Chapter 1749 - 1734: The Flaw of the Strong Wind Spirit Essence Pearl

Ye Zhen’s divine sense sank into the incomplete Strong Wind Spirit Essence Pearl, and an inexplicable coolness filled Ye Zhen’s Spirit Palace.

This surprised Ye Zhen, as it was the first time encountering such a phenomenon.

Carefully sensing, Ye Zhen discovered it was wind!

With the help of the incomplete Strong Wind Spirit Essence Pearl, the elusive wind from all directions in the heavens had unexpectedly resonated with Ye Zhen’s Divine Soul Waves.

Like breathing, as Ye Zhen’s Divine Soul Power breathed, the invisible wind around him rose and fell in sync with Ye Zhen’s breathing rhythm.

In an instant, the omnipresent Wind Spirit Power seemed to become a part of Ye Zhen’s body.

Ye Zhen felt that with just a thought, the wind around him would surge according to his will.

"Is this the innate divine ability of the Ancient Fierce Beast Strong Wind?"

As Ye Zhen finely sensed, wind element Dao Marks containing countless mysteries flashed before him; these contained the essence and control over wind power by the Ancient Fierce Beast.

Ordinarily, even if these precious wind element Dao Marks and Power of Laws were laid before Ye Zhen, he couldn’t comprehend a bit, no matter how hard he thought.

It was like suddenly seeing a language of another race, incomprehensible no matter how you look.

But inside the Mirage Dragon Pearl, the incomplete Strong Wind Spirit Essence Pearl acted like a proficient translator of two languages, translating Ye Zhen’s complex meanings with perfect accuracy.

The feeling was akin to receiving the most standard answers during exams.

Ye Zhen might not understand or comprehend it, but he could use it, and that was quite useful!

It was almost like cheating; when Ye Zhen’s divine sense sank into the Strong Wind Spirit Essence Pearl, he could wield Feng Kui’s inherited power from his bloodline and a lifetime’s experience with Wind Spirit Power.

In an instant, Ye Zhen felt like immediately traversing in this omnipresent Wind Spirit Power. But the next moment, his expression turned peculiar and uncomfortable.

What does it feel like when you’re only given half of the standard answers during exams?

When enjoying and feeling thrilled, suddenly you’re interrupted, what does that feel like?

After holding it in for a long time, finally getting a chance to release, and then abruptly pulling back, what does that feel like?

However uncomfortable those feelings are, Ye Zhen was feeling just as uncomfortable now.

It was truly unpleasant.

Yet, Ye Zhen could only smile wryly, perhaps this was due to the incompleteness of the Strong Wind Soul Essence Pearl.

As for why after successfully slaying Feng Kui, who advanced to become the Ancient Fierce Beast Strong Wind, he still ended up with an incomplete Soul Essence Pearl, Ye Zhen could speculate a few reasons.

Firstly, it might be that the Great Saint of the Tempest, Feng Kui, hadn’t fully evolved into the complete Ancient Fierce Beast Strong Wind when he was killed by Ye Zhen and the others.

Secondly, maybe Feng Kui wasn’t defeated by Ye Zhen single-handedly but was taken down with the combined efforts of over ten experts; Ye Zhen merely delivered the final blow.

Additionally, perhaps due to Feng Kui’s internal organs being largely eaten by Cloud Winged Tiger King Kitten and the Nine-Headed Beast, the Mirage Dragon Pearl absorbed less power.

Ye Zhen believed these reasons might all be a factor.

However, if given the chance again, Ye Zhen would still create the same battle opportunity, allowing the kitten and the Nine-Headed Beast to critically wound Feng Kui from within.

After all, under such circumstances, Feng Kui’s power was constantly improving and recovering due to his bloodline; if it dragged on any longer without creating a fatal opportunity, perhaps Ye Zhen’s group would have been the ones to perish.

Taking a deep breath, Ye Zhen brushed aside the uncomfortable feeling brought by the incomplete Strong Wind Spirit Essence Pearl and once again immersed his divine sense into the Strong Wind Spirit Essence Pearl.

