The King of Urban Mercenaries
Chapter 1625 - 1630: Deliberate Incompleteness
The first person to complete the cultivation, after reading it, left here in confusion. According to this person, the lower part is utterly different from the upper part.
The first part is very simple, which is why Lin Fei divided it into two parts. Additionally, at Leng Daoqiu’s request, Lin Fei went into secluded cultivation for another three months to perfect the cultivation technique he created, then inscribed it on the massive mountain wall of the Beidou Sect for those willing to cultivate it.
However, those who have cultivated Leng Daoqiu’s technique feel that this technique might not suit their taste, so they are not prepared to cultivate Lin Fei’s technique.
And Lin Fei’s disciple, Gu Mang, sat in front of the mountain wall for half a month, and finally left the stone wall to find Lin Fei.
"What do you want with me?" Lin Fei was meditating, as he had been continuously teaching those confused disciples recently, so he hadn’t left. Today, unexpectedly, Gu Mang came to find him.
Gu Mang frowned deeply, looking confused as he came before Lin Fei, "Master, I have a doubt."
"Speak," Lin Fei calmly replied.
Gu Mang thought for a moment and finally spoke, "Isn’t the technique master inscribed on the mountain wall missing something?"
Hearing this, Lin Fei smiled, "Have you completed cultivation?"
Gu Mang shook his head, "My talent, master should know, I can’t possibly complete cultivation in such a short time."
Lin Fei laughed, "You must have confidence in yourself, otherwise, how can you change the world if you don’t even believe in yourself? Only by believing in yourself can you become stronger, of course, this strength is not in power but in the mental state."
"Yes, disciple understands."
Lin Fei nodded, "What you said is indeed correct, I did not leave the entire technique, do you know why?"
"Why? Disciple does not know, please enlighten me, master," Gu Mang could not understand why Lin Fei left an incomplete technique for everyone to cultivate.
"You will understand this in the future, but I can tell you now."
"Please instruct me, master."
Lin Fei nodded, "In fact, this technique never had a final layer."
"What?!" Gu Mang was shocked, feeling that this was too incredible. How could this technique not have a final layer? Isn’t it impossible that Lin Fei created an incomplete technique?
However, Gu Mang felt that the master must have done it intentionally, otherwise how could it be imperfect!
Some people also noticed this point, so many think Lin Fei kept the last part privately, believing the last part is the most powerful.
No one knows who spread this news, but Lin Fei didn’t care and let others speculate.
After all, the cultivation technique Lin Fei created is definitely not easy to cultivate. Even the first layer might stop many people, let alone there are nine layers in total!
"What’s wrong, Gu Mang, do you not believe your master?" Lin Fei smiled at Gu Mang.
Gu Mang frowned deeply, "I believe, but why would master create an imperfect technique?" Gu Mang expressed great confusion.
Lin Fei smiled, "It’s quite simple, actually it’s a thought I have. The final move of the technique is already in my mind, but I haven’t continued to explore it, do you know why?"
Gu Mang shook his head, he didn’t understand.
"The path of cultivation is endless, and the future of the Lower Realm cannot be limited by a single technique of mine, so I only gave an incomplete technique. Moreover, this technique mainly lays the foundation. As long as the cultivation is successful, it’s considered a stable foundation, and the path ahead depends on him, including you, Gu Mang, you have your own development direction."
Hearing Lin Fei’s explanation, Gu Mang immediately respected his master even more, not realizing that his master had such a perspective, and he was unaware. His master’s foresight was far beyond what he could compare with, so Gu Mang admired Lin Fei even more.
"Gu Mang, go cultivate well, you have reached my expectations, remember the three-year agreement, right?" Lin Fei asked.
"Master, I remember, I won’t forget."
"About how much time is left?"
Gu Mang thought for a moment, replied, "Three months."
"Hmm, put in great effort in these three months. I won’t leave during this time, and after seeing your efforts, I will leave here. Moreover, if you truly cultivate this technique, combine it with the two main techniques I’ve taught you, understood? This way, your skills will progress faster," Lin Fei instructed.
"Yes!" Gu Mang replied, then left the place.
Lin Fei was quite satisfied with Gu Mang, unsure of what realm Gu Mang will reach in the future, but Lin Fei knew Gu Mang would surely not disappoint him because he had seen Gu Mang’s determination.
During the three months, the words Lin Fei spoke continued to be anticipated by many in the Beidou Sect, eagerly awaiting the competition between the Sect Leader’s disciple and Lin Fei’s useless disciple.
Although Gu Mang had primordial energy within him, he was still considered insufficient in everyone’s eyes, as his performance was lackluster, and he didn’t exude any aura, leading people to still not have high hopes for Gu Mang.
However, the three months soon passed, and it was already bustling with excitement.
Previously, people in the Ancient Martial World had already known that today was a particularly special day. They didn’t expect that within the Beidou Sect, there was such an agreement, saying Lin Fei’s disciple was going to compete with Leng Daoqiu’s disciple?
People who enjoyed excitement gathered at the Beidou Sect to see firsthand, as Lin Fei’s reputation was unparalleled in the Lower Realm.
But Leng Daoqiu’s reputation was also well-founded; within a year, he brought a technique that changed the entire Ancient Martial World, everyone’s power had significantly improved, and the martial arts were publicly available, not something an ordinary person could compile.
Speaking of the martial arts from both, Lin Fei was speechless. Back then, Lin Fei and Leng Daoqiu thought it was simple, just compiling their findings together into something more powerful. However, Leng Daoqiu and Lin Fei each had different styles, so how could there be any fusion!
So the two techniques became independent entities, and the martial arts developed from the techniques formed two independent systems. In the end, both techniques had their strengths and weaknesses, but the martial arts competition showed that Lin Fei’s were superior.
The martial arts that Lin Fei compiled were exceptionally formidable, utterly overwhelming for ordinary individuals to bear. Some wished Lin Fei’s martial arts could be combined with Leng Daoqiu’s technique.
