After submitting the special mission, Jiang Lin received a large number of contribution points and dozens of cultivation cards.
"As expected of a special mission, they are very generous."
After confirming the departure time with the sealing team, Jiang Lin exchanged the excess cultivation cards for contribution points.
He then exchanged all the contribution points for various cultivation methods and skills from the Southern Hall.
It didn't matter if he couldn't finish learning them all; he could consider them as souvenirs.
He would study them slowly after returning to the Eastern Hall.
Originally, Jiang Lin wanted to directly exchange for a Southern Hall arena that could suppress those below the Ghost King realm.
He planned to bring it back for the members of the eighteenth team to use.
However, after inquiring, he learned that such an arena could only be made by ghosts from the Western Hall.
Although the materials were unique to their Southern Hall, the technology was unique to the Western Hall.
"Eastern Hall for sealing, Western Hall for ghost artifacts, Southern Hall for cultivation methods and skills, Northern Hall for musical instruments and paper crafting."
Jiang Lin murmured.
This was what Senior Xu Youzhi from the sealing team had said on their way to the Southern Hall.
Coincidentally, they would also be visiting the Western Hall later.
He would see if the Western Hall could craft it then.
However...
"I hope the currency of the Western Hall is also usable."
Otherwise, he would have to take on missions again.
...
For the next few days, Jiang Lin focused entirely on his cultivation.
Sometimes, he would also seek out Meng Shen for guidance on issues in the cultivation manuals to deepen his understanding. Da Feng Novel Network
After Jiang Lin left again, Meng Shen's friend Jiu Ze came over.
Watching Jiang Lin's retreating back, Jiu Ze asked:
"That's a ghost messenger from the Eastern Hall, right? I heard he's leaving, but why does he seem so busy?"
Meng Shen smiled, "They didn't come here for a vacation."
"That's true, they probably carry the expectations of the Eastern Hall."
Jiu Ze nudged Meng Shen with his elbow, "He just came to ask you for advice, didn't he? How was it?"
Meng Shen recalled his interactions with Jiang Lin over the past few days and said with emotion:
"He learns very quickly, a promising talent."
Based on the questions Jiang Lin raised, it was clear that this was his first time encountering and learning these cultivation methods of the Southern Hall.
But at the same time,
It was also evident that he had deeply considered the points in the cultivation methods.
He could even draw out other conjectures and ideas based on his answers.
"I estimate... in a short while, he'll be able to extend other skills based on the basic cultivation methods himself."
"He might even create new cultivation methods or skills."
Jiu Ze was a little surprised, "Your evaluation is quite high?"
Meng Shen chuckled lightly, "Being sent out by the Eastern Hall in the first place means he's not to be underestimated."
"That's true."
The four regions have not had much interaction lately.
But now it seemed that while they in the Southern Hall were strengthening themselves, the other three halls had not fallen behind.
"How have things been on your end recently?" Meng Shen asked, turning his head.
Speaking of this, Jiu Ze's face fell, and he stretched his arm.
"That Black Wuchang from the Eastern Hall is a real handful, he wants to fight every day."
Meng Shen laughed, "Aren't all the ghosts you're guarding there for fighting?"
"But that guy is powerful and recovers quickly. Every time he's beaten to the point of being unable to move, he's back on his feet the next day."
Jiu Ze complained, "Take him away quickly!"
"You have your day too, hahaha..."
Meng Shen laughed without any reservation.
Normally, he only heard of ghosts trying their best to escape. This was the first time he heard of a guarding ghost messenger wanting to escape.
Jiu Ze: "That's enough from you."
Meng Shen: "Hahahaha..."
With this, he could be happy for three days.
...
Meanwhile, in the Southern Hall cultivation room—
Meng Shen's guess was correct. Jiang Lin was indeed planning to thoroughly study the three basic cultivation methods.
Then, based on the basic cultivation methods, he would extend and create cultivation methods or skills.
But what Meng Shen didn't expect was that Jiang Lin had already developed something—wings.
Even Jiang Lin himself was a little surprised.
According to the third volume of the basic cultivation method—how to use external objects to strengthen oneself.
To use external objects, the first step is to fully understand their characteristics and properties.
As well as their operating principles and force trajectories.
Then comes the second step—how to create 'external objects' using ghost energy.
The third step is how to use them flexibly and for one's own benefit.
"..."
Jiang Lin controlled the black wings and flew a circle in the cultivation room.
If these three steps were understood in simple terms, it would be like a mobile phone. Da Feng Novel.
The first is understanding the principles, the second is manufacturing the phone, and the third is...
Charging it and using it.
In the underworld, it's about injecting ghost energy into the formed wings...
However,
If it were just this, it would be no different from ghost artifacts or ghost objects.
But now, Jiang Lin felt like...
He had grown a pair of wings himself.
It was like a fledgling bird that had just learned to fly, learning how to use its wings.
In other words, these wings... were equivalent to a part of his body.
But if the wings were injured, it wouldn't cause significant damage to the internal body.
"Quite marvelous."
Jiang Lin muttered as he flew, conducting various experiments.
Beside him,
The colorful egg also used soft clouds to add a pair of wings to its shell, mimicking Jiang Lin.
It flew around Jiang Lin's wings.
—Master has grown wings!
The pair of wings behind Jiang Lin were entirely black, with a span of two meters when unfolded.
They didn't look large, but they were lifelike, with distinct feathers.
Jiang Lin knew these were the wings of the 'Great Swallow'.
The reason he could cultivate wings so quickly was also due to the memories from his past life as a 'Swallow'.
The structure of the wings, the way they exerted force, the trajectory of their growth...
He was all too familiar with them.
Looking at the wingtips extending in front of him, Jiang Lin touched the distinct feathers.
They felt as real as actual feathers.
"The wings are formed by ghost energy, so the feathers should also contain power."
Jiang Lin pondered, "Besides flying, can the feathers also be used as sharp weapons for attack?"
With so many energy aggregates, even if they were thrown directly, they could cause significant impact force.
In urgent situations, he wouldn't need to gather power; he could just shoot out a flurry of feathers.
The more Jiang Lin thought about it, the more feasible it seemed. "Let's try!"
He tossed the colorful egg aside and began practicing in the cultivation room.
The ghost messengers of the Southern Hall were warlike, and the building materials of the cultivation room were inherently suitable for practicing various moves.
Moreover,
Having had the experience of breaking through the ceiling once, Jiang Lin directly chose a high-level cultivation room this time.
...
The colorful egg obediently shrunk to the side.
Jiang Lin stood in the air, his two-meter-long black feathers spread out behind him.
Swish, swish, swish!
Dozens of feathers fell, creating dozens of pits on the floor.
A cloud of dust billowed.
"Need to consider flying out simultaneously, and also pay attention to the force and speed..."
Jiang Lin murmured, retracting the feathers.
After the feathers left, the pits on the floor quickly recovered their original state.
Swish, swish, swish!
Swish, swish, swish!
Feathers continuously flew out and were retracted.
"Need to be faster..."
Through repeated trials and improvements, Jiang Lin's control over his ghost energy became smoother and more flexible.
Polishing the feathers was like polishing sharp weapons, knowing where they should be sharp and where they should be rounded.
The speed and force of their launch also tested his control.
These were precisely what Jiang Lin had been lacking.
Furthermore,
Jiang Lin could feel that this experimental process was also very beneficial for his cultivation.
The cultivation room already had abundant ghost energy.
The black feathers flying out and retracting repeatedly, and the circulation of ghost energy within his body,
Could all enhance his cultivation.
...
