Chapter 6
Feng Xia’s First, Second and Third Divine Powers
“Kid… why are you awake?”
Patriarch Chenhai was flabbergasted and could not help himself from exclaiming in a low voice.
He had originally expected that it would take Feng Xia at least 10 days to get started on the “Floating Dream Three Lives Technique”, even if he had a talented soul.
As for Patriarch Chenhai…
He could do a lot of things in 10 days.
No matter how capable this young man was, he was destined to become the patriarch’s puppet. It was impossible for him to escape again.
Yet now—
It had only been two days, but Feng Xia had actually woken up!
“Bloody hell… How is the kid already up?”
Patriarch Chenhai’s eyelids kept on twitching, given that he was not prepared to possess Feng Xia yet. In fact, Feng Xia had already woken up even before he could recover from the exertion of imparting the cultivation technique!
Why was it that this kid never played by the rules!?
“I’m done.”
Feng Xia nodded and answered.
He had spent another day in that space until he felt that he had waited long enough. Then, he finally made his way out.
“You’re done?” Patriarch Chenhai had a strange expression on his face.
“I’m really done,” Feng Xia repeated earnestly.
“Ahem… Young man, tell me what you’ve comprehended.”
Seeing that Feng Xia was looking at him, Patriarch Chenhai hurriedly coughed and used his remaining strength to weave a magnificent light around his body so as to accentuate his extraordinary aura.
“I’ve comprehended a cultivation technique called the “Floating Dream Three Lives Technique”.”
Feng Xia said trustingly with a smile, “This cultivation technique has a total of 12 levels. Each step of the way is equivalent to ascending to the heavens. Moreover, every time you cultivate a level, you can master a great divine power. In the end, when the 12 types of divine powers combine together into a single power, you can open up a path to becoming a god.”
“Not bad, not bad. Your level of comprehension is… Well, I’d say you barely pass.”
In the depths of the boundless sea of clouds, Patriarch Chenhai’s lips twitched as his face convulsed and he had to force out a sentence with difficulty.
However, as he spoke, he suddenly realized that something was wrong. “Wait, you said that there are 12 levels in total?”
Feng Xia nodded slightly and said seriously, “That’s right. Every time you cultivate a level, a first-grade lotus will form in your soul. It is completed when the 12 levels are all cultivated. After that, you can cultivate a pure Yang essence soul and be with the gods.”
Feng Xia made no secret of what he knew.
In his opinion, since this old senior was the one who imparted the technique to him, no matter what he comprehended, it was impossible for him to surpass the senior’s knowledge.
It was like if a primary school student taught himself arithmetic, was there a need for the student to hide the knowledge from his teacher?
“There are 12 levels? Pure Yang essence soul? Be with the gods?”
I almost believed you!
Patriarch Chenhai’s eyes widened. As the creator of the “Floating Dream Three Lives Technique”, he knew the levels of this cultivation technique very well. From low to high, it was divided into nine levels.
What 12 levels… What nonsense!
What pure Yang essence soul and to be with the god… what rubbish!
“Heh, this kid is really smart. He probably knows that he can’t comprehend it, so he might as well come out as soon as possible. Then he pretends that he has already comprehended it and tries to pull the wool over my discerning eyes… Hmph! Just as expected of that bastard’s successor. Even if he’s the disciple who’s least valued, he’s still full of tricks!”
In the blink of an eye, many thoughts flashed through Patriarch Chenhai’s mind. He could not help but shake his head. “What a pity. To cultivate pure Yang essence soul and to be with the gods. Your bragging is a little too shocking.”
After all, as the creator of the “Floating Dream Three Lives Technique”, he only managed to reach the third level Divine Bridge Realm when he was at his peak and fighting with Wu Guan for the world.
He was still hundreds of thousands of miles away from the legendary Deity Realm!
“Senior, may I ask… could it be that my comprehension speed… is a little slow?”
Seeing that Patriarch Chenhai did not answer for a long time, Feng Xia became a little nervous.
At this moment, he felt as if he had handed in his paper too early in the examination hall, only to realize that none of his answers were the same as his classmates’ answers when he compared notes with them later…
No matter how fast he was, if he took the wrong path… it was useless to be so fast!
“Erm, it took me two days to get started. I think I’m considered average. Compared to what you achieved in the past, I’m still quite lacking.”
At this moment, Patriarch Chenhai said in a deep voice without any embarrassment, “Since you’ve already figured out the cultivation technique, let me test you. How about it?”
“Senior, please go ahead.”
Feng Xia heaved a sigh of relief and cupped his fists respectfully.
At the same time, he thought that he got it right earlier, about how comprehending the cultivation technique was only the first step. The real test had only just begun!
“I will split out a part of my essence soul and enter your zifu, the area between your eyebrows. You have a total of three chances to show me what you have learned.”
Patriarch Chenhai replied, his eyes shining brightly.
The zifu area between a person’s eyebrows was where the person’s soul resided.
Regardless whether Feng Xia had figured out the cultivation technique, or there were any flaws that he could make use of, or he had other tricks up his sleeve, as long as the patriarch invaded his zifu, he would have to hand over his body obediently!
“Senior, please go ahead.”
Feng Xia repeated without any hesitation.
Swoosh—
He felt his vision blur, and then his consciousness suddenly sank into a vast and strange space. A white-haired old man in a flowery robe was looking at him not far away.
