When Su Susu returned to the shop, she was still trying to ignore the Wood Spirit girl. However, she couldn't hold it in for long. The Wood Spirit girl was just too cute and obedient. After a busy day of business, the two of them had become good sisters.
Interestingly, when Du Feng went back to his room to practice, the two of them chatted endlessly. Through their conversation, Su Susu learned about the relationship between the Wood Spirit girl and Du Feng. So she was the one who appeared later. It seemed like there was a misunderstanding before.
The two sisters chatted until three o 'clock in the morning, when the Wood Spirit girl was called away by Du Feng. Starting at three o 'clock, the energy in the underground immortal veins would turn into wood elemental energy, which would be of great help to her. She could use this opportunity to enter the training room to improve her Cultivation.
On the third day of business, Du Feng decided not to go out at all. Since there weren't that many customers, he prepared some goods and left the rest to Su Susu. The Wood Spirit girl didn't like to stay outside, so she turned back into a tattoo and stayed where she used to be.
This time, Du Feng didn't focus on running the shop. He practiced in his room. He didn't come out of the training room until the shop was closed.
"Where's Sister Ling 'er? Isn't she eating with us?"
Su Susu immediately regretted asking the question. She already knew the answer. Wood Spirits were not humans, they were wood elves and didn't need to eat.
"Fine, I didn't say anything."
Su Susu stuck out her tongue mischievously.
"I'm going into seclusion tomorrow. Be careful."
After only three days of business, Du Feng was going into seclusion. He found a few techniques that suited him in the jade scroll left behind by the old man. This included a sword technique and a body-tempering cultivation technique. This physique tempering technique wasn't displayed outside, but in the bedroom. If he hadn't found it, he wouldn't have found it.
If it was just a normal physique tempering technique, Du Feng wouldn't have been so secretive. The key problem was that this Physique Tempering Technique was not the usual Physique Tempering Technique of human warriors, but the Innate Skill of the Dragons.
Could it be that the old man was actually a member of the Dragons, or that he came from the Dragon World? That was why he didn't even leave the shop in a hurry during the big inspection in Season City. Moreover, the old man had been particularly kind to Du Feng the first time he met him. All the signs pointed to this possibility.
After all, Du Feng had practiced the Heavenly Golden Dragon Body before, so it was normal for the old man to have a good impression of him. In the vast Heavenly Realm, it would be difficult to find a fellow Dragons. Otherwise, why would he leave behind a Body Tempering Technique of the Dragons? Was he not afraid of being discovered by others?
Of course, Du Feng would not be stupid enough to report the old man. He crushed the Jade Slip and learned the cultivation method inside, which also destroyed the evidence. This Dragons cultivation method was called the Golden Scale Protection Technique. It sounded quite ordinary, but it didn't seem to be as powerful as the Heavenly Golden Dragon Body.
In fact, the Heavenly Golden Dragon Body was only a cultivation method of the Dragons in the Lower Realm. However, the Golden Scale Protection Technique was an authentic cultivation method from the Dragon World. The Heavenly Golden Dragon Body was divided into nine levels, and it was the end of it after practicing it. The Golden Scale Protection Technique was different, and its levels could be said to be endless. The extent to which one could practice it depended entirely on one's comprehension and perseverance.
The Golden Scale Protection Technique meant that one had to cultivate golden scales to protect their body. The more golden scales there were, the stronger the defense power. This golden scale could also be big or small. It could be stuck to one's body like a sesame seed, or it could be used as a shield to block in front.
The defense power of a golden scale was about the same as a spiritual shield, and it was a low-grade spiritual weapon. However, one shouldn't underestimate this cultivation method. When two golden scales were stacked together, they could have the defense power of a middle-grade spiritual weapon. When four golden scales were stacked together, it was equivalent to having a shield of a high-grade spiritual weapon.
So on and so forth, when eight golden scales were stacked together, the defense power would be equivalent to a shield of a low-grade inborn spiritual weapon. Of course, this was referring to stacking them together. It definitely wouldn't work if they were spread flat. In short, the more golden scales there were, the stronger the defense power would be.
To put it bluntly, this kind of protection technique was a cultivation method that strengthened the surface. As long as the surface wasn't broken, the inside wouldn't be hurt. The advantage was that it had high defense power and the potential for advancement. However, there was also a disadvantage, which was that it couldn't improve physical strength while enhancing the defense power. It was a cultivation method that purely enhanced the surface defense power.
Interesting. Du Feng sat in the practice room. He wasn't in a hurry to study the key points of the swordsmanship. Instead, he focused his attention on the protection technique. It was indeed a cultivation method from the Dragon World. It was really special. With the help of Du Tulong, he adjusted himself into the state of Dragons and began to practice. It didn't take long for the first golden scale to appear.
This was the unique characteristic of the Golden Scales Protection Technique. The cultivation method at the beginning was easy, but the further one practiced, the harder it would be. Moreover, the degree of difficulty would increase exponentially. The first golden scale appeared in the middle of the chest. It was even smaller than a sesame seed. If one didn't look closely, they wouldn't be able to see it.
With a thought from Du Feng, the golden scale became the size of a palm. With another thought, the golden scale circled from the chest to the back. In other words, the golden scale could appear at any part of the body at any time according to the owner's thoughts. Moreover, it could change its size freely.
For example, if someone slashed at you from the front, the golden scale would appear in front of you to block the blade. However, if someone stabbed you from the back, it could also appear behind you to block the blade. The smaller the area that was attacked, the smaller it would become because it would be thicker and sturdier. If it was slashed by a blade, it would turn into a bar shield for defense. If it was stabbed by a sword, it would turn into a round shield that was only slightly larger than the tip of a sword. In short, it would exert the strongest defense power.
Interesting. The more Du Feng thought about it, the more interesting he found it. This Golden Scales Protection Technique didn't look like much at first glance, but when he thought about it carefully, it was really amazing. In other words, as long as he was within the defense of the golden scale, he wouldn't have to be afraid of anyone's sneak attack. Even if he didn't have time to turn around or dodge, with just a thought, it could block any part of his body and block all kinds of sneak attacks.
Tsk, tsk, tsk … The level of this cultivation method must be very high. The old man really worked hard. This Golden Scales Protection Technique had many uses, but it just so happened that it could be practiced from the first level of the Heaven Realm and could always be used after that. Du Feng definitely wouldn't believe that the old man didn't leave it behind on purpose.
