Chapter 211 Fuxi's Professional Guidance!
three hours later
Looking at the somewhat simple underground cave, Ye Mingqiu asked curiously, "Fuxi, is this the place you mentioned that conceals the secrets of heaven? A place where one can hide from the gods' detection?"

“That’s right. Although this place is a bit simple, it’s safe. This cave is in a remote location, and there are Divine Concealment Stones around it to shield against divine sense detection. It’s perfectly fine to hide your tracks for a short time.”

"Not for a long time?"

"The gods are still very powerful."

"Oh."

Fuxi sat on a simple stone bench, a bright smile on his face, and said, "Young man, I've wanted to meet you for a long time, and there's so much I want to say to you. Would you mind if we chatted for a bit?"

"can."

Ye Mingqiu replied.

Next, he will need to learn from Fuxi how to control the incantations of the gods, and obtain incantation materials from him. This will be very useful to him, and it won't be a problem to give him a little time to chat.

More importantly, this guy is a former high priest of the gods. He is a god, and his strength and knowledge should be very strong. Perhaps we can learn some techniques for using divine power from him, or other things.

For this reason, Ye Mingqiu's attitude towards him is currently relatively friendly.

"very good!"

Fuxi smiled and nodded, taking out two bright red fruits from the pocket beside him. He handed one to Ye Mingqiu and said, "You are indeed different from those ignorant and pedantic gods. Not only are you powerful, but you also have pioneering thinking. Someone like you is destined to be at odds with them."

"Ah."

Ye Mingqiu replied casually.

Compared to what Fuxi had just said, he was more concerned about what the fruit was, whether it could add attributes, and whether it had any special effects.

【Crimson Fruit】

Category: Spirit Fruit

Effect: After consumption, it can increase the energy limit; the higher the energy level, the smaller the increase.

Restriction: Only Tier 1 psychics can obtain the energy boost effect. If not consumed within three days after harvesting, the energy boost effect will disappear.

nice one!
This fruit increases the maximum energy level, not the maximum spiritual energy level. In other words, if you have special spiritual energy that is not spiritual energy, you can also increase the maximum energy level by eating this fruit. Its versatility far exceeds that of normal attribute-enhancing items.

However, the fruit itself is not the most valuable thing. The most valuable thing is actually the seed of the Crimson Fruit. If the seed can be brought back to the present world and cultivated by plant-type psionicists, it might be possible to directly create a Crimson Fruit tree and harvest Crimson Fruit regularly.

Most attribute-enhancing items in the real world come from the spirit world, but this "from the spirit world" comes in various forms. If the only sources were treasure chests and the spirit world shop, the price of attribute-enhancing items would definitely increase several times over.

True powerful forces, in order to have enough resources to cultivate talent, will inevitably occupy a large number of spiritual plants similar to the Crimson Fruit Tree, or other things that can reproduce attribute-enhancing items.

But
Cultivating spiritual plants of this level is incredibly difficult, and it's practically impossible for ordinary spiritualists to succeed.

Ye Mingqiu consumed the Zhu Hong fruit directly; it tasted sweet and refreshing, and was incredibly crisp and tender.

[Note: Successful use. Your base psionic power limit increased by 425, and your holy power limit increased by 142.]

There's been quite a significant improvement!

Ye Mingqiu put the fruit pit into his storage space and continued listening to Fuxi speak.

“Back in Chaoge City, I was already watching from afar. You are truly ruthless, daring to kill two great gods right in front of the heavens, and even killing another one after the heavens departed. Aren’t you afraid of the heavens? I admire you.” Fuxi said with a look of admiration.

"It's okay, he won't kill me."

Ye Mingqiu gave a calm reply.

He possesses a sense of hostility. If the black dragon becomes hostile towards him due to anger or rage, he can sense it immediately and escape from the world as quickly as possible.

Currently, the main quest has been completed, and Ye Mingqiu can choose to leave at any time. This world is relatively special, so there is no specific time limit for his return, and it is not a problem for him to stay for a longer period of time.

"Do you have the means to confirm this?"

