Chapter 1281: Crippled Sun Mo
Translator: Lordbluefire
Sun Mo’s rationale and experience told him that there was a problem with this book. But now, it was already hard for him to dismount since he had gotten on the back of a tiger.
To Sun Mo whose name was now like the sun in the sky, once he didn’t dare to open this book, it would become a stain in his impressive resume. The haters would begin to use this to weave all sorts of reasons to beat him down.
Moreover, Sun Mo was a man who wanted face. Hence, he ignored the warning of that great teacher and held the book up as he flipped it open.
In the eyes of others, it was just a man flipping a book open, an extremely ordinary scene. But in Sun Mo’s eyes, a gorgeous world unfolded as soon as he flipped the book open.
In this place, there were luxurious cars, beauties, large villas, and successful businesses. All of these belonged to Sun Mo.
Impressive and cool cars that could flaunt his wealth, gentle beauties to warm his bed!
Life for the poor was so bitter, like a lash that kept whipping one’s head. Let alone stopping, even slowing down a little meant that you wouldn’t have food tomorrow.
If you were alone, things would still be fine as one could subsist on wild herbs and grain chaff. But what about those with wives and kids?
If there was a choice, who would want to work hard?
Who didn’t want to enjoy benefits from being born in wealth or encountering good luck and becoming rich overnight? Or be good-looking so cougars would keep you as their toyboy?
Sun Mo was also tired. He wanted to relax completely and tour this world freely, sightseeing in the mountains, enjoying bedtime with ladies while being drunk daily.
“Teacher Sun? Teacher Sun?”
The great teachers called out Sun Mo’s name but discovered that he remained still.
“It’s over, he’s mesmerized.”
An old great teacher sighed.
“Captain obvious.”
Someone snorted in disdain. “Why didn’t you warn him earlier?’
“It’s because I felt that Teacher Sun might be able to succeed. But from the looks of things now, it doesn’t seem that he can.”
The old great teacher shook his head.
“Don’t be in a daze anymore. Let’s quickly go and tell this to the headmaster!”
Everyone hurried out.
A while later, Wei Ziyou came and stood at the side as he stared at Sun Mo with a heavy expression.
He had no solution either.
This book would create the most beautiful dreamscape for those who read it. If one deciphered it completely and could walk out of the dreamscape, their heart state would improve. But if they got lost in the illusion world, they would be mesmerized completely until they died.
In the over ten thousand years of history of Jixia Academy, only 19 people had succeeded in walking out from the dreamscape. It sounded plenty, but one must know that these 19 people were either secondary saints or saints when they read this book.
The surrounding great teachers were as quiet as cicadas in the winter. They were deeply afraid of being reprimanded by Wei Ziyou.
“Just disperse!”
Wei Ziyou sighed. He had permitted Sun Mo to read this book because he also had the notion of testing him and teasing him. But now, he regretted it.
If Sun Mo couldn’t break the dreamscape, the great teacher world would lose a
treasure.
“Teacher Sun, wake up!”
Wei Ziyou called out as a golden light shone from him.
This was Profound Words and could forcibly make someone listen to his words. He was trying to force Sun Mo awake.
Now that this halo was cast by a saint, it naturally had immense power.
“Mn?”
Sun Mo turned his head and looked at Wei Ziyou. “What’s the matter?”
“There are five more days until the lectures. You should make your preparations early.”
Wei Ziyou reminded him.
“I know!”
After Sun Mo finished speaking, he lowered his head and continued reading that book.
He stood there for an entire day and night and didn’t shift his location.
The students also came, and all of them were very worried. Although Sun Mo would still converse with them, it was clear that he was distracted. Moreover, he would resume reading after he finished talking with them.
“W…would something bad happen to Teacher?”
Lu Zhiruo was worried and started crying.
“Why are you guys so dejected? Be more confident, Teacher will definitely conquer that book!”
Li Ziqi berated.
The news of Sun Mo being mesmerized by the book spread around the entire school during that day.
For the classes on the second day, Sun Mo didn’t head there, and this caused many people to feel that Sun Mo was finished, that he was nothing but a cripple now.
