I Fabricated the Techniques, but my disciple really mastered them?

If Taicang's power had been vastly inferior, there would have been no ability to send anyone out of the battlefield.

"Back then, Taicang was only half a step away from the breakthrough to Master of Domain. Perhaps in the last moment, he gave his all and took that step, which gave him the ability to do so."

"Though the Unchanging Divine Master is powerful, I only acknowledge Taicang. It's just that time was not on our side, otherwise, the outcome would have been uncertain."

Netherworld sighed and turned to disappear in an instant.

"Taicang is indeed remarkable; no wonder the master said that Taicang was a very talented young friend."

Xu Yan muttered to himself, even his master praised him, which showed Taicang's gifted talent.

The Witch may still be alive, but it was unknown where. Naturally, Xu Yan would not deliberately search for him, especially in the vast Land of Imperishable, where to even begin looking?

"Yu Ting, interesting!"

Xu Yan looked at Ming Yu and noticed the revolving silver-white light in her eyes was slowing down, which meant she was starting to recover.

He took out the Flying Boat, placed Ming Yu upon it, and examined the map given by Netherworld, while the Flying Boat continued to follow the direction Ming Yu was heading.

Having reviewed the map from Netherworld, Xu Yan temporarily had no intention to explore and instead turned to Ming Yu, whose eyes no longer had the circling light.

But her pupils had not yet returned to pitch black; she was still in a crashed state.

"People from Yu Ting are truly strange. It's just that I don't know if my guess is correct or not."

Xu Yan looked at Ming Yu thoughtfully.

"Divine Soul? That feels somewhat familiar to me."

Ming Yu blinked and tilted her head slightly, lost in thought.

"The Divine Soul, where consciousness resides, if the Divine Soul perishes, the body is nothing more than an empty shell..."

Xu Yan explained the Divine Soul to Ming Yu.

"The Divine Soul perishes, the body is nothing more than an empty shell..."

Ming Yu echoed in a dull and clumsy manner, as if her thoughts were about to stall again; her pitch-dark pupils even began to turn white.

In a certain moment, as if she had thought of something, she brought up a question.

"What if the shell is gone, what about the Divine Soul?"

Xu Yan's smile was radiant as he said, "Miss Ming Yu, knowledge is precious. Although we are friends, this involves too profound knowledge; you can't freeload, you know!"

Ming Yu blinked, seemingly pondering the meaning of Xu Yan's words.

His slow and silly appearance made Xu Yan's mouth twitch slightly, but Ming Yu seemed to grasp the essence from his words.

"Freeload? I won't sell myself!"

Ming Yu shook her head, her expression resolute.

Xu Yan: ...

This level of comprehension, Xu Yan was baffled; after pondering for so long, she came to this conclusion?

Was this really what he meant?

But then again, Ming Yu's brain was not to be viewed normally; a misunderstanding was within reason.

"Miss Ming Yu, what I mean is that knowledge, especially that revolving around the Divine Soul, is precious and should not be gained for nothing; I don't mean you have to sell your body."

Xu Yan helplessly explained.

Ming Yu tilted her head, thinking for a while, "Then how can I acquire your knowledge?"

"It's simple, knowledge for knowledge; that's fair."

Xu Yan's smile was radiant.

"How do we exchange?"

"Just like exchanging formations for principles, only this time the knowledge we exchange is more extensive. Before that, I want to know where you come from, Miss Ming Yu. Is it the place I think it is?"

Ming Yu blinked, "Me? I come from Yu Ting."

"So you are indeed from Yu Ting. I've heard of Yu Ting long ago and know little about it; so let's exchange an introduction to Yu Ting for it, how about that?"

This was precisely Xu Yan's aim.

Ming Yu thought about it, and after a while, nodded, "Okay, I will introduce Yu Ting to you, and you explain to me what happens to the Divine Soul without a body."

"Deal!"

Xu Yan nodded.

"Miss Ming Yu, let me start the explanation, and after I have finished, you can introduce Yu Ting."

"Mhm!"

Ming Yu nodded her head, blinking her eyes, her face full of anticipation.

"When living beings are weak, though they also possess a Divine Soul, it's extremely frail and vague, and only by cultivating to a certain realm can one condense the Divine Soul, transforming the intangible into tangible..."

Xu Yan did not directly tell Ming Yu what would become of a Divine Soul that had lost its physical body.

