"Sun Mo, quickly leave!"
Bai Wenzhang was plotted against by Xiao Feng and didn't have much combat strength left. However, in order to delay the Undying Old Man and give Sun Mo a chance of survival, he was prepared to exchange his life for Sun Mo's.
"Get lost!"
The bones in the Undying Old Man's body exploded and he was on the verge of death. However, he still wanted to live.
As long as they ate Sun Mo, they would be able to come back to life!
The Undying Old Man's eyes were filled with malevolence, like a wild beast.
"Dean, thank you."
Sun Mo carried Li Ziqi and rushed toward the door.
"Brat, come back here!"
The undying old man let out a mournful roar and became even more impatient, "Why do you want to help him? If we eat him, we can all survive. "
"For people like you, as long as you are alive, it's a blasphemy to life. But as long as Sun Mo is alive, it's the fortune of the nine provinces!"
Bai Wenzhang spoke in disdain.
"Have you gone stupid from reading so much?"
The Undying Old Man hammered his fist on Bai Wenzhang's head. "Living is something that is only right and proper. As long as you can live on, no matter what you do, it can be …"
The Undying Old Man couldn't say the word 'forgive' because a beam of spiritual light pierced through his head.
Sun Mo had left, but that was just to confuse the enemy. His clone was left behind, and when the Undying Old Man wasn't paying attention, Sun Mo gave the Undying Old Man a fatal strike.
"Ah!"
The Undying Old Man shouted.
"Even this doesn't kill him?"
Sun Mo was truly convinced. If the other party was at his peak, how strong would he be?
Was he going to take a nuclear bomb head-on with his body?
Luckily, there was still Bai Wenzhang to deal the finishing blow.
Bang!
The Undying Old Man, one of the five Grand Elders of Dark Dawn, fell to the ground.
"Dean!"
Sun Mo rushed back and hurriedly treated Bai Wenzhang.
"Didn't I tell you to run?"
Bai Wenzhang felt some lingering fear. "What if your sneak attack failed?"
"I, Sun Mo, would never abandon my friends!"
Sun Mo chuckled. "Also, don't give up. You might be saved!"
Not only was Bai Wenzhang a man, but he was also a hegemon in the spirit rune domain. But right now, he was sobbing uncontrollably.
He knew that Sun Mo had a few chances to escape. In fact, he had even allowed the Undying Old Man to drink his blood. All of these were intentional because he wanted to use Sun Mo's body to test the god-bestowed item.
It was all for him.
As expected, Sun Mo directly cut his wrist, causing fresh blood to flow out.
"Dean, don't waste it!"
Sun Mo urged.
Previously, he didn't understand why Bai Wenzhang's vitality was so weak. He thought that Bai Wenzhang had done too many experiments and was poisoned. Only after he swallowed the divine skeleton that Lu Feng spoke of did he understand.
This thing seemed to be a corpse, but it was actually alive. When Bai Wenzhang was researching it, his life force would unceasingly be sucked away.
Right now, Sun Mo was nourishing Bai Wenzhang with his blood. Although he couldn't make Bai Wenzhang jump around immediately, it was definitely not a problem for him to live for a few more years.
"Sun Mo, thank you!"
Bai Wenzhang choked.
"If you have anything to say, say it later!"
Sun Mo looked toward the Undying Old Man's corpse. He wondered what spoils of war would drop.
He was looking forward to it a little.
…
After Lu Feng escaped, he ran for three days before he hid in a valley and stopped.
"Why didn't Sun Mo die? Up until now, all the experimental bodies have either been assimilated by the divine remains and become their containers or exploded due to incompatibility. There has never been an example like Sun Mo's. "
Lu Feng didn't understand.
"Could it be because of his bloodline?"
"That can't be right. Teacher has also used his blood for experiments before, but there weren't any such signs."
"Could it be Sun Mo's mother's bloodline?"
