Urban Seduction: Housewives Club

Chapter 229 Two More Grandmaster-Level Bodyguards



Tan Ailing also exclaimed in admiration, "I've heard before about a 'Crowning Ceremony' in Buddhism, which can transfer one person's cultivation to another. But I never thought you would take it a step further and have the entire universe 'crown' you. That's truly remarkable..."

"I'm not as amazing as you think..." Eric felt a bit embarrassed by the praise.

Tang Feiyan completely disregarded Eric's modesty and asked directly, "Eric, can your divine power be used on us? I also want to immediately raise my power to your level!"

While Tan Ailing didn't speak, the look in her eyes fully conveyed her current mindset.

"I'm afraid not."

Eric shook his head slightly.

"This kind of divine power is too fierce. If your absorption and fusion speed of spiritual power cannot keep up with the speed of the 'Crowning Ceremony,' then the only fate waiting for you is to explode and die! I dare to do this because of my chaotic constitution!"

Tang Feiyan sighed with regret, murmuring enviously about the chaotic constitution.

"The chaotic constitution is truly favored by heaven and earth. Not only does it lead the way in traversing time and space, but now it also takes advantage of absorbing spiritual power and practicing internal skills. How can others live like this..."

"For me, the greatest use of the chaotic constitution is its ability to transform spiritual power into magic power in a very short time!"

Surprised, Tan Ailing asked, "The chaotic constitution has this function?"n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

"Yes! I have tried it. Through the chaotic constitution, I can easily transform spiritual power into true power, Buddha power, and even magic power!" Eric's eyes were full of joy.

"With this divine power, even if my magic power is exhausted, I can replenish it in tens of minutes. Although it can't be compared to when I was in Celestia, it's much better than before, when I had to replenish my magic power for two or three months after using a few top-level spells. Now I can use magic without any restraint!"

"Eric, congratulations!" Tan Ailing and Tang Feiyan congratulated in unison.

Eric chuckled and asked, "During my seclusion, what have you been busy with?"

"Besides comforting Little Feng Qian, Feiyan and I have selected some martial arts from Sakya's Moko to practice!" Speaking of martial arts, Tan Ailing's eyes involuntarily lit up, and her tone was somewhat excited.

"Selected martial arts again?" Eric was puzzled. "Didn't you have enough martial arts from the Medicine King Sect last time?"

"The martial arts practiced in the Medicine King Sect, except for Ailing's 'Ice Heart Jue,' are only first-class at best!" Tang Feiyan interjected with emotion, "But the martial arts in Sakya's Moko are all top-notch. Of course, we aim high..."

Eric nodded understandingly. Although Sakya's Moko only had about fifty sets, far less than the nearly a thousand volumes of martial arts in the Medicine King Sect's martial arts pavilion, the quality was incomparable.

What's even more gratifying was that Sakya's Moko was not limited to Tibetan martial arts but also included the martial arts of Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism from the Central Plains, as well as the exotic and esoteric arts from the Western Regions and India.

The foundational skills Eric used, such as The Muscle Tendon Change Classic and Bone Marrow Cleansing Technique, also came from there.

"Ah..." Eric smiled slightly. "So, what martial arts have you both learned?"

"Ailing said, 'Greed leads to indigestion,' so we each chose one to practice!" Tang Feiyan wrinkled her nose.

"I chose a nameless grappling technique that combines yoga and acupoint techniques. I gave it a name, 'Entangling Silk Hands.' Its greatest feature is that when executed, it's as flexible as boneless, with curves and straight lines as desired, making it impossible to defend against..."

Tang Feiyan paused here, rolled her eyes at Eric, and continued, "Of course, even if I practice this 'Entangling Silk Hands' to the highest level, it still won't match your abnormal performance just now..."

Knowing that Tang Feiyan had just experienced some "fright," Eric shrugged, said nothing more, and turned his gaze to Tan Ailing.

"I'm used to using powerful martial arts, so this time I chose a similar type. It's said to be the ultimate skill of the Quanzhen Sect—Wu Tian Xin Palm! This martial art is similar to Shaolin's Great Strength Vajra Palm, not only excelling in physical attack power but also carrying a 'strange power' that can subdue demons and evil spirits. It has an attack bonus effect when dealing with dark creatures like vampires."

"If you encounter any difficulties in your practice, just tell me. I can help you with them..."

"Che..." Tang Feiyan disdainfully remarked, "Just because you have surpassed us in power doesn't mean you can dictate to us. No matter how much the chaotic constitution helps you, your martial arts attainment can't surpass Ailing's, who has been practicing for twenty years, in just twenty days..."

