“This…this…this trick is only known to the two of us. As long as no one else can get the Six Ren Divine Dice and solve it, then no one will know about it, right?” Jiang Yuyan was clearly still very eager to learn.

　　”You’re overthinking it. If someone knowledgeable sees your moves, they’ll quickly find a weakness, just like the Golden Bell Shield has a weakness. Most of these absorption techniques have weaknesses; you just need to test to find out where they are, but they definitely exist. Besides, I don’t really recommend you cultivate this. It’s meaningless. If you just want to dominate this realm, you can learn it, but if you really intend to ascend to the upper realm and have a broader future, don’t touch this kind of technique. It will ruin your foundation and cultivation.”

　　This wasn’t the first time Zhang Weihao had given such advice. He had previously advised the greedy Jiang Yuyan against practicing martial arts indiscriminately, saying that one shouldn’t bite off more than one can chew, and that some techniques are inherently contradictory. Practicing more wouldn’t necessarily make one stronger; on the contrary, it might lead to qi deviation and ruin one’s own life.

　　”It’s not that bad, is it? This is only for people who practice the Mingyu Gong.”

　　”You’re already at the eighth level, who else can you absorb? Absorbing those weaker than you will only lower the quality of your true qi. It’s meaningless except for increasing your power a little. Absorbing your master’s and second master’s qi, unless you can control them and ensure they don’t resist, you’ll most likely be killed. Power level doesn’t represent strength.”

　　As for researching methods to absorb other people’s energy, let’s not talk about the others. I’ll just use this Palm Lightning move. Do you dare to absorb it?” After saying that, Zhang Weihao directly gathered lightning in his right palm and began to use lightning magic.

　　Because it is Fugaku Uchiha’s Mangekyou Sharingan, Zhang Weihao’s attributes are similar to Sasuke’s. He has both fire and lightning attributes, as well as the Yin Shield unique to the Uchiha, or rather, Mangekyou bloodline. In addition, Zhang Weihao has a demigod body and pure Yang attribute, so he has four attributes: Yin Yang, lightning, and fire.

　　He can also use other sage techniques and ninjutsu, but their power is incomparable to his main attribute. His inherent attribute can be used in environments where it is advantageous, and it can even overturn the normal five elements’ generating and restraining relationships.

　　Without any inherent attributes, it can only be used by taking advantage of the environment and terrain, and its power is not very strong. Rather than relying on its own abilities, it is more like borrowing the power of nature.

　　Because he possesses both thunder and fire spiritual roots in this life, Zhang Weihao is adept at using the thunder magic of the Celestial Master’s Mansion. He can easily gather thunder in his palm and unleash the Thousand Birds Technique, and he can also use the most traditional palm thunder.

　　”This…this is lightning…”

　　”That’s right. I said I have spiritual roots. My spiritual roots are fire and lightning, both innate spiritual roots. So I know lightning magic. I can directly control lightning and also make my true energy contain lightning or flames. Would you dare to absorb such true energy?”

　　Seeing the blue-white lightning that was constantly colliding and making a “sizzling” sound as it gathered in Zhang Weihai’s palm, Jiang Yuyan felt a sense of fear in her heart. It was hard to imagine how terrible it would be if such internal energy were absorbed into the body. No wonder he had always looked down on these energy-absorbing techniques and even despised them to the core.

　　”Hmph, I’m not like you. I’d be scared if I encountered that situation. But if you say I won’t learn it, then I won’t. By the way, can I learn this? It looks really impressive.”

　　”Perhaps you can learn it when you reach the level of a Grandmaster of the Innate Realm. Otherwise, you won’t be able to learn it, since you don’t have spiritual roots.” In fact, Zhang Weihao didn’t know how to tell if someone had spiritual roots, nor did he have any tools to identify them, so only he had them, and everyone else didn’t.

　　If I say you have it, you have it; if I say you don’t, you don’t. The exclusive right of interpretation is mine—that’s how arrogant I am.

　　Jiang Yuyan genuinely believed it. There was nothing she could do; only Zhang Weihao understood this, and he had the exclusive right to interpret it. Others who disagreed couldn’t do anything about it.

　　According to Zhang Weihao’s explanation, the Grandmaster of the Primordial Realm has successfully entered the Dao and can communicate with Heaven and Earth, so he can draw upon the power of Heaven and Earth and nature.

　　For example, the Palm Lightning technique can be achieved by some Grandmasters who have cultivated corresponding skills, because it borrows lightning from the sky and can be used to control lightning under certain environmental and climatic conditions.

　　Spiritual roots are innate; once you reach a certain level, you can use them directly regardless of the environment. When you encounter a suitable environment, you can even turn it into your own domain, and even a Grandmaster of the Innate Realm would have to kneel before you.

　　Lightning is considered an unorthodox spiritual root due to its demanding formation conditions, making it unstable. However, it is widely recognized as having the most devastating damage output.

　　Flame is one of the five elements and the most common spiritual root. To enhance its power, besides the Mangekyou Sharingan, you can set fire to your surroundings, especially in the deep mountains and forests. No matter what kind of grandmaster you are, even if you are at the Celestial Phenomenon Realm, you can only run away with your bucket.

　　This is the terrifying power of spiritual roots. In the right environment, it’s almost like having a cheat code, but the prerequisite is that Zhang Weihai can communicate with heaven and earth, grasp the authority of the world, and cultivate the immortal mode of this world.

　　I’ve mastered a little bit of it, and can use some ninjutsu that isn’t very powerful, or perhaps “sage art” would be a more appropriate term.

　　After all, Zhang Weihao uses the power of nature, not chakra. Chakra doesn’t exist in this world either; he can only cultivate Sage Mode, which is his biggest limitation.

　　Simply put, it means going to different worlds. Unless that world has chakra, one must attain enlightenment and unlock world access, cultivate to conform to the sage mode of that world, and then be able to smoothly unleash those powerful sage techniques and become a true god in that world.

　　However, due to differences in world levels and the laws of Heaven, the proportion and requirements for authority also differ.

　　As a beginner’s village, Mingzong World is obviously not high-level, and Zhang Weihao felt that as a master of innate grandmaster, he should be able to do whatever he wanted here.

　　”Can you give me a slap?”

　　”Will you get hit?”

　　”Hit me? How could you be so heartless? I’ve been so good to you. You said you wanted the Six Ren Divine Dice, and I immediately traveled all the way to Jiangnan to trick you into giving it to me. I even had a father figured out. Do you know how awful my scumbag father is?” Jiang Yuyan said pitifully with a sorrowful expression, her tears welling up instantly. Her acting skills were exceptional.

　　Zhang Weihao would swear to God that if this woman could solve it herself, she would never have given it to him; she’s got a lot of ulterior motives.

　　”Its power is so-so, it can only pierce through a person directly. Someone like you, I can take down with one palm.”

　　”Then why do you say you’re not a Grandmaster? Can a Grandmaster really be more powerful than you?”

　　”I’ve already said that I’ve never encountered a grandmaster in this world, and I’m not sure because I haven’t fought with one. In our world, grandmasters have many more powerful methods than this, who knows?”
