Chapter 253: Chapter 111 Yan Sansan’s Shock
“I had always thought it was just a suspicion, deep inside, as a teacher, I needed to consider my disciples extensively, how could I intentionally retain secrets or teach flawed methods?”
At this moment, seeing that Mo Hong was encountering the same problems as others, and Mo Baiye, the founder of Mo Dao, had no issues whatsoever, it was clear what was going on.
“Intentionally teaching disciples flawed cultivation methods, so even if they grow stronger, surpassing him would still be nearly impossible...”@@@@
Soon, Zhang Xuan figured out the key.
Unique Destiny, if all is taught to the disciple, and the latter surpasses himself, there would inevitably arise competition. Rather than that, better to intentionally leave some flaws in the teaching, keeping them forever in pursuit, yet never able to surpass!
“Is this what a Life Master is?”
Zhang Xuan looked around.
This Mo Baiye is not the first, and he definitely won’t be the last, likely the entire Source World is filled with such people.
Master teachers from the Master Teacher Continent wish nothing more than to pass on everything they know to their students, and long for their students to grow stronger than themselves, but this place was the complete opposite, taking in disciples but then fearing them surpassing their own capabilities...
No wonder Empyrean Kong Shi was immediately identified as a Mandate Chaos Master as soon as he arrived and was hunted down.
“That’s wrong... Life Masters like to hold back, while master teachers impart all they know, exactly the opposite, like the opposing faces of yin and yang, as if entangled by fate... Could it be that Kong Shi, my father-in-law Nie Yun, and I, are drawn to the Source World for this reason?”
An idea surfaced in his mind.
Earlier on, he thought coming to the Source World was a proactive decision to address the threats of the New World, but now it seems not so simple.
It was like a peculiar fate had enveloped him and people like Kong Shi, compelling their presence.
Lost in thought, the battle between Yan Sansan and Mo Hong had already gone through seven or eight exchanges.
“Alright, time to end this...”
With a low shout, Mo Hong stepped forward, his right hand slicing downwards—a robust wave of saber qi slashing forth.
The previous moves were not his saber art, aiming to best his opponent with just fist and foot, which clearly wasn’t so easy.
“Break!”
Yan Sansan didn’t back down; instead, he charged towards the saber qi. His inner strength revolved to its limit, producing a crackling sound like frying beans, followed by a loud shout, exhaling a breath as powerful as a dragon.
Crack!
Countless fragments of the heavens surged into his body, a crisp sound echoed from the Source Pool, and his aura soared sharply.
Aware that the opponent might be a concealed expert, Mo Hong’s challenge to Yan Sansan earlier was different; he struck directly with a slash, filling the entire hall with saber qi in the blink of an eye, brilliantly dazzling.
Knowing he was in for a tough fight, Zhang Xuan stepped back, thrusting with his sword.
The Pathos of Heaven sword art, transcending the heavens, is bound to attract a lot of attention. Unless at a life-and-death juncture, and sure to kill the opponent, it would certainly not be used.
Fortunately, he was well-versed in countless swordsmanship techniques, including the Xingmeng Swordsmanship he learned in the Master Teacher Continent from his parents, which was also extremely powerful. Now, as he executed it, his sword moved unpredictably, like a dream, an illusion, Mo Hong’s Mo Dao, fierce as it was, could not touch him for the moment.
Originally assuming that Kong Shiyao’s teacher would fail within one move, Yan Sansan was stunned not only by the block but also by the sustained many moves.
Always considered himself as truly invincible below the Galaxy Realm, he had indeed easily defeated Fei Ling and Su Yunzhe.
Now, seeing Zhang Xuan in action, he realized there was a large gap between them.
“Had Mo Hong executed that move just then, my, my palm would have been severed!”
“Had that move been executed, my legs would have been severed...”
“Had that move been executed, my head would have been chopped off...”
In just a few breaths, he saw several undefendable tactics, yet Zhang Xuan handled them with ease, like he was precognitive, not impacted in the slightest. The more he watched, the paler Yan Sansan’s face turned, and his body involuntarily shivered.
Incredible, no wonder Kong Shiyao was so confident.
Now it seemed, even if he broke through to the Galaxy Realm, he would not be able to match his opponent.
He turned to look at Kong Shiyao and the other disciples of Zhang Xuan, only to see each of them composed as if they had always known their teacher would perform this way.
“What kind of freaks are these?”
Yan Sansan could no longer speak.
In contrast to his shock, Mo Baiye squinted his eyes.
“Using a sword, all this skilled? Could it be a mistake?”
If one cultivated Mo Dao Destiny, the sword art shouldn’t be very strong, but now, just by relying on the Dharma Form Realm, he was holding off a disciple at the 3rd level of the Galaxy Realm, simply unimaginable.
“Take action!”
Looking at Mo Hong, he nodded subtly while making a killing gesture.
Mo Hong got the message, Mo Dao turned, and a grand wave of saber qi slashed down.
(In the past few days attending a meeting away from home, I couldn’t push it off; updates are as usual, apologies for the shorter word count.)