Ye Zhen wanted to test what tangible benefits the incomplete Strong Wind Spirit Essence Pearl brought him.

With a move of his divine sense, following the myriad of mysterious senses from the Strong Wind Spirit Essence Pearl, he urged his divine sense, and instantly his figure shifted.

In that instant, Ye Zhen only felt the wind whistling around him, and his movement was exponentially lighter than any of his previous flights.

It was as if he hardly exerted any effort to accomplish it.

Turning around, he saw Ling Qianbi at the periphery, staring at him with an incredulous expression.

"Uh, what’s the matter?"

"Master... Master, your speed just now?" Ling Qianbi’s voice was somewhat stuttered.

Ye Zhen was puzzled, "Did my speed just now seem fast?" Ye Zhen himself felt no particular sensation.

Ling Qianbi was speechless upon hearing this and was at a loss for words.

At this moment, the voice of the Great Saint of Jinghai, who was the least injured among the Sky Wing Three Saints, sounded, "Fast? It’s beyond fast! Your speed just now couldn’t be described merely as quick.

It’s like instant.

No, it’s even faster than instant.

It seemed like in the blink of an eye, in an instant, you appeared there. My eye power couldn’t even catch your movement."

"Big brother’s eye power couldn’t catch it?"

This shocked even Ye Zhen.

"Yes, Master, it was just like the previous Great Saint of the Tempest Feng Kui; it seems you swept past and appeared there without clarity on your actions."

Hearing this, Ye Zhen’s heart was overjoyed.

It seemed he obtained the speed talent of the Strong Wind from the incomplete Soul Essence Pearl, which was expected as it’s the core innate divine ability of the Ancient Fierce Beast Strong Wind.

However, the extent of the speed talent acquired from Strong Wind needed thorough testing by Ye Zhen.

Subsequently, Ye Zhen compared speed with the Great Saint of Jinghai, Ling Qianbi, and Cloud Winged Tiger King Kitten to make accurate judgments.

After only a few tests, Ye Zhen’s face showed uncontrollable joy.

Fast!

Truly extraordinarily fast!

When harnessing the power of the incomplete Strong Wind Spirit Essence Pearl, Ye Zhen’s speed was dozens of times faster than before.

Within a distance of ten miles, Ye Zhen could cover it ten times back and forth while Ling Qianbi, who had breakthrough cultivation at the Realm King Realm, could only make one round trip; Great Saint of Jinghai couldn’t even complete one.

Moreover, Ye Zhen had just begun utilizing the power of the Strong Wind Spirit Essence Pearl, without fully exerting it. It’s believed that with more practice and full exertion, Ye Zhen’s speed would be even faster.

What’s more exhilarating for Ye Zhen was that during the third attempt, his initial speed surpassed that of the kitten flying at full effort by half a notch.

This thrilled Ye Zhen immensely.

As the kitten’s current speed is quicker than most Dao Realm Experts.

Yet Ye Zhen was faster than the kitten!

In the martial arts world, it’s often said that nothing can overcome speed.

Though not absolute against powerful beings with innate divine abilities, Ye Zhen’s group previously was helpless against Feng Kui chasing them. They relied on the kitten for escape, simply because Feng Kui’s speed was too fast.

Now, Ye Zhen’s speed was twice as fast as the kitten’s full flight speed.

Based on Ye Zhen’s combat experience, using the power of the incomplete Strong Wind Spirit Essence Pearl skillfully could exponentially enhance Ye Zhen’s combat power.

Moreover, this speed would gradually increase with Ye Zhen’s cultivation, rendering its value immeasurable.

Ye Zhen tested it, and if the kitten didn’t use its Void-Breaking innate divine ability to teleport thousands of miles instantly, it wouldn’t catch up with Ye Zhen.

However, subsequently, Ye Zhen realized this certainty was only within a limited range.

Through multiple speed comparisons between Ye Zhen and Cloud Winged Tiger King Kitten, Ye Zhen suddenly discovered the true flaw of the incomplete Strong Wind Spirit Essence Pearl!

It remains a flaw that cannot be compensated!