"can."

"Can you predict the heavens' actions?"

"probably."

"Amazing, truly amazing."

Fuxi showed a shocked expression, and then continued to ask, "If that's the case, can you sense specific information about other gods?"

"It depends. I can only sense targets that are hostile to me," Ye Mingqiu replied.

After he killed the Protoss who were on a mission and killed the Protoss Holy King Tianwu, the Protoss's hostility towards him became relatively obvious, and he could also deduce the approximate location of the Protoss floating island based on the direction of their hostility.

To some extent, hostility perception is also a good way to locate unknown targets. By offending the other party in some way and making them hostile, one can directly lock onto the enemy's base through hostility and then defeat it in one fell swoop.

Extremely efficient
More importantly, while tracking only provides a one-day location, hostility perception can continuously detect hostility from the other party, making it more stable.

Ye Mingqiu himself felt strange. He was a magnanimous person who never held grudges, but his sense of hostility was ridiculously strong. Perhaps this was God's reward for his tolerance.

“If that’s the case, he shouldn’t have been hostile towards you that day. Even though you killed two great gods in Chaoge, he didn’t show any obvious hostility. Can I understand it that way?” Fuxi asked tentatively.

"Correct."

"I see."

Fuxi nodded slightly, and some images that his divine power of emptiness had predicted appeared in his mind. He arranged and combined the information in his mind, and finally said with a smile: "I understand. Heaven no longer cares about the survival of the gods. Now may be the best time to resist the rule of the gods."

"Well, before that, I'd like to ask you some questions about controlling divine power. I hope you can answer them for me."

"no problem."

Two hours later

Ye Mingqiu became increasingly adept at manipulating the power of the myriad phenomena, and his use of the power became more and more unrestrained. What's even more interesting is that this experience in manipulating high-intensity power seems to be applicable to divine power and demonic power as well.

[Hint: You have mastered the passive skill - Energy Tide]

Energy Tides (Passive)
Skill Rank: ★★★

Skill effect: Energy control precision increased by 30%, energy driving speed increased by 30%, and the intensity of controlled energy increased by 0.05.

Has the learned skill become passive? Fuxi's guidance is quite impressive, much better than the old Beast King's teaching. Although the old Beast King had excellent beasts and sufficient experience and wisdom, he was indeed lacking in education.

After all, he has the background of a beastman, so it's already quite good that he can teach people.

On the other side, Fuxi slowly wiped a few drops of cold sweat from his forehead, his heart filled with extreme shock. He had never seen a god who could learn so quickly. This guy didn't even understand the concept and nature of divine power at first, but he was able to master it in a short time.

monster!

This guy's talent is terrifying!
If I'm not mistaken, even the most talented person might not be able to match his abilities.

"Blood erosion".

"Ah."

"You must not have received any systematic learning and training before this, right?" Fuxi asked.

"Systematic learning"

After a brief moment of thought, Ye Mingqiu realized that he probably hadn't studied it.

After all, what was taught in school was too basic and he couldn't use it at all. What Tang Ruobing taught him was more focused on magic-based combat and less useful in close-quarters fighting. He basically learned his head-on fighting skills little by little through his own battles.

So he replied, "No, I gradually learned the skills in battle."

"Then you are really awesome."

Fuxi sighed, then asked, "By the way, why were you interested in Qi Refining before? In Chaoge, you seemed to have asked the Great Swordsman about Qi Refining." "Yes, I wanted to learn it and try it out, but Qi Refining doesn't seem to suit me, I can't learn it."

Ye Mingqiu raised his hand and tried to absorb the Qi of the surrounding world into his body through his Mind's Eye, but he was unable to do so.

Fuxi smiled broadly, and he also used his mind's eye to sense the Qi, but he successfully absorbed the power of the Qi into his body and forged it into a moon-white crystal with flowing golden light.

Without a doubt, that is Qi Refining!
"Aren't you a god? How can you cultivate Qi Refining? How did you do that?" Ye Mingqiu asked in shock.

"Hahaha!"

