Chapter 200: Terrifying Comprehension | The Sixth Crescent Moon Divine Weapon

~14 min read 2,734 words

"Father, Sword Grandfather, Bone Grandfather." Ning Feiliu greeted Ning Fengzhi, Sword Douluo, and Bone Douluo before him.

Ning Fengzhi merely smiled slightly and clapped his hands; following this, many attendants behind him brought in various warm dishes and placed them on the table in Ning Feiliu's room.

"You haven't had breakfast yet, have some," he said with a smile.

"Father, if you have something to say, just say it directly," Ning Feiliu took a deep breath and then said straight out.

He was still not quite used to Ning Fengzhi being so enthusiastic.

"It's nothing, I just heard from your older brother earlier that you have already initially mastered Distraction Control," Ning Fengzhi said with a smile, "What realm has your Distraction Control reached now?"

Although Ning Feiliu found it a bit strange, he had nothing to hide, so he said directly, "Reporting to Father, my Distraction Control has currently reached the realm of the Four Apertures Constant Heart."

It must be said that the method of Distraction Control is indeed not easy to practice.

The key is that even with his cheat, he cannot fast-track this technique.

After all, although his cheat is very omnipotent, it is not all-powerful.

For something like making him a Supreme God directly, the cheat certainly cannot trigger a mission.

Distraction Control also couldn't trigger any missions, so Ning Feiliu could only "practice ten times" every day, slowly accumulating proficiency.

Over half a year has passed, and he has only reached the level of One Heart Four Uses.

Yet these words of his left Ning Fengzhi, Sword Douluo, and Bone Douluo stunned.

It has actually... reached the realm of the Four Apertures Constant Heart?

Perhaps Ning Feiliu himself does not know that this Distraction Control method, which has no fast-track missions and can only be practiced by himself, is not simple at all.

Like in the original plot, Tang San actually spent half a year practicing Distraction Control and only reached the level of One Heart Two Uses.

Not to mention anything else, Tang San is definitely a genius-like existence in this regard; in his past life, he stole the Tang Sect's secret arts and reached a profound realm with ease.

After coming to the Douluo Continent, he learned things like the Chaotic Cloak Hammer Technique easily, yet he could only cultivate to One Heart Two Uses in half a year.

It is evident that Distraction Control, as the non-transferable secret of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, is not that easy to practice.

It is indeed the case; the direct descendants of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect take at least a year to learn it and reach the entry-level realm of One Heart Two Uses.

Next, it depends on comprehension; it takes a short time of two to three years, or a long time of four to five years, to reach the minimum realm of One Heart Three Uses—the Three Apertures Imperial Heart.

Yet Ning Feiliu reached the level of One Heart Four Uses in just half a year... how could this not be fast?

Most importantly, his own spiritual power is very strong, and coupled with the comprehension and epiphany buff from the previous Wandering God series of missions, his cultivation speed is truly very fast.

Ning Fengzhi and the others were very shocked, and at the same time, they confirmed once again...

No wonder Ning Feiliu could exchange for a rebirth; this level of comprehension... is truly an existence that no one can compare to.

Ning Fengzhi coughed once and then asked somewhat awkwardly, "Then, during this period, do you have any points you don't understand? Father might be able to help you resolve them."

In reality, he felt he wasn't even qualified to instruct Ning Feiliu.

He had spent a full five years practicing the Distraction Control method to the realm of the Four Apertures Constant Heart! He had considered his progress rapid and prided himself on being a genius.

But compared to Ning Feiliu's terrifying speed of reaching the Four Apertures Constant Heart in just half a year, what did his count for?

However, since he had been immersed in the path of Distraction Control for decades and had already practiced it to the realm of the Seven Apertures Exquisite Heart, he could still offer some guidance.

Ning Feiliu thought for a moment; he really did have quite a few questions, so he began to ask Ning Fengzhi.

Hearing Ning Feiliu's questions, Ning Fengzhi also answered them using his own experience as much as possible.

However, he did not expect his guidance to allow Ning Feiliu to make an immediate breakthrough, as such matters of learning and cultivation cannot be forced.

It is like a mathematics PhD teaching a college student how to prove other cardinalities between countable cardinalities and real cardinalities; even if the teacher is very capable, the student also has a certain mathematical foundation.

But it is not something that can be taught immediately.

Yet just as Ning Fengzhi was thinking this.

"So... that's how it is." After listening to Ning Fengzhi's experiential answers, Ning Feiliu revealed an expression of sudden realization, and then he was seen taking the "Finger Pen" gloves he usually used for practicing Distraction Control out of his Soul Guidance Device and putting them on his hands.

This glove had a pen on each finger, and Ning Feiliu operated the pens on his five fingers on a piece of white paper on the table in front of him, writing out five different characters—"Five Apertures Scattered Heart."

