Chapter 164: Teacher Wen?
🕑 Added 2024-05-18 16:25:08 +0000 UTCSu Wen's mouth twitched.
He hadn't thought about the issue of addressing himself before, and the title of Palace Master was just made up based on the name of Wisdom Palace.
Now, hearing others call him Palace Master felt strange.
"Um, let's not call me Palace Master from now on. I'll rethink the titles for the upper and lower levels of Wisdom Palace." Su Wen said awkwardly.
Lin Dong didn't understand the situation.
Su Wen introduced him to the current situation of Wisdom Palace.
"Wisdom Palace is just starting out. If we talk about the true students it has recruited, you are the second one. Apart from you and the previous Ye Luochen, Wisdom Palace only has some of my friends and elders responsible for overseeing."
No wonder the outside world doesn't know about the existence of Wisdom Palace, turns out it's just been established.
However, with the extraordinary ability of the Book of Ten Thousand Techniques, Wisdom Palace is bound to be impressive.
Even with only four Spirit Skills, Lin Dong personally experienced its terrifying aspect.
Cheating to cultivate!
I've never heard of such a thing before.
"Wisdom Palace will soon become a renowned powerful force throughout the continent. As the second student recruited by Wisdom Palace, you have to shoulder a heavy responsibility," Su Wen said with a hopeful expression.
"Yes," Lin Dong said excitedly.
He hadn't expected to be valued so highly.
"Well, after joining Wisdom Palace, you can also access Wisdom Palace's resources," Su Wen said as he led Lin Dong to the Mountain of Books and Sea of Knowledge.
"What's this?" Lin Dong exclaimed.
As Su Wen led him into the Hall of the Mountain of Books, the whole scene seemed to flip. Now, they appeared to be at the foot of a mountain, with various books piled up on the peak.
Is this what they mean by Mountain of Books?
"All these materials, from here to the halfway point of the mountain, are what you need to study. Only by passing the assessments can you be considered qualified and take on roles within Wisdom Palace," Su Wen explained.
Lin Dong's expression was exaggerated.
Because all he could see was books.
How long would it take to learn all this?
With a wave of his right hand, Su Wen sent a book flying towards Lin Dong, merging into his mind.
After experiencing it, Lin Dong opened his eyes again, once more astonished.
"All these materials have been personally organized by me. Many external powers may not necessarily have them. Among them are basics about creating Spirit Skills and my understanding of elements. Any fundamental materials you need can be found here."
"However, these are just basics, cognitive constructions. For truly useful knowledge, you'll have to search for it yourself beyond the halfway point of the mountain."
"Alright, now that you've experienced the Mountain of Books and Sea of Knowledge, let's talk about your cultivation issues."
Lin Dong interrupted Su Wen, hesitating slightly. "Teacher Wen, about the Book of Ten Thousand Techniques..."
"Teacher Wen?"
Su Wen was momentarily stunned by Lin Dong's address. He didn't object to the title but instead showed a wry smile, looking at Lin Dong.
"Still want the follow-up to the Book of Ten Thousand Techniques?"
Lin Dong's face turned awkward as he nodded.
To be honest, the feeling of learning to create Spirit Skills under the guidance of the Book of Ten Thousand Techniques was too exhilarating.
"Another child infected by the cheat." Su Wen couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
"I have countless Spirit Skills at my disposal, but I will only teach the most basic ones in the form of the Book of Ten Thousand Techniques. As for creating your own Spirit Skills afterward, you'll have to figure it out yourselves."
Wisdom Palace has already provided them with too much information. If they can't succeed in creating their own Spirit Skills with this, then they should honestly follow the normal path of a Spirit Master.
Lin Dong nodded reluctantly.
"Now, let's continue discussing your Martial Spirit issue. The exaggeration of a thousand years for the first ring is unnecessary. In fact, as long as you surpass the limit of the first ring, which is four hundred and twenty-three years, breaking the limit and bringing about Evolution is enough to preliminarily change your Martial Spirit's aptitude. Six or seven hundred years would be good."
