Hung Siu turned to the duo and nodded his head gently. “You've done well. However, may I ask what was inside the illusion? Since the illusion has been around for many centuries, our city has borne great curiosity towards it; some were even obsessed with it.
“I would be extremely grateful if sixth teacher is willing to clear my doubts.”
As a five-chambered state, Hung Siu could be considered as putting his stature at a very low level. Kam Chin Kee might’ve been a member of Cloud Palace, where all the strongest cultivators in the world were from, but Kam Chin Kee was not powerful enough to have Hung Siu speak to him in this manner.
How Hung Siu spoke to the two-chambered boys showed his sincerity, and Kam Chin Kee was reminded of Hung Ching Sun subconsciously when he heard Hung Siu. The other would’ve done anything just for that legacy.
“It's the special body form, Flowing Stream,” Kam Chin Kee answered.
“Ah?” The crowd was stunned by his answer.
“The Flowing Stream Body?” Hung Leung couldn't help but ask.
“Yes.” Kam Chin Kee nodded.
The Flowing Stream Body ranked seventh on the Earth Rank. Cultivators who acquired the Flowing Stream Body would see changes take place to their skin; they could control it and allow it to become smooth, not for beauty purposes but to defend the cultivator from all long-distance attacks, even long-distance energliph to a certain extent.Cultivators with the Flowing Stream Body could not be injured by ordinary attacks as their skin’s unnoticeable change would shield the attacks for them. Unlike other special body forms, it was quite common and practical, thus it was ranked seventh.
Yes, it was quite common for Great Wisdom City citizens. There were one or two elites equipped with this body form every generation, and half of the four-chambered and above elites present currently had it! The Hung brothers, Hung Leung and Hung Siu, naturally had it too.
The method of cultivating this special body form was to absorb the Heavenly Silver Waterfall’s energy into their body and strengthen their skin silently. To put it simply, the equation for a successful Flowing Stream Body was seventy percent patience and thirty percent luck.
As long as one stayed under the waterfall long enough, they would get the special body from unless they were unlucky. Let alone the four-chambered states, but even amongst the Great Wisdom group of three-chambered elites, some had managed to pick up the special body form successfully.
All of these were the best cultivators of their state in Great Wisdom City. Like the Ching Clan’s Ching Fui Ping, the Kung-Suen Clan’s Kung-Suen Cheung, the To Clan’s To Ling Fung… as for the Hung Clan, who treated the waterfall as their backyard, they already had three disciples who gained the special body form successfully. The three of them were seen as future four-chambered cultivators as well as their clan’s future to the public.
Learning that the legacy hidden in the illusion was just a common body form of their city, the crowd felt kind of disappointed, as it was less amazing than they thought it would be. Of course, they were in doubt, but since there weren’t any clear changes to Kam Chin Kee’s body and there wasn’t much change to his energliph movement, the crowd wouldn’t know if he acquired any other powerful styles or legacies too.
It was inappropriate for Hung Siu to continue, thus, he did not and allowed Chui Yim and Kam Chin Kee to leave the Hung Clan back to Man Fai’s house, where Lam Ming Sum already had dinner prepared.
“Brother Chin Kee, you worked so hard, even sacrificing your Blue Wolf, just to get a special body form that’s as common as a vegetable in a farm?”
Kam Chin Kee smiled bitterly as he picked up a vegetable. “Don’t underestimate it. People only get it after cultivating under the waterfall for more than ten years, yet I got it in a single day.”
“So is that it?” Chui Yim continued in an eccentric manner.
“Hehe.” Since it was only him and Chui Yim, Kam Chin Kee answered honestly, “It’s indeed not that simple, the Flowing Stream Body is just a part of it.”
“So what’s the actual body form?” Chui Yim asked after a short pause. He expected this answer.
“I’ve acquired the Heavenly Skies Body from the illusion, it’s an extremely powerful body form,” Kam Chin Kee said slowly.
“I’ve never seen it on the Heaven-Earth-Human rank.” Chui Yim raised an eyebrow.
“Didn’t you hear from the Hung Clan leader?” Kam Chin Kee flashed him a mysterious smile. “Nobody managed to acquire it even after many centuries.” With that, he placed his cutlery down. “Follow me out. I’ll perform it for you so we can coordinate better in the future.”
Lam Ming Sum glared at them, but she was not surprised or too angry with them as it wasn’t just Chui Yim and Kam Chin Kee, this was how all Cloud Palace disciples were. For example, Wong Kei would just leave his dinner and go back to the banyan tree to play Go when he suddenly had an idea, and Yim Mo Chiu would suddenly perform a dance out of nowhere before running off to a hidden place to continue.
All Cloud Palace disciples were born for the path they took, and they were all extremely crazy about it.
Thus, Lam Ming Sum was already used to such things when Chui Yim and Kam Chin Kee suddenly mentioned that they were going to head out to test the newly acquired body form.
Kam Chin Kee and Chui Yim stood in the arena they made outside of the house with stones. Kam Chin Kee picked a pebble and threw it to Chui Yim. “Pass me the pebble.”
Chui Yim was startled, but he did as told.
Kam Chin Kee did not dodge. Before the pebble crashed into him, it changed directions sharply, like a river making a sharp turn when coming across a reef or its direction being affected by the wind.
Chui Yim frowned. “That’s just like the Flowing Streams Body.”
Kam Chin Kee laughed and threw another rock at Chui Yim, getting him to do it again. “Try it again.”
And Chui Yim did.
Whoosh… The pebble changed direction when it neared Kam Chin Kee.
“Eh?” Chui Yim was startled, while Kam Chin Kee let out a laugh. He knew that Chui Yim most probably had an idea now. Chui Yim picked up another pebble from the ground and threw it back at Kam Chin Kee.
This time around, the pebble went back to where it came from; Chui Yim.
Chui Yim grabbed the pebble and expressed his wonderment. “So you can control it?”
Kam Chin Kee nodded with a gentle smile. “The Flowing Stream Body is the most basic version of the Heavenly Skies Body – redirecting attacks. But because it’s just the simple form, it can only do so automatically.
“But the actual and completed version of the Heavenly Skies Body isn’t that simple.
Even Kam Chin Kee was feeling great admiration. He never expected to come across such a great chance in the city.
