Chapter 121: Chapter 121: Magical Cultivation Technique, Blink Shield

After Feng Xun left, Ye Lingyue occasionally helped with the affairs of Drunk Immortal Inn, spending most of her remaining days cultivating in Hong Meng Heaven.

During this period, Ye Lingyue and Lan Cai’er had several sparring sessions.

At the age of fifteen, Lan Cai’er had participated in the Imperial Examination of Daxia, securing the tenth place, which proved that her talent and dedication far exceeded those Ye Family Disciples Ye Lingyue knew.

Ye Lingyue and Lan Cai’er had more than ten bouts, and what frustrated Ye Lingyue was that she never won once. The only time she fought to a draw with Lan Cai’er was because she used spiritual power.

Of course, this was under the condition that Ye Lingyue did not use the Blood Pattern Dagger and Siamese Ghost Smoke. If she really put up a fight, using these tricks, she could still defeat Lan Cai’er.

Yet Ye Lingyue had already decided that unless she was in grave danger, she would keep some life-saving tricks up her sleeve.

"Ling Yue, I must say, your martial arts foundation is solid. However, your martial arts focus too much on offense. If you face a weaker opponent, you can rely on aggressive attacks to gain the upper hand, but if you encounter someone with two Martial Realms higher cultivation than you, blind attacks and neglecting defense can easily put you at a disadvantage." Lan Cai’er, the general’s daughter, pinpointed Ye Lingyue’s shortcomings right after their sparring session.

After some reflection, Ye Lingyue also felt that Lan Cai’er was right.

All she learned were the eight to nine Tier Martial Arts from the Ye Family, and among these techniques, Thunderclap Fist and Flower Pinching Jade Shattering Hand were mainly offensive, even her cultivation in spiritual power was also predominantly offensive.

But once she faced someone proficient in higher martial arts like Lan Cai’er, those were of no use.

Not to mention someone like Hong Mingyue from Hong Residence, who had reached the Elixir Realm.

Thinking of this, Ye Lingyue couldn’t help feeling somewhat melancholic.

In terms of martial arts, there were no new techniques that suited her at the moment, and she wondered if there were any corresponding Spiritual Power Jade Engravings for spiritual power.

Thinking of Spiritual Power Jade Engravings, Ye Lingyue just remembered that today was her due date for submitting the Blue Striped Elixir. According to the rules of the Alchemist Association, every member of the Li City Alchemist Association was required to submit ten Blue Striped Elixirs every month.

Why not take this opportunity to ask President Liao, perhaps he knew of some defensive spiritual power cultivation techniques.

Carrying ten Blue Striped Elixirs, Ye Lingyue went to the Alchemist Association.

After submitting ten Blue Pattern Xuanyin Elixirs, Ye Lingyue found President Liao and inquired about defensive spiritual power techniques.

"Defensive power techniques are indeed important for us Alchemists. I happen to have a defensive Spiritual Power Jade Engraving suitable for Third Rank Alchemists and above to learn, but well..." President Liao left a cliffhanger.

Ye Lingyue had dealt with President Liao several times and knew that this elderly man was not as honest as he seemed.

"If the President has any requests, please feel free to state them directly," Ye Lingyue said with a wry smile.

"Actually, it’s quite simple. The Blue Pattern Xuanyin Elixirs you refine are much more effective than those refined by other Alchemists. I just happen to need a batch of about a hundred Blue Pattern Xuanyin Elixirs. I hope you can refine them for me." Seeing that Ye Lingyue had seen through his thoughts, President Liao chuckled twice. After all, Ye Lingyue had once tricked him with Little Zhiyo, and he had to gain back some face.

Besides, it wasn’t his fault. The person who wanted the Xuanyin Elixirs was very picky, and ordinary Xuanyin Elixirs just wouldn’t do.

In the entire Alchemist Association, it’s Ye Lingyue who has the best technique for refining Xuanyin Elixirs. However, she never crafts them within the Alchemist Association, but each time she produces a batch of Blue Striped Elixirs, their effects are twice as good as those of other people. Moreover, it’s said that her refining speed is also very fast.

"This matter is easy to handle. However, the Xuanyin Jade Ore needed for crafting the elixir must be provided by the Association. For one hundred Blue Pattern Xuan Yin Elixirs, roughly one thousand pieces of top-grade Xuanyin Jade Ore will be required," Ye Lingyue stated without even a wrinkle of her brow.

Ever since the Qian Cauldron became the Five Elements Water Cauldron, Ye Lingyue’s crafting of elixirs was not only faster, but the quality had improved as well.

Initially, it took Ye Lingyue two pieces of Xuanyin Jade Ore to refine one Blue Striped Xuanyin Elixir, but now, she could produce two Blue Striped Xuanyin Elixirs with just one piece of Xuanyin Jade Ore.

Of course, she would absolutely not tell President Liao about this.

After all, this old geezer had extorted her, and what irritated her the most was being threatened by others. As for the extra high-quality Xuanyin Jade Ore, she regarded it as her labor fee.

Seeing Ye Lingyue agree without hesitation, President Liao even thought he had gotten the better deal. True to his word, he immediately took out a Spiritual Power Jade Engraving and gave it to Ye Lingyue.

"The cultivation technique recorded on this Jade Engraving is a defensive one. Speaking of which, it is a unique technique that I came to understand after summarizing my experiences from living most of my life. As long as you practice properly, even if you face the attack of an Innate Expert, you will be able to withstand it. What’s more, this spiritual defense will improve as your cultivation level increases," President Liao said with a hint of pride when he talked about his own technique.

Ye Lingyue couldn’t wait to take the Spiritual Power Stone Carving. With a sweep of her spiritual power, a new spiritual power technique indeed took shape in her mind.

"Blink Shield? President, you’re not conning me, are you?" When Ye Lingyue saw this peculiar name, she couldn’t help but be taken aback.

The name didn’t sound like any profound technique, presumably it was just made up by President Liao on the spot.

"Young girl, you can’t just say anything recklessly. Once you learn this life-saving Blink Shield, you will realize how powerful it is," President Liao said, puffing up his beard and glaring with his eyes when he heard her.

After acquiring the technique, Ye Lingyue began to immerse herself in intensive practice.

She had already learned to control the Dragon Saliva Needle and the Flying Dagger to attack the enemy, but using spiritual power to condense into a Spirit Shield was an unprecedented first.

The so-called Blink Shield, as the name implies, is about condensing a barely visible Spirit Shield with spiritual power in the blink of an eye when facing an enemy attack, in order to avoid their assault.

"Gathering Spirit as Shield," Ye Lingyue silently recited the mnemonic of Blink Shield. However, every time she tried to condense the spiritual power into a Spirit Shield, it would disperse before taking shape.

Only then did Ye Lingyue realize that, as President Liao had said, Blink Shield was indeed not easy to learn.

So she practiced for two or three days.

"Gathering Spirit as Shield," with a thought of her divine sense, the air in front of Ye Lingyue began to distort.

A large amount of spiritual power compressed together, and a Spirit Shield the size of a fist tremulously appeared in front of Ye Lingyue.

Unfortunately, the fist-sized Spirit Shield, not long after formation, dispersed again within the span of two breaths.

Until Ye Lingyue practiced to the point of depleting all the spiritual power in her body, her Spirit Shield could finally be maintained for half a minute.

"No time like the present. I’ll go find Sister Lan today for another sparring match to see if I have a chance of winning this time," Ye Lingyue wiped the sweat from her forehead and immediately decided to seek out another bout with Lan Cai’er.
