Chapter 676: Chapter 238: Cultivation and Research

Using his understanding and guesses, combined with his Golden Finger for verification, Lin Zheyu felt that it wouldn’t take more than two days to understand it.

"Hehe..."

"I just... I just thought something happened to you..."

Huang Youwei said with a laugh.

He had been sad for a while after hearing the bad news about his master uncle.

"Don’t worry. My life is quite tenacious."

"By the way, why haven’t I seen Senior Sister Wenzi?" Lin Zheyu asked.

He had been back for days but hadn’t seen a sign of Guo Wenzi.

"Senior Aunt Wenzi and Uncle Chen Ding left the sect some time ago to join the Demon Suppression Army," Huang Youwei said.

"No wonder I haven’t seen them."

Lin Zheyu nodded.

He had heard of the Demon Suppression Army, one of the Great Wei’s most formidable troops.

This army was established to hunt demons and eradicate demonic puppets, hence the name Demon Suppression Army.

"Uncle, I heard you’ve been promoted to Transforming Force?"

Huang Youwei leaned in and asked cautiously.

He once thought Lin Zheyu would master the Primordial Infinite True Skill, rise to the top of the Hidden Dragon List, and ascend to Transforming Force with an undefeated stance as the number one among the younger generation.

Unexpectedly, there was a twist.

"Hmm."

Lin Zheyu nodded without intending to explain much.

"Huh!?"

"What a pity, with your talent and insight, there’s a great chance you could top the Hidden Dragon List in a few years."

Huang Youwei sighed, feeling sorry for Lin Zheyu.

"What’s there to pity?"

"Have you successfully consolidated your true intent, and still have time to feel sorry for your uncle?"

A familiar voice came.

Lin Zheyu looked up and saw a tall figure.

"Ah, Mrs. Gu!"

"I-I’ll be off now, I’ll come by another time!"

Huang Youwei looked up, saw Gu Ye, and hastily scurried away.

"Why is the kid so afraid of you?"

Lin Zheyu asked with a laugh.

Apart from facing his parents, he rarely saw Huang Youwei so frightened.

"Hehe, I’ve recently been teaching him the hard way, so he’s scared of me."

"Mr. Huang saw that the kid wasn’t progressing, couldn’t stand it anymore, so he asked me to discipline him well and urge him to cultivate properly," Gu Ye said with a laugh.

She sat down beside Lin Zheyu, as if she was quite familiar, glancing curiously at the ancient text Lin Zheyu was reading.

"Junior brother, why are you reading this incomplete cultivation technique?"

Gu Ye asked curiously.

The cultivation technique Lin Zheyu was currently reading was an ancient incomplete volume, named "Meridian Condensation and Acupoint Formation Skill," a technique focused on cultivating meridians and acupoints.

This technique takes a unique path, probably created by a Grandmaster whose hope for Innate advancement was gone, to further develop meridians and acupoints, aiming for another path in the Martial Dao.

However, it apparently failed.

"Just expanding my knowledge of the Martial Dao."

"After entering Transforming Force, I’ll need to expand meridians, nourish acupoints, and break through acupoints. I’m just accumulating some relevant knowledge of meridians and acupoints in advance to prepare for the future."

Lin Zheyu said with a laugh.

That was just an excuse.

Through recent research, he discovered that to condense Divine Sense, he needed the help of Spiritual Power and acupoints.

Among these, some knowledge about acupoints was quite obscure.

Lin Zheyu searched for a long time before he found this incomplete volume that had relevant descriptions.

"Truly a genius, still has energy to comprehend other texts."

"For us ordinary people, understanding the main and auxiliary techniques and cultivating them to the peak is already good enough," Gu Ye said with a teasing smile.

"Don’t make fun of me, senior sister."

"Condensing True Force shouldn’t be rushed. With so much free time every day, I need to do something to pass the time."

Lin Zheyu said with a smile.

He put away the "Meridian Condensation and Acupoint Formation Skill" and picked up the wine flask next to him, pouring a cup for Gu Ye.

"Senior Sister Wenzi and Brother Chen Ding have gone to the Demon Suppression Army. What are your plans for the future, senior sister?" Lin Zheyu asked.

The current situation in Great Wei was tense, and there was a severe shortage of manpower, especially strong manpower.

Many experts from sects and noble families were being gathered by the authorities to join different organizations.

This might not necessarily be a bad thing for them.

It’s also a considerable opportunity.

Great Wei, to cultivate strong individuals and help talented Martial Artists grow quickly, has made many resources available.

This includes various elixirs usually not accessible, elixirs that force a breakthrough to Grandmaster, and even elixirs that force a breakthrough to Innate.

As long as you have enough strength, talent, and can survive, you can quickly grow stronger in a short period.

"The Demon Suppression Army doesn’t suit me, and the sect also needs strong individuals to oversee and handle certain matters."

"My potential is nearly exhausted, so I’ll stay in the sect to handle affairs. As for the future of the sect, it depends on you young people now!"

Gu Ye said with a laugh.

Lin Zheyu couldn’t help but roll his eyes.

"By the way, is the True Force you’ve condensed strong? Let it out and let me see. I’d like to witness how a great genius’s True Force differs from us ordinary folks."

Gu Ye said teasingly.

Upon hearing this, Lin Zheyu didn’t refuse.

Under his control, a wisp of thin, strong True Force emerged from his fingertip.

In Lin Zheyu’s careful control, other intents were suppressed, and this wisp of diluted, gaseous True Essence contained only three powerful intents.

"Hmm, it truly lives up to being a great genius. To have such strong True Force just after condensing it is remarkable!"

"Condensing True Force requires a large amount of Spiritual Liquid. Do you have enough contribution points?" Gu Ye asked.

"I have enough."

"Master gave me enough contribution points to exchange for Spiritual Liquid to cultivate."

Lin Zheyu nodded in response.

He had received quite a bit recently, but they were all stored away in his storage bag.
