Chapter 784: Chapter 29: Curse Killing Skill, Xia Jing Withdraws, Meng Kun Starts to Get Busy? (Da Zhang)_3

Actually, it was quite simple to explain, but if Li Boqian hadn’t pointed it out, Zhao Xing might have taken a long time to discover it.

"Thank you for the guidance, senior, I understand what to do now."

Li Boqian smiled, "This question won’t count as part of your six opportunities, consider it your hush fee. I came here in secrecy, you cannot leak this. Go to the academy and find Lu Chunhua, he will get a Ritual Repairer to cast ’Three Silences’ on you."

"Understood." Zhao Xing cupped his hands, knowing that Three Silences was the Ritual Repairer’s spell, commonly known as the silencing spell.

Li Boqian had an important task here and couldn’t be easily exposed.

...

After meeting with Li Boqian, Zhao Xing’s clone went to the dean’s office.

Lu Chunhua invited a Ritual Repairer whose realm couldn’t be discerned, to cast ’Three Silences’ on Zhao Xing.

This spell targeted the Life Soul, meaning neither the true self nor the clone could reveal Li Boqian’s location.

Zhao Xing’s true self, in the Star Palace residence, closed his eyes, pretending to rest.

He donned the Heavenly Mechanism Robe, with the Mo Shou Jade Pendant and the Soul Suppressing Bell, and entered the dream.

In the memory palace of the dream, Zhao Xing reviewed the meeting with Li Boqian.

"Li Boqian, the Grand Minister of Agriculture, has a highly regarded history, unlike the brutal Lao Liu, he’s quite gentle."

"I brushed his favorability, and these six opportunities for consultation are the reward." Zhao Xing thought to himself.

Originally, he thought it would take more effort. To his surprise, this show of sincerity in front of him earned such an opportunity.

It has to be said that apart from luck, his own strength also played a part.

If he hadn’t cultivated the Ten Thousand Skill Avatar, even entering the Secret Technique Tower might not have attracted Li Boqian’s attention.

What he said later would have sounded like empty boasting.

Cultivating the Ten Thousand Skill Avatar proved not just his intentions, but his actions matched his ambitions.

So Li Boqian said he had ’the Dao in his heart and techniques in his hands’.

"Li Boqian’s six opportunities, I must use them well, the best outcome would be to learn his ’Yuanfeng Skill’."

"However, the Yuanfeng Skill must be asked about on the last opportunity. With my current state, accepting such a legacy would be too difficult, I can’t waste the chance."

If successful, it would greatly smooth his path within the Heavenly Time Sect, his status rising rapidly!

Passing on an ultimate skill to the Heavenly Time Sect would be ’Carrying on the Extinct Skills of the Ancestors,’ an immense merit!

Although the Heavenly Time Sect already had seven ultimate skills, the value of an ultimate skill does not diminish with quantity.

"Derivation God Decision is the foundation for learning spells. My current Life Soul Seal is at three stars, improving my learning ability by more than tenfold."

"Spell affinity, spell comprehension, spell creation, deduction... These are all noticeably enhanced."

"Next, I’ll take a few days to try it out."

...

Time flew by, and soon it was December 10th.

In the Star Palace, Zhao Xing’s true self was cultivating, but this time not the Derivation God Decision, but the Heavenly Thunder Finger.

"Sizzle sizzle sizzle~"

The black thunder vortex at his fingertips appeared, incredibly stable, yet containing immense destructive power.

"The true intent of thunder’s destruction, top-level skill Heavenly Thunder Finger, finally entered the door." Zhao Xing smiled slightly and dissipated the spell.

The true self and the clone share the same Life Soul, thus their comprehension is naturally shared.

The clone’s enlightenment equaled the true self’s enlightenment; he had stayed in the Secret Technique Tower for ten consecutive days.

Meanwhile, the true self also briefly gave up on cultivating the Derivation God Decision, using the Seasonal Order to assist with comprehension.

Finally, on the tenth day in the Secret Technique Tower, he understood the Heavenly Thunder Finger to the First Turn.

"The true self has already entered, next is to let the clone get used to it." Zhao Xing thought.

The clone would surely be a bit slower than the true self.

In casting top-level skills, the true self was like seeing the world with both eyes and moving with all limbs. The clone, however, was like covering one eye and having one leg crippled.

"Based on my experience at the High Order stage, when the true self reaches the third transition of the top-level skill, the clone should be able to barely cast it."

Suddenly, the Earth Mirror hummed and vibrated.

Zhao Xing looked at it, feeling helpless:

"Sigh, King Heavenly Destiny is urging again, really... Does he think I’m slacking off?"

When Zhao Xing rested for two days, King Heavenly Destiny agreed.

After resting for five days, King Heavenly Destiny started to get uneasy.

After ten days of rest, King Heavenly Destiny constantly reminded Zhao Xing not to slack off.

The dignified King Heavenly Destiny became Zhao Xing’s cultivation supervisor.

He was afraid Zhao Xing would miss the opportunity to break the record.

"Zhao Xing, you should be cultivating, come out quickly!" King Heavenly Destiny’s voice echoed outside. "The hours you’ve spent resting already exceed ten days! Even the horses in Tuquan Palace don’t rest as much as you!"

"Sigh, I’m coming, I’m coming!" Zhao Xing sighed and flew out quickly.

...

From the third to the fourth Life Star, the difficulty increased.

Liu Tianning took more than half a year to achieve this leap.

After learning the Heavenly Thunder Finger, under the supervision of King Heavenly Destiny, Zhao Xing had to let his true self give up spell comprehension and focus entirely on cultivating the first level of Derivation God Decision.

"The Life Soul Seal at four stars could probably be achieved by January of next year." Zhao Xing thought, "I don’t know if my speed is fast or slow, or if I can finish in under three years."

Starting from the third star, he felt it increasingly difficult, taking more time.

Of course, Zhao Xing had no concrete concept of this, as King Heavenly Destiny hadn’t mentioned others’ cultivation speeds.

Among the other thirty-seven, was anyone faster than him?

What rank was he?

These were all top-secret archives.

"Seeing King Heavenly Destiny urging so much, I fear my cultivation isn’t very fast, I must work harder, and not underestimate the geniuses of Great Zhou."
