Only at the Mahayana Stage Does the Reversal System Appear - Chapter 273
Chapter 273 Yu Feng’s Kung Fu
“Junior brother.”
As soon as Yu Feng returned, he saw his third senior brother standing at the door waiting for him.
“Third senior brother, you came here…” Yu Feng hesitated.
The third senior brother looked around like a thief, and whispered to Yu Feng: “This matter is not convenient to spread outside. Can we go inside and talk in detail?”
“Please come in.”
After entering the house, the third senior brother still did not dare to speak loudly. He lowered his voice and said: “This matter is embarrassing to say. Junior brother, can you teach me the talisman method you have mastered?”
“Third senior brother, Master should have said that this matter cannot be spread outside.”
The third senior brother pretended to be angry: “As brothers in the same sect, how can it be considered as spreading outside?”
Yu Feng was embarrassed. After thinking for a long time, he said: “Okay. But I also have a condition.”
“What?”
“Fifth senior brother gave me a copy of the ‘Spiritual Plant Handbook’. I don’t quite understand it. Senior brother, as a Jindan stage expert, can you explain it to me?”
The disciples of Tongchen Taoist are all Jindan stage cultivators. Only Yu Feng, like a found person, is in the Foundation Establishment stage.
“Let me see.” The third brother wasn’t interested in spiritual plants and hadn’t read Old Five’s “Spiritual Plant Handbook.” However, to master Yu Feng’s talisman techniques, he thought he’d learn a bit before explaining them to Yu Feng.
“This book is read backwards…” the third brother exclaimed in a low voice.
“Backwards?”
“No, it’s nothing.”
He flipped through a few chapters and was surprised to discover a hidden technique hidden between the lines. But then, considering Yu Feng was still there, he quickly pretended nothing had happened.
“Old Five, how dare you give me such a difficult book? So, I’ll read it overnight and explain it to you as soon as possible.” As he spoke, the third brother tucked the “Spiritual Plant Handbook” into his arms, his movements natural, as if it were his own book.
“Thank you, Brother. I’ll explain the talisman techniques to you,” Yu Feng said gratefully.
“It’s a piece of cake.”
An hour passed.
“Strange, why can’t I learn?”
Yu Feng thought to himself, “Of course it’s because I haven’t taught you well enough.” But he said, “Brother, you’re incredibly talented. Perhaps you haven’t yet mastered the art of talismans. Once you do, your talisman skills will improve by leaps and bounds.”
“That’s possible. In that case, I’ll come back tomorrow to learn.”
“Goodbye, Third Brother.”
After seeing off the studious and inquisitive Third Brother, Yu Feng lay back on his bed, a sigh of regret filling his heart.
“I didn’t expect to become a disciple now.”
“When should I become a disciple?” Jiang Li was curious. Yu Feng’s words seemed to differ significantly from what he knew about the future.
“It would take four years for me to become Taoist Tongchen’s disciple. Four and a half years later, Senior Brothers Three, Four, and Five rebelled. I didn’t expect this meteorite to bring me and Senior Sister closer, so I became his disciple right away.”
Yu Feng had become Taoist Tongchen’s disciple many times, and each time, he achieved Golden Core Stage status after four years.
Even in Taoist Tongchen’s eyes, even a Foundation Establishment cultivator with only three spiritual roots looked down upon. Only after reaching the Golden Core Stage would he look up to him.
Yu Feng fabricated a technique, leaving Taoist Tongchen half-convinced and half-skeptical. He then casually posed a question, giving Yu Feng an opportunity to exploit, leaving Taoist Tongchen in a dilemma. Finally, he accepted Yu Feng.
“That’s quite a discrepancy.”
Yu Feng had lived for a maximum of eight years, and now he’d caught up to half his progress.
Yu Feng, however, was thinking, “You only spend six months with your senior sister each time, but this time, you’ll be able to spend four and a half years together.
” “To reduce your risk of death, practice diligently. You’re only at the initial stage of foundation building right now.”
Yu Feng understood this and sat cross
-legged, practicing the technique Jiang Li had compiled for him. Jiang Li spent two weeks customizing a technique called “Seven-Aperture Exquisite Heart,” tailored to Yu Feng’s versatile cultivation skills. This technique allows him to multitask, utilizing multiple cultivation techniques simultaneously. For example, he could tame beasts while simultaneously using talismans to enhance their power.
