Chapter 840: Talent Advances! Awe at the Summit! (Second release, asking for monthly tickets and subscriptions) Chapter 840: Talent Advances! Awe at the Summit! (Second release, asking for monthly tickets and subscriptions) I can’t understand… I really can’t understand…
Shang Wuji had never felt so troubled before.
It was like an ordinary student who had accidentally stumbled into the world of top students, watching two of them discussing world-class problems with fluent ease… while he himself was completely baffled.
This feeling was even more shameful than being humiliated in person.
Shang Wuji watched as Pei Jinye and Uncle Master Qi exchanged ideas about formations.
He felt that the only thing he could do at this moment was to find some tea sets from outside and moisten their throats.
Then he watched the two continue to speak… dazed.
“Little Shang, go, fetch some more water.”
Uncle Master Qi suddenly interrupted Shang Wuji’s reverie.
Shang Wuji couldn’t help but yawn and said with a wry smile, “Uncle Master, it is getting late, and the birthday celebration of the Valley Master is about to begin. I’m worried about missing the right time.”
The elder with the last name Qi paused, looking at Pei Jinye with some reluctance.
At that moment, Pei Jinye smiled and said, “If your sect does not mind, after today’s conference, I would like to stay for a few more days and disturb your hospitality.”
“Not at all, not at all; that would be very good,” the elder surnamed Qi immediately exclaimed with joy, “Let’s go, I’ll take you to the conference. Little Shang–”
Shang Wuji looked on with a bitter smile.
Having Pei Jinye stay within the sect… This was not in the original plan, but Uncle Master Qi had a special status in Misty Valley. Since the elder had spoken, naturally, it was settled.
“Uncle Master Qi, please give your orders.”
“I wish to be seated at the same table with Pei Dao-friend.”
“This… wouldn’t that be inappropriate?” Shang Wuji was almost on the verge of tears.
Don’t trap me alone, elder.
“What’s inappropriate about that? Pei Dao-friend is the most talented Array Master I’ve ever seen! Although he ranks just below me, he will definitely become one of the most powerful Array Masters in this world… It is our fortune that he has come to Misty Valley, a fortune, do you understand?” Uncle Master Qi said.
With that from Uncle Master Qi, Shang Wuji was left speechless.
He bowed with clasped hands to Uncle Master Qi and then to Pei Jinye, and went ahead to make arrangements.
…
Pei Jinye had not yet met the Valley Master of Misty Valley.
It wasn’t until the bells rang and the auspicious clouds appeared.
The elder in midair was dressed in an ancient style, with a cloud-shaped crown on his head, wearing a wide robe, a green belt around his waist, and lightweight shoes on his feet, riding the clouds and mist as effortlessly as a God Immortal.
He had an elegant appearance, free from the taint of vulgarity.
Long beard hanging to his chest, his smile gentle.
Making one feel exceedingly friendly.
“Welcome all to the grand meeting of Misty Valley…”
The voice of the Misty Valley Master boomed.
Firstly, he expressed his thanks, then after the banquet, he announced he would speak for half a day.
This Dao is the way to ascend to heaven.
When Pei Jinye looked at the elder, he found that he couldn’t see through him at all.
At the Ninth Rank?
No, if compared to the powerful ones in the Federation, probably even those at the Ninth Rank would not be opponents for this old gentleman.
Nowadays, the Federation has come to a common understanding.
Before the great catastrophe, there was the Ancient Martial Dao, but afterward, this inheritance was severed, which also made the Upper Third Realms of martial arts become a highly secretive matter.
Pei Jinye himself was also clear.
If it weren’t for Different World, he would not have stepped into the Upper Third Realms so quickly.
“Listening won’t hurt.” Uncle Master Qi said in a low voice to Pei Jinye, “My senior brother’s understanding of the Dao transcends common men; listening to him might be helpful to you.”
Pei Jinye gave a nod and a silent smile.
“After you listen, come find me; I reside within the garden,” Uncle Master Qi added enigmatically.
…
Once the banquet concluded,
They all gathered in front of the big hall.
Nearly a hundred disciples of Misty Valley were already seated on the ground, each on a Lotus Pad.
“A few Dao-friends, please take your seats.”
Shang Wuji led Pei Jinye and others to seats toward the front.
Uncle Master Qi did not come, but the other elders had arrived.
Still, none of these elders gave Pei Jinye the same impression as the Valley Master of Misty Valley.
As everyone took their seats,
General Divinity was deliberately arranged by Shang Wuji to sit at another end, to avoid conflict with Pei Jinye in front of the Valley Master.
Nevertheless, General Divinity still glared at Pei Jinye like a fierce wolf.
But Pei Jinye did not care in the slightest.
“This guy…” General Divinity clenched his fists in rage.
Someone beside him patted him, “Don’t be impulsive, Brother General Divinity, you’re no match for him.”
This made General Divinity even angrier.
At that moment, the Valley Master of Misty Valley called for silence.
A chill fell over everyone’s heart.
In the complete silence, the Valley Master of Misty Valley began to speak of the “Dao”.
“The Innate Dao lies in heaven, the Post-heaven Dao lies in man…”
Pei Jinye listened intently.
Although what the Valley Master of Misty Valley said was obscure, Pei Jinye could still grasp some of it.
A brain filled with abundant martial arts knowledge was akin to a human calculator, and his understanding ability was definitely stronger than others.
The disciples of Misty Valley behind him looked like CPUs that had burnt out.
Even strong practitioners like Cang Yunfei revealed expressions of bewilderment.
