Chapter 146 - Lighting Up The Soul Lamp (1/2)

It was as if Zhong Yue was piqued by the high-spirited words, his blood was boiling hot and his face was red as he shouted out loud, "I will not disappoint my teacher's expectations in your disciple, my loyalty to the monster race shall never be doubted, my heart will have no room for anything else!"

Shu Buyi measured him carefully, trying to see through him and reach his deepest thoughts. Showing a gratified expression, Shu Buyi smiled and said, "I'm very content that you have such high spirit and loyalty. You are able to attain the [Monster God Ming King Art] this is truly exceptional. Now, show me your [Monster God Ming King Art] and tell me your attainments on it, I'll point out your weak points."

He smiled and said, "Your teacher, I, have spent more than two hundred years on the [Monster God Ming King Art] I don't dare to boast that I've fully attained all of the abstrusity in it, but I sure do know very much more than you do."

Zhong Yue feigned surprise and joy and his eyes started to turn red as if they were on the verge of bursting out in tears, "Teacher, for you to treat me like this, this is … your disciple cannot repay your grace anymore other than swearing my life to you!"

Shu Buyi's eyes also turned red and he mumbled, "You are really my good disciple, good disciple … Yue'er!"

"Teacher!"

The two teacher-disciple gazed at each other, their visions blurred in tears, Shu Buyi choke with sobs and said, "What more can anyone ever wish with such a good disciple? Yue'er, now you may show me everything you have and tell me everything you know about the [Monster God Ming King Art] to teacher, I will clear your questions and answer your doubts!"

"Yes, teacher!"

Zhong Yue bowed, he told him everything he had attained from the [Monster God Ming King Art] totem patterns on the pontoons. He even took the initiative to visualize them with his psyche and showed Shi Buyi all of the totem permutations, not hiding or concealing anything at all, not that he dared to anyway. In front of the eyes of such a strong expert like Shi Buyi, doing so would be tantamount to voluntarily seeking death.

Shi Buyi listened carefully, nodding from time to time. After a long while, Zhong Yue had finally demonstrate every minutia of everything he elucidated on the [Monster God Ming King Art] he said sincerely, "This is all that your disciple has managed to attain, may the teacher please enlighten me."

Shi Buyi smiled and gave a look of deep introspection while his words were laden with meaning, "Yue'er, isn't there still the Ming King Divine Eye totem patterns which you haven't talked about? Don't hide it, it's useless to conceal in front of your teacher."

Zhong Yue's face blushed red in shame, he said, "Your disciple I'm useless, I can't attain the divine eye totem patterns. That's why I've replaced the Ming King divine eye with the Yin pupil and Yang pupil. In this part, disciple I'm so much more inferior than you teacher. I'm afraid and fearful which was why I've never shown it to you, teacher."

It was intentional, he changed the sun-moon pupils to the Yin-Yang pupils, it was done so that he could conceal his moon spirit and sun spirit away from Shi Buyi. As long as Shi Buyi was kept in the dark to the fact that acquiring the sun spirit and moon spirit was the only way to cultivate the sun pupil and moon pupil, he will spend more time in researching the two divine eyes, which would eventually lead to him spending all his effort in this matter, leaving him no time on uniting the monster race and go against the Great Wilderness.

En— Shi Buyi made a muffled sound and said with an amicable manner, "It's fine, it's fine. Show them to me, I'll point out your weakness."

Zhong Yue bowed and said yes, then showed the sun pupil and moon pupil to him. Shi Buyi was shocked, the sun pupil and moon pupil totem patterns were very complex, either one of them could be said as a superlative divine eye of the highest caliber, especially the sun pupil, it was even more powerful!

If he could cultivate these two divine eyes, he could patch up on the flaw on the [Monster God Ming King Art] pruning the flaw smaller, or even more, removing it completely!

It could be said that, the value of these two sun pupil and moon pupil was not inferior to the [Monster God Ming King Art] itself in the least!

"Good disciple, very good…" rays flashed in Shi Buyi's eyes as he stared enthralled at the sun pupil and moon pupil totem permutations and changes. He branded them into his heart as he mumbled.

How shrewd was he, he could surely tell that Zhong Yue had shown him the totem patterns of the two divine eyes without concealing a single carving, completely revealing every abstrusity held within it to him!

His talent and perception were peerless, otherwise, he would not have been named the strongest existence in the monster race. Although the sun pupil and moon pupil Zhong Yue showed were very complex, with his intelligence, he was able to remember it all with just a single glance From there, he would be able to slowly research and study them to a deeper level!

Even more so, he could tell that if he had cultivated the sun pupil and moon pupil, he would be able to get the Yin Qi and Yang Qi. They were strong and overwhelming – among the rarest of skills!

Hence, it was evident how attractive the sun pupil and moon pupil were to him!

After a long time, Zhong Yue had shown all of the totem permutations of the sun pupil and moon pupil to him. He glanced at Shi Buyi who was still immersed in the enthralling divine eyes and was attaining the abstrusity in them. He sneered coldly in his heart and thought,  The greater your attainments, the greater the pain you'll suffer. Without the sun spirit and moon spirit, even if you were to attain all of the abstrusity, you still wouldn't be able to cultivate the sun and moon pupil!

Soon, Shi Buyi recollected his thoughts and he gazed deeply at Zhong Yue, smiled and said, "Good disciple, your teacher will now pass my attainments in the [Monster God Ming King Art] over to you."

He raised his finger up and his psyche billowed like ocean waves into Zhong Yue's forehead. In the psyche, it contained a huge clump of cluttered messages that turned into a multitude of patterns, attainments, abstrusities, combat skills, and even methods of forging the Ba Ji Weapons — all of it rushed rushing into Zhong Yue's mind and branded itself into his memory!

Zhong Yue could feel that all sorts of cultivation-related arts relating to the [Monster God Ming King Art] were in his head. Some were even ones that he had never thought of, while some he had yet to attain. He was surprised and overjoyed in his heart.

Shi Buyi was in a hurry to study the sun pupil and moon pupil. That was why he had just recklessly tossed over all of his knowledge to at Zhong Yue. He then took out a dark-green colored copper lamp and said, "My good disciple, this is the soul lamp, one that could only be lit up by your soul. Once you've lightened it up, I would then be able to know your whereabouts. And if you are in trouble, I can know your position in the first minute so that I can rush over and save you. Now, light this lamp with your soul, then you may return to the Fengbo Palace and study the attainments I've given you. Don't disappoint your teacher."
