Legend of the Heavenly Fruit
Eps. 115 — Dragon Light Technique
"This will be the greatest gathering of warriors I have seen in my entire life..." Zhou Yuan returned to his room after watching Chu Guyu's entourage come to the palace.
There were already three high-level warriors that Jiang Qisha had managed to gather, seeing them willing to attend this meeting showed that the black pill case was really taken seriously by the government.
Zhou Yuan sighed, he felt the future in the present era would not be much different from his first life, covered in a lot of chaos and evil.
It is only a matter of time that the two camps between the government and the criminal organizations reach the height of the conflict - a war.
It does not rule out the possibility of a major battle when the heavenly fruit reappears.
'There's no point thinking about the future, all I have to do now is keep practicing to become stronger...' Zhou Yuan shook his head with a long sigh, considering that the future does always make one worry unnecessarily.
Zhou Yuan opened his Sky King Book which he had taken on this journey, after feeling that he had mastered the Golden Dragon Scales technique Zhou Yuan was thinking of learning another technique in the book.
The next night Zhou Yuan discovered a technique that caught his attention: a skill called the Light Dragon Technique.
This technique is a technique that can manipulate the light around it until it becomes lost. More specifically, the technique can absorb the light around it and make it so pitch dark.
"This technique is interesting, very useful in combat to reduce the distance of the opponent's view..." For the umpteenth time Zhou Yuan was amazed at the book.
Not only can it absorb the surrounding light, but the technique can take light in the retina of his opponent's eye so that he will be blind for some time.
Without waiting any longer Zhou Yuan directly practiced the Light Dragon Technique following the instructions written by the book.
It took Zhou Yuan 3 hours to practice and be able to use it, he absorbed the entire light in his room for 2 seconds until it became pitch black.
"It's..." Zhou Yuan was shocked when he found out the power of the Light Dragon Technique directly.
Zhou Yuan initially thought the technique had the same effect on the user: they could not see anything in the dark, but Zhou Yuan found it unexpected.
Even though Zhou Yuan had removed all the light in his room, as a user of the technique in fact he could still see clearly in the dark even his sense of sight became more sharpened.
Zhou Yuan became excited and enthusiastic, he went back to practicing the technique even deeper in order to maximize his strength. After almost two days had passed, he was able to master the technique to a certain degree.
Zhou Yuan found that the longer he deepened the skill of the Dragon of Light Technique, the wider the range of light he absorbed and the longer he used it.
Although he had not mastered it completely, Zhou Yuan could absorb the light around him for 10 meters for 8 seconds.
He could hear the maids guarding his door panicking when their vision suddenly darkened. Fortunately it was night time so they did not put their suspicions deeper into the strange phenomenon.
Zhou Yuan got up from sitting in his sila after being in the room for a long time, he actually wanted to train even longer but felt uneasy while continuing in the room for these two days.
On the other hand Zhou Yuan did not find Jiang Yifei knocking on his room, usually the girl always came every day to ask for a match with him.
Zhou Yuan thought the girl was still embarrassed to meet him after the incident of sleeping on his shoulder a few days ago. Just as Zhou Yuan was thinking that, his bedroom door was knocked from the outside.
"Ah, just now I think about it the girl has already appeared..." Zhou Yuan chuckled and walked over to the door.
Zhou Yuan could not possibly not have known him despite not having met for several years. The person was Xiao Fan, a swordsman who was dubbed as a red swordsman.
"Senior Xiao!" Zhou Yuan was startled before hurriedly saluting him.
"This child..."
Xiao Fan glanced at Zhou Yuan's body from the bottom to the top, not believing the little boy he had met for the past few years had turned into a dashing and handsome young man.
"Yuan'er, you've changed a lot now..." Xiao Fan smiled faintly.
Zhou Yuan scratched his cheek awkwardly, unable to comment anything regarding it, "Senior Xiao, is there something that made Senior come here?"
Zhou Yuan's question made the red-haired grandfather come to a realization. Xiao Fan coughed softly before saying that he wanted to discuss something important with Zhou Yuan.
"I heard from Bing that you're going to be sent here so that's why I left the clan to meet you..." Xiao Fan narrowed his eyes silently, trying to feel the strength of the young man yet he could not see Zhou Yuan's power level.
"So what does Senior want to talk to me about?"
"First we have to find a place first." Xiao Fan glanced at the two eunuchs guarding Zhou Yuan's room door.
Zhou Yuan nodded, then the two went to the palace garden while the eunuchs kept their distance from them. After arriving, Xiao Fan immediately spoke at the core of his conversation.
"Yuan'er, I heard from Rou'er that you were the one who hunted him to learn the Water Sword Technique?"
Zhou Yuan was surprised, he did not expect Xiao Fan to talk about it plus he did not expect Xiao Rou would tell his Grandfather his secret.
"Senior Xiao, that's..." Zhou Yuan had trouble answering.
Xiao Fan sighed as Zhou Yuan's expression answered everything. He did not expect his grandson's statement to be true.
"You don't need to panic, I'm not angry that you learned the sword technique from the Xiao Clan, since the beginning of the technique it was indeed opened in general because very few had mastered it." Xiao Fan scratched his head. "While I must admit, I didn't expect you to be able to do it and master it at such a young age."
Zhou Yuan did not know when Xiao Rou returned to his clan, the girl made Xiao Fan surprised because of Xiao Rou's rapidly increasing sword arts development.
Although Xiao Rou was considered to have comprehended the Water Sword Technique, Xiao Fan knew to what extent his grandson's ability in swordplay was.
According to him, Xiao Rou's development was too out of the ordinary to practice alone so Xiao Fan suspected that someone had taught him secretly.
Xiao Rou was reluctant to tell Xiao Fan at first, but after being persuaded for a long time, she admitted that Zhou Yuan taught her swordsmanship.
"So you did teach Rou'er, Yuan'er?"
Zhou Yuan nodded, he could not defend or lie because all the evidence was clear.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Fan did not ask about how Zhou Yuan could learn the Water Sword Technique. Xiao Fan was actually inviting him to compete.
