Swallowed Star: Holy Flesh

Chapter 104 Heavenly Questions (Second Update)

"Disciple is willing." Wang Xiu agreed without any hesitation.

He knelt on the ground and kowtowed three times to Gu Fenghou on the spot.

As for refusing, Wang Xiu is not that stupid.

After all, he is an immortal with a title of nobility. No matter how strong he is, it is definitely enough for him to at least teach himself a star-level person.

As for what happens next.

Who stipulates that a person can only have one teacher in his lifetime?

Just like in the original storyline, Luo Feng also had several teachers.

Huyan Bo, King Zhenyan, Lord of Chaos City, and the Hermit.

Luo Feng's four teachers are more awesome than the other, and each one helps him more than the other.

Zuo Shan Ke even prepared a most powerful treasure for Luo Feng.

The treatment is so good that it makes people drool.

There is no reason why Luo Feng can do it but Wang Xiu can’t.

No matter what, recognize this teacher first.

In this way, at least in the Qianwu Universe, as long as he does not provoke the Qianwu Lord, Wang Xiu can do whatever he wants.

"Haha, OK." Seeing Wang Xiu agree so readily, Gu Fenghou was also very happy, "From now on, you are my sixth direct disciple, Gu Feng."

"Okay, get up." Gu Fenghou said with a smile, "Let me first tell you about your five brothers."

"These five brothers of yours have now become immortals."

"The eldest brother's name is Gan Chen, the second brother's name is Shi Shou, the third brother's name is Yuan Ren, the fourth brother's name is Shi Gai, and the fifth brother's name is Yu Tian."

“Among them, your second senior brother Shishou is the strongest, and he has now reached the level of a marquis.

“Although the other four brothers have not yet achieved immortal status, they are also extremely powerful.”

"If there is a chance in the future, you brothers should meet each other, so that you won't meet each other without knowing each other in the future."

"Yeah." Wang Xiu nodded.

"Okay, I've told you all the brothers in the sect. If they knew they had a little brother, they would be very happy. You can spend time with him in the future." Gu Fenghou smiled and stood up and said, "Now follow me to the training ground. Let me see the true level of your current understanding of the laws."

"Yes, teacher." Wang Xiu said respectfully.

……

In the training ground.

Wang Xiu held the Taohai Knife in his hand and looked at Gu Fenghou in front of him with a serious expression.

Everything in the training field can change according to Wang Xiu's will, and the most important thing is that it can simulate the original laws, just like in the real universe.

Moreover, he can also set opponents of different strength levels according to Wang Xiu's wishes.

It is definitely a great place to practice and create secret techniques.

But this time it was Gu Fenghou himself who became Wang Xiu's opponent.

"Okay, let's get started." Gu Fenghou put his hands behind his back and smiled faintly, "Don't hold back, go all out!"

Wang Xiu didn't say anything, but his body shook, and suddenly two identical Wang Xiu appeared in the same place.

Phantom!

The next moment, the two phantom bodies burst out with terrifying speed at the same time, rushing towards Gu Fenghou from the left and right.

Wow!
In the training ground, dense sword lights suddenly lit up.

Without any hesitation, he started with the first level of "Golden Dragon".

Each dragon-shaped sword light was filled with the faint fluctuations of the original law of gold, and each sword light was the result of Wang Xiu's full effort.

With such a terrifying attack, even an ordinary ninth-level star-level warrior couldn't withstand a single blow.

Even an ordinary first or second level universe warrior would be defeated by such an attack.

It’s not that the cosmic-level strongmen are too weak, but that the improvement of their strength by the original laws is too great.

However, in front of an immortal at the peak of the marquisate, Wang Xiu's attack was not much stronger than that of an infant.

Although it was the same body, Gu Fenghou easily blocked all of Wang Xiu's attacks with just one hand and a knife.

Wow!
Suddenly, an extremely bright sword light flashed, instantly destroying all the sword lights swung by Wang Xiu.

The sword lights in the sky disappeared, and Wang Xiu looked at the sword against his neck and couldn't help but smile bitterly:
"Teacher, I lost."

"What? Are you still a little disappointed?" Gu Fenghou glared, "Your teacher is a marquis and immortal, and is only one step away from being crowned a king."

"If I lose to you, wouldn't I have lived in vain?"

"Uh..." Wang Xiu was left speechless by Gu Fenghou's words.

"That's enough. You've practiced the two techniques, 'Golden Dragon' and 'Ten Thousand Shadows', quite well." Gu Fenghou casually threw the knife in his hand aside. "Have you ever worshipped a teacher before?"

"No." Wang Xiu shook his head, "It was just by chance that I got a secret book."

"Yeah." Gu Fenghou did not doubt him. After all, this kind of thing was too common in the universe.

"Don't practice Golden Dragon for now." Gu Fenghou said directly, "Although this secret technique is considered to be relatively good among the more widely circulated secret techniques, it is still too bad."

"Not only is it difficult to practice, but it's also weak." Gu Fenghou said directly, "From now on, you will start practicing the secret method I created, "Heavenly Questions". With your current understanding of the laws, the power of your practice can be increased by at least 30%!"

"But you can continue to practice Ten Thousand Shadows." Gu Fenghou said with a smile, "Although the level of Ten Thousand Shadows is not too high, the effect is still good. It is enough for your current understanding of the laws."

