Since Lu Chong was willing to sacrifice his life for him, what else could he not do for the other party?
So what if they became enemies with a Conferred Kingdom?
So what if he was the enemy of Mingshi Tang?
Lu Chong, don't worry. No matter who the other party is, I'll avenge you and make him regret his actions!
"Alright …"
Knowing that it was impossible to dissuade the fellow before her, Mo Yu shook her head helplessly. "What should we do now?"
"To Xuanyuan Kingdom!"
Nodding his head, Zhang Xuan beckoned for the Steelfang Howling Firmament Beast to fly over and land before him.
Only by going there would he be able to find a true Supreme-Being realm cultivation technique, and only then would he be able to raise his strength quickly.
Otherwise, everything would be useless.
Just like what she had said, without sufficient strength, everything was useless, and they might even lose their lives.
"The capital of Xuanyuan Kingdom, Xuanyuan Royal City, is more than a hundred thousand kilometers away from here. Given the Steelfang Howling Firmament Beast's strength at Half-Zhizun realm, even if it were to fly at full speed, it would take at least seven to eight days!"
Mo Yu said.
As a Conferred Kingdom, Xuanyuan Kingdom occupied a much larger area. Seven to eight days was already considered a short journey.
"Seven, eight days?" Zhang Xuan was stunned.
It had been so long that it had almost caught up to the time he had spent in Tianwu Royal City.
Mo Yu nodded in agreement. "Indeed. This is already the limit of a Half-Zhizun. Unless one becomes a Zhizun, he would be able to reach there within three days or so. Otherwise, he would have no choice but to rush over like this!"
There was only a small cultivation stage difference between Half-Zhizun and Zhizun, but to aerial savage beasts, it was more than enough to raise their speed by twofold.
"How could a Supreme Martial Artist be so much faster? Since that's the case, I'll have it achieve a breakthrough then! "
"Let it break through?" Mo Yu smiled bitterly.
She had forgotten that the fellow before her wasn't just a formidable master teacher, he was a formidable beast tamer as well. This was especially so for the 'Beast Pummeling Taming Method' that he created. Even now, she was still unable to make heads or tails of it. She had no idea what it was that made a savage beast so obedient and even achieved a breakthrough.
Raising his head to take a look, he saw that the young man had already made his move. Arriving before the Steelfang Howling Firmament Beast, he sent a punch toward it.
Bang bang bang bang!
If it were any other beast tamer, even if they had signed a contract with the other party, they would surely be disliked by the other party.
This big guy, on the other hand, kept roaring excitedly when it saw him punch. It lay motionless on the ground, full of satisfaction.
He was probably the only one with such an expression after being beaten up …
Rumble!
After being beaten up for a while, as expected, the Steelfang Howling Firmament Beast let out a sharp roar and broke through its shackles. Its aura soared into the clouds.
Supreme-Being Realm!
At this level, the Howling Firmament Beast's body was even larger, and its strength was even sharper.
Climbing onto the back of the beast, they determined the direction and flew straight ahead.
…
Sitting cross-legged, Zhang Xuan recalled what had happened before.
Back then, the situation had been dire, and he had only wanted to kill Liang Qingming. Without thinking too much, the golden book had appeared and crushed him to death.
Could it be that … the Book of Heaven's Path had the ability to crush someone to death?
When he first came into possession of this library, he thought that when others toss out treasures, he would toss out books. Who would have thought that … it was actually true!
Recalling the might of books, Zhang Xuan couldn't help but sigh in admiration.
A Zhizun realm advanced stage cultivator was smashed into meat paste before he could even retaliate. Most probably, the might of this attack was many times stronger than that of a Transcendent Mortal expert.
In other words, if the other party were to make a move, even Su shi wouldn't be able to stop him!
Terrifying!
"What a pity … there's only one!"
He shook his head helplessly.
It was indeed a powerful artifact, but … there was only one of it, and it had already been used. Even if he wanted to find another one, there was no way he could find another one.
Only by receiving the gratitude of his students would he be able to condense it. It seemed that he would have to accept more students in the future and create a few more of them.
He could make the knowledge in the Library of Heaven's Path his own, raise his Soul Depth by 5.0, and even smash his enemies to death...
Although the golden book had only comprehended three uses, each one was more terrifying than the last.
In the future, when he had more of these things, he wouldn't need to bring any treasures with him. If anyone dared to cause trouble, he could just throw a book at them. No matter how strong they were, they wouldn't be able to withstand it!
"It can smash people to death, but there seems to be a time limit … about ten seconds!"
He recalled the battle once more.
Seeing that Lu Chong was killed, Zhang Xuan didn't think too much about it. Now that he was free, he began to analyze the situation and found some patterns.
As long as one's will was strong enough, the golden book would be able to fly out and kill someone.
However, once it left his body, it would only last ten breaths in the outside world before disappearing.
If not for this limitation, how could Ding Mu and the others have escaped?
Otherwise, even a Transcendent Mortal would have died under the might of the golden book, needless to say, those two fellows.
"After the Soul Tempering of a Mentor's Calligraphy, my Soul Depth has improved significantly!"
Looking at Kong Shi's handwriting allowed him to enter the unique state of the Soul Tempering of a Mentor's Calligraphy.
If not for this, with the Heaven's Path Movement Art, even a Zhizun realm expert wouldn't be able to kill him so easily!
"My Soul Depth has reached 12.1. This is more than sufficient for me to take the 4-star master teacher examination!"
Even though the duration of the Soul Tempering of a Mentor's Calligraphy was short, it was still Kong Shi's handwriting. Its effects were immense, allowing his Soul Depth to rise by 1.0.
Every 3.0 represented a grade. If that was the case, his Soul Depth was already sufficient for him to take the 4-star master teacher examination.
