Chapter 403: The Unfathomable Master Yang (Part 2)

The person before him might be a master teacher above six stars, and his student Zhang Xuan had repeatedly broken the guild's records. If he truly wanted fame, he didn't need any proof; just saying he was his student would be enough to make countless geniuses envious and jealous.

"Master Yang, forgive me. I spoke out of turn!"

Master Su quickly apologized.

"Enough."

Zhang Xuan waved his hand. "If this is all, you can go back. Whether Zhang Xuan is willing to participate is entirely up to him; I won't interfere. I am only responsible for guiding and instructing, not for being a nanny who manages everything."

"We were rash..."

Hearing the dismissal in his words, Master Su and Master Ling quickly stood up. Hesitating for a moment, they were about to take their leave when the former gritted his teeth. "Since we are fortunate to meet Master Yang today, I have some cultivation doubts I wish to ask, hoping for your guidance."

This was a super master teacher above six stars, someone one might not meet even once in a lifetime. Having encountered him, not asking some questions would surely lead to regret.

"What doubts?"

Zhang Xuan's fists tightened, but his face showed indifference.

Pretending to be a high-level master teacher, this was the most feared situation. However, once the other party spoke, he had to answer. Being criticized was a minor issue; being questioned was the real problem.

Seeing that he did not refuse, Master Su breathed a sigh of relief, his eyes brightening as he quickly spoke. "The technique I cultivate is the Lesser Pure Yang Art. Every time I circulate it to the seventh turn, I feel as if my body is tearing apart and cannot continue. I don't know the reason."

"Lesser Pure Yang Art?" Zhang Xuan's vision went dark.

Although he had integrated countless knowledge from the Tianwu Kingdom, he had never heard of this technique's name, let alone the so-called sixth or seventh turn.

"Cultivate it and let me see."

Frustrated inside, but having experienced such situations many times, Zhang Xuan was not flustered. He slowly raised his teacup, lifted his eyelids, and maintained a calm and elegant demeanor.

"Yes!" Master Su nodded.

For a master teacher to give guidance, he must first observe the cultivation to prescribe the right remedy.

With a movement, he came to the center of the hall, sat cross-legged, and circled his hands. Intense spiritual energy immediately converged.

Sizzle sizzle!

The air was drawn away so quickly that it produced violent sonic booms.

"Impressive..."

Seeing the speed at which he absorbed spiritual energy, Zhang Xuan's eyebrows jumped.

As expected of a four-star master teacher, truly extraordinary.

"Flaw!"

With the other's cultivation as a basis, a book appeared in the library with a thought.

He casually opened it and looked down.

"Su Fan, early four-star master teacher, Mortal Transcendence cultivator, elder of the Ten Thousand Nations Alliance Master Teacher Hall. Cultivation technique: Lesser Pure Yang Art. Flaw: ..."

It was densely packed with detailed content.

Having integrated all the knowledge in the library into his mind, he now knew that above the nine levels of martial artist was [Mortal Transcendence].

The nine levels of martial artist were about training the mortal body to its limit, then transcending the mortal realm to enter the spiritual and sacred.

The Mortal Transcendence realm, like the martial artist realm, also had nine levels. The specific levels were not detailed in books of Tianwu Kingdom's level.

However, being a Mortal Transcendence cultivator indicated that the person before him had already surpassed the Sovereign category, reaching a very high level in body, spirit, and life essence.

It was like the difference between ghost weapons and spirit weapons.

Not to be mentioned in the same breath.

After reading the flaws recorded in the book, Zhang Xuan's face showed a strange expression again.

...

As soon as Master Su began cultivating, Master Ling focused his gaze on Master Yang.

He also knew about his old friend's problem. They had consulted countless materials and even inquired through the communication wall to higher-level guilds, but no one could answer.

Since he asked, he wanted to see how the other would observe and guide.

A super genius who could guide someone like Zhang Xuan, suspected to be a super master teacher above six stars, observing on-site and giving guidance would be a great learning opportunity, beneficial for his own advancement.

He focused his attention and studied seriously.

However, after watching for a while, his brows furrowed into a knot, and a series of questions arose in his mind.

For a master teacher to give guidance, having the other cultivate techniques or martial skills and then studying them carefully was normal. But... this person only sat in place, glanced once, then closed his eyes and remained motionless. What was he doing?

Didn't he have the Eye of Insight?

Shouldn't he use this special ability to observe the problems and cruxes in cultivation?

Why didn't he use it?

Moreover, even if he used the Eye of Insight, problems with techniques, unlike martial skills, should require more observation and even inquiry about the content before making a judgment.

Not asking or looking, closing his eyes as if asleep... What method was this?

Master Ling was baffled.

A master teacher giving guidance, like a physician, needed careful observation to find flaws and prescribe the right remedy.

As a four-star master teacher, he knew tens of thousands of observation methods, but none involved just glancing and then closing eyes in a daze...

"Could it be... he can't solve it either?"

A thought emerged.

