Chapter 525: Chapter 524: Full Level Star Shifting
Ding Ling never expected to learn such a Divine Skill here and felt quite joyful about it.
This Divine Skill, which he had never learned before, promised to effortlessly enhance his ability to grab and handle objects from a distance.
After testing it out, he found, indeed, that he could easily seize a chair ten meters away by wielding the Vigorous Qi of the Crane Controlling Art, quickly pulling it to his side.
Such a miraculous Technique was indeed extraordinary.
Ding Ling nodded to himself.
He placed the Technique of the Crane Controlling Art into the Storage Pouch, planning to leave it for Mu Wanqing and others to cultivate.
No need to say more.
This Technique had an extremely high cultivation difficulty.
The threshold for cultivation required at least First-class Inner Power level!
Otherwise, it would be impossible to grab objects in the air.
The higher the cultivation of Inner Strength, the heavier the things that could be seized.
Moreover, there were various harsh requirements for this Technique, which could bewilder even an Innate Expert without guidance. Only someone like Ding Ling, with his superior Grandmaster insights, could pinpoint issues and suggest solutions, helping others break through and reach the cultivation threshold.
"Originally, I could also release Qi Force to grab objects, but never this effortlessly and freely."
Ding Ling’s spirits lifted, and he continued to flip through.
Soon, he finished another book.
[Returning Wind Willow Saber Full Level]
[Strength +0.1]
[Agility +0.1]
[Constitution +0.1]
This was also a High Tier Saber Technique.
Continuing.
[Demon Suppression Saber Technique Full Level]
[Strength +0.1]
[Agility +0.1]
[Constitution +0.1]
...
One book after another finished.
Most of them were First-class Secret Manuals.
Totaling over twenty books.
Over thirty books were barely entering the First-class threshold, and after Ding Ling read them, they all reached full level, though these Secret Manuals no longer provided him with Four-dimensional Attribute Points.
At last.
Ding Ling’s Four-dimensional Attribute Points increased to:
[Strength +2.1]
[Agility +2.1]
[Constitution +2.1]
Very balanced.
Even though most of these Secret Manuals were High Tier First-class, they were quite inferior compared to superior Techniques like the Crane Controlling Art.
However, being able to increase so many attribute points was excellent for Ding Ling.
He glanced at the Character Panel:
[Bone Structure 5 (ordinary people have 1 point), Wisdom 5, Strength 66, Agility 66.3, Constitution 72.7, Defense 60, Charm 12.4, True Power Value: 16 points]
Strength and Agility were close to climbing to 70 points.
Now Ding Ling didn’t need Breathing Technique or Inner Power, relying solely on brute force to make some First-class Experts bleed profusely!
Utilizing Breathing Technique.
No need to say more.
With Breathing Technique and Inner Power combined, few in the world could match him!
"Strange. Where are Star Shifting and Canhe Finger?"
Ding Ling began activating the ’Stargazing Skill,’ ’Array-Related Skills,’ and ’Mechanical Skill’ abilities.
Under the ’Eyes of Golden Flame.’
Before long.
He discovered something peculiar.
Immediately walked to the southeast corner, crouched down slightly, and knocked on the floor tile, indeed it was different!
Afraid that using Martial Arts like Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms would damage the Secret Manuals, he took out the Giant Que Sword and pried the floor tile up with the tip of the sword, his strength undeniable.
Easily prying up piece by piece of floor tile.
Then digging some earth, two feet under, he indeed touched a metal box, speeding up, he dug out all the soil from two feet below, then reached down, pulled out a metal box, wiped off the dirt on the box with his hands, and gently pointed with his index finger at the lock side of the box, Shangyang Sword Qi shot out, clang!
The iron lock broke.
Ding Ling opened the metal box.
Sure enough, he saw several Secret Manuals inside, along with several Treasure Beads emitting radiant light.
"What is this?!"
Jiu Mozhi, hearing the commotion, had already hurried over to watch, now finally seeing the treasures inside the metal box, couldn’t help but feel a bit excited.
He truly hadn’t expected Ding Ling to be so defiant of heaven.
Even capable of uncovering treasures hidden deeply by the Murong Clan!
If he were to try, he’d be groping in the dark! Treasures before him, unaware!
"Star Shifting!"
Ling Yanqiu’s eyes shone brightly, immediately recognizing the name of the top Secret Manual.
"It’s Star Shifting!"
Jiu Mozhi’s breathing became labored.
Compared to other Martial Arts.
This Star Shifting was truly the Unparalleled Martial Arts worth cultivating!
He looked imploringly at Ding Ling, hoping that Ding Ling would have mercy!
Ding Ling ignored him, continuing to browse on his own.
He usually did this to avoid prolonged delays and unexpected events, starting to read immediately once he got a Secret Manual, anyway with cheat skills, reading led to full level in no time!
Ding Ling naturally wouldn’t leave it for later.
Rustle!
Reading books like flipping through pages.
Soon.
As the library added another book.
[Star Shifting Full Level]
[Strength +0.2]
[Agility +0.2]
[Constitution +0.3]
In an instant, Star Shifting reached the Great Perfection Innate Ability level.
Ding Ling savored the feeling carefully.
Discovering this Star Shifting indeed extraordinary.
Using power to counter power, no matter what martial arts the opponent uses, it can deflect the force back onto the opponent! Whether it’s inner strength, weapons, or fists and feet, they can all be redirected by the Star Shifting, causing the opponent to suffer the consequences!
Especially Ding Ling.
After reaching full level.
The force coming from the opponent can be bounced back as long as it does not exceed his!
