Chapter 81: Ascension Steps
Chapter 81: Ascension Steps
"Vermilion Bird Seal!"
Gu He looked at this elegant illusion with some shock.
On this illusion, he felt a kind of fierceness that could incinerate the sky.
Only after this scene disappeared from his mind did Gu He slowly open his eyes.
A feeling of enlightenment poured into Gu He's heart, followed by wild joy.
At this moment, Gu He felt that he had completely mastered the Earth Rank Advanced Dou Technique, Ascension Steps.
Moreover, it was a profound understanding, soaked in experience.
The ten-thousand-fold return not only referred to the level of the technique but also included the insights Gu He passed to Liu Ling during the training. This allowed him to perfect his mastery of this technique while passing on the Ascension Steps heritage.
This excited Gu He.
Advanced Earth Rank techniques are extremely difficult to cultivate, requiring a considerable amount of energy and time.
Yet now, Gu He had only spent a moment, and he had already mastered this Earth Rank Advanced Dou Technique.
This undoubtedly saved him a considerable amount of time and effort.
Thinking of the terrifying power exhibited by Ascension Steps in the scene just now, Gu He not only felt excited but also eager to try it himself.
With this Earth Rank Advanced Dou Technique, Gu He was confident in facing Dou Ancestor-level experts head-on.
Moreover, his innate Essence Fire was condensed from an extraordinary flame.
This gave Ascension Steps, a fire attribute technique, a significant boost in power.
If Gu He's innate Essence Fire could be further enhanced, the Ascension Steps he displayed in the future might even rival some low-level Heaven Rank techniques.
Then, Gu He turned his gaze to Liu Ling, who had not yet awakened, and quietly waited by his side.
After a moment, Liu Ling's eyelids moved, and he slowly opened his eyes.
Thinking of the information he had just received in his mind, a joyous expression appeared on Liu Ling's face.
Profound Rank Advanced Technique, Flame Palm!
The teacher actually gave him a Profound Rank Advanced Dou Technique!
And the information Gu He gave him not only included the cultivation method of Flame Palm but also contained insights into cultivating Flame Palm.
With these insights, he believed he could quickly master this technique.
Thinking of this, he looked at his teacher with infinite gratitude.
Teacher, you're really too kind, and your consideration is impeccable.
He even passed on the insights into cultivation.
"Have you learned it?" Feeling Liu Ling's gaze, Gu He said slowly.
Liu Ling nodded quickly, "Teacher, disciple has learned it."
"Then continue to sit down; I'll grant you the final reward." Gu He stood up and said lightly.
Upon hearing this, Liu Ling was slightly stunned, then quickly came to Gu He and knelt down, eagerly saying, "Teacher, disciple is ready."
Gu He approached Liu Ling, stretched out his hand, and placed his palm on Liu Ling's Tianling acupoint.
With a thought, he directly transmitted the recently learned Profound Rank Advanced Body Movement Technique, Wind Treading, and the insights he gained from practicing it to Liu Ling.
After a moment, Gu He passed on the body movement technique to Liu Ling and then withdrew his palm.
At the same time, a system prompt sounded in Gu He's mind.
"Ding, the host has granted the disciple Liu Ling the Profound Rank Advanced Body Movement Technique, Wind Treading. Congratulations to the host for triggering a ten-thousand-fold return, obtaining the Earth Rank Advanced Dou Technique, Ascension Steps!"
"The Earth Rank Advanced Dou Technique, Ascension Steps, has been sent to the system space. Please check it, host!" {TL/N: In the translation it is “So close yet so far”. But it didn't sit well with me so it is changed to “Ascension Steps”}
"The Earth Rank Advanced Dou Technique, Ascension Steps, has been sent to the system space. Host, please pay attention to check."
Another Earth Rank Advanced Dou Technique!
And it's a body movement technique!
Hearing the system's prompt, Gu He felt delighted.
An Earth Rank Advanced Body Movement Technique's value is almost comparable to a low-level Celestial Rank technique.
Advanced body movement techniques are undoubtedly rarer than low-level ones.
Throughout the entire Dou Qi continent, there are probably not many high-level body movement techniques of this caliber.
Next, as Gu He saw that Liu Ling did not show signs of waking up in a short time, he moved his mind and directly sank into the system space.
Upon entering the system space, Gu He saw a transparent sphere radiating silver light suspended in the void.
"Is this Ascension Steps?" With an excited mood, Gu He had no hesitation and directly thought in his mind, "System, begin extracting Ascension Steps."
The moment Gu He's words fell, the silver transparent light sphere immediately shot out like a released arrow, directly penetrating into Gu He's body.
Boom!
At the moment when the silver light poured into Gu He's body, his body suddenly shook.
A vast and mighty burst of information exploded in his mind.
These pieces of information turned into a light shadow, flashing through his mind.
The next moment, in Gu He's consciousness, an ancient palace appeared.
In the ancient palace, there were densely packed stone platforms.
At this moment, a human-shaped light shadow appeared in the palace.
Looking at this light shadow, Gu He's eyes revealed a hint of surprise.
He stared straight at the light shadow in his mind. At this moment, the originally quiet human-shaped light shadow suddenly flashed towards one of the stone platforms.
In the dim palace, silver lights flickered.
Swish!
The human-shaped light shadow suddenly turned into a ray of light, and in an instant, it appeared dozens of feet away.
This speed made Gu He a little unresponsive.
When he looked over, the human-shaped light shadow had already disappeared.
No, it was not disappearing but continuously flashing on the densely packed stone platforms, with the positions where the human-shaped light shadow appeared full of suspended lights.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
The sharp breaking sound echoed, and the entire area was filled with the residual images of the human-shaped light shadow, densely packed. Eventually, Gu He couldn't even see the movement of the human-shaped light shadow clearly.
The speed at which this human-shaped light shadow swept through was incredibly fast, so fast that Gu He couldn't react.
However, Gu He could see the trajectory of these light shadows, as if these human-shaped light shadows were deeply imprinted in his mind.
After a moment, Gu He slowly opened his eyes. Then, he rubbed his slightly swollen head and muttered to himself, "I didn't expect such a mysterious technique in this world."
"Constructing a point in the void with the power of the soul, then moving with
the soul..."
As Gu He uttered these words, his figure gradually became blurry.
The next moment, Gu He's figure directly appeared at the gate of another courtyard without any warning.
Then, Gu He's figure quickly dissipated and appeared in the pavilion, leaving only a fading shadow at the courtyard gate.
"Ascension Steps, the nearest reaches of the world, the farthest steps to infinity."
A hint of excitement appeared at the corner of Gu He's mouth.