Fuxi immediately burst into laughter and said, "The art of refining qi originated from the gods. In the ancient books of the gods, there is a profound ancient method called 'Initial Explanation of Spiritual Energy,' which can replenish oneself and aid in healing by absorbing the qi of heaven and earth."

"Later, I saw that there was still room for further development of the techniques in this ancient book, so I further transformed it into four steps: breathing, crystallization, shaping, and external release, which evolved into the current Qi Refining Technique. I inscribed it in the Thousand Stele Forest so that the human race could learn it."

"What? Qi Refining originated from the gods, so why don't any gods learn it? It's all humans who use it, and I really can't learn or master Qi Refining. What's going on? Is there a special step involved that requires clearing out the divine power in one's body?" Ye Mingqiu muttered to himself.

“Good understanding!”

Fuxi clapped his hands in praise, and then continued, "Your idea is correct. To master the Qi Refining Technique, one must indeed empty the divine power within the body. Only in this way can a channel for receiving Qi be established, and thus master the Qi Refining Technique."

"As for why no one is learning it, there are actually multiple factors. First, it is more difficult for the gods to learn Qi Refining after emptying their divine power than for humans, so few people are willing to learn it. Second, the gods themselves possess divine power, which is more convenient to use than Qi Refining, so many gods prefer to cultivate divine power and divine skills rather than master Qi Refining techniques."

Fuxi's expression gradually changed, and his eyes began to look playful. Finally, he said sarcastically, "The third reason is that many gods look down on Qi cultivation, believing that it is a low-level skill that only humans would learn. Gods are high and mighty, and learning such a thing would be demeaning to themselves."

"I see."

Ye Mingqiu nodded slowly, having roughly understood everything.

At this moment, he had already begun to be curious about the Qi Refining Technique and the contents of "Initial Explanation of Spiritual Energy," since the basic energy he possessed was spiritual energy, which was the most basic energy that could be transformed into various forms and attributes.

Psychic energy possesses extremely high potential. With proper development, it can evolve into various types of energy. Psychic users can change their physical constitution to evolve their psychic energy, thereby transforming it into other energies with higher basic strength.

However, once they undergo evolution, they can no longer possess the most basic psychic energy. Although psychic energy is not very strong, it represents infinite possibilities. When their physique changes and their psychic energy evolves, this possibility is realized. The realized future cannot be returned to the past.

"Psionic Primer" is a method for absorbing the energy of heaven and earth, but in reality, it may involve techniques for refining and transforming the energy of heaven and earth, which are very useful for psionicists.

The techniques of refining Qi are also likely applicable to spiritual energy, and the effects are estimated to be quite good. This technique originated from Fuxi in the world of Investiture of the Gods, and is extremely rare; it is estimated that most people would have very little chance of learning it.

And even if you learn it, you might not be able to master it!

"Do you want to learn?"

"think."

“Then I’ll teach you a little, but before I do, I hope you can grant me one request, okay?” Fuxi asked with a smile.

"What conditions?"

“Unless the humans and members of the Hidden Gods tribe provoke you, please do not attack them, okay?” Fuxi continued.

"it is good."

Ye Mingqiu nodded in agreement, his attitude quick and decisive, his eyes clear as a mirror, as if he had only agreed to a trivial matter.

He was just an ordinary psychic, and there was no benefit to him from indiscriminately killing members of the Hidden Gods and ordinary people. There was no need for him to do such a thing, and agreeing to Fuxi's request was not a problem at all. It was not even a condition for him.

"Alright, I'll explain it briefly."

Half a day later

"Condensation!"

Ye Mingqiu successfully condensed the Qi Refining Crystal in his hand, and a smile finally appeared on his face. Although the Qi Refining Technique was difficult to cultivate, he had managed to master it after spending half a day.

On the other side, Fuxi's expression turned into utter bewilderment and shock.

[Hint: You have mastered the skill - Qi Refining]

Qi Refining (Passive)
Rank: None
Effect: Through special techniques, one can refine the energy of heaven and earth and incorporate it into one's own body.

