Chapter 164 Chen Beixuan: I won't allow anyone in this group to be more awesome than me!

164.

The system notification popped up immediately, and everyone instantly saw Shi Potian in the live stream.

This guy still has delicate features and a simple, honest look.

Devourer Lord: "How many bowls of Laba porridge did you drink?"

Shi Potian: "I downed eighteen bowls in a row, astonishing the Dragon and Wood Island Masters!"

Shi Potian: "Thank you for the reminder, Boss Jiang Li. My power has almost doubled!"

Shi Potian: "Those who went to the island regretted it deeply after they found out the truth, and they all wanted me to return their Laba porridge!"

Jiang Li almost couldn't help but call him a good-for-nothing.

Eighteen bowls of Laba porridge, poured together, make a whole big bucket.

Eighteen bowls! This guy must have some serious skill to survive being poisoned!

Shi Potian: "This is the Supreme Mystery Scripture. All of you, study and comprehend it!"

He pointed the camera at the stone wall, and lines of words carved on the wall appeared before everyone's eyes.

With the appearance of the Supreme Mystery Scripture, no one spoke in the live stream.

The wondrous Supreme Mystery Scripture had long whetted everyone's appetite, and everyone wanted to see if they could comprehend the correct Supreme Mystery Scripture.

Jiang Li also began to comprehend the Supreme Mystery Scripture according to the descriptions in the original work.

On Wudang Mountain, Zhang Sanfeng carefully studied the Supreme Mystery Scripture on the camera for a while, then got up and began to practice it.

As a thick sword aura blasted out, Zhang Sanfeng revealed a smug expression.

"The power has indeed increased considerably. I wonder if the old Daoist's understanding is correct!"

He felt that he had grasped the essence of it correctly.

He felt that the power of this move surpassed that of most martial arts techniques.

Even the magical power cultivated by cultivators can unleash a great deal of attack power with this move.

Zhang Sanfeng, somewhat smug, began to speak in the chat group:

Zhang Sanfeng: "This sentence should be understood as follows."

In a short while, Zhang Sanfeng explained it with his own understanding.

Finally, he added one more sentence;

The Wudang Centenarian, "My attack power has increased significantly; I must have grasped the correct technique!"

The Heaven and Earth Universe Invincible Borrowing Method: "Old Zhang, you're wrong. These words should be interpreted like this..."

Wang Chao: "You're all wrong. My understanding is correct. It should be understood like this... My attack has almost doubled!"

Yan Shisan: "As if anyone's attack power hasn't increased!"

After everyone exchanged words, they were all dumbfounded.

They all felt that their understanding was correct because their strength had improved.

But isn't this just like what Jiang Li said? Everyone thinks they've grasped the right thing, and everyone's strength has improved.

But neither of them could convince the other!

Peach Blossom Island Little Chef: "This Supreme Mystery Scripture is truly amazing!"

The Wudang Centenarian, "It seems that none of us have grasped the true Supreme Mystery Scripture!"

Chen Beixuan: "This is unbelievable! A group of cultivators can't even comprehend a mere martial art!"

Inviting Moon: "How can there be such miraculous martial arts? Everyone comprehends them differently, yet they all improve their strength!"

Wang Chao: "Where is Jiang Li? Shouldn't Jiang Li be able to comprehend the correct Supreme Mystery Scripture?"

Chen Beixuan @Lord of Devourer Lord: "Brother Jiang Li, have you figured it out yet?"

Devourer Lord: "I've figured it out!"

Jiang Li smiled slightly and didn't say anything more.

It's only just begun; let's see if anyone can react in time!

The Wudang Centenarian exclaimed, "Holy crap, Jiang Li is terrifyingly powerful!"

Chen Beixuan: "What is the correct way? I would appreciate guidance from esteemed Jiang Li!"

Devourer Lord: "If you've read through all the contents of the Supreme Mystery Scripture and still haven't been able to comprehend the correct Supreme Mystery Scripture, then I'll reveal the secret!"

Devourer Lord @Shi Potian: "Why don't you comprehend it?"

He discovered that although Shi Potian was broadcasting live to everyone, he had not actually tried to comprehend the Supreme Mystery Scripture.

Shi Potian: "I... I can't read, how can I comprehend it?"

An embarrassed look appeared on his face.

The group is full of cultivators, and he doesn't even know how to read; it's really embarrassing to admit.

Of course, another reason he didn't comprehend it was that Jiang Li had already promised to give him the Diamond Dragon God Body.

Even if the Supreme Mystery Scripture is profound, it can't be more powerful than cultivation techniques.

