Unparalleled After Ten Consecutive Draws - Chapter 90
Chapter 90: Gaining Insights into Eight Thousand Techniques Within The Stele Forest, Are You Kidding Me
“There are so many cultivation techniques here. Which one of them should we choose?”
“I agree, this is just too troublesome.”
“Sighs, this is too hard.”
“If we have to show results within three days, then it’s not advisable to go for the harder and more advanced cultivation techniques. We can only choose the easier ones.”
“Then let’s go with the low-tier techniques then.”
“Will the complexity of the technique we choose affect the results of this trial? Does that mean the more advanced the technique, the higher our grades will be, and it’ll be the opposite for weaker techniques too?”
“We’d need to choose properly if that’s the case.”
“No matter what, we should make a plan while taking our capabilities into consideration. Remember, we only have three days to do this.”
Inside the stele forest, the cultivators were stressing out on which technique they should gain insights into.
The number of cultivation techniques before them was just too plenty. Besides, there were all sorts of techniques that could be commonly found in the other schools of cultivation as well.
Some of them looked at Chu Kuangren and Lan Yu. Due to how crazy and horrifying their qualifications were, it had created lasting impressions within their minds.
They were curious to find out which cultivation techniques those two would choose.
However, everyone was stunned when they looked over.
Chu Kuangren was standing still with his eyes closed, while Lan Yu was standing beside him unmoved as well. She did not have the slightest intent to gain insights into any of the techniques on the stone tablets at all.
“What’s going on with them?”
“Did both of them decide not to do the trial?”
Everyone was puzzled, but they stopped bothering about them after a while. Now that they were busy with passing the trial, they had no time to care about Chu Kuangren.
Eventually, everyone chose a technique to gain insights on.
Only a few of them were left deliberating as they struggled to make a choice.
While everyone was busy choosing, Chu Kuangren had already wandered off into the sea of Daoist techniques. As his spiritual thoughts spread far and wide, the various techniques inscribed on the stone tablets appeared within the depths of his mind, and one by one, Chu Kuangren proceeded to gain insights into them at a rapid pace.
His Meditational Clarity Trait was utilized to its full extent!
Ten, twenty, thirty, fifty …
A hundred, three hundred, five hundred…
It seemed like all Chu Kuangren had to do was glance upon the techniques once before he would gain insights into them. The whole process took no more than ten seconds.
As he gained insights on more and more techniques, his level of understanding started to deepen, and in turn, the speed at which he gained insights began to increase as well.
Various types of Daoist Rhymes soon started to form and swirl around Chu Kuangren’s body. They include the Five Way Daoist Rhymes namely gold, wood, water, fire, earth, and also the Four Mystic Daoist Rhymes of ground, air, water, and flame.
There was also an extremely sharp Sword-based Daoist Rhyme among the techniques.
Moreover, the majestic palm technique which contained the Daoist Rhyme of rivers and mountains was also one of the techniques there.
There was even the all-changing finger technique and a long-range sword technique which…
Multiple types of Daoist Rhymes and techniques were all swirling around Chu Kuangren’s body. It was so majestic, beautiful, and brilliant like a feast of Daoist techniques.
As the Daoist Rhymes became stronger and denser, multiple Transformations also materialized.
In the void, there were imaginary mountains and rivers, sword Qi everywhere, a massacre, violent winds, raging storms, icicle hails…
The Daoist Rhymes which took form startled the other cultivators who were gaining insights from the stone tablet techniques. They all looked towards Chu Kuangren with shock in their eyes.
“Holy sh*t, what the hell is this?”
“What’s he doing!”
“Why are there so many Daoist Rhymes and Transformations?”
Everyone was astonished yet dumbfounded at the same time.
On the other hand, a brilliant white light radiated from Lan Yu’s body. With a shiny and gorgeous silver-white armor on, her chilling gaze swept through the area as she firmly stood guard.
At that moment, no matter who they were, anyone who dared approach Chu Kuangren would be met with Lan Yu’s most powerful attack.
Not only did the Daoist Rhyme and Transformations that Chu Kuangren emitted, having gained insights into the thousands of techniques, alarm the cultivators inside the stele forest, but it too affected more than half of the area surrounding the Dharma Sect.
