"Am... am I going to die?"
Sun Mo turned over and lay on the cold floor, looking at the ceiling. He didn't call for help because there was no longer any meaning to it.
At this moment, Sun Mo's state of mind was strangely calm.
"Hehe, I thought I would be afraid!"
Sun Mo laughed. He felt a little proud that he wasn't afraid of death!
(Wrong!)
Sun Mo only lay flat for a few seconds before he struggled again. He grabbed the table and climbed up. After that, he picked up a quill and continued to record his current feelings.
Some people's deaths were as light as a goose feather, but some people's deaths were as heavy as Mount Tai!
Sun Mo didn't have the extravagant hope of becoming a major character. He only wanted his life to have some value.
At the very least, he mustn't suffer any losses!
Sun Mo had already exhausted all his strength writing. Hence, he was panting and coughing up blood. He had no way to leave any last words for the Calabash Brothers.
"Ziqi, tell everyone that they have to forgive me!"
Sun Mo recorded the changes and feelings in his body. This allowed him to clearly experience the pain brought about by the illness. However, at this moment, he couldn't be bothered to complain.
Because he was on the verge of death, Sun Mo especially cherished these last moments. In addition to his excessive concentration, a large amount of inspiration burst forth in his mind.
Sun Mo had not only obtained many books from the Absolute Great Teacher System, but he had also accumulated a vast amount of experience and learned many things in the past 20 years in the Nine Provinces. At this moment, they were like firewood, and the opportunity of death was like a spark, igniting these firewood!
(I've been restricted by modern thinking. The spirit rune CPU doesn't have to be made into a circuit board. It can also be made into a totem. After all, there's spirit qi in this world. A totem can better increase the usage of spirit qi.)
If one wanted to increase the might of a spirit rune device, the essence was still to maximize the usage of spirit qi. One had to output more power in a unit of time.
There should be a way to make spirit qi produce an effect similar to atomic fission. In essence, it could turn spirit qi into a higher level of energy.
Spirit qi nuclear energy was possible!
The core of signing a spiritual contract should be based on local conditions and benefits. It shouldn't be based on some bullsh * t understanding.
Different species had different worldviews. How could they understand each other?
In truth, these divine languages were a secret art to erase the other party's will. In essence, they were all enslavement and subjugation.
…
In Sun Mo's mind, all sorts of thoughts gushed out like mercury, gushing out like a gushing river. He couldn't be bothered to feel regret and could only write furiously, doing his best to retain them.
Even if it was just a little bit!
Finally, Sun Mo's right hand lost its strength and couldn't hold onto the quill anymore. His entire body slid toward the ground.
In fact, Sun Mo didn't even feel sentimental or emotional. His mind was still focused on all sorts of inspirations, doing his best to climb the stairs to the peak of wisdom.
Cough, cough!
Sun Mo coughed up another large mouthful of blood. He had no fear and didn't mind it at all. It was only when his eyelids couldn't take it anymore and he had no choice but to close them and his consciousness started to blur that Sun Mo gave up on thinking.
"That's enough. At least I didn't waste my life!"
What Sun Mo was most proud of was that he had implemented various policies in the Central Province Academy, helping many children who couldn't afford to attend school to change their fates.
He was worthy of the title of a great teacher.
Hu!
Sun Mo let out a long sigh. He could finally rest for a while.
Dong! Dong! Dong!
Sun Mo's heart stopped beating.
However, just seven seconds later, Sun Mo's body trembled as if he had been electrocuted. His heart started beating again.
Swoosh!
Sun Mo opened his eyes. A tremendous amount of spirit qi was like tidal waves, gushing over and entering his body.
In the unseen world, there seemed to be a voice ringing out!
"Child, you are my pride. Please grow up quickly and become the shepherd of the nine provinces!"
...
In the Starry Academy's campus, those great teachers who were giving lessons all stopped and looked out the window. Very soon, the students of the higher years also sensed it.
In the end, it was the newbies who had just stepped into the body-refinement realm. They didn't sense the changes in the spirit qi, but they could see it.
At this moment, the clouds in the sky were turbulent, and lightning flashed and thunder roared.
Many spirit qi tornadoes were formed, wreaking havoc. It was as if several tens of thick jade pillars had suddenly appeared in the world.
"This... is a secondary saint leveling up?"
A major character exclaimed in shock!
In the office, Headmaster Sun lifted his head. After that, his body disappeared from the spot.
...
In the laboratory, Bai Qiusheng was busy. All of a sudden, spirit qi surged. Because it was too intense, it formed a huge wind pressure.
Huala! Huala!
The equipment was blown over and scattered all over the ground.
"What's going on? Someone is leveling up? "
"This commotion is too big. It shouldn't be a leveling up!"
