Chapter 371: Master And Martial Uncle’s Wild Past

A person’s true value could only be determined through comparison.

Bai Di had just encountered that self-proclaimed fat Divine Firmament Saint and then sparred with Shen Tian today.

Compared to that fat Taoist priest who had cursed him and scurried away after being bitten, Shen Tian’s gracious manner was just too likable.

Bai Di even felt that the pain on his head had lessened considerably.

I don’t feel that bad being beaten up now!

He gazed at Shen Tian with a pleased look. “Good boy. It is Golden Light’s good fortune to have a disciple like you. If you take over the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground in the future, I am sure you will be able to bring it to new glories. If that kid is watching from the heavens, he will be very satisfied.”

As if having thought of something else, Bai Di spoke up again. “Golden Light and I created this Electric Shadow Footwork. It is one of the fastest techniques in this world.

“Golden Light promised me that he would never pass on this skill to the Divine Firmament disciples without my permission.

“It looks like he didn’t go back on his word.”

Bai Di looked somewhat subdued at the mention of the Golden Light Sub-Thearch.

Sadness flashed past his usually arrogant face. It looked somewhat weird.

Bai Di sighed as he continued. “I realized during our fight that your speed is as good as mine.

“But your speed is derived from the Kun Peng Dao and the Feather Immortal Metal. It is more suited for long-distance travel and the void. But it is somewhat weaker when it comes to close-distance evasion.

“Never mind, since you are Golden Light’s descendant, I will impart the Electric Shadow Footwork technique to you.”

Imparting the Electric Shadow Footwork to Shen Tian!?

Envy flashed across the eyes of Fang Chang, Zhang Yunting, and Zhang Yunxi.

This old tortoise might look very arrogant and annoying, but they had to admit that Bai Di did possess astonishing moves. And his speed was downright ridiculous.

After the earlier battle, everyone could feel that Bai Di’s cultivation level was at the level of a peak Heavenly Venerable cultivator, not quite yet at the Sage level.

Even so, his speed and short-distance evasion abilities were comparable to a Sage’s.

This was the miraculous power of the Electric Shadow Footwork!

The group had only seen vague mentions of this Electric Shadow Footwork in ancient records. As a result, they didn’t think too much of it before.

But today, they had witnessed what was truly touted as the “World’s Fastest Speed”. This was definitely one of the most valuable techniques that a lightning-based cultivator could learn. If they could learn this technique, their battle prowess would be augmented to nearly indomitable levels!

...

This is such a precious, peerless technique. And he’s going to give it to Shen Tian, just like that?

He had just been given a heavy thrashing by Shen Tian, but is now so willing to impart this technique to him?

All the prodigies wore strange expressions on their faces as they stared at the white tortoise and Shen Tian.

Is this how it is like to be the true Son of Providence?

He had beaten that fellow until his head was all swollen. But that fellow was still so eager to give him a peerless technique.

This is how a lead character favored by the heavens is treated in life! So envious!

However, there was no use in being envious. This white tortoise was clearly not someone easy to deal with.

Shen Tian had properly defeated Bai Di with his own two hands and was then gracious enough to let him keep his dignity.

That was why Bai Di thought so highly of Shen Tian and was willing to impart his Electric Shadow Footwork to him.

Had it been someone else, they would likely be defeated by Bai Di. By then, there was no use hoping that Bai Di would impart this technique to them.

After all, this was his secret core skill. There was no way he would impart it to just anyone.

“I am a mutated divine beast, a Void Lightning Tortoise. My skills are naturally based on the void and electric charges.

“This Electric Shadow Footwork merges the core concepts of Golden Light’s Divine Firmament Imperial Sutra, and my own electric skills, to create a perfect, peerless technique.

“After my earlier observations, I can confirm that you have already cultivated the Divine Firmament Imperial Sutra to completion and formed the Five Elements Divine Lightning. This is very commendable.

“Given your current foundation, as long as you have good understanding skills, it should not be difficult for you to learn the Electric Shadow Footwork in three to five years’ time.”

Bai Di crossed his front paws behind him and assumed the posture of a lofty senior. “By then, your speed will be greatly enhanced.”

