Chapter 791: Generous Rewards from the Battle God!
The Battlegod Catalog was a peerless-grade saint-tier cultivation art. Hence, the difficulty of cultivating it could very well be imagined. Ordinary people wouldn’t have the chance to learn it even if they used their entire lives to do so. As for outstanding geniuses, they most probably needed above a hundred years if they wanted to learn everything up until the seventh level.
But right now, Sun Mo had directly grasped everything through a great teacher halo. Although the might wasn’t as powerful as it would be if he used the seventh-level move……
(Wait a minute.)
The Battle God thought of another question and decided to hurry up and ask.
“I remember that great teacher halos will improve as the great teacher’s cultivation realm rises. Their might will be enhanced. In that case, for this halo……”
“That’s for sure. I feel that after I stepped into the Legendary Realm or became a 7-star great teacher, the might of this halo would be equal to the power produced from the seventh level of the Battlegod Catalog.”
After Sun Mo finished speaking, a lot of spirit rune diagrams quickly flashed on the wall.
(Stop flooding me with messages, okay!?)
Sun Mo guessed that the Battle God probably had nothing good to say.
Honestly speaking, Sun Mo was also a little stunned. He had clearly been pondering on how to transform the Battlegod Catalog into a spirit rune so it would be easier to use. In the end, he actually ended up comprehending a great teacher halo.
Although Sun Mo had 12 halos, other than Priceless Advice being comprehended by this original body before his death, the other halos were obtained from the system.
Therefore, this halo was Sun Mo’s first genuinely comprehended halo.
Such an experience was very fresh and would cause him to recall it often. It was a sense of accomplishment.
Li Ziqi regained her senses and hurriedly asked, “Teacher, can you use this great teacher halo just by willing it? Or can it only be used successfully occasionally?
“It’s even simpler than Priceless Advice!”
As Sun Mo spoke, golden light shone from his body and streams of golden qi started gushing forward. They were like fish in a creek and they swam above his head before gathering together and condensing into a crown. After that, the crown shattered and transformed into a gorgeous and mysterious golden halo.
BOOM!
An ancient Battle God appeared, quietly standing beside Sun Mo.
“Simple?”
After hearing this, the Battle God no longer wanted to converse with Sun Mo. He even wanted to take off his shoes to smack him.
Sun Mo pondered over the entire process. “There are two flaws. Firstly, the consumption of spirit qi is way too high. Secondly, the summoning time is too long.”
“Dammit, you should be content!”
The Battle God spoke in disdain.
“Teacher, can you describe its effects?”
Li Ziqi had an excited look on her face.
Sun Mo then repeated it.
“Teacher, I can be sure that in the current [Great Teacher Halos Illustrated Handbook], there isn’t a halo with such an effect.”
Li Ziqi seriously thought about it for quite some time before giving an answer.
Sun Mo frowned. “You are saying……”
“Yes, this is a unique halo that only you possess.”
Li Ziqi’s heart thumped in agitation.
Naturally, some great teachers might have comprehended this halo, but they could be dead, or they didn’t report this to Saint Gate due to various reasons. However, the probability was too low.
So, Li Ziqi could basically be sure that this halo was something only Sun Mo could use uniquely.
“You have the right to name it.”
Li Ziqi was very happy. Her teacher was, as expected, the greatest! A trip to the Battlegod Canyon could even allow him to comprehend a great teacher halo.
“How about naming it the Sun Mo halo?”
Sun Mo joked.
“Teacher, do you want to anger those old seniors to death?”
Li Ziqi rolled her eyes. This action actually caused her to exude some charm.
“In the great teacher world, it’s unknown how many old codgers couldn’t manage to comprehend unique halos. For example, Fu Yanqing from the Westshore Military School!”
Li Ziqi could be sure that after her teacher left the Battlegod Canyon, and news about him obtaining the Battlegod Catalog and comprehending a unique halo was circulated, the rankings of the Great Teachers Ranking would change again.
Even if he couldn’t become the first-ranker, he would definitely be the second!
No, in fact, that ranking board might be unqualified to contain Sun Mo’s name. Her teacher’s name might progress directly to the Great Teacher Rankings.
The so-called Great Teacher Rankings were a ranking system that rated all great teachers in the world. It was different from the Hero Rankings where only great teachers below 30 years of age were ranked.
Hence, the competition in the Great Teacher Rankings was even more intense.
“I was just joking.”
Sun Mo had thought of the name. “Let’s name it Battlegod Protection Halo!”
“Although the name sounds very tyrannical, I feel that the words ‘Battle God’ and ‘great teacher halo’ don’t seem to be too compatible.”
Li Ziqi felt that her teacher’s taste had downgraded.
“We should always remember who dug the well when we are drinking water. After all, this halo was born because of the Battlegod Catalog.”
Sun Mo mentally mused. (Battle God, quickly look! I’m thinking of you. Shouldn’t you give me some benefits?)
The little sunny egg was intelligent and meticulous as well. Although she didn’t expect Sun Mo to be so two-faced, she also intelligently started to praise.
