Chapter 286, Nominal Disciple
Chaos Ruins.
Luo Feng met for the first time the teacher who, without even showing his face, merely extended a palm formed from chaotic energy and obliterated two immortal city lords, the Blood Sword Venerable, who even had to stand respectfully to the side.
He was certain that this city lord was definitely a special life form avatar. After all, the Blood Sword Venerable had previously warned him that the one currently presiding over the initial universe was merely an avatar of his teacher. Moreover, no human being could reach a height of tens of thousands of kilometers; even his strongest and largest Golden Horned Beast avatar was like a kitten in front of the city lord.
The teacher who was able to teach a hegemon-level powerhouse like the Blood Sword Venerable is now willing to accept me as a disciple.
Of course I'd love to!
Babata had mentioned more than once that his former master, Huyanbo, was bullied to death by his mortal enemy because he had no teacher, no backer, and no helper. This even made him more and more convinced that he should find an immortal or even a king to be his teacher. If a king or even a prince was willing to take him as a disciple, he should not hesitate or delay.
It was also because of Babata's occasional enticement that Luo Feng was not as resistant to having another teacher as he had imagined, and thus directly kowtowed and became a disciple.
"Disciple greets Master!"
Ye Muxuan looked at Luo Feng and revealed a slight smile. Blood Sword Venerable Lian Luo looked at this little guy and suddenly seemed to see himself from back then.
"Since you are willing to become my disciple, I will give you a chance." Ye Muxuan, dressed in an embroidered black robe, looked at Luo Feng and said, "In the remaining twenty years in Chaos City, Lian Luo will guide you. You can ask him anything you don't understand. Currently, in the Nine Universes School, besides the one who left behind the 'Nine Universes Chaos Stele,' Lian Luo is the one who has the deepest understanding of the Nine Universes Chaos Stele."
"Once you leave Chaos City and go to the Primordial Secret Realm, during the entire universe-wide period, if there's anything you don't understand, you can ask Lian Luo once every ten years in the virtual universe."
"If you can pass the seventh level of the Bridge to Heaven in Chaos City within the next twenty years, I will accept you as my personal disciple."
"If you can't meet this condition, then when you are able to break through the Primal Heavenly Mountain, I can accept you as my personal disciple. If you can't meet either of these conditions, then you can only be a nominal disciple."
Upon hearing that he could consult the Blood Sword Venerable, a powerful figure capable of commanding the utmost rulers of the universes, at any time, Luo Feng was overjoyed.
From now on, who can say they didn't have a teacher to guide them? The Blood Sword Venerable alone is stronger than all their teachers combined!
Upon hearing that he would have to conquer the seventh level of the Heavenly Bridge within the next twenty years, Luo Feng instantly felt immense pressure. As for the Primal Heavenly Mountain, he still didn't know what it was, so he was unsure of its specific difficulty.
However, he was confident because the Golden Horned Beast was already at the peak of the cosmic level and could break through to the Domain Lord level at any time. As long as the original core broke through, the Demon Slayer Clan clone could also break through to the Domain Lord level. At that time, whether it was the Golden Horned Beast clone or the Demon Slayer Clan clone, their talents would begin to erupt.
Even if he didn't meet the first condition, he was confident that he could fulfill the second condition thanks to the affinity of his two clones for the laws of metal and space!
Luo Feng bowed in gratitude, both to thank his teacher Ye Muxuan and to thank the Blood Sword Venerable for his guidance over the next decades, centuries, or even millennia.
Time and space shifted, and Luo Feng and Lian Luo left the Chaos Ruins and arrived at the outer square.
"Luo Feng, since you are willing to become the teacher's disciple, you can call me Second Senior Brother from now on." The man in blood-stained clothes walked side by side with Luo Feng in the passage and said, "Our eldest sister guards the clan's key location and is also cultivating in seclusion, trying to break through the Ju level. She has rarely gone out for hundreds of thousands of epochs, so I am qualified to follow the teacher.
"Yes, Second Senior Brother." Upon hearing the long timeframe of hundreds of thousands of epochs, Luo Feng clicked his tongue in amazement. One epoch is ten thousand years, which is billions of years. According to scientists' calculations, the sun is only a few billion years old now.
