Chapter 1314 - Top In the World, 9-Stars Secondary Saint!

Chapter 1314 Top In the World, 9-Stars Secondary Saint!

“Am… am I going to die?”

Sun Mo exerted force to flip over and lie on the icy-cold floor as he looked at the ceiling. He didn’t call for help because it was meaningless.

At this moment, Sun Mo’s mind was surprisingly calm.

“Hehe, I thought that I’d feel scared!”

Sun Mo laughed as he felt a little proud that he wasn’t afraid of death!

(Hm, this isn’t right!)

Sun Mo only lay down for a few seconds before he struggled to get back up, grabbing onto the table. He then picked up the goose feather brush and continued to document what he was feeling at the moment.

Some people’s death was insignificant, but some people’s death carried a lot of weight!

Although Sun Mo didn’t crave to become an important character, he wished for his death to have a bit more value.

/ please keep reading on MYB0XN0VEL(d0t)C0M.

At least, he mustn’t suffer a loss!

Writing this data had depleted all of Sun Mo’s strength. Therefore, as he panted and coughed blood, he was unable to leave any last words for his students.

“Ziqi, tell everyone to forgive me!”

Sun Mo’s documentation of his overall condition made him experience the pain and agony even clearer. However, at a time like this, he couldn’t care about complaining.

As he was on the verge of death, Sun Mo treasured this final moment very strongly. In addition to his excessive focus, a tremendous amount of inspiration erupted in his mind. Sun Mo had obtained a lot of books from the Absolute Great Teacher System and accumulated massive experience in the 20 years he had spent in the Nine Provinces. Right now, they were like firewood, while the death encounter was like a spark of fire that lit up the firewood!

(I was constrained by the modern way of thinking. Spirit rune CPUs don’t have to be made into a circuit board. It can also be made into a totem style. After all, there is spirit qi in this world and the totem state can raise the efficacy better.)

(The key to raising the prowess of Spirit Rune Magic Armaments is maximization of spirit qi. It requires higher emittance within a unit of time.)

(There should be ways to make spirit qi display effects similar to atomic fission, allowing spirit qi to become an even greater source of energy on the intrinsic level.)

(Spirit qi nuclear energy can be achieved!)

(The core of spiritual contracts should be to use methods that are in line with local circumstances, using interests as link.)

(Different species have different perspectives. How can they understand each other?) (The truth is that the divine language of spiritual control is a secret art to wipe away the other party’s willpower. It is essentially enslaving and conquering.)

All sorts of thoughts gushed out ferociously in Sun Mo’s mind. He couldn’t care about his regrets and could only work hard to write away, trying his best to document them down and leave them behind.

Even if it was just a little!

Finally, Sun Mo’s right hand had no more strength and he couldn’t hold on the goose feather brush anymore. His body also slid to the ground.

Sun Mo didn’t even experience grief or saw his life flashing before his eyes. His brain was still concentrating and churning out various inspirations, trying hard to ascend to the peak of wisdom.

Cough cough!

Even after coughing up another large mouthful of blood, he didn’t care about his condition or feel any fear. It was until his eyelids couldn’t stay open anymore and his consciousness started to become blurry did he give up on contemplating on things. “It’s enough! At least, this lifetime wasn’t spent in vain!”

His proudest achievement was on how the various policies implemented in the Central Province Academy had helped many poor children change their destinies.

With this, he didn’t bring shame to the great teacher title!

Hu!

Sun Mo let out a long exhale. He could finally take a rest.

After that, Sun Mo’s heart stopped beating.

Knock! Knock! Knock!

However, after just seven seconds, Sun Mo’s body trembled intensely as if he had been electrocuted. His heart started to beat once again. Swoosh!

Sun Mo opened his eyes. A tremendous amount of spirit qi gushed over and gathered together like tidal waves, entering his body.

There seemed to be a voice ringing out from somewhere!

“Child, you’re my pride. Please grow as fast as possible and become the Nine Provinces’ shepherd!”

At this moment, all the lecturers in the Constellation Academy stopped and looked out of the window. Very soon, the senior students also sensed something.

The very last were the newbies who had just stepped into the body-refinement realm. They didn’t sense the changes to the spirit qi, but they saw it.

Right now, the clouds in the sky were moving very fast. Lightning flashed and thunder roared.

Many spirit qi tornadoes formed and passed by while bringing great devastation. It was as if several tens of thick jade pillars had suddenly appeared between heaven and the earth.

“This… This is the advancement of a secondary saint?”

A major character gasped in surprise! Headmaster Sun raised his head in surprise and then disappeared from where he was.

Bai Qiusheng was busy in his laboratory. Suddenly, spirit qi seethed and as it was too intense, it formed a tremendous wind pressure. Swoosh! Swoosh!

The devices were blown over and fell to the ground. “What’s going on? Is someone advancing?”

NIE

“This movement is too great! I don’t think that it’s leveling up!”

“Hold on! I had the great fortune of seeing an 8-stars great teacher advancing to a secondary saint in the past. There was such a great spirit qi fluctuation!”

