Chapter 949: Reciprocate
Tong Yunshu gave Yang Fei a glance and said, "Yang Fei, can I tell Master the method of instant teleportation?"
Yang Fei immediately responded, "Of course you can. As long as everyone is willing to learn, I think it can be taught. Our current cultivation environment and habits on the Divine Continent must start changing with our generation. There's no need to keep treasures to ourselves; we should teach whatever we have and not fear others learning it. We should only worry they can't learn. Only then can the cultivation world rise again."
Zhuge Cang was moved by their sincerity and honesty, yet he opened his mouth, wanting to remind them that teachings should not be lightly passed.
But in the end, he held back.
Perhaps Yang Fei is right.
Because teachings are not lightly passed, the cultivation world has become increasingly declining, and many powerful divine skills have been completely lost.
If cultivators all over the world could freely choose from various cultivation techniques and secret manuals, it's feared that many divine skills wouldn't be so easily lost.
Like Rune Tao.
The Rune Tao and formation techniques of the Zhuge family have been preserved most completely by the Hidden Sect. Passed to me, I am a Rune Tao genius seen once in hundreds of years, yet I have still not been able to promote Rune Tao.
If I were to follow the ancestral rules of not lightly passing or passing teachings outside, then I shouldn't teach Rune Tao knowledge to geniuses like Tong Yunshu and Yang Fei.
In such a case, how would Rune Tao develop?
On the contrary, now I'm giving them everything, and Tong Yunshu's talent in Rune Tao is extraordinary. Given time, it will surely flourish, and when she fully grows, she can support the Zhuge family in return.
Just as he was pondering, Tong Yunshu told him the characters aiding instant teleportation.
Zhuge Cang's eyes lit up after listening, he tapped his forehead and bitterly smiled, "I've long been able to pronounce these two runes and know they are related to space rules, yet I never thought to read them combined."
To support our work, please read on M|V|LE_MPYR.
Tong Yunshu eagerly said, "Master, please try."
Zhuge Cang nodded, "Since I can pronounce them, naturally I can teleport."
Saying that, he walked outside.
Yang Fei and Tong Yunshu followed him, both expectant and nervous.
Tong Yunshu anticipated Zhuge Cang's teleportation.
Yang Fei, however, was a bit nervous, worrying this guy might just run off after teleporting.
But even if he could teleport, it wouldn't be fast enough; within this Cloud Mist Mountain Array, he couldn't escape.
Zhuge Cang had no idea that despite Yang Fei's sincere honesty, he was still being guarded against.
Even if he knew, he would only feel uncomfortable but wouldn't truly blame him.
After all, they used to be mortal enemies; if he were Yang Fei, he'd also be wary.
Zhuge Cang concentrated and gathered Protective Gang Qi outside his body, preparing fully, then he uttered two obscure and ancient rune pronunciations.
As those two runes were spoken by Zhuge Cang, the void around him surged instantly, an invisible vortex formed suddenly and swallowed his body, making him vanish.
Almost simultaneously, twenty meters ahead, the void hummed in a tremor, and Zhuge Cang appeared.
Tong Yunshu exclaimed happily, "Master, you succeeded!"
Zhuge Cang felt a ringing in his ears and his mind still lingered on those indescribably complex scenes as he traversed the space barrier passages.
Hearing Tong Yunshu's exclamation, he hurriedly turned back and saw himself twenty meters away from Yang Fei and Tong Yunshu.
His precious disciple jumped up in surprise, while Yang Fei was staring at him in shock.
Did it happen?
In an instant, he crossed twenty meters, teleported?
Zhuge Cang's heart fluttered, and he spoke those two runes again.
The next moment, he appeared beside Yang Fei and Tong Yunshu.
"Hahahaha..."
Zhuge Cang laughed wildly to the sky.
Unexpectedly, in his life, Zhuge Cang, without the Godspeed Talisman, relying solely on the understanding and mastery of Rune Tao, achieved short-distance instant teleportation.
This is a divine skill that transcends spatial rules and barriers.
If he had had this divine skill earlier, and if the teleportation distance were longer, who could rival Zhuge Cang across the world?
If I want to kill anyone, I could ambush and obliterate them instantly. How many people in the world could defend such an instant teleportation ambush?
Though relying on the Godspeed Talisman allows longer teleportation distance, that method gives enemies time to prepare with every use; whereas saying those two runes aloud allows instant teleportation harder to defend against.
Yang Fei, having studied all night without fully grasping this rune-based teleportation method, felt enlightened seeing Zhuge Cang execute it twice.
Moments later, when Zhuge Cang calmed down, Yang Fei thought of the teleportation distance, a slight smile forming on his lips.
Though he can teleport, the distance is too short.
Much weaker than Tong Yunshu by more than half.
The only impressive thing is that multiple teleports didn't seem to subject Zhuge Cang to significant pressure from space power, his Physical Body still bearing it.
Firstly, it's because he used Protective Gang Qi and secondly, having cultivated for over a hundred years, his Physical Body Realm is far stronger than Tong Yunshu now, his defense is much higher.
Even, Yang Fei thinks it's also related to the teleportation distance crossing spatial channels, twenty meters of instant crossing should bear less spatial force pressure than fifty meters.
After trying twice, Zhuge Cang has completely grasped achieving 'following the order once spoken' to teleport through Rune Tao, elated beyond measure.
Seeing many people attracted by his laughter, Zhuge Cang restrained his mirth.
Yang Fei laughed, "Congratulations, senior, with such a method, combat will greatly enhance."
Zhuge Cang, suppressing his inner joy, nodded, "Indeed, it will enhance combat power. Didn't expect my disciple to return the favor so quickly, benefiting me greatly."
Tong Yunshu blushed at the praise.
Yang Fei said, "Later, we'll let Yun Shu establish a Talisman Dao Academy to specially teach Rune Tao arrays, cultivating numerous Rune Tao geniuses for our Divine Continent."
Zhuge Cang's eyes lit up.
In doing so, it's like founding a sect.
In the future, not only Tong Yunshu, but even the Zhuge family will be recorded in history by the new era.
Damn, this kid truly understands the old man's mind; just this Talisman Dao Academy ensures Zhuge Cang remains in their camp this lifetime.
"Zhuge Cang, why are you laughing hysterically?"
Just then, Huang Chengcheng approached.
Zhuge Cang's previous hysterical laughter alarmed many people, except for Huang Chengcheng, Hidden Sect's Mo Li, Chen Liangzhong, and Zuo Wenjun, all three came over in response.
Seeing Zhuge Cang, who should have been a prisoner, appearing there, the five were visibly shocked and astounded.
Mo Yunhai exclaimed, "Zhuge Cang, how... how can you be here?"
