Chapter 24
The commotion outside did not affect Mu Qingxue.
Her mind was as peaceful as the still water in an ancient well. She had always remembered her master’s warning. Before she reached the introductory level of the Three Thousand Purity Palace Art, she couldn’t have any emotional fluctuations.
Su Chen’s sudden appearance caused ripples to undulate in her heart.
She would not make the same mistake again.
With light steps, Mu Qingxue stepped into the formation of the third test and arrived in front of the mysterious stone tablet.
“It is unexpected that a fragment of the Divine Prowess Stone will actually appear in this place…”
Mu Qingxue stood in front of the mysterious stone tablet.
Her master’s voice sounded in her mind again.
However, this time, the voice was filled with emotion, as if she had fallen into some distant memory.
To Mu Qingxue, she did not even need the Sea Transformation Pill to break through to the Qi Sea Realm.
The reason why she came to participate in this outer sect trial was also because of the request of the mysterious master in her mind. She wanted to comprehend a certain martial art from this mysterious stone tablet.
She had heard her master mention this mysterious stone tablet more than once.
This mysterious stone tablet wasn’t something that belonged to the Great Mystery Sect. It was brought back from the outside world by a sect a long time ago.
Its real name was the Divine Prowess Stone, and it was a thousand feet tall!
The stone tablet before her was just a small fragment of the Divine Prowess Stone!
The Divine Prowess Stone recorded a vast amount of cultivation methods and martial arts in the world. This fragment kept by the Great Mystery Sect only contained a small portion of them.
“The Divine Prowess Stone can resonate with providence! The more providence one was blessed with, the more likely it was for one to obtain the recognition of the Divine Prowess Stone and comprehend all the cultivation methods and martial arts inside. Unfortunately, most of your providence has fused with your constitution that has yet to be fully awakened. Even with my current condition, I am unable to awaken it… I’m not asking you to obtain all the cultivation methods and martial arts in the Divine Prowess Stone. That’s impossible and unrealistic! Of course, if your constitution is fully awakened, you might have a chance. However, there is no Qi Gathering Realm cultivator in the entire East Barrens who can do this. However, you must obtain the God Walking Steps and Wave-Like Subtle Steps inside. These two martial arts are extremely powerful and can help you run for your life. In addition, you have to do everything you can to obtain the earth-level martial arts inside. Although you can’t learn them now, they will definitely come in handy in the future. I can feel that this broken tablet contains two to three earth-level martial arts!”
Mu Qingxue’s master’s voice came up in her mind.
This time, she said a lot in one breath.
“If you can’t do it this time, then you can try it again when you break through to the Qi Sea Realm. I will help you prolong the mysterious state of your breakthrough!”
The voice in her mind added.
“Yes, Master!”
When Mu Qingxue heard this, her expression immediately became serious as she replied in her mind.
She calmly stretched out her delicate hand and placed it on the broken tablet.
Buzz…
The next moment, a hazy light descended.
While everyone was watching, breathless with anticipation, a few dazzling characters slowly appeared on the surface of the tablet: Super-Grade Middle-Class!
The entire place fell into a strange silence.
Immediately after, an intense commotion erupted.
“Super-grade middle-class! It’s actually a super-grade middle-class talent!”
“Super-grade! Senior Sister Mu Qingxue actually has a super-grade talent!”
“I’ve been in the sect for five years, but I’ve never seen someone with a super-grade talent. I didn’t expect to see one today!”
…
People discussed this in disbelief.
Those who had already admired Mu Qingxue cheered excitedly. An outsider would think that they were tested out with a super-grade talent.
Outside the arena, Liu Yang and Lu Zhen were completely silent. They stood rooted to the ground as motionless as a statue, their faces filled with disbelief.
“It’s actually a super-grade talent!”
Elder Xie and the others were also shocked.
Her talent had already surpassed most of the elders of the sect in the Grand Mystery Sect.
At the very least, Elder Xie and the others present were not as talented as Mu Qingxue!
A super-grade talent!
Even in the entire Dachu Dynasty…
No!
Even in the entire East Barrens, it was an existence that was as rare as phoenix feathers and a unicorn’s horn!
If one had to describe it, it could be said that Mu Qingxue had the bearing of the sect leader of the Great Mystery Sect!
The sect leader of the Great Mystery Sect, one of the top sects in the Dachu Dynasty of the East Barrens, was also an authority in the outside world!
“They are already so shocked to see a super-grade talent. If your constitution is completely awakened and all your talents are activated and seen by them, how shocked will they be?”
As Mu Qingxue recited the Three Thousand Purity Palace Art in her heart, her master’s voice came up in her mind with particular interest.
Mu Qingxue slowly retracted her slender hand and closed her light blue eyes. She sat cross-legged in front of the stone tablet.
When everyone saw Mu Qingxue’s reaction, they knew that she was going to start comprehending the cultivation methods. Hence, they subconsciously quieted down, as if they were afraid that the noise would affect her.
Soon, more hazy light descended and completely enveloped Mu Qingxue.
New characters slowly appeared on the stone tablet.
Black-level upper-rank Wave-like Subtle Steps!
Black-level upper-rank Fire Thunder Skill!
Black-level middle-rank Wind Severing Slash!
Black-level middle-rank Crystal Light Palm!
Black-level lower-rank Frost Sword Art!
Black-level lower-rank Star Shattering Slash!
Six martial arts appeared on the stone tablet in a row, which made everyone’s jaw drop again.
“Six…Six martial arts and cultivation methods!”
“D*mn, a total of five martial arts and one cultivation method!”
“Hiss! These were all black-level martial arts and cultivation methods without exception!”
“Six black…black-level martial arts and cultivation method. Is this the super-grade talent?”
“In the past hundred years, no one has been able to comprehend six black-level martial arts and cultivation methods from the mysterious stone tablet in one go. Senior Sister Mu Qingxue… That’s amazing!”
Some of the disciples started to stutter.
They had watched countless outer sect trials, but this was the first time they had seen such a shocking scene.
However, it was not over yet.
A strong aura burst out from Mu Qingxue’s body. Just like Lu Zhen, a current of strong spiritual energy rushed to her.
“She… Is she trying to break through?”
“That’s right. If Senior Brother Lu Zhen can break through at any time, why can’t Senior Sister Mu Qingxue?”
A considerable amount of spiritual energy was absorbed by Mu Qingxue.
The power in her body expanded at an extremely fast speed.
In an instant, a surging aura swept out. Mu Qingxue had officially entered the Qi Sea Realm.
Buzz…
More hazy light fell from the mysterious stone tablet, completely covering her.
Soon, a new line of characters slowly appeared on the stone tablet.
At this moment, even the elders held their breaths in deep concentration, afraid that they would disturb Mu Qingxue.
They really wanted to know what level of cultivation methods and martial arts Mu Qingxue could comprehend with the help of the profound insights she gained when she broke through to a major realm.
Buzz…
Golden characters slowly appeared on the mysterious stone tablet. For a moment, everyone present could hear a pin drop. They breathlessly looked at the characters on the stone tablet.