Especially General Divinity, who looked as if he had swallowed a fly… perhaps, in his view, the Valley Master of Misty Valley was deliberately making his words difficult to understand, so as to keep them in the dark.
As the talk went on, Pei Jinye’s expression gradually grew more solemn.
Even with his hundredfold martial arts talent, he began to find it difficult to comprehend.
It seemed that the old gentleman of Misty Valley had reached a level beyond what ordinary people could understand.
But there was no cause for alarm.
An idea sparked in Pei Jinye’s mind.
[Synthesis!]
On the attribute panel.
The accumulated Universal Extraordinary Gene Fragments began to synthesize [Body*Innate Martial Body].
[Proceed with advanced synthesis?]
[Yes.]
Pei Jinye felt a warmth spreading inside him.
The attribute panel had been updated.
[New Extraordinary Gene: Body*Innate Martial Body (Level 3)]
A hundredfold martial arts talent was just a Level 2 Extraordinary Gene, but it had already benefited Pei Jinye enormously.
Now that he had advanced to Level 3, he was very curious.
Just how powerful could this transcendence become!
[New Extraordinary Ability 1: 1000-fold Martial Arts Talent]
[Extraordinary Ability 2 Added: Integrative Understanding (Allows simple cross-category fusion on top of existing capabilities)]
[New Extraordinary Ability 3: Innate Martial Bone (Possession of the martial arts’ innate bone, born for martial arts, capable of continuous advancement)]
…
A thousandfold martial arts talent!!!
Pei Jinye’s eyes brightened a touch.
Although he had speculated that the martial arts talent at Level 3 would definitely increase, the actual increase was too substantial.
As for the second new extraordinary ability.
[Integrative Understanding]
Based on the information received, he could roughly confirm the minute difference.
If previously two Breaking the limit-level fist techniques could integrate,
At Level 3, a Breaking the limit-level fist technique could step beyond its category and blend with a Breaking the limit-level movement technique.
This was no longer a simple fusion.
Having cultivated to the Upper Third Realms, Pei Jinye’s practice in the martial arts had developed his own set of philosophies.
In his case, one plus one could already create a force greater than two.
If he could further integrate these cultivation techniques into one and optimize them,
he might even exert a power beyond three.
One should never underestimate such a small difference…
Pei Jinye’s three attribute points all had a base of at least seventy thousand, so even increasing by one percent equated to over seven hundred points.
And an average Extraordinary Fourth Rank’s attribute points wouldn’t even exceed four hundred…
The most surprising for Pei Jinye was probably the Innate Martial Bone.
It had a sense of shedding the old and assuming the new.
He had originally been of ordinary talent, and had gradually undergone “metamorphosis” through the Extraordinary Genes.
But this wasn’t true “metamorphosis”.
It was only now that Pei Jinye had truly undergone a metamorphosis.
It was in the very moment Pei Jinye completed his transformation,
that the Misty Valley Master, who was currently preaching from the high platform, glanced over, unbeknownst to the others.
It seemed as if he had confirmed something.
The Misty Valley Master’s pace of speech began to slow, allowing Pei Jinye more time to reflect.
Meanwhile,
his teachings grew increasingly more abstruse.
“Buzz!”
All of a sudden,
a bellowing Gang Wind dissipated.
Many elders and disciples who were listening to the sermon jolted, quickly came to their senses, and hurriedly dodged.
“What happened?”
“Why did a gale suddenly arise out of nowhere?”
Amidst the turmoil,
Shang Wuji was the first to notice something strange beside him.
He raised his head,
staring at Pei Jinye in astoundment.
The shock in his heart was beyond expression in words.
Pei Friend, has he…
attained enlightenment?
Did he really attain enlightenment?
Shang Wuji’s gaze was fixed, his hair on his forehead and his robe billowing in the fearsome gusts emanating from Pei Jinye.
In this moment, others too began to notice something unusual about Pei Jinye.
“Did he cause this wind?”
“What is he trying to do?”
Many were filled with disbelief.
Suddenly, a sardonic voice said, “He’s definitely doing it on purpose! This person has a venomous mind, deliberately creating such a scene just to prevent us from comprehending anything!”
People looked over.
The one who spoke was none other than the General Divinity, whose face Pei Jinye had recently stepped on.
Cang Yunfei gave him a glance and said solemnly: “Can’t you see? He is attaining enlightenment.”
“Attaining enlightenment?”
General Divinity’s expression changed.
Around them was a wave of exclamations.
“He can actually attain enlightenment?”
“Is this the legendary enlightenment?”
“He managed to attain enlightenment through the Valley Master’s teachings, yet we… didn’t understand anything at all, is this the difference between us and him?”
An elder spoke with a raw voice, looking at Pei Jinye’s back with a complex expression.
A complex look instantly appeared on the faces of others as well.
“Genius…”
“This is without a doubt a genius.”
“Exactly how many among us can understand the Valley Master’s Dao, and how many can truly attain enlightenment… I suppose everyone is clear on that, aren’t they?”
“How could he possibly attain enlightenment?” General Divinity found it hard to believe.
Cang Yunfei glanced at him once more, said nothing, moved a bit further away, and sat down to continue listening to the Misty Valley Master’s teachings.
Seeing this, others also settled down on the spot, not daring to delay any longer.
General Divinity was somewhat unwilling to accept this,
but since everyone had already sat down far from Pei Jinye, he naturally wouldn’t miss this chance to attempt enlightenment himself.

Yet the difference between individuals is often massive…
…
Pei Jinye remained single-mindedly in his state of enlightenment.
On the attribute panel,
the spiritual power column was skyrocketing rapidly.
