Chapter Eighty-One: Wind-Splitting Secret Sword
Under the gaze of many astonished eyes, Yue Yu slowly opened her eyes, and the originally black and white pupils had also taken on a greenish tint.
In the next moment, his left hand made a gesture similar to that of a Taoist seal, and he spat out another strange syllable. Immediately afterwards, the wooden spirit energy around Yue Yu began to disperse in all directions in fine threads.
At first, there was no movement, but as the green and blue spiritual energy entered the floorboards and surrounding bookshelves. The people in the building only saw countless tiny wooden thorns suddenly shooting out from the smooth wooden boards, almost filling all the space within a radius of five feet around Yue Yu in an instant.
"Third Brother, could this be the secret technique within the Silken Palm? Besides wind-based techniques, he can actually use wood-based ones as well?"
Another white-haired old man stood beside the previous brown-shirted old man, his eyes full of surprise. "How many surprises does this little guy want to give us?"
"Judging from this, it's probably the Silk Binding Curse. However, compared to his ability to use Wood-type secret techniques, I'm even more surprised by his ability to learn the Silk Binding Curse so quickly. In our time, who wasn't spending over a decade before barely being able to use it?"
The grey-haired, brown-robed old man known as Third Brother let out a long sigh before waving his hand with a complex expression. "This little guy is really too reckless! Send someone down to the lower floors immediately and temporarily seal off this floor! Also, take into custody everyone who was present in the building just now!"
"Seal the building?"
His face was first stunned, but then, when the white-haired old man's gaze swept over the wooden board on the ground that had already become riddled with holes, a hint of understanding flashed in his eyes. In fact, even without these sudden holes caused by the silk curse, just in case, he couldn't let those people reading downstairs leave like this. Nor could he allow others to enter the building at this time.
Although it should be the time for those elite disciples who lost in the big competition to choose books and rest in the library, now there is only a temporary delay. At this moment, there is nothing more important than covering up the little guy's reckless behavior just now.
Just thinking about what happened outside the building earlier, I don't know if there are other high-ranking martial artists who have passed by this place, and whether anyone can sense the spiritual fluctuations here. The white-haired old man only felt a sharp pain in his temples.
Although it's a lot of trouble, in the eyes of the old man, there is still a strong sense of surprise.
"This lock message is easy! The problem is that the suitable wood species for this silk curse is hard to find, and I'm afraid that in the next two months, we'll have to make a special trip to Li City for him..."
For the conversation that just happened around him, Yue Yu was completely unaware. His entire attention was now focused on the secret technique he was using. The auxiliary intelligent system in his body was also recording every moment of the launch of the Binding Silk Curse.
Those tiny wooden thorns scattered around the periphery of several meters, were still frantically surging. Until he gathered those wooden spiritual energies to exhaustion, they collapsed down with a loud crash after losing support.
Looking at the wooden dust and debris all over the ground, Yue Yu's eyebrows furrowed slightly. The wooden thorns from just now were somewhat similar to the ones used by that Longtooth Magic Elephant a year ago, which had the divine ability to shoot stone spears out of the ground. However, he wouldn't think that these fragile and brittle wooden thorns could cause any harm to people——
Was it the wrong posture and pronunciation just now? Or is it a problem with the wood? Since it's called wrapping silk, its effect should be to entangle the enemy, or I should try using those vine-like plants to test the effect.
Although he was extremely curious in his heart, at this moment, Yue Yu didn't have the energy to think deeply about it. After temporarily suppressing these thoughts, he almost couldn't wait to pick up another book wrapped in green beast skin beside him, and then directly flipped to the last few pages.
The successful use of this silk curse has added a few more expectations to these martial arts books. Since the meridians in his body can be fully adapted to the operation route of a certain secret method, it is not necessarily that there are no other secrets in the remaining books that can suit him.
It was precisely this idea that made his current mood feel a bit impatient.
And what he had just picked up was also an intermediate martial skill secret book, but the attribute was wind-based, and the cover also had the words "Wind Slashing Sword" written on it.
The bookshelf in front of Yue Yu, although labeled as a wooden martial art, is actually one of the weaker attributes among the five elements. The wood and water-based martial arts in the world are equally rare. Therefore, among the more than 50 books on this shelf, nearly half of them belong to the wind and thunder systems. As for the wind being Xun and the thunder being Zhen, these two derivative spiritual powers both belong to the wood element. The Yue family's decision to place them together with the wooden secret techniques is not unreasonable.
However, this time Yue Yu was not just acting on a whim. The reason he focused on the Wind System Martial Arts Secret Book first was because there was a reason for it. In fact, when he saw the silk curse diagram earlier, he had always felt strange. At least a quarter of the number of meridians that the wood attribute spiritual power must pass through coincided with the direction of the Gale Technique's spiritual power.
So Yue Yu had a strange idea at that time, whether the three secret methods of Mu Feng Lei have similar meridian lines? Are there any other commonalities?
Undoubtedly, if he wants to verify his own conjecture, then he can only find a few more secret methods that belong to these three attributes.
At this moment, among the several intermediate martial skill books in front of him, only this book, "Slashing Wind Sword Secret", which was deliberately placed before the Binding Silk Curse, is most likely to contain a secret method.
"Hey! You little scamp, you're still not satisfied!"
At the same time, the grey-haired old man in a brown shirt next to him also noticed Yue Yu's actions. He first showed a helpless expression, then subconsciously wanted to reach out to stop him. Yue Yu's dangerous move just now almost made his heart skip a beat. If the future hope of this clan was really ruined in front of him, he asked himself if he could bear the weight of this heavy guilt.
Just as his hand was about to touch Yue Yu's outer garment, the old man hesitated again and stopped in his tracks. He saw that the young man's face had once again lit up with a similar look of surprise as before. And almost at the same time, the vast blue wind attribute spiritual energy surged towards this side once more.
As the gathered spiritual energy grew denser, a powerful force also emanated from his fingertips. The old man in brown was caught off guard and stumbled back two steps. When he managed to steady himself with all his might against this oppressive power, he discovered that Yue Yu had already completed another mysterious hand seal in an instant. However, the wind spiritual energy did not scatter like last time, but instead converged wildly towards Yue Yu's palm. As a four-foot-long, crescent-shaped green wind blade gradually took shape, the entire third floor was as if swept by a wild storm. The massive gust of wind sent scattered books dancing everywhere, and even the heavy sandalwood bookshelves shook and toppled over.
At this time, the pupils of the brown-shirted old man had also shrunk into needle-like shapes!
