Chapter 792: Emergence of Divine Art, Shocking The World (1)
“Teacher, I heard that when someone comprehended the BattleG.o.d 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 BattleG.o.d 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 G.o.d replied.
“Huh?”
Sun Mo suddenly felt very awkward. His deduction was completely wrong.
“Because the aim of the BattleG.o.d Canyon has already been achieved and I found an outstanding successor, hence, the murals no longer have any purpose to exist.”
The Battle G.o.d 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 G.o.d 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 G.o.d 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 BattleG.o.d 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 BattleG.o.d Catalog. If people knew that I obtained it, how badly would I be hara.s.sed?)
(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 G.o.d 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 BattleG.o.d Catalog. Are you at ease now?”
“Teacher, I will always be paying attention to this place. If someone pa.s.ses the sixth stage, I will personally impart the BattleG.o.d 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 G.o.d 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 BattleG.o.d 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 BattleG.o.d Catalog, the murals would vanish. Hence, the news that Sun Mo had obtained the BattleG.o.d 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 BattleG.o.d 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 BattleG.o.d 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 BattleG.o.d 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 relations.h.i.+ps 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 BattleG.o.d 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 BattleG.o.d 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 compet.i.tiveness 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 BattleG.o.d 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 BattleG.o.d 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 ma.s.sage 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 BattleG.o.d 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 pa.s.s 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 a.n.a.lyze!”
“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 BattleG.o.d 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 a.n.a.lyzed. “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 BattleG.o.d 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 a.n.a.lysis 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!)
