Master Yanyu and Qiu Hong were very curious upon receiving the jade pendants from Ling Tian.
Following Ling Tian's instructions, they both placed the jade pendants on their foreheads and infused them with their true essence.
In the next moment, their bodies stiffened as they stood frozen on the spot. This was because a massive amount of information was being directly projected into their minds through the jade pendants!
By the time the information transfer was complete, the two women realized that the knowledge contained within was etched into their minds as clearly as if it were imprinted, impossible to forget.
It was akin to directly copying knowledge into one's brain with a photocopier; such a method of knowledge inheritance was simply inconceivable.
Master Yanyu was even confident that with about ten or eight such jade pendants, she could impart all the knowledge in her mind to others.
The knowledge Ling Tian had imparted this time was a profound cultivation technique, not merely a martial art, but also a cultivation method for immortality!
Cultivating with this technique, the growth of one's power could be described as rapid progress.
Master Yanyu believed that by practicing this technique, she would likely break through the bottleneck that she herself had been unable to overcome in just a few months.
For young people like Qiu Hong, cultivating this technique offered even greater benefits, potentially even preserving their youth and beauty forever!
"Ling Tian, this cultivation technique is too miraculous. Where did you get it?"
Ling Tian shrugged helplessly, "It's a long story. However, I only have these few jade pendants. Please keep this a secret, Teacher and Sister Qiu Hong!"
Master Yanyu nodded, "Ling Tian, rest assured, Qiu Hong and I would rather die than reveal this matter!
Qiu Hong, you must remember to keep this buried deep, not to tell anyone, not even anyone in our Yanyu Pavilion!
An innocent person is guilty only because he possesses treasure. If anyone learns that Ling Tian has such a valuable item, it will bring great danger to Ling Tian..."
"Teacher, please don't worry. I will definitely keep my mouth shut. Would I betray Ling Tian?" Qiu Hong said indignantly.
Master Yanyu nodded, "That's true."
Ling Tian continued, "Teacher, my suggestion is that you and Sister Qiu Hong temporarily do not rush to investigate the matters of Yanyu Pavilion yourselves. You can first hand over the investigation to your subordinates.
You two should spend some time cultivating this technique, strive to break through another bottleneck, and after your strength increases, it won't be too late to deal with those who practice crooked ways. This is called sharpening the axe before cutting wood."
"Alright, Ling Tian, we'll do as you say. Qiu Hong and I will go into seclusion for a while. Once we have achieved success in our cultivation, we will settle scores with those who practice crooked ways. Revenge is a dish best served cold!"
"Teacher, where will you and Sister Qiu Hong practice? I can help you cultivate more efficiently!"
"Come, Ling Tian, I'll show you!"
Master Yanyu said, personally leading Ling Tian, with Qiu Hong accompanying them. They arrived at a high point on the island, a small hill. Atop the hill was a pavilion, from which the island's surroundings could be seen clearly.
Ling Tian stood in the pavilion, observing the surrounding terrain and topography, a look of surprise on his face.
It turned out that this pavilion and the surrounding buildings, utilizing the terrain and landforms, had formed a natural spirit gathering formation.
With the effect of this spirit gathering formation, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth would slowly concentrate towards the pavilion, ensuring a continuous flow of spiritual energy to this location.
However, in Ling Tian's opinion, this spirit gathering formation was too simple and crude, and its efficiency in gathering spiritual energy was quite low.
So, Ling Tian took out his compass and took measurements within the pavilion. Following that, he took out a shovel and dug nine holes, each over a foot deep, around the pavilion.
Next, Ling Tian placed nine circular jade pendants into the holes, carefully filling them with soil.
Afterward, Ling Tian went to the center of the pavilion, took out a dagger, pried open the bluestone tile in the center, and dug another hole beneath it. He then took out another jade pendant, buried it directly in the hole, filled it with soil, and placed the bluestone tile back on top.
The moment this jade pendant was placed in the hole, Master Yanyu and Qiu Hong could feel that the airflow around them seemed to have changed.
They could sense something gathering towards the pavilion, and within the pavilion at this moment, they felt refreshed and invigorated, even experiencing the secretion of dopamine.
"Ling Tian, what did you do? Why do I feel like the climate here has changed somewhat?" Qiu Hong asked curiously.
"Nothing much, I'm just setting up a spirit gathering formation here.
Actually, this place was already a natural spirit gathering formation. I've rearranged this formation to make the spiritual energy of heaven and earth here more concentrated.
However, for the sake of safety and secrecy, the effect of this spirit gathering formation is limited. It can only make the concentration of spiritual energy here about three times that of other places on the island!
If this spirit gathering formation were too powerful, it would create obvious anomalies in the natural world, which might attract the attention of those with ulterior motives..."
"Very good, Ling Tian, you've considered everything thoroughly. In fact, I'm already very satisfied with increasing the concentration of spiritual energy by three times!
Qiu Hong, keep Ling Tian company. I will begin my cultivation here first. Once you've finished dealing with your current matters, you should also come into seclusion quickly."
Upon hearing this, Ling Tian quickly said, "Teacher, I'm worried that those who practice crooked ways will not give up and will launch more actions against Yanyu Pavilion. Therefore, I must rush to the capital as soon as possible to report this matter to the Righteous Alliance!
There is no time to delay. I will notify the airport to prepare now and will not linger here. After I finish my business, I will return to see you and Sister Qiu Hong."
With that, Ling Tian turned and ran, not lingering there for a moment.
"Alas, such a slippery fellow!" Master Yanyu shook her head with a wry smile. She then turned and saw Qiu Hong's resentful gaze.
"Forget it, Qiu Hong. Let's let this kid off this time. Don't be discouraged. After all, good things take time."
"I know, Teacher. Next time he comes, I will definitely capture him!" Qiu Hong said through gritted teeth, her deep affection turning into a fierce resolve!
Ling Tian took a motorboat from the island to the shore and directly took a taxi to the airport. On the way to the airport, he contacted his private jet and called Wang Bingxia, informing Wang Mingming that he would be going to the capital.
He then contacted Xie Liheng, telling him that he was going to the headquarters of the Righteous Alliance with very important matters to report.
Xie Liheng happened to be in the capital as well. He informed Ling Tian that he would send someone to the airport in the southern suburbs of the capital to pick him up and bring him directly to headquarters for reporting.
