Chapter 521: [Qian Kun Limitless Seal] – [Life Death Star Seal]

It was really strange. Qian Jin didn"t understand it. "I was only battling, but why do I feel like I have found the way to merge the two techniques?" He thought.
That"s right! Qian Jin somehow managed to realize how [Avatar] and the [Fake Soul] was similar and different in battle. He discovered where they could be merged and where work was needed to resolve the repulsion, and he identified which parts of the techniques needed to be discarded to remove the negative effects.
The stuff that he thought about but never actually came to a conclusion on suddenly solved themselves in his head. As Qian Jin started to understand one part of the puzzle, he gradually began to understand the other parts as well.
Qian Jin lied in the ruined building as he tried many arrangement patterns in his head. He went through numerous attempts of trial-and-error.
Slowly, a new set of warrior power arrangement patterns appeared in his head.
"You finished? If you didn"t, then you can only figure it out after a few years." Enlak suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Qian Jin who was lying in the ruins. "If you really can"t get it, I might have to tell you," he said.
Qian Jin propped himself off of the ground and stood up. After he dusted off the dirt off of his body, he bowed at Enlak and thanked him.
At this moment, Qian Jin understood what Enlak said. "The things you learn will never be as memorable and meaningful as the ones that you create yourself."
What Qian Jin went through wasn"t just meaningful. It opened a gate for Qian Jin, a gate that led to numerous fighting techniques. With this experience, Qian Jin had a completely new understanding of fighting techniques and even warrior power.
Although it was still vague, Qian Jin was sure that such gate was opened.
It was vague. Qian Jin couldn"t even describe what he was experiencing or what it felt like. But this feeling... was fantastic! Qian Jin felt like was had been walking in the dark for a long time, and he just suddenly saw an unprecedented light. Although the light was still far away and there was fog in between him and the light, it was still amazing and eye-opening.
"Your foundation... isn"t that good." Enlak said as he looked at Qian Jin, "Many warriors would be taught by great teachers when they were young. As the warriors get older, this knowledge and acc.u.mulation could start to show their effects. The more acc.u.mulation and better foundation one had, the more potential he or she would have."
Qian Jin nodded. The reason why the warriors from Fanta Family were always at the top of ordinary warriors was because of this. Every descendant of Fanta Family would start training at a young age and the acc.u.mulation would start when they were young.
However, the Bloodline Warriors didn"t need to go through that ha.s.sle. With the bloodline power was in their blood, as long as they could awaken it, they didn"t need any kind of acc.u.mulation. As a result, most of the Bloodline Families taught more about other subjects of study such as map reading and legion commanding.
Qian Jin was from the Qian Family and he received the second kind of training. He didn"t have much acc.u.mulation as a warrior.
"Your acc.u.mulation is low, but..." Enlak continued. "But you are devouring fast. Anything you consume would become your own in a short time. This would make up for the low acc.u.mulation you have to a certain degree. That is not enough! You need a new kind of development, and that is the one I am..."
Qian Jin carefully listened to Enlak"s words. The instructions from this top-tier level teacher couldn"t be bought with money.
"Alright, tell me the arrangement pattern that you came up with." Enlak smiled as he pa.s.sed a sheet of paper and a pen to Qian Jin. "Write it down here, let me see."
Qian Jin grabbed the pen and paper. After some thought, he wrote all of the stuff in his head onto the paper earnestly. The process took more than two hours. To completely ill.u.s.trate this new fighting technique wasn"t easy. In fact, it might be harder than training in the actual technique.
As Enlak read the stuff that Qian Jin wrote, he would sometimes laugh, he would sometimes frown, and he would sometimes shake his head. As he did that, he wrote notes on the side.
After a few minutes, Enlak put down the pen and give the paper to Qian Jin. "You made a few mistakes," he said. "I adjusted them and explained why. If you applied that arrangement pattern, it would probably explode when you use the Warrior Seal. The power in it will probably kill you before harming the enemy."
Qian Jin couldn"t do anything but to smile bitterly. It was hard enough for him come up with a possible arrangement pattern. It was his first time modifying techniques. More importantly....
The two techniques were all considered Divine Fighting Techniques. To completely merge the two techniques together... Qian Jin didn"t think that he was capable to successfully merging the two in one go. This experience was something that was important in his journey as a warrior.
"Anything else?"
"Ah?" Qian Jin nodded and said, "Another thing is just that [Kun] Fighting Technique should have another accompanying technique..."
"Really?" Enlak frowned as he thought about it for a while. "There should be two, right? One is the accompanying technique and the other one should be able to combine the two techniques together." Qian Jin was a little speechless. [Qian Kun Limitless Seal]! It was the Ultimate Fighting Technique of Qian Family! It was on the same level of as the [Life Death Life Seal] of the Unkillable King Bloodline Family!
