“You actually know a saint-tier cultivation art?” Gu Xiuxun stared at Chen Ying in astonishment. She didn’t expect Sun Mo to be able to get it right. But after that, she grew puzzled. How did Sun Mo know this?
From the situation, Sun Mo didn’t seem to know this youth beforehand. Could it be the Ancient Dragon Capturing Hands? (Sun Mo must have touched this youth when he came here before us!) Gu Xiuxun could only think of this possibility. Although her deduction ability was very strong, no one could guess the existence of a divine skill like Divine Sight.
“Do you need to be so shocked?”
The papaya girl cocked her head and blinked. “Since Teacher says that he knows it, he naturally knows it!”
“Our teacher possesses the Ancient Dragon Capturing Hands. As long as he comes in contact with a person, he would know the condition of that person!”
Li Ziqi explained.
Chen Ying frowned. He wanted to say that this teacher hadn’t touched him. However, this wasn’t the main point. Now, how should he conceal the fact that he had a saint-tier cultivation art?
This cultivation art was something Chen Ying had found in a broken-down temple. Back then, there was heavy rain, and the sky was as dark as night. After a bolt of lightning broke apart the dilapidated roof of the temple, it struck a Buddha statue on the altar.
Then, the Buddha statue shattered, revealing the bones of an unknown lifeform. On the bones, there were characters inscribed and these words were precisely a record of the Dharma Skyshock Fist!
Chen Ying had never told anyone about this before. Even when during cultivation, he would proceed cautiously so he wouldn’t be noticed by others!
So what even if he was bullied and humiliated by Chen Liqi?
As long as he completed his cultivation of the Dharma Skyshock Fist, he would be able to get his revenge. Also, he would be able to stand at a height that he couldn’t imagine before.
His talent wasn’t good, but he had a saint-tier cultivation art!
This was Chen Ying’s trump card, but now, it had been discovered.
In an instant, Chen Ying felt a great terror. If this teacher wanted to seize it… It couldn’t be blamed on Chen Ying that he would think like that. Wealth would always stir the greed in people’s hearts. Besides, this was a saint-tier cultivation art, a precious treasure that countless cultivators would dream of obtaining. “Oi, what is with your expression? Do you think our teacher is a thief?”
Li Ziqi frowned. “Retract your filthy thoughts. Our teacher knows four kinds of saint-tier cultivation
arts!”
“What?”
Gu Xiuxun felt that she must have heard it wrongly. Hence, she involuntarily turned to glance at the little sunny egg. (How many saint-tier cultivation arts did you say Sun Mo knows? Four kinds?) However, before Gu Xiuxun could withstand this impact, a greater shock came. “Yeah, Teacher even taught me two of them!”
Lu Zhiruo nodded, proving Li Ziqi’s words. “Wait a minute!”
Gu Xiuxun raised her hand. “Stop for a while, let us make something clear. You know four kinds of saint-tier cultivation arts?” “Hmm, I think I know about six?” Other than the Grand Universe Formless Divine Art and Immemorial Vairocana, he also knew the Wind King Divine Steps. This was a movement technique, while the Wind King Divine Art was an archery-type cultivation art.
He also knew Xuanyuan Po’s Prairie Blazing Fire Spear Technique, but it was only at the elementary-grade. After that, the Nameless Nine Stances, an inferior-grade saint-tier cultivation art. He had copied it using Immemorial Vairocana.
Naturally, other than this, Sun Mo still knew quite a few cultivation arts, but he had no time to train in them.
“Brag, continue to brag!” Gu Xiuxun rolled her eyes. “If you really know six saint-tier cultivation arts, I will sleep three…no, ten days with you!”
Sun Mo was speechless. He subconsciously glanced at Gu Xiuxun’s chest. (Forget it, it’s better for me to remain silent because you are not my type!) “For us teachers, honesty is the best policy. If not, how can we be role models for our students?” said Gu Xiuxun.
Gu Xiuxun patted Sun Mo’s shoulder in the passing. She then used force and pulled him closer to ask. “You really know six types of saint-tier cultivation arts?”
Gu Xiuxun lowered her voice. Right now, her curiosity was off the charts. It felt like there were 1,000 cats squeezed inside her chest. Her heart was so itchy that it felt unbearable.
She wanted to ask about the names, yet she was embarrassed to do so!
“Yes!”
Sun Mo nodded.
Bang!
The masochist raised her hand and hammered Sun Mo’s chest. She knew that Sun Mo wasn’t someone who would speak without thinking. Hence, her face turned somewhat red.
(What should I do?)
(Should I really sleep with him for ten days?) (Aiya, how shameful…if he brings up some excessive postures, what should I do? Should I reject him or not?) (No. Gu Xiuxun, hurry up and abolish this thought. Do you know that you are betraying your future husband? Even if Sun Mo knows 100 types of saint-tier divine arts, you cannot sleep with him!)
Gu Xiuxun stared at Sun Mo.
(Ai!)
(It seems that he really knows them!)
Chen Ying started to frown. The first impression Sun Mo gave him was that he was a warm-hearted good teacher, but the logic told him it was impossible.
Who was so stupid to the extent that they would teach their saint-tier cultivation arts to others? Even for personal disciples, they had to study for several years or even tens of years, proving they were loyal before they would be deemed qualified to learn
Gu Xiuxun prodded Li Ziqi’s arm. “Are the three of you not curious about the saint-tier cultivation arts he knows?”
“Why should we be curious?”
The papaya girl didn’t understand.
“Hehe, we are not because we know them too!”
