#4 - Chapter 4: How can this Master make me worry so much?

Lin Yaoyao slipped off her red dress, revealing her jade-like smooth shoulders.

Her long, dark hair cascaded down naturally, exposing her jade feet and slender, fair thighs, an incredibly alluring sight.

Occasionally, peach petals drifted onto her shoulders and into the pool, adding to the beauty of this peerless woman.

Her beauty was unmatched, her appearance unparalleled!

"Who is it?"

Lin Yaoyao suddenly became alert, quickly putting on her red dress and looking beyond the peach grove.

Ahem!

Ye Kong walked over with a slightly embarrassed expression, holding a yellowed ancient book in his hand.

The aura of a scholar!

These four words flashed through Lin Yaoyao's mind.

Years of fishing, coupled with his already somewhat handsome features, gave Ye Kong a unique scholarly air, causing Lin Yaoyao to be momentarily stunned.

"It seems the soul fusion wasn't comprehensive enough; this Emperor is actually experiencing some girlish thoughts..."

Lin Yaoyao quickly regained her composure, a hint of anger flashing across her pretty face.

"May I ask what brings Master here?"

If you dare to use force, with your Qi Training stage cultivation, I can suppress you with one hand.

Hmph, you still want to test this Emperor? Don't you even look at this Emperor's talent? If I told you, it would scare you into questioning your life.

Lin Yaoyao sneered inwardly.

"Reporting to Master, this disciple spent the entire night and has already cultivated to the fifth level," Lin Yaoyao said calmly.

In fact, she had already cultivated to the seventh level, but she didn't say it, worried that she would be too flamboyant.

She only wanted to show off her talent appropriately, enough to get more cultivation resources.

At the same time, she was afraid that this cheap Master would be stimulated and his Dao heart would be damaged.

After all, she had heard from her fellow disciples in the Ascension Ground that the cultivation methods of the Nine Star River Peaks were all obscure and difficult to understand.

Even for disciples with outstanding talent, being able to comprehend one level in a month was already very good.

"One night? Fifth level?"

Ye Kong was stunned for a moment.

This disciple, her talent is a bit too poor, isn't it...?

Seeing that her Master was shocked by her, Lin Yaoyao became even more disdainful in her heart.

You mortals are just mortals. If I were to tell you that I have actually cultivated to the seventh level, wouldn't this Master be so surprised that his jaw would drop?

Heh, maybe he would immediately turn around and become this Emperor's disciple!

"This disciple didn't sleep all night and suddenly entered a meditative state, fortunately gaining some insights," Lin Yaoyao explained.

Her meaning was that she was able to comprehend the fifth level because of a sudden enlightenment, a coincidence.

She didn't want to discourage her Master.

After Ye Kong heard this, his expression froze again.

This... is this disciple's talent really that poor?

She only comprehended the fifth level because of luck?

Does the 'Xuanhuang Sutra' require comprehension? Isn't it something you can learn just by looking at it once?

If I weren't so lazy and read books so slowly, I would have learned it all in the time it takes to drink a cup of tea.

Ye Kong sighed helplessly.

Forget it, after all, this is his first disciple since he transmigrated. It is also the first cultivator he has had in-depth contact with since transmigrating.

"Your talent is alright," Ye Kong suppressed the urge to criticize his disciple.

"Master, you don't have to hold back, your expression is about to give you away," Lin Yaoyao thought helplessly.

She didn't blame her Master. After all, she was destined to be a Great Emperor.

This Master was ordinary and unremarkable. Compared to her, it was like the difference between clouds and mud!

"Since you say you have cultivated to the fifth level, then I will test you to see how well you have understood it," Ye Kong continued.

He wanted to see if there were any areas where his disciple hadn't understood properly, to help her fill in the gaps.

"Alright."

Lin Yaoyao nodded on the surface, but sneered inwardly.

This Master must not have even cultivated to the fifth level himself, and is using the excuse of testing me to secretly learn my insights.

