Chapter 3: Chapter 3: Demon Emperor's Divine Skill
Quiet!
Those who were running away also stopped and stared blankly, along with Nan Xiaopao, at Su Yie's retreating figure.
At this moment, Su Yie's slightly emaciated figure exuded a sense of immovable security like that of Mount Tai, as if there were nothing he couldn't withstand!
"Huff, huff—"
Su Yie gasped for air; that sword strike left him feeling as if all his strength had been drained away.
The people behind finally snapped back to reality and began exclaiming in amazement.
"Damn! That's so awesome!"
"Who is he? That was such a cool sword move!"
"Did I just see things?"
"Is this for real? Can this guy really do martial arts?"
"Martial arts? He's more like an Exorcism Taoist!"
Students and teachers alike were in awe, and even some students on the sports field had witnessed the scene. The seemingly CGI-like azure Sword Qi quickened their heartbeats.
Humans always feel a sense of curiosity towards the supernatural.
Nan Xiaopao hurried to Su Yie's side, supporting him, and asked with concern, "Are you all right?"
"I'm fine, just help me to a safe place where there are no people."
Su Yie said with a low chuckle, feeling weak all over. If anyone wanted to snatch his Zhou Wu Sword, he doubted he could resist.
In the Ancient Wilderness, akin to an apocalypse, one must always guard against others!
Having entered society at an early age, Su Yie had seen his fair share of deceit and knew this all too well.
Understanding his meaning, Nan Xiaopao promptly helped him leave.
Though curious about Su Yie, the students and teachers didn't follow; they were still puzzled about where the giant serpent had come from.
Soon, the teachers began to gather the students and contemplated checking the surrounding tall forests, not realizing such actions were tantamount to seeking death.
Elsewhere.
Nan Xiaopao helped Su Yie to her dormitory. It was Su Yie's first time in a girls' dorm, but his great anxiety pushed aside any other concerns.
"There's nobody in your dormitory?" Su Yie asked curiously.
"We don't have class today; they've all gone out to shop."
Nan Xiaopao replied, her beautiful eyes fixed on Su Yie, showing not curiosity or bewilderment but profound care.
Actually, Su Yie had long noticed her feelings for him, but he dared not accept them, knowing well what he brought to the table and that he was unworthy of Nan Xiaopao.
Although Nan Xiaopao wasn't considered a rich girl, she had excellent personal qualities and a comfortable family background. As many pursued her, Su Yie feared following him would bring her hardship, which was one reason why he worked so hard at his jobs.
Reaching the third floor, Nan Xiaopao helped Su Yie to a bed in the dormitory room, then she locked the door from inside.
The dormitory was strewn with girls' clothes, causing Su Yie's face to turn slightly red.
Noticing his expression, Nan Xiaopao couldn't help but cover her mouth and giggle, saying, "I'm going to change my clothes."
After speaking, she grabbed a set of clothes from her bed and walked into the balcony bathroom, softly closing the door behind her.
This girl...
Su Yie shook his head and smiled wryly, quickly pulling out his phone to make an inquiry.
While the Zhou Wu Sword was powerful, its consumption was too great, frankly quite risky.
He opened his phone, and the screen still displayed the chat interface of Emperor Su's Sect, impossible to switch away or even make a call.
Emperor Su: What happens when a mortal uses the Zhou Wu Sword?
Black Tiger Emperor: Huh? Emperor Su? Predecessor, why ask such a question? Mortals would certainly die using the Zhou Wu Sword!
Demon Lord Qing Yan: The Zhou Wu Sword is an Immortal Sword; how could mere mortals wield it?
Upon reading this, Su Yie broke out in a cold sweat and cursed inwardly.
This question made Black Tiger Emperor and Demon Lord Qing Yan somewhat skeptical of Su Yie, frightening him into hastily changing the subject.
Emperor Su: Demon Lord Qing Yan, Wux Qingyao, it's time for you to contribute your resources, or else you will be expelled from Emperor Su's Sect!
