Wen Min and Lu Xueqi's Astonishment, Innate Buddha Bone?

Su Han caught the wood-cutting knife Wen Min tossed over.

Seeing Wen Min's eager-to-watch-a-show expression, he could not help shaking his head.

With memories of his past life, how could Su Han not know what Wen Min was thinking?

She merely wanted to see him make a fool of himself.

Unfortunately, she was bound to be disappointed.

Su Han thought to himself, Though this Tear Bamboo is tough, I now possess both Great Brahma Prajna and Tai Chi Xuan Qing Dao. How could I compare to ordinary new disciples?

I only hope that after this, Shui Yue will finally set her mind at ease about me.

After all, if she comes to watch me every night, it will seriously hinder my cultivation of Great Brahma Prajna.

With that thought in mind.

Su Han slowly walked up to that exceptionally slender stalk of Tear Bamboo and lightly raised the wood-cutting knife in his hand.

He swung it down as though casually.

Yet a flash of cold light passed by, and the Tear Bamboo was instantly severed cleanly, its cut smooth as a mirror.

Su Han turned around, looked at Wen Min, and calmly asked, "Senior Sister Wen Min, is this enough?"

"Huh?"

Wen Min's eyes widened, her face filled with shock and disbelief.

She opened her mouth, yet for a long while, she could not utter a complete sentence, as if someone had cast a paralysis spell on her.

Only after quite some time did she struggle to squeeze out a few words.

"Th-th-th-th-this... how is that possible?"

Wen Min stared fixedly at the severed Tear Bamboo, then looked at the wood-cutting knife in Su Han's hand, as though doubting whether she was hallucinating.

Wen Min had never imagined that her little junior brother, Su Han, could cut through Tear Bamboo so easily.

Though she had deliberately chosen one that was easier to cut for him.

Still, even if it did not take a full day, it should have taken at least several hours, right?

Yet he had cut through it with a single strike, and made it look so effortless?

For a moment, Wen Min could not help recalling the hardship she had endured when cutting bamboo back then. What did all my suffering amount to?

Countless questions surged through Wen Min's heart. She could not understand why Su Han possessed such tremendous strength.

After a long while, Wen Min finally came back to her senses.

She grabbed Su Han's arm and inspected the wood-cutting knife in his hand.

After confirming that the knife had not been tampered with and was indeed an utterly ordinary wood-cutting knife.

Wen Min hurriedly asked Su Han in an anxious voice.

"Little Junior Brother, h-how did you do that?"

Su Han smiled faintly. "Senior Sister, perhaps I was just lucky."

"Lucky, my ass!?"

Wen Min clearly did not believe him, but she also knew Su Han might have his own secrets, so she did not press him further.

Still, the way she looked at Su Han now held noticeably more curiosity.

"Senior Sister, are we still cutting bamboo?"

Su Han asked Wen Min curiously.

"No, no more..."

Wen Min repeatedly waved her hands at Su Han, looking as though she were begging to be spared.

But soon, an excited look suddenly appeared on her face.

"Come, come, come! Hurry and follow Senior Sister to see Master. I bet Master's jaw will drop too."

As she spoke.

Wen Min hurriedly dragged Su Han toward the middle of Little Bamboo Peak.

After Su Han and Wen Min left, the Back Mountain Bamboo Forest was quiet. A gentle breeze drifted through it, rustling the bamboo leaves.

Dressed in white, Lu Xueqi slowly emerged from the depths of the Bamboo Forest like a fairy.

A long sword rested in her hand, and her cold gaze fell upon the stalk of Tear Bamboo Su Han had severed.

Lu Xueqi's delicate brows furrowed slightly, her heart full of doubt.

She had been practicing her swordsmanship deep in the Bamboo Forest when her senior sister's voice disturbed her, prompting her to come over out of curiosity.

And then she witnessed Su Han's astonishing feat.

Lu Xueqi walked up to the Tear Bamboo, crouched down, and carefully examined the cut.

When she saw the mirror-smooth surface, she was instantly filled with astonishment.

How could a disciple cutting Tear Bamboo for the first time possibly achieve this?

Lu Xueqi could not help recalling the difficulties she had faced when cutting bamboo back then. She had spent a long time and great effort before barely managing to cut through a single stalk.

