The Day the World Is Destroyed or Reborn
After the Flamefree City incident, Xiao Ran became a top talent of the Dao Alliance. He took his Master on a honeymoon, and people sent him money and treasures every day. He suddenly reached the pinnacle of his life, and his Filial Piety Points soared to over a thousand.
With his Filial Piety Points increasing rapidly, Xiao Ran spent it without hesitation.
Although the Foundation Establishment Cultivation Level package is priced exorbitantly, if one day in the future I can truly trigger my Master's temper, my Filial Piety Points might explode, or my filial piety might change, and the system might even evolve again...
The only certainty now is that it's impossible to advance to Foundation Establishment in the short term.
I want to improve my combat effectiveness.
First, we can only start with the Cultivation Method.
Second, we should study how filial piety deteriorates, and try to find and trigger a switch on the Master that could cause the Filial Piety Points to explode.
Xiao Ran decided to take a two-pronged approach, focusing on both aspects and ensuring both are strong.
First, see if there are any suitable Cultivation Method.
After browsing through the system Shop, Xiao Ran found two Yellow-tier Cultivation Method that cost only 1,000 Filial Piety Points and were very suitable for him.
[Limitless Combo: Yellow-tier Cultivation Method. This Cultivation Method allows you to unleash a dazzling Limitless Combo within a certain timeframe, stunning your opponent. The combo's limit and the duration of the stun are affected by the enemy's strength and the amount of Spiritual Power consumed by the user. Price: 1000 Filial Piety Points.]
[Formless Stealth: Yellow-tier Cultivation Method. This Cultivation Method allows the host to achieve extreme invisibility without using Spiritual Power. Because Spiritual Power cannot be used while invisible, it consumes a great deal of energy from the host's physical body. The higher the level of stealth, the greater the consumption of energy from the host's physical body. Price: 1000 Filial Piety Points.]
Xiao Ran wanted both of them.
The first Limitless Combo. If combined with Serendipitous Critical Strike, once the combo is executed, it's no longer Serendipitous Critical Strike, but rather critical hits that happen at will.
Secondly, the Formless Stealth requires not consuming Spiritual Power, but only physical energy, in order to achieve the ultimate stealth. Xiao Ran's physical body is very strong, and he can also merge with the natural world, so he consumes even less energy when stealthily moving.
Although Xiao Ran dislikes ambushes, he enjoys spying... drawing, which is a boon for doujinshi artists.
These two Cultivation Method were almost tailor-made for him.
With only 1000 Filial Piety Points, which one should I buy first? Upon closer inspection, Xiao Ran's defense is very strong, giving him enough time to unleash multiple critical hits, making the need for Limitless Combo less urgent.
The ability to stealthily Formless Stealth is incredibly powerful. It's perfect for intimidation masters, escaping from the battlefield, conducting stealthy investigations, using feints, and engaging in petty theft... It's an essential method for home and travel, as well as for murder and silencing witnesses.
It's definitely not for spying! "Purchasing the Formless Stealth!"
[Congratulations, host, you have learned the Yellow-tier Cultivation Method: Formless Stealth! (Consumes 1000 Filial Piety Points, 24 Filial Piety Points Remaining)]
Xiao Ran's mind went blank for a moment, and he was instantly elevated.
In an instant, his Sea of Consciousness became as clear as the starry sky.
Soon, he felt lightheaded.
Initiate Formless Stealth immediately.
Xiao Ran seemed unaware of his own existence, entering a state of self-forgetfulness, becoming an insignificant figure in the Cultivation World.
He can bathe without making a ripple, speak without making a sound, walk without leaving a footprint, and move like a ghost...
I just feel very tired.
The nutrition is inadequate.
He immediately activated the first-level Art of Resonance, merging his body with the heavens and earth and the natural way of the Dao, reducing the consumption of his physical body, and his body felt much lighter.
Why aren't they out yet?
"I'm out."
Xiao Ran finished dressing and stood a foot away from his Master, saying, "We can't get any closer, or we'll crash into the mountain."
Seeing that Xiao Ran didn't respond, Lingzhou Yue turned her head to look at the Bamboo Forest, her sword-like eyebrows suddenly furrowing slightly.
She didn't know when it started, but she suddenly couldn't sense Xiao Ran's presence anymore.
This is different from before! In the past, Xiao Ran Enter Samadhi a meditative state using the Art of Resonance, which gave her a sense of being one with nature, making it easy to overlook his presence. However, as long as she calmed her mind and opened her spiritual sense, she could still see him.
Even now, with her divine sense at its sharpest, she still couldn't find Xiao Ran in the Bamboo Forest.
Play hide-and-seek with me?
Or was he arrested by someone?
Lingzhou Yue rushed straight to the edge of the hot spring pool, but couldn't find Xiao Ran.
They searched the bamboo Bamboo Forest from top to bottom, but still couldn't find him.
Lingzhou Yue was furious.