A hundred years? Ten thousand years? The time a planet or star has existed? The time a powerful being has existed? For these great beings, those who haven't lived for the tens of millions of years required to become a world lord are all juniors.
"There's a Blood-Clad Tower in Chaos City, and I've already granted you access. I'll be there for the next twenty years, so feel free to ask me anything you don't understand." Although they were walking side by side, Luo Feng was actually half a step behind, but they had still covered quite a distance while they were talking. "Later, I'll give you some of my miscellaneous notes from studying the first three diagrams of the Nine Universe Chaos Stele over the years, so you can have something to refer to."
"Thank you, Second Senior Brother!" Luo Feng naturally knew that creating a secret technique was not something that could be accomplished overnight, but rather a slow process of improvement. During this process, inspiration would inevitably arise, along with directions that would emerge during his thinking, and he could even glimpse the original creator's thought process.
A truly skilled person would never sell such disorganized "messy notes" as a self-created secret technique; that would be beneath their dignity. After all, they are fragmented and lack a systematic learning process. They would only lend them out if the relationship was extremely close, and even then, they would only have some reference value.
However, for later learners like Luo Feng who were trying to comprehend the secrets of the "Bloodstained" manual, these messy notes still had some use.
"Don't think the teacher's requirements are too high. To date, only six people have been accepted as his personal disciples. Every one of them, including myself, has passed the seventh level of the Bridge to Heaven during our thirty years in Chaos City. Even the youngest, the sixth one, was already a Universe Venerable hundreds of thousands of years ago. His current strength is even slightly stronger than the Qianwu Kingdom's ruler, as you know." The man in blood-red clothes looked at Luo Feng and said, "Among our human race's strong individuals, there's a saying that the teacher doesn't acknowledge: those who are valued by the teacher and accepted as disciples will at least become Venerables in the future."
The terms "Cosmic Venerable" and "Cosmic Kingdom Lord" are simply different ways of referring to powerful individuals at the same level, a fact that Luo Feng was aware of.
Does he have a chance to become a Venerable One in the future?
Thinking of this, Luo Feng felt a surge of excitement in his heart, and he secretly held his breath, determined not to disappoint his teacher!
There were no secrets in Chaos City, especially regarding the whereabouts of the Blood Sword Venerable. The news that he had brought Luo Feng into the inner sanctum of the City Lord's mansion, and subsequently confirmed by the Blood Sword Venerable, that Luo Feng had been accepted as a disciple by the Shadow Blade Master, caused a stir in both Chaos City and the Hong Alliance.
From the time when Venerable Qingmei was merely a Hengxing-level cultivator who took him in as a disciple and nurtured him to become the leader of the four top cosmic overlords, possessing strength comparable to some cosmic lords, to when Menglan was chosen as a disciple and is now also a high-level Venerable, the Shadow Blade Master, besides possessing awe-inspiring strength, also has an astonishing eye for selecting disciples.
The genius chosen by the Shadow Blade Master will start as a Venerable.
As things stand, the value of this statement is still increasing.
It is said that Nightfall King Mo Shang, the Shadow Blade Master, originally intended to take on a disciple, but considering that following the path of the Bright Martial Venerable was more suitable, the Shadow Blade Master ultimately allowed the Bright Martial Venerable to take on the disciple instead. The source of this news is unknown, but there is no smoke without fire.
In an independent dimension of the Virtual Universe Company, the Nine Swords Venerable was stunned after hearing the report of his demonic kingship.
First, the rulers of Yuanchen and Gulun vied to take Rong Jun as their disciple, and a promising talent was snatched away—although he didn't see anything extraordinary about Rong Jun—and now—
He certainly couldn't try to steal the Shadow Blade Master's disciple, or even Yuan Chen's. Besides, the Shadow Blade Master's nominal disciples were of higher status than his own personal disciples, and Luo Feng, unless he was stupid, wouldn't give up the Shadow Blade Master for himself.
But thinking about how two promising talents are now gone... he felt a little heartbroken.
