No Way Anyone Believes That My Master Is A Mortal? - Chapter 10

Chapter 10: Master, I Have Understood Once Again

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

At the Daoless Sect…

Chu Yuan met up with Ye Luo and told him that he was going down the mountain to settle some matters before preparing to leave.

After all, time did not wait for him.

After discovering that his strength was still very weak, Chu Yuan had the thought of taking in even more “trash” disciples.

Grooming a useless disciple was equivalent to an increase of a small realm for himself.

If he managed to groom three, he would gain an increase of a major realm in cultivation!

It would be soon before he managed to achieve it!

Soon, he would be invincible!

Everything was under his control!

At the mountain gate…

The breeze blew gently, and the clouds lingered.

Ye Luo accompanied Chu Yuan to the mountain gate, and the two of them stood there.

Chu Yuan looked at the clouds outside the mountain gate and said nothing. His white clothes fluttered in the wind. He looked like a carefree immortal with his hands behind his back.

Ye Luo stood at the side and hesitated for a moment before he said, “Master, I’ve already comprehended a trace of the Dao that Master left behind and integrated it into my sword moves. Please guide me!”

He has managed to comprehend it?

What have you comprehended? Please don’t tell me that you’ve comprehended hypochondria while sitting there every day?

Chu Yuan suddenly had a thought.

If my disciple is suffering from hypochondria, is it still considered as having groomed a useless disciple?

Will I still be able to obtain my cultivation reward?

I suppose so, right?

Forget it then. It’s good for him to have hypochondria as well. Otherwise, he might get too frustrated over not being able to comprehend anything despite sitting there alone every day.

Chu Yuan immediately felt relieved with that thought. He smiled faintly and said, “There’s no need. I know what you’ve comprehended. What you’ve comprehended now is only the tip of an iceberg.

“You haven’t comprehended the true essence yet. You’ll only truly understand my intentions if you continue looking at the sky. Alright, I’ll take my leave first. Try to comprehend it well, and don’t slack off!”

After saying that, a cloud formed under his feet, and he tore through the sky in a carefree manner.

However, he sighed in his heart.

I have only been hoodwinking my dear disciple for such a short period. Yet, he is already suffering from hypochondria.

Sigh…

But hypochondria is good too. This way, the situation will be more stable. This disciple of mine is definitely a goner already. I just need to wait for the review to get my cultivation reward.

A smile appeared on Chu Yuan’s face upon thinking that, and he sped down the mountain.

As for Ye Luo, he had fallen into deep thought after hearing Chu Yuan’s words.

He naturally did not doubt his Master’s words.

Thus, he had been pondering his Master’s words the entire time.

What he had comprehended was only the tip of an iceberg…

If it was according to the scene he had witnessed in the past—the one with the thousands of chains and Dao insights in the sky—what he had comprehended was indeed only the tip of an iceberg.

Perhaps not even the tip of an iceberg.

However, what’s the true essence that Master mentioned?

Look at the sky?

Ye Luo looked up. The sky was bright, and the sun was scorching.

The sunlight was blinding…

Other than that, he did not discover anything else.

However, it was impossible for his Master to lie to him. He had already comprehended the Dao and learned of the secrets of his body from the Hall of Impartation.

Was anyone still thinking that his Master was lying to him?

No way, no way…

Ye Luo’s heart was filled with confusion as he returned to the main hall’s square and sat down cross-legged. He endured the glaring sun and continued to look at the sky.

His Master would not lie to him.

Look at the sky more…

He wanted to understand his Master’s intentions!

I can’t let Master down!

Ye Luo calmed down and looked at the sky.

Two hours passed…

Unfortunately, he found nothing.

Nonetheless, he was not impatient. His comprehension of the Dao these days and the nourishment of the golden characters had changed his mental state.

Four hours passed…

Still no clue.

Six hours later…

The sky was already dark.

Ye Luo was still staring at the sky with his eyes wide open.

At that moment, his mind suddenly shook as a wave of clarity washed over him.

He couldn’t help but close his eyes.

When he opened his eyes again, the sky had changed drastically. All the clouds and stars in the sky had disappeared. There was only the pitch-black sky.

Ye Luo looked at the sky. It was as if he was facing the entire world.

He felt insignificant and minuscule.

Was this Master’s intention? The sky is huge, unimaginably huge…

He had only witnessed the tip of the iceberg, yet he was so pleased with himself that he wanted to showcase his abilities in front of his Master.

That’s why Master reminded me…

Master, I have understood!

Ye Luo understood.

At the same time, golden characters flickered in his heart, and a thought appeared.

The strength of a man is always inferior to the power of the heavens. Why not borrow the power of the heavens to enable myself to become stronger?

Ye Luo drew his sword and closed his eyes.

In the next moment, he swung his sword.

Buzz…

There was no sharpness to speak of in this strike. It landed lightly.

However, endless sword cries rang out, and sword winds howled.

Fortunately, there was no one there.

If someone were to witness this scene, they would be scared to death because this slash… was targeted not at a person but at one’s heart!

Using a sword to cut off one’s Dao Heart!

Clang!

Ye Luo’s face turned pale as he fell to the ground. The sword clattered to the ground while a satisfied smile appeared on his face.

He understood what his Master meant. He had also figured out a new sword move.

His Master would definitely be delighted to know that he had understood it so quickly.

Ye Luo then closed his eyes and rested.

The next morning…

Ye Luo woke up from hunger. He put away his sword, picked up the bag beside him, and realized that there were no more rations left.

He could not help but frown as there was no food in the sect—this was something that he had known.

Now that his Master had left, what could he eat?

Ye Luo was puzzled.

Did Master forget that I still have to eat?

Just as Ye Luo thought of this, he rejected the idea immediately.

“Master definitely can’t have forgotten to prepare food for me. Master definitely didn’t forget. Maybe Master did this on purpose. He wants me to handle my meals by myself. There should be some animals at the foot of the mountain. Let’s go down and take a look,” Ye Luo muttered to himself.

It just so happened that he did not know how strong the sword move he had just comprehended was. It would be good to go down the mountain and find some animals to test it out.

However, based on his experience… it was likely that Qi Refining experts wouldn’t be able to block his sword strike. As for Foundation Establishment cultivators, they might be able to withstand it.

However, he did not know the exact details.

Even so, it was enough. He had yet to embark on the path of cultivation, but he had already surpassed the Qi Refinement stage!

One had to know that he had only entered the sect for less than two months. Yet, he had already reached such a stage. If he could cultivate in the future, how terrifying would that be?

The most important thing was that he still had several months to comprehend the Dao. When the time came, what kind of things would he comprehend?

Everything may be unknown, but everything was possible under his Master’s guidance.

In any case, Ye Luo was extremely satisfied with his current combat strength. Although he was a mortal, he was superior to Qi Refining cultivators. He, Ye Luo, would definitely not be an embarrassment to the sect!
