Chapter 6 Becoming a Master's Disciple
Chapter 6 Becoming a Master's Disciple
"Su Yu, you're already over forty?"
Professor Huang He suddenly stopped in his tracks, staring at Su Yu with a look of astonishment in his eyes.
Su Yu nodded and said, "I had a dream last night, a very long dream. I stayed in the dream for a long time, and the time is a bit blurry."
"I dreamt of the giants who created the world, and of the formation and destruction of a world."
Finally, I stood quietly by a small river, watching...
"When I wake up from the dream, I will no longer be confused."
Su Yu raised his hand, and with his mental power at will, a visible wisp of mist in his palm wriggled and made various shapes.
Huang He was completely stunned by what he saw. He had been cultivating for over seventy years and had witnessed the rise of countless cultivation prodigies as well as the fall of peerless experts. Yet today, he saw someone casually playing with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth in their hands on only the second day of their cultivation journey.
What incredible talent!
The reason why cultivators are not confused is that they can use the energy of heaven and earth through their own mental power. Most people need to borrow external objects, such as swords, talismans, formations, etc. A few mental masters can directly communicate with the energy of heaven and earth, but they can only make some use of it.
Su Yu seemed to have already taken control of this mass of primordial energy, and it gave people a very special feeling, like the "divine arts" in the legends of the Taoist sect.
Only the divine arts of the Taoist school can be directly cast using the primordial energy of heaven and earth, releasing the purest power to purify everything.
In Taoism, those who master Taoist divine arts are all unparalleled experts, holding top positions in the mortal world.
Su Yu's understanding of the world is quite different from that of others.
Professor Huang He sighed, "Su Yu, I think only Master Fu can teach you in this world. I hope you can meet Master Fu soon."
Su Yu recalled the tall man she had met in the desert, and her heart surged with emotion.
Li Yu, who was standing to the side and did not understand the way of cultivation, also chimed in, "Brother Su is the most amazing!" After saying that, she blushed a little and forgot that Huang He was there, but it didn't matter.
On the second floor of the old bookstore, Su Yu saw Mr. Mu You, the seventh gentleman, waiting there, and Mr. Yu Lian, the third gentleman, who had been sketching by the window for many years.
"Hello Su Yu, my name is Mu You. I am the seventh in my family in the back mountain of the academy. You can call me Seventh Senior Sister from now on."
Muyou considered talking to Su Yu about other things first, but she felt that Su Yu's presence at the academy and his visit to the old bookstore meant that he had already made a decision, so she simply told him everything she was thinking.
As for Junior Uncle? Mu You also had his own thoughts. As long as Su Yu called him Senior Sister, he would definitely be too embarrassed to become Junior Uncle of the back mountain of the academy anymore.
People in the secular world were unaware of the legend of Junior Uncle Ke Haoran. Su Yu had no comparison and would never have imagined that he could become Junior Uncle in the back mountain of the academy.
"Greetings, Seventh Senior Sister." Su Yu bowed respectfully, surprised that things had gone so smoothly.
"Greetings, Seventh Master." Fourth Princess Li Yu followed suit, placing herself on the same side as Su Yu.
Mu You's eyes lit up, and she said, "Junior Brother, if you're willing to call me Senior Sister, it means you're willing to become my junior brother and follow in our teacher's footsteps?"
Su Yu said, "Seventh Senior Sister, it is my greatest honor to become Master's disciple."
Mu You said, "Okay, that's great. It's settled then. You, Su Yu, will be my junior brother, and you'll also be the twelfth teacher of the academy from now on."
Everything went surprisingly smoothly, and the two of them were heading in the same direction. Mu You even wanted to hug Su Yu, but due to her status as a senior sister and the difference between men and women, she ultimately did not hug her.
"Junior brother, let me introduce you. This is our third senior sister, Yu Lian. You should call her Third Senior Sister when you see her."
Su Yu nodded and bowed, saying, "Greetings, Third Senior Sister."
Yu Lian put down her pen and looked at Su Yu, saying, "If you have any questions about cultivation in the future, you can ask me."
"If you can't find any books in the old bookstore, you can ask me. I know the location of all the books in this old bookstore."
Su Yu's cultivation state was very peculiar. He had an extremely close connection with the primordial energy between heaven and earth, as if the primordial energy around him belonged to him.
He had a terrifying idea: to devour all this spiritual energy into his Qi Sea Snow Mountain and become the infamous demonic cultivator that everyone hates.
This may be the peculiarity of those who are celestial beings: the side effects of being too close to the primordial energy of heaven and earth.
The Third Master Yu Lian in front of her happens to be the legendary Demon Sect Master who disappeared long ago. If Su Yu were to embark on the path of demonic cultivation in the future, she might become a good guide for him.
Before meeting the Master, Yu Lian was a pretty good catch.
Becoming a disciple is simple, but the master is traveling and it is unknown when he will return. Yesterday, the eldest master sent word that he is going on a long journey to a very far place. For the time being, the second master will be in charge of the back mountain of the academy.
Su Yu longed to see the Master, but he never expected that after he met the Master yesterday, Haotian's gaze would once again fall upon the Master.
Because of Su Yu's existence as a time traveler, Haotian kept a close eye on the Master, so much so that the Master didn't even have time to say anything to Su Yu before he began his escape.
Before leaving, the Master casually escorted Su Yu to the foot of the Academy Mountain, and even the boundary marker of the Great Tang Dynasty followed Su Yu from the border of the Great Tang Dynasty to the foot of the Academy Mountain.
After saying goodbye to Yu Lian and Huang He, Su Yu followed Mu You to the back mountain of the academy.
The Fourth Princess Li Yu was very fortunate to follow Su Yu into this legendary and mysterious place, where they witnessed the miracles of the Tang Dynasty.
The first person Su Yu met was Mr. Wang Chi, the Eleventh Master.
Mu You introduced from the side: "This is Xiao Shiyi, named Wang Chi. He is good at debating, and he spends all his energy on flowers and plants. He can identify the uses of all the flowers and plants in the world and is proficient in herbal medicine. He can be considered a reclusive medical sage. Junior brother, you can consult him if you have any medical problems in the future."
Su Yu bowed to Wang Chi. In fact, in his memory, this eleventh teacher of the academy did not have much of a presence. It was only through Mu You's introduction that he learned that this senior brother Wang, who was proficient in debate, was also a great medical expert.
Back then, Wang Chi was probably a well-known figure in the outside world. Even without relying on his cultivation or background, he could stand on equal footing with some cultivators at the Knowing Destiny Realm.
There is a waterside pavilion in the middle of the lake, with very beautiful scenery.
Seeing Su Yu staring blankly, Mu You said, "Junior Brother, I usually embroider in that waterside pavilion. I'm an expert in formations. If you have any questions about formations in the future, you can come to me."
"Of course, you can come to see me anytime. You're always welcome."
Continuing onward, from the woods to the west, came the melodious sounds of a zither and flute.
Muyou continued, "The one playing the flute is Ninth Junior Brother Beigong Weiyang, and the one playing the zither is Tenth Junior Brother Ximen Buhuo. The two of them come from the South China Sea Island, and their cultivation method is unique in the world."
Su Yu greeted them one by one. Although the two were only at the Cave Profound Realm, Su Yu could sense that the sounds echoing in the mountains, combined with mental power and the primordial energy of heaven and earth, were evolving in a completely new direction.
If one day these two manage to unravel the mystery, they might just be able to create a new category of cultivation, transcend the five realms, and become a different kind of grandmaster.
