Absolute Great Teacher

The densely packed spirit stones on the walls of the Wind King Hall were sending out spirit qi in an overwhelming manner amidst the flickering light due to the imbalance of the spirit pressure.

The one who had caused this to happen was Sun Mo.

In this attempt to strive for a breakthrough, he had absorbed too much spirit qi at a very quick rate. He was like a black hole, incessantly causing the surroundings to be drawn out into a vacuum state.

The Crown Bee Honey was good stuff. Not only did it contain spirit qi, but there were also various beneficial nutrients to the body. When women drink it, it would also have a beautifying effect.

If other people were to get a hive by chance, they’d definitely not bear to drink the honey. However, Sun Mo was different. He had turned the Crown Bee Queen into his battle pet.

With that, the entire swarm belonged to him.

There’d be plenty of honey left even if he were to sell some of them, let alone drinking some honey water with his disciples every day.

Of course, there was no way that he’d sell it.

It wasn’t as if Sun Mo was short of money!

Moreover, such honey was an extremely valuable raw material for alchemical pills. After saving a portion of it, Sun Mo gave some to Mei Yazhi. She wanted to know if she would be able to make alchemical pills with them.

Sun Mo had been drinking the honey to nurture his body. Moreover, after eating the Green-robed Ancestor’s jade cicada, it started to merge with Sun Mo and released the mysterious power it contained.

This was the most important factor for his breakthrough.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Spirit qi kept on fluctuating on Sun Mo’s body, piercing through his skin and charging out of his body.

Pffft! Pffft!

When the blood flowed out, it immediately turned into vapor. Therefore, the hall was filled with a layer of red fog.

“Why isn’t it over even though it’s been so long?”

Lu Zhiruo, who was in charge of guarding, looked very worried. She kept casting glances toward the hall.

“When you strive for a breakthrough, the amount of spirit qi you take in and release is even more exaggerating than what Teacher is doing now.”

Tantai Yutang teased. “Don’t worry too much. Teacher is still young. Even if he were to fail this time around, he’d still have plenty of chances in the future.

Swoosh!

The sickly guy had just said this when Sun Mo’s other disciples stared over with displeased gazes.

Even Qin Yaoguang, who was usually a carefree person, had complaints today.

“To every cultivator, rising to the Longevity Realm is the most important hurdle to cross in their lifetime. Don’t be making jokes carelessly.”

“Alright, I’ll apologize!”

Tantai Yutang felt awkward. He knew that he had misspoken.

However, this was what his character was like—he was unconcerned about anything.

Boom!

Suddenly, a loud explosion rang out in the hall. The seething spirit qi then dissipated gradually.

The disciples immediately lost interest in chatting, and all of them charged toward the hall. It was because their teacher had ended his attempt to strive for a breakthrough. As for whether the result was good or bad…

To speak the truth, they weren’t sure either. After all, amongst great teachers, it wasn’t common to see people reaching the Longevity Realm in their twenties.

Sun Mo continued to sit cross-legged on the floor. He didn’t get up immediately but carefully sensed the changes in his body.

He was someone who took action after making plans. Therefore, he had tried to find out what the Longevity Realm state was like.

It made one younger!

One’s aging body would be able to sense youth beckoning at them.

Their skin would be firmer, bouncier, and had an indescribable glow.

One’s blood flow was like a great river that seethed endlessly or a raging horn. One’s heart would beat strongly like a battle drum or a great thunder. It was as if every time it beat, the mountains and rivers would change.

Of course, the most important thing was still the elevation on the spiritual level.

Sun Mo had burned a lot of midnight oil to mark assignments and play games. In addition to his busy workload, he often didn’t have enough energy.

He often experienced headaches, stuffy chest, and his eyesight was also bad. However, he was now energetic like a 16-year-old young man, filled with curiosity and the desire to explore the world.

(Fatigued? Dispirited? That won’t happen.)

Sun Mo’s spirit was like a blazing ball of fire.

“It’s really great to not need to wear glasses.”

Sun Mo sighed.

Right now, he’d be completely unaffected even if he was in an environment with dim lighting. He’d be able to see further and clearer.

It was as if he was equipped with a 16x zoom lens.

“Did Teacher succeed?”

Xianyu Wei felt perplexed. (Teacher, why are you being so calm? There’s no way to assess the result based on your expression at all.)

However, Lu Zhiruo looked elated and came running over.

“Teacher, congratulations on advancing to the L .”

“En!”

Sun Mo nodded. The atmosphere that hung around his disciples instantly relaxed.

“You guys can continue with your cultivation. I’ll be going out!”

Sun Mo got up.

There were nine levels to the Longevity Realm, with the meaning of making a full circle and arriving back in the beginning.

When cultivators stepped into this realm, their lifespan would start to increase, getting at most 100 years or at least several years with each level attained. It was said that there were old monsters who’d be able to live to 1,000 years old.

However, this would depend on the individual’s aptitude.

At the same time, their battle prowess would also increase in folds.

This realm was a process of changing quantity to quality. Therefore, after cultivators reached their limits, they’d be able to get into the legendary realm.

A legend in the human world, the one and only!

A magnate that could overturn rivers and seas with one hand.

“Teacher, aren’t you going to share some of your experience with us?”

Qin Yaoguang felt curious.