Instead, he started from the beginning, explaining to Ming Yu about the knowledge of the Divine Soul, also to confirm a speculation.

"The martial arts one cultivates are different, and the Divine Souls they condense are also not the same. Generally speaking, when the Divine Soul is gathered, one must open the Divine Soul Sea of Consciousness. There are martial arts that open the Spirit Pedestal... The Divine Soul Sea of Consciousness is located within the mind."

Xu Yan raised his hand and pointed to his head.

Then, he saw Ming Yu blinking her eyes, and gradually, her pitch-black pupils disappeared, turning into a jade-white color, with rings of silver radiance spinning.

"Indeed, Ming Yu doesn't have a consciousness regarding the Divine Soul, but she vaguely feels something. Once it touches upon the Divine Soul, she gets somewhat overwhelmed, or rather, in her consciousness, the Divine Soul is too profound..."

Xu Yan saw Ming Yu's brain freeze again, and the speculation in his heart became more and more confirmed.

This time, Ming Yu's brain crash was shorter than the last, and after recovering, she tilted her head slightly, blinking and looking at Xu Yan in thought.

It seemed that she had forgotten some of the things Xu Yan said and hadn't remembered them.

"Miss Ming Yu, it's your turn to introduce Yu Ting."

Xu Yan said with a smile.

"But I don't remember much of the knowledge you talked about."

Ming Yu looked somewhat dejected.

"Profound knowledge is not something one can remember in one or two attempts. You just have to remember it more times. The more profound the knowledge, the greater its value, and naturally, the more effort it requires. Since we have already reached a knowledge exchange agreement, we can't just call it off because it's not remembered.

"If you introduce Yu Ting's knowledge and I don't remember it, I will still keep asking you to introduce it, and we will continue to exchange knowledge, until I remember it.

"You are the same, if you feel you need me to continue explaining, then let's continue exchanging knowledge until you remember it."

Xu Yan spoke earnestly.

Inside, he was secretly pleased. It was good that she couldn't remember because it meant that Ming Yu would have to bring out even more to exchange, allowing him to ask for more information about Yu Ting.

"That makes sense!"

Ming Yu nodded.

"What do you want to know about Yu Ting?"

After pondering for a while, Xu Yan spoke, "Although I have heard the name of Yu Ting, I know very little about it. Miss Ming Yu, where is Yu Ting located? What's your strength like in Yu Ting?"

Ming Yu tilted her head slightly, thinking, "Yu Ting doesn't have a fixed location; it's always wandering. Normally, there is a direction it wanders in, and it only changes direction after a certain period of time.

"I'm not strong in Yu Ting. If I were strong, I wouldn't need your escort."

Xu Yan immediately understood that similarly to the Imperishable Temple, Yu Ting also didn't have a fixed location, but was always roaming in the Land of Imperishable.

Ming Yu, with her Realm Master Level strength, wasn't considered strong in Yu Ting, which could be inferred from her tone that Realm Master Level strength was very common in Yu Ting, indicating the great strength of Yu Ting.

"It's my turn now."

After finishing, Ming Yu happily began to speak. Discover exclusive content at My Virtual Library Empire

Xu Yan gave a wry smile, at this moment Ming Yu unexpectedly became lively and clever.

"Shall I go over what I just said again?"

Ming Yu tilted her head slightly and then nodded, "Mhm!"

The slight tilt of her head always represented that Ming Yu was thinking, Xu Yan had already grasped some of her tendencies.

The disappearance of the pitch-black pupils and the emergence of jade-white color meant Ming Yu was either entering a state of battle, or she was in a state of deep thinking and sorting things out.

The presence of spinning silver-white radiance in her eyes meant that Ming Yu's thoughts had stuck.

Xu Yan repeated the explanation about the Divine Soul, and after Ming Yu listened, her pitch-black pupils disappeared, and the silver-white radiance began spinning, but this time for much shorter.

"It's your turn!"

Ming Yu, having recovered but looking a bit dejected, lifted her hand to scratch her hair, her expression sullen.

"Miss Ming Yu, what's wrong?"

For the first time, Xu Yan saw Ming Yu in such a state and couldn't help but curiously ask.

"I feel like I'm being slow."

Ming Yu looked discouraged.

Xu Yan's lips twitched; this was no longer a matter of being slow.

He smiled and comforted her, "Profound knowledge is always difficult to grasp; failing to remember and understand clearly even after one, two, three, four times, or even five or six attempts, is normal."