Li Ziqi smiled and gazed at Chen Ying complacently. (Hmph, you basically have no idea how noble our teacher is. He didn’t only teach us saint-tier cultivation arts, but he even told us the secret about Little Silver and allowed us to cultivate in the Wind King Divine Hall, an area with an abundance of spirit qi.) (Originally, all of these are Teacher’s private items!) Gu Xiuxun suddenly understood why these students loved and respected Sun Mo so much.
“I don’t believe it!”
Chen Ying still shook his head. If he was in Sun Mo’s shoes, he felt that even if he had a child in the future, he would only pass it down to a son and not a daughter. As for students, they shouldn’t even think about it!
“It’s fine regardless of whether you believe it or not.”
Sun Mo looked at the skinny youth. “Recently, do you feel your right chest and dantian hurting when you circulate the energy via the cultivation art? Also, the more you train, the more uncomfortable you feel? You would even occasionally cough up blood?” Chen Ying’s expression changed. Indeed, this situation started three months ago. “If you continue training in it, your four limbs will feel the piercing pain as well.” Sun Mo persuaded, he then gestured to his students to walk out of the alley. “Let’s leave.” “What should I do then?” Chen Ying frowned.
“Give up on the cultivation art or improve on it!”
Sun Mo gave the answer. Chen Ying wanted to laugh after hearing it, and even Gu Xiuxun was looking at Sun Mo. She wanted to ask if Sun Mo was actually a reliable person or not? Who would give up a saint-tier cultivation art?
As for improving it? There was no need to talk about this. Who could do it? Secondary saints might have this ability, but it was impossible for a youth like him to do it. Even Gu Xiuxun herself didn’t have an opportunity to get acquainted with a secondary saint.
“Farewell!”
Chen Ying shook his head. He must be crazy to actually believe in Sun Mo.
When Chen Ying walked a few meters away from the alley, he suddenly heard someone speaking again. “Oh ya, the cultivation art you are practicing is called the Dharma Skyshock Fist!”
This voice belonged to Sun Mo.
When Chen Ying heard this, his heart trembled. He subconsciously glanced at the surroundings with a nervous look on his face. What should he do if others were to hear it? (How does he know the name of my cultivation art?)
Chen Ying was filled with bewilderment. Speaking of which, should he seek Sun Mo’s guidance? His current training wasn’t as simple as hitting a bottleneck. Even his body seemed to grow weaker as he cultivated.
Naturally, if Sun Mo didn’t mention this, Chen Ying would always feel that it was because his talent was too inferior and he wasn’t qualified to cultivate this cultivation art. He wouldn’t feel that the Dharma Skyshock Fist had a problem.
“No, he is just a new teacher. How can he improve on a saint-tier cultivation art?”
Chen Ying had a self-mocking smile. He was thinking too much.
After returning to Ten Thousand Maples, Sun Mo got Ying Baiwu and Xuanyuan Po to guard the entrance. He was preparing to use the scarlet blood pill he had won from Gao Ben to attempt entering the seventh level of the blood-ignition realm. “Teacher, using medicine to break through will not be good for your future!”
Li Ziqi persuaded. Given her teacher’s current cultivation base, he had completely surpassed his peers. There was no need for him to take this risk.
“The next competition won’t be easy. A little bit stronger equals a little bit more hope.” Sun Mo didn’t dare to look down on the heroes of the world.
If he wanted the championship, he should pay a price!
As its name implied, the scarlet blood pill was completely red, as though it was a pellet formed of fresh blood. It would use its vast and powerful medicinal potency to ignite one’s blood and temper it, filtering out impurities and leaving behind pure blood essence and energy. For an ordinary person, if one drop of their blood was equal to one portion of energy, after experiencing the scarlet blood pill’s tempering, they would have five portions or even ten portions of energy per drop of blood.
Sun Mo admired the scarlet blood pill for a while before tossing it into his mouth. There was no need to chew it. The pill melted the instant it entered his mouth, and it transformed into a warm current that flowed into his stomach. It left behind a bloody taste in his mouth.
Sun Mo focused his energy and calmed his mind, spirit, and qi. Tens of seconds later, his blood began to boil.
RUMBLE~
A powerful heat seeped out of Sun Mo’s body and ignited Sun Mo’s teacher attire, burning it into ashes.
Boom! Boom!
Sun Mo’s heartbeat quickened. Starting from his heart, red-colored veined patterns surfaced on his skin and continued all the way to his limbs. After a few moments, the veined patterns appeared all over his body.
At first glance, he looked like a dropped vase that was filled with cracks!
Bzz! Bzz! Bzz!
These red patterns gradually brightened and illuminated the entire room, bathing the room in red light.
Sun Mo found it hard to bear, feeling as if his entire person was being pressed down on red-hot metal. He felt as though he had just swallowed many heated pieces of metal. Gurgle~
Sun Mo felt like he was about to be burned into ashes.
Sizzle
His sweat seeped out of his skin and evaporated. An instant later, Sun Mo’s entire surroundings were covered in white steam.
Roughly about five minutes later, Sun Mo’s high temperature began to dip. Those glowing red patterns also turned dim gradually. This pill was something Gao Ben had obtained after much arduous effort. He had been preparing to consume it when he ran into a bottleneck. Sun Mo’s aptitude wasn’t bad by itself. At this moment, with the support of the pill, he succeeded in breaking through! “Baiwu, help me set up the bathing water!”
After Sun Mo exhaled a breathful of turbid air, he instructed in a low voice.
“Congratulations to Teacher for entering the seventh level of the blood-ignition realm!”
With Li Ziqi in the lead, his students came over and began to offer their congratulations. Two days then passed in a flash. The second round of the ‘D’ grade competition had begun!
