Does anyone actually Believes That My Master Is A Mortal?-Chapter 405 - 424: Placing in Death’s Ground to Survive?

Chapter 405 -424: Placing in Death’s Ground to Survive?

Eastern Province.

Misty Mountain, the residential area of the Disciples of Wayless Sect.

Ye Luo, having his outlook on life thoroughly shaken by Xu Yu, wandered here in a daze.

Countless thoughts were flashing through his mind.

Practicing Qi Refinement, one could potentially reach the fifty-ninth level.

So for him, at the Tribulation Transcending Stage, could he also reach the fifty-ninth level, sixty-ninth level, or even the ninety-ninth level?

...

Not to mention the Tribulation Transcending Stage, could the same be done in the Mahayana Realm?

Ye Luo was harboring this thought.

He gave it a bit of thought and soon furrowed his brows.

This doesn’t work at all.

When an average person breaks through a realm, it’s like filling a jar with water until it can break through the jar’s lid, thus successfully becoming a larger jar.

But to try to break through after reaching the peak of a realm, that just doesn’t work.

To suppress a breakthrough, one must hold down the lid of the jar to prevent the water from overflowing.

But if you keep pressing down, wouldn’t the jar just burst?

By the same logic, using mana to reinforce the bottleneck and prevent a breakthrough would, if overdone, not just explode oneself?

What kind of breakthrough is this? This is clearly courting death.

But why could that child do it?

That was the question Ye Luo couldn’t figure out.

How about…

Tricking the second brother to give it a try?

No, better not.

In case second brother gets blown up.

Respected Master would scold him to death.

Ye Luo couldn’t understand.

However, he didn’t dwell on it for long.

Because two figures appeared before him.

Seeing these two figures.

Ye Luo stopped thinking about those issues and focused his attention on them instead.

Both figures had fox ears and tails, clearly not belonging to the Human Race.

“These must be Respected Master’s disciples, right?”

Ye Luo’s eyes brightened, and he quickly stepped forward, wanting to meet these fellow sect members…

…

Meanwhile.

Elsewhere.

Within Aspiring Path Sect.

Above the plaza.

Baize looked at his disciple in front of him, who was deeply struck, with a hint of a smile in his eyes.

Ever since receiving guidance from Chu Yuan.

This disciple seemed to be floating as if in a trance.

Confronting anyone, he would draw his Twin Blades.

Even after being beaten by him, he still insisted on drawing his blades every single day.

Now, it was good.

After visiting Wayless Sect, got a blow to his pride, didn’t he?

However, those few exceptional disciples of Wayless Sect actually came back. They were quite filial, visiting Chu Yuan every now and then.

Baize glanced towards the Wayless Sect side, feeling somewhat emotional.

If his disciple ever achieved something, having half the filial piety of those Wayless Sect disciples would be nice.

“What, still haven’t snapped out of it?”

Baize shook his head and said to Ning Fan.

If getting struck could make this disciple restrain himself a bit, that was a good thing.

But if the blow completely ruined him, that would be a cause for tears.

“Respected Master, why… why are those disciples from Wayless Sect so terrifying? In their presence, I didn’t even have the courage to draw my blades…”

Ning Fan said with unusual shame.

“Those individuals are among the top existences throughout Divinity Continent. With merely several days of cultivation under your belt, you’re like a child in front of them. How could you possibly have the courage?”

Baize couldn’t bear to see him troubled and offered some consoling words.

“But that doesn’t make any sense…”

Ning Fan muttered.

“What doesn’t make sense?”

Baize asked curiously.

“Respected Master, you have a higher seniority than those disciples from the Wayless Sect, don’t you?”

“Indeed, although those individuals have exceptional talent, when facing me, they still have to respectfully address me as a senior.”

“Then Master, why can I draw my sword at will when facing you without any hindrance, whereas when facing those disciples from the Wayless Sect and Sect Master, I don’t even have the courage to draw it?”

Baize: “?”

His smile instantly stiffened.

What did that mean?

Seeing him without any hindrance but lacking the courage to draw a sword before those disciples from the Wayless Sect.

Did that mean he was even inferior to Ye Luo and the others?

He was, after all, a man of the same generation as Chu Yuan.

This rebellious disciple! This unfilial disciple!

Rage flashed through Baize’s eyes.

If it weren’t for the extreme restrictions that the New Heaven and Earth placed on him, he would certainly grind this disciple into the ground.

But no.

Although he couldn’t lay a hand on him, he could get someone else to do it.

He and Chu Yuan were so close.

He was also quite familiar with Ye Luo and the others.

He could totally use them to teach his own disciple a lesson.

With this thought, a sinister smile emerged on Baize’s face.

“Disciple, do you know what is most important for a swordsman?”

Baize asked.

“It’s to draw the sword!”

Ning Fan answered decisively, without a moment’s hesitation.

“Right, it’s to draw the sword. But you don’t dare to draw it when facing those disciples from the Wayless Sect. Do you know why?”

Baize spoke slowly.

“No, I don’t know.”

Ning Fan shook his head as he spoke.

Upon hearing this.

A strange smile appeared on Baize’s face.

Light flickered in his eyes.

He seemed to be thinking about something.

As he pondered, he began to speak.

“Because you lack the courage of a swordsman. As the wielder of a sword, no matter how powerful your opponent is, you have to draw your sword from its sheath. If you draw your sword, you still have a glimmer of hope; if you don’t, you are certainly doomed to die. Understand?”

“Drawing the sword signifies hope, even if you are no match for your opponent. At least you’ve drawn it, and that signifies a chance at life,” Baize earnestly bluffed.

“Drawing the sword means there’s still a chance at life?”

Ning Fan murmured softly, repeating the words a few times, feeling they made a lot of sense.

But when he thought of the terrifying prowess of Ye Luo and the others, he immediately felt that he was not up to it.

“But Master, those people’s aura is too terrifying, I simply… simply can’t muster, can’t muster any courage.”

Ning Fan fell silent.

“Disciple, today your master will teach you another lesson. When facing an enemy you cannot defeat, you must fight even harder. As long as you draw your blade, let go of all defenses, and aim for one full-powered strike, you’ll create an opportunity to turn the tables from a desperate situation, do you understand?!”

Baize was bluffing again, eager to have Ning Fan spar with those prodigies from the Wayless Sect.

To use those prodigies to beat up his own disciple.

“Master, I… I understand!”

Ning Fan took a deep breath, holding tightly to the Twin Blades at his waist.

“Good to know. In that case, let’s go find those disciples from the Wayless Sect right away and prove your strength to them!” Baize said with a righteous look.

As he spoke, he started pulling Ning Fan down the mountain.

To the Wayless Sect they would go.

“No, no, no, please, Master, let’s talk this over, let me practice a bit more; I’m only at the Qi Refinement Stage right now!”

Ning Fan tried to struggle, but he couldn’t break free.

He could only watch helplessly as Baize dragged him down the mountain.

He really wasn’t ready.

He was merely at the Qi Refinement Stage.

A Qi Refinement Stage cultivator, fighting to turn desperate situations around, could he really reverse the outcome???