"The person who could secretly kidnap my apprentice right in front of me hasn't been born yet, so you bastard must be playing hide-and-seek!"
Xiao Ran stood a foot behind his Master, no closer.
He deliberately raised his voice, only to expend more energy.
"That's right, this disciple is playing hide-and-seek with Master, and is even standing right behind Master. If you're not happy, then bite me."
His Master still hadn't discovered him.
Interesting! Lingzhou Yue frowned slightly, and her smooth, rosy forehead suddenly tilted to the side.
"Does it mean you don't want to grow up?"
"What man of this age doesn't want to grow up?"
"Could it be that he doesn't want to go out because he's too infatuated with his teacher? It's only natural for a little boy to be infatuated with a pretty older woman, but unfortunately..."
"What's the pity? Finish what you have to say, you bastard!"
Xiao Ran spoke his mind loudly, in a cool and sophisticated way.
The Master remained silent, only drinking heavily.
Xiao Ran then went to his Master's side and put his hand on his Master's shoulder.
Master still hasn't discovered him.
Good heavens! Xiao Ran had only ever seen this kind of plot in certain Japanese films in his previous life.
The only downside is that the bigger the movement, the more the body is exhausted. Just putting a hand on someone's shoulder makes me feel very tired, as if I'm not getting enough nutrition.
Xiao Ran was surprised that even with his arm around his shoulder, his master, a powerful figure in the Master Soul Spirit Severing, hadn't noticed him!
Yellow-tier Cultivation Method + max level mastery + Art of Resonance... Is it really that awesome? Xiao Ran suddenly became bold.
It's time to research ways to corrupt filial Filial Piety Points and cause it to explode! Haha, what a joke about not being able to touch a tiger's butt.
"I'm going to touch it today!" Xiao Ran stretched out his hand, but when he saw his Master's voluptuous and elegant waist and hip curves, he suddenly felt that this was not a good thing, after all, he was not a lewd person.
For the sake of propriety, he decided to try putting his arm around his Master's waist first.
After all, when they entered the Wraith Barrier of Flamefree City, his Master had specifically asked him to put his arm around his waist...
There shouldn't be any major problems.
Xiao Ran steadied himself, cleared his mind of all distractions, leaving only scientific research thoughts, and reached out to touch his Master's soft and supple waist.
The moment his fingertips touched his Master's immortal robe, a vast Spiritual Pressure suddenly rose up, as if a sword aura was about to burst forth.
Before she could even spit it out, in an instant, Lingzhou Yue suddenly turned her back, reached out and grabbed Xiao Ran's wrist, flipped him over and slammed him onto the edge of the pool.
Xiao Ran was thrown so hard that blood flowed from all seven orifices. He lay on the edge of the pond like a dead fish, gazing up at his Master's graceful and slender figure, wanting to cry but having no tears.
"Why did this happen..."
Why is it that when Master touches his face with his chest, nothing happens, but when Master touches his waist, something goes wrong?
Lingzhou Yue wasn't angry; a hint of satisfaction and worry flashed across her beautiful face.
What I'm satisfied with is Xiao Ran's courage.
What I'm worried about is Xiao Ran's life or death.
He tilted his head back, Lingzhou Yue of wine, and sighed slowly with a melancholy expression.
"I told you it was dangerous, and you still dared to act recklessly. If you had gone to another place, or if I hadn't taken the initiative to stop you, you would be dead by now."
"Why..."
The Spiritual Pressure and sword energy just now gave Xiao Ran a feeling that even he couldn't withstand it.
Could it be that Master has a restriction within his body that specifically counters men?
What exactly is Master's identity? Lingzhou Yue squatted down, leaned close to Xiao Ran's face, and smiled as she fed Xiao Ran a sip of wine.
The sake entered his throat, instantly flowing through his body, washing over Xiao Ran's limbs and bones, carrying a rolling coolness into his Boundless Qi Sea, stirring up a warm wave.
Her Master leaned close, cradling her snowy chin in his hand, his clear eyes concealing the sword's gleam, becoming incomparably radiant.
"I know what you want to ask, but now is not the time. One day I will make you understand."
With the help of the slightly tipsy alcohol, for a fleeting moment, Xiao Ran seemed to see a goddess.
Although he didn't understand what his Master's secret was, Xiao Ran still instinctively asked.
"Someday, but which day?"
Lingzhou Yue smiled gently, a rosy glow spreading across her beautiful face, indistinguishable from the morning sun or the afterglow of sunset.
"The day the world is destroyed or reborn."
Chapter 152 The King of Lewd Talk: Dawn's Lia In short: This is a story with sweet romance and semi- Invincible Novel. No matter how the protagonist advances, there will be no scenes of him pretending to be weak while actually being strong. The focus is on the interaction between master and disciple. Battles and showing off are secondary plots. As for advancing to Foundation Establishment, that will only happen when his filial piety changes.
