Chapter 1.1: Waking Up
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
Li Yunxiao was in a state of trance. Various scenes occasionally flashed through his mind like he lived the life of another person. From time to time, his body quivered like an epileptic—shouting, laughing, and crying…
What was peculiar within his mind was a deep voice vibrating continuously as if it was chanting a strange scripture. Sometimes, when Yunxiao listened in with careful intent, he thought the scripture was a mental cultivation method. His body swayed uncontrollably along with the pace of the scripture, and sometimes he became crazy as masses of information piled up in his mind one after another.
Finally, one day, he was tortured to the point of fainting. When he regained his consciousness, all the fragmented pieces connected together in one dot and appeared in his mind.
Yunxiao’s limpid eyes were like clear water, like stars that existed for eons.
It was profound and deep.
He finally awakened.
“To think I’ve crossed through the cycle of rebirth!” Yunxiao’s eyes shot out stars as he turned his head slightly to look at the towering statue outside the window. “Year 1033 in the Heavenly Martial Realm… did I, Gu Feiyang, did… did I not die 15 years ago…?”
“Li Yunxiao!” Said a voice from nowhere.
Whoosh!
An unknown figure threw a board of chalk at his face.
Yunxiao glanced up and casually snatched the chalk midair with a pinch of his two fingers and looked coldly on at the teacher, Luo Yunchang. By the looks on the teacher’s face, she was in her moody days.
He never paid heed in class to begin with. It’d be unusual if he did and it resulted in the teacher picking on him constantly. She needed some unlucky guy to vent out her bottled rage on.
Notoriously known as the useless waste, Yunxiao was the best candidate for teachers to poke fun off if for some reason their anger was ticked off. When teachers were in a bad mood, the students knew Yunxiao would go through a moment full of sufferings.
The peers around him snickered and gloated in excitement. Their faces were filled with anticipation as they leaned back and watched the eventful show. There were even a few students who started heckling.
Yunxiao squinted his eyes and looked at Luo Yunchang who stood at the front podium.
Thinking to himself, he said, “This girl’s figure is explosive. Her silky long hair is beautiful. If she wore a red colored robe, silver boots, blue cape, and a frosty look donned on, she’d look like another Red Lotus Martial Emperor. Heh, she has a lot of potential! Ah, that Red Lotus will kill me for sure was she to find out what I’m thinking!”
Lou Yunchang’s heart suddenly shook.
Yunxiao’s eyes flashed a perverted smile causing her entire body to tremble uncontrollably.
She felt like a docile little white rabbit chased and stared down by a ferocious tiger. In that instant, she felt a sense of powerlessness like she’d fallen into a deep abyss.
“What just happened? That brat’s gaze… he seemed to be laughing just now? Impossible! I’m a Martial Grand Master at the Fourth-Star Realm! How can someone like me grow easily distracted by an ordinary kid? Must’ve been stuck at ‘that’ matter recently causing my mind to turn into a bit of a mess…”
The astonishment in her eyes flashed and she soon recovered her wits, then the color of her eyes darkened while the corners of her mouth curled to a sneer. “Li Yunxiao, we talked about the forging of Profound Weapons just now. Please tell us, how many forging methods exists for an ordinary Profound Weapon?”
Luo Yunchang taught the students the basic knowledge of Martial Arts Refinement. Though only a few people were able to become a Martial Arts Refiner, the most basic knowledge of Martial Arts Refinement was still something that needed to be instilled in the minds of the youth.
“Forging Profound Weapons? Hahhh… I’m a Ninth-Star Martial Emperor Alchemist in the Heavenly Martial Realm. Other than those old fogey bastards, who would dare to compare with me?!” Yunxiao said inwardly.
Fifteen years ago, Gu Feiyang, one of the Ten Great Martial Emperors of the Heavenly Martial Realm met an accident and fell in Heaven Wave Mountain Range which shook the entire continent! After the event, many of the major forces rose and stirred up various conflicts. The pressure grew more intense.
Heaven Martial Realm which had been quiet for hundreds of years became turbulent.
“There are a total of forty-eight forging methods for a normal Profound Weapon,” Yunxiao said casually.
“Forty-eight different kinds?”
The classroom grew silent, then suddenly burst out in laughter.
“Haha! This kid is indeed sleeping with his eyes open!”
“Right, didn’t I say so?! Looking at his calm demeanor, I actually thought he knew! Almost had me fooled for a second!”
“Tch! If he knew this, he’d have long become the continent’s iron protector!”
Yunxiao frowned. His gaze immediately fell on the textbook in front of him and he quickly flipped through the book.
“There are a total of thirty-six methods to refine an ordinary Profound Weapon. They are…”
Yunxiao closed the textbook after skimming through the pages. On the cover was a large emboldened words titled, “On the Basics of Cultivation.” At the bottom of the page cover was a small line stating, “Written by Yang Di”.
“Didn’t I tell him that there are forty-eight common forging techniques? That brat actually took my words as mere nothing! In the future, you don’t need to listen to my lectures anymore!” Yunxiao thought in his heart.
He immediately sentenced the author of “On the Basics of Cultivation” to death. If Yang Di knew about this, he’d probably cry himself to death.
