In just two months’ time, Jun Changxiao comprehended the Nine Dragons Splitting Palm through his own efforts.
Although he had only just glimpsed the threshold, undeniably, without item assistance, his talent and comprehension were still very strong, worthy of the title ‘Martial Technique Master.’
“Just this much time!”
He Wudi said in shock: “Inconceivable!”
Recalling the past when he cultivated the Nine Dragons Splitting Palm, he spent several hundred years.
Ah.
Truly worthy of being the successor to the sect created by Senior Seven Profound!
At that moment, as the leader of the three-person imagination group, He Wudi’s admiration for Jun Changxiao flowed like an endless river.
“Sect Master!”
Su Xiaomo rubbed her hands together, saying: “Can we cultivate such a powerful martial technique?”
“Of course.”
Jun Changxiao said: “One copy per person.”
Hearing his secret manual being defined as a public martial technique, He Wudi puffed out his chest, displaying an expression of pride and honor.
That very day.
Jun Changxiao copied over a hundred thousand copies of the Nine Dragons Splitting Palm, then distributed them to the disciples one by one.
This kind of high-level martial technique from the Land of Eternal Life, with one copy per person in the Eternal Sect, was simply somewhat insane.
However.
Whether they could cultivate it successfully still depended on themselves.
“Creak!”
Ye Xingchen leaned back against the door, looking down at the Nine Dragons Splitting Palm in his hands, his expression growing more and more excited.
Having personally witnessed He Wudi display it, having personally witnessed it instantly kill an extremely powerful BOSS, he naturally yearned greatly for this kind of martial technique.
Night Emperor was very proud.
He never believed his talent would be weaker than He Wudi’s. The other party could be so dominant, it must be due to martial technique bonuses.
Indeed.
In terms of current cultivation realm, both were at peak Truth-Seeking Realm.
If they had to compete, it could only be through martial techniques and equipment.
“Wrong! Wrong!”
Ye Xingchen began comprehending the Nine Dragons Splitting Palm, and soon discovered this martial technique was completely different from what he had encountered before, even… extremely mysterious and unfathomable!
There was difficulty.
There was also challenge!
Night Emperor’s eyes became fervent.
He liked challenges, he liked excitement.
However, after walking out of his room at daybreak and looking up at the sky, his heart roared helplessly: “Too difficult!”
Being able to make Jun Changxiao comprehend for over two months and only just glimpse the threshold was enough to explain how difficult the Nine Dragons Splitting Palm was to cultivate. The disciples hadn’t used Insight Talismans, so…
Over the next few days.
He successively saw Li Qingyang and others passing by listlessly, as if they had lost their souls.
They had been continuously comprehending the Nine Dragons Splitting Palm, comprehending until their heads ached and split, but still had no gains whatsoever, becoming like this.
Simply put.
Too mentally draining, too physically draining.
“Sect Master.”
He Wudi said: “Although Eternal Realm’s heaven and earth attributes can drive the Nine Dragons Splitting Palm, ultimately they cannot perfectly match it. Cultivating it is extraordinarily difficult. I hope you will instruct fellow sect members to do what they can and not waste too much time on impossible tasks.”
“Wudi.”
Jun Changxiao said meaningfully: “The more impossible something is to accomplish, the more we must conquer it. This is the spirit of my Eternal Sect.”
That’s right.
The Nine Dragons Splitting Palm was very difficult.
But choosing to give up for this reason would only produce the inertia of not thinking progressively.
“In the path of martial dao, it’s like rowing upstream—not advancing means retreating.” Jun Changxiao said.
“…”
He Wudi said: “The Sect Master speaks reasonably.”
He also began reflecting on himself, because after joining the Eternal Sect, with various resources supplied, he gradually developed a mentality of having clothes come when stretching out his hands and food come when opening his mouth, which was absolutely unacceptable.
…
The disciples found cultivating the Nine Dragons Splitting Palm extremely difficult, but no one chose to give up. They still worked hard to study it, even reaching the point of forgetting to eat and sleep.
Of course.
Li Qingyang, Xiao Zuiji and the others were stuck at peak Truth-Seeking Realm, so they had plenty of time to comprehend.
