After Sun Mo saw Fang Wuan's data, he estimated that there was an 80 to 90% chance that this fellow would fight to the death.
Although his Immemorial Vairocana was a saint-tier cultivation art, its main usage was to strike out the cultivation arts of others. In terms of attack prowess, it was a level weaker compared to other saint-tier cultivation arts.
Hence, Sun Mo used himself as bait, using the Invulnerable Golden Body to receive the opponent's ultimate skill head-on. After that, he retaliated with 'An eye for an eye'.
The Invulnerable Golden Body negated a portion of Fang Wuan's sword force. Hence, Sun Mo's internal organs were fine. Only a large wound appeared on his chest. However, Fang Wuan wasn't so lucky. His internal organs were destroyed by Sun Mo's blade force.
One was dead, while the other was heavily injured. No matter how one looked at it, it was a profit.
Naturally, after this battle, Sun Mo would need to recuperate for one to two months.
"As expected of an extremely high potential value. It's too difficult to deal with!"
Sun Mo started to reflect on himself. He mustn't become arrogant just because he won against someone like Zhang Qianlin. A true genius would be strong beyond your imagination!
Ying Baiwu didn't know how to administer first aid and was extremely anxious. Luckily, Li Ziqi knew a little. In addition to the papaya girl's assistance, they soon stopped Sun Mo's bleeding and bandaged his wound.
Patter! Patter!
The three little girls kept crying, crying like pear blossoms in the rain.
"I'm fine, I won't die!"
Sun Mo consoled, "Baiwu, go and search his body. Bring that bow over!"
This longbow was definitely a top-grade weapon.
"Teacher!"
Ying Baiwu didn't move. She used her gaze to indicate to Sun Mo that he had to be careful not to be ambushed by the eight-gate cloud.
Ever since Sun Mo killed Fang Wuan, this mysterious species of darkness didn't leave. It quietly floated tens of meters away and watched as Li Ziqi and the others treated Sun Mo.
"It's okay, it shouldn't be hostile."
As Sun Mo spoke, he wanted to raise his hand to greet her, but his wound was too painful.
"Teacher, it must have taken a fancy to your Ancient Dragon Capturing Hands!"
Li Ziqi hurriedly told Sun Mo about her discovery.
Sun Mo started, but after that, he felt that this made sense. After all, this cloud was also a type of lifeform. It was just that he didn't know how to reproduce.
"Thank you!"
As Sun Mo spoke, he activated Divine Sight.
Xiu!
The eight trigrams cloud was very sensitive and instantly rushed into the great hall, hiding. Only a silver trail was left behind in the air, mocking Sun Mo's ignorance.
Actually, Sun Mo was purely curious about this life form and wanted to find out more about it.
Before this, Sun Mo had wanted to capture it. But after being saved by it, he dispelled this thought. Sun Mo wasn't someone who would bite the hand that fed him.
Ying Baiwu walked at the very front, followed by Li Ziqi and Lu Zhiruo. They supported Sun Mo as they entered the great hall.
Jiji!
Little loachie used its teeth to bite the papaya girl's sleeves, not allowing her to enter because the Wind King was too dangerous. However, who would be willing to give up such a great treasure trove?
The four of them walked up the altar, and before they could speak, the majestic and ancient voice rang out.
"What an exciting duel! Congratulations, winner!"
The tone of the Wind King was still as lofty as before. It was like he was a Roman aristocrat who was watching the gladiators kill each other.
"How many years have you been imprisoned? Ten thousand years? One hundred thousand years? "
Sun Mo mocked.
Li Ziqi couldn't help but laugh.
Don't hit people's faces when you want to beat them up, don't expose their shortcomings when scolding them. However, her teacher was really good.
"Ant, do you know who you are talking to?"
The Wind King roared.
"Retract your arrogance. If you wish to leave, you can only rely on us. If not, you can just wait to die of old age here!"
Sun Mo sat on the ground. "Tell me the price you can offer."
"The longbow in that girl's hand is called the Wind King Bow. It's a saint weapon. As long as the user has spirit qi, they can form arrows endlessly and never need to worry about the arrows running out. Also, its color is translucent and is very suitable for long-range attacks."
The Wind King explained.
"Saint weapon?"
"Infinite arrows?"
"Semi-transparent?"
The three girls exclaimed in shock. Among the weapons in Middle-Earth Nine Provinces, spirit weapons were already very rare. Saint weapons were even rarer. They didn't expect to encounter one here. Moreover, its name sounded very tyrannical.
"There's no need for you to say it, I know."
Sun Mo used Divine Sight to scan it. It was an inferior-grade saint weapon, a very peak-grade weapon. "Baiwu, take it and use it!"
"Mn!"
Ying Baiwu didn't decline. She remembered her teacher saying that she was proficient in archery and should work hard to become an archery god instead of a sword maiden!
The iron-headed girl held the bow with her left hand and pulled the bowstring with her right. As expected, as she released her spirit qi, a translucent arrow was formed.
Swoosh!
The arrow shot out with the speed of a shooting star, instantly blasting into the wall.
"So fast!"
Lu Zhiruo praised.
The spirit qi roaming dragon felt its scalp turning numb. To a mysterious species of darkness like them, they were most afraid of long-range weapons.
"Ziqi, you can use this longsword!"
Ying Baiwu removed the White Bird longsword from her waist and passed it to the little sunny egg.
"Given my combat strength, it's useless even if I hold it!"
Li Ziqi bitterly smiled.
"That's why I'm letting you hold it. After you inject spirit qi into it, you can release a spirit qi white bird to attack your enemies."
