Chapter 57 Resurrected Ancestor

No matter what, learning the Liubing Footwork made Fang Yue feel extremely happy and excited.

Because according to Fang Yue's original expectations, it might take him ten days to half a month to barely learn the Liubing Footwork.

After all, that was one of the three core techniques in Lord Han's inheritance. The difficulty of learning and applying it was unmatched by other martial arts in the inheritance.

But now he had suddenly learned it so easily, which was definitely a pleasant surprise.

Apart from the Ningbing Heart Sutra, what Fang Yue cared about most was another system notification.

"System Notification: Congratulations to player [Nightfall Dawn] for successful cultivation. [Ningbing Heart Sutra] has been upgraded to the second level. Internal force increased by 15,000 points, Yuli increased by 5,000 points, and Xieli increased by 5,000 points."

That's right, the Ningbing Heart Sutra had actually been upgraded to the second level during the previous state of enlightenment, in that wonderful feeling!

Fang Yue had already felt before that, while in the state of enlightenment, merely moving on the river surface caused the Ningbing Heart Sutra to rapidly improve, and his understanding of it changed every second, becoming more and more thorough and profound.

And now that state had receded, the remaining realm of the Ningbing Heart Sutra was truly preserved.

Fang Yue could feel that even if he stayed on the boat and cultivated day and night, the effect would not be as substantial as a second of cultivation in the state of enlightenment.

The difference in cultivation efficiency was simply unacceptable.

If Fang Yue's self-control wasn't strong enough, he would have even wanted to ask Old Duo and the others to turn around and look for the whereabouts of that demonic corpse again, to plunder its luck and enter the state of enlightenment again.

This kind of strength improvement, as well as that special state, was like taking a shortcut, and it was impossible to stop.

But Fang Yue knew in his heart that this kind of shortcut must have its drawbacks, and he must not go astray because of temporary greed.

"Brother Ye, are you okay?"

"Brother Ye, did you shake that thing off?"

"Little Ye, I knew you would come back!"

The crowd revolved around Fang Yue. After careful questioning, Fang Yue finally learned what happened after they separated.

It turned out that after Fang Yue led away the demonic corpse, a divergence and dispute occurred on the Cold River Giant Ship.

In the early morning, Jing Yan and others expressed their dissatisfaction with Old Duo's unauthorized actions. After Fang Yue led away the demonic corpse, he continued to move forward without stopping.

They believed that Fang Yue would come back and find them again along this straight trajectory.

But Old Duo felt that the river and sea were vast, and even if Fang Yue knew that their large ship had been sailing straight on the river, it would be difficult for him to find them and reunite with them if he lost his sense of direction.

At the same time, the Cold River was full of dangers, and staying in one place for too long was like testing fate with one's life. Even an experienced veteran like Old Duo dared not take such a risk.

Under these circumstances, the two sides had an argument.

Old Duo only cared about Tian Ruichi's safety, and Tian Ruichi, on a rational level, also felt that Old Duo's words made sense.

But emotionally, he couldn't convince himself to just give up on Fang Yue, who risked his life to lead away the danger.

So, he finally reached an agreement with Old Duo.

That was that the Cold River Giant Ship would stop in place for some time every certain distance.

Maintaining a relative speed of movement in exchange for a certain amount of stop time, leaving Fang Yue with enough possibility to catch up.

This was the reason why the parchment was difficult to locate the Cold River Giant Ship, after all, the Cold River Giant Ship was really moving, but the frequency of movement was not high.

"However, I really didn't expect that you kid could escape from that guy's hands."

Old Duo looked at Fang Yue with a complicated expression.

As the spirit of the Cold River Giant Ship, Old Duo naturally knew what level of existence the demonic corpse was.

That was a terrifying and strange being that was a hegemon-level existence in the entire Cold River!

He had encountered it once, and if it hadn't been for a high-level strange being who didn't know any better and went up to provoke the demonic corpse, buying him time to escape, he would probably have died at that time.

And as a result, naturally the demonic corpse won the final victory. After all, after that, he never saw that provocative high-level strange being again, but he could often feel that terrifying aura from afar.

Old Duo wasn't an immortal being. The Cold River Giant Ship was his body. The destruction of the ship meant the death of the man, which wasn't just talk.

The terror of that demonic corpse still lingered in Old Duo's mind, and he didn't dare to think deeply about it.

It was because he understood the power of the demonic corpse that he was so pessimistic about Fang Yue being able to come back alive.

But Fang Yue had indeed come back alive now, which made Old Duo have to correctly examine and size up the guy in front of him, and slowly open his mouth.

"What is your background? And that footwork that comes on ice, I have lived so long, and I have only heard a few people who can freeze the water of the Cold River and walk on ice! Could it be that you are the Sect Master of the Extreme Ice Sect? Or... are you the mysterious Supreme Sect Master of the Extreme Ice Sect?"

This kind of speculation obviously raised Fang Yue's level by several levels for no reason.

The Sect Master of the Extreme Ice Sect? Supreme Sect Master [Qi Ba Jiu]?

What a joke, if I had that kind of strength, would I still be restricted by you, a small ship spirit, like this?

However, the name of the Supreme Sect Master of the Extreme Ice Sect that came out of Old Duo's mouth aroused Fang Yue's interest.

"Does Old Duo know Lord [Qi Ba Jiu]? Is she still doing well?"

Lord Qi Ba Jiu and the Tail share the same body.

The recent situation of Lord Qi Ba Jiu is the recent situation of the Tail.

But Old Duo said, "I have only heard rumors about her. It is said that this Supreme Sect Master of the Extreme Ice Sect is the founder of the Extreme Ice Sect, that is, the ancestor of the Extreme Ice Sect! This kind of guy should have died long ago. I don't know where the wind is blowing from, saying that she has been resurrected from the dead. And as far as I know, only people who have the superior Ningbing Kungfu like the Extreme Ice Sect can freeze the water of the Cold River..."

So that's how it is. It seems that Lord Qi Ba Jiu is still very low-key.

After thinking about it, Fang Yue glanced at Lin Ling, and then said frankly, "To tell you the truth, this set of Kungfu of mine was passed down from my master Han Bai, Lord Han's martial arts..."

While Fang Yue was speaking, he stared at Old Duo, paying attention to any subtle changes in him.

To be honest, a rain-level expert like Lord Han, who couldn't be found in the entire Qing Kingdom, actually ended up living in a remote place like Guyue Village. No matter how you looked at it, it was unreasonable.

And Lord Han had suffered extremely severe night cold erosion... The only ones who could force a rain-level expert like Lord Han to such a point were rain-level experts of the same level!

And where in the Qing Kingdom were there the most rain-level experts? That goes without saying, naturally it was the capital!

Therefore, Lord Han's hidden injuries, those encounters, must be related to some big figures in the capital!

Now that Lord Han was gone, Fang Yue wanted to find out what Lord Han had encountered.

As his disciple, he had hardly repaid Lord Han.

If he could do something for Lord Han in this matter, and if he could revive Lord Han through Lin Ling in the future, he could proudly call him master and live up to the name of master and disciple.
