929: Chapter 925: The Art of Flying 929: Chapter 925: The Art of Flying After saying so many alarming words, Tian Qi brought up the old topic again.
This time, Ye Tian’s attitude was naturally not as firm as before!
“Tian Qi, you said you betrayed the Black Hole Clan.
Then why are you still wearing the iconic black robe of the clan?
Aren’t you afraid of being found and killed by them?”
Ye Tian asked curiously, and Tian Qi immediately replied, “Night King, I merely left the Black Hole Clan; this is not betrayal.
The Black Hole Clan doesn’t hold its former members accountable, just like James!”
“James?”
Ye Tian heard a familiar name again and felt a bit intrigued.
“Yes, James!”
Tian Qi nodded.
“James originally was a candidate for the Thirteen Guardians, but due to his lack of strength, he couldn’t make it as ‘Thirteen.’ In shame and anger, James chose to leave the Black Hole Clan.
The Black Hole Clan did not hunt him down.
On the contrary, after his death, the Seventh Elder even proposed avenging him!
If not for your pure-blood Divine Race lineage, I fear the Seventh Elder would have already sent experts to kill you!”
“I see…”
Another doubt resolved, Ye Tian couldn’t help but nod as well.
“But, Tian Qi, by cooperating with me to ensure my safety, aren’t you essentially making yourself an enemy of the Black Hole Clan?
Wouldn’t this still count as betrayal?
I think even you must surely be targeted by the Seventh Elder now, right?”
Tian Qi sighed and said, “Although that may be so, for the sake of my people, being an enemy of the Seventh Elder doesn’t matter.”
“That’s good!”
Ye Tian sighed along with Tian Qi, then extended his hand toward her.
“Tian Qi, you’re right.
Right now, you have your goals, and I have mine.
Moreover, we can mutually benefit.
If that’s the case, cooperation would indeed be better.
Starting today, we’ll be allies!”
“Night King, I hope our cooperation lasts joyfully and smoothly!”
Seeing Ye Tian’s sincerity, Tian Qi naturally gripped Ye Tian’s hand tightly.
This gesture marked the beginning of their partnership.
After the handshake, Ye Tian added, “Tian Qi, since you’ve already left the Black Hole Clan, I assume you must be without a home.
If so, why not stay at the headquarters manor of Night King Hall?
I have plenty of rooms here, don’t worry!”
“Alright!”
Tian Qi nodded immediately and didn’t reject Ye Tian’s offer.
Ye Tian then called in Ye Xuong, who had been waiting at the door for quite some time.
Since Ye Tian and Tian Qi’s discussion lasted for quite a while, Ye Xuong had grown a bit tired waiting outside.
At Ye Tian’s command, he quickly stepped inside.
“Ye Xuong, from today onwards, Miss Tian Qi will be our guest at Night King Hall.
Arrange a suitable room for her!”
Ye Xuong couldn’t help but glance at Tian Qi.
Her attire was so strange, and there was an air of danger about her, so Ye Xuong didn’t feel at ease.
“Boss, this woman’s background is unclear.
How can you let her reside in Night King Hall?
Look at her strange attire—our brothers might not accept her easily!”
Ye Xuong tried to dissuade him, but Ye Tian shook his head.
“I already understand Tian Qi’s background, so there’s no need to worry!
As for her peculiar attire, that’s even less of a problem.
Ye Xuong, have Bilis accompany Tian Qi to go shopping and buy some fitting clothes; this way, no one can comment on how unusual her outfit is!”
“Understood…”
Ye Xuong accepted the order, and though he still felt uneasy, he had no choice but to comply with Ye Tian’s command.
“Miss Tian Qi, please follow me!”
Ye Xuong said politely to Tian Qi.
She nodded and followed Ye Xuong out.
Once the two of them left, Ye Tian also exited the tea room and headed straight to the rear courtyard of Night King Hall’s headquarters manor.
Compared to the front courtyard, the rear courtyard appeared to be quieter.
Today, there was no one else in the rear courtyard, making it an ideal place for Ye Tian to train.
In the back hills of the manor, Ye Tian practiced the technique of “Wind and Cloud Combined.” Though he hadn’t completely succeeded, he had made some progress!
At the very least, Ye Tian had grasped some of its secrets!
The opponents he would face in the future were extremely formidable, so Ye Tian had to become stronger as soon as possible.
At present, cultivating the Maha Infinity technique was the most suitable path.
