Chapter 40 - Chapter 40: Flight Spirit Ability

"A flight Spirit Ability?"

"This has certainly exceeded my expectations."

Jin Mian was somewhat surprised.

Originally, he only wanted to obtain a Spirit Ability that would increase his speed.

This was to make up for his shortcomings in speed, but he hadn't expected to end up with a flight Spirit Ability.

"Let me test out this flight Spirit Ability." The spirit power within Jin Mian's body began to circulate rapidly: "Fourth Spirit Ability, Wings of Light!"

As his voice fell.

A faint golden shimmer appeared on his back.

The points of light gradually converged into a pair of magnificent golden wings.

As the wings flapped.

Jin Mian's feet slowly left the ground, and he floated in mid-air.

However, because it was his first time flying, Jin Mian was not yet familiar with this Spirit Ability.

He was not very skilled at controlling his sense of direction.

Just as he was about to fly towards a pool of water, his wings went out of control.

His entire being turned into a stream of golden light, and he crashed rapidly into a giant boulder.

Bang!

"Ah!"

A scream rang out.

Jin Mian crashed solidly into the rock.

"A flight Spirit Ability? You've got quite the luck, kid."

"However, if you want to achieve free flight, you'll need to practice much more."

Jin E pulled Jin Mian out from where he was embedded in the rock and spoke.

Apart from those with flight-type Martial Souls.

If an ordinary Soul Master wants to achieve flight, their level must be at the rank of a level 70 Spirit Saint or above.

Only through the external release of spirit power can the ability to fly be achieved.

But flight consumes an enormous amount of spirit power; even a Spirit Saint would find it difficult to maintain for a long time.

Furthermore, they cannot fly too high.

Otherwise, once their spirit power is exhausted, they would fall from a high altitude and be injured.

Only upon reaching the rank of Titled Douluo can one fly for long periods and ignore fall damage.

Jin Mian rubbed the large bump on his forehead: "Practice makes perfect. I'll master this Spirit Ability soon... Hiss... that hurts."

With his current physical strength.

Ordinary impacts wouldn't easily cause him injury.

But this fourth Spirit Ability was extraordinary.

Not only could it allow flight, but upon activation, his own speed would be increased tenfold!

It was precisely the impact of this tenfold speed that caused him to be injured by accident.

Additionally, this Spirit Ability had a passive effect—Illumination.

It could dispel all control effects currently affecting him.

Suddenly, a mass of purple light surrounded Jin Mian's body.

The large bump on his forehead from the crash gradually shrank and finally disappeared.

Turning his head to look.

He found that Ye Lingling had summoned the Nine Star Begonia to heal him.

"Brother Jin Mian, does it still hurt?" Ye Lingling asked with concern, holding the Nine Star Begonia in both hands.

Because she had absorbed two Immortal Herbs, the qiluo begonia and the eight petal immortal orchid.

The quality of her Nine Star Begonia Martial Soul had skyrocketed.

Furthermore, her second Soul Ring was of the thousand-year level.

Therefore, Ye Lingling's current healing ability far surpassed what it was in the original story.

Jin Mian replied with a smile: "Thanks, Lingling. I'm fine now."

"Once I've mastered my fourth Spirit Ability, I'll take you flying."

Ye Lingling withdrew her Martial Soul and gave a bright smile: "Alright."

Nearby, Ye Susu saw the look in her daughter's eyes as she watched Jin Mian; it felt strange, yet she couldn't quite put her finger on it.

Jin E saw that it was about time and said: "This place is not suitable for a long stay. Let's leave quickly."

The four of them followed the direction they came from.

They returned to the outer perimeter of the Star Dou Great Forest.

Unexpectedly, just as they stepped out of a patch of woods.

They heard human voices.

"Seven Treasures turn and produce the Glazed Tile. Seven Treasures have a name. Seventh: Martial Soul True Body!"

A massive seven-layered Glazed Tile Pagoda appeared within the woods.

The voice rose again: "Seven Treasures have a name. Fifth: Attack!"

Hearing the familiar incantation.

Jin Mian immediately understood who it was.

These familiar slogans could belong to no one else but the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.

"This voice... it's the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's Sect Master, Ning Fengzhi!"

Ye Susu also instantly recognized the person who had spoken.

After all, the Nine Star Begonia Sect and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School were both famous support system Martial Souls in the Spirit Master's world.

The two sides naturally had some interactions.

"Come, let's go take a look." Jin Mian's curiosity was piqued.

But when he looked at Ye Susu and Ye Lingling.

He paused for a moment.

The matter of the Nine Star Begonia Sect joining Spirit Hall.

Had not been disclosed yet.

If Ning Fengzhi were to see this mother and daughter staying with people from Spirit Hall.

With his intelligence, he would certainly be able to guess most of the truth.

By then, this information would surely be spread everywhere.

After some thought.

He changed his mind: "Forget it, we should leave first."

But just as they were about to leave, they heard another voice.

"Leaving won't be that easy!"

"Leave your names."

A sharp sword qi shot out from the woods.

Jin E raised a finger and easily dissipated the sword qi.

Seeing that they had been discovered, Jin Mian quickly took out two sets of large cloaks and masks from his spirit tool and handed them to Ye Susu and Ye Lingling.

"Quick, disguise yourselves first."

"The matter of the Nine Star Begonia Sect joining Spirit Hall cannot be known by outsiders for the time being."

Ye Susu nodded.

She took the cloak and mask and quickly disguised herself.

Jin Mian helped Ye Lingling put on her cloak and mask.

The next moment.

There was movement from the jungle.

The first to emerge was a four-foot-long sword, entirely silver in color, carrying a powerful killing intent.

An old man with a head full of white hair but the face of an infant slowly descended from the air.

They were surrounded by people dressed in white and wearing masks.

Then, a middle-aged man dressed in luxurious clothes, holding a Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda in one hand and a cane in the other, walked out.

He was none other than Ning Fengzhi.

And that sword-wielding old man was one of the two great Guardian Douluos of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School—Sword Douluo Chen Xin!

The reason they were here was that they were leading the sect's disciples to hunt for Soul Rings.

"Who are you people? Why are you outside our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's camp?"

Ning Fengzhi scanned the few people before him.

Jin Mian said: "We have just finished hunting for Soul Rings and happened to pass by here on our way back. If there's nothing else, we'll take our leave."

He was right; it really was a coincidence.

Who would have thought they would run into the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School on their way back?

Besides, they hadn't peeked and hadn't approached.

How were they supposed to know this was the outskirts of their camp?

Although that was indeed the case.

The shrewd Ning Fengzhi would not think it was that simple.

"A coincidence?"

"In the vast Star Dou Great Forest, you just happened to pass by my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's camp?"

"That is a bit too coincidental."

"We happen to have a few extra tents in our camp. Why don't you stay as our guests?"

Jin Mian smiled faintly.

This Ning Fengzhi was indeed a shrewd person.

He was overthinking a simple accidental encounter.

He refused directly: "We don't have that much time. Move aside and don't block the way."

"You can leave, but tell me your origins and who sent you?" Ning Fengzhi pressed further.

Jin Mian was speechless at this: "I already said, it was purely a chance encounter."

Seeing their attitude was so firm.

Ning Fengzhi's expression changed: "In that case, I'll have to take you back by force."

"Take them!"

At his word.

The surrounding Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School disciples began to move forward.

Seeing that a battle was unavoidable.

After instructing Ye Susu and Ye Lingling not to take action no matter what.

Jin Mian stretched his limbs: "I already said it was a coincidence. Why must we resort to violence?"
