C14 An Unexpected Surprise!

"Younger brother, what brings you to a place like this?"

"Bringing you here has already put my life at risk."

Xiong Yangze's back was soaked with sweat as he cautiously reminded Su Yi, whose eyes sparkled with a golden light.

He was genuinely concerned that Su Yi might act recklessly.

"Senior Brother Xiong, do you have any more Bone Forging Pills?"

"There should be plenty left in the sect's storeroom."

Bone Forging Pills aren't considered a high-grade pill, so each sect stocks a good supply.

However, they need to be used in conjunction with Spirit Liquid to break through the Body Refining Stage.

So, even with an abundance of Bone Forging Pills, without the corresponding Spirit Liquid,

the chances of advancing to the Bone Forging Stage aren't guaranteed...

Su Yi couldn't be bothered with the odds; if his plan worked out,

the Body Refining Stage wouldn't pose any challenge.

"Then, I must ask you, Senior Brother, to fetch some for me from the storeroom."

"They're crucial for my plans!"

Xiong Yangze was full of questions, but he complied nonetheless.

After all, Faang Mu had instructed him to accommodate Su Yi's requests, provided he didn't step out of line.

Before departing, Xiong Yangze presented Su Yi with two Spirit Skills,

mentioning that they were techniques only Inner Sect Disciples were privileged to learn.

With that, he set off for the storeroom.

"Cultivation techniques, huh..."

He recalled that the Vajra Finger he had used was a Low Rank Spirit Skill.

He had yet to truly delve into any cultivation techniques.

Eagerly, he opened the two spiritual tomes Xiong Yangze had given him,

and the knowledge seamlessly integrated into his mind.

"The Low Rank Cultivation Method, Cloud Devouring Spell, can forge a Qi Sea, significantly enhancing the absorption of Spiritual Qi."

"And the Movement Spirit Skill, Grand Void Step..."

"Grand Void Step?"

Su Yi chuckled ruefully. If he mastered the Grand Void Step, wouldn't he become ethereal?

The thought alone was unsettling.

Yet, the Grand Void Step seemed quite impressive.

Mastering it to perfection, one could move in an illusory manner, becoming elusive and uncatchable.

"Not too shabby, I'm actually in need of a Movement Spirit Skill."

"The Cloud Devouring Spell, though? Just the name is a turn-off. I'll pass."

Having stowed the Cloud Devouring Spell, the system piped up with a prompt.

[Movement Spirit Skill detected. Initiate devouring process?]

"Devour."

With that command, the spiritual tome inscribed with the Grand Void Step was consumed into Su Yi's being.

The process might have looked bizarre, but the results spoke for themselves.

"Acquired Movement Spirit Skill: Grand Void Step (Proficiency 0/100...)"

"Would you like to upgrade it to Super Rank?"

The system posed a timely question.

The transformation of spirit medicines had already proven to be formidable, so what wonders could transforming a Spirit Skill unleash?

Mulling over this, Su Yi excitedly rubbed his hands together.

"Upgrade."

"Weng."

A dull thud resonated, and a vivid red glow materialized before Su Yi.

Reaching into the light, he was greeted with the knowledge of an advanced Super Rank Movement Spirit Skill.

"Super Rank Movement Spirit Skill: Grand Void Divine Step..."

"The Divine Step is activated by the user's intent. With just a thought, one can materialize anywhere..."

"At its peak, the practitioner moves like a phantom, invisible to the human eye."

"Yet, its training method is rather unique, requiring the absorption of Grand Void Qi for practice."

"Grand Void Qi?"

"And can it truly move at the whim of one's thoughts?"

Skeptical, Su Yi allowed his mind to wander to a location.

Seconds later, his form vanished without a trace...

And in a distant room...