“What’s going on, why is a Daoist Rhyme like this here?”
“An assortment of Daoist Rhymes?”
“It’s coming from the stele forest. Did something happen?”
The higher-ups and elders of the Dharma Sect were all concerned and unsure, so they quickly headed to the stele forest to find out what was happening.
At that time outside the stele forest, Su Tianyi and a few other disciples were discussing the current trial. They were wondering how fast it would take this time.
“From what I can see, it’ll take at least one day I guess.”
“I agree. During the previous trials, which include the one that Senior Brother Su took part in, even the fastest one took three hours to complete.”
“Although they were generally common techniques, most cultivators will require a few or even up to ten years to study them if they don’t have a certain level of understanding.”
Su Tianyi and the others continued their discussion.
When it came to cultivation, not only was a person’s mere foundation key, but their understanding played an important part as well.
If there was no understanding, one would require ten days or more to produce results, while a normal person only required one day to achieve the same thing. It meant that those without proper understanding would be limited in what they could achieve in the end.
“Huh? Something’s happening inside.”
Su Tianyi’s expression suddenly changed into a frown.
Just when the few of them were surprised, a heavy surge of Daoist Rhyme erupted from within the stele forest and multiple Transformations started to form in the surrounding void.
“My… My god, what in the world is happening?”
“What’s happening inside there?”
Su Tianyi and the others rushed into the stele forest.
Just when they were about to set foot in it, the higher-ups and elders from the Dharma Sect had arrived too.
Everyone looked at each other when they saw Chu Kuangren who was under the Transformation.
“Brother Su, what is going on here?” One of the elders looked at Su Tianyi and asked curiously.
Su Tianyi shook his head. “Elder, I’m not sure as well. This person is one of the disciples who’s taking the recruitment trial. His qualification was so outstanding that even the stone test pillar could not measure it.”
At that, a few of the elders became bewildered.
“You mention that he’s one of the disciples taking the trial?” That time, an old man who was walking forward from the crowd asked with a very weird tone.
“Yes.”
“That’s impossible.” That old man laughed as he shook his head.
“Do you know who he is, elder?”
“Yes, I do. Even if you haven’t met him before, I’m sure you’ve all heard his name before. His name… is Chu Kuangren!” said that old man.
He had met Chu Kuangren before during the exploration to the Luminous Moon Secret Realm. He had also heard the news about Chu Kuangren visiting the various great orthodoxies. So regarding his sudden appearance here, the elder was a little shocked but he was not completely surprised.
‘Chu Kuangren…’
The moment those words came out, everyone at the scene gasped.
“So he’s Chu Kuangren!”
“My god, I’ve finally met Chu Kuangren.”
“Possessing such a fairy-like appearance, the rumors about Chu Kuangren are true. I can’t believe that’s really him.”
If one were to ask who was the most renowned person in the Azure Dragon Domain, who could it be?
Undoubtedly, that person would be the Black Heaven Sect’s Elder Senior Brother, Chu Kuangren!
‘Declaring war on the world, killing an Honorable Supreme, slaying a sage, becoming the Azure Dynasty’s Royal Princess’s fiancé, becoming the new White Lotus Bachelor Sage, and even winning against the Taixu Temple Lord in a mental sparring match…’
Any of those accomplishments were already shocking enough for everyone, not to mention every single accomplishment was achieved by a single person.
Su Tianyi was full of shock. “That guy is Chu Kuangren?”
“Yes, that’s him.” Sure of himself, the elder nodded.
“Then what’s he doing now?”
The old man then cautiously observed Chu Kuangren for a while. Immediately after, the old man was so astonished that his body trembled. “He’s trying to gain insights into the techniques inscribed in the stele forest! Not just one or two of them, but all of the techniques in here!”
“How’s this possible?”
The moment he said that, everyone present thought it was unbelievable.
‘How many techniques are there in the stele forest?’
‘At least eight thousand!’
‘Even the Dharma Sect’s Master himself may not know half of the techniques in this stele forest, yet you’re telling me that Chu Kuangren is trying to gain insights into every single one of them here?’
‘Such a thing is simply preposterous!’
‘No one will even believe this if we tell them!’
“Elder, are you messing with us?”