Yet Su Han had done it so easily. She found it impossible to believe.

Lu Xueqi rose to her feet and looked in the direction Su Han and Wen Min had gone, complicated emotions appearing in her eyes.

She stood there for a moment.

Then Lu Xueqi turned and returned to the depths of the Bamboo Forest.

Little Bamboo Peak, Shui Yue's residence.

Wen Min dragged Su Han along at a run, and they soon arrived at Shui Yue's residence.

"Master, Master!"

Before even entering, Wen Min called out excitedly.

Shui Yue frowned slightly as she looked at Wen Min and Su Han behind her. "Didn't I tell you to take your little junior brother to the Back Mountain to cut bamboo and cultivate?"

"Why have you suddenly returned?"

Excitement covered Wen Min's face as she hurriedly said, "Master, you don't know! Little Junior Brother Su Han... he cut through Tear Bamboo with just one strike!"

Surprise appeared in Shui Yue's eyes. She turned her gaze toward Su Han and asked, "Su Han, is this true?"

Su Han clasped his hands slightly and replied respectfully, "Master, it is true."

After hearing Su Han's answer, the surprise in Shui Yue's eyes deepened.

She pondered for a moment, then suddenly raised her hand. A gentle stream of spiritual energy slowly enveloped Su Han.

Su Han only felt a warm force circulating around his body. He did not resist and allowed Shui Yue to inspect him.

After this, Shui Yue should finally stop suspecting me, right?

Su Han was not worried in the slightest that Shui Yue would discover he cultivated Great Brahma Prajna.

After all, with the Demonic Buddha Body, Demonic Heart trait, his body was filled with the power of Buddhist nature. How could she possibly sense anything unusual?

Su Han was confident that as long as he did not use Great Brahma Prajna in front of her, let alone Shui Yue, even Daoxuan would not be able to sense that he had cultivated Great Brahma Prajna.

After all, in the original story, Daoxuan had failed to notice anything unusual about Zhang Xiaofan.

Even when Zhang Xiaofan went to Tianyin Temple, before he used Great Brahma Prajna, not a single monk of Tianyin Temple could tell that Zhang Xiaofan knew Great Brahma Prajna.

The Zhu Xian World stood above martial arts worlds, but it was ultimately not the sort of cultivation world where one could attain immortality.

As Su Han was lost in thought.

Shui Yue had closed her eyes and was carefully sensing the fluctuations of spiritual energy returning from Su Han's body.

As time passed, she detected nothing unusual about Su Han's spiritual energy. She only sensed that his body was incomparably strong.

A moment later, Shui Yue slowly opened her eyes, disbelief filling her gaze.

Looking at Su Han, she said in astonishment, "Su Han, the strength of your physical body far surpasses that of disciples at the same level. It is even... even stronger than that of some disciples who have cultivated for many years?"

Wen Min's eyes widened at the side, her face full of disbelief.

She knew full well how discerning her master Shui Yue was. For her master to be so astonished, Su Han's physical strength had to be extraordinary indeed.

Su Han smiled faintly. "Master, this disciple does not know why it is so either. Perhaps it was some fortunate coincidence during cultivation."

Shui Yue shook her head slightly. "Perhaps there were fortunate coincidences, but your talent and potential cannot be overlooked either."

"Su Han, do you know how great an advantage such powerful physical strength will give you on the path of cultivation?"

Su Han thought for a moment before answering, "This disciple understands. A powerful body can better withstand the impact of spiritual energy and also offer greater advantages in battle."

Shui Yue nodded slightly. "Correct."

"It would not be an exaggeration to say that you possess Heavenly Talent."

"But you must not become arrogant or complacent because of this. You must continue to work hard and improve your strength."

Su Han nodded solemnly. "This disciple will remember Master's teachings."

Shui Yue looked at Su Han and thought to herself, There is no doubt that Su Han possesses a special physique. It should be something similar to an Innate Dao Bone.

Could it be that he possesses an Innate Buddha Bone?

That would explain his astonishing Buddhist nature and such a formidable body. It seems I truly misunderstood him before.

With that thought, Shui Yue waved her hand and dismissed Wen Min.

"Wen Min, you may leave first."

Then Shui Yue looked at Su Han. "Su Han, I have some words to speak with you alone."
