Chapter 308 - Energy Sea has yet to open (Part 4)

Translator: Sparrow Translations  Editor: Sparrow Translations

While Li Xianyi was pondering, Lu Shu was stunned when he heard the former’s words too, “Energy Sea has yet to open, if it’s not open, then there won’t have the Snowy Mountain.”

What!

Li Xianyi almost spat out blood, “What did you say?!”

“Oh…” Lu Shu hesitated for a moment, the reaction from Li Xianyi made him uncertain. He consciously glanced again, “That’s right, the Energy Sea has yet to open, and the Snowy Mountain coagulated…”

“Li Xianyi’a distress value, +999!”

Li Xianyi suddenly thought of a problem. He just got upgraded to Class A, shouldn’t he be happy? However, why couldn’t he be happy…

Something must have gone wrong somewhere!

No no, scratch that. The old ancestor’s best condition was before Energy Sea had opened.

This Lu Shu, even before Energy Sea opened, there was already sea and even snowy mountain?

There seemed to be something more that’s weird… You were extraordinary!

“Li Xianyi’s distress value, +999!”

Previously, Lu Shu did not suspect the things that Li Xianyi taught him, because Li Xianyi was an expert. Lu Shu couldn’t figure out any reasons that Li Xianyi had to lie to him.

Furthermore, what he said was logical. Something about the accumulation of clouds to become rain, accumulation of rain to become a river, and the accumulation of the river to become the sea. All these were verified by himself, there was nothing wrong.

The only problem was that Li Xianyi did not mention that the snowy mountain would coagulate before Energy Sea opened.

At this moment, Lu Shu saw such a huge distress value. He knew that something was wrong as well.

He tested the water, “What was the condition when you opened Energy Sea initially?”

Li Xianyi replied expressionless, “Accumulation of the river to become the sea.”

“Are you sure?”

“Accumulation of rain to become river…”

“Li Xianyi’s distress value, +401!”

“Think about it again?”

“Accumulation of clouds to become rain…”

“Li Xianyi’s distress value, +591!”

“Think about it again?”

” Don’t go overboard!”

“Li Xianyi’s distress value, +999!”

Li Xianyi did not dare to speak carelessly, because he only knew the situation from the text. He did not experience it personally. So, if he replied wrongly to Lu Shu who was trying to verify certain characteristics, his cover would blow.

The old man asked with a black face, “Are the noodles done? I am hungry!”

Auntie Liu already couldn’t keep up with the pace in the kitchen.

Lu Shu understood now, he made a sound of acknowledgement, “You even intimidated me previously… Even Oscar owes you a golden person…”

“If I didn’t increase the condition, will you set a limit for yourself? You thought that you won’t be able to reach the level of previous individuals but look at you. Didn’t you surpassed them?” Li Xianyi replied unpleasantly.

“Haha,” Lu Shu laughed coldly, “You are still trying to aim for something too high. I think you should start speaking the truth now.”

Li Xianyi sighed, and replied melancholy, “The founder had achieved the most in our clan. Only he could reach the condition of accumulation of river to become the sea. Then, the Energy Sea will open and coagulate into snowy mountain directly.”

This time, Lu Shu really froze. He guessed that he could possibly good hold back. In the end, he didn’t expect himself to surpassed Li Xianyi’s founding father!

And he surpassed him so much more! The other people opened the Energy Sea then the issue was finished, however, Lu Shu managed to finish it before opening it!

What the…

“What is that Snowy Mountain for?” Lu Shu asked curiously.

“The Snowy Mountain is to sharpen the core of the sword. After the snowy mountain opens, the core will coagulate. Furthermore, the snowy mountain represents the interest of the sword. Using the interest to enhance the core, the core would make the snowy mountain steep and majestic. Lastly, the interest and core would become sharp together.” Li Xianyi said.

“It sounds really foreign, but isn’t it just a grindstone…” Lu Shu stunned for a moment.

“You can say so too…”

Lu Shu started to ponder. Okay, he had the snowy mountain as the grindstone, but what about the core?!

He did not have the core, how could he grind anything!

“Then should I open the Energy Sea now. After all, there will only be the core after I open it. Otherwise, what can I grind?” Lu Shu asked.

Li Xianyi kept quiet for a long time, “Then open it…?”

At that moment, Lu Shu didn’t feel good. After keeping quiet for a long time, you answered with such a simple result. Open it? A question?!

He originally thought that he had been taking a longer path because he had no teacher to guide his practising path. So after learning swordplay from Li Xianyi, he had trusted him without conditions. After all, the master was the teacher, preventing himself from taking a longer path.

Did this mean that he still took the longer path in the end?

Lu Shu said with his gums painfully, “Are your pulse always as deceiving as you?”

“Yes,” Li Xianyi nodded

Lu Shu, “???”

The question was supposed to be ridiculous, but how could he simply admitted it like that?!

Lu Shu felt that he should open the Energy Sea first. He relaxed his control over Energy Sea Snowy Mountain and wanted to break through it. However…nothing happened!

It was really nothing without any control!

Lu Shu looked at Li Xianyi with shock, “I can’t open it!”

Li Xianyi’s face was also filled with shock, “Why can’t you open it?!”

Lu Shu’s face fell, “There is a reason behind my shocked expression, but your shocked face made me have a bad feeling…”

Previously, when he fought with the white master, Lu Shu was worried about the Energy Sea Snowy Mountain. However, after the battle ended, there wasn’t any situation that was hard to suppressed. At that time, Lu Shu thought that it was because he had a high control level! Now, he realised that it wasn’t that!

He observed the condition of Energy Sea Snowy Mountain closely. The roaring waves that could break through the Energy Sea initially seemed to be suppressed by the towering Snowy Mountain… Even when Lu Shu controlled it, it was not possible to move the waves.

This was the reason why the Energy Sea couldn’t be open! The Snowy Mountain was too strong!

This was so deceiving! Too deceiving! Too much strength was put in!

“You always ask what to do right?” Lu Shu asked with a dimmed expression, “Now the Energy Sea cannot be opened, what about my sword core? Compensate my sword core!”

“Why not, hold it back and try again?” Li Xianyi said thoughtfully, “You might have a chance to open it in the future?”

He was also speechless. He finally found a genius who surpassed the founding father, in the end, it was still a failure?

Previously, Li Xianyi thought that the batches of ancestors were all extremely good at deceiving disciples, in the end, he was the batch that was most deceiving one?

Li Xianyi couldn’t really accept this results…

Just that, he thought that this wasn’t that easy. There wasn’t logical that he held it till the end but there was nothing out of it. There must have been a different world. Perhaps, Lu Shu would be the first after a long time?!

The two of them discuss for a long time, and Lu Shu spoke about his current situation as well.

“There is still one more method,” Li Xianyi said. “The classical book recorded that someone from the 17th batch destroyed the Snowy Mountain. After that, the stronger and bigger one rose up. This suggests that the Snowy Mountain can be destroyed. Perhaps, without the Snowy Mountain, the Energy Sea can be opened?”

Lu Shu’s face was full of distrust, “Don’t talk to me with a question, everything hurts while listening to it…”

“Li Xianyi’s distress value, +666!”
