Chapter 53 Soul Link Art! (2 in 1)

Three-quarters of an hour later.

Lin Manshan carried a package and pushed open the door.

"Little brother Manshan, is it over?" Qin Ming had a smile on his face as he looked behind the door, "Where's Yan?"

"She said she wanted to wash up a bit, so I came out by myself first." Lin Manshan responded with a smile, but in his heart, he was grinning with an echo, 'What kind of places do you think all the needles were inserted later on. Transmitting soul power in those places is going to make her spend a lot of time in the bathroom now.'

It will feel a bit too good!

It's that kind of comfortable feeling of coolness, like a small stream flowing through the body

Having experienced the life energy from the Blue Silver Emperor's right leg bone reshaping his body before, Lin Manshan believed that he had a deep understanding of that feeling. Thinking in this manner, he glanced at Qin Ming with his spare glance, thinking that it took me nearly a quarter of an hour to recover from my vigorous state, and dare to come out to meet you.

As soon as he thought of the previous scene, he couldn't help but feel a little hot inside again, and feeling that his face was about to burn, he hurriedly raised his hand to get his attention.

"Teacher Qin Ming, since the treatment is over, I'll go back to my room first."

"Good, little brother Ah Man." Qin Ming's gaze skimmed the whites of Lin Manshan's slightly bloodshot eyes, as well as his forehead which was glistening with a hint of moisture, and he sighed in his mind that this entire healing process was indeed mind-consuming and exhausting, looking at how tired he had become, with cold sweats were breaking out here and there.

He hurriedly arched his hand, thanking from the bottom of his heart, "I have truly troubled you today!"

"No big trouble." Lin Manshan smiled and nodded, turning around and stomping to run away.

Little brother Manshan is really a good person. Qin Ming shook his head slightly and continued to guard the door, waiting for Dugu Yan to come out.

Because the Skywater Academy consisted solely of girls, the room that was booked for Lin Manshan was a single room. Returning to his room, Lin Manshan quickly threw down his package and rushed into the bathroom carrying the used silver needles and cleaning them. Afterwards, he used a wooden bucket to fetch the water and began to pour it over his body, cooling the fire down.

Redressing his clothes, he pushed the door of his room and walked towards Shui Yue'er and Shui Bing'er's room.

Tut tut tut, after a soft knock, the door of the room was quickly opened.

"Finished with the treatment?" Shui Yue'er's face revealed surprise as she pulled Lin Manshan into the room while keeping her head close to sniff.

"Well, I especially came to tell you about it and give you a gift in the process." Lin Manshan smiled.

"Mmm, it just so happens that Sister Bing'er and I also have something to give you." When saying this, a hint of scarlet bloomed on Shui Yue'er's delicate dimple, her expression carrying a hint of eagerness and anticipation, the force in her hands couldn't help but increase, pulling Lin Manshan to quickly come to the edge of the bed and make him sit down.

Shui Bing'er lowered her small head, moved her body and sat on the other side.

"Well, Ah Manshan, this is for you." Shui Yue'er spread out her palm, and a red rope embedded with gold filaments suddenly appeared in Lin Manshan's eyes, one side was knotted with a special weaving method for tying the knot, two teardrop-shaped dark sapphires were hanging on the other side, and eight small beads made of white jade were neatly arranged on both sides, "This is my family's ancestral collection, and it was originally two strings."

"I've just strung them together." Saying that she slightly lowered her small head and said in a whisper with a rosy blush.

"Ah Man, you must remember to come to Skywater City to look for me when the time comes."

"Well, definitely!" Lin Manshan nodded heavily and reached out to receive it.

But in the next second, Shui Yue'er's palm quickly retracted again, her small head tilted up, her eyes brimming with water, "Ah Man, I, I'm going to put it on you with my own hands." Saying that, she reached out and slightly loosened the knot of the rope, and pinched it up with the fingertips of both hands.

"Okay." Lin Manshan nodded and bowed down slightly.

Then Shui Bing'er approached with a flushed face and murmured in a tiny voice, "Ah Man, let me help you tie the rope tightly."

Saying that she reached out close to the back of Lin Manshan's neck and gently tied the red rope under Shui Yue'er's instructions.

Straightening up and touching the blue crystal in front of his collar, Lin Manshan unconsciously revealed a smile, then stood up straight, took a step back, turned his head, and softly said, "Bing'er, Yue'er you guys sit closer, I have a gift for you too."

"Oh." The two girls nodded obediently and moved their bodies closer together.

"Next, close your eyes, relax your mind and don't resist." Lin Manshan raised his hands and continued.

"???" The faces of the two women flushed red in a swish, but they still fluttered their eyelashes and closed their eyes.

Lin Manshan didn't delay, his fingertips quickly approached, respectively pointing at the two women's foreheads on the Yin Tang point (middle of the forehead), then he slowly closed his eyes, urging his soul power to cast the Dark One Art.

