Book 2: Chapter 32: Green Divine Pupil
Bai Xiao Mo and Wang Chuang pressed onward, swiftly venturing into the cavern’s darkness. Despite the absence of light, their divine senses remained unhindered, allowing them to perceive their surroundings with clarity.
Leading the way, Wang Chuang’s eyes emitted a soft white glow, resembling night pearls, as he cautiously navigated the path, ever vigilant for potential dangers.
Meanwhile, Bai Xiao Mo circulated his cultivation method, attuning his senses to the environment. Though not exceptionally gifted, his keen sixth sense often transformed adversity into opportunity.
A subtle green light flickered in Bai Xiao Mo’s eyes, a glow reminiscent of jade.
Abruptly, Wang Chuang halted, causing Bai Xiao Mo to stop behind him. Wang Chuang fixed his gaze on a seemingly ordinary stone wall ahead, announcing, “This is it. We need to use our vision techniques to activate the ?Unlock Scripture?, as I showed you before.”
Bai Xiao Mo nodded, directing his attention to the stone wall in front of them. Despite its unremarkable appearance, intricate inscriptions covered its surface, forming a profound array that seemed to withstand the test of time, its engravings growing deeper with age.
As if acknowledging the presence of the two individuals, the array suddenly came to life, illuminating with a welcoming glow.
With a nod exchanged between them, Bai Xiao Mo and Wang Chuang advanced together, standing before the array with intense light shining in their eyes.
Their respective green and white glows converged on the stone wall, merging with the array as their spiritual powers rushed inside.
Despite the visible beads of sweat on their foreheads, a testament to their exertion, their focus remained unwavering. Following the instructions of the ?Unlock Scripture? they circulated their spiritual powers and channeled their spiritual powers through their vision techniques, gradually unraveling the array.An undercurrent of excitement rippled through Wang Chuang’s gaze as he intensified his white light. Bai Xiao Mo mirrored this excitement, yet a subtle wariness lingered in his eyes. He remained cautious of both the unseen beyond the stone wall and his companion, Wang Chuang.
With a creak, the stone wall began to split and retract, unveiling a hidden crack beneath the array’s surface. This discreet crevice widened under the array’s influence, revealing glimpses of what lay beyond.
The stone wall yielded to their combined efforts, opening partially before grinding to a halt. Despite their continued efforts, the wall remained stubbornly unmoved.
Halting their vision techniques, Bai Xiao Mo and Wang Chuang peered inside, their gazes fixated on the revealed chamber.
Inside, heaps of spiritual stones and crystals adorned the chamber, with a stone table crafted from spiritual crystal at the forefront. Three jade slips rested atop the table.
In their surroundings, there was nothing out of the ordinary. The chamber, which had been sealed for an unknown period, now lay open before them, devoid of any foul or rotten smells.
“Is this the place?” Bai Xiao Mo’s eyes scanned the area as he spoke. After confirming the absence of any spiritual array mechanisms, he let out a feigned sigh of relief.
Excited, Wang Chuang nodded and hurriedly approached the table, where three jade slips lay. “This is it! Considering the array outside is the triple-buffed higher Barren grade ‘World Sealing Array’, this must be the tomb of the Great Vision Technique Master.”
The World Sealing Array was something that could only be disengaged by the ?Unlock Scripture?that was activated with vision techniques. Vision technique masters typically set up such arrays to test their disciples.
Bai Xiao Mo nodded slightly, his gaze stuck to the three jade slips.
Meanwhile, Wang Chuang picked up one of the jade slips and pressed it to his forehead. After inspecting its contents, he exclaimed, “I was right! This is the higher Barren grade ?Cloud Crossing Storm Pupil?!”
Following suit, Bai Xiao Mo took a jade slip and placed it against his forehead. With a nod, he confirmed, “This is the higher Barren grade ?Soul-Catching Ancient Beast Pupil?!”
He then turned his back on Wang Chuang, seemingly unguarded, and continued, “Let’s stick to our original agreement. I’ll take one, and the other two are yours. We’ll split the spiritual stones and crystals equally.”
