22 I Like Being Hit! (1/2)

”My horse..” Old Mo was about to cry on the spot. His heart was bleeding as of the moment. One of the horses he obtained with great price actually walk its way out like it didn't care at all! He wanted to stop it since he had the rights to do so. However, he did not have the strength to do so! If the horse decided to suppress him, all he could do was lie down or rely on his young master!

Oblivious to this, Jin Rou asked again, ”Old Mo, do you have the second book of that? Lend it to me. I need to study it!” He said it earnestly. He really wanted to get revenge for this humiliation!

Old Mo did not know whether to laugh or cry.

Young master, didn't you see that I am actually bleeding right now because I lost just a precious horse? Please..

But Old Mo still answered, ”I only have that book, young master. It was just given to me by someone.”

”Oh?” Jin Rou's eyes lit up. ”Then who gave this to you? Maybe he still has another edition of this book!”

”I don't think so.” Old Mo's lips twitched, ”That book was only one with no editions or whatever. Young master, that book proved no worth in our world.”

”But I found it interesting!” Jin Rou defended. ”That book tells us how to be arrogant and suppress enemies!”

”That's only applicable for someone we are stronger than. If we are to encounter cultivators who were stronger than us, arrogance could not suppress them. In fact, they may be annoyed and attack and kill us. Unless confident enough that we are the strongest.” Old Mo reasoned out while sweat beads running down his face.

Old Mo, that's precisely the reason Jin Rou could act arrogant and felt no threat! You actually accompanying the strongest cultivator the world could offer!

”So getting a second version of the book might spell impossible.” Jin Rou felt disappointed with this fact. He really wanted to deepen his knowledge about arrogance so that he would not lose to anyone again. He then said, ”So if you got the power to back yourself up, you can be arrogant?”

”That would be the case.” Old Mo answered.

”Then I will make you stronger!” Jin Rou said in an active tone, ”Prepare yourself in three days. Accumulate energy essence as much as you can.”

”Yes?” Old Mo did not know what to say and was dumbfounded.

Young master will make me stronger?

Old Mo did not dare to believe it! However, he was planning on earnestly accumulating the essence.

Energy essence is the most important factor for cultivating. In order to break through, one needed to accumulate enough energy essence. The higher the cultivating, the higher the required energy essence. Of course, this was not all. One needed to comprehend the energy essence and become one with it! And this could only possibly be done by meditating, concentrating one's mind to understand nature.

Accumulating energy essence could be done by moving and meditating. Meditating accumulates energy essence faster than moving. In three days, Old Mo could not meditate but knew something to fasten the speed of accumulation by moving! It would probably increase his essence stored in his dantian by four percent!

Old Mo's current cultivation was the third stage of the Nascent Realm. He breakthrough last ten years ago and did not mind cultivating again and thus, he was stuck at the 80% bottleneck and could not proceed through. However, since he gained knowledge regarding culinary from his young master, he was confident that he would be able to break this bottleneck also! The culinary knowledge actually contains tips to break the bottleneck and proceed to cultivate again! And he was feeling that this was a hundred percent effective!

The two decide to just walk first and find someone who has the big heart to let them hop in. The horse that was left in Old Mo's possession could not possibly carry two persons. The horse itself stated its expression that it would not allow it!
