“It’s happening again!”

Upon noticing Dan Bao’s transformation within the dust, Lu Dong’s expression suddenly became excited.

Unlike the last time when he indirectly observed Dan Bao’s state changes through the big screen inside the Lanqiu Arena, this time he witnessed Dan Bao’s progress from downfall to rise in close proximity.

Comparing its mutation pattern with some records of ancestors he had seen in his memory, Lu Dong found that they had an astonishing consistency.

Yes!

It matches!

If it was just a guess before, this time it was a complete confirmation. Dan Bao possesses the potential to enhance the Capturing Fire Secret Technique further, and thus to touch an even more powerful secret art.

But so far, it seems that Dan Bao can’t control it well and use it actively, it more passively reveals it.

Thinking of this, a thoughtful look emerged on Lu Dong’s face.

The smoke gradually dissipated, and Dan Bao, whose state was almost restored to its peak, quickly returned to Qin Lang’s side, his face showing a bit of excitement.

Obviously, although he didn’t know exactly what was going on, repeating his previous actions and once again absorbing the energy around him to restore himself was a great encouragement to Dan Bao.

“Mr. Lu Dong, did you notice anything?” Qin Lang hugged Dan Bao and rubbed it as encouragement, then looked at Lu Dong.

He had noticed Mr. Lu Dong’s change of expression. If Mr. Lu Dong could give him some pointers this time, it would be even better.

“If it was a guess before, now I’m sure.” Lu Dong sighed lightly, with a hint of envy.

According to the records of his predecessors, touching another lost secret technique through the Capturing Fire Secret Technique is possible, but it demands highly of certain talents.

If the talent is not reached, one may never be able to touch a more powerful level in his lifetime. If the talent is reached, it may be as simple as eating and drinking.

Before he met Qin Lang, he was skeptical about this.

As the old saying goes, diligence can make up for the weakness. If once is not enough, he would try more times. Could that really prevent him from touching the mysterious secret technique?

Then many years of experience gave him a slap in the face.

Not touching it at all.

At this moment, seeing Qin Lang’s Food Spirit easily touch that secret technique, he felt a rush of mixed feelings.

“Follow me.” He beckoned to Qin Lang, Lu Dong stepped towards the Yan Yao Stone platform from the last time he met. Also, he randomly gestured to the watching Spirit Chefs around, “Well, hurry up and train!”

Knowing that they are not qualified to know what’s coming up next, these Spirit Chefs tactfully returned to their training equipment.

Perhaps, the abnormality of Qin Lang stimulated them, their training became noticeably more serious.

“Let’s follow.”

Qin Lang, with his two Food Spirits, quickly followed behind Lu Dong.

The stone platform split again, accompanied by the astonishing heat upsurge, the path they trod last time appeared before Qin Lang’s eyes.

As they walked into it, the stone platform folds back, insulating everything from the outside world.

“The Capturing Fire Secret Technique is actually not complete.”

Just like last time, Lu Dong started speaking while walking down the passage.

The first sentence he said made Qin Lang couldn’t help but widen his eyes.

“Incomplete?” Qin Lang couldn’t help but twitch his mouth, “What does the complete secret art look like?”

“This …” Lu Dong’s voice paused slightly, not answering the question directly, “Last time, I mentioned the origin of secret arts to you, remember?”

“I remember.” Qin Lang nodded, “Secret arts are special combat skills that developed and expanded before the Spirit Chef Association discovered combined battle skills, created and perfected by many predecessors, until today.”

“Good.” Lu Dong nodded slightly, “Actually, secret arts have some characteristics that combined battle skills do not have.”

“Although different combined battle skills have their strengths and weaknesses, because combined battle skills and combat skills themselves have a variable upper and lower limit, it is very difficult to clearly define their strengths and weaknesses.”

“For example, the ‘Full Firepower’ combat skill. If your Food Spirit displays it, there will be no small difference from my Food Spirit. Perhaps other Spirit Chefs have figured out a combined combat skill of ‘Full Firepower” and ‘Thought Waves’, but it is completely different from yours.”

“That’s true.” Qin Lang nodded in agreement.

Combined battle skills have no fixed formula, even if the same two combat skills are combined, under the different insights of different Spirit Chefs and Food Spirits, different answers may be obtained.

According to Zhou Tianhao, he has even encountered a Food Spirit that can display two different combined battle skills with two combat skills. This situation is very rare, but not impossible.

Even if two Food Spirits really mastered the same combined battle skill, the results they display may also be different.

The uniqueness of the Food Spirit is not only reflected in form.

Therefore, it is impossible to clearly distinguish the strengths and weaknesses of combined battle skills and to grade different combined battle skills.

“But secret techniques are different. They are combat skills that can be mastered by different Food Spirits, and the results displayed are the same.” Lu Dong’s voice took a turn.

“Based on the average level of many performers, the strength of the secret techniques can be clearly differentiated.”

Hearing this, Qin Lang had an idea, “Are there different levels for secret techniques?”

“Correct.” Lu Dong turned back, gave Qin Lang an approving look, “Indeed, secret techniques have different levels, although now, as the secret techniques diminish, it is seldom mentioned.”

“The level distinction of secret techniques, like the star rating of Food Spirits, is divided into seven levels, ranging from one star to seven stars.”

Qin Lang nodded in comprehension, then asked the most crucial question, “What star rating is the Capturing Fire Secret Technique?”

“Capturing Fire Secret Technique, let’s call it Three Stars.” Lu Dong casually spoke, “In super high temperature environments, it greatly enhances Food Spirits. But its shortcomings are equally obvious, hence the overall rating is not high.”

Qin Lang nodded in understanding.

If you were to fight in places like the mouth of a volcano, Capturing Fire Secret Technique can continuously restore the state of Food Spirits, it’s very powerful.

But such environments are hard to come by, and at other times this secret technique is quite useless, it hardly comes in handy.

“But…” Lu Dong’s voice took a turn, returning to the original topic of conversation, “As I just mentioned, the Capturing Fire Secret Technique is not complete.”

“Or should I say, Capturing Fire Secret Technique is actually a simplified version of a powerful secret technique… no, it should be an ultra-simplified version.”

Qin Lang’s mouth twitched a bit.

How much must it be simplified, for Mr. Lu Dong to describe it with such a modifier?

But then, Qin Lang couldn’t help feeling a bit of expectation in his heart.

If the Capturing Fire Secret Technique is an ultra-simplified version of a powerful secret technique, how strong could the original secret technique be?

Just as he thought of this, he heard Lu Dong speak leisurely.

“That secret technique, it ranks in the top ten among all secret techniques.”
