“What’s this?”
Sun Mo frowned. At the instant before the divine book slammed into his chest, due to his instinct, he evaded it.
Asa result, the divine book missed and slammed into an invisible barrier near the palace gate before rebounding from the impact. After that, a thudding sound rang out as it fell onto the ground.
(Aiya mommy, it’s so painful!)
The divine book squirmed aroun4, like a sick patient on their deathbed.
‘The audience who was gathered here to spectate all exchanged mutual glances.
“Great Teacher Sun, it wants you to flip through it. Why don’t you just read it?”
The library administrator was among the crowd and stared at Sun Mo with a look of bitter resentment. (Do you know how valuable such a chance is? But you’ve rejected it numerous times.)
(Also, divine book, can you please show some worth? You are like a simp that kept giving money to a girl despite being rebuffed countless times.)
“What do you want to do exactly?”
Sun Mo asked.
Swish~
The divine book flew toward Sun Mo and floated in the air. It spun around before flying up and down.
“Was it adjusting its position because it wants Teacher Sun to be able to read it more comfortably?”
Everyone was dumbfounded. This attitude was definitely that of fawning.
Sun Mo didn’t move, and he looked at Wei Ziyou.
“You won’t be able to read the book if you don’t receive its approval. Since you’ve received it, there won’t be any danger.” Wei Ziyou laughed. “You don’t have to be worried.”
“Alright then!”
Sun Mo truly didn’t wish to continue gathering attention like this. Since Wei Ziyou gave him the guarantee, he decided to read it.
The divine book opened. Walnut-sized balls of light floated out of the pages and entered Sun Mo’s glabella. Their speed was so quick to the extent that even great teachers with high cultivation bases couldn’t see it clearly.
Min?”
Sun Mo was shocked. These balls of light transformed into various ferocious beasts the moment they entered his mind. There were bugs, plants, flowers, and birds. Very soon, a huge expanse of nature appeared in his mind.
“So this is the case!”
Sun Mo was finally enlightened.
This book was actually a book on spiritual control, and many spiritual controlling techniques were recorded on it. There were common and ordinary ones and also rare and valuable ones. Moreover, the body of the divine book itself was also a type of spiritual control technique. So, only those who obtained
its approval could open it.
In that case, what was the criteria for its approval?
It was intelligence!
Sun Mo had subdued the second divine book and during this period, his fame had surged explosively in the Jixia Academy. This had proven his intelligence and knowledge.
Someone like this naturally could read it.
“You want those who possess the intelligence to pass down these spiritual controlling techniques, right?”
Sun Mo smiled and recommended his students to the divine book. “You can actually cast your sight on my personal students. This is especially so for Ziqi and Zhiruo. They are very qualified.”
“Ziqi, you guys come here.”
Sun Mo gathered his students.
The divine book cast a glance and felt no interest. But when it ‘looked’ at Lu Zhiruo, it agitatedly started fluttering its pages despite there being no wind in the air.
‘Woosh~
‘The divine book floated before the papaya girl and waited for her to flip it open.
“ah?”
Lu Zhiruo didn’t know what was going on.
“Just open it!”
Sun Mo surveyed the lucky mascot. This ought to be an opportunity for her, right?
It seemed that the papaya girl’s good luck wasn’t just his assumption, but it really existed. In that case, what should he teach her?
“It seems that she has a shocking talent in the art of spiritual control.”
historical
Wei Ziyou was shocked.
After chatting an entire night with Wei Ziyou and being ‘lectured’ by his ‘soon-to-be mother-in-law’, Sun Mo’s tour at the Jixia Academy came to a perfect close.
His seven-day lecture at the Jixia Rostrum, engraving his name in the Myriad Saint Learning Palace, as well as subduing two divine books—all these were legendary performances that made Sun Mo completely suppress all teachers and students in the Jixia Academy’s history.
Although Sun Mo had only completed one portion of his lecture tour, there was already no suspense. His fascinating and perfect lectures had killed all competition.
Sun Mo was none other than the Number One Great Teacher in the Nine Provinces.
In truth, this was indeed the case. In the next year and a half, Sun Mo conducted twelve lectures in twelve major cities with populations over five million each. Every single one of his lectures was packed to the brim.
Because Sun Mo’s fame grew greater and greater, many people were willing to rush from afar to listen to him. And because the distance they had to travel was too far and they were not satisfied with the duration of the lecture, they all hoped Sun Mo could continue speaking for a few more days.
Hence, the original plan of seven days per lecture had been extended. But because the audience was large enough, other than Sun Mo’s fame spreading through the world, he also started a learning craze where everyone got interested in learning spirit runes.
spirit rune technology would surely be a huge source of strength that would stir the world’s development in the future.
When the students saw the spirit particle calculator, spirit rune handgun, and the newly created spirit energy electric lamp, all of them were deeply attracted by this subject.
Although everyone had no idea what the term ‘electric’ was, they could see that this simple metallic lamp actually emitted light that was 1,000 times brighter compared to normal lamps and possessed the capability to drive away darkness and illuminate the night, making night as bright as day. All of them
were stunned.
Concocting alchemy pills could indeed strengthen one’s body and lengthen their lifespan, but what was the point of them continuing to live in a backward world?
In the future, spirit runes would be able to be machine-produced and there would be various spirit rune instruments that make life more convenient for every common household.
