Chapter 89: Practicing the Chaos Technique Might Cost Another Arm
For two consecutive days, Yi Chen stayed in his stone house, focusing on his training.
Based on his original extraordinary talent as a member of humanity, it would usually take about eighteen days for him to break through from Spirit Law Second Level to Spirit Law Third Level.
With the assistance of spirit stones, this time could be reduced to around nine days.
But on top of that, he also had the Strongest Talent System.
The larger the territory he controlled, the higher the additional talent bonus he received.
At present, his controlled territory had reached over one hundred fifty thousand square kilometers, which boosted his talent bonus to one and a half times on top of his existing talent.
This meant Yi Chen’s current talent reached 2.5 times that of the highest talent among humanity.
Naturally, his training speed increased drastically.
With the aid of spirit stones, it would only take three to four days to progress from Spirit Law Second Level to Spirit Law Third Level.
In the Spirit Law stage, he could still distinctly feel the rapid progress, making it hard for Yi Chen to stop.
Unfortunately, no matter how difficult it was to pause, he still had matters to address outside.
*Knock, knock!*
Little Gold Ball immediately rushed to open the door.
The high priest stood outside with a smiling face.
Yi Chen arrived at the door, grabbed the high priest’s arm, and flew directly toward the center of the valley.
Having not been outside for two days, the valley presented a new scene.
The number of wooden houses and courtyards had more than doubled, surpassing Yi Chen’s expectations for efficiency.
From the air, he could see the neat and orderly courtyards, which were a pleasing sight.
Around the settlement, tribe members could be seen practicing swordsmanship, and children were happily chasing each other.
“Chief!”
Upon arriving at the valley’s center, the Spirit Law Tribe members waiting there gazed at Yi Chen with excitement and urgency as he descended from the sky.
A quick glance revealed at least forty people.
Considering the need to arrange for Spirit Law Tribe members to stay behind with the other three armies to suppress fierce beasts, gathering over forty was more than Yi Chen had anticipated.
However, Yi Chen’s face showed no trace of a smile.
From the eyes of these talented members of the Flame Mountain Tribe, he only saw excitement and urgency.
Only in the area of Guli did the Spirit Law Tribe members display uncontrollable admiration and reverence.
After over a year of fighting in battles, these talented tribe members, accustomed to overpowering ordinary fierce beasts with their stronger power and enjoying the adoration and envy from common warriors, seemed to have become a bit arrogant.
At first, they thought their immense power came entirely from their talents.
Teaching them stronger skills seemed only natural.
Upon seeing their chief, the sense of reverence they once had was completely gone.
The Spirit Law Tribe members of the Eastern Army, where Guli belonged, still maintained some awe, but only because he had slaughtered over a thousand fierce beasts at the Yunxia Tribe base.
While showcasing his powerful strength, he also showed the tribe members that their chief had a bloodthirsty and brutal side.
However, he didn’t have time to visit the other three armies to let them see this brutal side of him.
In the curious gazes of the Spirit Law Tribe members below, Yi Chen did not land but floated in mid-air.
He turned to the high priest beside him and asked, “How did you arrange the priests from the former Green Grass Tribe and Yunxia Tribe?”
“I had them stay by my side to handle some assorted tasks,” the high priest explained somewhat cluelessly.
“Have them find a few tribe members with poor talents but sharp minds and great eloquence to be their disciples, and then send them to the four armies!”
Yi Chen instructed.
“Understood!”
The high priest didn’t fully grasp Yi Chen’s intentions, but that didn’t stop him from agreeing and figuring it out later.
He didn’t want to appear foolish by asking too many questions.
With the rapid increase in tribal population, he, as the high priest, definitely felt the most pressure.
While his power rose, he often felt that everyone wanted to harm him or replace him.
It was overwhelming.
Not only was his hair falling out in clumps, but he had also started suffering from insomnia at night.
Finally, Yi Chen descended towards the ground.
“Chief!”
Everyone perked up, their eyes filled with anticipation.
“I gathered you all here today to teach you more powerful skills.”
Yi Chen approached the stone wall and, next to the Spirit Release Chaos Technique, carved the three big characters for “Chaos Technique” with his iron sword.
Everyone instantly showed expressions of wild joy.
Indeed, the chief was going to teach more powerful skills!
…
“So exciting, so nerve-wracking!”
“It’s happening; the Spirit Law version of the Chaos Technique is coming!”
“Even though I haven’t reached the Spirit Law stage yet, I’m so excited I feel like I could fly.”
“I’ve been waiting for this day to come for so long.”
In the live room, all the viewers clenched their fists, their breaths quickening with nervousness.
After more than eight months, Yi Chen finally began to teach skills again.
…
Yi Chen quickly used Sword Energy to carve the phrases and energy circulation pathways for the Spirit Law version of the "Chaos Technique" onto the stone wall.
“Before I start teaching the Spirit Law version of the Chaos Technique, I need to let you know something in advance.”
“The Spirit Law version of the Chaos Technique is a powerful enhancement method only gods can master. For mortals to learn it, there will be a price to pay.”
“And that price is that in three months, your left arm will gradually wither and rot.”
Yi Chen’s words hit the minds of all Spirit Law Tribe Members like a thunderbolt.
Countless viewers in the live room widened their eyes, instinctively pulling back their necks.
“What’s going on? Has Yi Chen’s cultivation method finally started to have side effects?”
“It’s over, what should we do? In three months, the left arm will slowly wither and rot? Doesn’t that mean learning the Spirit Law version of the Chaos Technique will cost us an arm?”
“This is a shocker; the price feels a bit too steep!”
“What are you afraid of? If one arm disappears, we can go to the hospital for regeneration injections and grow a new one!”
“It’s probably not that simple! Don’t forget that the skill research institute destroyed many talented individuals in their rush to create skills.”
“The meridians of those talented individuals suffered irreversible injuries, which even the best regeneration agents couldn’t fix.”
“This side effect of arm withering and rotting might belong to that same category. Maybe the arm can be repaired, but the meridians and acupoints in the arm might be completely irreparable.”
“What should we do? For those who have already broken through to the first level of Spirit Law, are you going to learn it or not?”
“Yes, after breaking through to the first level of Spirit Law, I dream about raising my level. I’d risk an arm for that!”
A genius at the first level of Spirit Law gritted his teeth, seemingly making a tremendous decision.
“I’ll probably learn it after I break through to the first level of Spirit Law too. To not be able to advance would be worse than death.”
“Ah, I feel the same way…”
The viewers in the live room sighed in dismay.
No one expected that despite forcing themselves not to have excessive hopes and trying to control their excitement, Yi Chen decided to teach the Spirit Law version of the Chaos Technique.
Yet, a huge aftereffect suddenly emerged.
The stock market across the entire galaxy suddenly took a sharp dive, filled with mourning cries.
…
At the Military Headquarters, even with Marshal Iron Blood’s composure and stability, his face turned extremely grim.
He immediately sent out a notice, calling the military bigwigs to discuss this significant unexpected event.
Upon receiving the news, Burton, the leader of the Intelligence Organization representing the Angelic Beings, showed a look of wild joy.
He lacked the calmness and poise expected of an intelligence chief.
