"What is that?"
Sun Mo frowned. Actually, at the instant the divine book was about to enter his chest, he had already seen it clearly. But out of instinct, he still teleported and dodged it.
The divine book missed and knocked into the formless barrier of the palace gate. It bounced back a little and then fell to the ground with a thud.
(Oh my god, it's so painful!)
The divine book wriggled like a heavily injured patient on the verge of death.
The onlookers gathered here looked at each other in dismay.
"Great Teacher Sun, it wants you to flip through it. Why don't you just take a look?"
The librarian squeezed into the crowd and looked at Sun Mo with a face filled with resentment. (Do you know how precious this opportunity is?
But you rejected it time and time again.
Also, the divine book is so disappointing. You are like a bootlicker who refuses to give up despite being cheated by a green tea girl.)
"What on earth do you want to do?"
Sun Mo asked.
Swish ~
The divine book flew to Sun Mo and hovered in the air. After that, it moved up a little.
"Could it be that it is adjusting its position so that Great Teacher Sun will feel comfortable reading it?"
Everyone was dumbfounded. This posture was so flattering.
Sun Mo didn't move and looked toward Wei Ziyou.
"If you don't get its permission, you won't be able to open this book. But since you got it, there won't be any danger."
Wei Ziyou laughed. "You don't have to worry."
"Alright then!"
Sun Mo truly didn't wish to continue being so eye-catching. Since Sage Wei had given him a guarantee, he would just take a look.
The divine book opened and balls of light the size of cherries shot out from the pages, entering Sun Mo's glabella. Their speed was so fast that even the great teachers with extremely high cultivation bases in the surroundings couldn't see them clearly.
"Mn?"
Sun Mo trembled. When these balls of light entered his mind, they transformed into many ferocious beasts, insects, plants, flowers, and birds. Very soon, they formed a picture of nature in his mind.
"So this is the case!"
Sun Mo was enlightened.
This Divine Book was actually a Spirit Communication Manual. What was recorded on it were all Spirit Communication Techniques. Some were common, while some were precious and rare. As for the Divine Book itself, it was also a type of Spirit Communication Body. Thus, only by obtaining its approval could one open this book.
In that case, what was the standard for its approval?
It was wisdom!
Sun Mo had subdued another divine book. During this period of time, he was able to 'summon the wind and summon the rain' in Jixia Learning Palace. This had proven his wisdom and knowledge.
Such a person would naturally be able to read it.
"You want someone with intelligence to pass down these Spirit Communication Techniques, right?"
Sun Mo smiled and recommended to Shen Shu. "Actually, you can take a look at my personal disciples, especially Ziqi and Zhiruo. They are very suitable candidates."
"Ziqi, come over here."
Sun Mo called his Calabash Brothers over.
The Divine Book glanced over and wasn't interested. However, when it 'saw' Lu Zhiruo, it was so agitated that it started flipping pages.
Whoosh!
The divine book rushed to the papaya girl and respectfully invited her to open it.
"Ah?"
Lu Zhiruo didn't know what to do.
"Open it!"
Sun Mo assessed the lucky mascot. (This should be its opportunity, right?)
Seems like the papaya girl's good luck wasn't some kind of metaphysics but something that truly existed. In that case, what was the cause of this?
"It seems that she has an astonishing talent in the art of spiritual control."
Wei Ziyou was shocked.
...
After chatting with Wei Ziyou for an entire night and being 'educated' by his future mother-in-law, Sun Mo's trip to the Jixia Learning Palace came to a perfect end.
One could say that the seven days of Jixia lectures, leaving his name in the Myriad Saints Palace, and conquering two divine books — these legendary performances caused Sun Mo to be completely convinced by all the teachers and students of this famous school with the longest history.
Even though Sun Mo's lecture tour had only been conducted for one round, there was no suspense anymore. The marvelous and perfect Jixia lectures directly killed the competition.
Sun Mo was the number one great teacher in the Nine Provinces, reigning supreme since ancient times.
In reality, this was also the case. In the next one and a half years, Sun Mo conducted 12 rounds of lectures in 12 major cities with a population of over 5 million. Each of them was extremely popular and packed to the brim.
As Sun Mo's reputation grew increasingly greater, many people came from far away to listen to his lectures. As the distance was too far, many people didn't manage to hear the entire lecture. Hence, they collectively petitioned for Sun Mo to speak for a few more days.
Hence, the original plan of seven days of lectures for each lecture was postponed. However, because there were enough listeners, other than Sun Mo's fame spreading throughout the world, he also brought about a wave of craze for learning spirit runes.
Spirit rune technology would definitely be a huge force that pushed the world forward in the future.
When the students saw the spirit particle calculator, the spirit rune gun, as well as Sun Mo's newly created spirit lamp, all of them were deeply attracted by this subject.
Although everyone didn't know what electricity was, they were all stunned when they saw that the light emitted by that simple metal lamp was over 1,000 times brighter than the tallow candles used by the wealthy. It could disperse the darkness and illuminate the place as if it was daytime.
Refining top-grade alchemy pills could indeed allow one to strengthen their body and even allow them to live to a hundred years old. However, what was the meaning of living in an outdated world?
In the future, spirit runes would be mass-produced using machines. All sorts of spirit rune devices that could make life easier and more convenient would enter everyone's homes.
The study of alchemy had once been the most popular subject in the Nine Provinces. But now, the study of spirit runes had already surpassed the second most popular study of weaponsmithing and was catching up to the study of alchemy.
