Martial Research Master

Chapter 253



253 ACCEPTING A MASTER

Thunder academy was a place whose top cultivators were way above Li Meng’s imagination. He wanted to utilize the resources here too and gain strength as fast as possible. His beliefs were to dominate the world, and it required the influx of a huge number of resources into the pit.

Having a master who had a huge influence of the academy was going to help out a lot, but he didn’t want it to be the baseline for accepting a master. The old man was a mysterious figure who had an absurd character.

“Why do you choose me to be your disciple?”

“I will be frank with you boy. I have watched your whole performance and appreciate your talent quite well. You are also the only guy in the whole group who is compatible with my style of cultivation.” The old man replied.

“What style would that be?” Li Meng was inquisitive.

“I too am a dual body and Qi type cultivator just like you.” The old man said.

“I guess everyone is practicing refining arts or something else. Thunder-god’s body is one of the core arts of the academy while still being a body refining art.”

“I am not talking about body reinforcing arts, I am talking about body cultivation.”

“I don’t know what the senior is talking about.” Li Meng tried to deny it.

.....

“I have opened up all the meridians and all the acupoints too. I am currently in the channel tempering realm.” Li Meng literally backed off with a surprise. It is the first time he met an actual person who managed to surpass the acupoints realm.

“You don’t need to act surprised, boy. When you use meridians and acupoints, a fellow body cultivator can easily identify it. Especially when I am someone who is in a higher realm than you.”

“You actually managed to surpass the realm of acupoint opening and get into the Channel Tempering realm. I have to commend the senior’s potential and talent for BODY CULTIVATION.”

“I actually managed to get my hands on an art which helped me reach this stage.” The old man said in a gleeful tone.

Li Meng couldn’t believe his ears for a second. An actual art which helps in body cultivation. This was like a death desire of Li meng for a long time. The Pill-sword saint did talk about a particular way like that, but he didn’t confirm on an art.

“You actually managed to get your hands on a proper art to cultivate your body.”

“Well, I am an accomplished body cultivator and I am about to reach the end of the Channel Tempering realm. I would even love to pass it on to my disciples, but unfortunately, there isn’t anyone among them who cultivates in the body.” The old man said in an indicative tone.

Li Meng had to appreciate the shamelessness of this old man. He was trying to entice him with bait. The offer was quite enticing.

“I want my master to be quite strong.” Li Meng spoke.

“Your master is the strongest of the bunch. Is that good enough?” The old man was boasting shamelessly.

“Fine, I give up. I greet the master.” Li Meng kowtowed. The old man simply showed a grim smile.

......................

The old man and Li Meng finished up the disciple acceptance ceremony.

“Can I have the art for my induction gift?” Li Meng said in a gleeful tone.

“Your shamelessness actually suits my character.” The old man spoke up “But you are not getting it at the moment. I would like to see the true realm of your body cultivation.”

“I have nearly opened up all my acupoints.” Li Meng spoke up. The old man simply stared at Li meng for a second.

“You managed to open most of your acupoints while being in the Qi general realm. How did you manage it?”

“I experimented with all the data I could get my hands on.”

“You managed to get to this level by just experimenting with the ancient texts. I am impressed with your achievements. What are your goals for the king’s realm?”

“I am preparing for that realm.”

“I am referring to your goals about which laws are you going to establish. Are there going to be multiple Heavenly laws?”

“I am thinking of trying something else out.” Li Meng replied in a calm tone.

The old man looked at him with a serious glance. After a moment he opened his mouth and a strange set of words came out.

“You are trying to risk your future for something which hasn’t even being proved to be true yet.” The old man said in an angry tone.

“What are you talking about Master?”

“I am talking about you trying to establish the laws in that taboo realm, or even imaginary.”

Li Meng’s expression changed once again. What is the old man trying to talk about?

“Thunder Academy’s history is still kind of unfathomable to you. Do you know that our ancestors have already left this world? I managed to get my hands on their records. I know that my disciple thinks of himself to be quite wise, but I am his master. I know about the realm above heavenly laws.”

Li Meng was spellbound. Just how many secrets of this world did the old man know. He was a body cultivator in the Channel Tempering Realm and even someone who knew the realm above heavenly laws.

“I am trying to achieve that feat.”

“What preparations were you talking about earlier.” The old man wanted to know about the path Li meng was going to take. That realm was something which was described as unachievable by their ancestors. It’s a taboo realm. Many geniuses had tried to achieve that taboo realm in this passage of time, but there were no records of anyone ever being successful.

“I have planned out the passage just like any other cultivator would do. I am piling up Qi and resources for my break-through.”

“Don’t try to act cocky in front of me brat. You know exactly what I am talking about. What I really wanted to know was your approach to that path. There are multiple records of those who have tried this in the past, all of them failing. I thought of giving them to you, but it looks like you have already found a way.”

“I am desperate in need of such scriptures.” Li Meng directly apologized to the old man. “I had many theories over time and I think the first way to go was body cultivation. I want to open up all my acupoints before I make the break-through.”

“That is one of the popular theories. What else?” The old man had no change in expression from the beginning. He was just naturally going with the flow.

“I was thinking about other pathways, but have not achieved any results.”

“Did you ever think about an energy back-up which would help propel your figure during the break-through?” The old man asked. Li Meng got another surprise as this was what the Keeper was talking about too.

“How does master propose we do that?”

“With the help of the meridians and acupoints. They are going to be the first back-up. Before breaking-through you just need to fill up your body to its extreme limits, where you will die by another drop of energy being injected in you.” This was a fabulous path of thought. Li Meng made up his mind to try it out.

“The next stage is using formations. We could use formations which are able to hold and project all the types of energy which you are going to use to make laws with. You could use that energy as a boost too.”

The old man threw a ring at Li Meng. “These are some of the resources for your preparation. You could use them to train until you reach the very peak of Qi general. I will start making preparations for the break-through. It’s best if you practice the second volume of the lightning-devil body before you break-through. It improves the chances to connect with Thunder law by a large extent.”

“Do you have any advice for the other laws?”

“I don’t.” The old man said in a grim tone. He then vanished from the place and left Li meng alone in his cultivation cave, pondering over the strange set of information he had just got his hands on. The scriptures from the old man could really help to forge his path.

...............

Some other place within the academy-

A young man was sitting in the middle of a pool. If one was to watch the scene carefully, they could notice that the pool was constituted of sparks and thunder rather than water. It was so condensed that it turned into liquid, covering the young man up.

This was none other than the Thunder-child. He was said to be the most talented cultivator to have ever appeared within the academy before today. A new candidate just swooped in and stole his title.

“When are you exiting your seclusion?” An old voice sounded out loud.

“It will be soon, master. I have almost reached the peak.” The room was filled with pin-drop silence after that.
