Douluo Continent: Martial Soul Pill Devouring, I am the True Path of the Tang Sect

"But we can make up for this with other methods. Back then, there was a school of speech among the 360 ​​trades."

"I used their magic."

Tang Jiaren continued.

"Second Grandfather, I want to learn!"

Qin Qi spoke up.

"Don't worry, I'll pass on all my skills to you sooner or later. For now, you should learn how to become invisible and how to conceal your mind."

"The hidden mind is very important. Even if you don't use the illusionary body barrier, you'll still need it in your daily life."

Tang Jiaren spoke up.

In the following period, Qin Qi began to study the first stage of the Illusionary Body Barrier: invisibility and mind concealment.

It took Qin Qi a full month to successfully get the hang of this stage of learning.

[Ding! Congratulations on learning Illusionary Body Barrier. Achievement Points +1, Academic Credits +100]

But once you get the hang of it, you can become perfectly invisible without appearing semi-transparent or ghost-like.

"Entering stealth mode is too slow, and while it's okay to stand still, it's not so good when moving around."

"Overall, my proficiency is still too low, and I'm still far from reaching the second stage of learning."

Tang Jiaren said after looking at Qin Qi's illusion barrier.

"Ah."

Qin Qi looked at his proficiency panel.

【Illusory Body Barrier (Beginner): Proficiency, 1%】

"Second Grandfather, I have a question. With your skill in creating illusionary barriers, how exactly were you discovered back then?"

Qin Qi looked at Tang Jiaren and asked with great confusion.

Back when they attacked the ninja leader, if Tang Jiaren's illusion hadn't been exposed, he would have succeeded.

He was able to retreat calmly after killing people; in fact, he could have run away if he wanted to.

But in order to kill the ninja leader, he chose to trade his life for another!

"That's a good question. I didn't understand how I was discovered back then either."

"But now I understand, and I'll explain it to you properly, so listen carefully."

Tang Jiaren planned to tell Qin Qi about this incident so that Qin Qi could avoid repeating the same mistake.

"Back then, the ninja leader used a technique I had never seen before, and I didn't understand the principle behind it at the time."

"But when I think back, I remember that there seemed to be a slight fluctuation that swept across my body at that time."

"That must be an extremely subtle energy fluctuation, which ninjas detect."

"If you treat the ground or air as water, this energy will return as ripples whenever it touches something."

"Understanding the surroundings by interpreting these ripples."

Tang Jiaren didn't know what ultrasonic detection was, but through his long experience, he figured out why he had been discovered.

"Ah."

Qin Qi nodded. He knew about ultrasonic detection, but did he know there was a way to deal with it?

"Although our illusionary body barrier is no longer visible, it still truly exists."

"After being touched by that subtle energy, it will still fluctuate back; a blank space suddenly started to fluctuate."

"That will definitely be discovered, but I've already figured out a way to deal with it."

Tang Jiaren suddenly revealed a very confident smile. In terms of the Illusionary Body Barrier, he was also one of the top in the Tang Sect.

"any solution?"

Qin Qi asked.

"The Illusion Barrier isn't just about invisibility; the illusion is also important. You'll need to be careful when you encounter an opponent with this ability next time."

"Then when the opponent uses a move, you can use illusion magic to create a fake ripple effect to reflect it back."

"This way, the other party won't be able to find you, and you can even create a false location to mislead the other party."

"Take this opportunity to carry out an assassination."

Tang Jiaren offered a solution in just a few words, but achieving it required a high level of mastery over the illusionary body barrier.

Qin Qi is not able to do that yet.

"Something feels a bit..."

Qin Qi suddenly thought of mental detection. If what his second great-grandfather said was true, then ultrasound could fake feedback.

Could the same method be used to deceive mental detection? If so, then the illusion of the body would truly have completely disappeared!

In the following time, Tang Jiaren taught Qin Qi some tips on using the Illusionary Body Barrier.

Qin Qi memorized everything and prepared to practice and learn it gradually over the next period of time.

After the lesson ended, the father and son started chatting.

"Second Grandfather, you just told me that if we can't kill them, we should run away and then look for an opportunity."

"But why didn't you run back then? Didn't you have a chance to run?"

Qin Qi asked with some curiosity.

"The opportunity is there, and if I want to run, no one can stop me."

“But if I run away, the ninja will be frightened and will definitely hide, and then it will be impossible to kill him.”

"But if he doesn't die! We don't know how many more soldiers from our Yanhuang Sect will die."

"So... I have no choice but to trade my life for another."

Tang Jiaren scratched his head, smiled, and said.

"Sigh, what an information gap! If you had discovered the opponent's ninjutsu earlier, this battle would have had a completely different outcome."

Qin Qi couldn't help but sigh, if they had known about the ninja leader's ninjutsu earlier, the outcome might have been different.

Chapter 51: The first semester is over, reward: Vortex Physique!

A year has passed in the blink of an eye.

During this year, Qin Qi studied hard, cultivated diligently, and worked hard to unlock his full potential.

Finally, he successfully advanced to level 20 and achieved first place in all subjects in the first year, including academics, martial arts, and combat!

[Ding! Unprecedented and unparalleled, the first stage of the Notting First Academy series of quests is complete.]

[Rewards: Chakra Threads, Chakra Puppet Technique, Uzumaki Physique!]

"Claim your reward."

After receiving the reward, Qin Qi immediately thought of a method to create chakra threads using Qi.

There are also methods for controlling the puppets.

[Talent: Vortex Physique: The upper limit of your body's life force and energy capacity will be greatly increased!]

This talent is of the physical type, and it will take three days to fuse with it.

[This will not have any adverse effects on the host, and you are free to move around!]

"The vortex physique is the physique of the Uzumaki clan in Naruto, right?"

Qin Qi thought about the Uzumaki clan in Naruto. This clan is famous for its enormous vitality and chakra.

There are also sealing techniques, such as the one used by the protagonist Naruto Uzumaki, who inherited the Uzumaki physique.

However, Naruto's physical condition was overlooked after the appearance of the Nine-Tails.

Qin Qi clenched his fist. There was no drastic change in his body, but his body was already filled with Qi.

But now there is much more space in the body, which can absorb more Qi.

"Chakra threads can be created using Qi, and puppetry techniques can also be learned."

"The only problem is... damn it, how do I do this?!"

"You gave me the method to learn puppetry, but why didn't you give me the method to create puppets?!"

Qin Qi couldn't help but complain in his heart.

The technique of throwing hidden weapons is simply the method of throwing them; there is no method of making hidden weapons.

After receiving his semester's rewards, Qin Qi spent the rest of his time seeking out the principal.

Using the principal's connections, he obtained a Soul Hunting Token, and then set off alone to hunt soul beasts.

…………

"Qin Qi, although you are now level 20, our junior academy teachers can no longer help you hunt for spirit rings."

"But Principal, I can do it! I'm a Soul Master of level 40+!"

After learning that Qin Qi was going to hunt for martial spirits alone, the principal spoke with great concern.

"Yes, you are a Soul Master, but aren't you a support-oriented weapon-based Soul Master?"

Qin Qi looked at the principal and felt that he now had a good chance of winning even if he challenged the principal, who was at a higher level.

"Besides, you haven't personally fought or hunted souls for many years, have you? After all these years, can you still really fight?"

Qin Qi heard a lot of gossip about the academy during that year, including some about the principal.

"Ahem, of course we can fight."

"And I'm not being lazy, it's just that I'm busy with school affairs and don't have time to exercise."

The principal coughed awkwardly twice; he hadn't personally taken to the field to fight in many years.

"Then you can continue with your official duties. I can handle the spirit ring matter myself."