“That’s right, as my teacher’s fame increases, everyone will definitely discuss the halo he uniquely has. At that time, we will say that he managed to comprehend it due to guidance from Senior Battle God. If the halo is even more powerful, it might cause their eyeballs to explode from shock.
“Senior Battle God, do you have anything else you can give us?”
Despite Li Ziqi placing their attitude very low, this was merely done on the surface. The only person that could win her respect and love was Sun Mo.
“You two cunning brats!”
The Battle God had lived for so long. How many people had he met before? When he saw these two juniors trying to ‘scheme’ against him, he could only laugh helplessly. “I’ve already passed you my most precious divine art.”
“But it takes so long to cultivate!”
Li Ziqi was worried. “What if my teacher got challenged by others the moment he exited? If he lost, wouldn’t he have thrown your face away? After all, my teacher is your successor!”
“Alright, alright. Since I’m helping you, I might as well go all the way. In any case, the divine art has been inherited and I, a remnant-will of the Battle God, have already completed my mission in the Middle-Earth Nine Provinces. In that case, I’ll turn my will into a form of energy and pass it to the two of you to strengthen your wills.”
“By doing so, even after you guys leave the Battlegod Canyon, you will still be able to use your will to control spirit qi and directly form spirit runes like that.”
The Battle God spoke casually as though it was very easy to do, but the content of his words caused Sun Mo and Li Ziqi to be incomparably shocked.
“Doesn’t that mean that I won’t need to draw spirit runes on paper anymore? Can I directly manifest them from my thoughts and release them?”
Sun Mo had experienced this earlier. It was super convenient and quick like magic.
For example, the Flame Explosion Spirit Rune. He first had to prepare the spirit rune materials and draw the spirit rune successfully before he could tear the paper to ‘release’ the effects. But now, he could directly use his will to release a powerful fireball immediately.
“Theoretically, yes. But this method will consume your will and spirit qi immensely. Once you overdraft on your will and spirit qi, it might cause irreversible damage to your body.”
The Battle God warned.
“Actually, this is not as wonderful as what you imagine it to be. Firstly, it’s not easy to construct a spirit rune using your will. The entire ‘drawing process’ has to be done in a state of complete focus, and you cannot slacken in the slightest. During this period, you might suffer attacks from your enemies, or you might even get killed.”
“It’s fine. I remember there’s a great teacher halo named One Heart Two uses!”
Sun Mo mentally mused that after heading out, he would immediately purchase this great teacher halo regardless of the price. In any case, he would definitely be able to afford it.
Since he didn’t lack favorable impression points, he naturally could do whatever he wanted to.
“.……”
The Battle God didn’t want to answer and actually felt like beating people up.
He suddenly remembered that the two fellows before him were great teachers, and they had ‘ultimates’ called great teacher halos.
(Hey!)
(I suddenly don’t wish to teach you two anymore.)
Naturally, the Battle God was merely grumbling. As a senior, when he saw that his successor was so outstanding, his heart was filled with joy and happiness.
“Alright, hurry up and focus. I’m starting.”
The spirit runes on the wall turned red. This represented the Battle God’s cautiousness and serious attitude.
“Eh? I have a part in this too?”
Li Ziqi was shocked.
“Naturally. Those who could enter this room are people who are fated with me.”
A goat was a goat, two goats were goats too. In any case, his will was too powerful, and Sun Mo alone couldn’t finish using it. Hence, the Battle God decided to leave the remaining portion to Li Ziqi, or it would just be wasted.
“However, I have to warn you guys that this process is extremely dangerous. If you cannot withstand this infusion of will, there’s a possibility that you might turn into idiots!”
This time around, the Battle God was not joking.
“Let’s try our best!”
Sun Mo encouraged the little sunny egg.
This was such a rare opportunity. No one would reject it.
“Thank you!”
Li Ziqi exerted some force and grabbed Sun Mo’s fingers.
(Without you, I won’t have the chance to enter here, let alone receive such an opportunity to change my fate.)
Li Ziqi knew that as long as she could use her will to unleash spirit runes, she would have some combat strength.
Ding!
Favorable impression points from Li Ziqi +1,000. Reverence (74,850/100,000).
Upon hearing the notification, Sun Mo felt speechless. (What are you thanking me for?)
(If the Battle God was to know of this, wouldn’t he be angered to death? After all, he’s the one giving us his inheritance.) ……
Very soon, the will-imparting inheritance began.
In the room, powerful energy waves gushed all about. They formed into gigantic swords and shot over, directly penetrating through Sun Mo and Li Ziqi.
Woosh~ woosh~ woosh~
There were no wounds on their bodies, but their nerves were badly ravaged. But soon after that, there was a satisfyingly full feeling.
It felt like something was nourishing them.
Li Ziqi’s head felt very painful, but at the same time, she could feel her sixth sense growing sharper. All her consciousness was congealed into a gigantic sword in her mind.
This sword was incomparably sharp and could destroy anything.
