"Teacher, you... can you really allow me to exact my vengeance within ten days?"
In the private tutor, Lu Chong kneeled before Zhang Xuan. Even now, he still couldn't believe what he had just heard.
He had never told anyone about his vengeance, and he didn't show it on his face either. In order to prevent it from leaking out, he pretended to be mute, confident that he didn't leave any flaws behind.
Yet, this Liu laoshi was able to deduce that he had a vengeance just by hearing about his past deeds and his current state of cultivation. This... was way too fearsome!
More importantly... the other party had promised him that he would exact his vengeance within ten days!
His enemy was a Tongxuan realm expert. If it was that simple, he wouldn't have spent the past two years cultivating day and night!
"Since that's the case, I naturally have a way. However... my method is extremely painful. Whether you can withstand it or not will depend on yourself!" Zhang Xuan looked at the youngster before him.
He was extremely satisfied with this student of his.
In order to raise his cultivation, he had knelt before the door for seven days and seven nights. Fearing that news would leak, he had feigned mute for two whole years. Regardless of which, it was clear that he possessed a strong will and mental fortitude.
Even though he didn't possess much talent, as long as he was groomed well, his cultivation would surely soar. It was only a matter of time before he surpassed Mu Xueqing.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have wasted so much effort in persuading him.
The reason why he accepted students was based on their temperament and will. As for talent, with him around, it didn't mean much at all.
"As long as I can exact my vengeance, I can endure any pain!" Clenching his fists tightly, Lu Chong said with determination in his eyes.
"Very well!"
Placing his hands behind his back, Zhang Xuan said with a deep gaze, "Among the unique occupations, there is one that no one is willing to come into contact with or mention. It is called poison master. May I know if you have heard of it?"
"I have!" Lu Chong nodded.
Back then, he had also wanted to learn the occupation of poison master, but he couldn't find a way.
"Teacher, could it be that you..."
Taken aback, Lu Chong looked at Zhang Xuan doubtfully.
Weren't poison masters ostracized by the other occupations and rarely appeared in public? Could it be that this teacher possessed such an occupation?
Or did he want him to learn it?
"I'm not a poison master, and I won't make you learn it!"
As if seeing through his thoughts, Zhang Xuan said indifferently, "I have a method that can allow your strength to increase rapidly. However, it requires the help of poison. It will not be harmful to your future cultivation, but you will have to endure extreme pain. If you can't endure it, you will die."
Naturally, he was referring to the method to cultivate the Poison Body that he saw in the Poison Temple.
Upon mastering the Poison Body, not only would one be able to consume lethal poison without suffering any harm, but one's strength, spirit, and agility would also be greatly enhanced, allowing one to erupt with greater strength in a short period of time.
Other than using the Heaven's Path Divine Art, there was only one way for Zhang Xuan to raise his strength swiftly.
Ordinary poison masters would have their lifespan affected if they were to poison themselves. Just like Gu Mu back then, they would suffer from various kinds of internal injuries.
However, Zhang Xuan's set had already been sorted out by the Library of Heaven's Path. However, without the support of the Heaven's Path zhenqi, it wouldn't be easy for Zhang Xuan to cultivate the Heaven's Path Divine Art.
Since Lu Chong was so determined, he should give it a try. Perhaps, he might be able to achieve some results.
"No matter how painful it is, as long as I can take revenge, I'm willing!"
Determination gleamed in Lu Chong's eyes.
There was only a single chance.
While he was cultivating, the other party was cultivating as well. Given his talent, which had only risen by a single rank within two years, it would be difficult for him to surpass the other party even if he were to spend eight to ten years of hard work.
Since this Liu laoshi said that he would be able to exact vengeance within ten days, he would definitely be able to do so.
After seeing how the other party raised the cultivation of his entire class within a short period of time, no matter how foolish he was, it was clear that the other party was a truly capable teacher.