That's right, it must be like this!

Lin Yaoyao understood in her heart, but didn't expose him.

After all, her Master was quite pitiful. As a Peak Master, he was still only at the Qi Training stage, and would even get injured catching a wild chicken.

Too pitiful.

Thinking of this, she cleared her throat, her red lips slightly parted, and she said softly, "Master, the Xuanhuang Sutra emphasizes the transformations of Xuan and Huang. The first three levels mainly discuss how to absorb spiritual energy from the world, while the subsequent levels discuss how to open up the spiritual sea, so that spiritual power doubles with each breakthrough."

"Among these, the most difficult is how to circulate the transformations of the Zhou Tian..."

Lin Yaoyao explained very carefully.

After an incense stick's worth of time, she finally explained the cultivation method clearly.

Alas, I hope that after listening to my insights, Master will be able to break through to the Foundation Establishment stage soon.

"Not bad, not bad," Ye Kong nodded.

Although this disciple's understanding still has flaws, it's already not bad. After all, she's just a little girl.

He took out the scroll of "Star River Reincarnation Sword" and solemnly handed it to Lin Yaoyao, instructing her:

"This is the unique sword technique of my Xiaoyao Peak. You must take it and cultivate it well. Do not pass it on!"

"If it is lost, I'm afraid..."

I'm afraid it will cause turmoil throughout the entire continent.

Ye Kong had already read it before coming, and it was indeed a divine technique, and a bit difficult.

In some places, he had to use the Heaven Opening Hammer to fully comprehend it.

You must know that the Heaven Opening Hammer is a Heaven-Opening Divine Artifact, a Chaos Treasure. Giving someone a hammer strike can enlighten them, granting them a aptitude no less than that of an Innate Dao Fetus.

Afraid of what?

Lin Yaoyao scoffed.

This broken sword technique, even if you gave it to this Emperor, this Emperor wouldn't want to practice it.

Any sword technique this Emperor randomly takes out would be a thousand times better than yours.

Lin Yaoyao was amused by her Master's solemnity.

"Don't worry, Master, I will definitely not pass it on," Lin Yaoyao said weakly.

"Mm," Ye Kong changed the subject, "This sword technique is slightly difficult, divided into seven levels in total. If you can't comprehend it, there's no need to be sad."

Sad your hammer.

Lin Yaoyao curled her lips. This Master really hasn't seen much of the world.

Today, I will let you see what it means to be a Great Emperor!

Suddenly, Ye Kong's expression changed slightly as he looked towards the peak of Xiaoyao Peak.

"You continue to cultivate, I'll go first."

Ye Kong left in a hurry.

Lin Yaoyao looked at her Master's back with a strange expression, her big eyes blinking, "This Master, perhaps he was enlightened by me and is rushing to break through to a higher realm."

I wonder if his understanding is thorough enough and if he will become possessed.

Alas, why does this Master make this disciple worry so much?

Lin Yaoyao sighed and began to look at the sword technique.

"Anyway, I have nothing to do. It's fine to practice it casually, at most it will waste a little bit of this Emperor's time."

...

Xiaoyao Peak Hall.

The formation that Ye Kong had casually set up was gradually cracking.

He could sense that an extremely terrifying aura was about to descend here!

If he hadn't set up the formation, the entire Star River Sect would probably have been crushed into powder by this terrifying aura.

"This intense killing intent, is it here for revenge?" Ye Kong narrowed his eyes.

He had been transmigrated for more than ten years and didn't have any enemies at all.

They were all hammered.

Crack!

The speed at which the formation cracked became faster and faster. Outside the space passage, there was a huge Dharma Idol that seemed to be about to descend here.

It roared earth-shatteringly, "Lin Yaoyao, you can't escape..."

Enemies?

Alas, why does this disciple make this Master worry so much?

Ye Kong picked up the Heaven Opening Hammer.