After that, she fainted. ……
Sun Mo felt that he was like a boat in a stormy ocean and would capsize any time. But at this moment, the clouds parted and the rain stopped, revealing a rainbow.
“Sun Mo, although I have no way to direct your life, I still hope that you can find your own Dao as a teacher and continue to persevere.”
The Battle God blessed him.
“Thank you for your rewards and teaching, Teacher!”
Sun Mo changed his term of address.
This was the first time ever since he arrived in the Middle-Earth Nine Provinces that he called someone a teacher respectfully from the bottom of his heart.
The inheritance of the Battle God wasn’t simply the Battlegod Catalog or the Battlegod Will. There was also his combat experience that had been accumulated over tens of thousands of years.
Yes, the actions of those cultivators who entered the Battlegod Canyon could be sensed by the Battle God no matter how secretive they were.
If Sun Mo thoroughly mastered these experiences, they would be considered huge wealth.
One could say that Sun Mo could be considered a personal disciple of the Battle God.
The Battle God didn’t draw any spirit runes, but Sun Mo could sense that he was smiling gratifyingly.
“Teacher, if you have no further instructions, I’m going to leave.”
Sun Mo bade his farewell. He had stayed too long here and the others were definitely extremely anxious about his safety.
“Mn, goodbye!”
The Battle God already didn’t have anything more he wanted to say.
But after Sun Mo took a few steps forward, he suddenly halted. There was still something he had to be clear of.
Chapter 792: Emergence of Divine Art, Shocking The World (1)
“Teacher, I heard that when someone comprehended the Battlegod Catalog, the murals would vanish. Is this true or false?”
Sun Mo was curious.
If there were no unexpected accidents, it would just be a rumor. It was like hunger marketing or something thought up by the administrative people of the Battlegod Canyon to increase the number of ‘tourists’.
After all, enough human traffic would represent sufficient benefits. If no one came here, these staff from the Saint Gate would have no purpose here.
“They have vanished.”
The Battle God replied.
“Huh?”
Sun Mo suddenly felt very awkward. His deduction was completely wrong.
“Because the aim of the Battlegod Canyon has already been achieved and I found an outstanding successor, hence, the murals no longer have any purpose to exist.”
The Battle God explained.
“What a pity would it be if it was destroyed!”
Sun Mo felt pity. “You probably spent quite a bit of effort when you created it, right?”
“When you reach my cultivation realm, you will understand.”
The Battle God didn’t wish to explain too much.
“In that case, don’t you want to find a second successor?”
Sun Mo felt puzzled. “What if I ran into an accident when I exited? Wouldn’t your cultivation art be lost forever?”
“It’s fine, I can’t possibly continue to will myself to exist forever. All the myriad of things in the world will eventually die if they are alive. I persisted for so long because I missed my hometown and wanted to leave a mark behind. Whether this mark can become the most gorgeous rainbow or just a flash of light, that already has nothing to do with me.”
The Battle God who had already shattered the void didn’t have any other regrets other than wanting to leave behind his inheritance. Hence, at this moment, regardless of how magical or beautiful the Battlegod Canyon was, or the fact that it was a miraculous place that drew people in, it was already not important for him.
“.……”
Sun Mo felt a headache. (If you leave so cleanly, I will be in huge trouble. After all, this is the Battlegod Catalog. If people knew that I obtained it, how badly would I be harassed?)
(Do you know about the story about a poor man with the jade ruler seal?)
(He died a terrible death!)
In the end, people would always say that the person who obtained the ruler seal would obtain the world. However, the lucky fellow who obtained the ruler seal also wouldn’t dare to stand out and admit it because he would really die.
The world?
Sorry, it had nothing to do with me.
“Haha, your thoughts are so meticulous!”
An old fox like the Battle God instantly understood Sun Mo’s worry with just a thought. “I can choose to let the murals remain, but for the final stage, once my will depart, this room will crumble away. Hence, there will be no one else who can obtain the Battlegod Catalog. Are you at ease now?”
“Teacher, I will always be paying attention to this place. If someone passes the sixth stage, I will personally impart the Battlegod Catalog to them.”
Sun Mo guaranteed this.
“You are also willing to wait tens of thousands of years for that ‘someone’ to appear? Quickly leave, just go and enjoy your fresh flowers and applause!”
The Battle God urged. He already didn’t feel like chatting with Sun Mo anymore.
Sun Mo carried the unconscious Li Ziqi. After taking a few steps, he turned his head again and bowed solemnly with respect. “Teacher, thank you!”
A concise spirit rune appeared on the wall. After translation, it could be said that there were four words.
Take care, meet again! ……
At this moment, the Battlegod Canyon was in complete chaos.
Even those swindlers and bandits had forgotten their jobs. Right now, they were all in the canyon and it was as though they were studying. They stared at the stone walls blankly.
A few days ago, there were still various murals that no one could understand on the stone walls. But now, all of them had vanished. The stone walls were blank and as smooth as though they were new.
