Mechanical God Emperor

223 – Teaching Secret Methods

“Interesting, this Katherine is really outstanding. She adapts and acts according to the circumstances. I just gave her a little hint and she managed to react this way, really amazing. Any race has its geniuses and she should be a half blood beastman genius! Only after Bo Le came into the world were there horses able to gallop one thousand li. Such horses are common, but a Bo Le is rare. It’s very interesting to be a Bo Le!” [1]

Above the clouds, Yang Feng sat on a magic carpet and watched the images on the holographic projector. The corners of his mouth rose slightly, revealing a smile.

The middle-aged man with dog ears was stunned and muttered: “Is there really a god willing to take pity on us half blood beastmen?”

Expectant and hopeful gazes focused on Katherine.

In for a penny, in for a pound. Katherine's thoughts revolved and she said loudly: “That’s right! The name of the great god is Ian! He will send a divine emissary to guide us out of our predicament. No longer will we be slaves to others. We definitely aren’t born to be slaves!”

“That’s great!!”

“Great! Thank you, mighty God Ian!”

“Great God Ian, praise you!”

“…”

The half blood beastmen burst into tears and cried out in praise. Very pure faith power exuded from them and, because it couldn’t find an object to attach itself to, gradually dissipated.

In the middle of the sky, Yang Feng operated a secret method, saw faith power exude from the half blood beastmen and then dissipate, and sighed lightly: “Such a strong faith power. According to the faith power, every single one of them might have reached the peak of shallow believers and are infinitely close to true believers. Suffering is indeed the best way to harvest faith power.”

Believers were divided into six grades: non believer, pseudo believer, shallow believer, true believer, fanatic, and saint. Apart from non believers, even pseudo believers would provide a trace of faith power when praying silently.

Under the circumstances when the time of the prayer and the strength of the soul were fixed, the faith power offered by 100 pseudo believers was comparable to that offered by only 1 shallow believer; the faith power offered by 100 shallow believers was equivalent to that offered by 1 true believer; the faith power offered by 100 true believers was equivalent to that offered by 1 fanatic; the faith power offered by 100 fanatics was equivalent to that offered by 1 saint.

Of course, if the soul of a life form was strong enough, then the faith power they offered would increase accordingly. Therefore, there were many races that were small in numbers yet their souls were powerful enough on an individual basis, and their gods were very powerful.

Half blood beastmen suffered a lot without the protection of a god. They were among the weakest and most eager for help races. Yang Feng chose half blood beastmen because they suffered a lot and were more likely to become devout believers who could offer large amounts of faith power.

In the Turandot Subcontinent, kindred were persecuted by humans and suffered as much, they earnestly wished to give birth to a kindred god. With their strong obsession, most of them were true believers and upwards. Plus, their souls were far stronger than those of ordinary people. Thanks to these factors, the Kindred Monarch Rareet was able to ignite his divine fire and evolve into a demigod.

After being pacified by Katherine, the half blood beastmen began to clean the village and bury their loved ones. Simultaneously, the huge wolves were skinned and cooked. Although the huge wolf meat didn’t taste good, but they seldom got to eat meat.

Time went by slowly and it was just getting dark. Katherine took the sword forged from divine blood steel and walked quickly to the place she had agreed with Yang Feng.

After arriving at the appointed place, Katherine began to practice her erroneous sword art under the weak moonlight. This was the only martial art she could learn.

“Stop practicing, the sword art you practice is erroneous. Keep practicing it and you’ll only ruin your body.”

Under the weak moonlight, Yang Feng, covered in the faint Light of Intervention, slowly emerged from the side.

“Master Ian! Thank you very much for saving the people of my village!”

Katherine prostrated herself on the ground and earnestly kowtowed 5 times towards Yang Feng as an expression of her gratitude. This was the highest show of gratitude she received from a half blood beastman, who used to be a slave.

Yang Feng said: “Rise!”

“Yes!” Katherine stood up, looked straight at Yang Feng with her clear and firm eyes, and said: “I want to get enough strength and knowledge to protect my people, so that half blood beastmen are no longer insulted and called hybrids, and are able to lead lives with dignity on this land. Can you teach me how to achieve that? I am willing to pay any price. Anything that is of mine, you can have.”

“I am a Wizard who pursues the truth and walks on the path to godhood. I want you to be the pope of my church and spread my faith among half blood beastmen. Half blood beastmen that are willing to believe in me and do not violate my doctrine will receive my protection.”

“Half blood beastmen under my protection will receive food, clean water, safe shelter, and a life with dignity. Anyone who attempts to capture you will be my enemy. My army will tear my enemies to pieces.”