Most of the inner and outer sect disciples, while comprehending the Nine Dragons Splitting Palm, didn’t forget to cultivate other martial dao and improve their own realms.
To be precise.
He Wudi’s worries were excessive.
The sect members’ self-discipline was far stronger than imagined.
Jun Changxiao, when he had free time, would also come to the Martial Instruction Hall, explaining their doubts with his own cultivation experience. This could be called the first time this sect master taught disciples without relying on Insight Talismans.
“Ding! Congratulations to the host for completing the hidden mission [Tireless in Teaching], reward 50 contribution points.”
After going to the Martial Instruction Hall for several consecutive days, a notification sound rang in his ears.
“Only giving 50 contribution points?” Jun Changxiao was speechless.
The system sharply criticized: “This is clearly an early-stage mission, yet it’s almost the ending and you’ve just completed it. Shouldn’t the host reflect on that?”
…
Under Jun Changxiao’s teaching, many disciples benefited greatly. Although they couldn’t immediately comprehend the Nine Dragons Splitting Palm, at least they could avoid many detours, laying the groundwork for future universal cultivation success.
Of course.
There was another martial technique—Heaven and Earth Transform to Nothing.
Jun Changxiao sat in his study, turning to the first page of the secret manual. Seeing the record that this technique, when cultivated to great completion, could transform heaven and earth to nothing, he exclaimed in shock: “This terrifying?”
“After all, it’s a martial technique from a higher level.” The system said: “Just take the host’s Heaven-Crossing Palm Seal for example—placed in the Lower Realm, it would also be a god-level technique that destroys heaven and earth.”
“Makes sense.”
Jun Changxiao said: “I really hope to enter the Land of Eternal Life and witness just how powerful the martial artists there are.”
He was the Eternal Sect’s sect master, and also a martial artist, so naturally he yearned for higher mysteries.
“Work hard.”
“Keep going!”
…
“Too difficult!”
Several days later, Jun Changxiao lay on the bed, his face displaying despair.
The Nine Dragons Splitting Palm was already very difficult, but Heaven and Earth Transform to Nothing was even more difficult. Cultivating it up to now, he didn’t have even the slightest bit of comprehension, as if reading a wordless heavenly book.
“Forget it, forget it.”
Jun Changxiao put away the secret manual, saying: “Let’s hurry on our way first.”
The system was speechless: “In the path of martial dao, it’s like rowing upstream—not advancing means retreating was said to the disciples, but when it comes to him, he gives up at the first setback.”
Jun Changxiao didn’t distribute Heaven and Earth Transform to Nothing to the disciples, because everyone was currently fully studying the Nine Dragons Splitting Palm and didn’t have time to cultivate another profound martial technique.
“Beep!”
“Only two days’ journey from Mountain Sea Realm.”
The notification sound came to his ears, and Jun Changxiao’s face revealed a smile.
Brother!
Big brother is coming to find you!
After we meet, we won’t leave until we’re drunk!
…
“Whoosh!”
The Eternal sailed through the universe, and in the region it was heading toward, a large-scale dimension gradually appeared in view.
According to the map marker, this was Mountain Sea Realm.
Jun Changxiao stood in the cockpit, placing his hand by his ear. After quietly listening for a while, he said: “I heard my brother calling me.”
“…”
The system said: “Bomb man is about to arrive.”
“Whoosh!”
The Eternal suddenly accelerated, dragging blazing light as it merged into Mountain Sea Realm, finally hovering in the sky.
Brother!
I’ve arrived!
“Whoosh—”
Just at this moment, blade light suddenly shot up from below, piercing through the ship’s hull at an extremely sharp speed.
“Crack!”
Jun Changxiao hurriedly looked down, discovering the floor beneath his feet first showed a minute crack, then spread infinitely left and right and began shattering. He clutched his head in despair, saying: “My ship…”
“Crack crack crack!”
The Eternal split into two halves and began free-falling.
“Hmph.”
Gu Tianxing hovered in mid-air, his right-hand woodcutting axe flashing with luster, his gaze cold as he said: “You Star Spirit Realm people actually dare to come harass us again.”