In the pavilion of the rear courtyard, Ye Tian sat cross-legged in meditation, channeling Silent Qi of the Nether God and regulating his breath.
Soon, Ye Tian began channeling two powers: Xuan Yun Energy and Wind Flow Strength.
In no time, the whooshing sound of wind arose around Ye Tian.
The wind grew louder and fiercer, enveloping Ye Tian’s body completely.
With Ye Tian as the eye of the storm, a whirlwind ascended, but the power he was channeling wasn’t limited to just the Power of Wind; it also included the Power of Clouds!
Normally, strong winds would disperse clouds, but due to Ye Tian’s extraordinarily potent Power of Clouds, the clouds surrounding his body remained unaffected by the storm’s force.
This created a spectacle where the whirlwind and dense cloud coexisted!
Ye Tian carefully channeled his energy, gradually absorbing the whirlwind and clouds surrounding his body into himself…
“Whoosh—whoosh—whoosh—whoosh—”
The sound of the wind diminished, and at the same time, the dense clouds also waned.
The Power of Wind and Power of Clouds both entered Ye Tian’s body simultaneously, forming a vigorous cyclone within him.
The spinning noise of the cyclone wasn’t far off from that of a real tornado…
Of course, the energy Ye Tian absorbed was not limited to the Power of Wind.
Though the Power of Clouds lacked the expressive form of the Power of Wind, it was heavy, tranquil, and immensely powerful!
Once both the Power of Clouds and Power of Wind had been entirely absorbed into his body, Ye Tian stood up…
Earlier, when he trained on the back mountain, Ye Tian had absorbed both forces into himself before adjusting their relative strengths.
This time, however, he paid special attention during absorption, making the strengths of the Power of Clouds and Power of Wind within him vastly different.
“Yet, I still don’t feel the sense of fusion!”
Ye Tian sighed and muttered.
Despite his efforts to merge the two forces within himself, they hadn’t completely blended, only partially fused…
Ye Tian had previously merged various powers within himself, so he was quite adept at combining energies.
However, merging the Power of Clouds and Power of Wind seemed different from his prior experiences; it required new theoretical understanding.
Nonetheless, even partial fusion resulted in immense power.
Ye Tian could already sense a surge of a profoundly intense force rising within him.
Such power from partial fusion alone left Ye Tian unable to imagine the level of strength he would achieve if he fully fused the Power of Clouds and Power of Wind.
“Whoosh…
whoosh…”
Ye Tian gently swung his palm, his hand gliding slowly through the air.
Even such a simple motion generated fierce sounds.
As his palm brushed against the air, sparks even emerged from the friction!
Since this was the rear courtyard of Night King Hall, Ye Tian refrained from swinging his hands with excessive force.
His Palm Force was formidable; if he exerted himself, he might damage the courtyard’s grass, bamboo, and stones—which would be regrettable…
So, Ye Tian ceased his palm movements and expelled the Power of Clouds from his body!
“Whoosh—whoosh—whoosh—whoosh—”
Within Ye Tian’s body, the Power of Clouds served as the carrier for all other energies: traditional Inner Strength, the Power of Life, the Power of Death, Spirit Vein Stone power, and the Power of Clouds.
It was through the Power of Clouds that these forces merged.
Thus, after fully expelling the Power of Clouds, Ye Tian retained only the Power of Wind within himself!
Though Ye Tian hadn’t spent much time cultivating Wind Flow Strength, the Power of Wind within him was anything but weak.
Similar to a disciple who has trained for decades, Ye Tian’s Power of Wind was robust enough to hold its own against any opponent…
The reason Ye Tian retained only the Power of Wind in his body was that after channeling it for the first time, he felt as though his body was floating in the air through its assistance.
Then, upon channeling the Power of Clouds, his body landed back on the ground.
The Power of Wind and Power of Clouds were two entirely different types of energy—Wind was light and agile, while Clouds were heavy and steadfast…
To put it plainly, Wind was lighter, and Clouds were heavier!
Among Ye Tian’s opponents, Sima Feng, Sima Yun, and others were capable of freely soaring through the air.
Although Ye Tian ultimately defeated them, their ability to fly caused him significant trouble during the fights.
Ye Tian’s Qinggong had reached an advanced level.
Even when in mid-air, he could utilize floating dust particles to move freely in the air.
However, even so, this was far from actual “flight.” If Ye Tian faced an incredibly powerful opponent in the future, he might find himself completely outmatched!
Thus, it was imperative for Ye Tian to master the technique of flying as soon as possible!
