Chapter 201 Is the Heaven School Guilty? (8)
Daoyuan has a mixed feeling.
He has no idea how to express how he feels, especially when he is disdainfully stared by Gao Ge.
Suddenly, he feels as if being looked down upon by an idiot.
He feels so bad.
It is even worse than being beaten up by Gao Ge.
Gao Ge goes to pick the Sky Covering Umbrella with the cracked cap. No one stops him.
For those who know nothing about the material, they can’t understand why Gao Ge picks this one.
Only the one with the cracked cap is the most useful among all.
Gao Ge has told the people at present that the Sky Covering Umbrella can help restore the strength soon. Yet, apart from that, its most important function is that anyone who eats it can hide his Qi at will.
Once Gao Ge eats it, even the strongest cultivator in the world sees Gao Ge, he won’t be able to feel the strength or the vibration of martial meridians of Gao Ge. Instead, Gao Ge will be only regarded as a common person, which will reduce the risk of exposing himself. Since Gao Ge has also grasped the Ghost-like Steps, it won’t be a problem for Gao Ge to approach a strong cultivator without being noticed.
Of course, the premise is that Gao Ge must reach the peak status of Ghost-like Steps practicing. In that case, he will be qualified to handle the strong cultivators.
Besides, when Gao Ge meets the formidable opponents and feels like escaping, he can hide his Qi and the opponents will hardly trace him.
Legend also has it that the Sky Covering Umbrella can also help cultivators get through the thunderbolt trial! As is known to cultivators, once they’ve reached the realm of peak and are about to become immortal, they will have to take the thunderbolt trial. Only if they get through it, they can succeed in becoming immortal. However, very few cultivators can survive the thunderbolt trial. Positively speaking, the survival rate may only be less than 10% or even 1%!
However, with the help of Sky Covering Umbrella, the cultivators can avoid the thunderbolt trial and become immortal directly!
This is why this material is called Sky Covering Umbrella.
It is rather difficult to find a Sky Covering Umbrella. Even if you are lucky enough to find a bunch of them, you can only find one with a cracked cap. And this one with a cracked cap is the one and only that is actually the most useful. The other ones won’t be able to help conceal the Qi of cultivators.
He picks the Sky Covering Umbrella with a cracked cap and then swallows it without thinking. He has to do this, for he doesn’t know whether the people at present will notice his purposeful action and take the Sky Covering Umbrella back. Therefore, he had better eat it before anything unexpected happens.
It tastes a bit astringent but after it is completely swallowed, even the breath carries a faint scent.
The eaten Sky Covering Umbrella doesn’t just disappear. Instead, it becomes some power inside Gao Ge’s body and starts to merge with the power of stars.
Gao Ge only knows that Sky Covering Umbrella can conceal the cultivator’s Qi, but he is not sure whether it works the same on his power of stars.
“Master, I need to digest this Heavenly Treasure Material.” Gao Ge raises his head to look at Master Guanshan and says.
Master Guanshan thinks for an instant and nods his head.
Then Master Guanshan turns to look at Daoyuan and Daozhi, saying, “You two go out first. I’ll stay here with him.”
“Yes, Grandmaster.” Daoyuan and Daozhi feel a bit depressed. It is only about digesting a Heavenly Treasure Material. Why the fuss?
After they walk out of the stone chamber, Daozhi whispers, “Grandmaster must have something to say to the brat.”
“Oh yeah?” Daoyuan is surprised and says, “Is there anything shady about Gao Ge’s nonsense talking?”
Daozhi is more sensible than Daoyuan. He grins and says, “Does it matter? We don’t even know what they are or what they are used for. Only that boy knows. This is his lucky chance.”
“But those things belong to the Heaven School!” Daoyuan holds a grudge against Gao Ge. Upon thinking of the school’s stuff taken away by Gao Ge, he feels even angrier.
Daozhi shakes his head, saying, “The things do belong to our school, but it doesn’t mean that we’ve got the lucky chance. Cultivators are always pursuing Taoism. Taoism operates naturally. If the treasure belongs to you, it will be yours anyway and no one will take it from you.”
Daoyuan understands what is right.
Yet, despite that, it doesn’t necessarily mean he can completely let go.
After thinking for a while, he heaves a long sigh.
“Forget it. No more talking about it. Let’s take a walk outside.”
When the stone door is closed, Gao Ge grins and says to Master Guanshan, “My two nephews are quite sensible.”
Master Guanshan neglects Gao Ge’s nonsense and asks directly, “What is the name of that thing?”
“Sky Covering Umbrella.”
“What’s its real function?” Master Guanshan asks further.
Gao Ge smiles and says, “Just as I told you before.”
Master Guanshan thinks it over and sighs with helplessness, “You didn’t tell us all. To be exact, the Sky Covering Umbrellas over there do have the function as you mentioned except the one with a cracked cap.”
Gao Ge doesn’t respond.
Master Guanshan is not a fool.
He has been over 200 hundred years old. Even a dog which lives for that long can see through a lot of things.
If Gao Ge continues making things up now, Master Guanshan will not believe him. Instead, it will be an insult on Master Guanshan.
Gao Ge has taken the advantage.
He had better be appreciative for what he has gained. Otherwise, he may be condemned by universe one day.
Then Master Guanshan asks another question.
“Do you think that the Heaven School is guilty?”
Gao Ge is a bit surprised and then stares at him in confusion.
Master Guanshan continues saying, “You’ve heard what Daoyuan said, but you may not be sure whether he was telling the truth or not. Yet, I still believe him anyway. The Heaven School has fallen into a trap. Even though it brings the trouble to itself, it is still excusable.”
Gao Ge looks rather stern.
Stared by Master Guanshan, he suddenly feels very uncomfortable.
He feels as if he has been completely seen through by Master Guanshan.
Even the Sky Covering Umbrella cannot conceal his secrets.
“Even if the Heaven School is guilty, it is pardonable.” After saying that, Master Guanshan closes his eyes, “I’ll talk no more. Conversation ends. You go back to your work.”
Gao Ge consents with him.
He looks as if thinking about something.
While he is refining the Sky Covering Umbrella inside his body, he is in deep thought.
What Master Guanshan said to him sounds a bit odd.
It feels like Master Guanshan was not talking to Gao Ge.
He was talking to the Dragon Court.
After all, it won’t matter what Gao Ge thinks whether the Heaven School is guilty. The Dragon Court’s opinion matters most.
He starts to suspect that Master Guanshan has guessed something from the very beginning.
Master Guanshan taught him the array methods and let him learn about the hidden story.
All that Master Guanshan has done is to let the Dragon Court find out the truth through Gao Ge.
It doesn’t make sense that only within such a short period of time, a man who is over 200 hundred years old can trust him to this degree and allow him to know so much about the Heaven School as well as come to the cave.
