Chapter 14: Shadow Stealing Treasure, Nine Yang Divine Technique
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The shadow had been searching for more than two hours. It found a scripture named "Shurangama Sutra" and there was a chapter titled, Absolute Art, Nine Yang Divine Technique. Without wasting any time, the shadow immediately swallowed the scripture. A devouring sound could be heard.
"Plop!"
The Shaolin monks were immediately alerted. They unlocked the door and charged in. All the monks wore yellow robes and were holding sticks. Their eyes were fierce as they searched every corner of the room.
However, they were too late. The shadow summoned a void and escaped. It had already returned to Qin Feng's old mansion.
The Shaolin monks began to discuss among themselves.
"Is something missing?"
"No."
"Make sure to check everything."
"Senior brother, this Shurangama Sutra had fallen off the bookshelf. I think it's the source of the sound."
After searching, the group of monks concluded that no one had broken in. Nobody could leave without a single trace in just a few seconds. Moreover, nothing was lost.
The monks let out a slight sigh of relief. Regardless, they still double-checked before leaving. No one knew that a precious treasure had been stolen by a shadow.
...
When the shadow returned to Qin Feng's body, the system's notification could be heard in his head.
"Ding Dong! Your Shadow has stolen the martial arts world's most valuable treasure [ Nine Yang Divine Art ] from the Shaolin Temple."
"Ding Dong! You've gained experience points +1 (4/10)"
"After seven days, your shadow can steal treasures again!"
Qin Feng did not wake up after hearing the notification. He thought it was a dream.
The next morning, when Qin Feng opened his eyes, he found an ancient scroll beside his pillow. There were four small characters on it that looked like some kind of seal. At that moment, Qin Feng was shocked. Then, he remembered about last night's "dream"!
"What the f*ck? Is this the function of the master bedroom? A person's shadow will steal treasures for them if they sleep here? What happened to this house? I..."
Qin Feng was speechless. First, he got a spiritual fish from the Myriad World Pond. Then, the storeroom turned into an otherworldly dumpster. Now, his shadow could steal treasures. Everything about this house was a mystery. At the same time, Qin Feng looked forward to what would happen next. He had plenty of questions, but no answers. It would be good if he could level up and communicate with the system.
Anyway, Qin Feng spent some time thinking about the new function. Yesterday, he was desperate for more information about martial arts. Hence, the shadow chose to steal the scripture. The explanation was rather simple.
'Will the shadow steal according to my desires every time? Could it die? Where did it get this scripture?'
While he was speculating, a delivery van approached his house.
It was eight o'clock in the morning. The van came to drop off some basic martial arts equipment. Qin Feng trusted this delivery company, but he was still pleasantly surprised when they arrived so quickly. He moved everything to the courtyard. Then, he went to eat breakfast.
A martial artist needed to be well nourished. Skipping meals was not advisable. When practicing martial arts, a lot of energy would be consumed. If a person did not have enough, they would end up harming their body.
After finishing his breakfast, Qin Feng sat in the courtyard on an armchair and began reading the scripture.
Ten minutes later, he came to a conclusion! He did not understand anything! Learning a divine technique with just one glance? That was a lie told by most online novels!
This so-called divine technique was written in an ancient style. Qin Feng tried to decipher it, but he could only recognize four or five words. Clearly, that was not enough.
There was another problem. Even if he understood the content, he did not know the proper way to cultivate it. Therefore, after an agonizing ten minutes, he gave up! Shortly after, he felt depressed. This scripture was considered a treasure in the martial arts world. Not being able to learn the technique was regretful. Unfortunately, it was really impossible for him. At the moment, he was like a headless chicken without any leads.
After contemplating, Qin Feng decided not to give up completely. He kept trying to cultivate this technique.
Just like that, a day passed.
Today, Qin Feng gained one experience point. In total, he had five points. If he obtained something from the storeroom tomorrow, he would be able to obtain another point. Adding on the daily point, it would sum up to seven. Then, he only needed to sit still and wait for three more days to pass before the system would be ready for an upgrade.
Since Qin Feng had no idea how to cultivate the godly technique, he put aside the scripture temporarily. Besides, it was pointless for him to stay anxious.
At night, Qin Feng slept soundly in his bedroom.
