Put Away Your Divine Techniques Now!

Chapter 676 - 206: Skylark’s Bargain

Hmm... seven days! I need seven days to prepare an array to preserve the ancestral demon bloodline!

After seven days, bring the blood to my place, and by then I’ll give you a gift as repayment!"

Chen Yan wasn’t really concerned about the "gift" or the repayment from the little girl.

After all, he promised the little girl’s request only with the thought of repaying a favor.

Speaking of which, the little girl’s help to him was already significant.

She taught him several spells, whether it’s the Golden Light Technique or the Ten Thousand Sword Technique and Fiery Fire Spell, considered offenses and defenses in one, they have become Chen Yan’s main methods in battle.

That previous Spirit Communication Talisman also helped him a lot. One could say that being able to steal the Divine Tree Juice was entirely thanks to the "Spirit Communication Talisman"! Otherwise, there was little chance he could have escaped.

Seeing Chen Yan agree, the little girl’s mood improved greatly, and she seemed a bit excited.

She seemed to feel a lot more grateful to Chen Yan and thought for a moment before saying: "Regarding what you told me about your girlfriend’s cultivation talent, that special case of affinity with Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi...

I do have a way to verify it. Maybe I can help you determine what the problem is!"

"Oh?" Chen Yan got serious: "You have a method?"

"Yes, I might not be able to help you solve it, but I can help you determine the issue. However, I need a few days to prepare.

Seven days! After seven days, you bring me the blood of the ancestral demon bloodline, and I’ll also give you what I’ve prepared."

Since the two had said what needed to be said, they left the square together, returning to the neighborhood.

The little girl went back to her place, while Chen Yan returned home before jumping out from the mirror world.

Over the next seven days, Chen Yan waited patiently.

He remembered that he hadn’t gone to teach at the Cloud Sect academy for a long time—he couldn’t let his pocket money run out!

If he didn’t put in the effort himself, and Chu Keqing gave him a blank salary, it might be judged by the Heavenly Dao as earning with cultivation and mana, and that would be a disaster.

He consecutively taught at the academy for three days, and Lu Sisi, having nothing to do, accompanied him to class.

When Chen Yan was lecturing, Lu Sisi would sit in the lecture hall with her chin on her hands, listening to the class along with the students.

After a couple of times, someone mistakenly thought Lu Sisi was also a student doing advanced studies at the academy. Plus, given Lu Sisi’s youthful beauty, some students came to strike up a conversation—after all, those who came for Zen cultivation certainly had extraordinary qualities.

But Chen Yan wouldn’t intentionally create those cliché showing-off scenes. He clarified his identity and his relationship with Lu Sisi right away, naturally avoiding any melodramatic plots.

So, they spent every day going to the academy in the daytime and returning home in the evening.

The two of them seemed to live these calm, clock-in workdays.

Only occasionally, when Chen Yan had nothing to do at home, he looked at the guys in the house, except himself, there was one person, one cat, and one turtle.

It seemed like none of them were simple!

Chen Yan suspected that Lu Sisi was probably not an ordinary mortal with a ninety percent certainty in his heart!

The big cat, needless to say, was a Spiritual Immortal Beast, and with ancestral demon bloodline—meaning the big cat was a descendant of a Venerable Demon Race bloodline.

Even the old turtle Gui Geng wasn’t common; it could sense the ancestral demon bloodline, indicating it was from the Upper Race!

Yes... the Turtle Race has also produced venerables!

Moreover, the old turtle Gui Geng’s cultivation talent should be quite outstanding.

However, the household relationship was very delicate.

The old turtle avoided Big White, and Big White avoided Lu Sisi.

Lu Sisi wanted to get close to him, and Big White also liked to be close to him, but because Big White resisted Lu Sisi, most of the time, it could only jump to high corners, looking at him with resentful eyes.

What a mess of a situation!

I used to think I was a naive and straightforward man! How did I end up feeling like a scumbag emperor watching two consorts vying for favor at home?

As for Gui Geng... well, it could be considered the chief eunuch.

On the evening of the seventh day, Chen Yan found a moment, secretly jumped into the mirror world, and went to the little girl’s house.

It had been quite a while since he last entered the home of the Yunqiao Great Demon.

As the little girl opened the door and let Chen Yan enter, Chen Yan raised an eyebrow.

He vaguely felt the house seemed somewhat unusual.

Hmm...

Looking at the home’s decor, everything seemed neat but somewhat off.

As he sat on the sofa in the living room, his fingers brushed the sofa cushion, suddenly realizing what was wrong.

