Chapter 674: Yang World Divine Skill

Chu Feng’s mood soured the more he listened. It turned out that for all this time, the netherworld’s breathing techniques and secret arts were all incomplete, transmitted from the Yang realm. What’s more, they were merely fragments of memories that people from the Yang realm retained after death and recalled in the netherworld.

He was speechless for a long moment. What kind of situation was this?

Finally, he slanted a glance at her and said, "You claim that the geniuses here are incredibly weak, their attacks lack any spirituality, and their combat techniques are crude and shallow. Then why don't you demonstrate your so-called divine skill for me, and let me see how spiritual it is? And you said that the Yang realm's breathing techniques are complete and defy the heavens, that a single Daoist lineage coming over could dominate the netherworld. In that case, give me a complete Yang realm breathing technique to prove it."

"Don't provoke me. If you don't believe me, then so be it. The complete breathing techniques of other great sects are the very foundation of a Daoist lineage, and I can't obtain them either. As for our clan's, alas, even I'm no exception. I have mental restrictions in my mind. If I reveal it, my mind will unravel, and I'll truly become a spirit, just like you." Fairy Xi sighed.

"Hmph, you've said so much, but it's all empty talk and bragging!" Chu Feng scoffed.

"Hey, you little devil of the netherworld, what are you saying? You don't believe me? How could I brag? I am Fairy Xi, and I never lie. And don't disbelieve me, the so-called heaven-blessed prodigies in the netherworld truly amount to nothing in our realm; they're too weak! At the very least, I can beat a hundred of them!" Fairy Xi said, chin held high, looking as if she disdained the entire netherworld.

"Alright, alright, let's fight. At the same cultivation level, let's see how you can beat a hundred of me!" Chu Feng grabbed her and started walking out of the noodle shop.

Fairy Xi struggled, shaking off his hand. "Let go! My Yang energy is severely depleted right now; I'm almost a ghost, and my body is incredibly weak. How can I fight you? Besides, you are indeed stronger than other spirits. Oh, right, your current state is what's known in legends as... a malevolent spirit! I definitely can't fight you in your current state."

"Damn it!" Chu Feng couldn't help but curse. Can a malevolent spirit be defined and explained like that?

Chu Feng tugged at her. "No way, we have to fight today. If I don't beat you until you're clutching your head and looking for your teeth on the ground, I bet you won't feel comfortable!"

"Let go! It's improper for humans and spirits to touch!" Fairy Xi shook off his hand, using a strange technique to break free, and shouted, "Chu Loli, you're taking advantage of my vulnerability! Yin energy is invading, and I'm at my weakest. No fighting now, get away from me, or I'll blast you with the Heavenly Dao Umbrella!"

Chu Feng glared at her, a little helpless.

Fairy Xi then said, "How about this? You're looking so unconvinced and irritated, so I'll teach you a divine skill. I guarantee it will benefit you for life and let you experience how truly amazing a genuine Yang realm technique can be."

Upon hearing this, Chu Feng’s heart stirred, and he immediately smiled. "Good, if you teach me a divine skill, I won't beat you until you're looking for your teeth on the ground."

Fairy Xi glared at him. "Pah, your words are so unpleasant. If this were in the Yang realm, with my temper, I'd definitely throw you into a pill-refining furnace to be steamed for three days and three nights!"

Then, she began to frown, recalling carefully. "It's a real headache. Although I have many divine skills in my mind, none of them can be taught externally; they are all top-tier family secrets. Sigh, let me think..."

She pondered, looking very troubled. Finally, Fairy Xi looked up and said, "Got it! There's a combat technique I haven't mastered very well, but I've finally recalled the complete incantation. I'll teach that to you."

Chu Feng's eyes immediately lit up. Was this girl from the Yang realm really going to teach him a so-called divine skill? However, he also had serious doubts. "Are you reliable? If it's a divine skill, how could you almost forget the incantation? Don't you practice it much?"

Fairy Xi pouted, a look of disdain on her face. "Hmph, I have so many divine skills in my family that I can't even finish practicing them all. There are too many choices. Why would I bother with such a commonplace technique?"

"What the hell!" Chu Feng immediately became annoyed, almost cursing aloud. "You're trying to fool me into learning something commonplace, and you accidentally let it slip, didn't you?!"

"What are you talking about? When I said 'commonplace,' I didn't mean it that way. I meant a technique that doesn't involve mental restrictions and isn't an exclusive divine skill in the Yang realm; quite a few people know its incantation. But it's genuinely powerful; it's a quasi-divine skill. No, if mastered, it truly becomes a divine skill." Fairy Xi quickly corrected herself when she saw Chu Feng's displeased expression. "The reason some call it a quasi-divine skill is because many people know it, so it's not exclusive. Also, it's too difficult to master; most people can't get the hang of it."

Chu Feng's expression flickered uncertainly. He realized that Fairy Xi was also quite good at bluffing, truly shameless, and far from innocent.

"Then don't learn it! Still picking and choosing!" Fairy Xi mumbled, her chin held high, looking arrogant and disdainful of Chu Feng.

Chu Feng said, "I'll learn it. Let me see how powerful this so-called quasi-divine skill is, and if it has enough spirituality."

Fairy Xi corrected him. "Remember, this truly is a divine skill, but whether you can evolve it to the realm of divine mastery depends entirely on your personal talent. Chu Loli, I have high hopes for you, you know."

Then, the two went to an uninhabited area of this planet. Fairy Xi secretly transmitted the incantation to him.

