Cultivation Simulator: Starting From The Empress' Palace

”Master, what’s the matter?”

Seeing Lin Su Ya’s expression at this moment, Zhao Fujin asked somewhat confused.

It was the first time she had seen her master so surprised.

Lin Su Ya looked into Chen Mo’s eyes, saw his gaze flicker, then released his wrist and said, ”It’s nothing, it’s just that I didn’t expect that he really broke through to become an Innate Martial Artist, just like the rumors.”

”Yeah! Junior brother, how did you break through to become an Innate Martial Artist so quickly? Did you take some pills?” Zhao Fujin, who had been thinking about explaining the misunderstanding that occurred that day, almost forgot that he had already become an Innate Martial Artist.

It is rumored that he was arranged by the Xiao Family to stay by the Empress’s side, but in reality, he is just an Innate Martial Artist.

But Zhao Fujin knew that a month ago, he was just an ordinary person.

It was only then that his mother bestowed upon him a cultivation technique.

In other words, he broke through to become an Innate Martial Artist in just a month.

”Do you really want to know?”

”Mm-hmm.” Zhao Fujin nodded.

Even Lin Su Ya perked up her ears.

Chen Mo mysteriously leaned closer to Zhao Fujin.

Zhao Fujin’s breath became somewhat rapid.

After all, what she was about to hear was a big secret.

Then Chen Mo uttered two words: ”It’s a secret.”

Upon hearing this, Zhao Fujin froze completely, then embarrassingly hit Chen Mo and said, ”You are so annoying.”

Chen Mo burst into laughter.

Chen Mo wouldn’t say it, and Lin Su Ya and Zhao Fujin couldn’t force him.

”During your expedition to Nanyang these past few days, has your cultivation been delayed?” Lin Su Ya looked at Chen Mo.

”Not at all. I cultivated whenever I had free time,” Chen Mo said.

Upon hearing this, Lin Su Ya showed a satisfied expression and then said, ”Since you’ve now become an Innate Martial Artist, I’ll teach you another sword technique.

Once you master this sword, within the same realm, you’ll be invincible.

Against stronger opponents, if you make the first move, you’ll rarely be defeated.”

Saying that, Lin Su Ya conjured a three-foot-long sword with True Qi, the blade formless.

With a flicker of her figure, she reappeared in the open grounds outside the Daoist Temple.

Chen Mo and Zhao Fujin walked up to watch.

At this moment, Lin Su Ya’s duster was nowhere to be seen, her entire demeanor seemed to change.

Like an ancient tree standing in the cold snow, letting the cold wind assault, remaining motionless.

Her gaze sharp as a sword, the emitted Sword Intent even made Chen Mo and Zhao Fujin feel dazzled.

They couldn’t even sense any True Qi circulating in Lin Su Ya’s body, yet this penetrating sharpness behind them made them extremely uneasy, feeling an urge to surrender.

Noticing this change.

Chen Mo activated his Ancient Heavy Pupils, watching intently.

Zhao Fujin did the same, not even blinking.

The next moment, Lin Su Ya’s steps changed, she moved lightly, and her sword-holding gesture altered slightly.

And at the moment the change completed.

”Swish!”

Zhao Fujin couldn’t see how Lin Su Ya unsheathed her sword, yet the menacing killing intent was already in front of her.

If it were a real life-or-death battle, she might already be dead.

The sword’s sound was like a dragon’s roar, and behind it was an urgency like an impending attack of a million-strong army.

Under the observation of the Ancient Heavy Pupils, Chen Mo’s feelings were even more urgent.

If an ordinary person learned this sword, in a situation where the opponent was unprepared, they could even assassinate martial artists of the Ninth or even Eighth Grade.

After all, Ninth and Eighth Grade martial artists cannot release True Qi to defend yet.

And if they were martial artists, concentrating all their True Qi into this sword would undoubtedly have more powerful effects.

After Lin Su Ya flawlessly performed the sword technique, she asked, ”Fujin, how much did you see clearly?”

”Reporting to Master, thirty percent.” Zhao Fujin touched her head somewhat embarrassedly.

Lin Su Ya nodded in satisfaction.

Then looked at Chen Mo: ”Chen Hong, what about you?”

Chen Mo didn’t want to outshine and also answered thirty percent.

Lin Su Ya’s eyes flickered slightly, then she said, ”Then I’ll demonstrate once more.”

Chen Mo and Zhao Fujin nodded.

After another demonstration.

Lin Su Ya asked again, ”Fujin, how much now?”

”About forty... no, fifty percent,” Zhao Fujin replied.

”Chen Mo, and you?”

”Also fifty percent.”

Upon hearing this, the True Qi Longsword in Lin Su Ya’s hand disappeared, and somehow a duster appeared in her hand, she said, ”Your talents are exceptional. I demonstrated only twice, and you both understood fifty percent.

Don’t bite off more than you can chew, tonight first master what you’ve grasped.”

Zhao Fujin nodded and then asked, ”Master, what is the name of this sword technique?”

”The truly formidable techniques are comprehended under fortuitous circumstances, so they don’t have names. This sword was one I realized several years ago watching a hunter desperately slaying a black bear at the point of death. If it has to have a name, let’s call it Sword One,” Lin Su Ya said.

”Sword One...”

Zhao Fujin murmured for a while, then said, ”Such a simple name for a move.”

”You two practice with each other.” After saying that, Lin Su Ya was about to leave.

But she was stopped by Chen Mo since Lin Su Ya would disappear without a trace after teaching, and Chen Mo could not find her at all.

Lin Su Ya seemed to know Chen Mo’s question, left a message: ”Once you comprehend Harmonize with the Light and Dust to the Celestial Human Realm, everything will naturally fall into place.” Then vanished before Chen Mo and Zhao Fujin’s eyes.

”Master always comes and goes without a trace,” Zhao Fujin muttered, then looked at Chen Mo and said, ”Junior brother, why did Master say that to you?”

”I’m not quite sure either, maybe as a kind of encouragement.”

Chen Mo casually replied, then quickly changed the topic: ”Right, senior sister, what did you want to say to me earlier?”

Zhao Fujin, without thinking much, lightly bit her lower lip and then said, ”It was about the day before you went to war, I... I misunderstood you, took you for a scoundrel bullying the eldest sister and hit you, I’m sorry.”

This misunderstanding, in these past ten days, almost became an obsession for Zhao Fujin, determined to clear it up no matter what.

”So that’s what it was.”

Chen Mo thought it was something else, he hadn’t taken it seriously at all, so he naturally hadn’t minded.

Just as Chen Mo was about to say he hadn’t taken it to heart, he saw Zhao Fujin clutching her skirt, smiled slightly, and said, ”How does senior sister plan to make up for it?”

”How about... I let you hit me back?” Zhao Fujin said softly.

”Senior sister is of noble stature, I wouldn’t dare,” Chen Mo said.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Fujin pursed her lips, considering ways to make amends, ”I can give you Silver.”

”I don’t lack Silver right now.”

”Then what... what do you want?”

Under the night, the two suddenly fell silent, gazing at each other, and in the vast Daoist Temple, there was no one else around.

Chen Mo felt a stir in his heart and lifted Zhao Fujin’s chin with his right hand: ”Senior sister, let me give you a kiss?”
