Chapter 269: Can’t Compare

'Naturally, it's Elder Lei!'

Gongsun Zhi was planning to answer this way, but before she could say anything, a voice suddenly appeared in her mind.

She glanced at Mo Xiu, her heart swayed.

Lei Zhen looked at Gongsun Zhi and Mo Xiu, wondering if Mo Xiu had done anything secretly.

But he didn't catch Mo Xiu's Divine Consciousness' fluctuation. Even if Mo Xiu really used his Divine Consciousness to say something, he couldn't use this to attack Mo Xiu.

He frowned, "What? Is it so difficult to choose between me and Mo Xiu?"

"No, Elder Lei, I just..."

Gongsun Zhi hurriedly wanted to explain, but was quickly interrupted by Lei Zhen, "No need to explain, I am not forcing you to choose."

Lei Zhen then raised his hand and a scabbard appeared in his left hand.

Then, the sword in his right hand was put into the scabbard by him, and the scabbard was handed out to Gongsun Zhi, "This sword is what I often use. It is named Thunderbolt Sword by me. It has been with me for hundreds of years and has killed countless evil spirits. As long as you are willing to worship me as your teacher, I will give this sword to you immediately. What do you think?"

Gongsun Zhi's gaze fell on the Thunderbolt Sword, her eyes glowed with a hint of radiance.

She seemed a little moved.

Lei Zhen immediately felt somewhat satisfied, and glanced at Mo Xiu secretly, his eyes seemed to say: "Did you see it? Mo Xiu, what do you have to compare with me?"

Mo Xiu naturally noticed Lei Zhen's gaze, but he didn't care. He just said, "Thunderbolt Sword? What is this crappy thing? I have countless swords better than this in my hands."

Billions of swords were sitting inside his Sword Raising Gourd. The so-called Thunderbolt Sword, in Mo Xiu's view, was really not worth mentioning.

Lei Zhen didn't know that Mo Xiu possessed a treasure like Sword Raising Gourd, and he didn't think that Mo Xiu could have a sword better than Thunderbolt Sword.

After all, Spirit Continent where Mo Xiu came from was a small place and was even once regarded as an abandoned place.

For this reason, how could Mo Xiu have a sword better than the Thunderbolt Sword?

He immediately sneered, "What a big tone! You'd better hope that your tongue won't slap your cheek!"

The other elders present all knew the details of Mo Xiu, and they also didn't think that Mo Xiu could have a sword better than Thunderbolt Sword, so they were also a little speechless.

But at bottom, they had no grievances and enmity with Mo Xiu.

Mo Xiu was not robbing a disciple that Lei Zhen fancied. They didn't need to offend Mo Xiu, and there was no benefit in doing this either.

They just looked at Mo Xiu with weird expressions and waited to see how Mo Xiu would end up.

Mo Xiu naturally saw that no one believed what he said, so he didn't explain it at all.

He just said to Yuan Rou, then raised his hand and waved, a series of twenty or thirty swords flashed out of thin air and lined up in front of Gongsun Zhi neatly.

"You can pick a few by yourself. You can regard it as a meeting gift between us," Mo Xiu said lightly.

"..."

Gongsun Zhi was immediately stunned.

Lei Zhen and the other elders present were also dumbfounded, disbelief written on their faces.

Just now, they thought that Mo Xiu was talking big. But now, Mo Xiu even took out twenty or thirty swords in one breath, and every sword seemed to be quite better than Thunderbolt Sword.

What the hell?

Wasn't Mo Xiu from the small Spirit Continent? How come there were so many high-quality swords in an abandoned land like Spirit Continent?

What Lei Zhen said just now was that as long as Gongsun Zhi was willing to become his disciple, he would give the Thunderbolt Sword to Gongsun Zhi.

But Mo Xiu directly took out twenty or thirty swords and let Gongsun Zhi pick a few by herself.

How come this Mo Xiu was so generous?

Even before Gongsun Zhi was sure to worship him as her teacher, he was willing to give away 20 or 30 swords.

Did he put those 20 or 30 swords in his eyes at all? Or, did he have better swords than these? Or, was it that he was very sure that Gongsun Zhi would choose him?

In any case, Mo Xiu's action was a bit too big. In comparison, Lei Zhen's action was not enough or incomparable at all.

Gongsun Zhi didn't know what happened to Mo Xiu.

Although she wanted to take all the swords in front of her into her bag, she also knew that she could not be too greedy.

Otherwise, it would make people look down on her and reduce her impression score in front of these big people.

After thinking about it, she asked, "Elder Mo, can I really pick whatever I want?"

"Yes, just pick what you like. Anyway, I can take out swords of this quality as many as I want," Mo Xiu smiled at her slightly.

The corners of everyone's mouth twitched involuntarily as soon as they heard this.

'As many as you want?'

'Is it true or false?'

A sword of this quality was almost close to the legendary treasures of the nine continents. What's more, there were not many such treasures in the entire Profound Sky Continent.

But it didn't seem like Mo Xiu was talking big either. Otherwise, how could Mo Xiu send out twenty or thirty swords without any expression?

In addition, Mo Xiu was so blatant, saying he could get swords of this quality as many as he wanted. Was he not afraid of being targeted by robbers?

