237: Countermeasures!

After Feng Xi obtained the Medicinal Pill, he did not stay long at the Four Seas Sect and quickly departed amidst the farewells of the crowd.

But Li Qi knew very well that Feng Xi hadn't gone far.

The other party was temporarily staying in Changgan City, two thousand li east of the Four Seas Sect, and they agreed to meet again in Changgan City a month later.

Li Qi had bought himself a month's time, naturally because he had come up with a relatively reliable countermeasure.

While feigning compliance with Feng Xi earlier, Li Qi suddenly thought of the Elder who could foresee future calamities, which instantly opened up new ideas for him.

The Art of Deduction!

In the Immortal Martial World, there was indeed a Legacy of the Art of Deduction.

It was just that the Art of Deduction was extremely difficult to Cultivate, notoriously obscure and hard to understand; many people practiced it their entire lives without achieving any success, wasting a great deal of time.

According to Li Qi's understanding, it seemed that only Elder Gu Mihua in the entire Four Seas Sect had truly mastered the Art of Deduction.

Of course, it wasn't that no one else Cultivated this Dao besides Gu Mihua; it was just that these people's practice was as good as none, so there was no need to mention them.

And Li Qi was precisely interested in Elder Gu's Art of Deduction.

For him, the difficulty of Cultivating a spell was meaningless; as long as he confirmed that the spell could be Cultivated, and as long as he had enough Potential Points in his hand, he could quickly elevate any spell to an extremely terrifying level of mastery in an instant!

Even the Art of Deduction was no exception!

When in doubt... first divine!

This was Li Qi's plan.

He could completely go and learn the Art of Deduction first, and then divine for himself, predicting the fortune and misfortune of going to the Far East.

If it was a Major Calamity... then he would rather die than go to the Far East; he would just stay in the Four Seas Sect and retire. Let the Phoenix Lord come knocking if she dared.

If it was a Major Auspice... then what harm was there in taking that journey?

This way, he could advance or retreat, which was better than worrying aimlessly here, right?

Moreover, the Art of Deduction was quite useful, not only for dealing with matters like the Phoenix Lord's invitation, but also for other difficult decisions in the future. He could still use the Art of Deduction to calculate and seek a way to break the situation.

Therefore, he was determined to learn the Art of Deduction!

After clarifying his thoughts, Li Qi immediately took action.

He didn't go directly to Elder Gu Mihua but instead went to the Scripture Pavilion first. The Scripture Pavilion housed most of the Cultivation Techniques and Secret Manuals of the Four Seas Sect, and it was naturally possible that the Art of Deduction was stored there.

Upon arriving at the Scripture Pavilion, Li Qi searched floor by floor and indeed found quite a lot.

"I didn't expect that there would actually be so many collections of the Art of Deduction in this Four Seas Sect!"

Li Qi's heart filled with joy as he looked at the large stack of Secret Manuals in his hand, his heart blooming with happiness.

The Art of Eight Characters, Zi Wei Dou Shu, Six Yao Divination, Seven Luminaries and Four Auxiliaries, Character Divination, Xuan Kong Flying Stars...

There were more than a dozen different types of the Art of Deduction!

These Secret Manuals had yellowed paper and were covered in dust, indicating that they had not been read for a long time and had accumulated dust for ages.

But Li Qi didn't mind; he found all the Art of Deduction in the Scripture Pavilion and exchanged them all, as he had the gate master token and could exchange for Cultivation Techniques without cost.

After flipping through all these Art of Deduction and recording them all into the System, Li Qi said in his mind.

"System, analyze and deduce all the Art of Deduction... and fuse them into one perfect Art of Deduction."

The Art of Deduction Li Qi collected were too many and too varied; if he strengthened these Art of Deduction separately, it would not only be inconvenient but also difficult to use later.

It was better to discard the dross and keep the essence, fusing these dozen or so Art of Deduction into one. Anyway, his System had the deduction function, so he could just leave it to the System.

And the System did not disappoint Li Qi; after a vigorous and intense deduction...

A brand new Art of Deduction was born!

[Deduction complete!]

[Obtained a new Art of Deduction... Zhou Tian Divine Calculation!]

Li Qi's eyes widened, and he exclaimed in surprise, "Zhou Tian Divine Calculation?!"

This Zhou Tian Divine Calculation absorbed the strengths of a hundred schools, integrating the advantages of over a dozen Art of Deduction, making it much more effective than any single Art of Deduction.

This method is the Fusion of the Dao of Heaven and Earth, capable of observing the changes of Heaven and Earth, comprehending the true meaning of Yin and Yang and the Five Elements, using celestial phenomena, geography, and human affairs as mirrors to discern the laws of the Universe and deduce the fortune and misfortune of the future.

With the Zhou Tian Divine Calculation in hand, Li Qi didn't delay and spent 900,000 Potential Points to elevate this Art of Deduction to the Major Achievement realm!

After finishing all this, Li Qi let out a slight sigh of relief, then found Sect Leader Xiang Zhi Zhou and stated his purpose.

"Revered Master, Disciple has a request."

"Oh? What is it?"

"Disciple has recently become immersed in the Dao of Deduction and intends to visit Elder Gu Mihua... I hope Revered Master can introduce me."