For the sake of trying to reach the ancestor level, Mei Yazhi had been in her alchemy chamber these few years. Now when she heard this news about Sun Mo, she could no longer sit still.
“Teacher, you can’t leave now. If you do, this cauldron of pills would be wasted!”
Her disciple saw Mei Yazhi wanting to leave and grew anxious. The value of the pills here was worth tens of thousands of spirit stones. It would be too much of a pity if they were wasted.
“Just let them be wasted!”
Mei Ziyu angrily cursed. (My son-in-law is about to be crippled, why would I still care about this cauldron of pills?)
(Hmph, if something happens to my son-in-law, I will annihilate the clans of those who urged him to ‘read’ that book.)
Mei Yazhi angrily rushed to the Heaven-Ask Library and headed straight to the fifth-floor, rushing to Sun Mo.
“Sun Mo, stop reading. All these illusions you are seeing are falsehoods!”
Mei Yazhi’s father had told her before that if her cultivation realm hadn’t reached the Secondary Saint level, she must never flip through this book.
“Aunty Mei.”
Sun Mo greeted. After that, he revealed a bitter-looking and vexed expression. “I don’t want to work hard anymore!”
“Ah?”
Mei Yazhi didn’t understand what Sun Mo meant, but at this moment, he definitely needed people to console him. Hence, she walked toward Sun Mo’s side.
“Are you tired? Just take a break then. Look at the beautiful scenery in the distance. Just wait until you are fully recovered before you set off on your path again.”
Bzz
Priceless Advice activated.
Sun Mo’s expression turned gentle.
(Sigh, this child is really tired!)
It was indeed so when she thought about it. Sun Mo was so young but already had such major achievements. How much sweat and effort did he put in behind everyone’s back? There was no need to mention the others following his example. They would be so scared that they would lose control of their bowels when they heard about it.
Mei Yazhi’s motherly love overflowed and involuntarily embraced Sun Mo as she patted his back.
“If you have any difficulties in the future, feel free to look for your m…Aunty Mei!”
Mei Yazhi almost said the word ‘mother-in-law’.
“Aunty Mei, what do you want me to do?”
“Mn?”
Mei Yazhi could clearly feel that Sun Mo’s mental state was not in good condition. She actually wanted to say ‘just marry my daughter.’ But no matter what, she was from a prestigious clan and she felt embarrassed to say something so blunt.
“Help me to concoct a pill?”
Mei Yazhi suggested. (In any case, I have to try and make Sun Mo give up reading this book first.)
“I have no interest in alchemy!”
Sun Mo frowned. However, it wasn’t too good for him to reject a request from Aunt Mei. Hence, he continued. “But let me give you an alchemy prescription.”
Sun Mo recalled the detailed prescription for the (Heaven and Earth Soul Returnal Pill] and his right hand glowed with white light.
After that, he aimed a punch toward Mei Yazhi’s head.
Boom!
A white ball of light entered Mei Yazhi’s mind and germinated instantly in her neurons.
“You…”
Mei Yazhi bitterly smiled, mentally musing that Sun Mo was too brash. For great teacher halos like Soul Imprint and Enlightenment Provision, other great teachers usually wouldn’t accept them. What if their world view, world values, and world ideology changed?
Some despicable dark great teachers would use Enlightenment Provision to change the world view, world values, and world ideology of kids and transform them into puppets.
But in the blink of an eye, Mei Yazhi no longer cared about this because the prescription Sun Mo had passed mentally to her was simply too valuable.
“T…this…”
Mei Yazhi was stunned. “Teacher Mei, are you okay?”
“Brat, what did you do to Teacher Mei?”
“Why are you not hurrying up to apologize? Don’t force me to smash your head!”
Those males in love with Mei Yazhi immediately jumped out when they saw this scene, hoping that they could gain a favorable impression from her.
“Why are you guys being so noisy?”
Mei Yazhi berated.
She knew that she should immediately rush back to her alchemy chamber as her mind was filled with inspiration. But if she left like this after obtaining Sun Mo’s alchemy prescription, wouldn’t that seem a little emotionless?