He could also combine spiritual planting techniques with alchemy, so that a single medicinal herb could grow a tree full of them.
However, the latter was only theoretically possible; it had yet to be successfully implemented.
This technique could allow Yu Feng to cultivate to the level of immortality, the highest-grade technique Yu Feng had ever encountered.
Yu Feng wasn’t a cultivator of exceptional combat power, capable of challenging opponents of higher rank. He couldn’t match Qin Luan or the Luo Ying siblings.
Yu Feng’s cautious nature didn’t lend itself to impulsiveness, a surge of power with a roar. Combat relied entirely on willpower.
Repeated deaths had taught him the unpredictability of life, and he preferred to plan carefully.
However, before meeting Jiang Li, his plans couldn’t keep up, leading to his swift demise.
Now, under Jiang Li’s command, he could truly demonstrate his superiority.
Therefore, Jiang Li didn’t prescribe for him a technique that would increase his courage with each battle, creating incredible power.
Yu Feng’s left hand drew talismans in the air, while his right hand arranged formations. While its power wasn’t particularly impressive, its strength lay in its variety, making it difficult for the enemy to predict its outcome.
…
“This technique…” The third senior brother repeatedly studied the techniques hidden within the “Spiritual Plant Handbook,” and the more he studied, the more he felt it was a valuable asset: easy to master, fast to cultivate, and most importantly, compatible with his current cultivation method.
“What a good stuff! Fortunately, I reacted quickly and didn’t let my junior brother get it for free.”
“I don’t know where the fifth brother got it from.”
The third senior brother is conceited. He thinks that all good things should belong to him. Even if Senior Sister Wu Lian is more talented in the way of talismans than himself, she should not be valued by the master. After all,
Senior Sister Wu Lian is a woman and will get married. Passing the master’s inheritance to her is equivalent to passing it to an outsider. It is better to digest it internally and give it to himself.
The third senior brother feels that he has considered too much for the master. There is also the “Spiritual Plant Manual” obtained by Yu Feng, which hides opportunities. Opportunities are obtained by those with virtue. What is a virtuous person? Naturally, they are strong. As a Jindan stage, it is reasonable for him to intercept the opportunity of the junior brother in the foundation-building stage halfway. If you want to
blame someone, blame the junior brother for not noticing.
…
“Fifth Senior Brother, are these the spiritual plants you planted? They’re thriving.”
“Hmm, not bad, huh?” Fifth Senior Brother was brimming with pride. It wasn’t just thriving; in three or four years, when he’d planted them all over the sect, their roots interconnected to form a formation, you’d all see their power.
Two small, pink lotuses bloomed, brimming with vitality and a truly soothing sight.
Yu Feng, as if he’d discovered a treasure, exclaimed in surprise, “You actually have Heart-Sharing Lotuses here! I’ve been searching for them for ages and can’t find any. Can I pick two?”
Fifth Senior Brother froze. The Heart-Sharing Lotuses weren’t valuable, but their location was crucial.
To plot against Taoist Tongchen, who was in the Nascent Soul stage, a single formation wouldn’t be powerful enough. Fifth Senior Brother had set up a chain of formations, with the Heart-Sharing Grass at the center of one of them.
“Junior Brother, this Heart-Sharing Lotus is useless for those in the Foundation Establishment stage, and it won’t be used for alchemy either. You…”
Fifth Senior Brother politely declined.
Yu Feng said innocently, “But it’s beautiful. I’ll pick two. One for Senior Sister Wu Lian to thank her for taking me in, and one for me.”
Fifth Senior Brother reassured himself that it was all right. Even if the lotus flowers were gone, there were still lotus roots. Lotus roots would eventually grow from the lotus flowers.
“Fifth Senior Brother, why don’t you give me the lotus roots too? I heard they’re especially delicious.”
Fifth Senior Brother gritted his teeth. He presented himself as a well-meaning and generous cultivator. Not giving Yu Feng the lotus roots might reveal his true colors. A little impatience could ruin a great plan. Losing a key point in the formation wasn’t a big deal.
“Take it. Take it.”
