Chapter 1243: Virtuosic

Pak! Pak! Pak!

Sun Mo applauded. “Sir, you truly have the mind of an intellectual and are unafraid of authority. You are also armed with magnanimity and grand dreams. You ought to be praised and admired!”

Upon hearing Sun Mo’s applause and praise, a hint of embarrassment appeared on Yu Lin’s face. He could tell that Sun Mo was mocking him.

“Regardless of whether you believe it or not, I did give some of the cultivation arts and secret techniques I stole to some students free-of-charge. They can learn them even if they are not my personal students!”

Yu Lin explained.

“How about playing a game with me?”

Sun Mo surveyed this fellow. Divine Sight had displayed all his information to Sun Mo. “Do you think that by giving some unimportant things away, you are considered generous? If you are really capable, why don’t you give top-level cultivation arts on the ‘heirloom-level’ to people?”

“Eh!”

Yu Lin gritted his teeth and argued. “I’ve not encountered any genius students that are suitable to learn top-level cultivation arts. I’m afraid if I taught them that, they would use the cultivation arts to create trouble in the future.”

“Are you trying to lie to ghosts? You can ask yourself honestly if you believe this?”

Sun Mo was so angry that he laughed.

For the sake of getting a better reputation and leaving a path of retreat, he passed down all the weaker cultivation arts and knowledge. But the truly impressive ones were naturally not taught.

Why was Yu Lin living a better life than the other prisoners?

It was precisely because this fellow would hand over a top-level cultivation art once every three years in exchange for a large amount of resources.

Yu Lin lowered his head and shifted onto the tiny bed. He then lay down. He no longer tried to quibble or that would simply be courting humiliation for himself.

“Do you want to be fully recovered?”

Sun Mo didn’t leave. The character of this fellow couldn’t make it, but his mind contained genuine cultivation arts. So, Sun Mo might as well treat him.

Yu Lin’s ears pricked. “What do you mean?”

“My Ancient Dragon Capturing Hands can allow your broken bones to grow again and your tendons to be reconnected. You will be able to stand up once more and move around like an ordinary person.”

Sun Mo introduced.

“Impossible!”

Yu Lin shook his head repeatedly. “I’ve never heard of such a magical cultivation art before!”

(If there’s one, I would have long since stolen it.)

“How old are you merely? How many stars do you have?”

Sun Mo was calm. “You are staring at the sky from the bottom of a well. You can’t possibly be thinking that what you saw is the entire world, right?”

“...”

Yu Lin found this very ridiculous. (I’m older than you and my star-rank is also higher. Aiya, alright, your star-rank is indeed higher than mine.)

Upon thinking of this, Yu Lin was convinced.

“What do you want?”

‘One who is unaccountably solicitous is surely hiding evil intentions.’ Yu Lin believed that he probably had to pay a lot of things.

“When you can move, spar three rounds against me. If I don’t say stop, you cannot end the battle. How about it?”

Sun Mo suggested.

“Just this?”

Yu Lin was startled. His lips moved and he almost spoke out, ‘Are you an idiot?’.

“Naturally, you can also regret it at that time. In any case, you can just let me beat you up any time!”

Sun Mo didn’t mind it. As long as he struck his opponent, Immemorial Vairocana would work and could force the knowledge of his opponent out. It had no connection with one’s will, heart state, or cultivation realm.

“Fine. Leaving aside sparring, if you can really cure me completely, I don’t mind becoming your sandbag!”

One would be a bast*rd if they didn’t take advantage of things that could be taken advantage of. Yu Lin was purely trying everything in a desperate situation.

Only after losing his legs did he realize how great it was to be able to walk normally.

...

Sun Mo wasn’t in a hurry to treat Yu Lin. Hence, he first went to look for Hu Xingjiang to report this to him.

If a prisoner like Yu Lin was fully recovered, the security level of his cell would have to be increased. If not, what would happen if he fled?

“Why? Can you treat Yu Lin completely?”

Hu Xingjiang lifted his head in astonishment. He felt that Sun Mo must be joking with him. “I’ve checked the condition of his legs before. His bones are completely crushed and his tendons have been severed.”

“I know!”

Sun Mo held his teacup with both hands and drank a mouthful of tea.