"Wait a minute. In the past, I was fortunate enough to see an 8-star great teacher leveling up to a secondary saint. The spirit qi fluctuation was also this great!"
The great teachers and assistants in the laboratory were stunned for a moment. After that, they immediately came out and ran toward the direction where the spirit qi was gathering.
"Everyone, stop and stay where you are!"
A deep voice suddenly rang out. Although it wasn't loud, it clearly rang out in everyone's ears.
They subconsciously stopped in their tracks.
These were the words of a saint. His words were the law!
There was no need to ask. Headmaster Sun had come!
The time of waiting was the most torturous. Luckily, a drama would eventually end. The spirit qi in the air was like the receding tide, gradually returning to calmness.
A strange fragrance drifted in the air, causing one to feel refreshed when they smelled it. It was like they were in a forest after a rain, with oxygen-rich ions filling their lungs.
"Headmaster... headmaster!"
Bai Qiusheng came. His expression was one of surprise and shock as he asked, "Sun... Great Teacher Sun has become a secondary saint?"
The others also looked over, waiting for Headmaster Sun's reply.
Actually, there was no need for Headmaster Sun to say anything. Bai Qiusheng already knew the result. It was because when he was thinking of Sun Mo's name earlier, he couldn't even say it out loud.
This was the power of the saint title. Mortals couldn't directly call out the names of saints and secondary saints. They had to maintain their respect for them.
"Mn!"
Headmaster Sun smiled. "Let's go and take a look together?"
Si ~
Everyone drew in a cold gasp of air.
Becoming a secondary saint before the age of 40? Sun Mo was the first person in the world to do so!
Most probably, no one would be able to break this record in the future.
In the room, Sun Mo lay on the ground and didn't get up. Right now, his emotions were a little complicated.
He actually didn't die?
Moreover, he even became a secondary saint?
What was the goddess of luck doing?
Could it be that she was preparing to make him her lover?
This time around, you didn't just lift up the corners of your skirt. You simply took off everything and let me feast my eyes. No, you even wanted to do an impromptu dance.
Immediately after, Sun Mo felt happy.
Since he was fine, did this mean that the medicine was a success? Didn't this mean that Xiaowei and Li Luoran could be saved?
Sun Mo jumped up and just when he wanted to look for Bai Qiusheng, the room's door was pushed open with a creaking sound.
Headmaster Sun and his group entered through the door.
"Congratulations, Great Teacher Sun, for becoming a secondary saint. I hope that you can reach the next level and become a saint as soon as possible, having students all over the world!"
Headmaster Sun congratulated. He looked at Sun Mo with a gaze filled with surprise. After that, it turned into intense admiration.
(You actually did it?)
(I've really misjudged you in the past!)
"Congratulations, Teacher Sun, for becoming a secondary saint!"
Bai Qiusheng and his group congratulated in unison. They even had respectful looks on their faces and bowed.
They addressed him as Teacher Sun not because they were being polite or trying to curry favor with him. Rather, this was the rule of the great teacher world. No matter how old Sun Mo was, as long as he was a secondary saint, he had the qualifications to lecture anyone with the attitude of a teacher.
Even 8-star great teachers would have to listen attentively.
"Thank you, everyone!"
Sun Mo didn't feel complacent. He was still very humble. "Old... great teachers, there's no need to be so polite!"
Sun Mo had wanted to be humble and address everyone as teacher, but he could only say the word 'old'. There was no helping it. This was the pride and pride of a secondary saint.
Even if Sun Mo wanted to be humble, he couldn't address others as teacher. Other than saints, no one was qualified to be a secondary saint's teacher.
Bai Qiusheng looked at Sun Mo, so envious that he was about to drool.
Not only was there a fragrance coming from his body, but there was also spirit qi that turned into birds and baby beasts that danced around him happily.
There was a strange fragrance coming from his body and spirit qi turning into spirit qi. These were the characteristics of a secondary saint.
From today onward, no matter where Sun Mo appeared, he would be treated as an esteemed guest.
"Secondary saint, may I ask what holy words you heard earlier?"
A great teacher mustered up his courage and asked.
The others also stared at Sun Mo, feeling very curious.
Once one became a secondary saint, they would be able to listen to holy words. It was said that this was a blessing bestowed by the heavens.
It was said that there were people with great fortune and great wisdom in the Nine Provinces who were born with knowledge. However, such people were too rare. For a secondary saint to listen to holy words, it was also a kind of knowledge acquired after birth.
It was said that if they encountered a problem they didn't understand, they could pray to the heavens. There was a 50% chance that they would receive an answer.
Just when Sun Mo wanted to tell them, the system that had disappeared for an unknown period of time suddenly spoke.
"Don't tell them!"
The system's voice was cold, containing a coldness that kept people a thousand miles away, without any emotions.
"Where have you been during this period of time?"
Sun Mo frowned.