"When you have cultivated a hundred phantom bodies, it will not be too late to change the secret method." "Yes, teacher." Wang Xiu replied respectfully.

"Wang Xiu, do you know what the criteria are for evaluating the quality of a secret technique?" Gu Fenghou asked with a smile.

Wang Xiu thought for a moment after hearing this, and replied uncertainly: "Great power and low difficulty in cultivation?"

"Yes, but it would be more accurate to say that the requirements for cultivation are low." Gu Fenghou nodded with satisfaction, "An excellent secret technique, under the same principles of enlightenment, is more powerful than other secret techniques."

"Other secret techniques may need to cross the threshold of the origin law to exert their power, but excellent secret techniques may only need to comprehend a little bit of the law to exert the same effect."

"The Golden Dragon you practiced before was quite powerful, not particularly bad, but it required too high a level of understanding of the laws." Gu Fenghou shook his head and said, "This means that if you want to perform a move with the same power, you must have a much higher level of understanding of the laws than others."

"Do you know who controls the nine magical weapons?" Gu Fenghou asked with a smile.

"I know." Wang Xiu nodded.

In the original story line, the Yanshen Weapon that Luo Feng has been using is one of the nine divine weapons.

"The nine great divine weapons are extremely miraculous. If a realm master can use the ninth level, he can even use it to fight against immortality." Gu Fenghou said with emotion, "The existence that can create such a divine weapon must be a super existence comparable to the realm master."

"You know, creating a secret method is much easier than creating a telekinetic weapon."

“But even if it is a secret method, I don’t have the confidence to create a secret method that can allow the Realm Master and the Immortal to fight against each other.”

"And even if I create it, others may not be able to achieve the same effect as I do when they perform it."

Wang Xiu nodded when he heard this. He understood what Gu Fenghou meant.

That’s right, no matter who created the secret method, it must be the most suitable for you.

Some people even created secret techniques that were extremely powerful, but other people could never cultivate them to the highest level and thus could not unleash the secret techniques' maximum power.

The nine divine weapons, represented by the Yan divine weapon, can enable any realm master, as long as he has enough understanding of the laws, to have the power to fight against the immortals with the help of the divine weapons.

This is incredible.

"Okay, we've strayed off topic." Gu Fenghou came back to his senses and said with a smile, "Let's not talk about the nine great magic weapons anymore. Let's continue talking about the secret method."

"In my opinion, a qualified secret technique cannot be too difficult to practice, and at the same level of law, the power it exerts must at least reach the level of the controller's nine divine weapons."

"Of course, this refers to the first few levels." Gu Fenghou said with a smile, "No matter which of the nine divine weapons, the more sophisticated it is, the later the levels."

"It is simply not something that a being of my level can create."

Wang Xiu nodded.

"I will come here once a month to answer your questions when you are comprehending the laws." Gu Fenghou said with a smile, "You can start now."

Wang Xiu was immediately overjoyed.

What has been the biggest problem in his cultivation process?
Is there no secret method?

There was a time when it was.

However, after obtaining the secret teachings of the Yunmo Star warrior lineage, this problem was solved.

Even though Gu Fenghou looked down upon "Golden Dragon", "Golden Dragon" was after all a secret technique that was only circulated among the immortals, and ordinary world masters could not even dream of obtaining it.

Wang Xiu was already very satisfied to have obtained the "Golden Dragon".

All along, the biggest problem Wang Xiu encountered in his cultivation was that he had no teacher!

When Wang Xiu first arrived on Earth and didn't have his own domain, Hong could still give him some guidance.

But after the crisis of the golden-horned beast, Wang Xiu's realm improved by leaps and bounds, and he has left Hong and the others far behind.

At this time, let alone instructing Wang Xiu, even if it was a normal discussion, Hong and the others would not understand.

How can we give guidance if we can’t even communicate?

Therefore, Wang Xiu has been studying the laws of nature by himself all this time.

When I encountered some confusion, I had no one to ask.

Now he finally has a teacher who can help him solve his problems.

"Teacher, when I was comprehending the law of the origin of gold..." Wang Xiu did not hesitate at all and immediately told about a confusion and difficulty he encountered when comprehending the law.

Marquis Gu Feng was worthy of his immortal title. Facing Wang Xiu's doubts, he did not hesitate at all. With just a few words, he made Wang Xiu suddenly enlightened.

A difficult problem that had been weighing on Wang Xiu's mind was finally solved. He felt extremely relieved and couldn't help but ask the next question.

Time passed quickly as the master and disciple asked and answered questions.

Gu Fenghou's first round of answering questions lasted for five days.

During these five days, all the confusion and difficulties that had been accumulating in Wang Xiu's mind were swept away. He felt that inspiration was almost bursting out of his mind, and he couldn't wait to go back and experience it carefully.

"Okay, looking at your appearance, I'm afraid you can't help it and want to go back and reflect on it carefully." Gu Fenghou said with a smile.

During these five days, he was very satisfied with Wang Xiu's performance.

No matter what it is, Wang Xiu almost always understands it immediately.

In terms of talent, Wang Xiu is probably the most talented one among his six disciples.

This time he really found a treasure.

Thinking of this, Gu Fenghou was also somewhat happy. He looked at Wang Xiu solemnly and said, "Remember, at this time next month, I want you to successfully practice the first level of Heavenly Questions."

"With your current state, the first level should not be difficult for you. I will come and check it out."

"is teacher."

　There's one more tonight
