Martial Saint through Reading

"Granny Yin, that kid is a prodigy who can grasp Destruction True Intent in just one day. Are you really giving up like this?"

"Not just three months, even if it’s three years, I still want to..."

"Old Man Shi," Granny Yin interrupted Elder Shi, "In the past, even if it took thirty years, I would find that kid, but now it’s not possible."

"Why was the Nine Heavens Realm established? Aren’t you clear about that?"

"The Black and White Divine Palace and Celestial Martial Saint Hall are increasingly suppressing our Nine Heavens Alliance. What does this indicate?"

"It indicates..." Granny Yin looked up at the sky, "The cage is reinforced, and a furnace that captures countless lives is already brewing."

"But..." Elder Shi wanted to say more.

"We don’t have much time left, a single prodigy genius cannot break through this refining furnace cage. Only by gathering the strength of numerous geniuses can there be a glimmer of hope."

Granny Yin withdrew her gaze and stared at Elder Shi with a serious expression: "Three days, if we still have no news in three days, we will go elsewhere to seek talents."

"Three days..."

Elder Shi looked solemn, seemingly unwilling to give up, yet had no choice.

Granny Yin lowered her eyelids, she too wanted to find a prodigy who could understand True Intent in one day, but reality is always like this, gains and losses are often beyond one’s control.

"Guarding Imperial Mausoleum is no longer necessary, let Tantai Xiu come back."

"Granny Yin," Elder Shi’s face slightly twitched, "Let Tantai Xiu guard for another three days, maybe..."

"Three days won’t make a difference, fine." The silver-haired elder turned and headed towards the house, stopping at the door and added: "But, I want to personally teach Tantai Xiu."

"Granny Yin?" Elder Shi looked in surprise at the hunched old lady.

"Four months to entry-level True Intent, a hundred years of cultivation to late-stage Qi Sea, he can be called a genius. Coincidentally, I have no disciples under my knee, and Tantai Xiu suits me."

Granny Yin said, and entered the house, giving Elder Shi no chance to refute.

"..."

...

Yan Imperial Mausoleum, Cold Abyss Origin Shore.

A figure sat cross-legged in the middle of the broken Yanhan Bridge, his waterfall-like silver hair covering his face.

But through the gaps in the silver hair, a young man with chiseled features and exceptionally handsome looks could be seen.

This person was the prodigy discussed by Granny Yin and Elder Shi, who grasped Destruction True Intent in four months, Tantai Xiu.

Sitting here was under Granny Yin’s command, waiting for someone.

Granny Yin told him that the person he was waiting for was a genius who grasped True Intent in just three months.

"Really just three months..."

Tantai Xiu slowly opened his eyes, calmly looking ahead.

He felt Granny Yin lied, the time taken by the person he was waiting for to grasp True Intent might not be three months, it could be shorter, or longer.

But whatever it was, he had to wait for this person.

Because, as the Prince of Celestial Veil Kingdom, a genius unseen in a thousand years, no one could ever compare to him.

The person Granny Yin mentioned stirred his competitive spirit.

"I hope you truly are a genius who grasped True Intent in three months, otherwise you’d better not appear here..."

Tantai Xiu’s eyes sparkled with a fierce battle intent.

...

Outside the Yan Imperial Mausoleum.

Chu Ming, clad in black, stood suspended in the air, his Sword Gourd Spirit spread out and probing into the Yan Imperial Mausoleum.

Hmm?

Someone!

He detected a person sitting cross-legged on Yanhan Bridge, and their aura was particularly strong!

This intensity seemed slightly stronger than that of his grandmaster Ji Wujiang.

How could such a person suddenly appear in Yan Imperial Mausoleum?

Chu Ming furrowed his brows.

After brief contemplation, his figure transformed into a phantom, rushing into Yan Imperial Mausoleum.

No matter who it was, if they hindered him from obtaining the Cold Abyssal Flame, then he would fight.

Concealing his aura, he went underground, quickly reaching Cold Abyss Origin Shore.

Observing the shore, the other person did not sense Chu Ming’s arrival.

Under the concealment of Sword Gourd Spirit and Book and Painting Realm abilities, not even a late-stage Qi Sea cultivator, or those of Seventh Realm, could perceive him.

Chu Ming only paused briefly, then continued into Cold Abyss.

But just as he stepped into Cold Abyss.

Buzz!

The black mist within Cold Abyss suddenly stirred with unexpected movement.

Chu Ming’s gaze focused.

Someone had laid something resembling an array within Cold Abyss, and it was highly covert and skilled, even Sword Gourd Spirit failed to detect it.

Right at the moment he triggered the black mist of Cold Abyss.

At the foot of Yan Mountain, in Rock Concealment Village, the wood-chopping Elder Shi suddenly raised his head and retrieved a communication device.

"Tantai Xiu, someone has entered the Cold Abyss!"

The one who had tampered with the black mist of Cold Abyss was indeed Elder Shi.

"Granny Yin, the person has shown up!"

With his words, he dashed towards Yan Mountain.

Granny Yin paused slightly, and hurriedly followed.

...

Back at Yan Imperial Mausoleum.

The meditating Tantai Xiu suddenly opened his eyes, his form flickering as he rushed towards Cold Abyss.

With just a few flashes, he saw a black-clothed youth suspended in the air.

Chu Ming’s eyes were calm, gazing quietly at the silver-haired youth.

It seemed as if the other was deliberately guarding this place.

Considering the previous Destruction True Intent Space, Chu Ming suspected the other was closely linked to that mysterious silver-haired elder and wood-chopping Elder Shi.

Since the other sensed the black mist’s disturbance and appeared here, Elder Shi and the silver-haired elder surely knew too.

Time was of the essence.

"You are..." The silver-haired Tantai Xiu just began.

Boom!

A golden blade river wrapped in True Intent descended from the sky.

Destruction True Intent!

Tantai Xiu instantly discerned the power of the golden blade river and without hesitation, launched a similarly powerful strike, instantly forming a silver blade river akin to the golden one!

Bang!

Cold Abyss shook.

The clash of the golden and silver blade rivers seemed about to obliterate the entire Cold Abyss.

How strong!

Chu Ming was somewhat surprised.

The silver-haired youth before him also wielded Destruction True Intent, and the mastery level seemed no weaker than his own.
