Chapter 543 - 542: Black Tortoise True Spirit Acupoint

Chapter 543: Chapter 542: Black Tortoise True Spirit Acupoint

"Rumor has it that the Profound Turtle Race’s Qiankun Celestial Phenomenon Technique is a Divine Technique created by an ancient Profound Turtle ancestor who comprehended the Innate Trigrams of Xi Huang, one of the Three Ancient Emperors. On the Path of Yi Number Calculation, it is said to possess the power to uncover all of heaven’s secrets."

Although Qin Feng possessed the Black Tortoise Essence Blood, he had not received the inheritance of the Innate True Spirit Black Tortoise.

An inheritance is the most precious treasure of any clan or sect.

The Profound Turtle Race’s Qiankun Celestial Phenomenon Technique would play an irreplaceable role in helping him master Xuanwu’s Power.

Upon hearing this, Wu Shentong sent a telepathic message. "So, Brother Yu is interested in my clan’s Qiankun Celestial Phenomenon Technique. To be honest, if you’re willing to pay a certain price, I might not be opposed to offering you this Divine Technique."

Qin Feng was stunned. "What? Brother Wu, you’re willing to sell an inherited Secret Technique? Aren’t you afraid I’ll completely master this Divine Technique and uncover all the secrets of your Profound Turtle Race?"

From what Qin Feng knew, even a million years in the future, a Cultivation Technique was the very foundation of a sect or clan.

Selling a clan’s inherited Secret Technique was a treasonous thought. If the clan ever found out, they would hunt the perpetrator to the ends of the earth.

Wu Shentong calmly replied via telepathy, "What’s the big deal? Everything has a price. As long as the benefits are great enough, nothing is off the table. As for you deciphering it, that would actually be a good thing for us. One must break the old to build the new. Only through this can we truly grow stronger!"

"As for the clan, I couldn’t care less about those stubborn old geezers!"

Wu Shentong was indeed an Alien Species among the Profound Turtle Race.

From what Qin Feng understood, the Profound Turtle Race had always been known for being calm and stubborn.

This was completely contrary to Wu Shentong’s radical nature.

Qin Feng was beginning to understand why Wu Shentong, despite having the purest bloodline in the clan, was so disliked by the Profound Turtle Race.

After a moment of thought, Qin Feng sent a telepathic message. "What do you want in exchange? I happen to have a Cultivation Technique that you should be interested in."

"What Cultivation Technique?" Wu Shentong sounded rather uninterested. The only thing he cared about was the secret to the incredibly pure Black Tortoise Bloodline that Qin Feng possessed.

"A Black Tortoise True Acupoint Map, and a Secret Technique for cultivating the True Body of Xuanwu!"

"A Black Tortoise True Acupoint Map? How many acupoints? My Profound Turtle Race also has a map of the Black Tortoise’s True Acupoints. If it has fewer than four hundred, then don’t bother!"

Wu Shentong frowned.

"A full one thousand and eight! How about that?"

"What? One thousand and eight? How is that possible?" Wu Shentong’s expression changed.

It was common knowledge that cultivating a True Spirit Body was a grand path toward eternal life. Many of the Sea Race cultivated their physical bodies, attempting to revert to their ancestral forms and manifest a True Spirit Body.

However, Secret Techniques for cultivating a True Spirit Body varied in quality.

Generally speaking, the more True Spirit True Acupoints one obtained, the greater the chance of successfully cultivating a True Spirit Body.

The more True Spirit True Acupoints, the higher the grade of the Cultivation Technique.

The Profound Turtle Race also had several Cultivation Techniques for forging a True Spirit Body. The strongest was for the True Body of the Profound Turtle. The Profound Turtle was also one of the Ancient True Spirits; while not as powerful as their ancestor Xuanwu, it was still a hegemon of the waters.

Of course, as direct descendants of Xuanwu, the Profound Turtle Race had always preserved a partial Secret Technique for condensing the True Body of Xuanwu.

However, the Secret Technique of the Profound Turtle Race contained a Cultivation Technique for at most four hundred-some True Spirit True Acupoints, nowhere near a terrifying one thousand and eight.

Seeing Wu Shentong’s reaction, Qin Feng’s heart skipped a beat. He had clearly underestimated the value of this True Spirit True Acupoint map he had comprehended from the Xuanwu Yin Yang Dao.