Ying Baiwu forcefully stuffed the longsword into Li Ziqi's hands.
Sun Mo was very satisfied when he saw the modesty between the two martial sisters. At the very least, he didn't have to worry that they would turn against each other and become enemies after seeing top-grade battle spoils.
"Wind King, just by hearing the name of this bow, anyone would know that it has something to do with you. So, don't say that you don't have a cultivation art to complement it. Come, give us one!"
Sun Mo extorted.
"Haha, I naturally have one. Let's see how much you guys can learn!"
As the Wind King laughed, the spring water in the center of the altar gushed out, forming a 'Ying Baiwu'. She then performed the Wind King Divine Art while reciting the cultivation art's outline.
Sun Mo immediately activated 'copy' and stared at every move of 'Ying Baiwu'.
Twenty minutes later, 'Ying Baiwu' finished reciting the entire cultivation art and turned into a puddle of water before vanishing.
"How is it? Have you memorized it? "
The Wind King ridiculed.
The entire Wind King Divine Art had over 1,200 words. Because it was written in the ancient language of the nine provinces, not only was it difficult to understand, but it was also very difficult to pronounce it.
Even if a great teacher came, they wouldn't dare to say that they had memorized it because they wouldn't be able to understand it at all.
Sun Mo really wanted to shoot back. (Who knows what kind of stupid language you are speaking?) Ying Baiwu and Lu Zhiruo also had dumbfounded looks on their faces.
"Insignificant ants..."
The Wind King was complacent. Just when he was about to say that as long as they did what he said, he would impart this cultivation art to them, the girl whose chest was as flat as a little sunny egg on a pond in early summer suddenly spoke up.
"Tsk, do you want me to recite it for you?"
Li Ziqi ridiculed.
"I'm all ears!"
The Wind King assessed Li Ziqi. She should be around 13 or 14 years old, which meant that she had finished learning the Four Books and Five Classics. She could understand the ancient language?
Was this a joke?
Li Ziqi started to recite and didn't stop until she finished reciting.
"Wow, eldest martial sister is so impressive!"
Lu Zhiruo had a look of worship on her face. Her little hands were almost turning red from clapping.
"Impressive!"
Ying Baiwu was also envious. With the little sunny egg's intelligence, she most probably could crush many people.
The Wind King fell silent and didn't say anything for a long time.
"Why? Did I recite it wrongly? "
Li Ziqi asked.
"Have you learned the ancient language before?"
The Wind King asked.
"No, the ancient language has long been lost. What people know now is only bits and pieces."
Li Ziqi explained.
"Then you..."
The Wind King didn't understand.
"She only memorized the syllables you said."
Sun Mo explained.
"Ah?"
The Wind King could be considered an old monster who had lived for over a million years. But when he heard this, he was still stunned. Was this something a human could do?
The main point was that Li Ziqi's pronunciation wasn't bad at all!
It was like asking a Chinese to memorize a text. Some people with good memory would be able to memorize it, but if you changed it to any other foreign language, wouldn't it be a problem? Let alone memorizing it, it was already a problem if they could even recite it out.
The difficulty of the ancient language was many times higher compared to this. Hence, Li Ziqi was a genius.
"My eldest martial sister has a photographic memory. Her brain is very impressive!"
Lu Zhiruo boasted.
"This cultivation art you spoke of, is it real?"
Sun Mo was worried.
"Hmph, no matter what, I'm an ancient elemental king. Would I lie to ants like you?"
The Wind King ridiculed. Actually, it felt that there was no need to play any tricks because they wouldn't be able to understand it.
However, this girl might be the crux for him to leave this place.
"I admit that your recitation is completely correct, but do you understand the meaning behind it?"
The Wind King smiled. His meaning was very simple. (Without my explanation, even if you guys obtained this saint-tier cultivation art, it would be useless.)
"Do the spirit-winds outside listen to you?"
Sun Mo's question was out of the blue, causing the Wind King to be puzzled.
"Of course!"
The Wind King was very sure.
"Oi, can you stop being so arrogant? If you can control those spirit-winds, you would have long since lured the humans in and helped you break the seal. "
Li Ziqi directly pointed out the loophole in the Wind King's explanation.
"Let me guess. Letting you out is definitely a very troublesome matter. Not everyone can do it. Hence, you have to wait."
Sun Mo deduced. "Either you don't feel at ease with those who are too strong, or those who are too weak are of no use to you. Hence, you definitely have a weakness now."
"..."
The Wind King didn't dare to speak anymore. (I haven't even said a few words that touched on the main topic, yet you guys have already guessed so much. Do you want me to live?)
Sun Mo wasn't wrong. The Wind King could indeed create a huge commotion and lure those 7-star great teachers or even secondary saints over. What then?
After they broke the seal, they would definitely think of all ways to enslave him. However, the Wind King wouldn't feel at ease with those newbies. What if they couldn't accomplish anything and only knew how to spoil things?
"Wind King, since everyone wants to cooperate, it's best for us to talk openly and honestly!"
Sun Mo suggested.
"What do you want to talk about?"
The Wind King pretended to be calm.
"Since you don't feel at ease with those saints, why don't you personally nurture someone to help you break the seal?"
Sun Mo counter-asked.
"You mean to impart knowledge to you?"
The Wind King coldly laughed. (You want to cheat me of my cultivation art? No way!)
"It's not me. It's my student, Li Ziqi!"
Sun Mo wasn't interested in being an old pedant. His goal was to educate people. However, Li Ziqi liked it. As a bookworm who loved to read, she loved to delve into such strange knowledge the most.
