Chapter 282 - 282 40 Stealing the Sky and Changing the Day

Chapter 282: Chapter 40 Stealing the Sky and Changing the Day Chapter 282: Chapter 40 Stealing the Sky and Changing the Day The man in black left in a state of utter disarray.

His original intention for coming here was merely to probe the situation.

If the little pine tree wouldn’t agree to help, he would have had to abandon the plan; because he couldn’t afford to provoke Supreme Mountain on his own and he didn’t want to give up his long-established base in Yuezhou.

If he were to be attacked again, even if he could escape by a stroke of luck, how long would it take to rebuild a new home?

However, now that the tree agreed to help, the scenario changed entirely. It was almost foolproof.

The man in black was indeed Sky Stealer.

In the entire world, even Feng Yin, who had enlightened the little pine tree, was not as proficient in exploiting this spirit resource as Sky Stealer was.

Hence, Sky Stealer left feeling at ease and joyful.

Finding an unbeatable position was just that simple!

Even if Supreme Mountain were incredibly powerful and unmatched in the world, it would never think that I could lay such a superb piece, invisibly.

Could you ever imagine that while you are chasing me, a tree is covering for me?

Heh heh…

…

They watched as the man in black walked away.

Feng Yin then looked at Zhuang Weiran: “Uncle Zhuang, do you know this man’s background?”

“Yes, well, to be precise, this man’s identity and background are here in Yuezhou.”

As an experienced figure in the picaresque world, Zhuang Weiran had researched Yuezhou City more than once. How could he miss such a prominent figure as the rich man of Yuezhou?

“This man is the most low-key tycoon in Yuezhou City, Ding the Landlord, Ding the Rich. His real name is Ding Xiaoqian!”

Zhuang Weiran squinted at the image of the man in black formed on the bark of the tree, and muttered this as if groaning.

Because Zhuang Weiran had once ventured out at night to prowl around the houses of various tycoons.

And he had more or less made a profit from each one.

Only in the house of Ding the Landlord did he fail and return empty-handed.

It’s not that Ding the Rich was a false title. Each of the three rooms in his house was filled with treasures, proving his massive wealth was no lie. But what is Zhuang Weiran? How could mundane wealth attract his attention?

He would consider the usual gold and silver as a burden, too heavy and taking up too much space. Ding the Rich’s rooms were filled with gold and silver, but there were hardly any precious stones.

When Zhuang Weiran returned, he had once cursed: This pauper calling himself the Rich doesn’t have anything valuable, what a shameful tycoon!

But now, he understood. It wasn’t that they didn’t have these treasures, most likely he just didn’t find them.

Think about it. Who could steal from Sky Stealer?

That would be like a thief’s ancestors being robbed, it was just inviting disaster, right?

Furthermore, those thieves who really have skills, basically had the same idea as Zhuang Weiran, they can’t bear the weight of too much gold and silver, so how much could thieves without any real skills take?

These things are really heavy!

This is the real protective measure of someone who truly knows about theft, truly deserving of reputation!

“I actually impersonated Sky Stealer right under the eyes of Sky Stealer…” Zhuang Weiran coldly sweated at the realization.

Luckily, it was only once.

And more fortunately, the man had his guard down, and was caught off guard by his sudden impersonation.

Otherwise, considering the man’s agility, even if he had followed Zhuang Weiran all the way home, Zhuang Weiran might still not have known.

If the man had turned around and reported him then…

“Damn…that was so close.”

Zhuang Weiran wiped a bead of sweat.

Hu Lengyue snorted: “I told you, you had no good things coming. You barely recovered some strength and then like a buffoon, you go around stirring up trouble. Are you afraid now?”

Zhuang Weiran looked at Hu Lengyue innocently: “At that time, I remember you praising me for doing well…hiss hiss hiss…”

Hu Lengyue put down her hand, casually saying: “First look at this secret body method, to see if it’s real.”

“Would he have prepared a fake one beforehand?”

The three of them came together, opened the secret manual, and began to study it line by line.

“Stealing the Sky and Changing the Day.”

This was the name of the secret manual, apparently the name of the technique. Behind it, there was an introduction for the footwork.

After studying it for a while, Zhuang Weiran and his wife looked up at the same time and exchanged glances.

The secret manual, the technique, the cultivation method, they were all real.

However, not everyone can cultivate it.

The hardest obstacle among them is the flow of spiritual energy in the meridians.

Let me clarify: the spiritual energy in a person’s meridians always flows clockwise. The more it flows, the faster it flows, the stronger the person’s cultivation and fighting power.

During a battle, the flow of spiritual energy is usually several times more intense than during normal cultivation.

Therefore, there are often situations where one feels “powerless” or “out of spiritual energy”.

In this clockwise flow, once the spiritual energy flows in reverse, one is likely to be injured, and in severe cases, even die.

Generally, we call this situation: deviating from the true path!

Therefore, the spiritual energy of ordinary people, or rather, of all people, always circulates according to a certain rule through the same path.

There can be no flow in reverse – as there is only one Dantian for humans!

But the flow of spiritual energy in Sky Stealer starts from the Yongquan point on the sole of the foot, drawing in the energy of the earth; but that’s not a problem.

However, when he draws in the energy of the earth, the Mud Marrow Palace at the top of his head also simultaneously begins to absorb the spiritual energy in the air.

