This technique is called "Golden Needle Technique". Its method of execution is roughly to condense spiritual energy into tiny golden needles and shoot them at the enemy at extremely high speed.

Though small, the golden needles are incredibly powerful and versatile, making them difficult to defend against. During training, one must concentrate spiritual energy at the fingertips and then shoot them out using a special technique. As one's cultivation level increases, the number and power of the golden needles will gradually increase.

Lin Yitang's previous Fire Phoenix Technique, Water Dragon Technique, and Childbirth Technique were all wide-range attacks on enemies, but none of them were as precise as this.

More importantly, she felt that this kind of magic might be able to trick people.

According to the spell's description, this spell is extremely small; if the speed is fast enough, others won't even be able to see where it is, making it perfect for a sneak attack.

She's had too many fair and square matches, so she might as well learn how to ambush others.

With that in mind, she took the book "The Art of Golden Needle" and went downstairs.

Just as they were about to ask the disciple in charge to make a copy, a familiar figure walked in; it seemed to be Fan Niannian.

"Senior Sister Fan?" Lin Yitang called out tentatively.

Upon hearing this, the figure turned around, and it was indeed Fan Niannian.

"Junior Sister Lin!"

Fan Niannian was delighted to see Lin Yitang and quickly walked up to her, "Long time no see! How have you been lately?"

Lin Yitang smiled and said, "Not bad. How about you? What brings you here?"

"I'm fine," Fan Niannian replied. "I came to the library to return a copy of the illustrated guide to spiritual herbs that I borrowed last time."

As she spoke, her gaze fell on the jade slip in Lin Yitang's hand, and she asked, "Junior Sister, are you here to borrow a cultivation technique?"

Lin Yitang nodded and said, "Yes, it's a spell with the metal element."

"I knew it!"

Fan Niannian said with envy, "I've already heard that you've mastered three advanced techniques, Junior Sister. That's amazing!"

"No way." Lin Yitang said a little embarrassedly, "Didn't you also learn the advanced healing technique? To be honest, I think Senior Sister Fan is also very suitable for our Thousand Paths Peak. Her magical talent is too strong."

"Sigh, don't even mention it. I've hardly learned anything. It's been over a year, and I'm still only at the beginner level, not even reaching a basic level. How can I compare to you, who has already mastered it?"

Fan Niannian sighed.

As she spoke, she asked with concern, "By the way, junior sister, I heard recently that the inner sect has been collectively ostracizing you and has even formed a team. Have they come to cause you any trouble?"

Are you referring to the anti-Lin alliance?

Lin Yitang said, "Oh, they came to see me."

"So are you okay?"

Fan Niannian immediately became worried and said, "The inner disciples are all strong, none of them are easy to deal with. Each of them would be a top-tier existence in the outer sect. Although I know your strength, you were definitely not defeated, but you weren't injured anywhere, were you?"

"of course not."

Lin Yitang smiled and shook her head, "They sent a sword cultivator at the ninth level of Qi Refining, but he didn't even touch my skin."

A sword cultivator at the ninth level of Qi Refining?

Fan Niannian was shocked. "Could it be that famous Li Feng from the inner sect? You actually defeated him?"

"Hmm, quite strong," Lin Yitang said. "It can withstand two of my advanced spells, so it's not weak."

Fan Niannian's mouth gaped open, like an egg, her face filled with disbelief.

"He's more than just strong! Even someone like me who doesn't pay much attention to sect information knows that Li Feng is famous outside the sect for his title of Sword Overlord."

Lin Yitang tilted her head, puzzled, and said, "Really? I think it's alright. Maybe it's because they're a level below me."

Fan Niannian wanted to cover her face, but then she remembered something and said, "By the way, since you defeated the strongest Qi Refining Ninth Level expert, you should be fighting the inner disciples of Qi Refining Tenth Level next. Let me tell you about the strong ones in the inner sect."

So Fan Niannian began to talk about some of the strong members of the inner sect, including their names, the peaks they came from, what moves they used, their physical characteristics, and their ranking in terms of strength.

"The two strongest Qi Refining stage disciples in the inner sect are Ye Qiuli, the genius of Danfu Peak, and Mo Ziheng of Yijian Peak."

She said, "These two are recognized as the best of the younger generation in the sect. Ye Qiuli is skilled in ice magic, while Mo Ziheng is proficient in swordsmanship. Both of them are extremely powerful."

Lin Yitang nodded and noted them down one by one.

Some of these inner sect experts' names were familiar, while others were unfamiliar. Those that were familiar were probably mentioned in the original text; they might be cannon fodder or supporting characters, but I couldn't remember them very clearly.

After all, who can remember all the characters and events in a novel so clearly? At most, she can only remember the major events and some important characters. Besides, more than a year has passed.

However, the fact that the original owner had been in the inner sect yet still didn't recognize so many people surprised her.

This shows that the original owner really stayed in the house cultivating every day and didn't care much about the other people in the sect.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but ask Fan Niannian curiously, "By the way, how do you know so much information when you don't pay attention to events within the sect? Do you have some kind of channel?"

Fan Niannian touched the tip of her nose, a little embarrassed, and said, "So these are not my summaries, but what Junior Brother Wei, Junior Brother Liu and Junior Brother Song told me. They care about you a lot, and they all said they would give you advice."

Lin Yitang was both amused and exasperated. She could only thank them for their kindness and then say goodbye to Fan Niannian.

After making a copy of the cultivation technique, she took the jade slip and returned to her cave to begin practicing the Golden Needle Technique.

However, unlike the previous times, this time the Golden Needle Technique did not seem to go so smoothly, stumping her from the very beginning.

Controlling spiritual energy precisely to the size of a needle is on a completely different level of difficulty compared to other spells. Generally speaking, cultivators can only control spiritual power to a size the size of a fist at most; anything smaller and they can no longer maintain its form.

The Golden Needle Technique, on the other hand, requires controlling spiritual energy down to the size of a hair, which demands an extremely high level of control over spiritual power.

Following the instructions of the cultivation technique, Lin Yitang attempted to condense spiritual energy at her fingertips and then shoot it out using a special method. However, no matter how hard she tried, the spiritual energy she shot out could not be condensed into a needle shape; it was either too large or too scattered, and she could never meet the requirements.

However, she wasn't in a hurry. Advanced spells were inherently difficult to learn, and it was normal not to master them quickly. Besides, she already had some experience in learning advanced spells, and judging from her current progress, she should be able to finish learning them within three or four months.

Then she remembered that, speaking of cultivation techniques, the main peak had given her a cultivation technique during the apprenticeship ceremony. However, she had put it aside because she was busy teaching classes.

What the sect leader gave her must have been something extraordinary.

But what exactly is it? Giving her a cultivation technique? Did the sect leader already know she would become a disciple of Thousand Paths Peak?

Filled with curiosity, she took out her cultivation technique and probed the jade slip with her divine sense.

When she saw it, her jaw dropped.
