BXBX NOVEL Chapter 197 106 Yarns
At the rear mountain.
Roshi's strength had at the very least reached the 5th Level Core Formation stage, far surpassing everyone present.
Hence, when the spiritual energy pressure surged towards Ezra Zephyr, his breathing turned a little ragged.
~CRAKLE CRAACKLE~
However, just as Roshi was about to force the prince into a miserable state, the clothes at his area moved as black lightning bolted its way out with a deafening thundering noise.
The black bolts leapt out, dancing around the body of Ezra Zephyr as the sliver of reddish lightning gleamed. In a short span of seconds, Ezra unleashed his spiritual energy. Savagery violently pulsed from it as berserk Chaos Force began to wreak havoc.
~CRAACKLE CRAACKLE~
The entire hall shook as Roshi's spiritual energy pressure was instantly ripped to shreds, causing him to be forced back several steps by Chaos lightning's ferocity as his face paled slightly.
Roshi's complexion was steely green with fear and anger as he sternly shouted, "You dare to use your spiritual energy to hurt me?!"
The prince swept the former a cold look as he spread his signature grin on his face. After sweeping a glance at Roshi, the chaotic bolts of lightning began to shrink.
The hall was now a mess, Moshi and the other disciples scurrying to the side as they looked towards Ezra in uncertainty.
Behind Ezra came a lady in a red dress. Her red lips parted slightly as she said, "Senior brother Roshi, your rejection is not in line with the rules. It will not be good for you either if the law enforcement group finds out."
Roshi looked at the girl, she was none other than Ravina Ingale. A smile was revealed on his face. "Since junior sister Ravina has spoken, I will naturally give face."
Ravina's elder was one of the high ranking members of the Spirit Devouring Mountain, and Roshu naturally did not dare to offend her.
His gaze turned to Ezra Zephyr as he coldly snorted. "You may stay on account of junior sister Ravina. However, no bastardly attitude is allowed in my hall, so you'll have to throw that cocky attitude of yours out before returning."
However, the prince merely glanced at the former coldly and said, "Can't even beat an unofficial outer mountain disciple, what can I learn by staying here? It will only be a waste of Spirit jade."
Contempt rose from the corners of his mouth, ignoring Roshi's white with rage complexion as he turned around and left.
Roshi's eyes darkened as he watched the man from Naran Continent leave. Soon after, he let out a chilling chuckle.
"What an ignorant fool… go ahead with your arrogance, do you really think you'll be able to learn the Gossamer Steps technique without my guidance?
When you've squandered away all of your Spirit jade, you'll still end up coming back to beg me!"
After leaving the rear mountain, Ezra's expression was still somewhat gloomy. He had not expected such a coincidence to occur. To think that the instructor he encountered would be Moshi's elder brother.
Looks like Ravina had meant well when she tried to warn him earlier. She was just a little too proud and had not fully explained everything.
"I refuse to believe that I will be unable to learn the technique without an instructor."
Ezra grasped the jade strip as his eyes hardened. It was indeed not a simple task to learn a gamma layer skill, but he did not believe he would really be unable to learn it without any guidance. In the worst-case scenario, he would just have to waste a little more time.
Even though he said so, Roshi had really ruined his mood today.
Ezra was in a slightly foul mood as he left the rear mountain and went to his little house.
It was then that he heard the voice of his partner. "Boy..."
"Shut up Fenrir, I am already pissed." Ezra retorted.
"Hoho, why didn't you kill him then?" Fenrir mocked.
"I am not an idiot, now let me think of a way to learn this spiritual technique."
Fenrir laughed and said "A mere outer mountain disciple will at best have an elementary mastery of the Gossamer Steps skill. How can he possibly have the qualifications to master it completely?
If you had chosen to stay, it would only have been a waste of Spirit jades. Those spirit jades would be better off used to other important ingredients."
After a small pause, Fenrir spoke again. "Let's see the spiritual technique that you have chosen." Fenrir said in a low-pitched voice, he looked interested.
The werewolf prince retrieved the jade strip and opened it.
Fenrir looked at it through Ezra's gaze and slightly shut his eyes. A long while later, he slowly opened them and said, "This spiritual technique is a little useful. Your judgement is not bad.
Learning it is not difficult, it merely requires first knitting 106 yarns in the body, before pouring in wind essence to temper them. At the advanced stage, one will be able to turn one's movement gossamer-like the wind and travel a thousand miles in an instant.
However, the slightly more troublesome part is that there are millions and millions of yarns in the body, and their locations are different for everyone.
Only by gradually trying to feel them would one be able to unblock the 106 yarns. I believe the so-called instructor will only be giving them some suggestions when the disciples are doing the sensing wrongly, and get them to restart the process, making him pretty much useless."
A brief observation was all Fenrir needed to understand the intricacies of the Gossamer Steps spiritual technique. Such terrifying comprehensive ability stupefied Ezra Zephyr a little, but then he remembered the calibre of Fenrir.
Ezra's white teeth gleamed as he asked with a smile, "Does that mean you will teach me how to knit the 106 yarns?"
Yarns are like threads, just like spiritual energy is directly connected with the qi core of a cultivator or mana pool of a sorcerer. However, a spiritual technique is not only linked with the core but also with the brain.
