Chapter 59

The white jade centipede has a little-known characteristic: it loves to feed on blood that contains yang energy. That's why, when they were in the cold pond, Wei Changfeng easily lured them out with rooster's blood.

Another trait of these centipedes is that, as long as there is food, they will eat without restraint!

Ouyang Feng's body had accumulated yang energy for decades, and it was so abundant that the nine white jade centipedes could never completely drain it. As a result, they were literally burst from overeating.

Wei Changfeng had anticipated this situation. The reason he didn't catch more white jade centipedes was that no one could withstand a large amount of blood loss in a short time, and this was already the limit.

As the white jade centipedes exploded, Ouyang Feng's face, which had gradually turned pale, suddenly turned red. His eyes widened, and his expression became fierce, with blood flowing from all seven orifices!

The yang energy had backfired!

Wei Changfeng's eyes narrowed, and he suddenly extended his hands to grasp six golden needles, inserting them into six major acupoints on Ouyang Feng's body.

As the golden needles entered his body, six streams of yang energy gushed out!

Controlling six golden needles at the same time had already exceeded his current limits, so his final action of withdrawing his fingers was inevitably a bit slow, allowing the yang energy to invade his palm meridians.

Wei Changfeng's body trembled, and he spat out a mouthful of blood, falling backward to the ground!

Ouyang Feng's strength far surpassed his, and even a trace of yang energy was quite powerful. The backlash had injured his internal organs.

Fortunately, the Tai Xu Nine Heavens Yang Heart Technique that Wei Changfeng practiced was highly effective. By activating it, he generated a continuous flow of dan energy, quickly neutralizing the invading yang energy and preventing further damage.

What a close call!

Wei Changfeng slowly sat up and looked at Ouyang Feng, who was just a few steps away.

The mad elder had his eyes tightly closed, his face alternating between white and red, and a wisp of white vapor rising from his head, clearly indicating that he was using his energy to combat the residual yang energy in his body.

At this point, the outcome could only depend on Ouyang Feng himself, and Wei Changfeng was powerless to help.

However, even in the worst-case scenario, it would still be much better than before.

So Wei Changfeng had no regrets!

After a moment, Ouyang Feng's face returned to normal, and the white vapor from his head disappeared.

He suddenly opened his eyes, his pupils shining with a sharp light.

Then he raised his head and let out a long howl!

Whew~

The loud and resonant howl broke through the many obstacles of the building, piercing the clouds and spreading in all directions.

The howl was filled with boundless joy and liberation!

Wei Changfeng felt an invisible wave of energy surge toward him, pushing him back several steps!

At this moment, everyone in Jingyun Martial Academy heard Ouyang Feng's howl and turned their attention to the direction of the library, speculating and discussing the cause.

After a full half-hour, Ouyang Feng finally stopped howling.

Wei Changfeng bowed and said with a smile, "Congratulations, Senior, on your complete recovery and the advancement of your cultivation!"

Although he couldn't tell how strong Ouyang Feng was, it was clear that he had not only healed his internal injuries but also broken through to a higher realm, releasing his energy in a howl.

"Ha ha ha!"

Ouyang Feng laughed heartily, his face glowing and his voice like a bronze bell, "I owe my recovery to you!"

Wei Changfeng smiled slightly and said, "I am merely returning the favor for your generous gifts. I dare not take credit!"

He took out a medicine box he had prepared and handed it to Ouyang Feng, "Senior, this box of Yiyuan Pills is made by me. It can replenish essence and qi, and is most suitable for you."

Although Ouyang Feng had just recovered from a serious illness, he now seemed full of energy, but his vital energy must have been severely depleted and would need some time to fully recover.

This box of third-grade Yiyuan Pills, which he had refined the previous night, was all of medium and high quality!

Ouyang Feng, knowing his own condition, did not refuse and took the medicine box, saying, "Consider this a debt of gratitude. Whatever you want, as long as I can do it, I will make sure you are satisfied!"

This was a reward for his contribution, and Wei Changfeng pondered for a moment.

To be honest, he didn't really have any specific requests for Ouyang Feng.

Although Ouyang Feng was an elder and master of Jingyun Martial Academy and in charge of the library, he had no real influence in the academy and was quite low-key.

This was because Ouyang Feng had once sworn to guard the library and had not left it for decades, so he could not participate in the academy's affairs.

Therefore, if Wei Changfeng wanted to advance to the upper academy and then to higher levels, Ouyang Feng could not help much. The chief librarian disciple was the most he could offer.

On the other hand, using up favors too quickly would diminish their value. Wei Changfeng was not foolish enough to make excessive demands and waste this valuable favor.

But not asking for anything at all would also be inappropriate.

He thought for a moment and said, "I want to learn a lightness technique. I wonder, Senior..."