Seeing the determination in Lu Chong's eyes, Zhang Xuan nodded his head in satisfaction. With a deep and cold voice, he said, "The cultivation technique that I have imparted to you is not to be leaked to anyone else. Otherwise, even without me making a move, your zhenqi will rebound on you, and you will die a tragic death!"
"Yes!"
Lu Chong nodded his head. Raising a single hand, he said, "I, Lu Chong, swear that if the cultivation technique and secret manuals that Liu laoshi has imparted to me are leaked, my soul shall dissipate, and I shall be consigned to eternal damnation!"
"Un!"
Zhang Xuan didn't say a word. With a tap of his finger, a surge of zhenqi dived into the other party's acupoint and concealed itself.
The cultivation technique that he had imparted to Lu Chong was simply too fearsome. If it were to be leaked, it would definitely cause a huge calamity. He didn't want to invite trouble upon himself. Even though the other party had made a vow, the other party still trusted him more.
After studying and studying poison, his Heaven's Path zhenqi was able to transform into poison and medicine with a single thought.
If the other party were to keep his mouth shut, this surge of zhenqi would be able to clear the obstruction in his meridians and raise his cultivation. On the other hand, if he were to use his strength to commit crimes, he would be able to poison the other party to death.
"The cultivation of the Poison Body requires the complementation of poison, and I don't have any of these on me at the moment! I will impart the cultivation technique to you tomorrow. However, I can impart another cultivation technique to you today to strengthen your physical constitution. Only by strengthening your body will you be able to withstand the assault of the lethal poison and survive! "
After finishing his preparations, Zhang Xuan looked at Lu Chong and said, "I will only say it once. You will be able to comprehend as much as you can. Don't disappoint me!"
"I won't disappoint teacher!" Lu Chong nodded his head.
"Very well, this is a physical body cultivation technique..."
Zhang Xuan said.
What he was referring to was the Heaven's Path Golden Body. Of course, it was similar to the one he imparted to Zhao Ya and the others, but it was a simplified version.
Cultivating the Poison Body required one to experience lethal poison, and if one's physical constitution wasn't strong enough, one might not be able to withstand it.
Even though this Heaven's Path Golden Body was inferior to the one he was cultivating, it was still a product of the Library of Heaven's Path. As long as one cultivated it diligently, it wouldn't be a problem for one's strength to soar swiftly.
"... Only through this will it be a complete body!"
Soon, Zhang Xuan finished reciting the cultivation technique.
"Teacher, thank you for your generosity!"
After hearing the cultivation technique, Lu Chong's body trembled, and his face flushed in agitation.
In the two years since he came to Tianwu Academy, he had reached Dingli realm primary stage. He had seen many cultivation techniques, and he knew some physical body cultivation techniques as well.
Compared to what Liu laoshi had imparted to him, these cultivation techniques couldn't even be considered as trash.
A cultivation technique of this level must at least be at Phantom pinnacle or above!
If he were to take it out for an auction, it would surely fetch an astronomical price. Even the Tianwu royal family would go into a frenzy over it...
Yet, his teacher imparted such a valuable cultivation technique to him so casually... There was no way he could repay this favor.
"Start cultivating!"
Ignoring Lu Chong's gratitude, Zhang Xuan waved his hands casually.
"Yes!"
Knowing that his teacher didn't like to waste his breath, Lu Chong sat down cross-legged and began to cultivate.
The zhenqi of the Heaven's Path Golden Body flowed along the correct path. After cultivating for a moment, Lu Chong's entire body felt numb, and a wave of comfort washed over him. In fact, even the internal injuries on his body were healed in an instant.
"Incredible!"
After an unknown period of time, the crackling of firecrackers echoed throughout his body, and his aura surged.
Hu!
Lu Chong opened his eyes.
At this moment, he felt an inexhaustible energy flowing through his body.
"Un, not bad. To be able to reach Minor Accomplishment in just two hours, your foundation isn't bad!"
Zhang Xuan nodded his head in satisfaction.
