
Fang Yang kept trying.
Hmm!
Hah!
Hmm!
Hah!
Wang Ye was speechless on the side.
He had been watching for a few minutes.
This guy Fang Yang, to think he wants to learn "Xǐng Qi" just by watching, that's too far-fetched, right?
Without a method of channeling Qi, relying solely on the two words "Hmm" and "Hah" is useless.
But seeing Fang Yang practicing seriously, Wang Ye was 100% convinced that this guy was definitely a wandering cultivator.
If he had a complete lineage, he wouldn't be so pathetically trying to steal skills at the Heavenly Ceremony.
Just when he was about to advise Fang Yang.
Fang Yang's progress in comprehending the "Hmm" and "Hah" mantras barely reached 50%!
It seemed like he could use it.
Hmm!
A massive flow of Qi instantly shot out of Fang Yang's nostrils, transforming into a roaring gale that spread outwards.
Wang Ye was closest to Fang Yang, and he was the first to be hit by the gale. His clothes billowed, his hair flew, and he felt dizzy.
Hah!
Even more intense Qi erupted from Fang Yang's mouth.
Wang Ye was hit again.
He felt his soul agitated, like it was about to run out of his body.
“Damn it, Fang Yang, are you serious?”
Wang Ye immediately stabilized his soul, his eyes looking at Fang Yang in shock.
Like he was looking at a deity!
What the hell, this is some kind of immortal reincarnation, right?
Just by observing someone else's technique with his eyes, he can learn it on his own?
What the hell kind of outrageous talent is this?
“This man, with only the status of a wandering cultivator, has such strength, this talent… unprecedented in a thousand years!”
“They say the Heavenly Master is the top Yi Ren, perhaps even he didn't have such mind-blowing talent when he was young?”
“No wonder I couldn't figure out his origins. With this talent, he's practically a living immortal!”
Wang Ye was filled with shock, even a little bit of horror!
But a surge of enthusiasm rose in his heart.
“If I could bring Brother Fang back to Wudang…”
“If I could let him witness my Wind Master's Qi Men, I wonder how much he could comprehend…”
“Right, I should bring Brother Fang to see Zhuge Qing's match, to see if he can comprehend the Martial Marquis' Qi Men!”
Wang Ye had a plan.
“There's someone in the next round I'm really interested in, Brother Fang, do you want to go take a look?”
“Who?”
“Bing, Vermilion Bird, Zhuge Qing!”
“Okay.”
Fang Yang also wanted to see if he could comprehend a bit of the Martial Marquis' Qi Men.
The two of them arrived at the Bing stage.
The three Yi Ren fighting against Zhuge Qing were one with hardened flesh, one who could control the wind, and one who used chain darts.
The three of them attacked Zhuge Qing together!
As Zhuge Qing stomped his foot on the ground, Fang Yang's talent for enlightenment activated again.
［You watched the Yi Ren Zhuge Qing use the Martial Marquis' Qi Men, and comprehended Qi Men Dun Jia, progress 1%!］
［You watched the Yi Ren Zhuge Qing use the Martial Marquis' Qi Men, and comprehended Qi Men Dun Jia, progress 5%!］
［You watched the Yi Ren Zhuge Qing use the Martial Marquis' Qi Men, and comprehended Qi Men Dun Jia, progress 10%!］
So slow!
Fang Yang was disappointed.
As expected, for a higher level technique, relying only on observation is simply not enough to comprehend!
“However, it seems worth a try.”
Fang Yang closed his eyes and took a step.
Qi instantly filled the area around him, forming a Ba Gua array!
This one step, immediately made Wang Ye aware of it.
“Damn it, this is possible?”
As the inheritor of the Wind Master's Qi Men, Wang Ye immediately sensed that a Qi Men array had formed, with Fang Yang as the central palace!
“Amazing, truly amazing. I, Wang Ye, consider myself to be not inferior to anyone in the younger generation, and I was once pleased with myself for comprehending the Wind Master's Qi Men, but…”
“Compared to Fang Yang, my talent is truly ordinary!”
Wang Ye was shocked, but he also secretly felt distressed.
“Having such a formidable person participate in the Heavenly Ceremony, the Heavenly Master's plan is bound to fail!”
“This will cause a chain reaction, which might be a disaster!”
“Ugh, it's all Lu Lao Ye's fault, if you didn't take out the Heavenly Tome, this mess wouldn't have happened!”
Wang Ye felt a little resentful in his heart.
“No, the sky is falling and there's someone tall enough to hold it up, I'm just a junior, I can't bear this heavy burden.”
“I'll go visit the Heavenly Master tonight, hopefully he can come up with a solution!”