Both times he entered the Qingmang Mountains, Wei Changfeng had narrowly escaped death, and his biggest realization was that he needed to learn a lightness technique for escaping. So he was determined to cultivate one this time.

His soul memory contained over a dozen lightness techniques, but the lowest cultivation requirement was the Xiantian realm!

In his previous life, Wei Changfeng had set his standards too high, ignoring anything that wasn't a heavenly or earthly level technique, and showing no interest in anything that wasn't a true transmission or original text.

It was too late to regret it now, so he could only follow the steps and accumulate slowly.

"Lightness technique?"

Ouyang Feng stroked his sparse beard and smiled, "A way to escape, right?"

Wei Changfeng chuckled, acknowledging it.

Ouyang Feng said, "This request is not difficult. My sect has a technique called Phantom Escape, which you can cultivate at your current level, though it is only a high-grade yellow-level technique, and can be cultivated up to the Xiantian realm."

The Xiantian realm is enough!

Wei Changfeng was overjoyed, "Please, Senior, teach me!"

Phantom Escape was not a pure lightness technique but was divided into two parts: stealth and escape. It was most suitable for fleeing from strong enemies.

This high-grade yellow-level technique had five levels, and at the highest level, one could escape even from opponents much stronger than oneself.

Ouyang Feng immediately taught Phantom Escape to Wei Changfeng.

The technique was quite complex, involving the use of true qi, coordination of the body and steps, and imitation of agile animals, which greatly tested the learner's comprehension.

Comprehension was precisely Wei Changfeng's strength, and he often grasped the concepts with just a few words from Ouyang Feng.

One taught diligently and in detail, while the other learned with focus and speed. In just a short morning, Wei Changfeng mastered the basic principles of the technique.

He moved back and forth in the library, nimbly avoiding bookshelves, moving with ease and agility, though not as refined as crane-like or fox-like movements, but much faster!

The key to Phantom Escape was the continuous use of true qi, which maintained the speed as long as the qi did not run out.

However, using the technique consumed a lot of true qi, and with Wei Changfeng's current cultivation, he could only maintain it for half a moment, but it was enough for escaping.

"It seems this technique really suits you..."

Ouyang Feng watched for a while and sighed, "But to become a true strong person, you can't just rely on escaping!"

Wei Changfeng stopped and said solemnly, "I understand!"

Although it was a bit of a setback, he was clear that learning Phantom Escape was just for self-defense. Spending too much energy on it would be putting the cart before the horse!

Ouyang Feng nodded, "You don't need to come for the next few days. I plan to enter seclusion to consolidate my realm, at least for ten days!"

Wei Changfeng asked, "What about the library?"

The Jingyun Martial Academy library was open for four days each month for disciples to exchange and purchase techniques and manuals. If Ouyang Feng was in seclusion for over ten days, one of the open days would be missed.

Ouyang Feng rolled his eyes and replied irritably, "What can be done? Closing the library for a few days won't kill anyone!"

Wei Changfeng could only concede.

Leaving the library and returning to his dormitory, he was about to go out for lunch when he met Li Chen.

In the academy, the person Wei Changfeng was closest to was this Master Li Chen, so the latter warmly invited him to a restaurant for a drink, and Wei Changfeng happily agreed.

At the restaurant, they ordered a few dishes and drinks. After the waiter brought the drinks, they started eating and drinking together.

After a few drinks, Li Chen looked around and, lowering his voice, asked Wei Changfeng, "Where have you been these past few days? Some people in the academy are saying you've run away!"

Wei Changfeng laughed, "My family is in Jingyun City. Where else could I go?"

Li Chen said, "I thought so too. And I heard that Hao Ren took on a mission at Qingyun Hall and led a group to the Qingmang Mountains. The reward for the mission is said to be a high-grade third-level Hou Tu Pill!"

Wei Changfeng's heart stirred, "This is for Hao Xiong, right?"

Li Chen tapped the table and said, "Hao Xiong is cultivating an earth-phase technique, and this Hou Tu Pill will help him break through his bottleneck. They are really plotting against you!"

Wei Changfeng secretly sneered. Their plan was well thought out, but Hao Ren would never return.

Of course, he knew that whether Hao Ren returned or not, the Hou Tu Pill would eventually end up in Hao Xiong's hands, one way or another!

Li Chen said earnestly, "Junior, you mustn't be careless. Hao Xiong is already stronger than you, and if his physical cultivation technique breaks through, your battle with him will be even harder. You need to prepare early!"

Wei Changfeng nodded and raised his cup, "I understand. Thank you, Master Li, for your reminder. I'll drink to that!"

Li Chen smiled, "You're too polite, Junior. With Master Dongfang as your teacher, your future is boundless. Just don't forget your senior when the time comes."

Wei Changfeng laughed heartily and drank the wine in one gulp!