Especially since Ding Ling has mastered the Hundred Schools of Martial Arts, any attack within them can be easily countered and bounced back by him!
As long as the opponent’s cultivation does not surpass his, he can stand still and let others hit him without getting hurt!
"Truly remarkable."
Ding Ling nodded in secret.
This Star Shifting is akin to the Tai Chi Scripture!
Except Tai Chi focuses on using little to move much, using stillness to control movement, and softness to counteract hardness!
While Star Shifting focuses on reflection!
Both have extremely high defense! Once executed, it’s difficult for others to break through the defense, but the nuances differ.
Especially after reaching full level.
This difference becomes relatively apparent.
But Ding Ling estimated that mastering Star Shifting to full level would take decades of grinding effort.
Only upon reaching the full level can one feel the power and unrivaled might of this technique!
The Great Perfection stage of Star Shifting can’t freely reflect the opponent’s attacks, only full level can!
Ding Ling finished reading Star Shifting.
He then picked up the next.
And quickly finished it as well.
[Canhe Finger Full Level]
[Strength +0.2]
[Agility +0.2]
[Constitution +0.2]
After reaching full level.
Ding Ling also realized the power of this finger technique, its air attacks being no less potent than the One Yang Finger.
Moreover, the Qi Force unleashed by this finger technique is invisible and formless, making it difficult for ordinary people to detect.
It’s just that the difficulty of mastering this finger technique is similar to that of the One Yang Finger!
Reaching full level is as hard as reaching the heavens! Even for a peerless genius, it’s impossible to reach full level without diligently studying for decades!
Yet Ding Ling reached full level in an instant.
He extended his index finger, pointing invisibly towards a wall, and where the finger wind passed, there was a whizzing sound!
The walls, several feet thick, were instantly pierced through!
The walls of the Returning Water Pavilion where the secret manuals are stored are specially made, extremely wide and thick.
Yet they were pierced by the invisible Qi Force of Canhe Finger!
"...!!!"
Jiu Mozhi looked stupefied.
Duan Yu was envious, thinking: "I read North Nether Divine Skill and Ripple Step for so long, and only gained a little. Yet Brother Ding not only read all the secret manuals, but it seems he has also practiced Murong Clan’s Star Shifting and Canhe Finger to an extraordinary level!
This kind of innate talent is truly out of reach for me.
If I, Duan Yu, could have such talent, how wonderful it would be. Then I wouldn’t have to study diligently. I would only need to spend a little time, and I might become a peerless expert."
Ling Yanqiu, Zhong Ling, and Mu Wanqing were equally moved, but having frequently seen Ding Ling succeed quickly in learning various divine skills, they were much more composed, almost as if accustomed to it, feeling it normal for Ding Ling to master things rapidly.
Jiu Mozhi, though having seen it a few times, still couldn’t remain calm. He just looked at Ding Ling with wide eyes, with a clear meaning.
Ding Ling picked up a Treasure Bead and looked at it for a couple of moments, was it a Luminous Pearl?
It’s not necessarily worth as much as a city, but it’s definitely significant.
Ding Ling put it away, placing it into his Storage Pouch.
To Jiu Mozhi, Ding Ling’s Storage Pouch seemed like a divine object, and seeing Ding Ling put away treasure and secret manuals now led to regret, but he dared not entertain such thoughts.
Ding Ling’s gaze was like a torch, penetrating people’s minds, a fact that Jiu Mozhi had long been aware of, hence he dared not harbor any ulterior motives in Ding Ling’s presence.
"There are two more secret manuals."
Ding Ling picked them up and examined them carefully.
[Murong Clan’s Inherited Sword Technique Full Level]
[Strength +0.1]
[Agility +0.2]
[Constitution +0.1]
Just a superior high-tier sword technique.
Compared to ordinary first-class secret manuals, though much stronger, it pales compared to Star Shifting and Canhe Finger.
The second one.
[Murong Clan’s Inherited Inner Power Heart Method Full Level]
[Inner Power Value +100]
Whoosh whoosh!
Endless Spiritual Mechanism and Primordial Qi surged forth.
Engulfing Ding Ling.
Seeing this scene.
Jiu Mozhi and Duan Yu couldn’t help but feel a twinge in their teeth.
This state is obvious.
Ding Ling undoubtedly cultivated an inner power to an extremely profound level, otherwise, it wouldn’t induce such a rush of Heaven and Earth’s Spiritual Mechanism and Primordial Qi!
"Truly enviable. Such talent is truly unmatched, rarely seen through the ages!"
Jiu Mozhi was filled with envy.
His heart was extremely sour.
Comparing himself to Ding Ling.
He felt like a worthless person! The longer he followed Ding Ling, the more evident this feeling became.
He was deeply moved by it.
Especially seeing Ding Ling, despite his great talent, still diligently cultivating martial arts and never speaking arrogantly, he even considered him a role model, feeling that he must learn to be as humble, brave, and fierce as Ding Ling in the future.
[True Power Value: 17 Points]
In Ding Ling’s Dantian, a stream of North Nether True Qi instantly appeared, merging together, forming North Nether True Water, and the True Power value rose again.
"I have grown stronger again."
Ding Ling took a deep breath, thinking:
"If this continues, becoming a Grandmaster is truly just within reach."
Ding Ling felt he was leveling up extremely fast.
But this was also normal.
Because he was cheating.
"Time to leave."
At Canhe Manor’s Returning Water Pavilion, all the secret manuals had been read by Ding Ling.
Even the iron box buried deep underground was dug up by him.
