Chapter 40: Grand Displacement

Chapter 40: Chapter 40: Grand Displacement

Ayan Lee’s mockery was completely ignored by Wyatt Barnes.

"Esteemed customer, all the medicinal herbs you need are here, and the total cost of the rest of the herbs is 487 taels of USD..."

The pharmacist secured a batch of herbs and placed it on the counter, addressing Wyatt Barnes.

Before he could finish his sentence, Ayan Lee mocked him again, "As expected of a country bumpkin, even the herbs he buys are cheap. All these herbs are worth just 487 taels of silver, not even half the price of a tael of fifty-year-old blood spirit grass!"

Azael Lee didn’t join in the sarcasm, but a smirk appeared on his face nonetheless.

The pharmacist cast a disinterested glance at Ayan Lee, and then turning humbly to Wyatt Barnes, "Esteemed customer, as a token of gratitude for your trust in our store, we can take the 487 taels as a rounding down. You just need to pay for the fifty-year-old blood spirit grass."

Under the surprised gaze of Ayan Lee and Azael Lee,

"Manager, here are fifty thousand taels, please count it."

Wyatt Barnes pulled out a stack of thousand-tael bank notes, counted fifty of them, and handed them over.

"Yes, it’s fifty thousand taels, thank you very much! We look forward to your next visit."

Under the humble gaze of the manager, Barnes and the girl walked past the incredulous Azael Lee and Ayan Lee, leaving the pharmacy with a pile of herbs.

The two men’s eyes were frozen, their minds filled with shock.

They couldn’t believe what they had just witnessed.

Ayan Lee pinched his thigh, the intense pain indicating to him that he was not dreaming.

"Manager, was that fifty thousand taels for the blood spirit grass?"

Ayan Lee took a deep breath and asked the manager in disbelief.

"Correct, that esteemed customer bought five catties of fifty-year-old blood spirit grass."

The manager nodded.

Five catties!

Ayan Lee felt as if he had been struck by lightning.

Azael Lee’s face was also grim.

No wonder Wyatt Barnes dare call him stingy...

Indeed, in front of five catties of fifty-year-old blood spirit grass, not to mention the one tael of fifty-year-old blood spirit grass that he had promised to give to the girl, even the five taels of fifty-year-old blood spirit grass he had bought this time was nothing.

Spending five thousand taels to buy five taels of fifty-year-old blood spirit grass, the two people left the pharmacy.

"Ayan, are you sure he is really from a branch family?"

Azael Lee’s tone was somber.

Fifty thousand taels!

Even his father would have a hard time pulling out so much cash all at once.

"Azael, I’m sure he is from a branch family, but I can’t figure out how he could be so rich... Should I check with the branch family registration office?"

Ayan Lee was also puzzled.

"Well, it would be good to find out more about him. If he really is just from a branch family, this time, I want to get both the girl and the money!"

Azael Lee nodded, a greedy look flashed in his eyes.

He couldn’t help but think about the girl he had only met once...

This feeling was more intense than when he first laid eyes on Maya Lee!

Unfortunately, Maya Lee was too domineering and her strength was not inferior to his, she never took him seriously. After pursuing her for a while, he had no choice but to give up.

Now, regarding the girl he was interested in, as long as he could deal with Wyatt Barnes, everything would be smooth sailing.

And he might even get a substantial amount of wealth from Barnes.

With this wealth, he could make his strength grow at a faster pace. Maybe he could even get a brilliant result at the next family martial meet and win the rewards of his dreams.

Lee Family Mansion.

After returning, Wyatt Barnes was swamped with work.

Besides compounding the ’Seven Treasures Body Hardening Fluid’, he also needed to compound another medicinal fluid.

This fluid, named ’Blood Spirit Body Refining Fluid’.

Blood Spirit Body Refining Fluid is a body refining elixir that the Martial Emperor had researched himself, to aid in the training of defense martial techniques, it can achieve twice the result with half the effort.

Although the ’Blood Spirit Grass’ needed for Blood Spirit Body Refining Fluid can be taken directly to improve the speed of training defense techniques,

Its efficacy is far inferior to that of the Blood Spirit Body Refining Fluid!

A tael of fifty-year-old blood spirit grass, when combined with two other low-cost herbs to make Blood Spirit Body Refining Fluid...

Its efficacy is as good as directly consuming five taels of fifty-year-old blood spirit grass.

And it’s more easily absorbed.

"Keer, give me four taels of Quenching Spirit Grass, three and eight tenths taels of Amber Leaf, one tael of Blood Spirit Grass... and also add in two taels of water."

Wyatt Barnes instructed the girl.

With the girl’s help, it kept him from having to do everything himself.

Before long, the first batch of Blood Spirit Body Refining Fluid was prepared.

"Keer, the ’Cold Ice Divine Sword Formula’ is a sword cultivator’s technique, which only contains offensive sword techniques... Starting from today, I’m going to teach you two new martial techniques, one is a movement martial technique and the other is a defensive martial technique."

The martial techniques Wyatt Barnes gave to the girl were two high-level Profound techniques.

These were also, to date, ones that the girl could directly practice and would not easily attract other’s scrutiny.

’Wave Skimming Light Steps’, High-Level Profound Movement Martial Technique.

With perfect practice, one can move lightly and swiftly...

It’s a movement martial technique particularly suitable for women.

’Flower Transfer and Wood Attachment’, High-Level Profound Defensive Martial Technique.