"You seem a bit lazy now, don’t you clean the house?" Chen Yan lightly pinched the dust between his fingers: "You were the one who taught me the spell of the Cleaning Technique."

The little girl remained unfazed and calmly said, "Recently, I like wandering around and rarely come back—if we hadn’t agreed to meet at my place today, you wouldn’t have found me here."

Alright then.

Chen Yan was thinking about the important matter of the day as he solemnly took out a porcelain bottle.

Inside was a vial of Big White’s blood.

The blood had just been drawn today—when drawing blood from Big White, it was very obedient, lying gently beside Chen Yan, allowing him to use a syringe to draw the fresh blood.

However, the cat did look up at Chen Yan at that moment.

That look, how should one describe it, seemed to say: How could you treat me like this, scumbag?

At this moment, Chen Yan handed the porcelain bottle to the little girl, and her expression immediately became solemn.

Her eyes flickered, and she solemnly took it with both hands. Then, in front of Chen Yan, she slowly brought her palms together. The bottle filled with Big White’s blood disappeared in her palms, replaced by a small tattoo-like pattern, clearly the outline of a porcelain bottle.

"I use my body as a vessel, nurturing the bloodline of the Demon Ancestor with my demonic power and Primordial Qi, which can preserve it for a long time," the little girl explained casually.

Chen Yan didn’t ask further.

Then, the little girl gently waved her hand, and from the air, she caught something and handed it to Chen Yan: "Hey! This is my token of appreciation!"

Chen Yan stared in amazement at the object the little girl handed over.

A long, furry piece of brownish-yellow.

Inside was a stick densely packed with tufts of feathers...

"Your token of appreciation to me is a feather duster?"

The little girl immediately glared at Chen Yan: "Feather duster?"

She pointed at the object in Chen Yan’s hand and snorted: "Those aren’t chicken feathers! They are from the body of the Yunqiao Great Demon, molted over the years!

The feathers that fall from my body naturally carry my Innate Divine Techniques, and combined with my artifact creation skills, I’ve fashioned this Magical Treasure to give to you!"

Then, the little girl snatched it from Chen Yan’s hand, holding it in her palm. As she channeled Primordial Qi through it, the feather duster immediately began to glow!

Chen Yan’s face couldn’t hold back!

Is this... the Investiture of the Gods? Is it the Five-Colored Divine Light of Peacock King Kong?

No, it’s not!

The feather duster in the little girl’s hand didn’t have five colors but three!

Yes! That’s right!

Red, yellow, green! Three colors, just like a traffic light!

"I took care to engrave Arrays and Runes on this treasure, activating the Innate Divine Techniques present in my own Skylark feathers!

With this Three-Colored Divine Light, as long as you’re below the Celestial Human Realm, nothing can withstand it!

Above the Celestial Human Realm, as long as the opponent isn’t too strong, you can still hold your own with my Skylark Feather Duster!"

Below the Celestial Human Realm, nothing can withstand it?

Does that mean, below the Celestial Human Realm, it’s invincible?

Chen Yan looked at the little girl half-believing, half-doubting: "Is this thing really that powerful? Are there any restrictions on using it?"

The proud look on the little girl’s face faded a little, and she whispered: "Well... it just consumes a lot of Primordial Qi."

As she spoke, she glanced at Chen Yan: "With your current cultivation at the Great Perfection of Guiyuan Realm, you can use this Magical Treasure three times before exhausting your Primordial Qi."

Alright, he knew it wouldn’t be that easy.

However, Chen Yan thought about it for a moment. A Magical Treasure that is invincible below the Celestial Human Realm, capable of being used three times in his full state—it’s still excellent!

Next time he goes to the Domain Realm and encounters any of those Fierce Beast Race beings that can emit red light, he could make them kneel!

Chen Yan thanked the little girl and dutifully stored the Skylark Feather Duster into his Storage Jade Pendant.

The little girl hesitated for a moment before taking out something else.

"I mentioned that regarding your girlfriend’s situation, I can help determine the problem at hand."

With that, she extended her palm in front of Chen Yan.

Chen Yan looked and saw that the little girl’s palm held a light fluff.

Not a feather, the kind without a stick.

Just a piece of light fluff, slightly tinged with a yellowish-white hue.

The little girl rolled her eyes, speaking solemnly: "This is a brow fluff taken from the center of my forehead!

As a Yunqiao Great Demon, this brow fluff is a part of my inherent body, with various effects like insight, enlightenment, and more.

Its marvelous effects are much stronger than the Spirit Communication Pill you used..."