"The value of these techniques..." Enlak looked at Qian Jin and said, "You probably can"t just defeat demons such as Flame Demon. You probably need to fight Supreme-level Demon Beasts."
Qian Jin was bitter. [Qian Kun Limitless Seal]! The most powerful technique that Qian Family had. If he could learn the a.s.sociated techniques when he had to fight Qian warriors in the future...
"It feels like you have a lot of interesting techniques that I haven"t see before," Enlak said after some thought. "If you can bring me another set of techniques that are on the same level as this one, I can probably lower the difficulty of the challenge for you."
"Oh?" The bitterness Qian Jin was feeling dropped. Enlak saw a smile on Qian Jin"s face and thought, "Does this kid actually have another set?"
"I have this set of techniques – [Life Death Star Seals]. See if you think that these sets of techniques are comparable."
Qian Jin paused there, he started to write down the details about [Life Death Star Seals] on a sheet of paper. According to Enlak"s words, Qian Jin didn"t need to write everything down. This powerful teacher would understand the technique by looking at the rough outlines.
"Life..." Enlak"s eyes shone as he nodded. He looked at the stuff that Qian Jin was writing down and said, "Another technique that requires a special bloodline."
"d.a.m.n critical!" Qian Jin praised Enlak"s ability in his mind. He only wrote down a little portion of the technique, but Enlak already knew who this set of techniques was for. The Bloodline Technique of the Unkillable King Bloodline could only be used by Bhang Family warriors.
"Not bad." Enlak nodded. "These two sets of techniques gave me some inspirations. They are on the same level and they are much more interesting than the two dumb techniques you showed me earlier."
Qian Jin curled his lips. He was wondering if Qian Zhanxuan or the leader of Bhang Family would be infuriated if they knew that the Ultimate Techniques of their bloodlines were compared to techniques like Fake Soul.
"This [Life Death Star Seal] is worthy enough." Enlak said to Qian Jin, "You only need to go and kill a Rat King."
Rat King... Qian Jin was having a headache. Although the Rat King wasn"t a Supreme-level Demon Beast, it was still one of the strongest High-level Demon Beast.
Many people would think that it was weak after hearing its name. "How strong can a rat be?"
However, Qian Jin knew clearly that Rat Kings were Demon Beasts who were like Warrior Mage Dual Trainers. They had a lot of physical power, and they mastered all four-elemental magics – Wind, Water, Fire, and Earth!
To put it in simple terms, a Rat King was like the combination of Flame Demon, Wind Demon, Earth Demon, and Water Demon! Although it still looked like a rat, it was bigger than a normal human.
"Ok. If you have nothing to do now, you can go and kill that little Flame Demon or little Rat King."
"Little Flame Demon or little Rat King?" Qian Jin felt weak. "In your eyes, they are like nothing. But in my eyes, they could easily kill me!" he thought.
As Qian Jin walked on the street, he saw the Mystic Potion Shop that belonged to one of his masters, Eulalia. Without turning away, he dashed into it.
"Yo, you here already?" Eulalia didn"t even look up. "Go and drink those potions."
"Huh? This docile today?" Eulalia was surprised as she saw Qian Jin who was chugging down the potions. In her mind, there was never a time when Qian Jin was so obedient.
"Ah!" Qian Jin shouted. Sweat appeared on his forehead as he tried his best to concentrate on the testing tools in front of him. He had to endure the pain in his body as he continued with the Mystic Pharmacist training.
Eulalia stopped her own experiment as she looked at Qian Jin. "There is more drive in this young man"s body. It feels like he is willing to work hard on anything. Interesting..." she thought.
...
Flame Demons had their own weaknesses. Although this weakness was hard to target, it didn"t mean it was invincible.
Qian Jin had encountered Flame Demons many times in the Endless World. However, he would be killed fast every time before he could put up a fight. But as he watched more of the Flame Demon"s fights with other Demon Beasts, Qian Jin figured out the weakness of the Flame Demon.
All Demon Beasts had weaknesses just like humans and demons. Also, the Demon Beasts" weaknesses were more standard.
When fighting against Demon Beasts with strange forms, Mystic Potions were the most effective.
However, rarely did human and demon warriors study Mystic Pharmaceuticals and it was hard for them to discover the weakness of Demon Beasts like Flame Demon.
Flame Demon... Qian Jin frowned and thought, "Everyone knows that the Flame Demon is afraid of water and ice... but it almost impossible to get through its protective fire s.h.i.+eld."