However, the system no longer replied.
"..."
Sun Mo was unhappy, but since the system wanted him to keep it a secret, it was best not to say it. Therefore, he shook his head. "Sorry."
"Sigh!"
Everyone was a little disappointed.
"Don't misunderstand Secondary Saint Sun. Only he can understand the holy words he heard. Even if he says it now, you guys won't be able to hear it."
Headmaster Sun helped to explain.
"Can't hear it?"
An experimental assistant was astonished.
"That's right. If his cultivation base is too low, he might even be injured by the holy words!"
Headmaster Sun's expression was solemn. "In light cases, he might go deaf. In heavy cases, he might become an idiot."
Everyone believed in Headmaster Sun's character and didn't doubt his words. Therefore, all of them revealed expressions of lingering fear.
"Alright, you guys have seen what the secondary saint looks like. Go out now. I have something to discuss with Secondary Saint Sun!"
Headmaster Sun had accumulated a lot of prestige in the Starry Academy. If he didn't say the holy words, these great teachers wouldn't dare to go against him.
After everyone left and the door closed, Headmaster Sun looked at Sun Mo. He had wanted to say something, but he held back when the words were at the tip of his tongue.
Sigh!
(I'm not qualified.)
Sun Mo didn't notice Headmaster Sun's small detail. Instead, he impatiently asked, "I'm fine now. Does that prove that the medicine is effective? If we reduce the dosage, even if it can't completely cure the darkness illness, it can alleviate the symptoms and extend their lifespan, right? "
"Secondary... Saint Sun..."
Headmaster Sun wanted to say something but hesitated.
"Headmaster, please speak your mind!"
Sun Mo suddenly had a bad premonition.
"That medicine isn't used to treat the darkness illness!"
Headmaster Sun sighed and told the truth, "It's a type of 'illusion medicine' known as bluefish. It's extracted from a type of deep-sea fish."
Although the various complications were extremely tragic and Sun Mo's body would be drained dry, he wouldn't actually die.
"What do you mean?"
Sun Mo's eyes turned malevolent.
"An Zhizhi's attacks are too fierce. We don't have time. We need you to grow up as soon as possible!"
Headmaster Sun explained.
"I don't know what you're talking about!"
Sun Mo bellowed, "Are you messing with me?"
"I can't explain it clearly. It's just like how I explained the holy words earlier. There are some words that I can't say out loud. Otherwise, I might be discovered and harm you."
Headmaster Sun smiled bitterly.
"Discovered by who?"
Sun Mo asked, but Headmaster Sun had no intention of explaining. "You're doing this because you want me to strive for the secondary saint realm?"
"That's right!"
Headmaster Sun nodded. "But to speak the truth, I don't have much hope because it's too difficult."
Sun Mo was already an 8-star great teacher at such a young age, and he was also the number one in the Nine Provinces. Anyone who reached this stage would be considered to have achieved success. If Sun Mo were to continue to strive for the secondary saint realm, his determination would definitely not be enough.
Moreover, if one wanted to become a secondary saint, they had to have a breakthrough in their mental state, body, and thoughts. A person might not even encounter such a thing once in their entire life.
Headmaster Sun had no solution and could only lie to Sun Mo.
Luckily, Sun Mo didn't become dispirited. Even when he was on the verge of death, he still didn't give up on the battle and wanted to exert his remaining energy. Hence, unknowingly, he matched the true meaning of 'dedication'.
Sun Mo wasn't just saying this. He used his life to interpret this word. Until the very last moment of 'death', he persisted.
Hence, Sun Mo broke out of his cocoon and was reborn.
Sun Mo understood Headmaster Sun's meaning. It was like a hoodlum who idled around and fought all day suddenly turning over a new leaf, wanting to become a good man and provide for his family. He did this for his entire life and didn't give up halfway.
Only by becoming 100 times stronger than this' degree 'would he be able to see through the fog and step into the mental state of a secondary saint.
Plop!
Sun Mo sat down and grabbed his hair with both hands. After that, he slammed his head into the ground again and again.
Xiao Wei and the others still had to die!
"I'm sorry!"
Headmaster Sun lowered his head. "But I have no other choice!"
"Hehe!"
Sun Mo sneered and was so angry that he slammed his fist into the ground. After that, he got up, picked up the diary, and returned to the table. "You can go out. Don't bother me."
Among the inspirations I had just now, there seems to be a method to slow down the illness of Xiao Wei and the others.
"Aren't you going up to meet everyone? I think all the teachers and students in the school would be very happy to see the birth of a secondary saint! "
Headmaster Sun persuaded.
In his eyes, Li Luoran and the others would definitely die. He hoped that Sun Mo could find the meaning of life through the reverent gazes of the teachers and students.
"There's no need!"
Sun Mo rejected.