Having the Eye of Insight, he didn't doubt that the other was a fake expert, but he worried for his friend, fearing this would be another fruitless attempt.

"Stop cultivating!"

Just as he was puzzled, he saw Master Yang open his eyes again, his face calm like still water, without joy or sorrow.

"Yes!"

Master Su stopped and looked at him expectantly.

"Master Yang... have you found a solution?" Master Ling was startled.

He glanced, then closed his eyes, did nothing... Could he have seen the crux and found a solution?

"Solution?"

Zhang Xuan shook his head. "There is no problem with his cultivation, and the Lesser Pure Yang Art suits his physique."

"Then..."

Both were stunned.

If there was no problem with cultivation and the technique was suitable, why couldn't he continue after the seventh turn?

"You want to break through to the eighth turn?"

Instead of answering, Zhang Xuan looked at him.

"Yes! The seventh turn has trapped me for over five years. I can't break through and can't find the path..."

Master Su quickly nodded.

The Lesser Pure Yang Art he cultivated was a spirit-level technique. He had been cultivating it for over fifty years, through countless days and nights. He had thought he could push through to the ninth turn and reach great perfection, thereby impacting the five-star master teacher rank...

But unexpectedly, he was stuck at the seventh turn with no way forward.

For five consecutive years, he had made no progress. He had consulted countless master teachers, and even several elders of the guild had observed together, but no conclusion was reached.

"If you want to break through to the eighth turn, follow my instructions without any resistance or hesitation."

Zhang Xuan walked over slowly, hands behind his back.

"Alright!" Master Su gritted his teeth.

This was a strong teacher who had taught a Heaven-acknowledged master teacher. Since he spoke, this was definitely the best opportunity for him.

"Good. Now begin cultivating. When you reach the seventh turn, I will find a way to help you break through. But before that, you need to close your eyes, ignore everything, and focus on circulating the technique."

Zhang Xuan waved his hand.

"Yes!"

Taking a deep breath, Master Su sat cross-legged and was about to cultivate.

"Don't sit; stand up and assume a horse stance."

Zhang Xuan continued instructing.

"Cultivate in a horse stance?"

Startled, but without hesitating long, Master Su nodded.

At his level of cultivation, he could multitask. Not to mention a horse stance, he could even cultivate while practicing boxing.

"Begin!"

Knowing the requirements, he took a deep breath and closed his eyes.

Gurgle gurgle!

Spiritual energy in the air was again drawn into his body, like water droplets added to boiling oil, producing a series of sounds.

The Lesser Pure Yang Art was known for its strong yang energy and vigorous power. At the same level, those who used this technique were exceptionally powerful.

Because of this, Master Su and Master Ling were both early four-star, but the former held a higher status.

Seeing that he started immediately and entered a state of self-forgetfulness in cultivation, Zhang Xuan nodded in satisfaction. He walked around him with his hands behind his back and looked at Master Ling nearby.

"Do you want to help him?"

Master Ling was taken aback. "How?"

Weren't you supposed to give guidance? Why involve me?

"Just follow my instructions."

Zhang Xuan said.

"Alright!" Master Ling agreed.

The other had glanced and then closed his eyes, which already puzzled him. Now asking for his help sparked curiosity.

He also wanted to see what method would be used to help the other break through to the eighth turn and how he would be needed.

"Wait for now."

Seeing his agreement, Zhang Xuan said no more and stood still without any expression.

Gurgle gurgle!

As Master Su cultivated, his aura gradually rose, like a dragon or tiger, emitting a terrifying presence.

"Fourth turn, fifth turn... sixth turn!"

Feeling the aura from the other, Master Ling's expression grew more serious.

The two were very familiar, and he knew the crux of the Lesser Pure Yang Art. He had seen him cultivate before, so he knew exactly how many cycles the technique had gone through in the other's body.

Crack!

After the sixth turn, as the seventh turn began, Master Su's bones immediately emitted a creaking sound, as if something was tearing. Then his muscles split open, and blood spurted out.

In the blink of an eye, the originally refined Master Su turned into a demon crawling out of hell.

"Master Yang, Master Su... might not be able to hold on much longer..."

Seeing his old friend in this state, Master Ling's expression changed, full of anxiety.

Familiar with the other, he knew this was the limit of endurance. Continuing further, not only would breakthrough fail, but he could easily be severely injured.

Because his body couldn't withstand it, his old friend's strength had not improved in five years. That was why he had been inquiring everywhere and came immediately upon hearing of Master Yang's prowess.

"Mm, we can begin. Come closer."

Nodding, Zhang Xuan beckoned.

"Yes!"

Master Ling quickly approached.

"Now you just need to do this..."

Seeing him come close, Zhang Xuan transmitted his voice, detailing his secret method.

"This... this..."

After hearing his method, Master Ling's mouth twitched, his eyes wide, his whole body stiff, on the verge of tears.

What the hell kind of method is this? Are you trying to kill him?

"This... can it really work?"