This was actually Su Wen's original plan.
His first ring was only a little over three hundred years, but he had Source Soul Power, which was nearly as effective in absorption as six or seven hundred years.
With this Evolution, he managed to enhance his Book Martial Spirit, which initially had qualities similar to only first-level Innate Soul Power.
In the subsequent second ring, one of a thousand years was chosen, and gradually creating a snowball effect, thus creating his top-tier Heavenly Book Martial Spirit.
"However, this means that before reaching the fourth ring, you will constantly have to bear the gap caused by the disadvantage of your Martial Spirit. This means that your cultivation speed and the power your Martial Spirit can provide will always be inferior to those Spirit Masters with excellent Martial Spirits."
Lin Dong is not Su Wen; he doesn't have powerful Spiritual Power, lacks the talent to perceive Martial Spirit Space, and cannot utilize Source Soul Power.
Therefore, following Su Wen's path would yield completely different results.
Compared to another student, Ye Luochen, the gap in the early stages would only widen over time.
"Teacher Wen, I don't know how I can absorb a thousand-year-old Spirit Ring beyond my level?" Lin Dong struggled for a long time before finally making a decision.
Since there is this suggestion, there must be corresponding solutions.
Su Wen was very satisfied with his choice.
"I have the Spirit Ascension Method, which, once learned, can alleviate about a hundred and fifty years of burden from a thousand-year-old Spirit Ring. If mastered to a profound level, it can reduce the pressure by two to three hundred years.
I have the Body Tempering Technique, which, once learned, can temper every part of a Spirit Master's body, enhancing their endurance.
In addition, I have the Visualization Method, which, through inner contemplation, can condense one's will.
Furthermore, Wisdom Palace has the Stellar Hall, which can harness the power of the stars to assist in body tempering.
Are these enough?"
Su Wen slowly revealed the assistance he could provide.
Lin Dong lowered his head, pondering over the various conditions Su Wen had just mentioned, whether they were for improving physical qualities, enhancing willpower, or reducing the impact of Spirit Ring absorption.
It's as if he's gathered all three directions of leap-level absorption of a Spirit Ring.
Indeed, the main topic of the material Su Wen had just found for Lin Dong in the Mountain of Books was about leap-level absorption of a Spirit Ring.
"Teacher Wen, Lin Dong is willing to give it a try."
"Alright."
Su Wen led Lin Dong to one of the peaks of the Three Magical Mountains.
Supervision Department.
At the peak, a grand hall stood prominently.
Around the Supervision Department hall, square boulders were arranged, drawing faint starlight.
Not only did Supervision Peak, where the Supervision Department hall was located, have this array, but the other two peaks also each had their own arrays drawing starlight.
"Your task is to cultivate and reach level ten within two years then absorb a thousand-year-old Spirit Ring. Can you do it?"
Even though Lin Dong's initial Soul Power was slightly lower than Su Wen's, his conditions were much better than Su Wen's.
Initially, Su Wen reached level ten in less than a year and a half. Then, accumulating Origin Soul Power took about another year, making him a Spirit Master in a total of two and a half years.
Lin Dong's task of becoming a Spirit Master within two years was daunting, but it wasn't without basis in Su Wen's arrangement.
"This is Internal Strength, this is External Strength, and there's also the Spirit Ascension Method and Body Tempering Technique. You should be able to quickly master the four major Spirit Skills and develop your own Fire Element Spear, thus quickly learning these four techniques," Su Wen said.
Finally done arranging Lin Dong's matters, Su Wen left Supervision Peak and arrived at Law Enforcement Peak.
Outside the Enforcement Hall, a small figure was meditating.
With Chen Xin's help, Ye Luochen obtained a first Spirit Ring close to six hundred years, his Soul Power directly reaching level twelve. After half a year of cultivation, he broke through successively, and now he has reached level fifteen.