“This realm requires you to comprehend it by yourself when the time comes. Even if it turns out to be a failed attempt, it’ll still be considered a type of growth. If I were to tell you about it now, it’d be harming you instead.”

It wasn’t that Sun Mo was selfish, but that this thing was too personalized.

As the realm went up higher, it was no longer a training of the body but also the tempering of the mind. This was what it meant to be a giant on the ideological level.

“People have different perspectives of the world when they are in different positions.”

Sun Mo smiled. “And I believe you guys will definitely be able to walk on your own paths even without my experience.”

“I’ve benefited from your teaching!”

The disciples bowed.

“Good luck!”

Sun Mo encouraged them and then planned on leaving, but Helian Beifang called him.

“Teacher, there’s something that I need to report to you!”

Helian Beifang spoke respectfully, but there was worry on his face that couldn’t be hidden.

“Go on!” Sun Mo consoled. “You don’t have to be too reserved.”

This barbaric young man was always too polite and cared too much about the rules between teacher and student. To put it simply, it was hard to forge a closer relationship with him. He was a person who went by the book.

“Teacher, I’ve comprehended Self-Taught Halo.”

After Helian Beifang said this, the others gasped in surprise.

“Wow, that’s amazing!”

The papaya girl clapped softly, feeling happy for Helian Beifang.

The others also quickly congratulated him. Jiang Leng even gave him a light punch in the chest.

“When did that happen?”

Tantai Yutang asked.

“It was a few days after Teacher taught Eldest Martial Sister on the roof.”

Back then, when Helian Beifang saw the conversation between Sun Mo and Li Ziqi, he was moved.

He started to think about what it was that he really wanted?

It should be his tribe’s prosperity, not wanting to see his tribesmen go through suffering!

Then what should he do?

In the past, Helian Beifang felt that he should become a hero or a king that led his tribesmen out to war. He should claim a piece of land on the plains that would belong to his tribe.

This was how those powerful tribes on the plains had risen and were replaced.

However, after staying by Sun Mo’s side to learn from him and listening to his teachings, then eventually overhearing the conversation between Sun Mo and Li Ziqi the other day, his emotions were stirred.

A person’s abilities were limited.

Moreover, he might never become a hero. But if he were to become a teacher, even if he only taught ten students, the chances of a hero being borned would increase by ten times.

“Congratulations!”

Sun Mo didn’t expect that another disciple had comprehended Self-Taught Halo.

It was great news!

“Teacher, in the future, I might teach what I’ve learned from you to my tribesmen!”

Helian Beifang knew that people from the Central Plains despised and looked down on the barbarians. Therefore, they discriminated against the people from the plains.

Just like how the Central Plains’ people wouldn’t sell metal tools to the people from the plains, there were also a lot of books and knowledge that the former wouldn’t teach the latter.

There were only a few people from the plains in the Central Plains’ famous schools.

“Do as you wish!”

Sun Mo didn’t care about such things. “I hope that you’ll be able to teach a few good disciples.”

“Hmmm? Junior Martial Brother Helian, why are you still unhappy?”

Lu Zhiruo couldn’t understand.

“Junior martial brother, if you have something on your mind, just say it out loud. Since Teacher has taken you in as his disciple, he’ll definitely put up with the mistakes that you’ve made!”

Li Ziqi said encouragingly. She could tell that this guy had a heavy burden in his mind.

“Teacher, people from the Central Plains and the barbarians have great differences in terms of their lifestyle, habits, and culture. I feel that the friction between the two will keep on rising and in the end, leading to war. If I were to teach them the knowledge, they’d end up defeating the Nine Provinces’ countries and eventually gaining entry into the Central Plains…”

Helian Beifang was in agony. He felt that this problem was unavoidable.

“Helian, you’re really thinking too much. Don’t worry, you people from the plains won’t have that chance.”

Qin Yaoguang pouted.

The others didn’t say anything but looked toward Sun Mo, waiting for a reply.

“What is war for?”

Sun Mo asked.

“It’s to live a better life, to have meat to eat, with wine to drink, with a home of one’s own, and to be able to afford marrying a wife and have children. It’s not to let one be a slave for their entire lifetime, being suppressed by others.”

Helian Beifang spoke up.

This showed that his tribe had enough of being pressured.

“That’s right. Going to war is to achieve a better life. But have you thought about it before? If knowledge is developed to a certain degree, people will use it to create countless food and clothing. When that happens, everyone will have their fill to eat and warm clothes to wear. Who’ll still fight to the bitter end for these things? They’ll only do things that they are interested in.

“When that happens, the reason people work is because they like the job and are interested in it. It won’t be for the sake of survival.”

Of course, letting the whole world become one was an ideal state. But this topic was too deep, and it’d be impossible to finish it even if they were to talk about it for three days and three nights.

Li Ziqi and the others were all stunned.

It was because the future that Sun Mo was saying seemed too unbelievable.

“Everyone can really work not because they wish to survive?”

Lu Zhiruo mumbled.

She was a sympathetic girl and would feel sad and shed tears when she saw commoners suffering hardships. And due to her father, she had seen too many of such cases.

“It’s possible, but the prerequisite is that there are ample means of production.”

Sometimes, Sun Mo couldn’t understand why everyone couldn’t gather their energies together to work hard for a better future for mankind.

“Teacher, I have a question!”

Qin Yaoguang raised her hand.
