Within a hundred-mile radius, whether flowers, grass, trees, or wild beasts, everything seemed to have encountered some ancient ferocious beast in an instant. A fear that came from the soul spread throughout their bodies, and in the end, they all began trembling violently!
Tongtian was dumbfounded when he saw this.
As someone who controlled Sword Dao Divine Abilities, he was all too familiar with it. This was clearly a sign that Sword Dao Divine Abilities had reached the grand mastery realm!!!
???
In other words, once he understood it, Tongtian was completely stunned.
The previous second, he had still been persuading Jiang Chen, even using himself as an example and saying that it had taken him several hundred years just to master the basics of Sword Dao Divine Abilities. Yet in the next second, he discovered that Jiang Chen had directly reached grand mastery in Sword Dao Divine Abilities!
More importantly, how long had he even been teaching him? Jiang Chen had learned it in just one short year. Such talent was simply terrifying!
At this moment, Tongtian somewhat understood how Yuanshi had felt when Jiang Chen had slapped him in the face. Right now, he was both delighted and embarrassed.
Jiang Chen was his disciple. Naturally, as his master, he was delighted that Jiang Chen possessed such talent.
Yet the embarrassment was also because of Jiang Chen. He had no choice—being slapped in the face felt awful, especially with Yuanshi and Laozi looking at him strangely from the side. It made him completely ill at ease!
Little did he know that even Yuanshi and Laozi were so shocked at this moment that they could not say a word.
What were divine abilities?
Divine abilities were crude forms of the Dao. Learning a divine ability meant that one had entered the corresponding Dao, and upon reaching a certain level, one could even control that Dao!
In short, divine abilities were the evolution of the Dao!
That was also why the vast majority of living beings sought to learn divine abilities.
However, just as divine abilities were powerful, learning them was incomparably difficult. Even a top Great Power like Tongtian had spent several hundred years merely mastering the basics. Needless to say, it was even more difficult for others. The difficulty of divine abilities could be imagined.
But what had they just witnessed? Someone had not only learned a divine ability in just one year, but had even reached the grand mastery realm?
If Tongtian, a Saint, had taught him well, that would have been understandable. After all, he was a Saint. Learning it in one year would have been surprising but not shocking. Reaching grand mastery, however, was another matter entirely.
This could no longer be described as talent. It was monstrous!
A monster among monsters!
How could they possibly know that Jiang Chen had been able to reach grand mastery in Sword Dao Divine Abilities precisely because Tongtian had taught him so well? After his download speed had been accelerated, he had directly completed the download of Sword Dao Divine Abilities in one year!
Tongtian's Sword Dao Divine Abilities were at the grand mastery realm, so after completing the download, Jiang Chen was also at grand mastery!
To be honest, he was somewhat surprised as well.
However, what surprised him was the astonishing download speed when someone explained it to him!
After his surprise, what he felt even more was wild joy.
If he had been anyone else, he might have worried about where to find someone to explain things to him. But as someone who had the Three Pure Ones as his master and martial uncles, he did not need to search at all!
In other words, from now on, he had no need to worry about slow download speeds when learning divine abilities. He could simply download them without a second thought!
After all, put another way, the Three Pure Ones were practically opening VIP access for Jiang Chen, allowing his download speed to accelerate!
"Ma-master, what's wrong?"
After awakening from the infusion of sword intent, Jiang Chen let out a satisfied sigh. But when he opened his eyes, he discovered that the Three Pure Ones were staring at him unabashedly. Their feverish gazes made him shiver.
"Quickly, tell your master. How did you comprehend Sword Dao Divine Abilities?"
The moment Jiang Chen finished speaking, Tongtian hurriedly came to his side and asked anxiously.
Yuanshi and Laozi also pricked up their ears from the side.
"I just listened and listened until I understood. What's wrong, Master? Could it be that my talent is too poor?"
Jiang Chen had no intention of telling anyone about the system, so he could only conceal the truth.
But seeing his master so anxious, he thought his talent was too poor and that it had created such a huge contrast for Tongtian.
Was that something a human would say?
The Three Pure Ones were dumbfounded, and the corners of their mouths twitched involuntarily.
