533 Knife God (1/2)
Saint Woodcutter looked at the opposite side where a few devil gods had brought their proud students. Those young devil experts were all overflowing with fierce auras. Every one of them had terrifying corporeal bodies and were extremely strong. They were obviously experts that had been through life and death.
He'd fought with the devils before and deeply knew the strength of this race. Purely based on corporeal body, even if the divine arts practitioners of Supreme Emperor Heaven had the aptitude of a true god, they would still be slightly inferior.
On top of that, because there were many battles in Supreme Emperor Heaven, they frequently had to fight with the devils, so it was difficult for them to form schools and academies like Eternal Peace did. They also couldn't form large-scale sects, so it was usually gods finding outstanding talents to personally teach them.
There were advantages and disadvantages to doing so. The advantages were that with the personal teachings of the gods and devils, every one of them was elites with extremely powerful abilities. There were no flaws in the inheritance of paths, skills, and divine arts in Supreme Emperor Heaven. Even god level techniques could be passed down. For example Sang Hua, she was personally taught by her father Sang Ye.
The disadvantage was that one person could only learn what their master had to teach and that's it. They found it very difficult to learn other people's ultimate arts. For example, Sang Hua cultivated Sang Ye's technique and divine arts, so she had never learned a divine art that he did not possess. Even if she learned it, the other party wouldn't be able to teach her as diligently as Sang Ye.
By without learning the techniques and divine arts of others, one could only be skilled in a specialized area, but this resulted in the paths, skills, and divine arts of Supreme Emperor Heaven not showing any improvement. They were much inferior to those of Eternal Peace.
Qin Mu was able to see that which meant that Saint Woodcutter could naturally see it too.
He looked at the youth who was still forging and couldn't help doubting himself. 'When I saw him in danger in the battlefield, I executed a divine art that he could comprehend, and he learned it immediately, escaping successfully. By right, this successor of mine should have unmatched talent and have cultivated the technique I had passed down to the degree of perfection, which was why he was able to comprehend my divine art in an instant. Yet why has he become so unreliable now? Could my judgment have really been wrong?'
At that moment, a god walked over and bowed. ”Heavenly Master, the Seven Stars Realm's experts of Supreme Emperor Heaven are here!”
Saint Woodcutter looked at them and nodded gently. ”Let them come in.”
Sang Hua looked around, and her eyes suddenly lit up. ”The one who threshes grains, that girl is called Yu He! She's the number one divine arts practitioner of Seven Stars Realm!”
Qin Mu pulled out a sword from the fire wall and examined it. The heat still wasn't there yet, so he stuffed it back in.
Sang Hua was beyond excited. She said to Qin Mu, ”Yu He is the disciple of True God Pang Yu and has passed through the test of God Suppression Pagoda. She has slain three devil experts at the level of a young true devil and is acclaimed as the number one in Seven Stars Realm! That's her, the girl who bunned up her hair so high that it looks like a small pagoda. She's very pretty!”
The black tiger god looked over at the girl called Yu He who had a cold expression. She removed her earrings, bracelets, and tidied her clothes. It was evident that she was ready for a life and death struggle.
”She's indeed not bad, an expert,” the black tiger god praised. ”She removed the extra accessories from her body for her movements to be unrestricted. She can be said to have been forged in hundreds of battles.”
”The one who threshes grains, look, look! The top ten divine arts practitioners of Seven Stars Realm are all here... Wait, that's not right, there are two people missing. Could they have died in battle?”
Qin Mu focused on his forging and shook to transform into the true form of Mercury Sovereign. He drew cold water vapor to cool down the sword. He then grabbed the flying sword and poured his vital qi in. Rubbing his hands, he turned the shiny sword into a pellet.
He then nodded in satisfaction.
Sang Hua was ineffably excited. ”Look, that's Shu Yao! His master is True God Yan Shuo, but he, unfortunately, died in the last fight with Fu Riluo... However, Shu Yao is indeed abnormally powerful. He has the manner of a master and his technique is overbearing while his divine arts are fierce. What he walks is the route of the corporeal body becoming that of a saint!”
The black tiger god looked at Shu Yao and saw that this youth had a calm bearing that wouldn't be alarmed even if the heaven fell. Even when faced with so many gods and devils, he didn't have a change in expression.
”He's much steadier than the one who threshes grains that looked around in wonder all the time. This Shu Yao is also an expert,” the black tiger god praised.
Shu Yao walked over. He was an extremely earnest youth, and his bearing was extraordinary calm.
The few people beside him were also extremely unordinary. Every one of them, no matter if it was a boy or girl, they all had thick murderous aura surrounding them. All of them should have just come from the battlefield.
Sang Hua was excited to the highest level. ”These people that could walk out of God Suppression Pagoda are all young experts, and each of them is legendary! That's Huang Yue over there. He has been through numerous big battles and is known for his outstanding military service! He's also the disciple of True God Pang Yu and was the fastest to pass through God Suppression Pagoda. It's just that his ranking is a little low, at rank three!”
Qin Mu put away all the flying swords he had finished refining while stuffing all the others into Li Fire to continue working non-stop.
The black tiger god looked at Huang Yue who was obviously a martial maniac. Even under such a situation, he was still cultivating. He didn't forget to execute his technique even when he was walking, and clouds floated above his head.
His technique was very strange, and he had already cultivated his primordial spirit. Even though he couldn't project it yet, he could already have it breathe vital qi in and out.
The clouds above his head were visions formed from his primordial spirit condensing his vital qi.
”The cultivation of this man is extremely dense!” The eyes of the black tiger god lit up, and he praised, ”Another martial maniac, but his thoughts are very pure. He doesn't have any other thoughts besides growing stronger, so his frame of mind is naturally great! The one who threshes grains and long braid girl, you two should learn from him.”
Sang Hua knew that he was giving her pointers and hurriedly nodded.
The black tiger god looked at Qin Mu who took out another bunch of flying swords to stab them into the fire. He smacked another one with his hammer to refine away the impurities within it.
The black tiger god's complexion turned black.
Yu He looked over and her gaze landed on Qin Mu who was busy forging his swords. She frowned slightly and asked Sang Hua, ”Junior Sister Sang Hua, this person is?”
Sang Hua looked at her in admiration and replied with a smile, ”This is Qin Mu; he's from another world. His Qin is the Qin from threshing grains. Senior sister, you've become world famous in the battle in Shi City...”
Yu He's expression fell. ”However, Shi City still fell into the enemy's hands. The devils' abilities are indeed slightly stronger than ours. However, the divine arts practitioners of my Supreme Emperor Heaven are no weaker than the devils who are just relying on their numbers!”
Shu Yao walked over and gave Sang Hua a gentle smile. ”Sister Sang Hua, you haven't entered God Suppression Pagoda yet, right? I see your abilities are also extraordinary and have improved a lot since we last met. You will definitely be able to pass the test of God Suppression Pagoda.”