All the people present were from the same sect. They shouldn't have the idea of ​​attacking Mo Xiu. But what he said in public would definitely be spread out in the future, and maybe it would be known by people outside the Everlasting Sword Sect.

Was this guy really not afraid at all?

Mo Xiu naturally knew that such a show might be targeted by others, but he was really not afraid at all.

It could even be said that he deliberately made publicity.

He wanted to recruit some apprentices and cultivate his own power. If he didn't publicize his wealth a little, how would others know how good he was? 

He also knew that this method was very crude, but it was the most effective way and he didn't have much time to idle around either.

He ignored the eyes of everyone and looked at Gongsun Zhi, waiting for Gongsun Zhi to choose.

Gongsun Zhi took a deep breath and said, "In that case, then I..."

Halfway through the conversation, she immediately realized that something was wrong, and quickly stopped her mouth and retracted the hand that had been stretched out.

Cast her choice of words and the apprenticeship ceremony aside, as long as she dared to ask for Mo Xiu's sword, she must be bound together by Mo Xiu.

At that time, if she did not want to worship Mo Xiu as her teacher, what would Mo Xiu think of her? What would Lei Zhen think of her?

Although she was only twelve years old, she came from a big family and was not so innocent.

She was too shocked by Mo Xiu's action just now and she didn't think so much. But now, she suddenly reacted: "Should I really give up Elder Lei and choose Elder Mo?"

Mo Xiu saw through Gongsun Zhi's thoughts at a glance, and immediately said, "Don't think so much. Since I said it's a meeting gift, then it's just a meeting gift. It's not as complicated as you think."

Seeing this, Lei Zhen hurriedly said, "Sine Elder Mo wants to give it to you, you just accept it. There is nothing to worry about."

Gongsun Zhi still felt something wrong. Then not only did she not dare to ask for it, but she even took a small step back.

Seeing this, Lei Zhen couldn't help but smile, "Mo Xiu, did you see it? So what if you have so many good swords?"

Mo Xiu was not angry, just waiting for Gongsun Zhi to make a decision.

Lei Zhen felt a little uncomfortable being ignored, and said, "The sword is just something outside of the body. Your cultivation base and personal strength are the most critical."

After he finished speaking, he took out two blue-covered books, "I have two copies of the Heaven grade cultivation techniques in my hand. There are also some notes of mine in them, which are very suitable for a person who owns the Phaseless Spiritual Vein like you. As long as you cultivate these two techniques, your strength will definitely increase rapidly, provided that you are willing to worship me as your teacher."

As he said, he raised the books in his hand, "Gongsun Zhi, please think about it."

Gongsun Zhi quickly looked at the two books in Lei Zhen's hands, her eyes flickering.

Indeed, as Lei Zhen said, a sword could make a person more aggressive when attacking and could increase a person's strength greatly, but this thing was after all something outside of the body.

Only the improvement of one's own cultivation level was the real pursuit of cultivators.

If what in Lei Zhen's hands were really suitable for her, then worshiping the Elder Mo as her teacher seemed really inferior to worshiping Lei Zhen as her teacher.

While she was thinking like this, she heard Mo Xiu say, "It's just two Heaven grade cultivation techniques. Aren't you embarrassed to take them out?"

Lei Zhen was stunned for a moment, frowned, and glanced at Mo Xiu. Then he couldn't help saying, "Mo Xiu, do you want to say that you can get Heaven grade techniques as many as you want?"

"Heaven grade technique? The frog at the bottom of the well really doesn't know how big the world is."

As Mo Xiu said, his Divine Consciousness entered Gongsun Zhi's Sea of ​​Consciousness and carved a technique in Gongsun Zhi's Sea of ​​Consciousness.

Gongsun Zhi only felt a tingling sensation in her head, and in the blink of an eye, she found that there was an extra technique in her Sea of ​​Consciousness.

She couldn't help being a little surprised after that.

After checking the contents of the techniques, she was even more shocked.

"Phaseless Divine Art? What level of technique is this?" She was astonished secretly in her heart.

Mo Xiu saw through Gongsun Zhi's mind and said, "It's only an Origin grade technique, not the strongest grade, but it should be the best for you to practice. After you worship me, I will teach you more powerful techniques."

Gongsun Zhi didn't know the concept of the Origin grade technique, but she knew that the Phaseless Divine Art was very powerful.

It was ultimately beyond her imagination, and this technique was simply tailor-made for her.

She no longer hesitated, and quickly knelt down to Mo Xiu, and said, "Respected Master, please accept this disciple's kowtow!" After finishing speaking, she bowed to Mo Xiu calmly.

"This…"

Everyone was stunned. They didn't expect things to develop like this.

As the person involved, Lei Zhen's face was so gloomy that he could squeeze out the ink, and said with depression, "Gongsun Zhi, don't you want to look at my techniques first?"

"Thank you, Elder Lei, for your kindness. But no need. I think your technique is not comparable to my master's technique at all," Gongsun Zhi politely but firmly refused.

"You…!"

Lei Zhen was immediately furious as he couldn't help slapping his own thigh and said loudly, "I object!"