He had reached grand mastery in Sword Dao Divine Abilities in one year, countless times faster than even Tongtian, who had taught him. Yet Jiang Chen claimed that his talent was poor?
If his talent was poor, then what did that make them?
Especially when they saw the questioning look on Jiang Chen's face, the Three Pure Ones felt so ashamed that they wished the earth would swallow them. If they had not seen that this was truly what he thought, Tongtian might have been unable to resist striking him!
"Ahem, let's not talk about that for now. You should hurry and learn the other divine abilities from your martial uncles!"
The more awkward he felt and the less he knew how to answer, the more Tongtian coughed and hurriedly changed the subject.
Soon, upon hearing that he was going to learn divine abilities, Jiang Chen stopped asking questions and turned to look at Yuanshi and Laozi.
Actually, when he saw the Three Pure Ones acting strangely, he had vaguely understood some of it. However, he had deliberately refrained from exposing them to spare their dignity.
"Destruction Divine Abilities concern annihilation. They are..."
Before long, Yuanshi's voice rang out as he began explaining.
"Download Destruction Divine Abilities and One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones!"
Following his usual routine, Jiang Chen immediately chose to download it while Yuanshi was explaining.
At the same time, he downloaded One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones in one go. After all, Laozi would explain it sooner or later.
"Ding! Beginning download of [Destruction Divine Abilities]!"
"Ding! Beginning download of [One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones]!"
"Ding! A grandmaster of Destruction Divine Abilities has been detected explaining it to the host. Download speed for [Destruction Divine Abilities] increased!"
After several system notifications sounded, the download progress bar for [Destruction Divine Abilities] immediately began advancing just like the previous one for [Sword Dao Divine Abilities]!
%!
.11%!
.12%!
A year passed quietly.
Just as Yuanshi was still explaining in detail, an aura filled with utter extinction suddenly erupted from Jiang Chen!
The moment the aura appeared, the flowers and grass around Jiang Chen withered for no reason, as if they had suffered some sort of fatal blow. In an instant, they were destroyed!
It was precisely the effect of Destruction Divine Abilities!
Just like that, under the astonished gazes of the Three Pure Ones and the others, Jiang Chen also learned Destruction Divine Abilities to the grand mastery realm!!
And that was not all. Another year passed, and Jiang Chen also learned Laozi's One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones to the grand mastery realm!
By this point, the Three Pure Ones were so shocked that they had already become numb.
One success might have been a fluke. One could even say that Jiang Chen's talent happened to be compatible with that particular divine ability. But succeeding two or three times was astonishing beyond words.
It proved that Jiang Chen's talent was truly monstrous!
Comparing people was infuriating. Compared with Jiang Chen, the Three Pure Ones felt that all the years they had lived had been wasted on dogs!!!
Although their feelings were complicated, they still had to teach him what they were supposed to teach.
"Today, your master will teach you Formation Divine Abilities!"
"System, download Formation Divine Abilities!"
"Ding! Beginning download of [Formation Divine Abilities]!"
%!
%!
%!.
"Ding! Congratulations, host. [Formation Divine Abilities] download complete!"
"System, download Artifact Refining Divine Abilities!"
"Ding! Beginning download of [Artifact Refining Divine Abilities]!"
"Ding! Congratulations, host. [Artifact Refining Divine Abilities] download complete!"
"Download Alchemy Divine Abilities!"
"Ding! Beginning download of [Alchemy Divine Abilities]!"
"Ding! Congratulations, host. [Alchemy Divine Abilities] download complete!"
In the blink of an eye, nearly a hundred years passed.
During this period, Jiang Chen seemed to have fallen into an endless cycle. Whenever the Three Pure Ones explained a divine ability to him, he would begin downloading the corresponding divine ability.
The system's number of downloads was fixed. Once a download was completed, another slot would become available. It was not the sort of thing that disappeared after being used once. Thus, over the years, he had used this fact to download every divine ability possessed by the Three Pure Ones!
And just like that, a person who had gathered all the divine abilities of the Three Pure Ones into one body appeared!!!