It wasn’t really Qin Feng’s fault. In the later End of Dharma Era, this type of Cultivation Technique for forging a True Spirit Body had long since been obsolete.

Because Primordial Qi was scarce, cultivating a True Spirit Body was an exceptionally draining endeavor. Thus, in the End of Dharma Era, the focus was on the Transcendence of the mind and will.

Wu Shentong took a deep breath.

’One thousand and eight acupoints...’

’This is simply too shocking.’

’If he only had a five percent chance of forming the Xuanwu True Spirit with four hundred acupoints...’

’...then with the cultivation method for one thousand and eight True Acupoints, he would have at least a thirty percent chance of succeeding.’

A thirty percent chance. That was a terrifying probability.

He might even become the first member of the Profound Turtle Race to successfully form the Xuanwu True Spirit since Ancient Times.

To Wu Shentong, even a Legendary-grade Cultivation Technique couldn’t compare to this Black Tortoise True Spirit Acupoint map.

But when he saw the suspicious look on Yu Hua’s face, Wu Shentong’s heart leaped into his throat again.

’I’ve lost my composure!’

’Yu Hua probably didn’t know the value of this True Spirit Acupoint map before.’

His emotions were in turmoil, but Wu Shentong was no ordinary person. He quickly calmed himself.

"Young Master Yu, how do you propose we trade?"

’So that’s how it is!’ Realizing the value of the Black Tortoise True Spirit Acupoint map, Qin Feng decided to hold out for the best offer.

"Let’s make the trade after the Cyan Forest Banquet. This isn’t the right place for it. However, this Black Tortoise True Spirit Acupoint map is extraordinary. When the time comes, Brother Wu, please show your sincerity!"

As he spoke, the corner of Qin Feng’s mouth curled up, and he glanced at Wu Shentong, whose expression had hardened.

"Of course, if Brother Wu thinks he has the means to take it from me by force, feel free to try!" A confident smile appeared on Qin Feng’s face.

Don’t reveal your wealth. Of course, Qin Feng understood this principle.

"Fine. We will negotiate further after the Cyan Forest Banquet!"

Just then, a series of gasps came from the area around the Stone Lotus.

Qin Feng looked up. Nanming Ling of the Kun Fish Clan was now standing by the Stone Lotus, and rays of black light were blooming from it.

One after another, a total of fifty petals bloomed.

Wu Shentong chuckled. "The Kun Fish Clan’s North Nether Profound Water Scripture is truly extraordinary!"

"But Nanming Ling doesn’t seem happy at all!" From Qin Feng’s perspective, Nanming Ling was looking at the Thousand-leaf Water God Black Lotus not with excitement, but with pursed red lips and a dim look in her eyes.

"Of course she’s not happy. None of us who came here are. All our clans have ways to access the Sea Soul Realm, but there’s a limit to how many people from each clan can enter. People like us can’t get in, which is why we came to the Sea Demon Clan. If not for having no other choice and being unable to swallow our pride, who would willingly run all the way to Cloud Lake!"

Wu Shentong sneered.

"Why do you think not a single person from the Sea Realm Pride Ranking has shown up?"

Glancing at the many geniuses present, Wu Shentong said, "People like us, although we’re called geniuses, can only be considered second-tier talents who aren’t given much importance. The treatment that true, top-tier geniuses receive is beyond our imagination. Only second-echelon geniuses like us have to squeeze out every opportunity, fighting with our lives on the line for the slightest bit of Vitality!"

A trace of resentment flickered in Wu Shentong’s eyes.

Qin Feng nodded to himself. His own situation was much the same.

However, Qin Feng was quite curious about this Sea Soul Realm that Wu Shentong had mentioned.

Yu Hua’s memories contained little information about the Sea Soul Realm.

’Could this be the secret Xu Qiqi passed on to me?’ Qin Feng wondered.

Just then, Wu Shentong’s voice sounded in his ear. "Brother Yu, let’s go. Go give it a try!"

Lifting his head, Qin Feng glanced at Wu Shentong, who had regained his composure. He then turned his gaze to the Thousand-leaf Water God Black Lotus and decided to give it a try.

He also wanted to know if he could activate the Thousand-leaf Water God Black Lotus.
