Urban Powerhouse: Chaos Supreme-Chapter 1401 - 1368: Difficulty

"Beat him up?" Liu Yiyi was initially taken aback, but then a sneer appeared on her veiled, beautiful face, "I know you took the first place in the Prison Realm competition, and your strength among the new students is considered quite good, but Yuan Qing has Galaxy Level Middle strength and is only one step away from High-level Galaxy Level. Even I can only tie with him, and you still want to teach him a lesson?"

"If Sister doesn’t believe me, call him over now and watch me beat him up." Lin Mo said with a smile.

"Arrogant!"

Liu Yiyi bit her silver teeth lightly, snorted, and then gracefully moved towards the stairs leading to the second floor.

However, in Liu Yiyi’s heart, there was a strange feeling. Usually, she had a carefree personality, known for being cold among the Seven Sects, but today she was somewhat upset over the words of a newcomer disciple.

"This guy." Liu Yiyi cursed inwardly, then quickened her pace, disappearing from Lin Mo’s sight. Lin Mo shook his head and continued to lower his head, flipping through the books on the shelf. He wasn’t arrogant, but he had true strength, which gave him such confidence. Recently, he had absorbed a lot of Cold Energy, coupled with his own strength comparable to Galaxy-level Beginner, allowing him to face even Galaxy Level Middle cultivators with some confidence.

As for the existence of High-level Galaxy Level, Lin Mo wasn’t sure if he could spar with them now. No longer thinking about the incident that just happened, Lin Mo focused on selecting an ’Elemental Control Technique’. This ’Elemental Control Technique’ wasn’t some precious Cultivation Technique Secret Manual; on the contrary, this cultivation technique was quite ordinary. It is a method and theory for training in the control of True Yuan.

Even if one’s strength is not very high, if their understanding is sufficient, they can also write insights and theoretical methods on ’Elemental Control Technique’.

"The Elemental Control Technique written by Mystic Realm Sect’s Seven Sect Elders..."

"The ’Elemental Control Technique Theory’ inscribed by the Sect Master of the Mystic Realm Sect..."

"The Supreme Elder of the Meng Family’s insights on Elemental Control Technique..."

A row of bookshelves was filled with dense theories and methods regarding Elemental Control Techniques, making Lin Mo feel dizzy. These Elemental Control Techniques were all written by powerful individuals, refined from the essence of their own cultivation experiences.

"Which one to choose?" Lin Mo was somewhat in a dilemma.

Suddenly, Lin Mo’s peripheral vision caught a corner of the bookshelf. In the corner lay a dust-covered secret manual. For some reason, upon seeing this secret manual, Lin Mo felt a subtle sense of excitement.

"Could it be a treasure?"

Lin Mo’s heart started pounding faster. He trusted his intuition deeply and immediately picked up the dust-covered secret manual, brushing off the dust to reveal the words on the cover: ’Ancient Control Technique’.

"This...to use such a name, really is...arrogant." Lin Mo chuckled when he saw the name on the secret manual.

The words ’Ancient’ are an honorific, generally reserved for Heavenly Rank techniques and manuals. Yet, if this truly were a Heavenly Rank Secret Manual, how could it be neglected and overlooked like a hidden gem? Flipping open ’Ancient Control Technique’, it recorded some miscellaneous theories, with exercises about the cultivation of Elemental Control Technique that were incredibly bitter, even somewhat ’nonsensical’. Even a Martial Artist just beginning their practice might

dismiss such things with ’disdain’.

"No, this is the thought process of ordinary Martial Artists. I cultivate with the Star Wheel Universe Map, having already gathered eight star powers within, operating according to the ’pattern’. Are the ’patterns’ here possibly the same kind of marvelous use?"

Lin Mo’s eyes widened suddenly. The ’Ancient Control Technique’ contained several diagrams, all annotating different effects from guiding the movement of the star powers within the Dantian.

Lin Mo’s heartbeat sped up. Could it be that this ’Ancient Control Technique’ was specifically created for the Star Wheel Universe Map?

Without time for further contemplation, Lin Mo immediately took the secret manual in hand and headed to the ’Cultivation Technique Pavilion’ entrance. Before leaving, he had to register at the ’Cultivation Technique Pavilion’.

The two who were injured by Lin Mo earlier still hadn’t left. Seeing Lin Mo choose a cultivation technique and come out to register, their expressions turned somewhat sullen.

"I want to borrow this secret manual." Lin Mo showed the secret manual to the two, then sneered and said, "Are you two dissatisfied? If so, we can fight again."

Upon hearing his words, the two disciples immediately changed their expressions and hurriedly proceeded with the registration.

"Ancient Control Technique?" The taller youth was initially stunned, then sneered with disdain on his face: "Such trash Elemental Control Technique, and someone actually wants to borrow it, tsk tsk." 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

"Sect Master, elders, and the Supreme Elder wrote Elemental Control Techniques, yet you picked one written by a servant, hehe." The shorter youth followed up.

Lin Mo frowned slightly, "What did you say, this Ancient Control Technique was written by a servant?" "Lin Mo, let me tell you, you can only borrow a low-level secret manual for free once a month, and you’ve already made your choice so you can’t go back on it. This ’Ancient Control Technique’ was written by an old servant of the Seven Sects. It’s said he spent a hundred years cultivating in the Seven Sects and never crossed into Galaxy Level, but the Sect Leader pitied him and allowed his Elemental Control Technique to be placed in the Cultivation Technique Pavilion, and then he left." The tall youth sneered, clearly thinking Lin Mo chose the worst cultivation technique.

This also gave the two individuals, who were previously upset, a sense of schadenfreude.

Lin Mo no longer paid attention to the two, taking the Ancient Control Technique and flying out of the Cultivation Technique Pavilion directly. If this cultivation technique really was penned by a servant, it signified that the servant must be quite extraordinary.

Back in his courtyard, Lin Mo eagerly started practicing the ’Ancient Control Technique’, beginning with arranging the star power within his Dantian as depicted in the first drawing.

His star power within barely managed to line up according to the ’Ancient Control Technique’ drawing. At this moment, Lin Mo felt an oppressive force emanating from his Dantian, causing his True Yuan to become extremely ’active’.

"Come on!" Lin Mo gritted his teeth, extended his palm, and slowly started to gather a cluster of Cold Qi True Essence. A True Essence that was usually easy to coalesce now proved exceedingly difficult, the cluster of white Cold Qi True Essence in his palm dispersing the moment it formed.

"It’s too difficult... the True Essence becomes too active, it’s simply uncontrollable."

Lin Mo took a deep breath and continued to try gathering True Essence in his palm over and over. But each time, without exception, the recently coalesced True Essence would disperse on its own, unable to be maintained for long.

Meanwhile.

In the ’courtyard’ where Seven Sect Disciples resided.

In a courtyard lush with green bamboo and flourishing flowers, two figures descended from the sky, landing inside.

"Brother..." Among the two, one wore a white shirt, his facial features holding a sinister expression, while the other had a comparatively burly physique.
