Chapter 2273: Very Poor Talent
Luo Tian looked at Dongfang Yan in confusion and asked in surprise.
Everyone else was emitting a glow, but why was it that when it came to me, it turned into black smoke?
Is this Xuantian Treasure Mirror broken?
As Luo Tian spoke, he looked the Xuantian Treasure Mirror up and down, but did not find any damage, which made him even more puzzled.
At this moment, Dongfang Yan's pupils shrank slightly. He slowly stood up and said, "This black smoke... I have traveled the world for so many years and witnessed countless people's trials, but this is the first time I have seen such thick black smoke!"
Hearing this, You Huang glared at the side and said, "As expected of Lord Luo Tian, your evaluation is so high."
As she spoke, she turned to look at Dongfang Yan and asked, "Senior, this black smoke is equivalent to how many rays of sunlight?"
As soon as these words were spoken, Luo Tian beside him also became curious.
He really wanted to know how talented he was in deduction.
However, at this moment, Dongfang Yan took a deep breath and said, "Let me put it this way..."
"Yeah!" Youhuang and others looked expectant.
Dongfang Yan paused for a moment before continuing, "Generally speaking, when ordinary people test it, the Xuantian Treasure Mirror will not react. Only those with exceptional talent will experience a rosy glow! As for the black smoke..."
He glanced at Luo Tian before continuing, "Only people with extremely poor talent will produce black smoke!"
"Huh?" Luo Tian and You Huang were both stunned when these words came out.
Luo Tian’s talent is actually so poor?
At this moment, You Huang suddenly thought of something and said in a trembling voice, "So, you said before that you had never seen such thick black smoke..."
Dongfang Yan looked at her and nodded, saying, "That's right! Master Luo Tian is the worst talent I've ever seen in all my life, bar none!"
For a moment, the world seemed to be quiet.
Luo Tian, in particular, froze on the spot, as if petrified.
You know, ever since I entered the world of cultivation, I have always been able to learn things at a glance.
No matter whether it is martial arts, soul arts, or even alchemy and weapon refining, nothing can stump him.
In terms of talent, he is at the top level.
But now, when it comes to the art of deduction, his talent is useless?
Not only is it useless, but it's also the worst one.
How could he accept this?
Seeing this, Brother Yun hurriedly comforted him, "Luo Tian, don't worry. It doesn't matter if you don't learn deduction techniques! Besides, what if you have poor talent? You have a natural understanding, so if you lack talent, you can still rely on your understanding to cultivate..."
However, before he could finish his words, Dongfang Yan interrupted him with a wave of his hand, saying, "Absolutely not!"
"Hmm?" Brother Yun turned and looked at him.
Dongfang Yan said solemnly, "Do you know why I have to do this test before I start teaching?"
Without waiting for Brother Yun to answer, he continued, "Talent in the art of deduction isn't just about comprehension, cultivation speed, and deduction ability. There's another very important factor, and that's... Heaven's Way Backlash!"
"Heaven's law backfires?" You Huang was puzzled.
Dongfang Yan nodded and said, "The deduction technique of our Tianyan Sect is different from ordinary deduction methods. Instead, it directly penetrates the secrets of heaven and thus obtains the truth of all things! Therefore, our deduction technique is the most accurate, and at the same time, the person being deduced is almost unable to sense it!"
"But it is precisely because of this that we will face the backlash of the Heavenly Dao when we deduce it! But the extent of the backlash endured by different people will also be different!"
"If two people with similar deduction skills were to deduce the same thing, the one with better talent would only suffer a minor headache if they were to face the backlash of the heavens, but the one with less talent would likely be seriously injured and take years to recover!"
"And this little brother Luo Tian's talent, his speed in cultivating the deduction technique, is thousands of times slower than that of an ordinary person. Moreover, even if he succeeds in cultivating it, the divine punishment he will endure will probably be thousands of times greater than that of an ordinary person!"
"If the practice fails, it's fine. But if it succeeds, a random deduction of tomorrow's weather might cost him his life!"
After hearing this, Youhuang and Brother Yun changed their expressions at the same time.
"So scary?" Youhuang asked in surprise.
Brother Yun, on the other hand, had an ugly expression on his face.
He originally thought that with Luo Tian's extraordinary talent, after mastering the Tianyan Sect's deduction technique, he would be able to deduce some things.
But I didn't expect it to turn out like this!
He secretly glanced at Luo Tian, but found that Luo Tian was still in a petrified state, and obviously had not recovered from the previous blow.
"Oh, forget it! I'll think of a solution later!" Brother Yun said silently in his heart.
Meanwhile, Dongfang Yan turned around and looked at You Huang, saying, "Miss You Huang, don't worry about anything else for now. Try to memorize the principles of this deduction technique. If you have any questions, feel free to ask me!"
Hearing this, You Huang also knew that this opportunity was rare, and immediately nodded and said, "Yes!"
As she spoke, she immediately focused and began to study the scriptures.
But after she started studying, she was surprised to find that the deduction technique of Tianyan Sect was indeed the most mysterious scripture in the world.
After just a cursory reading, she felt as if she was in a whole new world and was immersed in it.
While Youhuang was practicing diligently, Luo Tian on the other side finally recovered gradually.
"Damn it, why don't I have talent?" Luo Tian said angrily.
Seeing this, Brother Yun smiled bitterly and said, "How can anyone in this world master everything? You've already reached the pinnacle of martial arts, soul arts, alchemy, and weapon arts. Even if you don't learn the art of deduction, what good will it do you?"
But Luo Tian frowned and said, "But I'm not willing to give up!"
As he spoke, he looked towards the scripture and frowned, "Do you think that broken mirror might be inaccurate in its testing?"
"Huh? What do you mean?" Brother Yun asked in confusion.
Luo Tian blinked and said, "Exactly. Actually, my talent is too strong, beyond the scope of his mirror's testing. So he misjudged my talent as extremely poor?"
Brother Yun scratched his head and said, "It should be... not possible, right?"
Luo Tian slapped his thigh and said, "Who cares? I'll know if I try it myself."
"Try? No, have you forgotten what Dongfang Yan just said?" Brother Yun said nervously.
Luo Tian waved his hand and said, "It's okay. If I feel something is wrong, just stop!"
Brother Yun was about to persuade him, but Dongfang Yan beside him smiled and said, "Just let him try!"
Brother Yun said worriedly: "But didn't you say..."
Dongfang Yan waved his hand and said, "Don't worry. I said there are dangers, but only if he can succeed in practicing! But with his talent, practicing my deduction technique is thousands of times slower than that of an ordinary person. How can he succeed? Once he encounters setbacks, he will naturally give up. If you don't let him try, he won't give up!"