Because of Fu Yanqing’s words, many people knew that Sun Mo had entered the seventh part of the canyon. They then thought of the rumor. If someone comprehended the Battlegod Catalog, the murals would vanish. Hence, the news that Sun Mo had obtained the Battlegod Catalog immediately started to spread like wildfire.
During these few days, Jin Mujie had strictly forbidden teachers and students of their school from heading out. Even Xuanyuan Po was prohibited. She arranged Zhang Yanzong and Zhou Yu to specially monitor the combat addict.
At this moment, there would surely be people with designs on Sun Mo.
After all, the Battlegod Catalog was a peerless saint-tier cultivation art. No, it might even be more powerful than that. Jin Mujie thought about it and realized that as long as one was a cultivator, they would definitely have heard of the Battlegod Catalog.
“Teacher Jin, there are too many people roaming outside our campsite. Should we change location?”
Gu Xiuxun frowned.
Some people came purely because they heard of Sun Mo’s reputation and wished to take a look at his personal students. For others, they had impure motives. A few of them wanted to pay a visit to Sun Mo to gain some benefits.
“Which location should we change to?”
Jin Mujie bitterly smiled. The Battlegod Town was just so big. Could it be that they have to leave?
That would be even more dangerous.
By staying here, the prestige of the Saint Gate could still protect them and scare several people off.
“We should inform Headmaster An as quickly as possible and get her to send armed troops over for reinforcement,” Mei Ziyu suggested.
If Sun Mo traveled with them later, they might encounter some accidents on their way back. So it would be better if they had greater martial force on their side.
“Ai, Sister An sent a letter a few days ago saying she had something urgent to do now and could only come here a few days later. In the end, the murals vanished before she came.”
Gu Xiuxun was speechless. She didn’t know what expression An Xinhui would have after she knew of this.
“Luckily, it ended up in the hands of our own people, or we would surely feel so regretful that we would want to die.”
Jin Mujie casually spoke. But after that, Gu Xiuxun’s gaze drifted over.
“Own people?”
(There’s something wrong, right?)
(Although the relationships between everyone are like siblings, Sun Mo will definitely not impart such a divine art to you. What do you mean by referring to him as ‘own people’?)
(As for me?)
(Since Sun Mo was willing to impart the Ancient Dragon Capturing Hands to me, I think there shouldn’t be too much problem if I want to learn the Battlegod Catalog.)
(However, with my moral integrity, I will definitely not learn it. Even if I become Sun Mo’s concubine, I won’t learn it either.)
(But for Elder Sister Jin……)
Gu Xiuxun’s gaze involuntarily drifted to Jin Mujie’s huge papayas and slowly slid down to her waist.
(Oh no.)
(Sis An, even both of us added up isn’t enough to fight against Jin Mujie!)
Her figure was truly too tyrannical.
Most probably, only a few men in the world could withstand it!
Jin Mujie didn’t actually have any other intentions. She knew she wouldn’t be able to comprehend the Battlegod Catalog even if you gave her a hundred years. Now that her younger sister’s husband obtained it, she naturally felt happy for him and An Xinhui.
At the very least, the Central Province Academy had another ultimate divine art other than the Great Dreams Heart Sutra.
In the future, the competitiveness of their school would be even greater.
“Speaking of which, it has only been a month, yet Sun Mo has comprehended all the murals in the Battlegod Canyon, except for the last one. But why has he not come out now? Could he be facing a problem?”
Gu Xiuxun was worried.
She knew Sun Mo was impressive, but she didn’t expect him to be so impressive to such an extent.
“Sister Gu, don’t make such an inauspicious remark.”
Mei Ziyu pleaded and was about to cry. She had also considered this question before, but every time she thought about it, she would force herself to stop and only think about good things.
“Pui, pui, pui. What am I talking about? Sun Mo is definitely fine.”
Gu Xiuxun lightly slapped herself.
(Sun Mo, it doesn’t matter whether you obtain the Battlegod Catalog or not. Just return quickly. I feel that my improvement in the Ancient Dragon Capturing Hands has not been bad recently. I’ll let you have a taste of my massage if you return.)
(Free of charge!)
(Mn, even if you want to add extra service, it’s possible.)
The three women no longer spoke and tried their best to express that Sun Mo was safe. However, their hearts were filled with concern and worry. ……
“This time around, Teacher Sun is truly impressive to the max.”
Zhang Yanzong felt very refreshed. They were a tier higher compared to the students from other schools. “Our Central Province Academy is probably going to become extremely famous.”
(Aiya, we will have a divine art that we can learn in the future!)
Zhang Yanzong rubbed his hands, suddenly feeling that the current cultivation art he was training in was so tasteless and boring.
(Teacher Sun, you have to continue to work hard!)
(It depends on you whether this little disciple can become famous or not.)
Ying Baiwu and Lu Zhiruo stared at Zhang Yanzong with a puzzled look on their faces. (That’s our teacher, so why are you so excited? Teacher wouldn’t impart the Battlegod Catalog to you in any case.)
