Fantasy: I Can Instantly Comprehend Everything-Chapter 52 - The Cause of the Bottleneck

Zhou Yun and Su Lingyun’s eyes met, and they were frozen on the spot.

A few seconds later, the two of them spoke at the same time.

“I didn’t mean to peek!”

“I didn’t come out on purpose!”

The two of them looked at each other at the same time. Then, the somewhat stagnant atmosphere was washed away, and Zhou Yun heaved a sigh of relief.

“Tell me, what’s up?” Zhou Yun walked over and sat down next to Su Lingyun. He then soaked his feet in the extremely precious spiritual spring.

“Hey! You’re actually using the spiritual spring to soak your feet?” Su Lingyun was dumbfounded. Then, she quickly reached out and covered her face.

Blergh! f𝔯ee𝘸𝘦𝚋𝒏oѵ𝐞l.c𝒐𝓂

“Tsk.” Zhou Yun looked at Su Lingyun who was crazily vomiting, then turned his head to look at the moonlight in the sky. He felt that he should have continued to cultivate and not come to the spiritual spring.

Why was it that Su Lingyun was so different from the mature, steady, and gentle Su Wanyi, even though they both had the same surname and looked 90% similar?

A few minutes later, Su Lingyun, with clear liquid dripping from her mouth, cried angrily at Zhou Yun, “Detestable b*stard! Do you know how precious the spiritual spring is and how many people covet it? Instead of using such a good resource for cultivation, you used it to soak your feet!”

“Ah, I remember the first day I came here to cultivate, I even jumped in and soaked for half a day.” Zhou Yun laughed as he spoke. That was the first time he had experienced the joy of cultivation without a lack of spiritual energy.

“Oh! How can you be like this?” Su Lingyun almost couldn’t hold back her tears. She covered her mouth with one hand and pointed at Zhou Yun with the other trembling hand.

“Hey, tell me, what did you do with the spiritual spring?” Zhou Yun already wanted to leave. He really couldn’t bear to see Su Lingyun’s bitter face.

If he could, he would rather see Qiao’er. If he really couldn’t, Su Wanyi would do.

What crime had he committed that he would watch a young girl puke in pain in the middle of the night for a top-level foundation establishment mission?

“I … I used it to deliver wine.” Su Lingyun half-lay on the ground, panting as she said, “When I was in seclusion, I didn’t have any wine at all. I could only keep cultivating. It’s been a long time since I’ve had a chance to drink while cultivating my spiritual Qi.”

Su Lingyun sat up and leaned against the spiritual sword. She had already lost all will to live.

“After observing your cultivation for the past few days, I specially chose to drink at this time when you wouldn’t be around. If it’s possible, I really hope I can return to being the me who doesn’t know anything.” Su Lingyun covered her ears with both hands and made a childish gesture, which was different from Su Wanyi’s.

She continued, “Forget it. I’ll just treat it as an unlucky stroke of luck. What about you? Why are you here? Aren’t you still practicing the sword control technique?”

Su Lingyun looked at Zhou Yun. She had not forgotten the embarrassing incident that day. “Could it be that the genius who reached the moderate stage of the sword control technique in one day encountered a bottleneck?” she said sarcastically.

At the moment, Su Lingyun was too lazy to put on the same gentle smile as Su Wanyi in front of Zhou Yun.

Having long ruined her image with so many embarrassing events, Su Lingyun became more open-minded in front of Zhou Yun.

“Yes, I have indeed reached a bottleneck.” Zhou Yun looked at Su Lingyun’s back, which was leaning on a spiritual sword.

Zhou Yun could tell how precious the spiritual sword was just by looking at its appearance.

Only the few elder-tier cultivators in Spirit Valley could choose a suitable disciple to inherit their legacy, not to mention that Su Lingyun was Ling Qingyun’s direct disciple.

Zhou Yun was a little curious. Besides being the direct disciple of the sect leader Ling Qingyun, was Su Lingyun also an expert in the sword?

After all, he had obviously reached a bottleneck in cultivation.

