In the following days, Fu Tianyu continued to practice simple circles until he could draw them freely and effortlessly in any situation. Then he stopped. At this point, Tie Lunzi had been waiting on the side, wanting to figure out what Fu Tianyu was up to.
These simple yet difficult circles had made Tie Lunzi realize something, so he was very eager now.
Just as Fu Tianyu had just dropped the peachwood sword and felt refreshed, Tie Lunzi said, "Brother, have you heard of the ability to multitask?" Fu Tianyu asked.
Tie Lunzi was stunned for a moment and then shook his head, not knowing what Fu Tianyu was talking about.
"The ability to multitask means that while you are doing one thing, you can do another thing at will. Just like what we have been practicing these days, drawing circles with your left hand and frames with your right hand, completing them simultaneously without interfering with each other. " Fu Tianyu explained.
Tie Lunzi frowned. Fu Tianyu's words he understood, but he didn't understand why Fu Tianyu was practicing this.
Fu Tianyu gave him a glance and then said, "Brother, don't underestimate this ability to multitask. Let me give you an example. If your left and right hands are using different techniques to fight against your opponent at the same time, what kind of scene do you think it would be like?"
"Using different techniques with both hands?" Tie Lunzi immediately understood and his eyes lit up with excitement.
"Brother, you mean to fight with two different techniques at the same time?" Tie Lunzi gestured, but then he realized that it was much more difficult than drawing circles.
"Right. Multitasking with both hands, even if it's just you alone, you can fight with your left and right hands, practicing against each other. If you fight with an enemy, using both hands at the same time, it's like your combat power has doubled, equivalent to two of the same people joining forces to fight." Fu Tianyu recalled the old jester in the story of "The Legend of the Furious Five", and couldn't help but admire Jin Yong's unrestrained writing style.
After listening to Fu Tianyu's words, Tie Lunzi fell into thought. The technique of using both hands to fight as described by Fu Tianyu showed him a very powerful skill.
"Kid, tell me, why can't I ever practice drawing circles with my left hand and frames with my right hand?" Just as Fu Tianyu was about to further practice, the angry voice of the Ghost King rang out from his consciousness, as if it had been filled with countless gunpowder.
During these days, Fu Tianyu was practicing, and the Ghost King was also practicing, but no matter what methods he tried, he couldn't manage to do it simultaneously. At the beginning, the Ghost King didn't even bother to ask Fu Tianyu, but now that he knew, he still couldn't do what Fu Tianyu said, and finally couldn't hold it in any longer.
Especially when he heard about the power of the technique of using both hands to fight, the Ghost King became even angrier. Why can the noble Ghost King not do it, while two low-level warriors have managed to do it? This is like slapping him in the face.
"Old Ghost, when asking someone for advice, there must be an attitude. Just based on your attitude, you will still be the same after ten more years of practice." Fu Tianyu rarely had superiority over the Ghost King, and couldn't help laughing heartily.
Although the Ghost King was restricted in the Soul Resting Pearl, Fu Tianyu was always tightly controlled by him. Before, he was even tricked by him. Otherwise, he wouldn't have fallen countless times in this valley.
"Humph, kid, I don't want to waste time on this. Tell me how you did it. I'll trade something with you." The Demon King didn't fall for Fu Tianyu's trick and prevented Fu Tianyu from having the chance to tease him any further.
"Old Demon, you're smart. First tell me what you used to exchange with me. You still owe me a powerful sword technique." Fu Tianyu knew that the old demon had a lot in his mind, so he quickly said.
Such opportunities to take the initiative are very rare. Before this, Fu Tianyu could only trade with the creature using spirit objects. That was purely hard labor.
"I'll teach you another array, the Taoist Gathering Spirit Array. How about that?" When the Demon King involved in the transaction, he immediately became extremely calm and lost his previous anger.
"Taoist Gathering Spirit Array? Old Demon, what is this thing and what is its use?" When Fu Tianyu heard the word "gathering spirit", he immediately thought of something, but wasn't sure.
"Taoist Gathering Spirit Array is an auxiliary array that Taoist practitioners draw when they practice. It can accelerate the absorption of the spirit energy from heaven and earth. With the assistance of this Gathering Spirit Array during training, it can achieve twice the result with half the effort." The Demon King explained carefully.
Fu Tianyu's saliva immediately flowed down. This was definitely a good thing, but then, Fu Tianyu's face fell.
"Old Demon, are you playing tricks on me? The technique I'm practicing is the Nine Fire Extreme Flame. This thing is cultivated with my own yang qi. This Gathering Spirit Array is completely unnecessary."
The Demon King was speechless for a moment. At this time, he realized that Fu Tianyu's training at the moment seemed not to need the Gathering Spirit Array.
"Kid, what do you want? Just tell me." When the Demon King was frustrated in his heart, it was just asking you to tell me how to draw the circle.
"How do I know what you can do? Eh, right, Old Demon, you seem to be quite familiar with the array. Why don't you teach me all the arrays you know?" Fu Tianyu suddenly thought that this array seemed very useful. If not now, when would he do it?