The quality of the tea leaves was really bad. Even Mister Qin, the gatekeeper of the Central Province Academy, wouldn’t drink this.

“Using an alchemy pill?”

Hu Xingjiang frowned. “Teacher Sun, I have to remind you about this. Yu Lin is an incorrigible habitual thief. It’s impossible to depend on his gratitude for being cured to make him turn over a new leaf.”

Hu Xingjiang had already given Sun Mo enough face. He actually wanted to say that if Sun Mo hoped to get the cultivation arts Yu Lin stole in exchange for treating his legs, Sun Mo would surely be swindled.

“I’m not going to use an alchemy pill. My Ancient Dragon Capturing Hands can cure him!”

Sun Mo’s answer caused Hu Xingjiang to be stunned.

He could be considered someone with much experience and wide horizons. But wanting to depend on a massage technique to cure a pair of broken legs? Wasn’t this a fantasy?!

“Besides, I’m not planning to ‘transact’ with him by making him trade his cultivation arts in exchange for curing his legs!”

Sun Mo then stood up. “Since Hu-laoshi has no objections, I’ll go and make my preparations.”

“Wait a minute!”

Hu Xingjiang’s curiosity surged off the charts. “If Teacher Sun doesn’t mind, when you are doing the massage treatment, can I observe from the side?”

“Sure!”

Sun Mo naturally didn’t care about this. Although the ancient massaging technique wasn’t difficult, if he wasn’t actively teaching it, no one could dream about pilfering it.

...

Two days later, two prison guards lifted Yu Lin and headed down.

“C...can I refuse the treatment?”

Yu Lin was afraid now. He had been locked up for close to 12 years, and by depending on a secret art to eavesdrop, he managed to gather a lot of information. For example, others knew that the prison had seven levels. But he knew more. He knew that there was another level below the seventh level and what was most terrifying was that those who entered had never come back out again.

They could easily find any casual excuse and he would be dead.

“Shut up!”

Ji Han berated.

“Mummy, I want to go home!”

Yu Lin cried.

Ji Han felt very vexed and directly lashed out with a hand break on Yu Lin’s neck.

Pak!

Yu Lin’s eyes rolled back and fainted.

When Yu Lin woke once more, he discovered that he was already lying in a clean room. Large spirit stones were embedded into the walls and illuminated this room brightly.

“He’s awake!”

Ji Han had just finished inspecting Yu Lin’s injuries. If this pair of broken legs could really be cured completely just from a massage, he would kneel down and be a simp for Sun Mo.

“S...sir Secondary Saint?”

Yu Lin cast a glance at Hu Xingjiang who was standing at the side. He was then frightened like a turtle that was being attacked, and his neck immediately shrank back.

“Let’s get started!”

Hu Xingjiang urged. He was very busy and didn’t have much time to waste here.

Sun Mo stood at the side of the sickbed. “Don’t be nervous. Even if I make a mistake, your legs won’t be in a condition that’s worse than now!”

“I...I’ll have to trouble Teacher Sun, then!”

Yu Lin did his best to squeeze out a smile, but after the genie appeared, his smile became even more unsightly than him crying.

“What’s this?”

Yu Lin subconsciously tried to dodge, but the genie directly grabbed hold of his chest and pressed him down on the bed. “I...I was wrong, please let me go?”

“Quiet!”

Hu Xingjiang quietly spoke but Subtle Words activated. The power of the halo instantly bound Yu Lin, making it so that he couldn’t even move a single finger.

“Magical!”

Hu Xingjiang stared at every single movement made by the genie. Although he didn’t understand, he could see that the genie’s movements were filled with a mysterious rhythm that was very pleasing to the eyes.

“Is this the God Hands?”

Hu Xingjiang sighed ruefully.

“My Ancient Dragon Capturing Hands can be divided into four categories. It can ‘make’ the blood alive, clear meridians, set bones, and forge muscles. Through physical simulation of the body, I can completely ignite the body’s potential.”

Sun Mo introduced.

Because the operation’s difficulty was great, Sun Mo also acted personally.

Half an hour soon passed.

