"Old man Dugu.. eh, I mean Lord Guardian.. please wait for us!" Duan Li called out from afar.
The other party had told him to follow, yet what is this? How can he possibly follow properly when the latter was moving too fast? Even Daelius as his mount was struggling to catch up!
"Hmph! This is what you get for cheating. The real purpose of this place for limiting your stamina and making you unable to fly, is so that you could temper yourself to an even greater heights. Yet, you chose to ride your mount and lazily go around the places here!" Dugu Liubai stood far at the very front with a strict expression and his hands clasped behind his back.
Pant* Pant*
Daelius breath was becoming more haggard as they moved. Had it been by itself, it would normally took quite a while for it to become exhausted. But because Duan Li was riding on top of him, Daelius felt that it was quite tiring to move very fast with the extra weight.
After all, when all was said and done, in the end, Daelius was still considered as a baby. His fast growth was only attributed to the mutation of its body!
"What do you mean tempering the body? Like training our physical body? But I'm pretty sure my physical body is already at the pinnacle! What is there to temper.." Duan Li rebutted with a wronged expression.
Dugu Liubai shook his head. "I don't mean to train your physical body, but your spiritual Qi control!"
My spiritual Qi control?
Duan Li raised his brows as he thought of this.
Not only that, he cultivated all three of his dantians, even his Qi cycle efficiency allows him to practically have infinite amount of spiritual Qi inside him as long as the amount of output and usage was not too fast.
Therefore, if he were to compare spiritual Qi cycle around his body with the Lord Guardian, he was pretty sure that he would emerge as the winner.
Unfortunately however, after further explanations, what Dugu Liubai meant by control was specifically, controlling the output!
This had him thoroughly confused.
He could control the output of his spiritual Qi just fine. But if he were to reduce it, the power behind his skill arts would be reduced as well!
To make an analogy, this was similar to a flood gate system. The more you lower it, the less water would come out of it!
"You won't understand this just by thinking about it. Let me show you first, otherwise, despite your flamboyant performance ever since you entered this Second region, I fear that you would not be able to survive the maze trial as it is related to the control of your spiritual Qi!" Dugu Liubai said.
He then raised his right palm in front of him with the other tucked behind his back, and aimed it far in the distance towards a small rocky island by the sea.
"This is what normal cultivators usually do, outputting higher amounts of spiritual Qi for a formidable amount of force!"
Hengg!!
Thrusting that palm of his slightly forward, five mighty and gargantuan projection of blue palms spread out across the sky, locking towards that island from all direction, including from above!
Each of this blue palm was as big as an entire rock cliff that jutted high up into the sky, its sheer scale even caused Duan Li to shiver!
For a moment or so, this display of overwhelming might made him reminisced of the experience that he had once before in his memories, back to when he was also a true immortal!
"Palms of True Desolation!" Dugu Liubai muttered the name of his skill with an indifferent expression.
KABOOMMMMMM!!
An entire space compressed, ruptured and then collapsed, creating an explosion with its mushroom extending far above the atmosphere!
In addition to this mind-boggling visuals, the shockwaves from the explosion had sent tsunami that cloaked the entire sky, heights reaching hundreds of meters tall! If these tsunami were to hit land, everything would cease to exist!
Gulp!
Duan Li subconsciously swallowed his saliva as he watched this, and so does Di Rou that had emerged from his shadow to see what level of power this Lord Guardian has.
But when she witnessed this, she was shocked down to her core!
What level of godly power is this?!
"This.. this isn't something that can be defended at all.. even if all the Nascent Soul realm experts in the Jiu Empire were to band together, against such an attack.. the entire capital would be eradicated in an instant!" she said with horror apparent in her voice.
Dugu Liubai happened to hear this, and his heart couldn't help but to welled up in pride. Thus, with a casual look on his face, he replied cooly, "That is only natural, after all, there was a saying that, those under the realm of immortals were nothing but ants! Hmph!"
Duan Li nodded as he agreed to this. He too knew the might of an immortal because he used to be one in that alternate future timeline.
Just him alone back then could already eradicate monsters at the Hermit King level, monsters that none should be able to survive against!
Dugu Liubai then pointed his index finger forward towards that raging colossal tsunami. His brows twitched a bit as he grunted;
"Ten Epic Spells: Save Reload!"
Whisshhh!
As if the world was suddenly covered by a myriad of color filters, the marching tsunami then suddenly stopped moving, before retracing back on its original path!
Wuishh! Wuishh!!
The tsunami continued to recede back further until eventually the destroyed island could be seen once more.
"T-This is.. time reversal?!" Di Rou gaped her mouth in shock once more.
The means of an immortal is truly heaven-defying!
"Now this time, I will control the amount of output. Observe the result!" Dugu Liubai said as he thrusted another palm attack of the same skill as before.
Huuu!!
"Hmm?" Duan Li noticed a peculiar flow in the Guardian's technique this time.
Specifically, the amount of force that was let out was insignificant compared to before, in fact, it was so inferior that people would not expect too much from it!
However..
BOOOMMMM!!
The previously rocky island that was restored through reversing time was once again blown into smithrens as the explosion sent out mushrooms of black clouds and giant waves of tsunamis.
"Incredible..!" exclaimed Duan Li.
While the might was obviously down by a few notches, what had Duan Li feeling extremely amazed was that the amount of spiritual Qi input was only one tenth of the original usage, yet outputting two thirds of its maximum prowess!
This was the utmost level of efficiency!
If he could master this 'control' technique, his skill arts would evolve to an even terrifying degree!
Just thinking about this had Duan Li clenched his fists in agitation.
"Do you understand yet?" Dugu Liubai threw Duan Li a side glance as he put both hands behind his back once more, appearing like a true expert.
Duan Li nodded, "Yes, this control technique seems to be quite a high level technique! However, although I understand the gist of it, I still could not comprehend its method!"
He then clasped his fists together and continued, "If it doesn't bother Lord Guardian too much, would you mind in imparting me this useful technique?"
Dugu Liubai was quite elated when the perpetrator whom had made him lose his mind so many times before was practically pleading to be taught a new technique!
Somehow, he felt a little bit better now, thus he agreed to it.
"Very well then!" he said before cupping his chin. "Do you know any technique that could analyse the spiritual Qi flow of other people?" he asked.
"En! I have mastered a skill art called Sonar Qi that could do that!" Duan Li replied with a positive nod.
"Oh? I Didn't expect you to be also well-versed in the field of medical.. but that should work." Dugu Liubai said.
He then allowed Duan Li to tap on his shoulder to perform Sonar Qi while he demonstrate the control technique later on.
"This is the most direct and efficient way of teaching you control technique. You might not be able to master it immediately, but given a few years, you should be able to do it. For now, I want you to remember the perfect control of spiritual Qi!"
Dugu Liubai then began to drive the spiritual Qi in his body.
Sonar Qi!
Wenggg!!
The moment Duan Li casted this skill on him, Dugu Liubai immediately felt alarmed!
"Eh? What kind of probing technique is this?!"
He felt that all of his secrets was being revealed entirely in this single instant, leaving no stones unturned!
He was too dazed by this fact that when he finally snapped out of it, Duan Li laughed out happily!
"Hahaha! So that's how it was! To think that it would be so simple! How could I never thought of this before?"
