Chapter 346: Is This What a Genius Is?

However, after Long Wu read it again, she firmly believed it was an evil cultivation method.
Because the most crucial thing about the Supreme Emperor’s Scripture was that it could distort a person’s mind. Thinking about it, this made sense. After enduring the double cleansing of body and soul, even those whose minds did not collapse were considered extraordinary. As for changes in personality, that was also within reason.
In Long Wu’s eyes, Wang Kun was originally disliked by the Wang family. Coupled with this cultivation method, once the dark side of his heart was triggered, no one could guarantee what Wang Kun would become in the future.
“Yes.” Su Chen nodded and gave Long Wu a strange look. The two had a master-servant relationship, so the other’s thoughts were no secret to him. He didn’t expect that under Long Wu’s cold exterior, she seemed to care about the common people. This really surprised him.
“It’s just a cultivation method. If Wang Kun is ultimately controlled by a mere cultivation method, then his future achievements will be nothing more than that,” Su Chen said casually.
In his opinion, to a certain extent, Wang Kun also had the template of a main or supporting character. Such a person would more or less be protected by the Heavenly Dao and would not just casually perish because of the Supreme Emperor’s Scripture. If he did not succeed in cultivation in the end, it could only be said that his providence was too minuscule.
“Master, you should have left some backup plans in the cultivation method,” Long Wu said weakly.
“Hmm?” Su Chen looked at Long Wu in surprise and chuckled, “Are you worried that after cultivating the Supreme Emperor’s Scripture, he will no longer be under my control in the future? You’re thinking too much.” Su Chen stretched out his hand and lightly tapped Long Wu’s forehead.
The other party only had a Supreme Emperor’s Scripture that was given by him. If he was so easily surpassed…then there would be no need to stay in the East Barrens anymore.
In any case, what Wang Kun would become in the future was still an unimown. Worrying about this now was a bit unnecessary.
“System,” Su Chen said in his heart. “I want to claim my reward.”
As soon as he finished speaking, a dusty ancient book appeared before him. The words “Emperor’s Fist” were written boldly. Although there were no phenomena circulating, there was a destructive aura surrounding it.
“This… What is this?” Long Wu rubbed her eyes in disbelief.
Her intuition told her this ancient book was no ordinary item. Although it looked old and tattered, the material of the ancient book was extraordinary. There was a supreme air in the darkness that made her afraid as if facing a great emperor, extremely apprehensive.
“A divine power created by a great emperor,” Su Chen said casually.
Emperor’s Fist! This was the first time he had truly obtained an emperor-level divine power. Although not an emperor’s scripture, an offensive technique was equally precious. For him now, once successfully cultivated, it could increase his combat strength exponentially.
As his reputation rose day after day, new praises appeared every day. Therefore, he would claim a wave of rewards every so often. This Emperor’s Fist was the strongest reward he had obtained in the past six months.
“Emperor-level divine power…” Long Wu’s expression changed.
She looked at her master in disbelief, then at the book in his hand. Her heart surged like a tidal wave. She came from the True Dragon Clan, and her bloodline contained an ancient inheritance from a great emperor. But this did not mean she could ignore other emperor-level inheritances. After all, every great emperor born from ancient times until now was a famous powerhouse who had suppressed an era.
“Do you want to learn it?” Su Chen asked casually.
Since Long Wu had acknowledged him as master, strengthening her would also strengthen himself. He would not do anything so foolish.
“No need.” Long Wu shook her head helplessly. “This should be a divine power left by a human emperor. For me, 1 can only reference it. 1 simply cannot cultivate it at all.”
In this world, the human and demonic cultivation systems were two completely different branches. The only similarity was probably their realms. After all, not everyone was like Qin Hao, able to forcibly cultivate various demonic divine techniques with a human body.
If the divine powers and cultivation methods of both sides could be interlinked, perhaps the value of emperor-level and saint-level cultivation methods would drop a level. The conflict between humans and demons would also intensify. From killing demons for their inner cores, it might progress to imprisoning demons, searching their souls, and seizing their cultivation methods.
In any case, humans and demons disliked each other. Killing was just killing, without any psychological barrier.
Su Chen did not try to persuade her anymore. After memorizing the contents of the Emperor’s Fist, he glanced at the dozens of other items floating in front of him and felt a little listless. These things were not worth much, just some spirit stones, pills, and natural treasures. To him now, they held little meaning.
“System, claim my cultivation level,” Su Chen continued in his mind. This was an arrangement he had prepared for the system in advance. Cultivation was specially separated from other items, in case his cultivation and other items appeared together when he claimed rewards.
What if…at the moment he received his reward, there was someone dim-witted hiding beside him, and he just happened to break through? All the good things on the ground would be stolen by the other, and he might even be implicated.
As soon as he finished speaking, Su Chen’s aura grew stronger again. Holy light circulated around his body, and his entire being emitted an inexplicable Dao rhyme as if having cultivated some supreme divine technique with the ability to reach heaven and earth.
It was just a momentary change. Su Chen’s clothes fluttered as his spirits soared, his entire being extraordinary, indistinctly resembling a sage descended from heaven. Saintly Dao rhymes seemed to circulate around him.
“Master, you…” Long Wu’s eyes widened as she stared at Su Chen. In the blink of an eye, she sensed her master had become even stronger. This was a bit strange. She was standing right beside her master yet didn’t see him cultivating! How could his strength increase in an instant?
“I just had some comprehension from glancing at the Emperor’s Fist,” Su Chen said with a smile. The cultivation level boasted by the system over the past six months was enough for him to comprehend his Saint Tribulation.
Now, he had already suppressed all his cultivation base. After all, once he released his aura, the Saint Tribulation would arrive instantly. And once the Saint Tribulation began, it could not be interrupted. If he transcended here, the entire Wang family would end up much worse off than the Spirit Race. After all, the only one transcending tribulation in the Spirit Race was Qin Hao, and it was Nirvana Tribulation! But if he transcended, it would be the Saint Tribulation, enough to cover tens of thousands of miles.
At that time, every single member of the Wang family would definitely be unable to escape.
“Is this what a genius is?” Long Wu was speechless. She could be considered a rare genius in the True Dragon Clan, but now, compared to Su Chen, she felt a little inferior. Comprehending just from glancing at an emperor-level divine power, what if he looked at an emperor-level cultivation method? Wouldn’t he instantly become a saint?
Although her strength was currently much greater than Su Chen’s, at this rate, perhaps in less than a thousand years, Su Chen would completely surpass her..