Alchemy was once the most popular subject in the Nine Provinces, but right now, the study of spirit runes had exceeded the ‘number two’ study of weaponsmithing and was catching up with alchemy.
Some major characters in the alchemy world felt offended as their benefits were threatened. Hence, they started to suppress the study of spirit runes.
The popularity of the study of spirit runes also far surpassed Sun Mo’s expectations.
In his expectations, scientific cultivation would become mainstream, but the number of people paying attention to that subject was actually not many. However, it was fine as Sun Mo was still young, At most, he could speak in more detail about that in the future.
In any case, there was only a single sentence. His lecture tour through the Nine Provinces was extremely successful!
For the last stop, Sun Mo naturally chose Jinling. After he finished the lecture, Su Taiging, who was waiting at the side, directly handed an 8-stars great teacher emblem to Sun Mo.
Sun Mo had risen two star-ranks in one go. After he became a 7-stars, he immediately participated in the examination and obtained the 8-stars title, creating a brand new record once more.
Sun Mo not only was the youngest 8-stars great teacher, but he had also been the youngest great teacher in almost every star-rank. At the same time, the amount of time he spent in each star-rank was also the shortest, which meant that his speed of climbing the ranks was the quickest.
All the previous records had been broken by Sun Mo.
For future generations, they probably wouldn’t be able to break it even if they wanted to. In fact, they might even feel depressed because this feat was too incredible.
Central Province Academy, in the backyard of the villa.
After Sun Mo finished a round of training in the Grand Universe Formless Divine Art, he sat on the chair and waited for the maid beside him to bring him a cup of fruit juice.
“Mn!”
Sun Mo drank two mouthfuls, but his brows suddenly furrowed. He then rose and walked toward the guest meeting room.
As expected, Gu Xiuxun’s voice rang out soon after.
“Sun Mo, there’s major news.”
In the living room, Gu Xiuxun removed her outer shirt and directly leaned on the sofa, not feeling shy at all. “I’m so thirsty, quickly pour a cup of water for me.”
“What news?”
Sun Mo was curious and poured a cup of fruit juice for Gu Xiuxun. After that, his gaze involuntarily glanced past her chest before sweeping past her long legs.
(Is your dressing not a little too sexy?)
Gu Xiuxun didn’t speak, but she was frowning as she stared at the room. “Why are you not turning on the heater?”
‘Wealthy families in the Nine Provinces would bum a lot of charcoal, and this led to huge waste and also polluted the environment. So, Sun Mo invented a spirit rune warming device that made use of spirit stones as the power source.
It was the size of a small luggage suit, and the Brightness Spirit Rune Sun Mo invented was engraved on it. Once one pressed the ‘on’ button, it would be able to create heat.
“Why would a strong body like mine require the hot air?”
Sun Mo rolled his eyes and sat down beside Gu Xiuxun.
These two years, Sun Mo’s performance was too good. Not only did he obtain too many treasure chests from the system, but he also accumulated plenty of favorable impression points. So, he had purchased many nature fruits and used them to enhance himself. Currently, he was at the eighth level of the
Longevity Realm.
If he worked a little harder, he should be able to step into the Legendary Realm within three years.
“That’s true!”
Gu Xiuxun nodded. After that, her eyes spun around, and she used her elbow to knock Sun Mo. She secretively asked, “How much money do you have now?”
“why?”
Sun Mo indicated for the maid to bring them more drinks.
“Just curious!”
Gu Xiuxun twitched her lips. “Your spirit energy fan and spirit energy heater are extremely popular now and have become one of the most important tools for the rich. Whichever family doesn’t have them cannot be considered wealthy.”
Sun Mo mentally mused. (Maybe I can make something more extravagant?)
“Those who are wealthy know how to enjoy life the most. Your two toys make things very convenient, and they can bring them around no matter where they go. This is especially so for that wind fan. It’s too comfortable when you use it during the summer.”
Gu Xiuxun felt joyful. “You don’t know this, but those ‘friends’ who broke off their relationship with sister An all came looking for her now. Not only do they want your products, but they want a larger version.
“The difficulty of these items lies in creativity and spirit rune. Once more research is done and the basis is developed, any casual seventh-year graduate student who majors in the study of spirit runes will be able to create it.”
Sun Mo was very happy that he could create a world-class product that every household in the world could use to improve their quality of life. This made him feel a sense of pride.
At the very least, his knowledge had produced value.
“know that many spirit runist grandmasters are trying to decipher your spirit runes. After all, the market is too big. As long as they succeed, they will be able to earn buckets.”
Gu Xiuxun mused that it was only a matter of time before Sun Mo became the richest guy in the Nine Provinces.
“However, it’s useless even if they can decipher the spirit runes. They still have to create the alloy!”
Sun Mo smiled. “The metal used to inscribe spirit runes also needs to be heavily researched. Let’s take the heating device as an example. If the metal used isn’t good, they might cause the heating efficiency to drop and there might even be danger.”
“However, there are simply too many people studying spirit runes now.”
Gu Xiuxun was worried that with too many learners, it wouldn’t be easy for them to find a job.
Sun Mo consoled her. “At the very least, those that graduated from our school can earn money to feed their family by creating these two items.”
“Indeed!”
Gu Xiuxun nodded. Cultivation was a very difficult passage. There were simply too few experts who could break the void. Many people were already satisfied if they could reach the Longevity Realm and live for a few decades more.
“Just say it, what major news is there?”
Sun Mo asked with a smile..
