Chapter 100: Zhu Family Secret Techniques

Zhu Zhaohong and Xie Rongfu were together, battling against an extraordinary high monster and numerous subordinate creatures.

As soon as Yun Ye arrived, they noticed him; in this area, they had set up formations for protection.

This wasn’t to guard against others but mainly due to the worry of a monster ambush.

“Yang Shi? You shouldn’t be here,” Zhu Zhaohong exclaimed, her expression immediately turning cold upon seeing Yun Ye.

The Black Armored Army had not clashed because Yun Ye completely avoided the noble families, rarely communicating or cooperating with their members.

With no points of contact, there were naturally no conflicts, and Zhu Zhaohong couldn’t care less about a commoner.

But now that Yun Ye had actively appeared before her, the significance was obviously different. Even if Yun Ye had never collected Spiritual Herbs, Zhu Zhaohong wouldn’t believe it.

Yun Ye said nothing more.

Xiang Liangren’s strength was uncertain, and Yun Ye still needed to ambush him; however, Zhu Zhaohong had fought with other children of noble families many times, and he had already grasped most of her abilities. Even if she were ten times stronger, she would be suppressed.

“Heavenly Fire!”

Yun Ye punched through the formation and stepped inside.

Xie Rongfu’s face turned pale as he shouted, “Not good, Miss! The creature coming is a monster; the formation can’t hold it back!”

“Stop him! I’ll deal with the other monsters,” Zhu Zhaohong glanced at Yun Ye and frowned.

With her Spirit Sense, she sensed that the flames the newcomer used were indeed Azure Flames. Was this young man really a monster?

Regardless, the opponent’s purpose was quite clear: to kill her. There was no need to think too much; she simply had to suppress him.

“Ten Thousand Vines Spiritual Law!”

A multitude of vines came crashing down toward Yun Ye, resembling giant pythons, adorned with blooming spiritual flowers that contained deadly poison.

Xie Rongfu struck first, launching an attack; this was a Spiritual Law executed in collaboration with the formation, allowing him to manipulate a large amount of spirit energy to amplify his strength without consuming vitality.

“Heart Fire!”

Yun Ye did not intend to waste time, entering a thousandfold acceleration. All the vines froze, and Yun Ye effortlessly moved closer at a speed undetectable by Xie Rongfu.

Then, a black hole opened, and Yun Ye withdrew the celestial phenomenon, smashing it onto Xie Rongfu.

At a thousandfold acceleration, how terrifying was Yun Ye’s strength?

With just one blow, Xie Rongfu’s body was twisted into mush, and chunks of flesh exploded into countless fragments, like sniper bullets, shattering the cave into pieces.

High-level monsters were massively demolished, directly helping Zhu Zhaohong eliminate her opponents.

In the end, only the extraordinary high monster, Zhu Zhaohong, and Yun Ye remained alive.

Seeing this scene, Zhu Zhaohong turned and fled, her body emitting a blue spirit light, her speed increasing rapidly.

This was the Talismans!

But it was clearly not enough. Zhu Zhaohong’s Black Armor activated, extending a pair of spirit wings, and her speed surged once more as she dashed toward the entrance.

Given the terrifying destruction caused by the previous strike, it was clear that Yun Ye was not an opponent she could face.

She had to escape!

But in an instant, the world turned upside down. Amidst a booming sound, Zhu Zhaohong felt intense pain throughout her body, nearly suffocating…

When she caught her breath, she realized she had been pushed into the ground. She struggled to raise herself up but soon collapsed again, coughing up blood.

She saw the extraordinary high monster covered in scales charging at her, and she couldn’t help but struggle to fight back.

“Boom!”

Yun Ye swung the celestial phenomenon, smashing the attacking extraordinary high monster, then lifted the celestial phenomenon up.

Zhu Zhaohong found herself inexplicably flying up and shamefully hanging against the wall.

“Yang Shi!”

Zhu Zhaohong desperately tried to activate the secret technique to amplify her combat power, engaging in a final struggle.