Demon Lord Qing Yan: Is expulsion also an option?
Black Tiger Emperor: Hahaha, Predecessor Emperor Su possesses vast divine skills, why don't you hand over some treasures? It's better than missing an opportunity.
Wu Qingyao: I have a set of Exquisite Robes here, a gift for Emperor Su's Sect.
No sooner had she spoken than Su Yi found himself with a set of silver-colored lotus robes in his hands, adorned with many silver flakes, dazzling beyond compare, and cool to the touch.
But...
The idea of him wearing a skirt...
Su Yi suddenly felt a chill and silently wished to deposit it in the Repository of the Dao, and the Exquisite Robe in his hands disappeared.
The Repository of the Dao was an independent space within his cell phone, where he could store many things, retrievable with just a thought.
He then deposited the Zhou Wu Sword into it as well, and when he thought of the Zhou Wu Sword, it reappeared in his hand instantaneously. The speed of retrieval and release was incredibly fast, which pleased him immensely.
Right after, he picked up his cell phone again.
At that moment, the Black Tiger Emperor was persuading the Demon Lord Qing Yan to hand over treasures to remain in Emperor Su's Sect.
Black Tiger Emperor: Demon Lord, this is an opportunity. Even if the predecessor deceives us, we won't lose much. But if it's true, we'll regret it for the rest of our lives!
Demon Lord Qing Yan: ...
Black Tiger Emperor: Think about it, have you ever encountered such a powerful being with divine skills that can connect us together? I certainly haven't heard of any.
Wu Qingyao: Why not send this demon head packing? The thought of being with him disgusts me.
Demon Lord Qing Yan: Hmph! I insist on staying! I have ten bottles of Dragon Strength Pills here. Each bottle contains ten pills. Consuming one grants the strength of one dragon!
As soon as he finished speaking, Su Yi suddenly had ten white jade bottles in his hand.
Su Yi opened one of them to find ten golden pills, each the size of a thumbnail.
"Strength of one dragon..."
Su Yi was invigorated. In Hua Xia, the dragon was considered the most supreme divine beast, and its power needs no elaboration.
Meanwhile, within the Emperor Su's Sect...
Black Tiger Emperor: A hundred Dragon Strength Pills? Wow, that's quite generous! Then, I'll donate my cultivation technique as well. This is a treasure that I've held in the highest personal regard. My achievements today are all thanks to it!
Demon Lord Qing Yan: Really talking yourself up, as if you're all that powerful.
As soon as the Black Tiger Emperor finished speaking, a ragged ancient book appeared in Su Yi's left hand, with four profound and enigmatic characters on it that he couldn't understand.
"What's this?"
Su Yi was curious and stared intently at the four characters until their meaning suddenly appeared in his mind.
Demon Emperor's Divine Skill!
What a lame name. Could it be any more cliché?
Su Yi internally criticized, while simultaneously amazed at how he could understand such text. Could it be because of his cell phone?
Thinking this, he first stored the Dragon Strength Pills into his Repository of the Dao and then began to read the Demon Emperor's Divine Skill. The text inside was still oddly profound, but as soon as his gaze touched it, he inexplicably understood it. The sensation was magical.
After a while, Su Yi quickly memorized the cultivation method within Demon Emperor's Divine Skill.
This was a Demon Clan cultivation method, absorbing the essence of the sun and the moon to temper the physical body, divided into five levels!
The first layer, Demon Qi Transformation!
The second layer, Demon Core Condensation!
The third layer, Demon Emperor's Qi!
The fourth layer, Devouring Demons and Goblins!
The fifth layer, Physical Sanctification!
This feels incredibly powerful!
I actually memorized it all. Could I be a cultivation prodigy?
Su Yi could barely contain his excitement. Normally, memorizing textbook content gave him a headache, but memorizing a cultivation technique, he found it unforgettable.