She then pointed a finger, and some mental imprints flew into Chu Feng's mind. Even for what she called a "commonplace" divine skill, she was very serious, worried about it leaking to others in the netherworld.

Fairy Xi spoke very solemnly: "Divine skills all have significant origins and deep implications. They cannot be easily taught to others, as they are of great consequence. Fortunately, the dynasty that possessed the Lightning Fist has fallen. Otherwise, if their dynasty's ultimate secret art were leaked, even in the netherworld, they would send people to hunt down the perpetrator; they would not allow a divine skill to be divulged!"

And then... Chu Feng was captivated!

This truly was an astonishing technique. Every move he made naturally became faster. When performing this fist technique, his fists propelled his body forward, accelerating him. He couldn't help but move fast; it was terrifying. He was actually being guided by the fist-marks.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

In this mountain range, many fierce birds and beasts were startled and looked up, seeing lightning flash and thunder rumble, with streaks of lightning streaking across the sky, incredibly dazzling.

"Is it going to rain? There are no dark clouds. Why is there lightning and thunder?" A mud eel spirit in a muddy pond looked up, greatly puzzled.

In the distance, a pterosaur trembled, descended from the sky, and lay dormant in its nest on the cliff, not daring to make a sound, because it saw from the sky that it was a young man practicing a fist technique!

In the mountains, Fairy Xi muttered to herself, "How did this little devil master it so quickly? Is the netherworld suitable for practicing the Lightning Fist? Is it very suited to the divine skill of that former tyrannical dynasty?"

She was quite astonished, because Chu Feng had already taken proper form and was moving incredibly fast, his fist energy streaking across the mountain ranges like lightning across the sky.

"Excellent! I really like this combat technique; its power is truly astonishing!" When Chu Feng stopped, he was very happy, filled with immense joy.

Especially when combined with the Daoist Requisitioning Breathing Technique, the Lightning Fist was performed even faster; they seamlessly merged, becoming even smoother, with concentrated energy surging, causing the fist technique's power to multiply!

Now Chu Feng strongly suspected that the Daoist Requisitioning Breathing Technique really came from the Yang realm. Otherwise, why would it integrate so perfectly with a Yang realm fist technique? It was too suitable!

Then, he shamelessly said, "Beautiful, lovely, generous, and invincible Fairy Xi, do you have anything else to teach me? Please shower me with all your divine skills! I promise to humbly accept them and practice them one by one!"

Fairy Xi was stunned, but immediately spoke again. "How can your skin be so thick? Do you think these are common vegetables? These are divine skills! Do you know what a divine skill is? They are supreme combat techniques, the un-transmittable secrets of various sects! This was the ultimate secret art of a once invincible dynasty. If that dynasty hadn't fallen, who would dare teach you? That would create an irreconcilable, unending enmity with that dynasty. I tell you, a divine skill, even a partial technique, if leaked, could cause immense ripples and lead to great disaster! Be content. You still foolishly want more. Just getting the Lightning Fist is an immense stroke of luck. Even in our Yang realm, divine skills are extremely rare and must not be divulged!"

Chu Feng looked sheepish. "Isn't it because my talent is too amazing and I want to challenge my limits, to see how many divine skills I can learn? If that's the case, then never mind."

Fairy Xi was very stern, formally warning him, "Even so, if you ever enter the Yang realm someday and reincarnate, you must remember not to reveal that I taught you the Lightning Fist!"

Chu Feng was startled. Didn't that dynasty fall? Did she still need to be so cautious?

Fairy Xi was very serious. "For such a tyrannical dynasty, who knows if they were truly annihilated or if there's a chance they could rise from the ashes? If they ever make a comeback, they will definitely investigate. Obtaining such a divine skill is a great fortune, but also a great calamity!"

Seeing her so solemn, Chu Feng also became serious. Then, he began to further comprehend this divine skill. He had to admit it was exquisitely profound! His fist-marks glowed brilliantly, Yang energy surged, and its power was unparalleled!

Furthermore, his speed was skyrocketing. He had to use the Horizon at Hand technique, otherwise, it was as if his fists were propelling his body, astonishing him.

This fist technique almost had a demonic quality!

Was he controlling the fist technique? It was more like the fist technique was pulling him along!

Fairy Xi said, "Do you feel it? This divine skill is so mysterious it's almost eerie. The feeling is indescribable; one can only truly grasp it by experiencing it oneself."

Chu Feng nodded. This fist technique was indeed terrifying. His entire being was propelled by it, and the more he practiced, the more unfathomable it seemed.

Eventually, Chu Feng soared into the air, performing the fist technique, and his fist light streaked across the sky, astonishing the world!

Soon after, they set off, leaving this planet and traveling along the star path.

At this time, a piece of news erupted in the star sea: a new Cosmic Rankings had appeared, targeting young powerhouses in their twenties within this universe, and there was also a ranking for older prodigies in their forties and fifties.

"Those named on the list will encounter great fortune!"

"This... it's related to the shattered universe in the chaos. Something big is about to happen!"

"Regardless of constitution, only combat prowess matters. The star sea is about to become lively!"

People discussed animatedly, all talking about these Cosmic Rankings.

"It seems to be connected to the Yang realm!"

"Currently, Unaltered Divine Bodies, Great Evolution Combat Bodies, Primal Dao Bodies, and others have emerged. The direct disciples cultivated by the top ten powers are all about to be challenged. Who will rank higher? Only battle will tell!"

In the star sea, a ripple of unrest spread, impossible to calm.

It's Mid-Autumn Festival. I wish everyone happiness, family reunions, bliss, peace, and good fortune.