“I truly feel envious of our eldest martial sister. She must have seen something that would be deeply engraved in her mind.”
Qin Yaoguang, who always loved eating snacks, didn’t eat the candy she peeled this time. After peeling the wrapper, she stuffed the pearflower candy into the papaya girl’s mouth.
“Yeah, it’s a pity that I’m too stupid and have no way to accompany teacher.”
Lu Zhiruo felt some regret.
Ying Baiwu didn’t say anything, but her clenched fists and the throbbing green veins on her hands indicated her reluctance.
(The favorite student of our teacher……)
(Why isn’t it me?)
“Don’t overthink things. Teacher didn’t bring us because we didn’t meet the requirements. It isn’t that he is biased.”
Jiang Leng usually didn’t speak much, but his thoughts were very meticulous. He didn’t wish for there to be a problem between them. Hence, he explained.
“That’s for sure!”
Helian Beifang nodded heavily. Their teacher could even selflessly pass down peerless-grade saint-tier cultivation arts. (If you say that he is biased, you are lacking in conscience.)
“Eldest martial sister cannot make it in terms of cultivation, yet Teacher brought her along. This indicates that it must have something to do with intelligence. But speaking of intelligence, both I and the sickly invalid aren’t bad……”
When Qin Yaoguang deduced halfway, Lu Zhiruo interrupted.
“Eh? Other than eating a lot of snacks, your intelligence isn’t bad as well.”
The papaya girl was shocked. “I thought you were on the same level as me!”
“How badly are you looking down on me?”
Qin Yaoguang was speechless. “Am I, the most junior martial sister, really like this in your eyes?”
“Don’t divert the topic!”
Ying Baiwu glanced at Lu Zhiruo. She then urged Qin Yaoguang. “Continue to analyze!”
“Since this has nothing to do with intelligence, we can only think of something that the eldest martial sister knows more than us. It is undoubtedly knowledge. She is learning the study of spirit runes, the art of spiritual control, herbology, and botany from Teacher……”
Qin Yaoguang broke down the list of things.
“There’s also the beast control art!”
The papaya girl lifted her hand and said it.
“Wow, Teacher Sun knows so many things.” Zhang Yanzong, who was listening by the side, was stunned. “Why didn’t I know about it?”
Swish~
Qin Yaoguang and the others immediately glanced over. Their meaning was evident without needing to put it into words. (You are just an outsider, so why should you know about this?)
“In the Battlegod Canyon, there are no herbs, plants, nor ferocious beasts. So, we can eliminate these subjects. The only ones remaining are the art of spiritual control and the study of spirit runes.”
Qin Yaoguang analyzed. “I’m more inclined to believe that it has something to do with spirit runes.”
“Agreed!”
Tantai Yutang nodded. He also felt the same way.
“During this period, Teacher has been drawing stuff!”
Helian Beifang realized this in hindsight.
“You guys are saying that the Battlegod murals have a connection with spirit runes?”
After Ying Baiwu spoke, she suddenly closed her mouth and stared warily at the surroundings. If Qin Yaoguang’s analysis was correct, this could be considered a great secret.
The type of secret where one would murder others to make sure it stayed a secret.
Swish~!~
Everyone’s gaze turned to Zhang Yanzong.
“Ah? What’s going on?”
Zhang Yanzong felt very innocent.
“Speaking of which, why do you keep mingling with us these few days?”
The sickly invalid teased.
“Enough, Yanzong isn’t a bad person!”
Lu Zhiruo helped to speak on his behalf and to alleviate the atmosphere. “However, it’s not possible for it to be spirit runes. I’ve seen those things that Teacher and eldest martial sister were drawing before. It looked like they were trying to copy the murals out.”
“Boohoohoo. Zhiruo, I didn’t expect you to be so nice.”
Zhang Yanzong felt touched. (Although you are not the type I like, from today onward, I’ll take care of you. We shall share danger and fortune!)
Chapter 793: Emergence of Divine Art, Shocking The World (2)
A group of students chatted excitedly, but suddenly a loud commotion rang out from outside and very soon, the sounds of hurried footsteps could be heard.
“What’s going on?”
Zhang Yanzong leaped up. “Could it be that Teacher Sun has returned?”
Just when everyone wanted to go and investigate the matter, An Rou ran back with an anxious expression. “N……no good, the murals on the walls come back.”
Upon hearing this, the faces of everyone instantly changed.
“Where’s Teacher Sun?”
Jin Mujie and the other two ran out and asked.
“I……I didn’t see him!”
An Rou was very worried for Sun Mo’s safety and was so anxious that she started crying. From her point of view, this definitely wasn’t a good thing.
“You guys wait here. Xiuxun and Teacher Mei, the two of you should take care of the students. I’ll go take a look!”
Jin Mujie couldn’t sit still anymore.
“Teacher, let us go together!’
Helian Beifang pleaded.
Ying Baiwu was also secretly glancing around at the surroundings. This was such a major commotion. Regardless of whether Jin Mujie agreed or not, she had to enter the canyon and take a look for herself.
