Chapter 784: A Glimpse Of Future (2)

Huang He and the others could only accept the fact that those from Great Ming were truly crazy. Why was he saying all that right in front of these holy land members? Was he not afraid of occurring their wrath?

Su Yu smiled, "I have a stinky mouth. Don't mind me. This is how I am. Please be tolerant of me. I did not intend to belittle anyone."

"We understand." Zhou Hongbo smiled, "Brother Cui is truly a blunt person. You're right. The holy lands are nothing special. It is but a name. We're the same as the various prefectures. In fact, the holy lands were established to promote more communication and unity between the various prefectures."

This was also why the Invincibles of the various prefectures established branch families in the holy lands. Alas, they had failed in their efforts to promote unity. In fact, not even the holy land branches were united with the prefecture branches anymore. This was not surprising. With one branch in charge of the prefecture and the other branch in charge of the holy land, neither side was willing to acknowledge the other as the leader.

They continued traveling rapidly while they talked. Before they knew it, they were far away from any cities. No mishaps had occurred in their journey thus far. Su Yu's disguise, Cui Lang, was a very talkative person. After talking about all sorts of topics, he slowly familiarized himself with everyone in the group, including those who were complete strangers before this.

He wasn't too bad as a person. He was too straightforward, but he did not mean any malice when he spoke. Thus, everyone was quite willing to befriend him. Then again, they also admitted that he could be quite infuriating at times.

Those who were familiar with Cui Lang would say apart from talking about women, he would spend the rest of his time angering others. But not even Cui Lang himself would realize that he was doing so.

During the travel, Su Yu had also been training his willpower. He wanted to push his willpower to the next rank. Only by getting a third-tier willpower and entering the Cloudbreach Realm would he be able to start pushing his characters into the fourth tier.

If the deceit, change, and calm characters could reach the fourth tier, they would become Mountainsea characters. WIth a cultivation at the Cloudbreach Realm, 180 apertures, his cultivation methods, racial abilities, and the talismans obtained from Old Niu, he would be able to easily keep his disguise even in front of Sunmoons.

Even Invincibles would need a deep scan to see through his disguise. But which Invincible would waste their time scanning any random person? He stopped tempering his willpower with his hammer.

He aimed for a breakthrough. His hammer was still capable of further tempering his willpower, but his current priority was the Cloudbreach Realm. He needed this cultivation level to hide from some Sunmoons, including the likes of Marquis Xia.

Things like forming new characters or expanding his sea of willpower were not as important. He could probably use weaponsmithing to further boost his cultivation.

At that thought, he started preparing for his upcoming weaponsmithing session with Zhao Li. First, he had to create a good background story for that. Thus, he started talking about weaponsmithing with his travel companions.

He looked at someone in the group and said, "Little Li, apart from Grandmaster Ma, are there any other great weaponsmiths in Great Xia?"

Grandmaster Ma was the sole earth weaponsmith of Great Xia.

Su Yu sighed, "For profound weaponsmiths, above thirty-seven golden stripes, nine stripes will elevate one a single grade. With forty-six stripes, one will become a middle-grade profound weaponsmith. I did manage to forge a forty-six cultural weapon in the Hundred Dao Pagoda before, but I wasn't able to replicate this feat in reality..."

Several expressions changed upon hearing those words. Middle profound weaponsmith? One could basically treat the Hundred Dao Pagoda as reality. This signified that Cui Lang was only a tiny bit away from being a proper middle profound weaponsmith.

A Mountainsea from a big family asked, "Young Friend Cui, did you really manage to forge a cultural weapon with forty-six stripes before?"

"Is there a need for me to lie about this?" Su Yu rolled his eyes, "But I can't do that in reality. Thus, I am traveling to seek the guidance of weaponsmiths of different legacies. I learned from Great Ming's main legacy, but I keep feeling like I lack something. Perhaps my willpower is too weak. If I can enter the Cloudbreach Realm, I might be able to become a proper middle profound weaponsmith.

Even Zhou Hongbo and company had no choice but to place more importance on Cui Lang. This person was truly talented in weaponsmithing. With this person's talent, he might even reach the peak of the profound grade as a Cloudbreach like Zhao Li. Perhaps in a decade or two, this person would become yet another earth weaponsmith.

Little Li hurriedly said, "No problem. Don't worry about it, Brother Cui. I am quite close to a student of Master Zhao Li. I'll get his help with this. But...I can't promise that Master Zhao will be willing to take a look at your weapon. There...is nothing I can do about that."

Su Yu smiled, "It's fine. That's enough. In that case, let's head to the Great Xia Cultural Research Academy right after we reach the city. To speak the truth, I am very interested in a weaponsmith who has failed to enter the earth grade like Master Zhao. If I could help him complete his weapon, would I benefit from it as well? Each completion of a cultural weapon will generate some willpower for the weaponsmith's absorption. Will this be enough to push me into the Cloudbreach Realm?"

Nobody said anything. This guy should stop dreaming. Him? Helping complete an earth-grade cultural weapon? This was way too arrogant.

Su Yu said, "I'll only be helping. I won't be the main weaponsmith. I learned from Great Ming's orthodox weaponsmithing teachings. Master Zhao's teachings are probably different. He has probably followed the path of the fourth principal."

"That's not the issue." Little Li explained, "Master Zhao is an eccentric. You should know his senior brother. That's someone near the heaven grade. He could have completed the weapon for Master Zhao years ago. But Master Zhao did not accept this help. He almost disowned his senior brother after his senior brother joined Great Zhou."

Su Yu looked surprised, "Is that true? But I remember seeing his senior brother helping Su Yu in the leaked recording not long ago."

"Who knows? But it is public knowledge in Great Xia that Master Zhao does not like Principal Zhao Tianbing. He won't let you help him with that weapon as well. He is being very stubborn about it. He would rather not advance then let someone help him with it."

Su Yu smiled, "That might not be the case. He has an issue with his senior brother, but he has no issue with me. I'll give it a try. If I fail, so be it. I'll take this as a learning experience."

"Fine."

Little Li believed that this guy was dreaming. That was impossible. Zhao Li was known as a super eccentric. He did not care one bit about Cui Lang's level of talent. Even some of his own students were already profound weaponsmiths. If he really wanted to get help, he wouldn't get the help of an outsider like Cui Lang.