'Soul Link Art!'

In the next second, the scene changed, and a gentle voice called out, "Bing'er, Yue'er, you can open your eyes now."

Shui Bing'er and Shui Yue'er opened their eyes at the same time, then their beautiful eyes slightly widened, as they subconsciously leaned towards Lin Manshan's direction, looking around, with their faces filled with bewilderment and astonishment. The surrounding scene had completely changed, with lush trees scattered all around except for a reasonably spacious patch of grass field under their feet, There were bushes and overgrown vegetation everywhere, and judging by the scene, they were in some kind of small woodland.

"Ah Man, where is this?" Shui Yue'er couldn't help but ask, "How did we get here?"

"This is a scene from my memory." Lin Manshan nodded slightly and without much explanation, with a flash of his thought, a boy who looked just like him, albeit younger, suddenly appeared in front of them.

"Bing'er, Yue'er, look well. Next, you will see an image of a movement spirit skill that I practice regularly through my memories. As for the name, I named it Blinking Steps, which is based on the Blink of an Eye, which simply means that it is so fast that you will disappear in the blink of an eye, so you guys can also call it the Blink Movement Technique."

The Blinking Step was a footwork he created by fusing the Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track with the Vanishing Art as the core, and also combined it with the newly figured out knowledge of meridians and acupoints, which could be performed with spirit power instead of soul power. With a unique walking stride, coupled with the flow of spirit power through the leg meridians to strengthen speed. It also uses various acupoints to achieve the effect of instant acceleration during rapid evasive movement.

When practised to a high level, the effect of instant acceleration is almost second only to Vanishing Art. It belongs to the movement techniques that are simple to start but have a high ceiling and are difficult to master. After all, the basic principle is to use spirit power to stimulate acupoints to achieve instant acceleration, although the spirit power can also play an augmentation and protection effect on the physical body, it is not as outstanding as the effect of soul power, so the load on the leg muscles and meridians will be heavier.

Of course, both the meridians and the muscle roots and bones will slowly increase in strength with cultivation, it's just that the pace of strengthening is slower. In addition, absorbing spirit rings could also strengthen them significantly, so all in all, this is a movement technique where the higher the strength, the more prominent the effect will be.

Honestly speaking, he was able to create this movement technique thanks to the Blue Silver Emperor's right leg bone.

It wasn't like creating an internal martial skill like Mysterious Heaven Skill, where spirit power needed to run through the meridians of the entire body.

Trying to change the spirit power running route in a small area in the leg, the danger factor was obviously much smaller.

I have to say, Tang San, your mother's spirit bone is really good. Lin Manshan said his thanks inwardly.

In addition, there was also a big thanks to Tang Hao!

After all, if he hadn't brought Ah Yin to play around back then, Ah Yin wouldn't have needed to sacrifice her spirit ring and drop her spirit bone.

With this thought, his thought moved, and the boy 'Lin Manshan' in front of him ran at once.

"Amazing!" Shui Yue'er let out a cry of amazement, then watched carefully with Shui Bing'er.

After watching it once, Lin Manshan began to act as a narrator on the side, carefully explaining the principles in conjunction with the knowledge of meridians and acupoints until the two of them thoroughly understood.

After an unknown amount of time, Lin Manshan withdrew the Soul Link Art, and the three of them slowly opened their eyes.

"Ah Man, you're truly great."

Shui Yue'er pounced on Lin Manshan with a look of excitement, holding his waist and swaying him vigorously, her little head tilted slightly, her pretty face was rosy and lustrous as if one could pinch out drops of water. Her eyes were bright and shiny, and filled with admiration.

As an Agility Attack System Spirit Master, this spirit skill taught by Lin Manshan undoubtedly boosted her strength immensely.

"Ah Manshan, thank...thank you."

Shui Bing'er, who was unable to hide her face, expressed her inner unrest through her reddening cheeks.

"It is something I ought to give, consider it as a return gift." Lin Manshan smiled, then added in a joking tone.

"It's fine to take it as a bride price."

The bride price. The girl's pretty face instantly reddened like a small tomato, and she lowered her head and remained quiet.

It was a pity, the Blinking Steps were still too much worse compared to the Vanishing Art of the Dark Ones. When Vanishing Art is practiced to a very high level it is truly instantaneous, and it consumes very little and has no side effects on the body. Lin Manshan looked down at Shui Yue'er who had her head buried in his bosom, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, 'The Dark Ones' Art needs to be driven by Soul Power, and Soul Power needs to be gained through the igniting soul, and it simply can't be taught.'