When Jin Mujie saw the faces of Sun Mo’s personal students, she immediately guessed their thoughts. Rather than letting them run around wildly, she might as well bring them with her. Hence, she decided to compromise. “You guys can follow me!”
They immediately rushed toward the Battlegod Canyon! ……
At the Westshore campsite, the students listlessly cultivated. The Battlegod Catalog was already taken, so why would they still need to comprehend anything?
It was not known why, but everyone felt that life suddenly felt tasteless.
Their group leader Fu Yanqing was still in the sixth part of the canyon. Their vice group leader Bai Hao was impacted so badly that he became ‘autistic’. He was currently hiding in his tent, refusing to come out.
As for the other teachers, they stayed at the campsite as well.
There was no solution to it. Why should they go out and embarrass themselves?
Their school was none other than one of the Nine Greats, the famous Westshore Military School. A 6-star great teacher led the group, and the students in this group were the most talented in their batch. In the end, a single Sun Mo seized all the glory away.
Looking at the murals to comprehend?
The murals had already vanished, so what should they comprehend?!
If it wasn’t for Fu Yanqing wanting to see which stage Sun Mo could reach, everyone would have long since returned to school.
“That Sun Mo couldn’t possibly obtain the Battlegod Catalog, right?”
Duan Hu was very unhappy. Although he didn’t have the capabilities to obtain it, he felt like he had just lost a huge source of wealth when he saw others getting it.
“The murals have already vanished, what do you think?”
Miao Ze was very disappointed. (Why don’t you give me some more time? Maybe ten years later, my comprehension abilities would be high enough to comprehend the murals.)
But after thinking of the fact that his age would be higher than the current Sun Mo ten years from now, Miao Ze grew discouraged again.
Truly, he couldn’t not be convinced.
“That might not be the case. What if it was some other experts in the sixth part of the canyon that comprehended the Battlegod Catalog?”
However, before Duan Hu could finish his sentence, he was interrupted.
“The person who comprehended it is definitely Teacher Sun. There won’t be a mistake!’
Lu Lin had an excited look on his face. He actually managed to obtain the guidance from such an impressive teacher. This was truly a fortune that he had accumulated for over three lifetimes.
Ai!
He truly felt very envious of Sun Mo’s personal students. They would soon be able to learn the divine art.
Duan Hu turned his head and saw that the person speaking was the last-ranking Lu Lin. He immediately grew annoyed.
“When this daddy is speaking, it won’t be your turn to interrupt. Do you want to get beaten up?”
Duan Hu threatened.
“Are you talking to me? Your daddy?”
Li Lin also lost his temper. When he heard Duan Hu’s words, he directly scolded back.
Zen!
Duan Hu stood up and had a smile that was not a smile on his face. “Do you want to fight?”
“Sure!”
Duan Hu agreed and pulled out his sword.
Miao Ze was the judge. After he shouted for the fight to start, he couldn’t be bothered to pay attention anymore. In any case, Lu Lin would be instantly defeated. However, their fight ended in a way no one expected.
Lu Lin matched Duan Hu’s every move and even forced Duan Hu back, exhibiting incredible skill.
“What the hell?”
Not only Miao Ze, even the other students couldn’t help but gather over to spectate.
Half a month ago, Lu Lin was trashed so badly by Duan Hu to the point where he couldn’t retaliate. How could he become so powerful now?
“Could it be that those murals are really useful?”
Someone doubted. After all, Lu Lin was the person that comprehended the most murals among them.
“Something is wrong. During these few days, Lu Lin hasn’t been to the canyon but kept running toward a small mountain. I was thinking about what he was doing then. So, it seems that he was asking an expert to guide him!”
Truthfully speaking, after Sun Mo gave him some pointers, Lu Lin no longer sought guidance from other great teachers. Instead, he focused on meditation.
He also didn’t expect such a vast improvement.
When he discovered that he was no weaker than Duan Hu in the battle, this immediately caused Lu Lin’s confidence to surge. Besides, the Time Immemorial One Sword Art was a top-level cultivation art that surpassed what Duan Hu was training in. Lu Lin had also been bitterly training for several days to avenge himself……all these factors combined caused Lu Lin to erupt with 120% of his combat strength at this moment.
He didn’t want to harm Duan Hu. He only wanted to win.
Duan Hu found himself increasingly unable to handle Lu Lin’s moves. How many days had it only been? Why would this fellow suddenly be so skilled?
One must know that Lu Lin had always been the last-ranker among them, someone who depended on connection to join the Westshore Military School. If he couldn’t even defeat Lu Lin, what would it mean?
Duan Hu’s attacks grew increasingly frantic, but the effect wasn’t useful. On the contrary, he tossed away his advantage. Lu Lin took advantage of a flaw and unleashed his ultimate skill.
A Sword Breaking All Laws!
Swish~
The longsword pierced forth suddenly, akin to a rainbow arcing, slicing past Duan Hu’s face and penetrating his earlobe.
