The Spirit Transcendence Skill is a very important milestone for all Samurai, not just archers, but swordsmen as well.
Because only by mastering the Spirit Transcendence Skill can one lock onto a moving target with their spiritual power and then attack it accurately.
Many Martial Artists fail to complete the Spirit Transcendence Skill in their entire lives, so their martial achievements can never advance.
And this Spirit Transcendence Skill is entirely a test of spiritual talent.
If one’s talent is exceptionally high and coupled with good luck, it might be completed within half a month.
However, if the talent is high but luck is not on one’s side, it could take several months or even half a year to accomplish.
Yao Xing once said that Lanling’s spiritual talent is around 7.5, which is considered high, but definitely not top-notch.
Next, Ye Jingyu started to recite the Drifting Skill behind Lanling.
This Drifting Skill, like the Tranquility Mantra, consists of no specific words, resembling ethereal Sanskrit chants.
Moreover, it is infused with special energy that penetrates directly into the ears and into the mind.
Fueled by this special spiritual stimulant and listening to the Drifting Skill, which sounded like Sanskrit chants, Lanling felt his body becoming lighter and lighter, to the point where he almost couldn’t sense the presence of his body, as if his soul, his spirit, was about to exit his body.
However, time and time again, as he was about to transcend, it felt as though he was being pulled back by a thread, unable to truly drift away.
At that moment, Lanling, who was in the water, was always just a little bit short of achieving spiritual transcendence.
Every time his spiritual power tried to burst forth, he would find that another thread would immediately pull him back.
Moreover, after countless attempts, not only did it not get easier, but it became even more difficult.
As he gradually felt the presence of his body returning and the floating sensation fading, completing the Spirit Transcendence Skill became even more challenging.
Continuing this trend, it would only take longer and longer for him to complete the skill—perhaps three months, or even half a year.
By this time, Lanling felt the success was becoming more and more distant.
He immediately called out to Yao Xing in his mind, asking, “Do you have a way to let me achieve Spirit Transcendence immediately?”
Yao Xing replied, “Of course, I can.”
Lanling was astonished by its prompt and decisive answer.
Yao Xing said, “I am independent within your body and coexist with you, so my energy can guide your spirit out of your body.”
Lanling said, “That’s great, guide my spirit out right now.”
Yao Xing said, “Then, please let go of all your defenses, enter into the Inverted Moon Mantra, and focus wholeheartedly on the inverted moon in the water.”
Lanling did as instructed, concentrating all his spiritual power in one place, without any defense.
Yao Xing released a surge of dragon’s power, which combined with his spiritual power, and then guided it straight out through Lanling’s eyes.
In that instant, Lanling truly felt his soul transcending his body.
Immediately after, Lanling actually saw himself, face to face.
This would be impossible in reality unless there was a mirror in front of him. free𝑤ebnovel.com
At this moment, however, he wasn’t truly seeing himself but merely experiencing a mental impression, which then created a reflection in his brain, causing a visual illusion.
Yao Xing was indeed defying the heavens.
Just then, Lanling distinctly felt his dragon’s power rapidly depleting.
When the spiritual power was still within his body, the consumption of dragon’s power was not severe.
But once his spirit transcended, the consumption of dragon’s power multiplied.
This means that in the future, every time he locks onto a moving target, it will consume a vast amount of dragon’s power.
Therefore, for a powerful archer, every long-range spiritual lock could be equivalent to a critical hit.
In one day, there would only be three to five chances for such perfect accuracy.
However, this is only fair.
Otherwise, if a dragon archer could hit targets a kilometer away anytime and anywhere, what would be the point of a battlefield?
“Alright, your spiritual power should be exhausted.
Let’s stop here for today and continue tomorrow,” Ye Jingyu’s voice suddenly rang in his ear.
Then, he stood up out of the water.
Lanling followed suit and found that when he emerged, the sky was filled with stars, and it was already night.
Seeing Lanling’s weary spirit, Jingyu said, “Don’t be discouraged.
Completing the Spirit Transcendence Skill in half a month is the shortest time imaginable.
Two to three months, or even over half a year, are normal.
It’s a thing that depends on talent, but even more on chance.”
Lanling replied, “I’ve already succeeded.”
Jingyu’s beautiful eyes widened in shock as she exclaimed, “That’s impossible.
Even for someone with extremely high spiritual talent, it takes half a month, and that’s also very random, very lucky.”
Lanling said, “I really did succeed.
After transcending, the sight of myself was not a specific face but an outline, shimmering with faint golden light and a slight hint of purple.”
With those words, Jingyu knew that Lanling had indeed completed the Spirit Transcendence Skill.
Without actually experiencing it, one couldn’t describe the first sight of oneself after spirit transcendence.
“You really are a monster,” Jingyu said.
“The most difficult hurdle has been crossed.
Next, locking onto moving targets will be easier.
Get some sleep, we will continue training early tomorrow.”