“Haha, young man.” Su Lingyun crossed her arms and puffed out her chest, looking up with pride. “Do you want to seek guidance from me, the direct disciple of the sect leader?”

“Yes, please enlighten me,” Zhou Yun answered directly. He would not refuse to become stronger just because of pride.

Earlier, when he had just entered the Spirit Valley, in order to speed up his cultivation, Zhou Yun had caught hold of an elder and asked him many questions, causing the elder to be terrified whenever he saw him.

Zhou Yun paid no attention to Su Lingyun’s arrogance.

If she was putting on airs, it meant that she was the real deal.

“Eh?” Su Lingyun looked at Zhou Yun in disbelief. “You didn’t even hesitate for a moment. For the sake of increasing your strength, you suppressed your pride and lowered yourself before me. Do they call this the ignorance of a young man?”

“Why?” In order to become stronger, Zhou Yun couldn’t care less about things like dignity.

“Ha! I really can’t help but like you.” Su Lingyun leaned against the spiritual sword and pointed at the sky with a stoic face. “Come on, your spiritual power has recovered a lot. Use the sword control technique in front of me and let me help you find the reason for your bottleneck.”

Zhou Yun took out his spiritual sword.

“Wait.” When Su Lingyun saw Zhou Yun’s spiritual sword, she jumped up with a start.

“What’s wrong?” Zhou Yun asked doubtfully. Could it be that there was something wrong with him? But he had not used the sword control technique yet.

“Nothing! You can continue.” Su Lingyun slowly leaned back and looked at Zhou Yun with a strange expression.

Zhou Yun didn’t mind as Su Lingyun was naturally weird.

He attached his spiritual energy to the spiritual sword and formed a seal with his fingers, slowly activating the spiritual sword.

“Oo.” Su Lingyun’s mouth opened into an “O” shape. When she saw Zhou Yun looking at her, she immediately covered her mouth. Su Lingqun then quickly waved her hand to signal Zhou Yun to continue.

Zhou Yun used the sword control technique to control the spiritual sword, making it assume various positions in the air. He then adjusted the sword’s movement speed. The entire spiritual sword was like a flying bird that could stop at will, moving nimbly in the air.

Zhou Yun had no problem controlling the flying sword in the sky, but he felt that he might be undergoing a different training method than he wished for.

After all, the young girl at the side constantly made strange exclamations.

“You, if you have anything to say, say it.” Zhou Yun couldn’t stand the exclamations every time he used the sword control technique any longer.

Could it be that his control was so bad that it was shocking?

But Zhou Yun was very confident that he had mastered the moderate stage of the sword control technique in one day.

“A-Ah, it’s not what you think. I-It’s just, hahahaha…” Su Lingyun stammered and finally turned her head.

“If you don’t give me an explanation, I’ll announce to the entire Spirit Valley that Su Lingyun, the direct disciple of the sect master, stole my bathwater!” Zhou Yun felt his head heating up. Having realized that Su Lingyun was really out of line, he could only threaten her.

“Wait! Don’t!” Su Lingyun grabbed Zhou Yun’s shoulders and said, “I just can’t think of any euphemistic words to describe it.

“Horrible?” Zhou Yun asked.

“Yes, it’s very bad,” Su Lingyun answered seriously.

“My sword control technique is horrible?” Zhou Yun asked again.

“That’s not it.” Su Lingyun let go and scratched her head.

“How did you manage to control a piece of scrap metal so well? My God, being too talented is actually disgusting. There’s actually someone who can really control a piece of broken metal that contains only a few traces of spiritual energy to fly all over the sky.” Su Lingyun hugged her stomach and laughed crazily.

“Bathwater.” Zhou Yun’s face turned cold. He had to discipline Su Lingyun.

“Junior Brother Zhou, we hit it off the first time we met. I really can’t help but want to give you a new flying sword.” Su Lingyun stopped laughing and looked at Zhou Yun.

Zhou Yun paused and narrowed his eyes before commenting, “Sure.”
