Chapter 328 - 229: Seed Player
"Can I obtain this Cultivation Technique?" Mu Can asked his final question. Initially, Mu Can aimed to uncover some secrets about the Immortal Ancient Secret Realm from the elder, but he soon became intensely interested in the Cultivation Technique practiced by the elder.
"Of course, you can, as long as you pass the Third Layer trial. However, since the establishment of Tongshen Mountain, only a handful have succeeded," the elder replied with a light smile upon hearing Mu Can’s question. It wasn’t mockery in his tone but seemed like he thought of an amusing matter.
"Is the Third Layer trial that difficult? What are the requirements, elder?" Though curious about the slight oddity on the elder’s face, Mu Can asked respectfully, as his purpose was to pass the Third Layer trial.
"In fact, telling you this already breaks the rules, but having seen endless years here, I’ve never met such a shameless youth. You even used the tactic of urinating on my whereabouts to force me out. However, seeing that you possess the strength of an Intermediate Martial Saint at such a young age, you might indeed have a shot at the Third Layer trial," the elder assessed Mu Can, nodding satisfactorily.
Mu Can could only blush as he faced the elder. Even though the elder was complimenting him, it somehow didn’t sound pleasant to his ears, rather sounding like a reprimand.
"Please don’t keep me in suspense, elder. I didn’t actually urinate on the rocks; it was just to scare you," Mu Can, having grown thicker-skinned after spending time with Wang Cai, quickly recovered his composure, asking with a smile.
"No more urinating? With that flattering smile, I knew you could be someone great." The elder looked at Mu Can’s expression, even more pleased with him.
Isn’t it fashionable to appreciate honest youths anymore? Why do the old generation of powerhouses now admire crafty youngsters?
"Hehe." Even with his thick skin, Mu Can couldn’t resist such praise and laughed, scratching his head.
