nIn the Hall of Impartation…
n
n
nYe Luo was sitting in a corner and reading a book, his eyes sparkling. He had vaguely understood his own situation through this book that recorded the ancient secrets.
n
n
n
n
nIn ancient times, humans did not have spirit roots. The birth of a spirit root was a kind of shackle that the heavens placed on humans…
n
n
nMoreover, there was a hypothesis in this book.
n
n
nThe heavens constructed spirit roots in the human body to restrict their cultivation.
n
n
nHowever, if a person was born with a special and powerful physique, their spirit root would not be able to restrict their cultivation speed. There might be some discrepancies from reality, but as long as they could cultivate, they would definitely advance rapidly…
n
n
n
n
nIf Ye Luo was right, he was such a person!
n
n
nYe Luo took a deep breath and muttered to himself, “So it turns out that I am not a piece of trash but someone with great talent. It’s no wonder that Master asked me to come to the Hall of Impartation. He wanted me to understand my current situation. Master, I understand your teachings!”
n
n
nHe was still excited.
n
n
nAnyone who carried the title of ‘trash’ for so many years would feel terrible in their heart.
n
n
n
n
nNow that Ye Luo understood that he was the one with the greatest talent, he immediately felt relieved.
n
n
nThe heavens had not abandoned him!
n
n
nHe was someone even the heavens were jealous of!
n
n
nAt the same time, the last bit of doubt he had toward his Master was resolved.
n
n
nHe knew it. His Master was at the Tribulation stage and was also the Sect Leader of the Daoless Sect. At first, he didn’t understand why his Master hadn’t chosen someone with Heaven and Earth Spirit Roots as his disciple but had chosen someone without any spirit root like him instead.
n
n
nSo it was because he was the one with the greatest talent!
n
n
n
n
nAfter Ye Luo learned about this, he did not feel any pride. Instead, the pressure in his heart increased.
n
n
nIf his Master had not asked him to come to the Hall of Impartation, he would not have known these secrets.
n
n
nAll of this was bestowed upon him by his Master.
n
n
nHe could not let down his Master.
n
n
nYe Luo’s eyes were filled with fighting spirit. He put the book back and turned to walk out of the Hall of Impartation.
n
n
nHe wanted to continue to comprehend the Dao, train his way of the sword, and become stronger as soon as possible to repay his Master’s supreme kindness!
n
n
nYe Luo didn’t hesitate any longer and quickly returned to the main hall square to comprehend the Dao.
n
n
nJust like that, Ye Luo entered a phase of intense cultivation. He comprehended the Dao during the day and practiced the sword at night.
n
n
n
n
n…
n
n
nIn the blink of an eye, several days passed.
n
n
nOn this day, a group of people arrived at an open space outside Sky Mist Mountain.
n
n
nAll of these people were walking on clouds. The cultivator who had the lowest cultivation level among them was at the Golden Core stage, and the highest was one who had reached the Soul Formation stage.
n
n
nThey were the experts of the major sects.
n
n
nThe black-robed elder in the lead was carrying Zhang San, and he was staring at the clouds around him with a livid expression.
n
n
nHis divine sense swept over the area in front of him.
n
n
nWhere is the Sky Mist Mountain…
n
n
nThis Zhang San is clearly playing us for fools!
n
n
n“Lawless Madman, you are indeed lawless and mad. Even up to this point, you still dare to deceive us. Do you truly think that you will not be punished for your sins?
n
n
n“Hahahaha, this is the first time I’ve been deceived in all these years! Since you are the first person to deceive me, you can have a glorious death!”
n
n
nThe black-robed old man said hoarsely, and killing intent flickered in his eyes.
n
n
nThe other experts also had ugly expressions on their faces, their eyes filled with worry. They did not manage to take back their sects’ secret manuals and techniques. If they were to return like this, it would be difficult for them to explain to their Sect Leaders.
n
n
n
n
nWhen Zhang San saw these experts’ facial expressions, he understood the severity of the matter. He repeatedly said, “It’s true! I’m not lying to you. It’s just up ahead. Sky Mist Mountain lies in the clouds. There’s a sect called Daoless Sect on the mountain!
n
n
n“Aiyo, I’m really not lying to you. If you don’t believe me, put me down, and I’ll bring you there! It’s really right in front. If it isn’t there, I’ll swallow a rock in front of all of you. Yeap, I shall use this rock! I will swallow it down my throat without the use of any dharmic powers!”
