Chapter 16: Heaven-Shaking Decision

“Eh? Little brat, how did you know I was coming?”

Feng Wurao, who had just leaped through the window, nearly knocked over the teapot on the table beside him when he saw that pair of small eyes glowing eerily in the dark night on the small bed.

He came once every five days, and from the last time until today, it had only been three days! Why couldn't he see the expression of shock he wanted to see on this little brat's face?

“What? Are you going on a long journey?” Amidst the strangeness, Gu Lingsha suddenly uttered this sentence.

Feng Wurao had traveled hundreds of miles and was currently drinking water with elegance. Upon suddenly hearing this, he lost control for a moment and sprayed a mouthful of tea directly into Gu Lingsha's face!

Gu Lingsha flew into a rage. She wiped her wet face forcefully and said through gritted teeth, “Feng Wurao, are you playing with me?”

Feng Wurao froze, then set down his teacup and looked at his little disciple with an unfathomable smile. “And what if I am?”

Gu Lingsha did not continue the banter. Instead, she flipped her small hand, transforming it into a blade, and slashed toward Feng Wurao's chest as fast as lightning.

Feng Wurao hadn't expected her to strike so suddenly; for a moment, he was actually forced to retreat repeatedly. By the time that small body suddenly lunged at him like a swift little leopard...

Only then did he raise his plain robes, reaching out to strike that small body with a powerful wave of internal breath.

“Despicable!” Gu Lingsha had no true qi, relying only on the cleverness of her physical movements; how could she be a match for this undying monster?

With a flip of her palm, she evaded the aggressive and powerful internal breath, and her light body performed a 180-degree rotation, quickly returning to her own bed!

“Feng Wurao, you are despicable and shameless!” The moment she landed safely, Gu Lingsha pointed at the laughing, trembling monster and cursed him loudly.

But unfortunately, through three years of living together, Feng Wurao had become fundamentally numb to the wickedness of this inferior disciple. Hearing this sentence, he was not angry; instead, he took a book from his bosom and tossed it over.

“I was worried before that your meridians weren't sufficiently connected, but judging from that move you just used to attempt to murder your master, you are more than capable of practicing the 'Sky-Shaking Art.' So, this book is a gift to you.”

“Sky-Shaking Art?” Hearing this, Gu Lingsha hurriedly picked up the book in front of her to take a look.

The three characters were written in a bold, flying style. With just one glance, Gu Lingsha was intimidated by the vague sense of grandeur and majesty hidden between the lines.

“This book is something that spirit cultivators across the entire Cangming Continent fight tooth and nail for. The Sky-Shaking Art—whether a person can become a Summoner? Aside from being born with a natural talent possessing a Summoning Spirit, the other channel to achieve it is through the Sky-Shaking Art. Of course, to practice this technique at the initial stage, the power within one's body must exceed that of a sixth-rank high-grade martial artist. And the power currently in your body, little brat, is more than sufficient. Therefore, from this moment on, you can practice the Sky-Shaking Art.”

Feng Wurao spoke all this in one breath, leaving Gu Lingsha beaming with extreme joy! A Summoner! She could finally learn this powerful and mysterious art.

“Can everyone who reaches the sixth-rank high-grade martial artist level practice being a Summoner?”

“Keep dreaming! A sixth-rank high-grade martial artist only possesses the qualification to practice the Sky-Shaking Art. This Sky-Shaking Art is divided into ten stages in total. If you want to become a Summoner, you must cultivate level by level. With every level practiced, a bit of Summoning True Essence will condense within the dantian. However, at the initial stage, it is merely a clump of qi; only when you reach the third level will it be the size of a grain of rice.”