The passive skill has no quality, and its strength seems to fluctuate quite a bit. Perhaps it will produce different effects depending on the difference in the world's energy?
In some worlds, the energy of heaven and earth is abundant, and absorbing it can yield considerable benefits. However, in other worlds, the energy of heaven and earth is relatively barren, and even if absorbed, it will not provide any effective gains, making it of little significance.

However, Ye Mingqiu has a unique advantage that others don't have: his resistance to abnormal statuses is extremely high.

What's the use of this advantage?
The answer is, I don't pick!

Sometimes, the energy of heaven and earth in certain worlds can be polluted by special forces, becoming tainted with negative auras such as curses, destruction, plagues, and madness. This kind of energy must never be absorbed, otherwise it will implicate oneself.

Ye Mingqiu, on the other hand, can do so because he has extremely high resistance to abnormal states and is not afraid of these negative states at all, which is also a good advantage.

Thank you for your guidance.

Ye Mingqiu bowed politely and said.

To put it bluntly, Fuxi's one day of professional guidance has at least doubled his current strength. Originally, although he possessed divine power, he was not good at using it and mostly used his talent to enhance weapon enchantments.

Simply put, he possesses terrifying mana and extremely high energy, but lacks a skill set, making it impossible for him to fully utilize this power.

After all, he wasn't familiar with divine power, so he couldn't very well use it to unleash psionic spells during battle, could he?
This is practically like firing a missile with a bow and arrow!

Ye Mingqiu's strategy is to use basic attacks as his ultimate move. In high-intensity battles, it's better not to use ordinary skills at all, as it's a waste of time and energy.

Now, he has obtained a powerful force that does not belong to him, but unfortunately, divine power only exists in the world of Fengshenji. Once outside this world, he will no longer possess this powerful force.

What a shame!

"You're welcome, you're welcome."

Fuxi quickly said, to be honest, he used to think he was a genius, and even considered exceptionally talented among the gods, but ever since he witnessed Ye Mingqiu's talent, he has become quite insecure and even feels a bit inferior.

"You're too kind. I have some questions about the divine incantations that I'd like to ask you."

"Although I would like to continue to provide guidance, the Hidden Gods cannot be away from me for too long, otherwise there may be danger and they may be discovered by the gods." Fuxi's face showed difficulty, and he prepared to slip away.

“Then I’ll go with you. As many of the gods come, I’ll kill them all.”

Ye Mingqiu's eyes turned slightly cold. Anyone who dared to disturb his studies, even a god, would die.

"Oh! This is so embarrassing!"

Fuxi sighed and looked at Ye Mingqiu with difficulty, saying, "You are the Bloodthirsty Tyrant. Although you are being hunted by the gods along with us, you are powerful and a small target. As long as you are willing to hide, the gods will not be able to catch you. There is no need for you to go to the Hidden Gods Tribe and take risks with us."

"Is this considered an adventure?"

"Uh?"

Fuxi looked at him with "surprise".

Then, Ye Mingqiu grinned, revealing an extremely confident smile, and said, "Right now, I feel terrifyingly strong. Ordinary Saint Kings might not be able to do anything to me, and I can easily kill those weaker than Heavenly Martial."

"Hey!"

Fuxi sighed, knowing he couldn't persuade him anymore, so he said, "Alright then, you come with me to the Hidden Gods Tribe. I can guide you on the relevant knowledge along the way, and you don't need to feel guilty about it. After all, it's also a very interesting thing for me."

"Ah."

Ye Mingqiu didn't expose him. After all, it wasn't good to talk about how he felt his self-esteem had been hurt. He still needed to learn more knowledge and skills from Fuxi, and he couldn't afford to offend him.

The Hidden Gods Department
He was also very curious about what the Hidden God Tribe, which was being hunted by the gods, would be like, what the gods inside looked like, and whether he could gain anything new from the Hidden God Tribe.

As for Fuxi's purpose, he didn't really care, since the other party could genuinely teach him and make him stronger.

Exchanging protection for knowledge is essentially a form of equivalent exchange, which is fair.