n
n
nHe pointed at a stone that was dozens of meters tall, a hundred meters away, with a determined expression.
n
n
nThe stone, “???”
n
n
nYou can all talk all you want, but what does anything have to do with me? Why do people want to keep swallowing me!?
n
n
nOn the other hand, the black-robed old man was angered to the point he started laughing instead. His divine sense had already swept over the clouds. What could possibly escape his divine sense?
n
n
nHowever, the other experts didn’t think of it this way. They all opened their mouths and asked Zhang San to bring them over.
n
n
nEven if it was just a minuscule possibility, they were willing to give it a chance.
n
n
nThe black-robed elder had no choice but to let Zhang San lead the way.
n
n
nZhang San landed on the ground and hurriedly led the experts into the clouds.
n
n
n“I’m really not bluffing. Sky Mist Mountain is just up ahead. There’s a sect called Daoless Sect on the mountain.
n
n
n“I don’t know why, but when I came here last time, the clouds weren’t so big. This time, the clouds are so big. Look, Sky Mist Mountain is right here… This…”
n
n
nZhang San looked at the empty space before him and was stunned.
n
n
nThere was no Sky Mist Mountain ahead, only billowing clouds.
n
n
nOh my god…
n
n
nWhere is the Sky Mist Mountain!?
n
n
nSky Mist Mountain, quickly come out!
n
n
nIf you don’t come out now, my head will be gone!
n
n
nZhang San did not need to turn his head to feel the cold atmosphere behind him. He had fooled a Soul Formation powerhouse and a group of Nascent Soul and Golden Core cultivators like monkeys, over and over again…
n
n
nIt was obvious what would happen to him.
n
n
nZhang San pretended to be relaxed and asked with a smile, “Hey, the weather is pretty good today. Have you guys eaten?”
n
n
nAs soon as he finished his sentence, he immediately unleashed his dharmic powers and escaped.
n
n
n“You’re courting death! Great Heaven Overturning Seal!”
n
n
nThe black-robed old man flew into a rage and struck out with his palm. An overwhelming might blasted toward Zhang San.
n
n
nRumble!
n
n
nWith Sky Mist Mountain as the center, everything within 1,000 kilometers began to tremble.
n
n
n…
n
n
nChu Yuan, who was sunbathing at the Daoless Sect’s back, was also shocked by the sound.
n
n
nHe fell over in fright.
n
n
n“Is this an earthquake?”
n
n
nChu Yuan looked around in confusion before he subconsciously released his divine sense and scanned the surroundings.
n
n
nHe immediately understood—experts were fighting outside Sky Mist Mountain!
n
n
nFurthermore, their strength made him feel threatened. The people fighting outside were stronger than him!
n
n
nWere there so many powerful cultivators in this world?
n
n
nAnyone who fought outside his sect was stronger than him.
n
n
nWas he just too weak…
n
n
nAfter grooming Ye Luo to become a useless cultivator a year later, he would only be able to reach the mid-stage Nascent Soul realm.
n
n
nIt seemed…
n
n
nProbably…
n
n
nIt was as if…
n
n
nHe was quite weak.
n
n
nNo!
n
n
nHe could not continue to be lazy like this.
n
n
nHe had to take in a few more disciples.
n
n
nIf Chu Yuan groomed a useless disciple, he would be able to raise his cultivation by a small realm.
n
n
nGrooming three useless disciples meant an increase of a major realm.
n
n
nAs long as Chu Yuan could groom 10 to 20 such disciples, he would even become invincible.
n
n
nI Went From Nascent Soul To A Supreme Being. How could this be a joke?
n
n
nRight!
n
n
nHe should go and recruit more disciples.
n
n
nIn any case, Ye Luo’s case was already stable. It would not be a problem for him to look for new disciples.
n
n
nChu Yuan’s divine sense swept over and found Ye Luo sitting cross-legged in the main hall’s square.
n
n
nHe couldn’t help but smile.
n
n
nThis disciple of mine is really cute.
n
n
nI have managed to fool him so easily without much trouble.
n
n
nAs for comprehending the Dao?
n
n
nIf he can figure something out from what I have taught him, I will kneel down, kowtow, and call him grandpa!