Lu Feng sank into contemplation. After that, he started to feel conflicted again. This matter was destined to have no results because he had done this experiment behind his teacher's back. If he were to do it again, he would be kicked out of the sect.
"Forget it, I'll meet Sun Mo again after the 4-star great teacher examination!"
Lu Feng made his decision.
…
Half a month passed.
Sun Mo didn't do any surgery. Other than reading books and giving lessons to his disciples, he would spend the rest of his time recuperating.
Although there were no problems, Bai Wenzhang didn't dare to be careless. He would do a comprehensive checkup for Sun Mo every day.
Li Ziqi was also very surprised. Such a large skeleton had actually fused into her teacher's body. However, up until now, there didn't seem to be any changes to him.
(That's right, her teacher has risen by more than one level and is now at the peak of the second level of the Longevity Realm.)
The Undying Old Man had died and left behind a piece of jade. That was a peak-grade image-recording stone that contained the results of his lifetime's research.
Sun Mo wasn't interested in medical knowledge and tossed it to Tantai Yutang for him to learn by himself.
Bai Wenzhang's body also gradually recovered.
Time flowed by like a shuttle.
Unknowingly, the beginning of winter had arrived.
Sun Mo stayed in the Dragonspirit Manor for over ten months.
The time he spent here wasn't short, and his gains were even greater.
Sun Mo's knowledge of spirit runes improved by leaps and bounds. As his assistant, Li Ziqi also broadened her horizons and increased her knowledge.
Based on Sun Mo's estimation, Li Ziqi should already be at the quasi-grandmaster-level.
One must know that she was very intelligent and had participated in such peak-grade research. Whenever she encountered doubts, the people who could answer her were Sun Mo and Bai Wenzhang. It was impossible for her not to improve even if she didn't want to.
Finally, the day of separation arrived.
"Headmaster, please wait a moment. You have already sent me very far away."
Sun Mo pleaded once again.
To Bai Wenzhang, who placed a lot of importance on time, he had actually sent Sun Mo 25 miles away.
"Sigh, I wonder when would be the next time we meet?"
Bai Wenzhang sighed.
He could tell that even though Sun Mo's attainments in the study of spirit runes were extremely high, catching up to him, Sun Mo didn't have any thoughts of improving further.
If it wasn't for him urging Sun Mo, Sun Mo would most probably turn to research other subjects.
"You can also come to the Central Province Academy to look for me!"
Sun Mo smiled.
"Because of your blood, it wasn't easy for me to live for a few more years. I naturally have to hurry up and complete the experiment."
After Bai Wenzhang spoke, he suddenly got off his horse. His expression was solemn as he bowed deeply toward Sun Mo.
"Sun Mo, thank you for giving me the chance to see the final answer!"
Bai Wenzhang thanked him.
"Headmaster, why are you doing this?"
Sun Mo hurriedly got off his horse and wanted to help Bai Wenzhang up. However, Bai Wenzhang didn't move at all. Sun Mo maintained his bowing posture and only straightened his back three minutes later.
"Alright, all good things must come to an end. You can leave!"
Bai Wenzhang patted Sun Mo's shoulder heavily. "I congratulate you in advance for becoming the top ranker of the 4-star great teacher examination!"
After that, Bai Wenzhang looked toward Li Ziqi.
"I congratulate you in advance for becoming the champion of the student battle and ascending to the Hero Rankings!"
Li Ziqi hurriedly bowed back.
...
After Bai Wenzhang left, Sun Mo also began his journey back to the city.
"System, what's my current ranking in the study of spirit runes? I should be in the top ten of the Nine Provinces, right? "
Sun Mo was curious.
"The top five of the Nine Provinces are not ranked in any order!"
The system replied.
"What?"
Sun Mo was stunned. "Not ranked in any order? Doesn't that mean that I'm also tied for first place? Speaking of which, I'm so impressive, but aren't you going to reward me? "