In order to exact vengeance, the other party was willing to go through all kinds of hardships, so he must have tempered his body. Otherwise, it would have been impossible for him to reach Minor Accomplishment in the simplified Heaven's Path Golden Body within two hours.
"You can leave now. The other students are probably waiting anxiously for you!"
Seeing that Lu Chong was done cultivating, Zhang Xuan pushed open the door and walked out of the room.
It had been more than two hours since the two of them entered, and the students waiting outside were probably anxious by now.
...
In the classroom.
"Liu laoshi said that... Lu Chong was able to defeat a Tongxuan realm expert within ten days. Is that... possible?"
Even now, a student couldn't believe what he had heard.
"I don't know either. However, Liu laoshi's casual guidance was able to help us achieve breakthroughs. His eye of discernment isn't beneath that of a master teacher!"
"I've listened to master teacher's lessons, and they are just slightly more profound than our previous teacher. Compared to Liu laoshi, I think that... they are still lacking!"
"That's right … He's so incredible. Is he really just an ordinary teacher?"
Discussions broke out.
Initially, they harbored hostility toward this teacher. However, as soon as he spoke, they knew that they had met a good teacher, and they immediately turned their backs on him.
"Tongxuan realm cultivators possess a strength of over a hundred ding, and they are able to split apart a mountain with a single punch. Lu Chong is only at Dingli realm primary stage at the moment, the disparity is simply too great... How is it possible for him to achieve that in ten days?"
Mu Xueqing shook her head.
She was currently at Pixue realm, and she knew how difficult it was to raise one's strength. It would already be an incredible feat for Lu Chong to advance from Dingli realm primary stage to Tongxuan realm intermediate stage in ten days. To challenge a Tongxuan realm expert by two realms...
That sounded no different from bragging.
"Indeed..." Meng Tao nodded in agreement.
Back then, he had spent a great deal of effort to advance from Dingli realm primary stage to Tongxuan realm advanced stage, and it took him nearly a year to do so. To raise his strength within such a short period of time...
Jiya!
Just as Mu Xueqing was deep in thought, the door opened, and Liu laoshi and Lu Chong walked out.
At this moment, Lu Chong's body was brimming with energy, and his eyes were sharp as lightning. The strength that burst forth from his body was as though a tsunami, exerting immense pressure on others.
"Dingli realm... pinnacle?"
Sensing this aura, Mu Xueqing and Meng Tao were dumbfounded. Their eyes nearly popped out of their sockets.
How long had it been since he entered with Liu laoshi?
To advance from Dingli realm primary stage to pinnacle in just two hours...
The duo felt the urge to spurt blood.
Their rate of cultivation was as slow as a snail's, and it would take several months for them to advance. On the other hand, Liu laoshi brought Lu Chong in for a short while, and he actually advanced several small realms...
Did it have to be so exaggerated?
What they didn't know was that Lu Chong's simplified Heaven's Path Golden Body had already surpassed an ordinary Dingli realm pinnacle cultivator in terms of strength!
Coupled with his zhenqi, he possessed a strength of five ding!
Even an ordinary Dingli realm pinnacle cultivator only possessed a strength of four ding.
"This... This is too incredible... Senior, I think you should take the initiative to admit your mistake. Where else can you find such a good teacher..."
Suppressing the shock in his heart, Meng Tao sent a telepathic message to Mu Xueqing.
Halfway through his words, he noticed that there was no response. Thinking that Mu Xueqing was too prideful and unwilling to admit her mistake, he hurriedly turned around and nearly fainted on the spot.
The haughty Little Demoness Mu Xueqing, who would never admit her mistake, was kneeling before Liu laoshi with an earnest look on her face.
"Teacher, I was wrong... Please forgive me. In the future, I will do whatever you ask me to do. I won't dare to disobey you! Even if that genius master teacher, Zhang Xuan, were to come, I would treat him as though he was thin air! "
"..." Zhang Xuan.
