2101 New skill idea
When he had swallowed the dragon pearl earlier, it got stuck in his throat.
If the wisdom fruit also got stuck in his throat, it would be a huge waste. Because of that, the black-skinned Soft Feather could not help but voice her concerns.
Song Shuhang: “…”
It was fine until the black-skinned Soft Feather didn’t mention it, but when she did, Song Shuhang felt his throat clog up.
It was as if a stick had been shoved down his throat.
“It really did get stuck in Senior Song’s throat. What a waste. Why don’t you give it to me? No, wait, I’m an inner demon, so I might not be able to eat it either. Senior Song, how about you give it to Sixteen?” the black-skinned Soft Feather suggested.
Song Shuhang, while choking, raised his head and looked up at the sky. He was seriously considering pushing out the wisdom fruit.
“It’s okay, don’t panic,” Pavilion Master Chu comforted Song Shuhang, her expression solemn. “Since this fruit contains wisdom and knowledge, maybe you can digest it despite your condition.”
Song Shuhang looked puzzled.
“After all, it is the brain that consumes knowledge. You can try to digest the fruit with your brain,” Pavilion Master Chu said seriously. She then added, “Unless… you have no brain.”
Song Shuhang: “…”
Whose brain can digest food? Senior Chu, you’re just pushing me into a corner and forcing me to say that I have no brain. I’m being serious when I said that I was pretty good at studies!
The wisdom fruit was still stuck in his throat, which left him somewhat uncomfortable.
Forget it. It seems that I’ve got no luck with this treasure.
I can only push it back out.
Song Shuhang brought his hands to his throat, ready to push out the fruit.
But then, the fruit melted on its own, turning into strands of energy that merged into Song Shuhang’s head.
With the energy from the fruit, Song Shuhang felt his head become much clearer. At the same time, a lot of “knowledge” poured into his mind.
Some of this knowledge was already present in Song Shuhang’s mind, but with the integration of the wisdom fruit’s energy, he seemed to have been suddenly enlightened on some of the bits he could not understand beforehand.
There was also a large amount of cultivation-related theoretical knowledge, which belonged to the wooden body, that poured into Song Shuhang’s mind.
This wooden body was truly special.
It had been personally collected by the Heavenly Emperor, and before it lost its head, it should have been in the Eighth Stage Realm at the very least. The amount of knowledge stored inside it was pretty high.
Additionally, it seemed to be able to sense Song Shuhang’s current state as the knowledge passed on from the wisdom fruit was very targeted—it was exactly the pieces of knowledge that Song Shuhang was lacking and needed desperately.
The knowledge that appeared in his mind could only be used to understand the General Principles Inheritance Chapter of the ❮Holy Ape Dragon Power Technique❯ and nothing else. The amount of knowledge that could be stored inside a wisdom fruit was limited, so it didn’t add anything extra.
It appeared that in the depths of the wooden body, there were still traces of its old consciousness.
Heh, maybe I can rend Senior Chu’s heart in a while. After all, I’m digesting the wisdom fruit with my mind!
Still, it’s a pity that the knowledge that can be stored inside the wisdom fruit is limited. Otherwise, I could’ve become a knowledgeable senior in one go.
“No, I shouldn’t be too greedy.” Song Shuhang shook his head.
Greed is a part of human nature. Once you have something, you naturally come to want more.
Having greed for knowledge was a good thing but sometimes, one’s greed must be restrained.
Obtaining knowledge through wisdom fruit was not the proper way, after all. True knowledge must be learned by oneself, and so he should not rely too much on such means.
But it was no problem to use it occasionally to assist him, similar to how he borrowed those CPUs in the past.
While Song Shuhang was in thought, the entire wisdom fruit was absorbed by him.
“It worked.” Song Shuhang smiled.
Sister White Dragon nodded slightly. “It seems that this wisdom fruit does not need to be digested. Its structure seems to be similar to pure energy.”
“Does that mean I can eat it too?” The black-skinned Soft Feather’s eyes lit up. Her eyes then refocused on Song Shuhang’s waist.
Sixteen also looked at the waist of Song Shuhang’s wooden body.
There, two small flower buds had begun growing where the wisdom fruit had been plucked off.
The rate at which they were growing was very slow, clearly different from the fruits on other branches.
It seems that these two buds were also wisdom fruit.
After plucking one, two could be born.
After picking two in the future, would there then be four?
“Senior Chu.” Song Shuhang laughed and was about to rend Pavilion Master Chu’s heart.
Pavilion Master Chu asked, “What’s up?”
Song Shuhang said seriously, “N-nothing. I just wanted to say that my knowledge reserve seems to have become very rich. I might be able to understand the General Principles Inheritance Chapter of the ❮Holy Ape Dragon Power Technique❯ now. Senior Chu, Sister White Dragon, let’s try to continue with our deduction.”
The main reason he changed his mind was that Pavilion Master Chu’s strand of hair was still on his head. For an instant, it was no longer soft but became as sharp as a blade, and there was a faint sense of danger that assaulted his senses.
Song Shuhang felt his scalp turn numb, so he immediately changed his wording.
Pavilion Master Chu’s strand of hair had many abilities, and it should not be underestimated.
This was the hair of an Immortal, and when necessary, spiritual energy could be poured into it, and it could become as sharp as a divine weapon.
When he fought against enemies in the future, he could consider crashing into them head-first.
Before his head reached the enemy, he could pour spiritual energy into Pavilion Master Chu’s strand of hair, making it as sharp as a sword.
Watch me poke you to death!
An Immortal’s hair came with its own defense-breaking ability, and ordinary defenses of the Sixth, or even Seventh, Stage would not be able to hold against it.
The more Song Shuhang thought about it, the more he liked the idea.
Sister White Dragon suddenly said, “Someone is coming.”
Two and a half days after Song Shuhang and his group entered this small world made of crystals, the first trial taker finally appeared.
This just went to show how valuable the passage opened by Senior Divine Dragon was.
It saved Song Shuhang a day or two.
Someone else is here. Song Shuhang cheered up.
In a while, the other trial takers will also have to arrange the crystals, right?
After Song Shuhang’s consciousness went to see the owner of the crystal room, the crystals in this place returned to their original state and went back to being all over the place, waiting for the next trial taker to arrange them.
It should take quite some time for them to arrange the one hundred thousand crystals correctly, right?
He, the first Sage in a thousand years, had a secret technique that could quickly arrange the crystals in the correct order.
It would take a single Ninth Stage spirit stone to pay for his service.
So, how about considering the caring service of Profound Sage Tyrannical Song?
Song Shuhang came up with several other lines in his mind in an attempt to imitate the Almighty Merchant.
This was another reason he wanted to stay and wait for other trial takers.
Anyway, amid the sharp sound of crystals moving about, a new trial taker appeared.
It turned out to be an old acquaintance, Daoist Turntable.
Old acquaintances were wonderful as it was easier to trade with them. Song Shuhang had a bright smile on his face, ready to meet the other party.
At this time, a sphere appeared around him and Sixteen. Then, spatial energy was activated.
After being transferred to this special spherical space, they stayed suspended in the air, isolated from the rest of the world.
“F*ck, just when I came up with an idea to make money.” Song Shuhang’s heart felt stifled.