Ning Fengzhi, Sword Douluo, and Bone Douluo could not believe it.

This... was clearly One Heart Five Uses, having reached the realm of the Five Apertures Scattered Heart!

Ning Fengzhi opened his mouth wide and said in a somewhat strained voice, "Feiliu, you really... broke through..."

"I still have to thank Father for the guidance, and I feel I can still..." Ning Feiliu took out another pen, held it in his other hand, and began to write on the paper again.

"Could it be..." Ning Fengzhi, Sword Douluo, and Bone Douluo were all somewhat sluggish.

They saw Ning Feiliu using six pens between his two hands to write at once—"Destiny, Domination, Deceit..."

Only this time he wrote very laboriously; bean-sized beads of sweat were visibly appearing on his forehead, and the final character "Deceit" was only written as a crooked "Deceit" radical, with the rest not written out.

(Preventing anyone from nitpicking here first: I know the characters in Douluo Continent are different from Chinese characters; this is just a metaphor, no need to take it too seriously.) Ning Feiliu had no choice but to stop his hands and sighed, "Still not working..."

However, Ning Fengzhi, Sword Douluo, and Bone Douluo were already very shocked; this already meant that Ning Feiliu had initially entered the realm of the "Six Apertures As-You-Will Heart."

Looking at this situation, it would not take long before he could fully master the "Six Apertures As-You-Will Heart."

And this was only because Ning Fengzhi had answered a few questions for Ning Feiliu.

Still the same point: even if a mathematics PhD comes to explain professional math problems to you, can you understand them immediately and draw inferences about other cases? Clearly, most people cannot do that.

Ning Feiliu's comprehension was truly so exaggerated that Ning Fengzhi, Sword Douluo, and Bone Douluo found it too much...

They had already thought Ning Feiliu was very smart, but they did not expect this to be just the tip of the iceberg.

In less than an hour, just through a few words from Ning Fengzhi, he had practiced Distraction Control to the realm of the Five Apertures Scattered Heart and faintly touched the realm of the "Six Apertures As-You-Will Heart."

This level of comprehension... no wonder he could defy the heavens and change fate to come up with the "Crescent Moon Martial Soul Forging Method," no wonder he could develop the "Mysterious Water Pill," no wonder he could self-create such world-shaking "techniques" as the summoning of the God of Casting and the summoning of the God of Ice and Snow...

Seeing Ning Feiliu still looking disappointed, Ning Fengzhi felt even more like he had lived his life in vain.

He had practiced Distraction Control for decades, yet the result was not as good as someone else's two or three years of effort.

He believed that with Ning Feiliu's terrifying comprehension, he might really reach the realm of the "Seven Apertures Exquisite Heart" in two or three years in the future. But he still smiled and said to Ning Feiliu, "Feiliu... you are already very impressive; there is no need to be too impatient."

"I still have to thank Father." Ning Feiliu also knew well that he could not be impatient; his current speed was already considered very fast.

He believed that before long, he would be able to break through to the realm of the "Seven Apertures Exquisite Heart," complete this corresponding mission, and unlock the reward of that "Double Divine Weapon."

"Come, let's have breakfast together first." Ning Fengzhi smiled as he sat down and said to Ning Feiliu.

"Yes, Father." Ning Feiliu's mood was much better at this moment, and he was willing to accompany Ning Fengzhi and the others for breakfast or whatever.

After all, he had also benefited from Ning Fengzhi.

Ning Fengzhi was not just eating breakfast; he continued to chat happily with Ning Feiliu, saying, "This pastry is something I remember you loved to eat when you were a child, so I specifically asked the head chef in the kitchen to make extra."

Ning Feiliu looked at the exquisite pastry in front of him, and he was drooling a little.

Perhaps he had truly merged with the original owner's Spirit Soul; these were not the pastries he liked to eat, but now he was eating them with great relish.

Seeing that Ning Feiliu really liked eating them, Ning Fengzhi also revealed a sincere smile.

"Feiliu, your father really dotes on you; he even remembers what you like to eat," Bone Douluo said with a chuckle from the side.

Ning Feiliu was noncommittal; in fact, Ning Fengzhi did not completely ignore him or throw his useless son on the side of the road.

From his previous experiences to the fact that Ning Fengzhi remembered what the original owner liked to eat as a child, it could be said that Ning Fengzhi just didn't care that much about the original owner, possessing only a modicum of a father's love for his child.

But because his value was not high, this bit of fatherly love was not much either.

"Gu Yeye, I know... I don't have too many complaints against the sect or Father," Ning Feiliu said calmly at this moment.

He truly disliked Ning Rongrong, but as for the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and Ning Fengzhi... it could only be said that he treated them with the same attitude they had previously treated Ning Feiliu with.

