Chapter 2383 (Two Thousand Three Hundred and Eighty-three) Temporary

“What do you mean nothing happened?” Tie Wandao asked, “Will you answer my question properly?”

Li Pingrun replied: “Chief, I answered properly. She used martial arts on the object blocking the passage, and there really was no change there. If a person doesn’t know magic but only martial arts, it’s impossible to open the passage directly by hitting it.”

Tie Wandao said: “Then why is this passage open now?”

“I don’t know either.” Li Pingrun said.

“Don’t you know how to use the Guanji Fan?” Tie Wandao asked.

Li Pingrun said: “Yes, what I saw from the Guanji fan was that she used martial arts on that place, but it did not cause any changes there.”

“Then tell me, what happened next?” Tie Wandao said.

“Then she left.” Li Pingrun replied.

“Gone?” Tie Wandao asked, “Just left like that? Did you see it right?”

“To reply to the clan leader, I am sure I am not mistaken.” Li Pingrun said.

“Now that he’s here, is he willing to be like this?” Tie Wandao asked.

“In fact, when I looked at her movements when using the Guanji Fan, I felt that she didn’t seem to think much about opening the channel. Although her movements were very fast, and one could tell at a glance that she was highly skilled in martial arts, she seemed to be deliberately not letting her martial arts skills take effect.” Li Pingrun said.

“Did she intentionally not let her martial arts work?” Tie Wandao asked, “Then what do you think she wanted to do?”

“I feel like they want to borrow some energy from the Muxi Pavilion area.” Li Pingrun said.

“There’s still someone borrowing energy from a place where people have died?” Tie Wandao asked, “What do you want to borrow energy for?” Li Pingrun said, “I just thought that her movements looked like she wanted to borrow energy. I don’t even know if I’m right about that. As for what she wants to do, I can’t guess.”

“Will you use martial arts to borrow energy?” Tie Wandao asked.

Li Pingrun said: “It’s possible. It depends on whether she was reciting the spell silently at the time. Some spells can be used to exert their effects with the help of the energy released when a person uses a specific martial art. But this situation is rare, and the location requirements are very strict. Not all martial arts can achieve such an effect.”

Tie Wandao frowned and said, “It works by using the energy released when a person uses a specific martial art? Then it mainly depends on spells? Using martial arts is just a supplementary role?”

Li Pingrun said: “You can say that.”

“That spell must have been taught by someone who knows magic?” Tie Wandao asked again.

“It must be.” Li Pingrun replied.

“Before, in order to test whether the bowl among the relics had been cast a spell, you taught the spell to Elder Tie and asked Elder Tie to pass it on to the young patriarch. How could that happen? Elder Tie doesn’t know any magic.” Tie Wandao asked.

“These two situations are different.” Li Pingrun answered, “For a spell that uses the energy released when a person uses a specific martial art, it must be told to the person using the martial art by someone who knows magic. It’s useless to tell it to the person using the martial art.”

“Is it possible that the spell you need to recite silently is different every time you do this?” Tie Wandao asked.

“That’s right!” Li Pingrun said, “The spells that need to be silently recited in that situation are temporary, with time limits and other restrictions.”

Tie Wandao asked, “She left after using her martial arts skills…Are you sure she didn’t open this passage?”
