Chapter 7: Top Grade Spiritual Skill “Thunder Palm”

Experiencing a breakthrough in one’s cultivation always brought such a refreshing sensation. Even though it was just a minor step, Gu Liuyun already sensed a profound revitalization throughout his body.

With genuine gratitude, he opened his eyes, rose to his feet, and told Wu Simiao, “Thank you, Master, for imparting your teachings!”

[Ding! Your master Wu Simiao is in a good mood, favorability +50]

Wu Simiao, currently in a good mood, sat down with a smile and said, “By the way, you came to see me earlier to complete the sect’s entry task, right?”

Gu Liuyun, hearing this, smiled. He hadn’t submitted his entry task yet but had already taken Wu Simiao as his master. He nodded and presented the gathered purple leaf grass, saying, “These are the task items, Master.”

Wu Simiao glanced at the items and was somewhat puzzled, “The purple leaf grass task, are you related to one of the elders in the Divine Palace?”

Regardless of the world, there were always ways to use connections. Typically, these kinds of tasks were reserved for the descendants of certain elders in the sect, an unwritten tradition.

After understanding the situation, Wu Simiao was a bit perplexed, “It’s strange, that girl usually has a cold demeanor, yet she helped you like this…”

Gu Liuyun smiled and recounted the events leading up to his choice. Wu Simiao soon realized the situation.

“Oh, I see! It seems that Murong has had a change of heart.”

Gu Liuyun scratched his head and realized that this old man was quite an interesting character.

Wu Simiao handed a Qi-Gathering Pill and a token to Gu Liuyun, saying, “Take my token to the Hall of Kung Fu. The Transmission Elder will teach you the top-tier entry-level techniques for Dharma cultivation.”

Gu Liuyun was delighted that having a strong backer could elevate his entry-level techniques to top-tier. He thanked his master and headed to the Hall of Kung Fu.

Wu Simiao reminded him, “Hurry back, as I’ll need your assistance in alchemy later.”

“Understood!”

Gu Liuyun quickly learned the location of the Hall of Kung Fu and rushed over. Along the way, he encountered many other players struggling with their entry tasks, mainly mundane chores.

As the first player to complete the task and arrive at the Hall of Kung Fu, the Transmission Elder, upon seeing Wu Simiao’s token, promptly taught him a top-tier Dharma cultivation technique and a high-level spiritual combat skill.

[Ding! Obtained the Spiritual Sense Grant from the Transmission Elder, successfully acquired the top grade Heart Technique “Spirit Cultivation Sutra”!] [Ding! Obtained the Spiritual Sense Grant from the Transmission Elder, successfully acquired the top grade Spiritual Skill “Palm Lightning”!] [Ding! Congratulations on successfully stepping into the path of Dharma cultivation! Acquired spiritual resources +50!]

Gu Liuyun quickly consumed the Fortune Gathering Pill, breaking through to the middle stage of Fortune training in one go, increasing his acquired spiritual resources by +30. After expressing his gratitude to the Transmission Elder, he walked towards the Medicine Hall while reviewing the skill description of “Palm Lightning.”

“Palm Lightning”: Cooldown time of 10 seconds. Gathers spiritual energy to release a spiritual thunder from the palm, dealing 200 points of fixed Taoism damage to the target.

“Impressive! This high-grade entry-level spiritual skill delivers a hefty 200 points of divine damage. It’s more than enough for the second-tier forging body stage.”

In “Nine Realms,” martial arts were divided into four categories: mental techniques, spiritual skills/martial skills, body techniques, and  supernatural powers. Each category had upper, middle, and lower levels, tailored to different stages of cultivation.

The “Palm Thunder” Gu Liuyun acquired suits for Qi cultivation and body refinement. However, when he reaches the third-tier Crystallization stage, the damage might not suffice. At that point, he’ll need to switch to a skill suitable for the Crystallization stage.

The same principle applied to mental techniques and body techniques. As for supernatural powers, they could only be learned at the alchemy stage, which Gu Liuyun had not reached yet.

As he approached the Medicine Hall, he heard someone urgently shouting, “Make way, make way, quickly!”

Turning around, he saw two outer disciples rushing towards him while carrying an unconscious person, their faces filled with anxiety. Gu Liuyun promptly stepped aside to allow them entry.

“Senior Wu! Senior Wu! Hurry and help!” One of the disciples pleaded.

Wu Simiao emerged from the alchemy room, asking urgently, “What’s going on?”

With a hint of distress in their voice, one of the outer disciples explained, “A poisonous wyrm ambushed us in the Ten Thousand Mountains. Senior Mo got poisoned while protecting us, and his life is in danger. Elder Wu, please save him!”

Wu Simiao inquired, “Has the poisoning lasted for three days?”

The disciple quickly replied, “It’s only half an hour short of three days!”

Wu Simiao’s face changed instantly. He immediately sat down and began using his abilities to protect Senior Mo’s heart and slow the poison’s spread.

He then instructed a Medicine Hall disciple, “Hurry to the ice cellar and retrieve a sac gland from the Hundred Flowers Queen Bee. We must use it with the antidote powder to neutralize the wyrm’s poison.”

The disciple responded, “Elder Wu, we used up all the sac glands of the Hundred Flowers Queen Bee when preparing elixirs the other day, and they haven’t been restocked.”

Wu Simiao was frustrated and asked, “Why wasn’t it restocked from the Queen Bee in the back mountain?”

The disciple replied with a tearful face, “The inner sect disciples responsible for that task are currently on missions and haven’t returned. We outer sect disciples don’t have the ability to enter the back mountain.”

Wu Simiao couldn’t leave his task as he had to protect Senior Mo’s heart. The poison would soon attack the heart if not slowed down.

Gu Liuyun, realizing the urgency of the situation, offered to search for the Hundred Flowers Queen Bee’s traces in the back mountain. He assured them that if he found it, he would signal with the Palm Thunder technique, and they should inform the Transmission Elder.

Wu Simiao warned about the dangers of the back mountain but couldn’t stop Gu Liuyun. In the end, he yelled at another stunned disciple to inform the Transmission Elder of the situation.
