บท 127: The Wings of Kun Peng
With the last of the five who attacked him dead, Jian Shen turned and looked towards the two women who were looking at him with reverence in their eyes.
"You two again."
Sighing and shaking his head at the same time, Jian Shen turned around and left.
Seeing this, the women showed a relieved look and immediately began making their way back to the base.
Due to the fact that Jian Shen had spared them yesterday, and didn't follow them, when Jian Shen once again spared them, they really didn't think that he hadn't left and was hiding close by.
Waiting a few seconds until the footsteps were almost out of the range of his hearing, Jian Shen began following them without letting then sense his presence.
'I want a movement technique.'
After having witnessed the skinny man who despite being so weak, managed to almost threaten his life. Jian Shen realized that his current speed was fast, but not fast enough to rival those who used movement techniques.
Therefore, he decided to learn one himself.
As for asking the Juewang and Qingyu for a movement technique, if it was in the past Jian Shen might have hesitated, or feel embarrassed to do so.
But after everything that happened, Jian Shen treated them as his own women, and what was there to feel embarrassed about asking his own women for a movement technique?
"A movement technique? Hmmm... I have quite a few, Jian Shen. But given your current cultivation, it is impossible to try and use any of them."
'That's too bad. What about you little wifey?'
"Fufufufu, unlike that broken sword, I've been making preparations to meet you and travel alongside you for many years, husband. Due to that, I've collected all sorts of combat-related techniques which can be used at your strength as well."
'Really? That's great!'
Smiling happily, Juewang began looking through all the techniques she had memorized to pick the best one for Jian Shen.
"Given your current strength, I have a total of 13 movement techniques, husband."
"Our of them, 5 techniques can be used even after your cultivation enters the Divine Stage."
"And, 2 of them can be used even when you become a Dao Cultivator."
'What are those two techniques?'
"The Seven Steps to Destiny, and the Wings of Kun Peng."
"Where did you find the Seven Steps to Destiny?"
Completely ignoring the shocked Qingyu, Juewang began explaining about both the techniques to Jian Shen.
"The Seven Steps to Destiny is a special kind of movement technique which doesn't increase your speed, but, through a series of particular movements it brings you closer to your target."
"Also, once you manage to completely comprehend the technique, and use it, it is said that you can use the technique to directly reach your destiny."
"Though no one really knows what this destiny you'll reach is, because no one has been able to comprehend the technique completely. Everyone wants to try and become the first one who'd able to do so."
"As for the Wings of Kun Peng, I don't have many details about it."
"I found it inscribed on a tablet inside the cave where I found the Scarlet Nine-Tailed Fox Sword at."
"I haven't learnt either of them, but from just a single glance I can tell that the Wings of Kun Peng doesn't lose out to the Seven Steps to Destiny in the slightest."
"And, since it is a pure movement-based technique which seems to replicate the wings of a real Kun Peng, and let you use them, the Wings of Kun Peng is obviously faster than the Seven Steps to Destiny."
Nodding his head while still following the two women, Jian Shen didn't need to think for long before he made a decision.
'I'll take the Wings of Kun Peng.'
"Oh? Why? The Seven Steps to Destiny is a technique which almost everyone tries to learn. So why choose the Wings of Kun Peng, Jian Shen?"
'The Seven Steps to Destiny sounds like a very great technique, but if I directly reach my destiny, wouldn't I miss the journey which should've led me to it?'
'If I truly cared more about the ending, could I possibly have met either of you?'
Chuckling without letting his voice come out, Jian Shen continued to silently follow the two women who were starting to show signs of slowing down.
"Husband! If you keep saying lines like that, you'll make me cry!"
"Also, I'd suggest you slow down, and if possible stop so that no accidents happen, husband."
Frowning from the possibility of losing the two women, Jian Shen decided to maintain a slow speed, and not stop.
"Okay, I'm going to start husband."
Along with those words, Jian Shen started to feel unknown information enter his head. It was the same way how Qingyu had taught him the Myriad Sword God Cultivation Technique.
At first, Jian Shen didn't feel anything special and only saw various images and text flash in front of his eyes. But soon, the amount of information entering Jian Shen's head reached a very fast speed which caused his head to start hurting.
Bearing with the pain, Jian Shen made sure to not lose track of the women he was following, while not making any sound as well.
Unfortunately, as time went by, Jian Shen's head hurt even more, and made him feel dizzy as well.
Due to this, he had no choice but to stop and wait for the symptoms of having such a complicated technique transferred into his head, died down.
Finally, it took around 40 seconds for the pain and dizziness to leave, after which Jian Shen didn't even check the technique and rushed in the direction he had last heard the women running in.
Managing to catch up without the slightest trouble, Jian Shen sighed a little and started to read through the technique in his head.