But Nether Fire burned, her Spirit Sense invaded, and the interrogation began.

It was smooth, impressive even.

In the end, Zhu Zhaohong had no means to defy fate and was captured by Yun Ye for a brief interrogation.

It was termed brief mainly because, as a Spiritual Law master, her neural responses were incredibly fast, and she could speak rapidly as well.

As long as she didn’t exceed the speed of sound, there were no barriers to her words.

Thanks to this, in just a short time, various secret techniques and knowledge of Spiritual Laws were extracted by Yun Ye.

“So, this is how the Zhu family’s secret Qi Cultivation Technique feels? It’s indeed exquisite, even better than my Imagining Method. There are many details I hadn’t considered…”

“Interesting! If I combine it with the Xiang family’s secret knowledge, the Imagining Method can be further improved.”

Yun Ye nodded repeatedly.

His gains were enormous—the truth was, serving the noble families and the authorities in Baishi Town was nonsense.

The correct approach was to directly seize the knowledge of these core members of noble families. In just a short time, the knowledge he possessed underwent a leap in quality!

If he served the noble families, he wouldn’t earn this even in ten lifetimes!

“The climax is here: the secret techniques and cultivation methods regarding Fire Spiritual Roots. Come on, speak up—I can help you find relief sooner!”

“…”

Yun Ye’s words were too mocking. Even in a controlled state, Zhu Zhaohong’s anger nearly made her break free.

However, going berserk was impossible; in the end, Zhu Zhaohong revealed everything.

“There are three attributes of a single Spiritual Root: Spiritual Roots completeness, spirit energy absorption speed, and element strength.”

“Spiritual Roots completeness determines the quality of spirit energy. The higher the completeness, the greater the strength of the same amount of spirit energy.”

“Spirit energy absorption speed determines the quantity of spirit energy. The stronger the revival of Spiritual Roots, the faster spirit energy is absorbed and converted.”

“Element strength determines the strength of innate abilities. The five elements are the weakest, while Wind Element and Thunder Element are ten times stronger.”

“The secret technique of Fire Spiritual Roots is precisely a method to change element strength, allowing one to integrate with flames after birth, altering one’s innate element. I integrated with the flames of the True Fire Sparrow, gaining flames three times stronger than the five elements. They’re only slightly weaker than innate spirit fire, and if I dared to fuse with even more powerful flames, I might surpass innate spirit fire.”

Zhu Zhaohong fully explained the principles of the secret technique.

Yun Ye was somewhat surprised.

He had known for a long time that to transform the five elements spirit fire to acquired spirit fire, one must consume the corresponding Rare Treasures, but such Rare Treasures were incredibly rare—there were none in Baishi Town, and even in the Crescent Moon Secret Realm, Yun Ye hadn’t encountered any.

Clearly, the Fire Spiritual Roots secret technique had a lower threshold than consuming Rare Treasures; it could directly use the demon’s demon fire!

Even if it wasn’t as good as true innate spirit fire, it was still of great value!

This was an innate element; gaining a new element would also enhance the Spiritual Roots completeness and spirit energy absorption ability!

Why do the Wind Element and Thunder Element possess more than ten times the power of the five elements?

The reason is simple: because the five elements’ upper limit is 10, while the Wind Element and Thunder Element’s upper limit is 100.

Even if it has only 10% completeness, it equals the upper limit of the five elements.

This surprise was even comparable to the cultivation method she contributed!

“Three Mystical True Fire Method!”

Collecting three types of fire Spiritual Laws would converge to form the Three Mystical True Fire, building a method that would elevate the power of spirit energy to unimaginable levels.

Zhu Zhaohong had the method to cultivate this Three Mystical True Fire, but she never succeeded; otherwise, she would have achieved the Spirit Realm.

Like the five Captains, she would hold a very high status even in Baishi Town.

“The leap from the Mortal Realm to the Spirit Realm is astonishing.”

“This is what the Gate of Heaven of the Crescent Moon refers to…”

“The Heavenly Path, right?”