This creates a kind of opposition: one wave flows up, one wave flows down!

Logically speaking, when this happens, the moment the two sources of spiritual energy collide inside the body would be the moment of one’s death – a collision between heaven and earth; could you survive?

But Sky Stealer didn’t die. Not only did he not die, but he also created something like a whirl of air akin to the Yin-Yang fish in his Dantian.

The spiritual energy from his feet flows upwards after half a circle, while the spiritual energy from his head flows downwards after half a circle…

Amazingly, these two do not intrude upon each other!

“This is insane…there’s such a thing in this world!”

Zhuang Weiran read it with goosebumps.

Just one glance at this method makes one feel as if they’ve already taken a step into hell.

Not to mention cultivate according to this.

No wonder there’s only one Sky Stealer in the human world, and only he could cultivate such a heaven-defying technique.

In this case, it’s a surprise he’s not fast.

The energies of heaven and earth were colliding within his body…could you not be fast?

Especially when fully activated, it’s no longer a question of wanting to speed up. The enormous force created by the fierce collision between heaven and earth would be urging you to go faster even if you wanted to slow down!

Of course, it also takes a long time of practice to achieve this.

But this, said to be Sky Stealer’s unique technique, certainly wasn’t touted without reason!

No wonder this guy casually tossed out his unique secret manual, because he was sure, even if you had it, it would be of no use!

You can’t practice it!

If people can’t practice it, let alone a tree.

Feng Yin was also left in the fog: Can this be practiced?

His own Spiritual Transformation Technique… I wonder if it can manipulate it in this way?

Thus, he had a sudden idea to give it a try.

But this idea could not be shared, if he said it out, Zhu Weiran would probably desperately stop him.

Feng Yin had confidence in the Spiritual Transformation Technique to protect his life, so naturally dared to try, but Zhu Weiran and his wife didn’t know this.

Attempting to part his spiritual energy, some from below rushed up, huh?

It works!

Then he gritted his teeth, began to attract the spiritual energy from above, and the result…. a cool sensation flowed down from his head….

Holy shit!

It works!

Feng Yin’s eyes widened.

Carefully follow the meridian path on the secret manual, one upward, one downward….

Slowly approaching, then using the spiritual energy vortex in the Dantian as the Sky Stealer’s energy vortex, he began to mobilise it….

The next moment, both spiritual powers touched the vortex at the same time.

The critical moment had arrived.

Then….

Feng Yin’s eyes widened.

Because, the moment these two spiritual energies touched the vortex, they naturally started rotating with it, one after another, the upward one continuing upward, the downward one continuing downward….

In the meridian channels, one was progressing smoothly, the other was going against the flow, just like two armies meeting on a narrow mountain road.

They passed by each other methodically, each on one side.

Arriving at their final destinations and completing one full cycle, it was surprisingly easy.

A feeling of being able to rise quickly welled up within him.

It seemed that in this moment, there was a force pushing him from behind! He needed only to think, and he could dart off at a rapid pace!

Moreover, this speed was much faster than his so-called ‘Catkin Body Technique’.

“This is so easy?”

Feng Yin was stunned.

Looking again at this technique, the introduction to the body techniques, and how to control the speed, etc….

Everything felt so easy.

After flipping through this book, Feng Yin was surprised to find that he learned everything.

All he lacked was practice.

Putting the manual in his bosom, Feng Yin still felt like he was dreaming.

“Shall we go?”

Zhu Weiran asked.

“Okay.”

Feng Yin was in a daze….

After bidding goodbye to the small pine tree and on the way back, Zhu Weiran displayed his body technique, Hu Lengyue followed suit, and unknowingly….

Suddenly, the couple was taken aback.

Because they found… Feng Yin’s body technique had changed.

It was even lighter and more graceful, seemingly effortless but very fast.

“???”

Zhu Weiran mumbled in his mind, and couldn’t help but speed up.

Result… Feng Yin still kept up.

Speed up again…

Still caught up, not falling behind.

Speed up once more…

This time it was bad, Feng Yin stimulated his body technique and suddenly overtook Zhu Weiran’s couple.

His body technique was light, and without causing any wind noise, like a ray of light shooting out.

Everything was natural.

This posture, was identical to Sky Stealer’s power!

“Burp!”

Zhu Weiran swallowed his saliva, his internal energy suddenly became chaotic, and he fell from the sky.

Hu Lengyue also couldn’t hang on, she watched stunned as her husband fell from the sky.

Feng Yin was startled and hurriedly turned back.

“What’s wrong?”

Feng Yin asked.

“What’s wrong!?” Zhu Weiran stared at Feng Yin as if he had seen a ghost, stammering: “You, you…. did you learn Sky Stealer’s technique, Stealing the Sky and Changing the Day?”

Feng Yin scratched his head: “I just tried it a little bit… unexpectedly, it worked….”

“Hehehe….”

Zhu Weiran laughed as if he wanted to cry.

What can you say to that?

He took one look and confirmed that it’s body technique that absolutely no one else could learn!

Quite true!

Feng Yin also took a glance.

And he confidently learned it.

“The gap between people… is it really this big?”

Zhu Weiran lamented: “I… I also have two shoulders supporting a head….”
