After a while, Bai Zisheng came running over, full of excitement. He had just gone to spar with a disciple from the Five Elements Sect and returned triumphantly, ready to show off to Mo Hua. However, he saw Mo Hua sitting at the railing, gazing into the distance with a far-off look in his eyes. Zixi was doing the same. So Bai Zisheng sat down too, following their lead, and looked up at the sky. After a while, there was still nothing in the sky. Bai Zisheng couldn’t help but ask, "Junior Brother, what are you looking at?" Mo Hua replied lazily, "Looking at the sky." "The sky?" "There’s nothing there, so what are you looking at?" Bai Zisheng didn’t quite understand, but he couldn’t help joining his sister and his junior brother in sitting and staring at the clear sky for a long time... … After sitting for a long time, Bai Zisheng eventually couldn’t stand the boredom and said, "Junior Brother, let me teach you a Taoist skill!" Mo Hua was startled, "A Taoist skill?" "Yes." Bai Zisheng nodded proudly, "I created it myself, a Tao Cultivation martial art!" "I’m not learning it." Mo Hua declined decisively. Bai Zisheng was stunned, "Why won’t you learn it?" Mo Hua sighed, "One, I don’t practice body refinement; two, I don’t study martial arts; three, if you created it, it certainly won’t work." Bai Zisheng said with displeasure, "How can it not work just because I created it?" "You’re only in the Qi Refinement Realm, what kind of impressive Taoist skill could you create?" "Let me show you!" Bai Zisheng grasped his spear, ready to demonstrate to Mo Hua. Mo Hua quickly gestured with his hands, "Forget it, take a break..." "Not happening!" Mo Hua sighed in resignation, "Fine then, demonstrate and let’s see." The three found an empty space, surrounded by artificial mountains and green waters, the scenery tranquil. Bai Zisheng was serious, holding the spear with both hands, gathering momentum as the wind howled and the vegetation trembled. Mo Hua’s expression also became more serious. "This is a spear technique that descends from the heavens!" Bai Zisheng declared. After gathering his spiritual power, he suddenly leaped into the air, assuming a very imposing pose and shouted: "Dragon Soaring in the Sky!" Then, like a rainbow, the spear plunged downward, fiercely stabbing into the ground and kicking up a bit of dust... Mo Hua was stunned for a long time, feeling uncomfortable with the awkwardness. It felt as if ants were crawling over his body. Bai Zixi also covered her mouth, struggling to suppress her laughter. After the demonstration, Bai Zisheng, having lost his earlier pride, said with some embarrassment, "Isn’t it good?" Mo Hua said helplessly, "The charge-up time is too long, there are too many openings in the movements, it consumes too much spiritual power, and the power it unleashes is too weak..." Find your next read at freewebnovel "If you’re fighting a spiritual cultivator, jumping into the air makes you an easy target." "Against a body cultivator, your long charge-up would have gotten you slashed already." "And this name..." Dragon Soaring in the Sky... A Qi Refinement Realm technique with such a name made Mo Hua so embarrassed he didn’t know what to say. But Bai Zisheng insisted, "The name is the essence, you can criticize everything else, but not this name!" Mo Hua asked skeptically, "You didn’t create this fancy but impractical technique just for the name, right..." Bai Zisheng, feeling guilty, "Of course not!" Indeed, he had impulsively created this technique because he thought the name sounded cool. Bai Zisheng then said, "It can’t be that bad... I’ve used this technique against those Inner Sect Disciples of the Five Elements Sect, hit every single one accurately, hardly finding an equal in a match!" Mo Hua replied helplessly, "That’s because your cultivation level is too high. Even without using any Taoist skills, they would find it hard to resist you..." Although Bai Zisheng was only in Qi Refinement, he was already capable of facing a Foundation Establishment head-on. The Qi Refinement disciples of the Five Elements Sect naturally stood no chance against him. Furthermore, the Five Elements Sect was rich in Spirit Stones, too comfortable, with disciples’ Taoist Hearts scattered and their strength itself quite ordinary. That’s why Bai Zisheng was able to triumph using this merely "flashy" Taoist skill... Bai Zisheng felt unhappy after being criticized by Mo Hua. Mo Hua paused, then comforted him, "It’s not good now, but if you refine it more, who knows, it might really become a Taoist skill that will shake the world and be passed down for generations!" Bai Zisheng’s eyes lit up and he immediately said, "Then I’ll teach you!" Mo Hua waved his hands, "I don’t need to learn it, I’m a Spiritual Cultivator, I need to use spells..." "The more skills, the better!" Bai Zisheng insisted. "I already know enough, can’t afford to dabble in too many..." Bai Zisheng said, "Learning this technique will be beneficial." "What benefit?" Mo Hua asked, puzzled. Bai Zisheng with a serious face, "It’s very impressive!" Mo Hua: "..." "I’m thinking of your future," Bai Zisheng said earnestly, "You’ll definitely want to find a Taoist companion in the future. Although you are quite good-looking, clean and fair, you are nonetheless not from Noble Clans. Actually finding a good Taoist companion will be difficult." "You don’t know that the women from noble families are mostly very materialistic; they look at lineage, at Spiritual Roots, at the wealth of Spirit Stones, at whether you have a cave dwelling or not..." "You’d be at quite a disadvantage there." "Also, the Taoist skills you’ve learned are mostly just Concealment Techniques, Water Prison Techniques, the more sinister kind." "In a battle, you’d sneak around, hide far away and throw fireballs, not standing out in the fight." "Though this way of fighting is very effective, not standing out puts you at a disadvantage." 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮 "Not standing out means you are not impressive, and if you’re not impressive, it’s hard to attract women’s interest." Bai Zisheng’s gaze was intense, "That’s why I’m teaching you this technique!" "When it comes time to play the hero and save the beauty, first use the Fireball Technique to cripple the other guy, so he can’t resist, and then finish off your opponent with Dragon Soaring in the Sky, looking fierce and imposing!"
