I have seen dragons

Chapter 12 Visualization Diagram [Thanks to "Juanfeng" for the generous donation]

In the quiet of the night.

Qi Dian sat on the ground, staring intently at Yue Wen, his eyes gleaming and his face slightly flushed.

Yue Wen silently took a step back.

He's been seeing a lot of rumors about cultivators from Tianfu Prefecture lately, which makes him a bit sensitive.

After a long pause, Qi Dian sighed and said, "Brother Yue, I must apologize to you. I previously looked down on you because of your status as a rogue cultivator, but I never expected that you would not only have such high cultivation but also righteously save my life. I am truly sorry."

Hi.

So blushing means you're shy.

I thought she was just shy.

That was almost frightening.

Yue Wen was relieved and smiled, "It's alright, you even treated me to dinner."

He wasn't worried about revealing too much of his strength, which might lead Qi Dian to speculate about what treasures he possessed and attract covetousness.

That's a plot device often used in novels. In reality, there are too many things that affect a cultivator's combat power: magical artifacts, cultivation techniques, supernatural abilities, elixirs, talismans, spirit pets... Qi Dian didn't see the battle process, so it's highly unlikely that he would have any ideas about it.

Moreover, in today's society governed by the rule of law, maintaining public order and stability in urban areas is of paramount importance, and it is not so easy for murders and robberies to occur.

If it were in a lawless, desolate area, Yue Wen would definitely keep a much lower profile.

"How can a meal of fried chicken repay a life-saving favor?" Qi Dian said earnestly. "Fellow Daoist Yue, is there anything you need? I will do my best to repay you as long as it is within my power."

Oh?
Hearing him say that, Yue Wen perked up.

If Qi Dian hadn't asked, he wouldn't have sought repayment for his kindness, since he'd already gained a lot from killing the man in black. However, since you've come to me of your own accord…

Jie Jie Jie...

Yue Wen thought for a moment and said, "We are both righteous cultivators, so it's no big deal for us to help each other. I certainly didn't save people for any reward. However, if Brother Qi really doesn't want to have any lingering resentment, then there's no need to bring out anything valuable. I was quite interested in the spell Brother Qi used when he first appeared."

Qi Dian's appearance was terrifying, with flashes of light and thunder, startling the evil cultivators as if they were facing a formidable enemy.

It was later discovered that his cultivation level was insufficient to cause such a significant effect; without a doubt, it must have been enhanced by some kind of supernatural power or technique.

His cultivation level is hard to say, but he's got a knack for showing off.

"That one?" Qi Dian gave a somewhat stiff laugh. "Those are two supernatural abilities that all disciples of our Linjiang Sect must master upon entering the sect. Our master said that when disciples of our sect fight against others, they must first use these two moves to demonstrate the sect's prestige. One is Thunderclap Technique, and the other is Flash Technique."

"I see."

Yue Wen thought to himself, "No wonder." These were all experts who made their appearances, their true energy circulating rapidly throughout their bodies, creating phenomena in the surrounding spiritual energy, such as lightning and thunder, and colorful rays of light. The Thunder and Lightning Techniques were things they had to manually activate, artificially creating special effects to achieve the same visual and auditory impact.

This Linjiangmen is something else; no wonder it's been able to grow so big in Jiangcheng.

“Since you’re interested, Brother Yue, let’s exchange contact information first. I’ll send you the visualization diagrams for these two spells.” Qi Dian took out his phone.

“No problem.” Yue Wen then scanned his QR code.

Immediately, a contact interface called "Young Master Qi Wanders the Martial World" appeared on the phone. After Yue Wen clicked on the friend request, he glanced up and saw that Qi Dian's face had turned even redder.

This Qi guy is quite a chuunibyou (a person with delusions of grandeur).

However, Qi Dian soon discovered that the person who sent the friend request had the online name "AAAA Yue Clan Cultivation Agency Manager," and he also looked up at Yue Wen.

Now it was Yue Wen's turn to blush.

Sure enough, no one can stand having their online name scrutinized in public.

It was Qi Dian who broke the awkward silence with two strings of electronic codes: "These are forwarded from our sect's archives. Brother Yue, you can log in using my key 9527."

"Okay." Yue Wen nodded.

All the techniques and supernatural abilities in this world are passed down in the form of "visualization diagrams".

The visualization diagrams drawn with Daoist principles contain the truths of techniques; only by thoroughly comprehending them can one master this skill and its supernatural powers. The more profound the visualization diagram, the stronger the comprehension required to understand it.

To make a copy of the visualization image requires a very high level of cultivation.

Although Qi Dian had cultivated these two divine abilities himself, he clearly lacked the ability to reproduce them. He could only forward the visualization diagram links from the library. The security level of these two divine abilities was not high, and Linjiang Sect disciples could freely browse and forward them. However, whoever used the key to log in would be charged a fee during the visualization period.