Unlike typical defensive martial techniques which emphasize on enduring the opponent’s hit, this defensive martial technique emphasizes on softness overcoming strength, and training one’s body to the pinnacle of softness to transfer attacks landed on oneself elsewhere.

The nature of defense martial skills generally involves cultivating a body as strong as refined steel, which is not suitable for women.

Wyatt Barnes certainly does not wish for Keer to become a ’muscular woman’ in the future.

However, this set of defensive martial skills is perfect for her.

"Keer, in addition to improving your cultivation level, you should devote more time to physical martial skills. As for defensive martial skills, with the help of Blood Spirit Body Refining Liquid, you only need to set aside a little time for training after practicing."

Wyatt Barnes looked at the young girl, persuading her patiently and kindly.

Only Wyatt Barnes could be so bold.

Even in their Lee family, not many people could consistently use Blood Lingzhi to assist with defensive martial training.

Most people could only use Blood Lingzhi to help break through realm bottlenecks.

Just like Azael Lee.

"Yes, Young Master."

The girl obediently nodded her head, spending some time to memorize the two sets of martial skills Wyatt Barnes had passed on.

After Keer went back to her room to practice, Wyatt Barnes pondered a moment and then went to see his mother, Christina Lee.

He also passed on the two sets of martial skills to Christina Lee.

"Mother...when I step into the Condensed Pill Realm and refine the ’Spirit Essence Pill,’ you will disperse your Origin Force. At that time, I will pass on a technique similar to the Cold Ice Divine Sword Formula that Keer practices. With the medicinal power of the Spirit Essence Pill, you can quickly restore your peak strength and potentially surpass it!"

Wyatt Barnes told Christina Lee.

He had long wished to pass on a high-level technique to his mother.

Unfortunately, she had cultivated her Origin Force using other techniques and changing her cultivation method would require dispersing all her Origin Force.

Dispersing Origin Force presented a great risk!

Unless there is the assistance of a Spirit Essence Pill.

"Alright, I will listen to you."

Christina Lee nodded, a face full of love.

Her son had grown up, and he could support the whole family by himself now.

"Brother Lanni, can you see? This is our child. He is an upright and strong man."

Christina Lee’s gaze became distant, her face breaking into a smile of happiness.

Wyatt Barnes sighed.

Whenever he saw his mother like this, he knew she was thinking of his father again. Not wanting to disturb her, he quietly left the room.

After returning to his room, Wyatt Barnes began to search the memories of the Reincarnated Martial Emperor for a suitable defensive martial skill to cultivate...

As for the offensive martial skills, he didn’t need them now. His mastery of the Shape and Intent Fist and the Sword Drawing Technique was sufficient to put him at the top among his peers.

When he reaches the Condensed Pill Realm, he will then cultivate the high-level profound martial skill – Drawing the Dragon’s Eyes!

As for physical martial skills, he had the Spiritual Snake Body Method.

Only defensive martial skills remained blank.

The defensive martial skill Earth Dragon Shield in the Nine Dragons War Sovereign requires at least Original Pill Realm cultivation level to master.

For Wyatt Barnes, this was too far away, he couldn’t wait!

"The Like a Mountain Technique...No, too passive, unable to coordinate with the Spiritual Snake Body Method."

"The Bell and Drum Change...No!"

...

While Wyatt Barnes was earnestly searching for high-level profound defensive martial skills in the memories of the Reincarnated Martial Emperor, he gradually began to feel a bit of fatigue.

The fatigue was mental.

Accessing the memories of the Reincarnated Martial Emperor requires a great deal of mental energy; down the line, it becomes hard to handle.

"That’s the one!"

Just as Wyatt Barnes was dozing off, he discovered a set of martial skills. With this find, he suddenly jolted awake again.

The Grand Displacement is a high-level profound defensive martial art that emphasizes repelling the enemy’s attacks with their own moves!

It has similarities with the Flower Transfer and Wood Attachment!

However, the conditions for the Grand Displacement are more stringent. The cultivator must be as soft as boneless, so as to cleverly reverse the opponent’s attack and return it to them with displacement force.

Wyatt Barnes, who has cultivated the Spirit Snake Transformation in the ’Nine Dragons War Sovereign,’ perfectly fulfills these conditions!

Once he had chosen a martial skill, he started to practice.

First, he poured the Blood Spirit Body Refining Liquid into his bath and soaked himself in the tub.

Feeling the icy cold of the blood spirit refining body fluid, Wyatt Barnes’s face tightened as he began running the mental method of the Grand Displacement...

Grand Displacement, as a defensive martial art, primarily focuses on the cultivation of the physical body to produce defensive energy on the skin surface.

The defensive energy produced varies with different defensive martial arts.

The defensive energy only surfaces when running the defensive martial art, showing its powerful defensive capability.

With the help of Blood Spirit Body Refining Liquid, Wyatt Barnes was close to the beginner level of the Grand Displacement after one night.

The mastery of martial arts is generally divided into four realms.

Beginner, Small Success, Great Success, and Perfection.

The power of each level varies greatly.

For example, the Collapsing Fist in Wyatt Barnes’s Shape and Intent Fist is actually a Perfection.

However, because it essentially equates to a lower-class profound technique, it is not as good as the middle-class profound Roaring Tiger Fist. Therefore, it was mistakenly recognized as the Great Success Realm Roaring Tiger Fist by Ayan Lee.

"Within a month, I will surely master the Grand Displacement."

A confident smile appeared at the corner of Wyatt Barnes’s mouth.

Of course, while practicing the Grand Displacement, Wyatt Barnes didn’t forget to continue advancing in his Spiritual Snake Body Method...
