I Can See Your Combat Power
Chapter 844: Chapter One Hundred Thirty-Eight: About to DepartThe answer was quite straightforward, but Tang Luo cast his doubtful gaze on Lu Ningxue.
“Thank you, Young Master Tang, for your concern. Ningxue has already submitted an application to my sect to become a traveling physician. Wherever my husband goes, Ningxue will follow,” she said with a loving stare at Mi Bai’s profile, her voice filled with emotion. The scholar couldn’t help but be enchanted when he felt the intensity of her gaze and turned his head.
Then, for no apparent reason, they began a staring match that could make one’s skin crawl, as if the world contained only this pair of “beep” man and woman. Tang Luo felt that staying in the yard was utterly superfluous and left in a huff.
Walking to the Xiao Clan leader’s training stone, the door opened automatically. The first thing he saw was over a hundred colorful dragon shadows darting around the training room. Each dragon shadow was a divine illusion, its power no less than that of a Xuan-level Spirit Art. In that small room, there were well over a hundred tails, yet such force hadn’t damaged the building at all, not even disturbing the meditation cushions or candles. This level of control over Spiritual Power was astonishing.
Even as an absolute controller of Spiritual Power himself, he admired Xiao Jinlin’s mastery of Spirit Art and couldn’t help but applaud, “Grandmaster Xiao’s prowess in Spirit Art has grown even more profound. When we first left Longxi, you could only precisely control eighty-one tails, but in just half a month, you’ve broken a hundred. Such progress is commendable!”
Spirit Qualification of the physical body is the first condition for a Grandmaster’s proof of the Way. After this stage, the human body is completely spiritualized; its structure undergoes a dramatic transformation as flesh and blood turn into a structure of Spirit Liquid and spiritual essence, even the organs change. The body becomes a vessel better suited for storing and commanding Spiritual Power, ruled by the soul.
After Spirit Qualification of the physical body, a martial artist can not only control the Spiritual Power they command but also influence the external space through their soul. Ordinary attacks no longer pose any threat to a Grandmaster.
The hundred-odd dragon shadows coalesced into one, shaping into Xiao Jinlin’s image, who smiled at Tang Luo, “The unparalleled prodigy who stands alone in his era, even if I never leave my home, I still hear rumors about Young Master Luo. No wonder the Tang Clan entrusts you with all their slots. To reach Fierce Realm at such an age is indeed unheard of.”
The journey here was too smooth; Tang Luo had stored his Spiritual Power in his core, so Xiao Jinlin naturally had not detected that this young man had reached Fierce Realm. He even thought Tang Luo was on par with Xiao Ziyu, but after hearing the rumors of the martial arts conference, he understood that these deeds were beyond what a mortal martial artist could achieve.
Defeating a hundred arenas in the outer gate, his fists shook mountains and rivers as he conquered the Demon King.In the well-founded legends, Tang Luo had become the hottest rising star in Kunwu County, and the invitations at Longxi Traveling Pavilion were piling up like a small mountain.
“This martial arts conference has brought too much attention to Longzhou. Many people are watching us now; what do you think?”
It’s said that recluses are unknown until they stun the world with a single action, but this has clashed with Longxi’s intention to develop secretly and stay under the radar. With too many interactions, some secrets are bound to be exposed, so Xiao Jinlin felt the need to warn the young man standing at the heart of the storm.
Tang Luo had already thought about this, “These social exchanges are meaningless to Longxi; refuse all those invitations through the attendants. We need to hurry back to Longxi immediately.”
“What happened?”
“Clan Leader Xiao might not be aware, but this time, I not only attracted attention, but I’ve also caused Longxi to be penalized, banned from five events. Since leaving Kunwu Divine Mountain, I’ve felt a subtle scrutiny, but no matter how I expanded my senses, I couldn’t find its source. The only one capable of all this, besides Martial Saint Mountain, is Bu Xiao, who now holds limited power as a Dao Child. But who knows how many fallen noble families within Kunwu County want to butter him up, not to mention the remnants of the defeated Mi Clan are also here. By now, they must have heard the rumors about us. Rather than risk more complications, it’s better to set off as soon as possible!”
If it had been just him and Xiao Jinlin today, they could even have walked back to Longxi on foot, but with the addition of the others, that was simply not feasible.
Not to mention Tang Xing, who had just removed his Zen thoughts and was weak, even Xiao Ziyu, Li Xuanba, and Cui Haoran would face certain death against a combined attack in the Fierce Realm. In such a situation, it was obviously better to leave as soon as possible.
After explaining the current situation, Tang Luo asked, “By the way, leader Xiao, how come I didn’t see Tang Xing all the way here? How is he now?”
Overwhelmed by a deluge of information, having just removed his Zen thoughts, he should be resting at this time. Tang Luo’s question was just to find out which room the kid was recuperating in, but the response he received was both ridiculous and amusing.
“He passed out for two hours after removing his Zen thoughts and upon waking up, he rushed out of the Traveling Pavilion. With Longying following closely behind, Tang Xing entered the Spring Fragrance Pavilion and hasn’t come out since…”
The atmosphere in the cultivation room was a bit awkward, Tang Luo’s expression slightly unnatural, his mouth twitching slightly, but in the end, he had nothing to defend himself with: “Thank you, Clan Leader Xiao. I’ll step out for a bit and set sail back in an hour.” RаꞐȯВЁS
What he was going out for was, of course, to drag the little fellow out of the Spring Fragrance Pavilion. He was really curious about just how large this kid’s heart must be.
Lost in a daze for ten days, the first thing he does upon coming out is to seek pleasure. What’s the idea here, planning to generate power through sex, to prove the Way with love?
The Sutra of No Suffering and Extinction, huh? Even if he absorbed only ten percent, wasn’t there even a slight stir within him? The Zen discipline is too weak then!
With a speechless face, Tang Luo rode to the Tianxiang Building, and after reporting his intentions to the owner, he finally saw the little fellow Tang Xing being embraced from both sides in a luxurious private room.
But unlike before, when Tang Xing saw Tang Luo entering the room, he didn’t immediately change his expression and sit up straight. Instead, he just stood up with a hug and smiled at Tang Luo, saying, “Congratulations to my elder brother for taking the top spot in the martial arts competition, overshadowing the current generation with no peer in sight!”
The two courtesans snuggling up to Tang Xing’s sides dripped with desire at the congratulatory words, looking toward Tang Luo. If there was one place in Kunwu County that had the fastest news, it was undoubtedly this place of pleasure.
The biggest novelty in Kunwu County at the moment was none other than Tang Luo, the Longxi Young Master who shook mountains and rivers with his fists. It was unexpected that such a prominent figure would appear before them; if they could establish a connection…
Ignores the two courtesans, Tang Luo walked over to the table, took the cup of wine respectfully offered by Tang Xing, drank it in one gulp, put it down, and then surveyed the boy from head to toe before saying, “It looks like after ten days of reflecting on Buddhism, you did gain something after all.”
“Better to have less of such gains,” Tang Xing replied, pouring himself another cup after watching his elder brother finish his drink. He sighed and said, “During those ten days lost in confusion, I was not myself, nearly overwhelmed by Buddhist doctrine. At that time, I thought to myself, if one day I could regain my freedom, I must travel through all the scenic landscapes and be with many more women, so as not to have lived in vain!”
