527 Confused Ethics (2/2)

That was easier said than done! In this dangerous situation, the black tide frequently penetrated inside the Dragon Palace, thus their one year of cultivation had never been stable. Even if Ouyang Shang suppressed the Dragon Palace, he could not block the plot of the demon king who mysteriously appeared and disappeared, thus danger frequent occurred. In addition, this place lacked the surrounding spiritual energy, which for the young cultivators who were trying to grow, was like suffering hunger and thirst daily. At the same time, they also must consume the poison-like pulp gutter oil… Being able to calm the mind in such an environment was really a kind of ability.

At least, among the seventy-five people present in this palace, only a few people could do it… No, it could even be said that it was only Wang Wu alone who could do it.

Even for Ouyang Shang and Wang Lu, due to external matters, they were encumbered, and thus their cultivation rhythm was broken repeatedly. Especially when the demon king successfully hurt the cultivator of Spirit Sword Sect, which caused emotional swings and affected the efficiency of their cultivation. However, Wang Wu could actually adhere to her cultivation rhythm from the beginning to the end. Regardless of any change in the outside world, not a single bit of perturbation existed in her daily cultivation schedule.

Obsessed with cultivation, but not impatient. Although the great mountain collapsed in the front, there was no change in the countenance. Someone who possessed such a quality would naturally stand out in a special environment. After Cai Xia got the answer, although she was still unwilling, she could only admire the judgment of the Sect Leader and her Big Brother, and then candidly admit her defeat.

However, as a matter of fact, in the eyes of Wang Lu and Ouyang Shang, this was not that simple. Wang Wu herself had not felt it, but by relying on a calm state of mind alone, how could she go from low-level Xudan to Peak Xudan in just a year? Could Wang Wu maintain a stabler state of mind than those who went on seclusion who were by nature indifferent?

The key here was that, her ability to adapt to the local situation was too strong! No one had previously seen that she had this ability! She made good use of each of the existing condition. In the past one year, every time she consumed the essence of the black tide extracted by Wang Lu, she used a special skill to make the most of the energy. And compared to the other Senior Brothers and Sisters, her efficiency was at least several times higher...

Most of the cultivators absorbed the surrounding spiritual energy, but most of them would be wasted by squandering. Only a small part of it would end up being stored inside the body. How to improve the conversion rate had always been the key topic for cultivators. Nowadays, among the cultivation methods of the great sects, this piece of content was their core secret. Any modification had to go through the thoughts of countless of people before anyone dared to try it. However, Wang Wu… actually boldly modified the content of her method by herself. And her revisions perfectly adapted to the current environment, especially in terms of greatly strengthening the digestive system for the gutter oil. Thus, it allowed her to advance by leaps and bounds in just a year.

However, how could that be achieved solely based on her? Modifying the core method required deduction ability that was against the heaven and strong accumulation. Even Wang Lu and Ouyang Shang didn't dare to say that they have the ability to modify their core cultivation method at will… And Wang Wu, at least before this, was never known for her perception. So how did she do it?

If it was Wang Wu one hundred and fifty years in the future, then it might be easy to understand. Wang Lu's against the heaven Non-Phase Method was tailor-made for him by Wang Wu, in which she created the first ten layers from scratch in just one or two years. Her perception in this was definitely against the heaven. However, the present Wang Wu absolutely could not do it.

Unable to repress his curiosity, Wang Lu simply asked her, but the answer that he got made him unable to know whether to laugh or to cry.

”This is not entirely my original idea. I was just referring to your Non-Phase Method.” Wang Wu asked somewhat in amazement, ”How can't you see it? Why would you think that I have my original method?”

”... You're learning from my Non-Phase Method? I don't remember telling you about this method.”

”Yes, you never told me, but when you cultivate, you never avoid other people, so I have seen a lot. Naturally, I can understand some interesting stuff. There are many that are worthy to learn from, and I used these as references to modify my cultivation method. The results are really effective.”

Listening to this, Wang Lu couldn't but become stunned. ”... And then?”

”And then… Oh, I forgot to say thank you, I'm sorry,” Wang Wu said, and then nodded lightly to show her gratitude. And then she closed her eyes to continue her cultivation, which was still lightning speed.

Wang Lu had already been thoroughly speechless.

The causal relationship in this… was really confusing. The reason why Wang Lu didn't immediately give the essence of the Non-Phase Method to its inventor Wang Wu was that he wanted to avoid this kind of contradictory line of cause and effect. Otherwise, the master would become the disciple, and the disciple would become the master. Wasn't this a chaotic and confusing relation? Unexpectedly, even after was being careful, he still could not escape this confusing situation.

However, if this opportunity could be taken to wake up the number one Jindan in Nine Regions early, then that would not be a bad thing. He didn't expect her to achieve her future height in just one or two years, but under this situation, no one would refuse a strong teammate.

If Cai Xia, Yang Fei, and the others had suffered bitter training in the past one year, then the pressure on Wang Lu and Ouyang Shang as the protector of the entire Dragon Palace were ten times as many. Moreover, as time went on, the future was even less optimistic.