"I spit at you, kid. You're delusional." The Demon King was furious.
"Old Demon, what's the use of keeping it to yourself? Even if the Soul Pendant is obtained, you as a Demon King still need to set up an array, right? So it's better to teach me something practical. At most, I can find more food for you in the future. How about that?" Fu Tianyu wasn't discouraged.
"That's not possible. This Taoist array was obtained from that old Taoist through great difficulty. Giving it to you is a huge loss." The Demon King still didn't agree. He almost lost to that old Taoist before, and the Demon King survived a narrow escape to get those treasures.
Fu Tianyu couldn't help but feel helpless. This old demon was really stingy.
"Old fellow, I'm afraid of you now. So, besides teaching me the summoning array, you can also teach me another form of concealment spell. You know, I'm just a hunted soul. Maybe I can use it in the future." Fu Tianyu knew that the Demon King wouldn't easily give in. After thinking for a while, he said.
Although he didn't know if the Demon King could create such spells, it wasn't his problem.
"Concealment spells?" The Demon King fell into deep thought. After obtaining these spells, he didn't use them often, so when Fu Tianyu mentioned it, he couldn't immediately recall them.
After a long time, the Demon King reacted.
"Kid, you're lucky. There really is a concealment spell. But this spell is not easy to set up. Are you sure you want to learn it?" The Demon King asked worriedly, because the spell he knew wasn't that easy to set up.
"To learn? Of course, it's for my future survival. You don't want to see me being chased to the point where there's no way out, do you?" Fu Tianyu heard this and couldn't help but be overjoyed.
This was definitely a big deal. If it weren't for the Demon King being overly stingy, Fu Tianyu really wanted to dig out everything in his stomach.
"Alright, I'll teach you these two spells. But first, tell me exactly how to multitask." The Demon King was extremely frustrated. If he couldn't guess how Fu Tianyu did it, he wouldn't do this losing-money deal.
Fu Tianyu knew that the Demon King would keep his word. Besides, he wasn't afraid that the Demon King would go back on his word. So he told him his insights.
The Demon King didn't speak for a long time. But seeing the twisted expression on his Soul King symbol, Fu Tianyu knew that this guy was very angry. The consequence was that he had no choice but to give in.
"Kid, you tricked me. That's it. I'll report you, you bastard." The Demon King finally got out a sentence after a long time, leaving Fu Tianyu in a great mood. The hardships he suffered a few days ago were finally coming back.
"Hey, old fellow, I didn't trick you. This is the best method. Only I know it, it's a secret technique." Fu Tianyu laughed heartily.
The Iron Fool was thinking about what Fu Tianyu had said before. Hearing his laughter, he thought he was doing something wrong. But then, he didn't pay much attention. The way Fu Tianyu described multitasking opened a different door for him. The Iron Fool was a person obsessed with martial arts, and he couldn't let go of such a method. Now he was thinking it over in his heart.
Fu Tianyu was in a great mood and didn't pay attention to the Demon King anymore. The matter of the spells wasn't urgent. Instead, although he had now mastered the simplest simultaneous drawing of circles and frames with both hands, there was still a lot of difficulty in applying it to his cultivation.
After all, Nine Fire Extreme Flame and Dragon God Transformation were not as simple as circles and frames. He still had a long way to go.
The valley fell into calm again. Fu Tianyu gained some initial experience and began to apply the multitasking method practically to his training. Otherwise, it would just be empty talk.
Although their situation was still safe for now, Fu Tianyu had a premonition that such a peaceful life might not last long.
He resumed practicing Dragon God Transformation and had a strange feeling. It was very different from practicing wholeheartedly before. It seemed that now he could clearly see his training from the perspective of an observer, while in fact, he was still the same person.
"It seems that I really got the hang of it." Fu Tianyu was overjoyed. After completing one set of Dragon God Transformation, he took a short rest and immediately began to try.
He resumed his slow movements and tried to apply the Nine Fire Extreme Flame technique while performing Dragon God Transformation.
Sure enough, at this time, Fu Tianyu felt that the Nine Fire Extreme Flame technique was running along with the slow movements of Dragon God Transformation. Although it was extremely unsuccessful and often interrupted, it was much better than the previous situation where he couldn't keep up.
"Finally, it's working. Damn it, it wasn't easy." Fu Tianyu finally realized that he had finally accomplished it.
After the first experience, one becomes familiar with it. In the following days, Fu Tianyu continuously practiced and experimented. Every time he was interrupted, he would summarize what he had learned. Through this trial and error process, on the third day, he finally managed to complete a combination of the Dragon God Transformation and the Nine Fire Extreme Flame.
When he cast the Dragon God Transformation, the Fire Suppression Extreme Flame technique in his body was in operation. This was a new sensation.
With the successful completion of his training, Fu Tianyu finally got what he had desired. Although he had not yet experienced the feeling that the old ghost mentioned of accelerating the training of the Nine Fire Extreme Flame, even being able to focus on two tasks simultaneously was already enough to give him a good time for a while.