Their loot-sharing arrangement had been decided during their first meeting.
As such, Bai Xiao Mo only took one jade slip before squatting on the ground to organise the spiritual stones and crystals strewn about.
After Wang Chuang collected the third and final jade slip, he turned his eyes towards Bai Xiao Mo’s back and spoke slowly,
“Alright.”
The moment he finished speaking, he instantly unleashed a palm strike towards Bai Xiao Mo’s back. This completely merciless strike shot towards Bai Xiao Mo with great momentum.
However, could Bai Xiao Mo truly be defenceless?
Having seen countless such betrayals, and possessing an extremely strong sixth sense, he instantly counterattacked. In his hands was a spiritual needle coated with a potent poison.
Wang Chuang’s complexion faltered slightly, but it was too late. A faint figure flashed behind him—his manifestation transformation, the ‘One-eyed Falcon.’ However, before he could react, his palm collided with Bai Xiao Mo.
The force of the blow sent Bai Xiao Mo flying into the air, but at the same time, the poisoned needle in Bai Xiao Mo’s hand pierced into Wang Chuang’s hand.
“Aah!”
The poison swiftly coursed through Wang Chuang’s body.
Just as Wang Chuang attempted to fly away using his ‘One-eyed Falcon,’ he cast a resentful glance back at Bai Xiao Mo.
Yet, he was immediately stunned by the green light in Bai Xiao Mo’s eyes.
“Pu!”
“Nish!”
“Ment!”
Under Bai Xiao Mo’s gaze, a formless energy shattered Wang Chuang into hundreds of fragments. Strangely, as these fragments tore apart Wang Chuang’s body, not a single drop of blood was spilt.
Wang Chuang’s primordial spirit escaped from his body, his eyes flickering between his corpse and Bai Xiao Mo, filled with horror. He couldn’t even exert the full power of his Cognizance realm cultivation.
Before his primordial spirit could plead, it was obliterated by the power of Bai Xiao Mo’s green eyes, disappearing entirely.
Bai Xiao Mo heaved as he sat on the ground, slowly recovering.
Despite being at the peak of the Sky Reaching realm, facing a first-layer Cognizance realm opponent was still an extremely challenging task for him.
His talent was mediocre, and he hadn’t even awakened his Abhijñ?.
As he looked at the corpse before him, his tense body gradually relaxed. After regaining his spiritual powers, he tidied up the corpse and retrieved the ring of holding from it, glancing at the third jade slip.
It was the higher Barren grade ?Trace Pupil?.
His joy was evident on his face. With these three higher Barren grade pupil scriptures in his possession, it was secure him a peace of mind for the foreseeable future.
Subsequently, he meticulously examined Wang Chuang’s ring of holding, discovering within it the ?Seizing Pupil Technique?. This technique appeared to be a specialized method for usurping the spiritual pupils of others, integrating them into one’s own cultivation.
A faint smile played on his lips as he touched his own eyes,
“It seems you joined forces with me solely to take my ‘Green Divine Pupil’. Hmph, did you really think you could steal it from me without knowing the true strength of my ‘Green Divine Pupil’?”
The green light emanating from Bai Xiao Mo’s eyes was his innate talent, the ‘Green Divine Pupil’.
As long as he kept it concealed, no one would discover the extraordinary spiritual physique he possessed. It was a spiritual pupil that could rival the potency of innate bloodlines!
Moreover, this ‘Green Divine Pupil’ was innate!
While a faint sigh escaped him inwardly, his hands did not falter. After tending to the remains of Wang Chuang and gathering all the spiritual stones and crystals strewn about, he surveyed the now empty chamber and spoke, “May this place serve as your eternal resting ground, Wang Chuang!”
With a swift palm strike, he obliterated the chamber, ensuring no evidence remained of what had occurred there.
Then, Bai Xiao Mo soared upward along the cliff. He urgently needed a secluded place to cultivate. The opportunity to advance his cultivation was within reach, and he could feel it keenly.
