’No,’ Qin Feng thought. ’After taking my Sea God’s Fury, Qian Kai will be laid up for at least six months. Besides, I took his Forbidden-Breaking Pearl, so he has no way to steal any more Spirit dicine.’
’Could there be a second Spirit dicine Thief?’ Qin Feng found the idea incredible.
’When did a colossal institution like the All Stars Academy beco so overrun with thieves?’
On Qin Feng’s shoulder, Eighth Master had also received the news. His eyes darted about shiftily as he muttered to himself, ’Strange, I didn’t make a move last night.’
’Could it be that besides and that gray-robed fellow, there’s a third person stealing Spirit dicine?’
Eighth Master’s eyes darted about as he instinctively sensed that sothing was amiss.
Sure enough, Eighth Master’s intuition was confird not long after.
The successive thefts of Spirit dicine finally provoked the fury of this colossal institution.
That afternoon, while cultivating on Heavenly Red Peak, Qin Feng felt a terrifying, world-shaking aura suddenly descend upon the mountain.
As the aura descended, all the birds and beasts on Heavenly Red Peak, regardless of their strength, imdiately dropped to the ground, too terrified to move.
A Martial Arts Giant had arrived!
Qin Feng leaped to his feet in alarm.
The aura lingered for a long ti, only vanishing abruptly two hours later.
By then, everyone from the birds and beasts on the mountain to Qin Feng himself was drenched in sweat.
The sensation was terrifying, as if Divine Mountain and Great Peaks were pressing down on his head!
The entire territory of the All Stars Academy had been frozen solid by this aura.
Half a day later, news arrived from off the mountain: there was a lead on the Spirit dicine thieves.
Luan Xiaochuan ca rushing up from the foot of the mountain, his face flushed with excitent.
"Cave Master, a Great Power just used a Supre Divine Abilities to investigate the matter! It’s been figured out. They say there are three thieves this ti!"
"Three Spirit dicine Thieves?" Qin Feng’s expression shifted slightly. This was completely unexpected.
Qin Feng was mostly astonished. ’Qian Kai succeeded repeatedly by relying on ti incense and the Forbidden-Breaking Pearl. What kind of skills do the other two have? How can they ignore the Prohibitions on every peak and cave, coming and going as they please?’
"GWAK GWAK! Just as I thought!" Eighth Master’s eyes whirled in their sockets.
Tilting his head to look at Luan Xiaochuan, Qin Feng asked, "Have they caught the three Spirit dicine thieves?"
Luan Xiaochuan shook his head. "Not yet. According to the people from the dicine King Hall, each of the three thieves has special skills, and they are all extrely cautious."
"The dicine King Hall is intensifying its investigation now. I’m sure there will be results soon!"
"Very good. You may go. Continue to monitor the dicine King Hall, and report back to imdiately if you hear anything."
"Yes, Lord Cave Master!" Luan Xiaochuan trotted back down the mountain.
By the shore of Celestial Pool Lake, Qin Feng didn’t pay the matter much mind. As long as these Spirit dicine thieves didn’t try to steal from him like Qian Kai had, he had no intention of getting involved.
Qin Feng focused all his attention on cultivating the Little Cloud Rain Technique.
After breaking through the 9th Layer of the Little Cloud Rain Technique, the difficulty of its cultivation rose to a new level.
According to his original estimates, even with the help of the Beiming Divine Water Sword, it would take him at least twenty days to master the 10th Layer.
But now, Qin Feng had found a shortcut.
He had discovered this shortcut by chance while dealing with Qian Kai.
Inside the Bishui Cave Mansion, Qin Feng reactivated the Sixth-level Xuan Yuan Two-phase Spirit Refining Array, once again conjuring a world that was an ocean.
Drawing power from the array, Qin Feng circulated the Little Cloud Rain Technique. He blasted out a Cloud Rain Seal, manipulating the illusory ocean and transforming its waters into rain.
BOOM!
Standing atop the ocean, treading the waves, Qin Feng was like a tyrant in command of the ancient seas, stirring winds and summoning rain with a flip of his hand.
RUMBLE!
Seated cross-legged upon the ocean, he felt the thrum of the water beneath him, the surge of distant tides, and the hazy mist of the clouds and rain overhead.
Wisps of the ocean’s essence flooded his mind, supplented by the comprehension of Water Elent Mystical aning he’d gained in his previous life.
Qin Feng discovered that cultivating the Little Cloud Rain Technique here was three to four tis faster than doing so outside.
This Xuan Yuan Two-phase Spirit Refining Array was a natural paradise for practicing Water Attribute Cultivation thods.
Of course, the most crucial component was the pool of Spiritual Spring serving as the Array Hub.
Using the array to simulate the ocean provided an incredible advantage for his comprehension of the Ocean Mystical aning.