That's right.

After Yue Wen clicked on it, he discovered that every second he spent meditating was being charged continuously.

He quickly withdrew. "Brother Yue, don't worry about it. Just try to understand it completely," Qi Dian said.

"As you know, I'm a rogue cultivator, so I don't have much experience in comprehending supernatural powers." Yue Wen smiled apologetically. "It might take a little longer."

"It's alright," Qi Dian said casually, tossing his bangs aside. "Compared to saving a life, what is this?"

……

As soon as Qi Dian woke up, Yue Wen called the Supermarket Management Bureau. The two chatted for a while, and then the Supermarket Management Bureau's cleanup team arrived.

Yue Wen and Qi Dian made a brief statement and then went home.

The man in black was a genuine evil cultivator, and his name was suspected to be on the wanted list in Fulei Province. Not only would Yue Wen face no legal risks in killing him, but he would also receive a cash reward if the deception was confirmed. Even if killing him didn't yield any evil spirit money, Yue Wen would still reap a substantial reward.

You could say that every part of her is a treasure.

Yue Wen rode his electric scooter back to the office, but there were still no clients or messages. The only thing left on the door was a utility bill.

He tidied himself up quickly and then sat cross-legged. He first logged into the link, clicked on the visualization diagram inside, closed his eyes, concentrated, and immersed himself in visualization.

In the blink of an eye, his consciousness entered the world depicted in the picture without any delay.

The visualization of the Thunder Technique is like a thunder pool, with constant booming and strange noises, and above one's head, there seems to be the Thunder God and Lightning Goddess constantly creating heaven and earth.

The visualization of the Flash spell is filled with dazzling colors and light, endlessly colorful and ever-changing, making people unconsciously dizzy.

Twenty minutes later, he had thoroughly understood both the Thunder and Flash spells.

He had indeed learned few supernatural powers and techniques, but the first thing he practiced was the True Dragon Dao.

Having comprehended the visualization diagrams of the True Dragon Dao and the Sword Control Technique, looking at the visualization diagrams of these two minor supernatural powers is like having fought Taro and Zero before, only to be suddenly told that you are going to fight Asuka Kira today.

It's not only simple, but also a bit boring.

It only took twenty minutes to finish sprinkling water.

After finishing his practice, he sighed slightly, realizing that having the resources of a celestial sect behind him was indeed a significant advantage. His twenty minutes of cultivation would only cost him a few hundred yuan at most. But if he were to buy visualization diagrams for those two minor supernatural abilities on the market, they would easily cost tens of thousands of yuan.

It's true that it's easy for spiritual practitioners to make money, but everything related to spiritual practice is incredibly expensive. Those who can save money either have connections or simply don't want to spend any more money on their own advancement.

After learning the supernatural powers, he turned off his phone and began to organize what he had learned that day.

Store the cash for now. As for the half of the black gold skull, I don't know what it's for. I'll go find a shop selling immortal items and ask them about it. If all else fails, I can melt it down and sell it as material; it could be worth quite a bit of money.

After taking out the piece of purple cloth, he examined it carefully under the light, but still couldn't find anything unusual.

Only that one emblem remains.

After a while, he opened the drawer again and took out a black card.

The card appeared to be made of some kind of crystal, not plastic, and had a matte, glossy sheen. The back was completely black, while the front featured a logo painted in gold.

Countless long snakes with their tongues out coiled around a ferocious tiger with menacing fangs!

The emblem is exactly the same as the one on that piece of cloth.

Three years ago, Yue Wen's parents took him on a car trip when suddenly there was a loud bang, followed by a dizzying spin.

A massive, pitch-black rift appeared directly in front of them, with a strong suction force, like a vortex, and a pair of giant eyes could be vaguely seen looking over from the other side of the rift.

That ancient and terrifying gaze still sends chills down Yue Wen's spine when he thinks about it.

In the churning car, his father-in-law suddenly grabbed him and said solemnly, "There's a black card tucked inside the book I gave you when you graduated. You must keep it safe and don't let anyone see it. When you're more capable in the future, go and find it."

Yue Wen didn't know what his father meant. After the car crashed into a building on the side of the road and came to a stop, he vaguely saw his parents crawl out and walk towards the black mist that was spreading from the crack.

His consciousness gradually weakened, and he eventually fell into a coma.

When I woke up again, it was already six months later.

When I got home, there were signs that many places had been disturbed, indicating that the Supermarket Management Bureau had searched the place. However, the card that was tucked inside the graduation gift was still there. This card also didn't seem to have any mystique or spiritual energy; it was just like an ordinary material.

That's why they escaped the search.

The clue Yue Wen found about the emblem came from a paper his father had published, which described the emblem's origin.

Snake Mountain and Tiger Tomb.