Some major characters in the alchemy world felt that they had been offended and that their benefits were being invaded. Hence, they started to suppress the study of spirit runes.
This was understandable. After all, grandmasters in popular subjects would definitely be more valuable than those grandmasters in unorthodox subjects. If famous schools wanted to headhunt them, they would have to pay a higher price.
The popularity of the study of spirit runes also exceeded Sun Mo's expectations.
In his expectations, scientific cultivation would become the mainstream. Now, not many people would pay attention to it. However, it was fine. Sun Mo was still young. At most, he could just do it again.
In any case, Sun Mo's lecture tour of the Nine Provinces was a great success.
For the last lecture, the location Sun Mo chose was naturally his hometown, Jinling. After the lecture, Su Taiqing, who had been waiting at the side, directly gave Sun Mo the 8-star great teacher emblem.
At this point, Sun Mo's two stars had risen consecutively. After becoming a 7-star great teacher, he immediately participated in the examination and obtained the 8-star great teacher emblem, creating a new record.
Sun Mo wasn't only the youngest 8-star great teacher, but he was also the youngest great teacher in each star-level. At the same time, he was also the one who stayed in each star-level for the shortest time and rose the fastest.
These records were all broken by Sun Mo.
When those who came later saw these records, even if they wanted to break them, they wouldn't be able to. In fact, they might even feel despair because they were too far away.
...
Central Province Academy, in the backyard of the villa.
After Sun Mo finished practicing a set of the Universe Formless Divine Art, he sat on a long chair. A maid standing at the side immediately brought a cup of fruit juice and passed it to Sun Mo.
"Mn!"
Sun Mo drank two mouthfuls and his brows furrowed. He then walked toward the living room.
As expected, Gu Xiuxun's voice soon rang out.
"Sun Mo, there's a big news."
In the living room, Gu Xiuxun took off her jacket and directly sat on the sofa with a relaxed look on her face. "I'm so thirsty. Quickly get me a cup of water."
"What news?"
Sun Mo was curious and passed the fruit juice to Gu Xiuxun. After that, his gaze swept past her chest and her long legs.
(Aren't your casual clothes a little too sexy?)
Gu Xiuxun didn't say anything. She frowned and swept a glance toward the living room. "Why aren't you turning on the heater?"
The rich families of the Nine Provinces knew how to build earth coils, but they would have to burn a large amount of charcoal. It was a huge waste and would also pollute the environment. Hence, Sun Mo invented a spirit rune heater that was powered by spirit stones.
It was the size of a suitcase and had the Sun Innate Spirit Rune that Sun Mo invented on it. Once it was switched on, it would be able to generate heat.
"Why would I turn on the heater?"
Sun Mo rolled his eyes and sat beside Gu Xiuxun.
During these two years, Sun Mo's performance was too good. Not only did he obtain many treasure chests from the system, but he also accumulated a lot of favorable impression points. Hence, he bought many nature fruits to level up. Right now, he was already at the eighth level of the Longevity Realm and was immune to both heat and cold.
If he continued to work hard, he would be able to enter the legendary realm within three years.
"That's true!"
Gu Xiuxun nodded. After that, she rolled her eyes and used her elbow to nudge Sun Mo. She then secretly inquired, "How much money do you have now?"
"Why?"
Sun Mo indicated for the maid to bring more drinks over.
"I'm just curious!"
Gu Xiuxun's lips twitched. "Your spirit energy fan and spirit energy heater are very popular now. They have become important tools for the rich and nobles to compete with each other. Whoever doesn't have them wouldn't be considered rich and powerful."
"..."
Sun Mo mentally mused. (I even created a luxury item?)
"Those rich and powerful people know how to enjoy life the most. These two items of yours are also very convenient. No matter where you go, you can bring them with you. This is especially so for that fan. When you turn it on during summer, it's simply too comfortable."
Gu Xiuxun was joyful. "You don't know this, but those 'friends' who have cut off contact with Sister An in the past have also come to find you. Not only do they want one, but they also want an even bigger one."
"The technical content of this item is all in the creativity and spirit runes. Once it's developed, any seventh-year graduate who majored in spirit runes would be able to create it."
Sun Mo was very happy. Creating a world-class product that could enter millions of households in the future, increasing their quality of life. This would give people a sense of pride.
At the very least, his knowledge had produced value.
"I know. Many grandmasters of spirit runes are trying to decipher these two spirit runes. After all, the market is too big. As long as you can create them yourself, you would be able to earn a lot of money."
Gu Xiuxun estimated that it was only a matter of time before Sun Mo became the richest man in the Nine Provinces.
"It's useless to just decipher the spirit runes. We still need to create alloys!"
Sun Mo smiled. "The metals used to carry the spirit runes are also very particular. Take a heater for example. If the metal used isn't good enough, it would result in the heating efficiency being low. It might even be dangerous.
"However, there are too many people learning spirit runes now. Just in our school, many students have switched to studying spirit runes."
Gu Xiuxun was worried that if there were too many people learning spirit runes, it would be hard for them to find a job.
"Don't worry, this industry requires a lot of talents!"
Sun Mo consoled. "At the very least, those who graduated from our school can earn money by creating these two items to support their families."
"That's true!"
Gu Xiuxun nodded. Cultivation was a very difficult path. There were too few major characters who could break through the void. Many people would be satisfied if they could live for several more years after reaching the Longevity Realm.
"Speak, what big news do you have?"
Sun Mo smiled and asked.