Soul power is the unique innate ability of the Dark Ones, it is not a skill or a secret technique, so an outsider can't possibly learn it, and can only rely on enlightenment. The Dark Ones, because of their long life in the Hell Realm, coupled with their special physique, were born to be able to sense their own souls. And humans, as above-ground creatures, wanting to sense their own soul and then comprehend the Way of the Igniting Soul is just too difficult, simply close to impossible.

The simplest known and effective way is to die once, so that the soul is separated from the physical body, to personally see the existence of their own soul.

In the original novel, Bai Cai, a human was only able to learn it because she had died once and had her soul retrieved from hell with the help of 'Act Against the Sky', and was saved from death.

I can't use the Soul Detaining Technique with my current strength. Even if I can detain it, I don't know if I can stuff it back. In addition, I'm not sure if there's a hell realm in the Douluo Continent, so if the soul directly dissipates, it'll be a big trouble. Lin Manshan secretly pondered, 'Well when my soul power is stronger, and I can ensure that a soul is condensed not dissipated, then I can try to use the Soul Ferrying Technique first.'

'At that time, if I try it myself, I'll know if there's a hell realm in this world.'

As for now, since we can't teach soul power for the time being, it's better to play it safe. First follow the plan to weed out the Mysterious Heaven Treasure Record from Tang San, and improve the technique as much as I can, so that it can be taught to those who are close to me to improve their strength. Thinking of this, Lin Manshan inwardly a little determined, reached out to pat the younger sister's shoulder, ''Well, Yue'er. It's getting late, you guys should rest early. I should also go back."

"Oh." Shui Yue'er answered, then raised her head with a hopeful look on her face and used a negotiating tone.

"Ah Man, is it really going to take two or three years before you can come to Skywater City to look for us? Can't it be sooner?"

"Yue'er, I can only tell you that there's something I need to do and others can't help much with it." Lin Manshan's face held a smile, his previous refusal of Dugu Yan to let Dugu Bo come to him was also for the same reason, if she let Dugu Bo run over and accidentally discover Xiao Wu's existence, Tang Hao might just kill him, and if he got involved in it, he might even lose his life, the risk was just too great.

Looking at the younger girl's face which gradually turned to worry, Lin Manshan hurriedly continued, "Don't worry, this thing I want to do doesn't have any danger, but the reward is quite rich, and it will also help your later cultivation greatly, the only problem is that I have to spend a bit of time in it, which is something I can't possibly solve quickly."

After saying that, he looked at Shui Bing'er who stood up from the bed because of her worry, and gave a warm smile, "You guys will just have to wait at your home at ease for me to go over."

"Is it really not dangerous?" Shui Yue'er was a bit unconvinced.

"Do I look like a fool who wants to die?" Lin Manshan nodded slightly and said in a serious manner, "Besides, I am the only surviving member of the Lin family, so how can I..."

The more Shui Yue'er listened, the more her pretty face turned scarlet, and she rubbed up against his arms, "Geez, what are you talking about?"

Feeling the warm temperature in his arms, Lin Manshan's heart fluttered, and he suddenly thought of the two classic emoticon packets that were often used by the numerous novel nerds in an exchange group in his previous life.

JPG: Only child would consider. I want them all!

JPG: If I am also a child, the FBI can't arrest me.

He couldn't help but look up at Shui Bing'er.

"Bing'er."

"." Shui Bing'er flushed bright red and lowered her head, wringing her small hands as her small waist twisted as she approached.

"Wait for me!" Lin Manshan's tone was soft.

"Hmm." The two of them responded softly, and when they raised their heads again, only Lin Manshan's athletic back was visible, as well as a soft call as he waved his hand backwards, "I am leaving! Good night."

***

Returning to his room, Lin Manshan climbed straight into his bed and cultivated with his knees crossed.

Not long after, Tuk Tuk Tuk, a clear knocking sound came.

Lin Manshan slowly opened his eyes, took small steps to the door, and with a creak, his eyes filled with the graceful Dugu Yan.

The same teaching process, the same responding words, a quarter of an hour later, the young girl went out the door with a sweeter look on her face.

Today is another beautiful day. Lin Manshan slept contentedly.

The next day, after some reluctant goodbyes, he refused the storage spirit tool presented by the girls on the way.

Mounting the big yellow horse that Dugu Yan had bought with her money, Lin Manshan gradually drifted away.

Retracting her gaze, Dugu Yan turned her head to look at the two sisters, "Sister Bing'er, Sister Yue'er, we are heading along the same way, why don't we travel together?"

"???" The men of the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy were stunned, when did Yan become so proactive and friendly?

Sister Bing'er, Sister Yue'er. The faces of the three instructors of Skywater Academy instantly had a meaningful look, by virtue of their experience and their sixth sense as women, they felt that this matter must not be simple.

"Alright." Shui Bing'er nodded.

Thus, Dugu Yan pulled Ye Lingling, the only female teammate in the team, onto the Skywater Academy's carriage.