’It’s all thanks to that fellow Qian Kai,’ Qin Feng thought. ’If it weren’t for him, I might never have discovered this hidden benefit of the Xuan Yuan Two-phase Spirit Refining Array!’ With that, he fully imrsed himself in his cultivation.
...
In Qin Feng’s mind, the complete Ocean Mystical aning was composed of various branches: the Cloud Rain Mystical aning, Drizzle Mystical aning, Torrential Rain Mystical aning, Tide Mystical aning, Vortex Mystical aning, Northern Nether Mystical aning, Gentle Water Mystical aning, and others.
To fully comprehend the Ocean Mystical aning, one had to master at least three of its main branches.
Qin Feng selected three for himself: the Cloud Rain Mystical aning, the Tide Mystical aning, and the Northern Nether Mystical aning.
His progress in the Cloud Rain Mystical aning was the fastest. If it were divided into ten layers, he had already comprehended it to the Seventh Layer.
As for the Tide Mystical aning, also known as Tide Sword Intent, it was his primary focus, yet he estimated he had only comprehended it to the Fifth Layer.
The Northern Nether Mystical aning, however, remained uncharted territory.
If he could one day cultivate all three Mystical anings to Great Perfection and fuse them into the complete Ocean Mystical aning, that would be the day he broke through to the Condensing Vein Realm.
Furthermore, the Seed of Heaven and Earth he would form could beco an Ocean Seed.
If he were to beco a Demon God, he could even be called a Sea Emperor or a Sea God.
...
Imrsed in the ocean ford by the array, Qin Feng contemplated the rhythm of its waves, perceiving the fleeting wisps of Profound Mysteries within.
What is the Dao of Cloud and Rain?
What is the Cloud Rain Mystical aning? Within the ocean’s fluctuations, the answer seed to manifest directly in Qin Feng’s mind as it rose and fell in ti with the waves.
「Three days later.」 Qin Feng’s Little Cloud Rain Technique broke through to the 10th Layer, and he condensed his tenth Cloud Rain Seal.
Six days later, he reached the 11th Layer of the Little Cloud Rain Technique and condensed his eleventh Cloud Rain Seal.
Ten days later, with unstoppable montum, he mastered the 12th Layer of the Little Cloud Rain Technique and condensed his twelfth Cloud Rain Seal.
With this, the first Mystical aning he had focused on, the Cloud Rain Mystical aning, had reached Great Perfection.
After he fused the twelve Cloud Rain Seals, a single, jet-black Cloud Rain Seal appeared in his palm.
As the 12th Layer of the Little Cloud Rain Technique reached Great Success Perfection, the seal, under Qin Feng’s curious gaze, transford into a single black droplet of water and rged directly into the Innate Rune of his Innate Divine Power of Ocean Control.
At the sa ti, Qin Feng discovered that his Innate Divine Power of Ocean Control had silently advanced, becoming a Third-rank Divine Power.
His Innate Divine Power now possessed a new ability: summoning clouds and creating rain.
Within the Sixth-level Xuan Yuan Two-phase Spirit Refining Array, high above the illusory sea, Qin Feng’s great sleeves fluttered as he pointed a finger at the sky. Instantly, endless water vapor coalesced into roiling dark clouds.
A torrential downpour then began within a twelve-zhang radius.
The raindrops fell in lines, like beads on a string.
With a casual clench of his fist, Qin Feng condensed a single drop of water in his palm.
It was a drop of black rain!
This was no ordinary rain.
Tinged with wisps of Spiritual Qi, it was Spiritual Dew.
The next mont, with a single thought, Qin Feng dispersed the dark clouds, and the sky cleared as the rain ceased.
At the sa ti, Qin Feng’s gaze fell to his palm, where a black, bowl-sized sphere of water was now spinning.
With another thought, the sphere instantly split into thirty-six droplets that spun and danced in his palm.
"Celestial One True Water!" A smile touched Qin Feng’s lips.
Celestial One True Water wasn’t just useful as a Creation Spiritual Object; it was also a Water Treasure with imnse destructive power.
Legend said that One Elent True Water was one of the Nine Great Innate True Waters, and a single drop possessed the weight of an entire ocean.
Although the weight of Celestial One True Water wasn’t as terrifying as One Elent Heavy Water, it was still nothing to be trifled with.
And Qin Feng could condense thirty-six such droplets of Celestial One True Water at once!
...
While Qin Feng was in seclusion cultivating the Little Cloud Rain Technique, he was unaware that, one night, a beautiful, almost dreamlike creature had appeared in his Spirit Garden. The creature fixed its gaze on a particular stalk of Spirit dicine.
The next day, Luan Xiaochuan frantically pounded on the gates of Bishui Cave.
Facing Luan Xiaochuan, who was bowing so low his head nearly touched his own feet, Qin Feng roared, "What? You’re saying a stalk of Spirit dicine was stolen from the Spirit Garden?"