"My Soul Depth has increased, and my Eye of Insight has improved as well! In the past, I could only view those of the same cultivation realm or lower than me. But now, even if I encounter a Half-Zhizun, I can easily see through their flaws! "
Along with his Soul Depth reaching 12.1, which was comparable to a 4-star master teacher, his Eye of Insight had evolved as well.
With his current Zongshi realm pinnacle cultivation, he wouldn't have been able to see through a Half-Zhizun in the past.
But now, even if a Half-Zhizun expert were to appear before him, he would be able to see through his Soul Depth. There was no need for him to rely on the Library of Heaven's Path anymore.
Even though the Library of Heaven's Path was formidable, it had many limitations.
For example, the Book of Heaven's Path could only be displayed when one executed a battle technique or fainted. On the other hand, the Eye of Insight was different. As long as one expended a certain amount of Soul Depth, it could be used easily.
"Not only so, the prowess of my Impartation of Heaven's Will has increased significantly as well!"
At this moment, he had comprehended two unique abilities unique to master teachers.
Eye of Insight and Impartation of Heaven's Will.
As long as he expended his Soul Depth, he would be able to win the trust of others swiftly. In fact, he would even be able to control the zhenqi in his body and drive it along with his words.
In the past, he could only influence cultivators whose cultivation was much lower than his. But now, even a Zongshi realm pinnacle cultivator of the same cultivation realm as him would be influenced by his words.
In any case, the Soul Tempering of a Mentor's Calligraphy was extremely beneficial to him as a master teacher. As for other aspects, there weren't many changes.
"All of you, execute a set of punches for me to see!"
After sorting out his progress, Zhang Xuan turned to Zhao Ya and the others.
It had been a long time since he last guided them. Even though their cultivation had improved swiftly, it was clear that they were no longer able to catch up to him.
"Yes!"
Everyone executed their battle techniques, and Zhang Xuan guided them one by one.
Three days passed in the blink of an eye. Under Zhang Xuan's guidance and cultivation, the group's cultivation rose significantly. Wang Ying, Zheng Yang, and the others reached Pixue realm, and even the weakest among them, Yuan Tao, managed to open an acupoint.
Zhao Ya even managed to reach Zongshi realm advanced stage through the awakening of her unique constitution.
With her Pure Yin Body and Heaven's Path Sword Art, the current her was on par with a Zongshi realm pinnacle cultivator.
Mo Yu had also improved significantly after receiving Zhang Xuan's guidance.
"Aren't we heading to Xuanyuan Royal City?"
After flying for a while, just as they were about to reach the capital, Zhang Xuan suddenly had the Howling Firmament Beast change its direction, heading toward a mountain range not too far away.
"Let's find a place to raise our cultivation!"
Standing by the window, Zhang Xuan said calmly.
"Raise our cultivation?" Mo Yu blinked her eyes.
Seeing how nonchalant Zhang Xuan was, she thought that he would cultivate diligently for the next three days to at least reach Half-Zhizun realm. Yet... other than guiding the others and taking care of Lu Chong, he didn't cultivate at all.
Now that they were about to reach the capital, he actually wanted to raise his cultivation...
Could it be that there was a special location for this?
"The Beast Hall!" Zhang Xuan said.
After reading through the books on Tianwu Kingdom, even though he didn't know much about the various powers in Xuanyuan Kingdom, he was still able to find the geographical location and the branches of the occupations.
Just like before, Xuanyuan Kingdom's Beast Hall wasn't located in the capital. Instead, it was located in the depths of a mountain range several dozen kilometers away from the capital.
"Beast Hall? Raise our cultivation there? "
Hearing the location, Mo Yu was even more confused.
She had heard of savage beasts going to the Beast Hall to raise their cultivation, but she had never heard of humans doing so as well!
Could it be that his cultivation technique required the assistance of savage beasts?
...
Just as Zhang Xuan and the others were heading toward the Beast Hall, in the vast town of Xuanyuan Kingdom's Beast Hall, three figures leaped down from the back of a beast.
Two of them were familiar faces to Zhang Xuan, Hall Master Feng and Beast Tamer Wang of Xuanluo Mountain Range Beast Hall.
Standing in front of them was a young man in his thirties. With his chest puffed out, he had an arrogant look on his face.
"Beast Tamer Luo, this is Xuanyuan Kingdom's Beast Hall. We'll be participating in the Beast Taming Competition here!"
Hall Master Feng said.
"Un, I know! Don't worry, it's just a championship. I'll surely bring it to you! "The young Beast Tamer Luo waved his hands casually.
"Ah..."
Hearing the arrogant words of the other party, Hall Master Feng and Beast Tamer Wang glanced at one another and smiled bitterly.
This Beast Tamer Luo was one of the more talented beast tamers in the recent examination, but he wasn't the most talented.
If not for the sudden rescheduling of the competition, which was supposed to be held half a year later, to two months later, they wouldn't have been able to find the talented Zhang Xuan.
The Steelfang Howling Firmament Beast of Xuanluo Mountain Range Beast Hall had been taken away by that fellow, so they had no choice but to ride on a Zongshi realm savage beast. Due to the slow speed, it took them more than a month to arrive.
(A month ago, Zhang Xuan was still searching for the Poison Temple. He didn't even go to Tianwu Royal City, so naturally, they weren't able to find it.)
"Why? You don't believe me? "
"Hmph, what Zhang Xuan are you talking about! He's a 2-star beast tamer, and so am I. He passed the examination on his first try, and so am I. In fact, I did even better than him! Why do you sound so confident when talking about him, but not me? "
Seeing the expressions on the duo's faces, Beast Tamer Luo flung his hands in displeasure.