He is now just waiting to become a cultivator.

Yan Shisan @ Shi Potian: "Holy crap, you can't read?"

Li Xunhuan: "If you can't read, how are you communicating in a chat group?"

Shi Potian: "??? Do you need to be literate to communicate in a chat group?"

Sun Wukong: "I, Old Sun, can't read either!"

Wudang Centenarian, "Chat groups are amazing; not being able to read doesn't hinder communication!"

Devourer Lord @Shi Potian: "Don't be afraid. The Supreme Mystery Scripture is extremely profound, and everyone's understanding of it is different. Not being able to read does not affect your comprehension!"

Shi Potian: "Is that so? Since Boss Jiang Li has said so, then I'll try to comprehend it!"

Upon hearing this, Shi Potian sat down and began to comprehend the Supreme Mystery Scripture in his own way.

The people in the chat group didn't urge him either.

Over the next few days, Shi Potian traveled through all the stone chambers inscribed with the Supreme Mystery Scripture, broadcasting live to everyone.

During this process, there were occasional arguments in the chat group.

Because everyone discovered that their skills had improved.

However, as soon as they uploaded what they had learned, the chat group would invariably label it as something too Supreme Mystery Scripture and add the word "fake" after it.

Until this day, Shi Potian led everyone to the last stone chamber.

At the beginning, he sat down and meditated as usual.

But after a while, everyone noticed that Shi Potian stood up and began to wave his arms.

At the same time, a powerful aura emanated from his body, like a surging river of true energy, and the surrounding stone walls trembled.

The Wudang Centenarian, "Why did Shi Potian's true energy suddenly increase so dramatically?"

Yan Shisan: "Could it be that he has comprehended the correct Supreme Mystery Scripture?"

Li Xunhuan: "Obviously! I remember when he consulted Master Jiang Li for his destiny, Master Jiang Li said that Heroes' Island was his destiny!"

Sing: "How did he figure it out? Even I, a martial arts genius one in ten thousand, couldn't comprehend the Supreme Mystery Scripture. Is he even more talented than me?"

Chen Beixuan: "Could it be that in the chat group, his comprehension is second only to Jiang Li, the great master?"

The Zombie Taoist: "Shi Potian is such a fool!"

Wang Chao (Devourer Lord): "Brother Jiang Li, has Shi Potian truly comprehended the correct Supreme Mystery Scripture?"

The Devourer Lord: "Indeed, he is the destined successor of the Supreme Mystery Scripture, so naturally he can comprehend the true Supreme Mystery Scripture!"

Chen Beixuan: "Brother Jiang Li, what is the true Supreme Mystery Scripture? I, a Transcending Tribulation expert, can't even comprehend a mere mortal martial art!"

The Wudang Centenarian: "I beg you, Master Jiang Li, to decipher this!"

Sing: "I can't believe it either, Shi Potian's comprehension is higher than mine!"

Inviting Moon @Lord of Devourer Lord: "Brother Jiang Li, Shi Potian looks so simple-minded, how come he was able to comprehend the Supreme Mystery Scripture that none of us can understand?"

Almost everyone was unconvinced that Shi Potian had truly comprehended the Supreme Mystery Scripture.

Anyone who's spent a long time in chat groups knows that this guy isn't exactly smart; in fact, he's kind of dumb.

That's why, while everyone was unconvinced that Shi Potian could comprehend the Supreme Mystery Scripture, they were also quite puzzled!

Devourer Lord: "Because he is illiterate!"

Devourer Lord: "Those words are completely misleading!"

The Devourer Lord: "The true Supreme Mystery Scripture lies in the shapes of those characters, the strokes of those characters, which correspond to the routes of true qi flowing within the body!"

Devourer Lord: "Didn't you notice that the characters in each stone chamber are different? This is the true secret of the Supreme Mystery Scripture!"

After Jiang Li finished speaking, the chat group was silent for a few seconds.

Everyone was stunned.

So the true mystery of the Supreme Mystery Scripture is this: it's not about interpreting the meaning of the words, but about the strokes and patterns of the characters.

The Wudang Centenarian, "So that's how it is!"

Chen Beixuan: "I coughed up three liters of blood! All these past few days, I've been racking my brains trying to figure out the meaning of those words!"

Yan Shisan: "I never imagined that being illiterate would have such advantages!"

Wang Chao: "It's not that simple. Just matching these strokes to the text is also a difficult task!"

Zixia Gentleman Sword: "Yes, now that Boss Jiang Li has deciphered it, who among you can convert the strokes of these characters into the path of true qi circulation? I certainly can't."