And as for the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's previous attitude toward him...

It was merely indifference and lack of concern toward Ning Feiliu, and Ning Fengzhi was the same, only caring for Ning Feiliu slightly due to the blood relationship between father and son.

Then, of course, Ning Feiliu was also indifferent toward the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and Ning Fengzhi; it was impossible for him to have any feelings of dislike or hatred because of this.

"Then Feiliu, you should have told your father about your affairs earlier," Sword Douluo sighed at this moment and said.

If Ning Feiliu had told them earlier about the Crescent Moon Martial Soul Forging Method, Mysterious Water Pill, Exploding Ring technique, and Moonlight Breathing Method he had come up with, they would definitely have valued Ning Feiliu and cultivated him as the future of the sect.

It's just that...

Ning Feiliu said indifferently at this moment, "If I had told you about these things back then, and the Crescent Moon Martial Soul Forging Method and Immortal Herbs were placed before you, would you, Jian Yeye and Father, have believed me? And... would you have chosen to let me do it?"

Suddenly, Ning Fengzhi, Sword Douluo, and Bone Douluo were stifled.

If Ning Feiliu had told them at the time that there was a method where consuming an Immortal Herb could allow a martial soul to upgrade to a Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda.

They would indeed have been skeptical, but if it were confirmed to be true... they would have chosen without hesitation to let Ning Fengzhi consume the Qiluo Tulip Immortal Herb.

Because if Ning Fengzhi consumed this Immortal Herb and upgraded his martial soul to a Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect would immediately have an eighty-level Auxiliary System Spirit Douluo, the likes of which were unique on the current Douluo Continent.

In a few years, there might even be an Auxiliary System Title Douluo!

The improvement this would bring to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect was very obvious.

And even if Ning Fengzhi didn't consume this unique Immortal Herb, although it sounded unfair, Ning Fengzhi, Sword Douluo, and Bone Douluo would certainly have given it to Ning Rongrong.

It might even have been the turn of the eldest brother, Ning Mingrui, before it would ever be Ning Feiliu's turn to consume this precious Immortal Herb.

Because Ning Feiliu's "innate talent" was insufficient.

And to them, the interests of the sect were paramount; although Ning Feiliu was the one who proposed the idea, he would have had to step aside for the sake of the sect's interests.

The same went for the Crescent Moon Martial Soul Forging Method.

If they could cultivate a direct-lineage Battle Soul Master, Ning Fengzhi, Sword Douluo, and Bone Douluo would have preferred to let Ning Rongrong or Ning Mingrui try it.

Once Ning Feiliu said this, they were immediately speechless, because they now understood why Ning Feiliu did not trust them.

Even the fact that Ning Feiliu did not confess all of this to them after his transformation had a good explanation.

Just like that, the scene fell into silence.

Ning Fengzhi, Sword Douluo, and Bone Douluo did not try to persuade Ning Feiliu now about thinking for the sake of the sect.

As shrewd people, they knew very well that this would only cause the relationship that had just eased with Ning Feiliu to deteriorate rapidly.

There was no benefit in that; it was better to remain silent and let the matter drop.

Ning Feiliu did not continue to say anything either; if he kept talking, it would be awkward for everyone, and he did not want to get any apologies or answers.

The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect was ultimately not his sect.

Ning Fengzhi sighed, then smiled and changed the subject, asking, "However, Feiliu, your Crescent Moon Martial Soul Forging Method has now produced five Crescent Moon Divine Weapons; actually, according to your vision, it should be..."

After all, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda martial soul itself possesses six different powers, corresponding to strength, speed, attack, defense, soul power, and spirit.

Among them, the power of spirit is quite special; one can absorb a Soul Ring according to the soul skill one needs, turning it into a Healing Spirit Skill, Mental Amplification, or further special Enhancement.

Ning Feiliu's current five Crescent Moon Divine Weapons only used the five different powers of strength, speed, attack, defense, and spirit.

Theoretically, he still had a power within him belonging to "soul power" Enhancement, which could also be used to forge a Crescent Moon Divine Weapon.

It's just that... Ning Feiliu had originally forged the five Crescent Moon Divine Weapons based on the Moonstone Weapon of Aphelios, and the sixth Crescent Moon Divine Weapon...

He really didn't know what to forge.

Especially since this corresponded to the power of "soul power" Enhancement.

What could this power be forged into? He didn't know either.

"But I don't know what this power of soul power Enhancement can be forged into. What exactly is this 'soul power' of ours?" Ning Feiliu said somewhat blankly.

Ruined King's Blade or the great iron hammer Nightfall of the iron man, which one do you think is better?

It is mainly as a symbol of the god of the Underworld.