"Don't underestimate me," Eric, who had conducted a "scientific analysis" of martial arts foundations and consulted dozens of divine techniques, said somewhat arrogantly, "My martial arts attainment is indeed above yours..."

"You're just boasting..."

Time slipped away quietly as Eric and the others chatted and bantered. Unbeknownst to them, the sun had risen, brightening the sky, and they all noticed two strangers entering the living quarters.

Without much thought, they realized that besides Luoli and Sun Clouds, no one else could have come here at this early hour without alerting the perimeter guards and the four major secret guards.

Eric stood up and said to Tan Ailing and Tang Feiyan, "Let's go down..."

Tan Ailing and Tang Feiyan both nodded and got up. However, the latter said with a hint of jealousy, "Eric, you're so eager to see those two that you can't wait to go down and greet them yourself..."

"Smack!"

Eric somewhat helplessly slapped Tang Feiyan's pert buttocks and said, "Where are you getting at! I just want to take advantage of my little mastery of divine power to help them overcome the fatal flaw in the Yin-Yang Ecstasy Mantra..."

Sticking out her tongue, Tang Feiyan walked out with Eric under Tan Ailing's gaze.

When they descended the stairs, they saw Luoli and Sun Clouds sitting properly in the living room. Upon seeing Eric, the master and disciple were overjoyed and got up to greet him, "Rinpoche, you've emerged from seclusion..."

Eric nodded to them and said, "Follow me to the meditation room."

Sun Clouds was somewhat bewildered, but Luoli, inexplicably excited, exclaimed, "Rinpoche, are you... are you preparing to practice the Blissful Zen? But according to the rules, only Clouds can accompany you in your practice. I can only replace her if she makes a mistake..." Towards the latter part, Luoli's tone contained immense disappointment, even a hint of pain.

"Don't overthink it. I just want to help you both heal the injuries caused by the *Yin-Yang Ecstasy Mantra*!" Eric rolled his eyes. "Alright, let's go!"

"Yes, Rinpoche!" Judging from their tone and expression, the emotions of this master and disciple were complex, but there was undeniable joy in both.

In the meditation room, Eric didn't say much. He directly instructed the two to sit cross-legged and then used a Buddha sarira to slowly repair the hidden dangers in their bodies using his divine power.

After thirty-six cycles, Luoli and Sun Clouds had completely recovered from their chronic illnesses. Seeing that there was little consumption of the Buddha sarira, Eric decided to promote these two disciples to pre-heaven experts!

However, he regretted it soon after. Because the Yin-Yang Ecstasy Mantra, being a sacrificial practice, consumed too much energy! When the four major secret guards were promoted to pre-heaven experts, they only used the smallest Buddha sarira. However, these two disciples consumed two Buddha sariras, making them true pre-heaven experts!

Due to the special nature of the practice, even though Luoli and Sun Clouds had reached the pre-heaven realm, they couldn't practice any martial arts.

At most, they could practice some soundwave techniques and mental attack skills. However, the benefits for their future partners would be huge, so much so that even Eric couldn't help but feel a little envious of the men who would benefit from their physical and mental transformations!

After accepting Luoli and Sun Clouds' bows of gratitude, Eric didn't delay further and immediately had Sakya's two black guardian deities—Doje Zha and Xiaridong—summoned.

"Rinpoche, what orders do you have for your subordinates?" The two peak pre-heaven experts, who received the command and didn't dare to be negligent, hurriedly came and asked respectfully.

"I'm going to help you both!" Although he saw the puzzled look in Doje Zha and Xiaridong's eyes, Eric didn't explain. Instead, he pointed to the two super-miniature illusion magic arrays he had prepared in advance and said, "Sit inside, calm your mind, and don't think about anything!"

Out of respect for the living Buddha, the two "almost-grandmaster-level" individuals did not say much and sat down separately.

Seeing that they were ready, Eric activated the magic array and cast the "Illusion World Magic" spell!

Illusion World Magic, a skill from the Celestia Fairy's "Scroll of Mind Magic," allows individuals to live a lifetime in an illusion, experiencing a whole life within it.

The Illusion Realm Magic Array, a large-scale magic array used by the fairy clan to guard their territory, creates illusions for all beings with insufficient mental strength trapped within it, making them unaware of their actual whereabouts.

The combination of these two methods was the key to Doje Zha and Xiaridong's promotion.

The effect of Illusion World Magic lasts for over six hours with each casting. When Eric was preparing for the third casting, Doje Zha and Xiaridong finally achieved their promotion!

There were no earth-shattering sounds or dazzling lights, just a slight tremor from each person. If it weren't for Eric's true eyes seeing the liquid energy inside the two gradually solidifying, one might have thought they were just shifting their posture due to sitting for too long...