The coldness of the sword’s edge caused Duan Hu to immediately turn into a stone statue, not daring to move. After that, a warm liquid flowed down his neck.
He knew that it was fresh blood.
The spectating students were all dumbfounded.
“The last ranker actually won?”
“What the hell? Is Duan Hu ill?”
“Why do I feel that when compared to the past, Lu Lin’s sword moves have a somewhat different aura?”
These students were all geniuses with outstanding talent. Many people could tell that Lu Lin was different.
“I……I’ve won?”
Lu Lin felt disbelief. After that, he involuntarily sobbed out loud. “I’ve won. Thank you, Teacher Sun!”
Ding!
Favorable impression points from Lu Lin +1,000. Respect (6,300/10,000).
Because Miao Ze was the judge, he was nearer to them. When he heard Lu Lin’s words, he couldn’t help but glance over.
(Huh? Teacher Sun?)
(That shouldn’t be Sun Mo, right?)
(But other than Sun Mo, who could have the ability to turn trash metal into gold in such a short period?)
(Speaking of which, should I also consult Teacher Sun for guidance?)
Ding!
Favorable impression points from Miao Ze +100, Friendly (600/1,000).
Miao Mu walked out when he heard the commotion. He didn’t care when he saw that two students were in combat. This was because the style of the Westshore Military School had always been like this.
If there was a conflict, the students should settle it via combat. Logic would be on the side of the stronger person.
Although this was somewhat unreasonable, it could also encourage the students to work harder in cultivation. After all, the cultivation world was a place where the strong feasted on the weak.
When Miao Mu saw that no one was dead, he felt at ease and was preparing to head back. But after that, he saw many people shouting loudly and started running toward the Battlegod Canyon.
“What’s going on?”
Miao Mu frowned. Ever since the murals vanished, the number of people heading to the canyon became much lesser. But now, with such a huge commotion, it was evident something major had occurred.
“Could it be that Sun Mo has exited the canyon?”
Miao Mu immediately rushed over while the other students followed behind him. ……
“I wonder when my ‘golden thigh’ will come out?”
He Wei hummed a melody and took a teapot as he put hot water within. He felt so joyous that he was almost dancing.
(Look at how good my judgment is. I’m lucky to have formed a good relationship with Sun Mo. Now, the question is how can I gain something substantial?)
(I wonder if I can somehow get Sun Mo to reveal a move or two from the Battlegod Catalog to me.)
“Boss, something bad happened!”
The assistant rushed in with a panicked look on his face. “The murals are back!”
Dang!
He Wei was dumbfounded and the teapot in his hands fell onto his foot, but he didn’t feel the pain.
(My golden thigh shattered?)
(No, I have to hurry over to take a look!)
He Wei hurriedly ran out with a speed faster compared to when a wild boar was chasing rabbits. ……
Li Ruolan sat before the mist-filled area in the fifth part of the canyon. Her chin was propped by her hands as she was in a daze.
“Ai~”
(It’s such a regret. I won’t be able to capture the scene when Sun Mo comprehends the Battlegod Catalog!)
(No, I have to deduct 10 points from you.)
(Hmph!)
This was a regret that could last for life.
Although the murals vanished, the mist-filled area was still here. This caused the cultivators who wanted to continue proceeding forward to feel fear in their hearts.
After all, no one dared to risk their lives like that.
“No, I can’t carry on waiting.”
Li Ruolan stood up. She decided that even if she died, she wanted to attempt this. If she missed out on that instant when Sun Mo comprehended the Battlegod Catalog, she would surely feel unhappy all her life.
But right before Li Ruolan was about to step into the mist-filled area, there seemed to be an invisible blade slicing past the stone walls and the murals reappeared once more.
“Ah?”
Li Ruolan exclaimed in shock as her tears flowed out of her eyes.
(Could something have happened to Sun Mo?)
Even Li Ruolan herself didn’t realize that she was so concerned about Sun Mo. ……
In the sixth part of the canyon, before the mist-filled area.
Fu Yanqing had sat here, stoned, for many days.
(Why would the murals vanish? Did Sun Mo really obtain the Battlegod Catalog? Isn’t that too incredible?)
Fu Yanqing’s pride was badly crushed when Sun Mo cleared the sixth stage. And now, it was completely like a pile of loose sand.
“Could that fellow have become crazy?”
After the fisherman asked, he discovered that Sun Ming was also in an absent-minded state.
Sun Ming wasn’t mad. On the contrary, he was extremely calm. He even felt a sense of relief.
Once, he had also been a rising superstar in the great teacher world, a genius ranked #1 on the Great Teachers Hero Rankings. But because he had cleared four stages here in a single day, Sun Ming had felt that he was fated with this place. This was why he had chosen to stay in the Battlegod Canyon and refused to go out.
This period lasted for ten years.
(If I spent these ten years deepening my learning and teaching more students, I most probably would have an extremely great achievement by now, right?)
(This is just a divine art. How many more years of my life do I want to waste?)