The great teachers and assistants in the laboratory were all stunned for a moment and then immediately came out. All of them ran in the direction where the spirit qi gathered.

“Everyone, stop and stay where you are!” A deep and stable voice suddenly rang out. Even though it wasn’t loud, it clearly landed in everyone’s ears.

Their footsteps subconsciously stopped.

These were the words of a Saint, Enforced Words!

There was no need to ask. Headmaster Sun had come! The time spent when waiting was the most torturous. Thankfully, a show would always come to an end, and a novel would always have an ending. The spirit qi in the air gradually returned to calmness like a receding tide.

At this moment, a strange fragrance drifted in the air, making those who smelled it feel invigorated. It was as if they were in a forest that had just cleared up after a rain, and negative oxygen ions filled up their lungs. “Head… Headmaster!”

Bai Qiusheng came, asking with an expression that looked surprised and shocked. “Sun… Did Great Teacher Sun ascend to become a secondary saint?”

The others also looked over and waited for Headmaster Sun’s reply.

Bai Qiusheng actually didn’t need Headmaster Sun’s reply to know the result. It was because when he wanted to say Sun Mo’s name earlier, he was unable to do so.

This was the prowess of one with a saint title. Ordinary people were unable to call out the name of saints and secondary saints directly. They must show respect to them.

“En!” Headmaster Sun smiled. “Shall we go and take a look together?”

Sssss!

Everyone gasped.

Becoming a secondary saint before the age of 40… Sun Mo was the first person ever to achieve this!

There’d probably be no one who could break this record in the future.

Sun Mo lay on the ground in the room and didn’t get up. Right now, he was feeling a little complicated.

To think that he didn’t die?

Moreover, he had become a secondary saint?

(What is the lucky goddess up to? Is she planning to make me her lover?)

(You’ve not only rolled up your skirt to me, but you’ve taken off everything, showing me a good view and even wanting to perform an impromptu dance.) Sun Mo then felt happy. Since he was fine, did that mean that the medicine was a success? Wouldn’t that mean that there was hope for Little Wei and Li Luoran?

Sun Mo leaped and was about to go look for Bai Qiusheng when the door opened with a creak.

Headmaster Sun and the others entered.

“Congratulations Great Teacher Sun for reaching the honorable secondary saint realm. We wish that you’ll be able to ascend to greater heights and become a saint early, having students all over the world!”

Headmaster Sun congratulated Sun Mo. He looked at Sun Mo with a gaze filled with surprise, which then turned into intense admiration.

(To think that you really did it? I’ve made an error in my judgment!) “Congratulations to Teacher Sun for ascending to the secondary saint realm!”

Bai Qiusheng and the others congratulated in unison, their faces filled with respect as they bowed.

They didn’t address Sun Mo as Teacher(laoshi[1]) Sun out of courtesy right now, but this was how the rules in the great teacher world were like. No matter how old Sun Mo was, as long as he was a secondary saint, he’d have the right to teach anyone a lesson in the capacity of a teacher.

Even an 8-stars great teacher would have to listen to his preaching.

“Thank you, everyone!”

Sun Mo didn’t appear arrogant but remained humble. “Teach… Great teachers, there’s no need to be so polite!”

Sun Mo had wanted to remain humble and address everyone as ‘teacher’, but he could only say ‘teach’ and couldn’t continue the word. There was no helping it. This was the pride and arrogance of a secondary saint.

No matter how modest Sun Mo was, he couldn’t address other people as ‘teacher’. Other than saints, no one had the right to be a secondary saint’s teacher.

Right now, Bai Qiusheng looked at Sun Mo, feeling so envious that he was going to drool.

Not only was a fragrance gushing out of Sun Mo’s body, but there was also spirit qi turning into birds and young beasts, dancing around him happily.

Having a strange body fragrance, spirit qi turning into spirits… These were the marks of a secondary saint. From today onward, no matter where Sun Mo appeared, he’d be revered as an honorable guest.

“Secondary Saint, may I ask what are the holy words you heard?”

A great teacher summoned up his courage and asked.

The rest of the people also stared at Sun Mo, feeling very curious.

Once a person became a secondary saint, they’d be able to listen to holy words. It was said that they were a gift from heaven.

It was said that if they were to encounter any problems that they didn’t know, they could pray to the heavens. After that, there’d be a 50% chance that they’d receive a solution.

Sun Mo was about to say it, when the system, which had disappeared for god knew how long, suddenly spoke up. “Don’t tell them!”

The system’s voice was icy-cold, emitting a coldness that kept people far away. It was emotionless. “Where have you been all this time?”

Sun Mo frowned.

However, the system stopped replying.

IL11

Sun Mo was displeased, but since the system had told him to keep it a secret, then it was best that he didn’t say anything. Therefore, he shook his head. “I’m sorry.”

“Sigh!”

Everyone felt a little disappointed.