The old man’s form was insubstantial and it was clearly not his real body.
“So this is the so-called zifu between the eyebrows… Senior, is that you?” Feng Xia showed a trace of surprise.
It had been a few days since he transmigrated, but this was the first time he had seen the face of this kind-hearted senior!
“Yes, it is me.”
The old man in the flowery robe looked around and nodded noncommittally. He said slowly, “Come on, kid. What did you comprehend? Just attack me with all your might!”
“Senior, I might not be able to grasp the power of something I just comprehended…” Feng Xia hesitated.
“What a joke. You’re only born with divine strength and a soul that is stronger than most people! You haven’t even forged a Dao Platform. No matter how talented you are, you’re only a mortal…”
Patriarch Chenhai flicked his colorful sleeve and sneered. “Although this essence soul avatar of mine is far from the one I had at my peak, it’s comparable to the eighth level Dao Platform Realm in terms of strength. Why are you being so wishy-washy?”
“In that case, senior… I apologize in advance!”
Boom!
Behind Feng Xia, the vast and heavy primeval atmosphere suddenly shook rapidly. It was like a huge wave suddenly sweeping across the calm sea!
In the vast purple air, a beautiful lotus floated over, spinning slowly and emitting a dazzling light.
It was beautiful, and deadly dangerous.
“Eh, what kind of divine power is this kid using? It looks quite beautiful… Oh no!”
Patriarch Chenhai was distracted for no reason. In the next moment, he felt a chill run down his spine. At some point, the lotus had already come near him and became incomparably huge. It was like a lotus-shaped sledgehammer smashing down on him!
Kaboom—
“Senior, this is the first divine power I comprehended from the Floating Dream Three Lives Technique—Primeval Green Lotus… Eh, senior, where did you go?”
Feng Xia looked around in confusion. Suddenly, a flash of light went past in the distance. Feng Xia could not help but rub his eyes. When he looked again, he did not see anything.
“Strange, I thought I saw that senior has been beaten into pieces and barely managed to put himself back together? Hmm… I must have made a mistake.”
Shaking his head vigorously, Feng Xia’s soul had just turned around when he saw a figure with white hair and beard, wearing a flowery robe, flying towards him.
“This blow has form but no power. If that’s all there is, you won’t pass the test.”
As Patriarch Zhenhai’s essence soul avatar had been completely shattered, he could only activate his power again to make another one. Then, he rushed over and pretended that nothing had happened. He put on a dark expression and said coldly, “Kid, what exactly have you comprehended? Just use your strongest divine power. Don’t waste time!”
The truth was he was feeling so uncomfortable that he wanted to vomit blood!
Under Wu Guan’s suppression seal, not only was it difficult for him to use all his strength, but his recovery speed was also abnormally slow. The essence soul incarnation that had been shattered by Feng Xia just now would take at least a few decades to completely recover.
Before he completely broke free from the seal, every bit of strength was extremely precious to him.
Yet, his essence soul avatar had been shattered by Feng Xia and had turned into spiritual energy. He could not take it back even if he wanted to. In the end, it could only be absorbed by Feng Xia, benefitting this bloody kid for nothing.
“No, this kid is too weird. He’s even more evil than that bastard, Wu Guan! I can’t waste any more time. The moment the kid uses his cultivation technique with all his might, he’ll expose a flaw. I’ll take the opportunity… to possess him!”
When he thought about how useless his past actions were and how he had lost another essence soul avatar this time round, Patriarch Chenhai could not help but glared ferociously. He wished he could immediately devour Feng Xia’s soul!
“Bear with it, bear with it! Lu Chenhai, you have to bear with it! As soon as you possess this kid, his body will be yours. Which part of the body won’t belong to you?”
“In that case, please take a look, senior.”
After executing the earlier attack, Feng Xia’s soul was still energetic and he did not seem to have used much energy.
Feng Xia was also a little surprised about this. He clearly felt that there was a strange spiritual energy that was extremely pure, fusing into his soul bit by bit and helping him to recover the energy he used to execute that attack just now!
“Senior really does have a sharp tongue but a soft heart. He said that my comprehension is bad, but he still secretly helps me recover so that I can maintain my optimum shape…”
Feng Xia was secretly grateful. At the same time, he said loudly, “Senior, I’ve comprehended a total of three divine powers. What I used just now was the first one. But since you’re so powerful, I’ll just directly use the third one…”
“Come, do it.”
Patriarch Chenhai forced the words through his teeth.
Kaboom—
The moment he finished speaking.
Feng Xia’s zifu shook violently again. In the chaotic primeval atmosphere, a beautiful and huge lotus spun over, emitting a suffocating smell.
Patriarch Chenhai shouted angrily when he saw that, “Not this Primeval Green Lotus move! I want you to use your strongest move!”
“Senior, don’t be anxious. This is indeed my strongest divine power.”
Rumble—
The next moment.
Another lotus floated down closely behind the first lotus.
After that, a third lotus appeared. The lotus petals rippled as it moved through the primeval atmosphere, and just like the first two lotuses, it smashed fiercely at Patriarch Chenhai’s essence soul incarnation!
“Senior, please take a look.”
“This is the third divine power I’ve comprehended—Three Primeval Green Lotuses!”
