“Sun Mo, leave quickly!”

Bai Wenzhang had been ambushed and injured by Xiao Feng, so he basically had no combat strength left. But for the sake of holding the Undying Old Man back so Sun Mo could have a chance of survival, he was preparing to use his life.

“Scram!”

The bones in the Undying Old Man’s body had exploded, and he was so heavily injured that he was at the point of demise. But even so, he still wanted to live.

As long as he consumed Sun Mo, he would be reborn!

The Undying Old Man’s gaze was malevolent and he looked like a crazy wild beast.

“Dean, thank you!”

Sun Mo carried Li Ziqi and rushed out of the door.

“Brat, come back for me!”

The Undying Old Man let out a mournful scream of anger. He grew increasingly anxious. “Why do you help him? If we eat him, we will be able to continue living.”

“For someone like you, as long as you remain alive, it would be profaning life. But if Sun Mo remains alive, it would be the blessing of the Nine Provinces!”

Bai Wenzhang spoke in contempt.

“Have you gone crazy from reading too many books?”

The Undying Old Man punched Bai Wenzhang’s head. “Living is something everyone would seek. As long as we live, everything we do can be forgi…”

The Undying Old Man couldn’t finish saying the word ‘forgiven’ as a spiritwave beam shot over and penetrated his head.

Sun Mo did leave, but he was using his clone as a tactic to confuse his enemy. His real self was still here and when the Undying Old Man wasn’t paying attention, the clone unleashed a fatal strike.

“Ah!”

The Undying Old Man screamed.

“He can survive even that?”

Sun Mo was truly impressed. If the Undying Old Man was at his peak, how strong would he be?

(Can he use his body to block a nuclear warhead?)

Luckily, Bai Wenzhang was there to finish him off.

Bang!

The Undying Old Man, one of the five Doyens of the Dark Dawn, finally fell onto the ground with his dilapidated body.

“Dean!”

Sun Mo rushed back and hurriedly treated Bai Wenzhang.

“Didn’t I tell you to flee?” Bai Wenzhang felt a lingering fear. “What if your sneak attack failed?”

“I, Sun Mo, will never abandon my friends!”

Sun Mo chortled. “Also, don’t give up. Maybe there’s hope for your condition now!”

Not only was Bai Wenzhang a man, but he was also a hegemon that stood at the peak of the spirit rune world. But at this moment, he was actually sobbing.

He knew that Sun Mo had had several chances to flee. Even the Undying Old Man drinking his blood had been something planned intentionally by Sun Mo. This was because Sun Mo wanted to use the Undying Old Man to test the effect of the god’s object.

This was all for Bai Wenzhang’s sake.

As expected, Sun Mo directly sliced his wrist and let his blood flow.

“Dean, don’t waste it!”

Sun Mo urged.

In the past, he hadn’t understood why Bai Wenzhang’s lifeforce was dwindling and had assumed that it must be because Bai Wenzhang had done too many experiments and got poisoned by some unknown substances. It was only until after he had devoured what Lu Feng called a god skeleton did he finally understand.

That skeleton looked like a dead object, but it was actually alive. Whenever Bai Wenzhang did research on it, his lifeforce would be siphoned off unceasingly.

Now, Sun Mo gave his blood to Bai Wenzhang. Although this couldn’t allow Bai Wenzhang to immediately flourish with a vibrant lifeforce, there was definitely no problem for Bai Wenzhang to live a few more years.

“Sun Mo, thank you!”

Bai Wenzhang choked.

“What are you talking about? Let’s speak later!”

Sun Mo stared at the Undying Old Man’s corpse. He wondered what sorts of treasures he would be able to obtain from it.

He felt some anticipation.

…

Lu Feng managed to escape from the manor. After rushing madly for three days, he decided to hide in a mountain cave.

“Why didn’t Sun Mo die? So far, all the experimental subjects have been digested by the god skeletons and became their vessels. If their attributes weren’t compatible, they would explode directly. Why isn’t this the case for Sun Mo?”

Lu Feng was extremely puzzled.

“Could it be because of his bloodline?”

