Chapter 328 - 293: The Whereabouts of Xiong Liangsheng’s Family

Chapter 328: Chapter 293: The Whereabouts of Xiong Liangsheng’s Family

As Jiang Xu approached the Dharma Ship, he gradually slowed, landing steadily on the deck with a spray of crystalline water.

He deactivated the Wave-Breaking Spell, looked at the shocked General Manager, and nodded in acknowledgment.

He then walked directly toward the cabins, not exchanging any further words with the General Manager.

The General Manager watched Jiang Xu leave, his eyes flickering.

’Extraordinary. Truly extraordinary.’

’His progress is far too rapid.’

’To reach this level in just half a month...’

’It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to call him a heaven-sent genius.’

However, the General Manager ultimately just lamented how the new generation always surpasses the old.

He then went back to his duties, not giving Jiang Xu’s matter much more thought.

After all, throughout his life, the General Manager had seen geniuses by the hundreds, even thousands.

Forget Golden Core; few even managed to reach Foundation Establishment Perfection.

The path of the Immortal Dao is long and arduous.

Unless someone was a Child of Destiny, even the greatest genius would eventually face an insurmountable obstacle.

The heavens, in their own way, were fair.

...

Jiang Xu gazed at the Star Map he had constructed, his heart filled with excitement.

He had initially thought this underwater training would require a great deal of time to cultivate his magic.

But to his surprise, in just half a month, he had completely mastered the unique ways all forty-nine techniques behaved underwater.

Part of this was because Jiang Xu had already achieved a high Skill Level with the techniques themselves.

But it was also because their transformations in water followed predictable patterns.

This made them quick to learn.

In fact, it took less than a week for Jiang Xu to grasp the basics of all forty-nine techniques.

During the remaining week, Jiang Xu had completely dismantled the Star Map he had previously brought near to completion.

This was because his new understanding of the magic allowed him to identify flaws in the previously constructed Star Map.

After dismantling the Star Map, Jiang Xu reassembled it using his newfound knowledge.

This new construction successfully incorporated the two stars that had been left out before.

The Wave-Breaking Spell Star Map was finally complete.

The effects of the completed Star Map far exceeded Jiang Xu’s imagination.

Not only was it faster than his Perfect Level Light Body Spell,

but its other various auxiliary functions also produced astonishing results.

The synergistic effect of the layered magic far surpassed what they could achieve when cast individually.

Now, if Jiang Xu were to encounter another tsunami like the last one,

he was certain he could escape with his life, at the very least.

...

It seemed that the tsunami had been the only disaster of the voyage.

For the next two months, the Dharma Ship sailed through the Youxian Sea without incident, its journey remarkably smooth.

And throughout these nearly two months of continuous sailing, Jiang Xu never rested.

Through sun and moon, wind and rain, he remained focused on the cultivation and reinforcement of his Wave-Breaking Spell Star Map.

By now, he had brought this Star Map to a state of completion.

However, Jiang Xu knew that the key to unlocking its full potential lay in continuously increasing his Skill Level with each individual technique within the Star Map, making their integration ever more seamless and perfect.

Although mastering the Wave-Breaking Spell Star Map had taken up most of his time, Jiang Xu was not content to stop there.

He cultivated a wide array of magic; to limit himself to a single Star Map would be a terrible waste.

Beyond the Wave-Breaking Spell, he still had three other Top Grade Techniques that remained unused.

Each of these techniques had its own unique characteristics, and they were in no way inferior to the Wave-Breaking Spell—some might even be superior.

Realizing this, Jiang Xu decided to begin research and construction on a second Star Map.

This time, he chose the Wind Control Technique, which harnessed the power of wind.

Unlike the Wave-Breaking Spell’s control over the Water Element, the Wind Control Technique focused on utilizing the Wind Spiritual Power between Heaven and Earth to construct an entirely new Star Map array.

The process was similar to how he had constructed the Wave-Breaking Spell Star Map.

To construct the Wind Control Technique Star Map, Jiang Xu meticulously studied Ancient Texts, tracing the origins and evolution of the technique in an attempt to grasp its core principles.

In his mind, Jiang Xu traced the flow of Wind Attribute Spiritual Qi.

He simulated how the power of wind could be woven into an invisible network within the Star Map, then through practice, he gradually perfected the execution and fusion of each related technique.

Thus, during the long voyage, whenever night fell and the stars began to glitter,

Jiang Xu would stand at the ship’s bow, using the starlight as a guide to practice the techniques that could direct the wind’s course and control its speed, all based on his own understanding.

By day, he would stand on the windswept deck, his body moving in tandem with the gales, experiencing the natural rhythm of the wind and integrating that insight into his new Star Map.

Because he had some experience to guide him, the construction of this Star Map went more smoothly.

However, since he had spent most of his time perfecting the Wave-Breaking Spell Star Map, his progress on the Wind Control Technique Star Map wasn’t particularly fast.

He had only completed a little over a third of the new Star Map’s construction.

Just as Jiang Xu finished his cultivation of the Wave-Breaking Spell Star Map and leaped out of the water onto the deck,

he noticed that the deck was suddenly crowded with people.

They were all gazing ahead excitedly, pointing at something in the distance.

Puzzled, Jiang Xu followed their gaze and saw a small, dark speck in the distance.

’What’s that?’

He had a vague suspicion. After using the Spiritual Eye Technique, his guess was confirmed.

Wenqu Island.

’We’re finally about to arrive.’

Jiang Xu finally felt himself relax.

’We can see the island now.’

’That means the chances of encountering another natural disaster are slim.’