(After I become a Saint, maybe I can also create a divine art?)
(I might as well return, I might as well return!)
“Haha!”
Sun Ming’s thoughts were clear now. He laughed loudly and stood up, walking toward the exit with a flick of his sleeves.
“Eh? You are going to leave? Don’t you want to wait for Sun Mo’s return?”
The fisherman was astonished.
“Why should I wait for his return?”
Sun Ming didn’t understand.
“To witness the power of the Battlegod Catalog? After all, we wasted over ten years of effort on it. Are you not curious at all?”
The old fisherman was so curious that he could die. He wanted to wait for Sun Mo to exit so he could ask him.
“I have wasted enough time!”
Sun Ming shook his head and continued heading out. But a few steps later, he halted and solemnly bowed with clasped hands to the fisherman. “Old friend, please help me give my thanks to Sun Mo!”
After that, Sun Ming laughed loudly and left.
“Damn, another person has gone crazy.”
The lips of the fisherman twitched.
“He hasn’t gone crazy. He has freed himself!”
Fu Yanqing interjected.
He understood such a heart state very well. Sometimes, giving up when you were about to obtain something required an extremely large amount of courage.
After Sun Ming unlocked his shackles, he would surely go up another level!
Yes, other than some envy, Sun Ming felt relieved. It was just a divine art, did he really want it to control his life?
Because he was free now, golden light erupted forth from Sun Ming’s body. He then comprehended a great teacher halo.
Precious Time! The passing time was worth an ounce of gold!
(These ten years cannot be considered wasted after all.)
However, at this moment, Fu Yanqing and the fisherman didn’t have the mood to care about him because someone had just exited the depths of the mist-filled area that led to the seventh part of the canyon.
It was none other than Sun Mo. He was also carrying his female student.
“That’s Sun Mo?”
The fisherman was badly frightened.
It had only been a few days, but this young man was so skinny to the point where it was frightening. Given the constitution of a cultivator, this definitely wouldn’t happen.
“Sigh, he obtained the Battlegod Catalog!”
Although he had already guessed this ending, after personally seeing it, Fu Yanqing still felt extremely disappointed.
Sun Mo saw the two of them. He nodded in greeting and headed out of the canyon.
The fisherman’s right hand involuntarily moved.
Honestly speaking, he had an impulse to forcefully kidnap Sun Mo and start interrogating him, forcing him to hand over the divine art.
“Teacher Sun.”
Fu Yanqing lowered his head and bowed.
“F***, what are you doing?”
The fisherman jumped in fright.
(Do you have to act like this?)
(You are a 6-star great teacher. Don’t you want your face anymore?)
“We are all great teachers. There are no seniors or juniors when it comes to learning!”
Fu Yanqing’s tone turned solemn.
Although he was unhappy with Sun Mo and he had some flaws in his behavior, his character was still pretty good.
Since Sun Mo could obtain the Battlegod Catalog, he was worthy of a bow from him.
Favorable impression points from Fu Yanqing +500. Respect (1,700/10,000).
“.……”
Seeing the solemn look on Fu Yanqing’s face, the fisherman immediately retracted his thoughts.
There was no solution to it. What if he kidnapped Sun Mo and Fu Yanqing attacked him to save Sun Mo? Wouldn’t that be equal to him giving Fu Yanqing a chance to gain favor from Sun Mo?
Moreover, Sun Mo had comprehended the Battlegod Catalog. If they really fought in the Battlegod Canyon, he had no idea how powerful Sun Mo would be.
(It’s better to rethink my plan! This is the threat of a genius!)
If it was another great teacher, even if it was a 3-star one, the old fisherman would definitely dare to snatch it. (But now that it was Sun Mo, forget it……I can’t afford to offend him! After all, Yue Changdao just died a few days ago and his body hasn’t even rotted yet.) ……
Just when Li Ruolan decided to enter the canyon, she saw Sun Mo carrying Li Ziqi out.
“Sun Mo?”
Li Ruolan was badly shocked. She then immediately rushed over.
There was no mistake. Although Sun Mo looked extremely frail and skinny now, his gaze was sharper than before and there was an indescribable aura radiating from him.
There were too many people in this stage. When they saw Sun Mo exiting, they immediately crowded around.
“Great Teacher Sun, what sort of cultivation art is the Battlegod Catalog?”
“Great Teacher Sun, please demonstrate some moves and allow us to broaden our horizons!”
“Esteemed teacher, this student is willing to take you on as my master!”
Chaos reigned over. There were all sorts of voices in the air.
Sun Mo grew impatient. His eyes widened as he glared at them.
His will had been strengthened by the ancient Battle God. As a result, this glare of his was like a sharp blade slashing across space, pressing against their necks.
Hence, an instant later, the entire crowd fell silent.
They were horrified!
This was because Sun Mo’s gaze felt incomparably sharp to them like a saber that could chop their heads off.
After that, several people grew excited.
Sun Mo had definitely comprehended the divine art.
(There’s absolutely no mistake!)
