Despite this, Su Jing was still very curious about this spell. The ability to turn paper cutouts into evil spirits, door gods, and the like was intriguing. Though it may not be particularly powerful, its uniqueness could lead to useful applications if used well.
But upon closer inspection, Su Jing realized that he might not be able to learn the spell at this time. Despite its low level and minimal cultivation requirements, it still required True Qi to execute. Su Jing’s True Qi is too weak to be able to use the spell.
Su Jing had no choice but to put away the “Paper Cutting turns into Soldiers Scripture” and store it away. He was becoming more and more eager to find a formula to practice True Qi.
And as if his prayers have been answered, as he flipped through a few more pages, he picked up a book and saw a few large characters: “Profound Water True Technique.”
Seeing these words, Su Jing’s heart began to race as he realized that this might truly be a cultivation method.
Su Jing flipped through the book and read it carefully. The more he read, the more excited he became, and he could hardly contain his excitement.
As the name suggests, this is a cultivation method that focuses on the water attribute, the only difference in the name is one word from the “Black Water True Technique” practiced by the protagonist Jiao Fei, but the difference in power is like night and day.
The Black Water True Technique has been passed down from the Shenzong Demon Sect, and it is a powerful cultivation method that can control the flow of water in the world, manipulating snow, fog, frost, cloud steam, rain, and dew at will.
It also allows the user to merge with the power of real water, transforming into a black dragon and able to soar through the clouds and control thunder and electricity, make clouds and rain, call the wind, and summon waves.
It has infinite power and vast divine abilities, and it is considered almost as powerful as the ancient dragons.
On the other hand, the “Profound Water True Technique” is an obscure cultivation method that isn’t well known or popular in the Immortal Gourd Universe.
However, it is a legitimate method for practicing True Qi, unlike the Spring Leaf Secret Art, which is primarily used for healing. For Su Jing, it is a valuable treasure.
“I’ll look for it again, maybe there’s a more advanced practice method,” Su Jing thought to himself.
He was not unhappy with the Profound Water True Technique, but if there was a more advanced method, it would be beneficial to learn it. This would give him a higher starting point and greater abilities and potential in the future.
It was a pity that after searching through all the paper trash, he didn’t find any other practice formulas or valuable items. He had no choice but to give up, he went to the yard, sat by the pool, and began to try practicing the “Profound Water True Technique.”
Perhaps it was due to his practice of The Way of Silence that he quickly got absorbed in it and made progress. An hour later, he could feel the flow of air within his body, water mist filled his body, and the flowers and plants around him were covered with dew.
The grass under him was also wet. Another day passed in the blink of an eye, and the surrounding fog had spread to a radius of three meters.
At this point, he stopped and raised his right hand, a ball of water vapor suddenly appeared on his hand, which fluttered and rotated under his control. Su Jing did not use Spirit Reading Power but purely used the Profound Water True Technique.
He felt that the True Qi in his body had grown several times, and the improvement in just one day was more than what he had accomplished in the past several months. This is the advantage of using a real cultivation method.
“After only one day of practice, I have reached this state. Haha, I am a genius,” Su Jing was overjoyed. Jiao Fei took more than a month to practice the “Black Water True Technique” which is a hundred times more powerful before he could control a ball of water in his hands.
The fog that Jiao Fei could create is about the same as what Su Jing could create now, and by comparison, it seems that Su Jing is indeed a super genius. But he knew deep down that it wasn’t that he was a genius, but that he had a very good foundation.
Su Jing’s physical fitness and his state of mind for cultivation were already at a high level, thanks to the two years of accumulation. The Way of Silence, which he learned from Ancestor Subhuti in Journey to the West, was on par with the advanced meditation method in the Immortal Gourd Universe.
Before Jiao Fei practiced the Black Water True Technique, he was just a malnourished boy, and therefore, could not be compared with the current Su Jing.
As Su Jing stood up, the spiritual force shook and all the water mist on his clothes evaporated immediately. He was about to head back to the Garbage Station when his cell phone rang.
It was Zhou Xixian calling, so he answered it, “Old Zhou, you returned from the sea? I told you that there should be no other ruins on the seabed, you should give up and not waste your time.”
Since the ruins of Atlantis were discovered and Su Jing had pointed out the location on the map, many archaeological and sea salvage teams from around the world had gone to investigate. Su Jing was too lazy to pay attention to them, but Zhou Xixian and Ye Bo were still a little excited.
“No, we found something,” Zhou Xixian said.
“Wait… what?” Su Jing was dumbfounded. Did they really find something? Could it be that they had really found the ruins of Atlantis thanks to his made-up place? He thought to himself, If this is real that this is really a stroke of good luck, when did my luck become so strong?
“It appears that there are a few sunken ships and a significant amount of treasure. However, the specific details of what lies beneath the water are unclear as they are too deep, and it is uncertain if it is related to the ruins of Atlantis. The problem now is that after we discovered it, the Japanese team quickly arrived and began salvaging without regard for the situation. They moved quickly, their salvage skills were superior to ours, and they brought a large force. We were unable to stop them, so we have come back to ask for support. Mr. Su, with your connections, can you help us apply for financial and military support from the government? Time is of the essence, we must act quickly or we may lose our chance to claim anything.” Zhou Xixian spoke with increasing anger and frustration as he explained that they had been the first to discover the sunken ships, but the Japanese team had come in and taken what they found without any legal repercussions, as it was on the high seas and there was no protection in place and whoever got the treasures would be able to claim them.
