Chapter 69 -69 Simple Mode_1

Two little poisonous bees, fluttering among the flowers.

Flying left, then flying right.

This is a vast valley, concealing thickets, surrounded by green water; an untouched lush wilderness.

Suddenly, a colourful streak emerged from the stream, its sparkles amassing into a single point, emitting an unusual fragrance. The surrounding bees were instantly drawn to the brilliance, gathering and hovering around it.

The glimmers moved slowly, travelling alongside the river, bypassing the valley, moving from the stream into the river, eventually reaching a flat riverbed.

Whoosh——

The glimmers vanished suddenly, leaving the bees without guidance, buzzing at the same spot for a while before dispersing. The abundant flowers and plants affected where they landed.

“Hoo…”

Underwater, a giant rainbow koi gradually sank, returning to the sandpit at the bottom.

Another slightly smaller rainbow koi immediately moved close, “Sister, you’ve worked hard! I must diligently cultivate, strive to develop magical power as early as possible to share your burden.”

The older fish sighed: “A shame that my power is so limited, I can only do trivial things…”

The younger fish hurriedly added: “Sister, you are already very magical!”

The older fish seemed a little weary, her beautiful body rocking with the waves: “Let’s hope that the big bully will stop coming.”

“Hmm…” the little fish swam, “I’ll go to observe…”

It swung its body to rise to the surface of the water, but as soon as it looked up, it saw the face of the river filled with the shadows of swords, severing the bees that its sister had painstakingly led there.

“Sister…” the voice of the little fish carried a sob, “Not only did he come back, but he’s also coming earlier and earlier!”

…

Like every other day, Chu Liang finished off the bees with a practiced ease, glancing around without noticing the string of angry bubbles on the water’s surface.

After that, he returned to Shu Mountain.

Yunhua Town was close to Shu Mountain, it was only a short while before he had reached Pagoda Peak.

Senior Sister Jiang had asked him to meet her there.

Upon entering the Water Curtain Cave, a Baize cub cheerfully sprang to his feet, rubbing its big head against him.

“It’s been a while.” Chu Liang affectionately petted its neck before continuing further inside.

Jiang Xiaobai was today adorned in a blue dress, her figure lithe and graceful. On his arrival, she rose to welcome him, her tall and slim figure apparent.

“I’ve got to leave the mountain for a mission later. It might take a while, so I wanted to check on your Talisman Sword Technique’s progress.” Jiang Xiaobai said.

Disciples of her level naturally didn’t have the luxury of choosing tasks as they pleased, like Chu Liang did. These tasks were assigned by the mountain gate, so her sudden departure was normal.

“Sister, I’m overwhelmed by your concern for my cultivation.” Chu Liang answered with a smile.

“Alright then. Despite your sweet talk, when I helped you sell your fruit tea, despite hearing how your business is booming across the Shu Mountain Sect, I didn’t even see you share your profits with me.” Jiang Xiaobai sneered at him.

“My humble business can’t be possibly up to your standards, sister,” Chu Liang responded immediately.

“Hmph.” Jiang Xiaobai snorted lightly. Without wasting any more words she asked, “I made you study the Dao of Talisman True Meaning by yourself and practice sword techniques, how’s that coming along?”

Chu Liang answered honestly, “The progress is slow.”

“Oh?” Jiang Xiaobai gave a stern look, “It’s already been seven days. If there is no progress, I will be upset.”

Chu Liang said, “The Dao of Talisman is vast and profound. My understanding after these few days merely touches the surface. The difficulty in practicing the sword technique is even more immense, and I have only grasped a little.”

“This can be expected. You practice first, and let me see how to guide you,” Jiang Xiaobai nodded.

Following her words, Chu Liang retreated a few steps to space within the cave. He held the Flying Sword, focused on the memory of the sword techniques.

“Rise!”

With his command, raising his finger upwards, the Flying Sword chinked, lifting into mid-air.

Talisman Sword Technique!

Swish, swish, swish, swish, swish…

With a change in his finger movements, the Flying Sword emitted a consecutive whooshing sound in the air. The silver light swiftly formed into a Rune. The moment his fingertip pointed forward, that Rune, accompanied by Sword Qi, roared as it flew out.

Bang——

A trail of Sword Qi, dragging a long tail of fire, struck the ground ahead like a meteor, creating a large pit.

The power was astonishingly greater than normal Sword Control Techniques.

“Hmm…”

Jiang Xiaobai looked at the scene before her, her eyebrows slightly furrowed.

You call this a slight grasp?

Being able to combine Rune and Sword Qi, flowing like a cloud, releasing a complete sword technique.

Isn’t this clearly a sign of mastery?

And he said his progress was slow. Who’s he trying to fool? Isn’t this what they call men’s lies?

But it’s only been a few days?!

No matter what, this man is progressing too fast, right?

Even she, who was already quite proficient in Dao of Talisman back in the day, took twelve days to succeed. And he, this…

Wait a minute.

Doesn’t his current proficiency necessarily mean he got this far only today? Could it be possible that he mastered it in under seven days?

Chu Liang sheathed his sword. Seeing Jiang Xiaobai deep in thought and frowning, he thought she was dissatisfied with his own cultivation progress. In terms of speed, he should be considered fast and his execution of sword techniques was also quite flawless.

What else was not perfect enough?

So, he hesitated and then said: “I reached this level of cultivation four days ago. Afterwards, my progress slowed down. It’s mainly because my understanding of the Dao of Talisman is not deep enough. I can only use the Rune of Five Elements Fire with my Flying Sword to perform a Double Fire Rune Sword at most, but not every attempt is successful…”

“However, I’ve been practicing the Wind Rune lately and have already succeeded several times. I believe in a couple more days, I’ll be able to master the Wind Fire Double Rune Sword, increasing my power significantly…”

“Senior Sister, didn’t you give me a month’s time earlier? I believe that by then, the Runes I’ll master won’t just be these…”

He spoke tentatively, somewhat worried that Jiang Xiaobai might suspect him of being lazy and stop teaching him.

However, every word he said was like an arrow piercing Jiang Xiaobai’s Taoist heart.

Her frown deepened.

After a moment, Jiang Xiaobai raised her hand: “Enough, stop talking for now.”

She was actually thinking of giving Chu Liang some pointers just now.

Pointers on what?

She only informed him about the sword technique. Yet, he managed to deduce the entire process on his own. As long as he continued practicing along these lines, as his cultivation increases, it’s only a matter of time before he mastered the Ten Rune Sword, Hundred Rune Sword and so on.

It seemed like even the most complex Talisman Sword Technique posed no difficulty to him – he’d practice it once he got hold of it, he’d master it once he practiced it, and he’d use it once he mastered it…

Why does it feel like this person is cultivating in easy mode?

This was the first time in her life Jiang Xiaobai had felt such a disparity due to the difference in talent. In the past, she was always the one others looked up to.

However, ever since she met Chu Liang, she was the one who got hit.

“Senior Sister?” Chu Liang called out to her softly.

Jiang Xiaobai’s gaze focused, then she looked at Chu Liang and said seriously:

“Let me make this clear. Once you start calling me Senior Sister, you have to always call me Senior Sister, even if one day you become stronger than me, you still have to dutifully call me Senior Sister! Got it?!”
