Chapter 650: Chapter 89: Sister Pretends to Be Brother Chapter 650: Chapter 89: Sister Pretends to Be Brother Yan Yu, of course, had no mind to understand why Lin Ning had changed into a new skin… He was at that mont discussing team matters with Chen Lingyun.
The Zhenghai team consisted of six mbers, four at the Hua Mansion Stage and two at the Marrow Cleansing Stage. Lin Ning indicated that she faintly felt the threshold of Perfect Marrow Cleansing (aning it could still take a week to half a month), while Chen Lingyun claid she estimated she could advance to the Hua Mansion Stage within three weeks (Yan Yu was highly skeptical of this).
Thus, Lin Ning and Chen Lingyun’s current goal was to catch up with the main force and enter the Hua Mansion as quickly as possible. All other training activities could be suspended for assessnt to avoid generating pressure that might affect their ntal state.
Xie Ruoxi was the first one to enter the Hua Mansion Stage, and when it ca to cultivation, she led the entire team. However, her significantly lacking skills and indecisive will squandered this advantage. Since she never managed to improve her accuracy with the Thunder thod, Yan Yu decided to have her pause technical training and instead focus on the only magic treasure she had at hand.
The Thunder Cone.
During the battle in Belia, Yan Yu and the others defeated the Onmyoji team in the Mysterious Realm and obtained the Thunder Cone magic treasure from the guardian Six-Ard Demon God. Considering the relevance to the Thunder thod, the team assigned it to Xie Ruoxi.
However, this treasure was particularly draining on True Yuan and even more difficult to handle than the Thunder thod. Since Xie Ruoxi was already struggling with the Thunder thod, she naturally relegated the Thunder Cone Magic Artifact to the top shelf, locked away in a small cabinet in her study.
Chen Lingyun pointed out that, now that Ruoxi had entered the Hua Mansion, her abundance of True Yuan was incomparable to before, and perhaps it was ti to try the Thunder Cone magic treasure again.
Yan Yu approved.
The second person to advance was Su Yunjin. In an effort to make a breakthrough as quickly as possible, she had paused the collection work of the Acquired Water Elent Elite. Now, she still had yet to completely gather the Gentle Drizzles.
Once complete, she could refine it into “Rootless Water” “Gui Water Essence” inside her body, which would greatly enhance her ability in Water Dao, particularly in decreasing the consumption of various skills, thereby significantly boosting Yun Jin’s endurance.
But since Yan Yu had brought back the River Origin Purifying Bottle from the Mysterious Realm of Xiankong Island, Yun Jin now faced the sa dilemma once confronted by Ningning:
Continue gathering Acquired Water Elent Elite? Or prioritize refining the River Origin Purifying Bottle?
Yan Yu made a crucial directive: carry out both simultaneously, neither side should fall behind. Split the 24 hours into 48 to make use of them!
Chen Lingyun raised an opposing view: because the collection of the Acquired Five Elents Elite was too slow due to purity concerns, one might stay in the rain for half a day and only gather a re drop or so. However, if focused on refining the River Origin Purifying Bottle, the task could likely be completed in a few days. Of course, the ancient Han water source inside wasn’t much, about three drops left, and dropping it on soone’s head in battle wouldn’t likely kill them but would cripple them, amounting to three absolute powerful moves, which actually are a significant boost in combat power.
Yan Yu listened to Chen Lingyun’s suggestion and revised the directive plan: even reaching the designated location with pre-known weather, that rain wasn’t guaranteed to fall. He instructed Yun Jin to collect the Water Elent Elite with the River Origin Purifying Bottle while using the splintered ti before it rained to refine the magic treasure. This way, she could achieve both magic treasure cultivation and skill refinent simultaneously.
Chen Lingyun believed this plan indeed had feasibility. As for whether Yun Jin was happy about it… Since team mbers just needed to follow orders, but as a leader, one must consider much more, there wasn’t ti to fuss over these minor issues.
Apart from Yun Jin and Ruoxi, the next topic was Zhao Yuanzhen.
The Demonic Sect Enchantress was lethargic by nature, enjoying food, drink, and rrint. Even her practice wasn’t motivated by an intention to enhance her skills but rather driven by the thought “let’s finish quickly so I can go have fun,” so Yan Yu constantly had to supervise and push her to make any progress.
As for sword techniques, they’re hardly worth ntioning; she simply wasn’t cut out for them. Apart from the Puppet, Ami, she also had the White Bone Heart-Locking Hamr and the Red Lotus Bowl. She had mostly refined the latter, newly acquired magic treasure, claiming it was “as easy to operate as I wish” “dispatch and retract at will”, but Yan Yu knew this Enchantress was prone to making tall claims, likely only learning its usage; thus, he still needed to find ti to teach her how to use the magic treasures and adjust her tactics.
Finally, there was Yan Yu himself. The Liangyi Micro Dust Sword had a new feature added: the Flying Slash transmission function. This concept was utterly abstract—knowing that, Yan Yu, in his over many lifetis, had never contemplated the idea of Flying Swords involving instantaneous teleportation.
If one compared the enemy’s defense to ancient city defenses and his own sword techniques as besieging forces, then the strategies narrowed down to aggressive attack, encircling depletion, and surprise tactics, further evolving into a series of complex siege thods like “Cloud Ladder” “catapult” “door breaker” “secondary gate” “tunneling”… These were technical fields where Yan Yu had imrsed himself for many years.
Then he learned a new skill: I can instantly teleport the attacking force directly behind the city walls!
What use were cloud ladders or catapults when facing instant teleportation? It could only be said that warfare had evolved to a new stage; walls didn’t need consideration, the focus should now be on how to quickly maximize the effect of divine troops descending within the city…
Although Yan Yu was a veteran of nurous battles, faced with this completely new skill, he still needed ample ti to repeatedly guess, prove, and experint.
“Anyway, I won’t have ti to deal with you next,” he finally said to Chen Lingyun, “I still have to attend to the maintenance of the arena at the martial arts tournant!”
“How did you end up taking that task?” Chen Lingyun said in surprise, “I advise you to turn it down, it’s not an easy job.”