“That’s incorrect. My teacher has used his blood to do an experiment before, but there was no such indication.”

“Could it be Sun Mo’s mother’s blood?”

Lu Feng sank into deep thoughts and started to feel conflicted. This question was destined to not have an answer because this experiment was something he did behind the back of his teacher. If he did something like that again, he might be killed directly.

“Forget it, I’ll meet Sun Mo again when the 4-star great teacher examination comes!”

Lu Feng made his decision.

…

Half a month passed.

Sun Mo didn’t do any operations during this time. Other than reading books and giving lessons to his students every day, he spent the rest of his time cultivating.

Although there were no problems, Bai Wenzhang didn’t dare to be careless and got Sun Mo to do a full-body inspection every day.

Li Ziqi was very shocked. Such a gigantic skeleton had fused into her teacher’s body, but up until now, there didn’t seem to be any changes to his appearance at all.

(Oh right, Teacher has leveled up once and is now at the peak of the second level of the Longevity Realm.)

The Undying Old Man died and left a jadestone behind. It was a pinnacle-quality image-recording stone that contained all his research achievements and medical skills.

Sun Mo had no interest in the medical arts. Hence, he gave it to Tantai Yutang and got him to study it himself.

Also, Bai Wenzhang’s body gradually got better.

Time passed by fleetingly.

Without realizing it, early winter arrived.

Sun Mo had stayed for over 10 months in the Dragonspirit Manor.

The time wasn’t long, but he had great harvests.

Sun Mo’s skill in the study of spirit runes enjoyed tremendous improvement. As for Li Ziqi, because she was acting as his assistant, her horizons were also broadened and her knowledge had increased.

According to Sun Mo’s estimation, Li Ziqi’s level of expertise should almost be at the grandmaster level.

One must know that Li Ziqi was very intelligent, and the experiments and researches she took part in were all very high-end ones. Once she encountered a problem, the person answering the questions would either be Sun Mo or Bai Wenzhang. Therefore, it was impossible even if she didn’t want to improve.

Finally, the date of departure arrived.

“Dean, it’s enough. You have accompanied us for so long.”

Sun Mo pleaded again.

Bai Wenzhang, who regarded time as something very important, actually took the time to escort Sun Mo for over 50 miles.

“Ai, I wonder when we will meet again?”

Bai Wenzhang sighed.

He could tell that Sun Mo’s attainments in the study of spirit runes were catching up to him. But Sun Mo seemed to have no interest in improving any further.

If he wasn’t there to urge Sun Mo, he was afraid Sun Mo might choose to focus on researching other subjects instead.

“You can also come to the Central Province Academy to look for me!”

Sun Mo laughed.

“Because of your blood, I can actually live a few years more. I naturally want to hurry up and finish my experiments.”

After Bai Wenzhang finished speaking, he suddenly got down from his horse and dipped into a deep bow toward Sun Mo with a solemn expression.

“Sun Mo, thank you for giving me a chance to see the final answer of my experiments.”

Bai Wenzhang thanked him.

“Dean, why must you do this?”

Sun Mo hurriedly dismounted and wanted to help Bai Wenzhang up. However, Bai Wenzhang refused to budge, and he remained in the bowing position for three seconds before he straightened his back.

“Alright, all good things will come to an end. You should leave!”

Bai Wenzhang exerted force and patted Sun Mo on his shoulder. “Let me congratulate you in advance for getting the championship in the 4-star great teacher examination.”

After that, Bai Wenzhang looked at Li Ziqi.

“I also hope that you will be able to become the champion of the personal student battle and ascend to the Hero Rankings!”

Li Ziqi hurriedly returned the politeness.

…

Bai Wenzhang left and Sun Mo also set off on the path of departure.

“System, with my current knowledge in the field of spirit runes, what is my ranking? I should be ranked at least within the top ten in the Nine Provinces, right?”

Sun Mo was curious.

“Top five in the Nine Provinces, the ranking isn’t in sequence!”

The system replied.

“Huh?”

Sun Mo was startled.. “The ranking isn’t in sequence? Doesn’t that mean that I’m also ranked one? Say, I’m so awesome. Are you not giving me a reward?”