Even for Pan Jinlian, before she poisoned her husband, she washed his feet and slept with him a few times first. Hence, she couldn’t possibly be more inferior than Pan Jinlian, right?
Oh yes, this Pan Jinlian character was in a book written by Sun Mo.
Luckily, Mei Yazhi spotted her daughter in the crowd with a single glance.
“Ziyu, take good care of Sun Mo!”
Mei Yazhi reminded her. “If something happened to him, I will peel your skin!”
“Ah?”
Mei Ziyu was stunned. (Am I still your birth daughter? Why are you treating Sun Mo so well?)
(Wait a minute, could it be that you have some nefarious thoughts toward Sun Mo?)
In an instant, Mei Ziyu’s tiny face turned pale white. If she had to vie with her mother for a man, her petite figure would surely lose.
Those males around here who were fond of Mei Yazhi were like they just got struck by thunder.
(What’s the meaning of this?)
(Is Mei Yazhi already planning to treat Sun Mo as her son-in-law?)
Mei Yazhi rushed back to her alchemy chamber with her fastest speed, leaving behind a group of people with dumbfounded expressions.
“Quick, clean the pill furnace!”
As Mei Yazhi instructed, she sat down and took out a writing brush to record all the ingredients that were required.
“Teacher, although the pills are destroyed, we can still make good use of the medicinal dregs.”
The disciple persuaded.
She truly felt heartache. The alchemy pills had value over tens of thousands of spirit stones, and they would be wasted just like this. (Teacher, you are such a wastrel.)
“Luckily, I went to see Sun Mo or I would have regretted my entire life!”
Mei Yazhi rolled her eyes. “Don’t talk nonsense. Quickly go and clean the furnace. Later on, we are going to concoct a divine pill.”
“Divine pill?”
The disciple blinked his eyes. (Are you sure this is the correct term?)
“Is the Heaven and Earth Soul Returnal Pill a divine pill or not?”
Mei Yazhi bragged.
“What?” The disciple was badly shocked. “Wasn’t that lost long ago?”
The alchemy pills in the Nine Provinces were divided into tiers. The better the effect, the higher the tier.
The Heaven and Earth Soul Returnal Pill was something that could cause anyone whose mind or soul was damaged to fully recover. Simply speaking, it was one of the strongest pills for the soul-type domain.
For example, if a great teacher’s soul died, leaving behind an empty body, if they consumed this pill, their body would immediately make use of the remnant soul aura within it to reforge their soul anew.
Mental problems, retardation, depression, this pill could cure anything. However, because the effect of this alchemy pill was overly strong, everyone wanted it. Hence, in the past, massacres had occurred for the sake of seizing the pill prescription to the point where it was eventually lost in time.
“Teacher Sun gave it to me!”
Mei Yazhi also felt that she now owed Sun Mo a favor that was too huge to repay. However, she also felt reluctant to give this up. After all, if she succeeded in concocting this pill, her current alchemy skills would improve tremendously, and her status in the alchemy world would surge higher.
“Ah? But why?”
The disciple was dumbstruck. She almost blurted was Sun Mo a retard?
This alchemy prescription was worth 100 cities!
Even if this was used as a dowry, the value was more than enough to marry both Mei Yazhi and Mei Ziyu, and Sun Mo would still have lost out.
“Maybe he wants me to concoct this pill so he can treat the old headmaster of the Central Province Academy?”
This was the only reason Mei Yazhi could think of. “Aiya, stop talking nonsense and act quickly!”
Sun Mo actually had this intention. This alchemy prescription was something he had obtained from a chest after he became a 7-stars. Since he didn’t know how to concoct pills, he could only ask others to help.
Through his connection with Mei Ziyu, Mei Yazhi was undoubtedly the most reliable one.
If it wasn’t for the fact that Mei Yazhi was always in the alchemy chamber and it wasn’t convenient for Sun Mo to disturb her, he would have long since given her the prescription.
The date for the Jixia Rostrum Lecture was about to arrive, but Sun Mo still showed no signs of regaining his senses.
How worrisome!
