Chapter 30: The Secret Technique of Spiritual Power
"A Two-Mark Sigil Master!" Lin Langtian finally came back to his senses, letting out a deep breath as he felt the two life sigils now present in his Niwan Palace.
Advancing to the level of Two-Mark Sigil Master was certainly a cause for celebration, but the process had been incredibly risky. He hadn't anticipated that Cao Kun would be so ruthless, sacrificing all his spiritual energy in a desperate attempt to take him down as well. Clearly, these battle-hardened survivors weren't easy opponents.
This experience served as a lesson. Despite having inherited much of his predecessor's battle knowledge, Lin Langtian still lacked actual combat experience and needed to work on honing it. People assumed Lin Dong's achievements came effortlessly, as if fate itself blessed him, but few realized the constant dangers and struggles he'd faced, battles that eventually earned him his title as Martial Ancestor.
Reflecting on his errors, Lin Langtian's attention shifted to the gold mirror within his dantian. Surprisingly, this mirror had activated at a critical moment, revealing its extraordinary power. Lin Langtian could sense Cao Kun's spiritual energy sealed within it, available for him to absorb whenever needed. And with the mirror's ability to control how much he could draw at once, he no longer needed to fear being overwhelmed by the excess spiritual power.
In other words, Lin Langtian now had a spiritual energy reserve at his disposal, a kind of personal "energy bank." Thanks to this, he could practice without the usual worry of running low on spiritual energy as he advanced toward becoming a true spirit sigil master. This realization brought him immense satisfaction.
The refining process for spiritual energy was much more complex and subtle than Yuan energy, and he had already fallen behind in his spiritual training. But with this stored power, he had a shortcut to catch up in no time. Lin Langtian glanced at the lifeless body of Cao Kun, who had tried to take him down in a final desperate act. Instead, Cao Kun's actions had handed him an unexpected advantage. Truly, as the saying goes: "Blessings lie in misfortune, and misfortune lurks in blessings."
Seeing Lin Langtian looking not only unharmed but revitalized, Cao Kun widened his eyes in shock. How could a mere One-Mark Sigil Master absorb all his spiritual energy unharmed? But he had no time to ponder this. With his energy drained, he collapsed lifelessly, his eyes still fixed on Lin Langtian with disbelief.
With the deaths of both the leader and deputy leader of the Black Tiger Gang, the conflict between the Lin family and the Black Tiger Gang came to an end. Spectators around the square looked at the young man in green robes, realizing that his name, Lin Langtian, would spread far and wide after this battle.
Unconcerned by the growing awe around him, Lin Langtian picked up the Qiankun pouches belonging to Huang Yin and Cao Kun, then gestured to the members of the Lin family who gazed at him with admiration, signaling that it was time to leave.
...
As expected, Lin Langtian's victory at the North District Plaza became one of the hottest topics in the capital, with word spreading not only through the Great Yan Province but across the entire Great Flame Dynasty. Many were shocked by the outcome, and his reputation continued to grow.
Some enthusiasts even began to label Lin Langtian as the "Top Genius of the Great Flame Dynasty." While this title invited some skepticism, his undeniable achievements spoke for themselves, leaving few grounds for criticism.
...
In the Lin family mansion, Lin Langtian retreated to focus on his training after wiping out the Black Tiger Gang and severing the influence of Huangpu Ying. Although the battle itself wasn't overly challenging, it had revealed several mistakes on his part.
Reviewing his mistakes afterward—like correcting errors on a test—was the best way to improve combat abilities rapidly. After some time, Lin Langtian opened his eyes, feeling his energy even more focused and refined. The battle had resolved some of the imbalances from his recent rapid power growth, increasing his strength slightly despite not breaking through to a new level.
Feeling satisfied, Lin Langtian reached into the Qiankun pouch, retrieving a jade piece. This was part of his spoils from Cao Kun. Huang Yin's Qiankun pouch also held some valuable items, including martial arts manuals and one hundred thousand Pure Yuan Pills, all of which Lin Langtian had gladly claimed. The jade piece, however, held something even more valuable—a spiritual technique of Cao Kun's.
Spiritual techniques could be thought of as a type of "martial art" specifically for spiritual power, and they also had levels like martial arts. These levels, ranked from lowest to highest, were named after three vital aspects of the human self: Essence, Qi, and Spirit.
As a low-level spirit sigil master, Cao Kun had clearly prioritized this jade piece, which meant it was likely of considerable value. Lin Langtian, now a Two-Mark Sigil Master, had yet to train in spiritual techniques, so this jade piece had come at the perfect time.
With that in mind, he eagerly examined the jade piece. Runes were inscribed on its surface, and he could tell there was a faint trace of spiritual energy inside. As a Two-Mark Sigil Master, his spiritual power was strong enough for him to send a thread of it into the jade piece.
As soon as he did, an influx of information flowed from the jade piece directly into his mind.
The Demon God's Hand... a Qi-level spiritual technique.
After absorbing the information, Lin Langtian's face lit up with surprise. Not only was this a Qi-level spiritual technique, but it was also on the stronger side of the scale.
Lin Langtian had seen Cao Kun use this Demon God's Hand technique during their battle. While he'd broken it easily due to his strength advantage, he knew the technique was still quite powerful. Cao Kun's reputation and rank as deputy leader of the Black Tiger Gang weren't without reason.
With renewed focus, Lin Langtian closed his eyes, beginning to practice the newly acquired Qi-level spiritual technique.