“Don’t misunderstand Secondary Saint Sun. The holy words he heard can only be understood by him. Even if he were to say it out loud, you guys wouldn’t be able to hear it.”

Headmaster Sun helped to explain. “Wouldn’t be able to hear it? Why?”

A laboratory assistant was stunned.

“That’s right. If one’s cultivation tier is too low, they might even get hurt by the holy words!”

Headmaster Sun wore a solemn expression. “In lighter scenarios, one can go deaf. In more serious cases, one can become an idiot.”

Everyone believed in Headmaster Sun’s character and thus didn’t doubt his words. Therefore, everyone wore a fearful expression.

“Alright, you guys have seen what a secondary saint looks like, so you can leave now. I need to discuss things with Secondary Saint Sun!”

Headmaster Sun held great authority in the Constellation Academy and these great teachers didn’t dare to go against his words even if he didn’t use Enforced Words.

After everyone left and closed the door behind them, Headmaster Sun looked at Sun Mo. He was planning to say something, but he held it in when the words reached the tip of his tongue.

(Sigh!)

(I don’t have the right.)

Sun Mo didn’t notice this small detail from Headmaster Sun. Instead, he asked anxiously, “I’m fine now. Does this prove that the medicine is effective? If we reduce the dosage, even if it can’t cure the darkness ailments from the roots, it can reduce it and extend their lifespans, right?

“Sun… Secondary Saint…”

Headmaster Sun was hesitant to speak.

“Headmaster, if there’s anything, you can just go ahead and say it!” Sun Mo suddenly had an ominous feeling.

“That medicine isn’t for treating darkness ailments!”

Headmaster Sun let out a sigh and confessed, “That’s an illusory medicine called Blue Fish. It’s extracted and refined from a deep sea fish.”

Although the various symptoms were extremely horrible and would also ruin Sun Mo’s body, even to the extent of a fake death, it wouldn’t actually result in death.

“What do you mean?”

Sun Mo’s gaze turned savage.

“An Zaiyi’s attacks are too ferocious. We don’t have any more time. We need you to grow as soon as possible!”

Headmaster Sun explained.

“I don’t know what you’re talking about!” Sun Mo bellowed, “Are you toying with me?” “There are things that I can’t explain. Just like how I explained the holy words just now, there are some things that I can’t say out loud. Otherwise, I’ll be discovered and it’ll hurt you.”

Headmaster Sun smiled bitterly.

“Discovered by who?”

Sun Mo continued to pursue this, but Headmaster Sun no longer had any intention of explaining further. “The reason you did this is to let me strive to reach the secondary saint realm?”

“That’s right!”

Headmaster Sun nodded. “But to speak the truth, I didn’t hold too much hope. It’s because this is too difficult.”

Sun Mo was already an 8-stars great teacher despite his young age. Furthermore, he was also the number one spirit runist in the Nine Provinces. Anyone who reached this stage would be considered having achieved success and glory, so Sun Mo definitely did not have enough determination to continue to ascend to the secondary saint realm.

Moreover, to become a secondary saint, one must achieve a breakthrough in terms of mental state, body, and thoughts. One might not be able to achieve this state once in their entire life.

Because of this, Headmaster Sun had no choice but to lie to Sun Mo.

Thankfully, Sun Mo didn’t allow himself to become decadent. On his verge of death, he persisted and didn’t give up on fighting, wanting to release his remaining energy. Therefore, he unknowingly reached the true essence of giving.

Sun Mo wasn’t someone who was all talk. He had used his life to express ‘giving’ and continued to persist even in the final moment of his ‘death’.

Therefore, Sun Mo broke out from the cocoon and was reborn.

Sun Mo understood what Headmaster Sun meant. This was like a ruffian who had spent his life uselessly suddenly turning over a new leaf, wanting to become a good man and support his family. He then continued to do this for his entire life and didn’t give up halfway.

This state must be further amplified by 100 times, and only then would one be able to break through the fog and step into the secondary saints’ mental state.

Bathump!

Sun Mo sat down, grabbing his hair hard with both hands. He then smashed his head hard onto the floor repeatedly.

Little Wei and the others were still going to die!

“I’m sorry!” Headmaster Sun lowered his head. “But I don’t have any other choice!”

“Heh heh!”

Sun Mo smiled coldly and hammered the ground in anger. He then got up, picked up his diary, and returned to the table. “Go out. Don’t bother me.”

(Amongst the inspirations I had earlier, there seems to be a way to slow down the symptoms that Little Wei and the others face.)

“Aren’t you going to go up and see the others? I think that all the teachers and students in the school will be happy to see the birth of a secondary saint!”

Headmaster Sun tried to persuade him.

In his eyes, Li Luoran and the others were definitely going to die. He hoped that Sun Mo could find the meaning of life through the admiring gazes from those teachers and students.

“No need!”

Sun Mo rejected.

[1] The term ‘laoshi’ (old/elder teacher) has been mentioned before. In this story’s context, it is a much more respectful way of addressing someone compared to simply using the word ‘shi’ (teacher).