Ji Han was already vexed, but Hu Xingjiang was still watching with great interest. He would even occasionally ask a question or two. Sun Mo didn’t conceal anything and wasn’t selfish at all, answering all of Hu Xingjiang’s questions.

“If we remove diseases and death from accidents, humans will only die naturally from old age. This is because their cell division cycle has reached the upper limit. However, the Longevity Realm can actually increase one’s lifespan, equivalent to increasing the number of times the cells can divide themselves.”

Sun Mo kneaded Yu Lin’s legs. “The cells of this fellow are now very weak. Even if his legs are cured, he won’t be able to live long.”

Swish~

Yu Lin’s face was completely devoid of blood. “Teacher Sun, I don’t want to die!”

“Cells? Division?”

Hu Xingjiang couldn’t understand.

Just when Sun Mo wanted to explain, he was interrupted by Yu Lin.

“Teacher Sun, you have revealed too much.”

Yu Lin didn’t dare to offend Hu Xingjiang and since he himself wanted to listen, he hadn’t interrupted Sun Mo’s explanation. But now, he needed Sun Mo’s help, so he would naturally stand on Sun Mo’s side.

Hu Xingjiang started. After that, he clasped his hands in apology.

“I was too rude!”

Sun Mo’s personality was truly good. If Hu Xingjiang was honest with himself, he could never be so selfless to such a degree.

Ding!

Favorable impression points from Hu Xingjiang +300. Friendly (800/1,000).

Hu Xingjiang no longer asked any questions but silently observed from the side. Sun Mo also focused on the operation, but when it was about to end, a black shadow suddenly shot past him.

“What’s that?”

Sun Mo was startled. His gaze tried to track it, but in the end, he didn’t see anything.

“Did I see wrongly?”

Sun Mo frowned.

“G...ghost!”

Yu Lin was so scared that he started shivering.

“As a great teacher, you shouldn’t allow yourself to be frightened so easily!”

Sun Mo berated.

“Teacher Sun, this is the third great riddle of the Great Prison of Desolation, Haunted Apparitions!”

Yu Lin’s voice trembled. “I heard that this fellow loves to feast on brain juice and can even possess people.”

“Stop talking nonsense!”

Sun Mo cast a glance at Hu Xingjiang and discovered that his countenance was calm. Either he was extremely gutsy or he knew some secret information.

The genie paused his movements and glanced at the side.

“Mn?”

Sun Mo immediately looked over. As expected, there was a black-colored apparition there. He hurriedly activated Divine Sight.

Unknown Target!

“Damn!”

Sun Mo then lifted his hand and cast a beam of spiritwave light.

Swish~

The apparition directly lunged over, baring its fangs.

“Ahhh!”

Yu Lin screamed and he rolled down from the sickbed.

“Don’t allow your emotions to be flustered!”

Hu Xingjiang berated.

Swish~

A golden halo shone over and when its light touched the apparition, it was like the frost under the sun. It melted into nothingness.

“Hu-laoshi, what’s that?”

Sun Mo asked.

“If you want to know the answer, come and look for me in three days.”

Hu Xingjiang didn’t want to conceal this anymore.

“It’s over, it’s over. Now that I know such a secret, would I be killed off?”

Yu Lin lost his head out of fear. Just when he was planning on how to escape, he suddenly discovered to his shock that his legs could move now. “M...my legs...”

“If you keep moving around randomly, the operation will be a failure!”

Sun Mo warned.

“Ah?”

Yu Lin stiffened from shock. After that, he felt so anxious that he cried. “What should I do?”

“Get up and lie down on the bed properly!”

Bang!

Yu Lin lay flat on the bed, contemplating the feeling of being able to walk again. He murmured while staring pleading at Sun Mo.

“Benefactor Sun, you definitely have to cure me!”

Yu Lin made a vow. “I’ll work like an ox or horse for you in my next life!”

Ever since Hu Xingjiang ascended and became a secondary saint, he felt that it was no longer possible for him to be amazed or surprised in this life. After all, could there be anything more amazing than him being able to become a secondary saint?

But now, Secondary Saint Hu who had always been experienced and knowledgeable was completely dumbstruck. He really wanted to shout the word ‘awesome’.

The word ‘virtuosic’ probably meant nothing more than this!
