Human Clan Defender-Chapter 792 - s Power of Faith, Role of the Book Spirit (Two in One, Requesting Monthly Pass)_3
Just as expected.
When Shen Changqing asked his question, Wu Shu replied without hesitation, "Because I am the Spirit Intellect nurtured by the Martial Arts Compendium, I am intimately familiar with all the Martial Arts content within it. I can even manifest it for others to comprehend. Furthermore, if I grow to a certain extent, I will be able to deduce the subsequent content of the Martial Arts Compendium."
"You mean, you can deduce the subsequent content of the Martial Arts Compendium!"
Shen Changqing's expression changed.
To be able to deduce the subsequent content of the Martial Arts Compendium meant that the Book Spirit could pave its own way forward.
Think about it. If I only write content in the Martial Arts Compendium up to the Cave Heaven Realm and then stop, as long as the Book Spirit exists, he might deduce the realms beyond the Cave Heaven Realm. This ability is nothing short of terrifying. If that's really the case, then infusing the Power of Faith into the Martial Arts Compendium was truly the right move.
Wu Shu shook his head. "Deducing subsequent content isn't as easy as master thinks; there are significant limitations. I can only deduce Martial Arts of a certain realm once I have reached that corresponding realm myself. For example, master has given me the Power of Faith, allowing me to manifest at a realm equivalent to the first level of Heaven Beings. Therefore, the Martial Arts I can deduce are at this level. Moreover, I can only deduce Martial Arts around the first level of Heaven Beings. I cannot deduce anything higher. Only after further breakthroughs can I deduce stronger Martial Arts."
Hearing this explanation, Shen Changqing nodded slightly.
Even with such limitations, the role of the Book Spirit was still significant.
Then, another thought came to him, and his gaze grew intense.
"You say you can deduce Martial Arts of your current realm. Are there any limitations, or can you deduce any Martial Arts of this level?"
"There are no restrictions, but deducing Martial Arts requires time and the Power of Faith. Time isn't an issue, as the Book Spirit has no lifespan limitations. As for the Power of Faith—"
At this point, a smile appeared on his youthful face. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎
"I am rooted in master's faith. Compared to the constant stream of Power of Faith provided by the Human Clan, the amount I consume is trivial. Consumption will only increase when deducing more profound Martial Arts later."
After he finished speaking, Shen Changqing realized, I've truly stumbled upon a treasure! The ability to deduce Martial Arts alone was beyond comparison to other treasures.
Just think. Now that the Book Spirit can deduce Martial Arts at the Heaven Being Level—even if he has only just reached that level—doesn't that mean I won't have to worry about running out of initial Martial Arts if I merge them later on? Someday, if he grows to the Immortal Golden Body Realm or even the Cave Heaven Realm, could the initial Martial Arts I use be elevated to the same level? If so, the number of merging steps would be significantly reduced, and correspondingly, the consumption of Slaughter Value would be drastically lowered.
Reducing Slaughter Value consumption was a great boon for Shen Changqing.
Not to mention, the Book Spirit receiving the supply of the Power of Faith could potentially reach a profound realm. In that case, I would possess a living Treasury of books. Insufficient Martial Arts? A trivial matter. He could just have the Book Spirit deduce more.
However, Shen Changqing thought of another issue.
"How long would it take you to deduce a Martial Art that reaches the Heaven Being Level?"
The Book Spirit answered truthfully. "That mainly depends on what aspect is being deduced. If it's the aspect of moves, it would consume less time; about a month or so to deduce one. If it concerns the foundation of a realm, focusing primarily on tempering the Flesh and Divine Soul, it would take at least three months to half a year."
One month. Three months to half a year. Shen Changqing mused. This timeframe wasn't just not long; it was actually quite short.
A normal Martial Artist deducing Martial Arts of the same level, no matter how extensive their knowledge, would find it nearly impossible to deduce it within a month. The Book Spirit's consistent deduction ability clearly showed his usefulness.
"What if the pages of the Martial Arts Compendium are all filled up? What then?" Shen Changqing continued to inquire.
Though there was still much space left in the Martial Arts Compendium he had bound, there would eventually come a day when it was completely filled. If it got filled up, how could deduction continue?
Wu Shu said, "Master need not worry about that. From the moment I came into existence, all content of the Martial Arts Compendium already existed in my mind, and my physical body has long been blank."
As he spoke, Wu Shu waved his hand, and the Martial Arts Compendium, which was about as tall as him, automatically flipped through its pages. The pages, which previously held recorded content, were now all blank.
After that, Wu Shu waved his hand again, and lines of text appeared on the blank pages.
"As long as I wish, I can manifest the Martial Arts as text, but if I do not wish, the Martial Arts will remain within my mind. If someone else wants to comprehend the Martial Arts, they would need either my personal instruction or the written text. I myself can contain a limitless amount of Martial Arts. At least, I haven't yet sensed any limit to how many Martial Arts would be needed to fill me."
"So that's how it is!" Shen Changqing suddenly understood.
If that's the case, then the Martial Arts Compendium no longer had any volume limitations. Moreover, he could continuously deduce Martial Arts, causing the content of the Martial Arts Compendium to grow. One day, the Martial Arts Compendium would inevitably become the origin of all Martial Arts in the world.