“Katherine, are you willing to be the pope of my church and spreading my faith among half blood beastmen? This is a road full of thorns and sacrifices. I can’t do it on my own. It requires constant struggle and numerous sacrifices from half blood beastmen in order to have a chance at success.” Shrouded in holy light, Yang Feng looked like the embodiment of a god. He said slowly.

“I am willing!” Said Katherine without hesitation.

Half blood beastmen were discriminated against on the Feisuo Plane. There was no one who would teach them knowledge regarding power. Now that someone finally gave her a chance, she naturally wouldn’t let it slip past her hands.

Yang Feng reached out with his hand. A knowledge crystal appeared in his hand and flew towards Katherine. “This is a knowledge crystal with the martial art Lion King Battle Scripture, which can be cultivated until the demigod rank! Crash it and you will grasp this martial art!”

Yang Feng didn’t lack secret methods that could be cultivated until the Starry Sky Warlock rank. The Turandot Subcontinent’s 6 major Warlock groups have collected secret methods that could be cultivated until the Starry Sky Warlock rank. Between them, they even had 3 secret methods that could be cultivated until the Moonlight Warlock rank. However, the 3 secret methods that could be cultivated until the Moonlight Warlock rank were ancient secret methods with too high requirements, which he couldn’t fulfill

The Lion King War Scripture was one of the 3 secret methods that could be cultivated until the Moonlight Warlock rank. This was an improved version of the secret method that human Warlocks learned from the Lion God Arcath of the Feisuo Plane's beastman divine system. It was one of the reasons why Yang Feng chose Katherine, who was a lionman half blood beastman girl.

Katherine grabbed the martial art knowledge crystal and crashed it. Shortly after, the Lion King Scripture secret method entered her mind.

Before long, a huge lion phantom suddenly appeared behind Katherine and exuded a powerful pressure. This was the power she inherited from her bloodline. Now, it was finally stimulated by the Lion King Scripture.

Yang Feng showed a smile when he saw the phantom, saying: “Pretty good, the power of her bloodline exceeds my expectations. It seems that one of her parents was a divine descendant with divine bloodline coursing through their body. I made it big this time!”

Katherine faced upwards, released a piercing howl, and released a majestic qi. Her figure shook and she unleashed the entire set of the Lion King Battle Scripture’s fist moves onto a piece of empty land.

Boom!! After Katherine finished unleashing Lion King Battle Scripture’s fist moves, a small fist imprint was left from her final strike.

Katherine’s figure shook and she arrived in front of Yang Feng. Her beautiful eyes were filled with admiration and gratitude: “Thank you very much for teaching me the Lion King Battle Scripture martial art. I, Katherine, will never forget your kindness.”

Yang Feng smiled, flicked his finger, and another knowledge crystal flew into Katherine’s hand: “The Lion King Battle Scripture is a martial art of the lionmen of the beastman empire. Other than lionmen, the rest of the people aren’t suited to cultivate it. I am handing you the Radiant Battle Canonical Text. This martial art can be cultivated by any beastmen. When cultivated to the peak, you can become a Legend rank warrior.”

Katherine alone wasn’t enough to support the entire half blood beastmen race. Only if there was a martial art that the majority of the people could cultivate, would the race have the foundation to flourish.

Although the Radiant Battle Canonical Text martial art wasn’t as high-ranked as the Lion King Battle Scripture, but it was much more precious to the entire half blood beastman race than the Lion King Battle Scripture.

Katherine crushed the knowledge crystal and recorded the Radiant Battle Canonical Text cultivation method in her mind. Then, she slowly opened her eyes and stared at Yang Feng. Although she didn’t say anymore words of gratitude, but her beautiful eyes were filled with an unswerving determination..

“This is the king’s sword, it can bless you with 4 spells – Inspire Courage, King’s Dignity, Extraordinary Physique, and King's Power. This is the king’s armor, it has powerful defensive strength and can bless you with 8 spells – Warping Force Field, Fire Resistance Boost, Water Resistance Boost, Wind Resistance Boost, Earth Resistance Boost, Ice Resistance Boost, Light Resistance Boost, and Darkness Resistance Boost. You will need this pair of equipment to forge a future for the half blood beastmen!” Yang Feng flipped his hand and handed Katherine a secret treasure sword and a secret treasure armor entirely forged from divine blood steel.

In terms of material quality, the secret treasure sword entirely forged from divine blood steel surpassed many Legend rank secret treasure swords. Its only drawback was that the magic attached to it wasn’t strong enough. The same was true for the secret treasure armor forged from divine blood steel. However, for Katherine, they were elite magic weapons.