With that, Bai Di used his divine consciousness to impart the Electric Shadow Footwork to Shen Tian.

After he had transmitted everything, he said smugly, “How about that? A real eye-opener, right? I don’t impart that to just anyone!

“Learn it well. As long as you can understand about 80% of this technique, together with your internal Mixed Divine Lightning, it would be enough to trigger a speed that is as good as the Kun Peng Dao’s.

“Then, if you can learn most of this technique, together with your Feather Immortal Metal, no one in the five regions will be able to match your speed.

“Of course, this Electric Shadow Footwork is very complex and profound. You won’t be able to understand it all that quickly.

“But no need to be too anxious. As long as you work hard and with some luck, you should be able to attain some little progress within half a year—”

Bai Di was stunned in mid-sentence.

He had noticed that Shen Tian was radiating with dazzling golden lightning all over. The lightning had more or less engulfed him.

Meanwhile, Bai Di could feel the changes in Shen Tian’s body. His body was merging with the lightning and void.

Amongst all the great techniques, the lightning arts had a clear advantage in terms of speed.

To produce this kind of extreme speed, the Electric Shadow Footwork would transform one’s body into half-lightning and half-void.

The most difficult part of this technique was the first step—how to transform one’s physical body into lightning and void.

Merging flesh with lightning and void was definitely no easy task.

Even the Golden Light Sub-Thearch had put in a lot of effort when cultivating this technique. He had managed to perfect it only after several hundred years.

Meanwhile, Bai Di could clearly feel that Shen Tian’s physical body had already started to transform.

And according to the speed of transformation, Shen Tian would be able to completely understand the first steps to the Electric Shadow Footwork very soon.

And the moment one managed to do that, it was just a matter of time before he could master this whole technique.

That... That... That is just too fast!

The corners of Bai Di’s mouth twitched wildly. He thought Shen Tian was just fast and didn’t know that he also possessed such a great comprehending ability.

This is just absurd!

If one wants to be the fastest man across the five regions, they have to be fast, in all aspects!

...

“Senior, you are right. This Electric Shadow Footwork is indeed a great speed technique. Looking at speed alone, it is even slightly above that of the Kun Peng Dao.”

Shen Tian’s eyes shone with a faint silver glow. His body was also glowing.

He had activated his Connate Constitution and Connate Heavenly Dao Eyes, putting in all his effort into understanding this Electric Shadow Footwork.

To be honest, the name of this technique did not reflect its true potential. Perhaps because the fellow, whose nickname was Golden Flashes, was a weird one when it came to naming things.

But in terms of speed, this technique was definitely at jaw-dropping levels!

Lines of special runes appeared on the surface of Shen Tian’s body, merging with the lightning and void.

After the runes appeared, Shen Tian morphed into a ball of void lightning, completely disappearing before everyone.

Swoosh!

A streak of divine light flashed past, and Shen Tian instantly appeared a hundred feet away.

The speed was so fast that even Demon Venerables like Kun Ming and Kun Yu were flabbergasted.

This is no mere electric movement. This is as good as lightning-fast teleportation!

Y-you managed to learn it already!?

Bai Di’s legs went soft as he staggered backward. He laid on the ground, four legs sticking up in the air, as he started to have doubts about the meaning of his life.

It should be pointed out that part of this secret technique originated from him. And even he and Sacred Leader Golden Light had only managed to make little progress after much hard work.

But Shen Tian!

How long did he take? It hadn’t even been an hour!

And he had already more or less learned the entire Electric Shadow Footwork. He could definitely execute it now.

Just give him another hour’s time, and he could probably master it perfectly! What kind of freak was this?

“You... Be careful. Don’t rush and end up with Qi Deviation.”

After flipping himself back upright with his staff, Bai Di gazed at Shen Tian woefully.

To be honest, even this old tortoise was feeling very jealous.

Shen Tian smiled. “Senior, don’t worry. I will be careful. I want to take advantage of the fact that the concepts are now fresh in my mind to take this technique out for a spin. I am going for a short exploration trip and will come back later to meet with everyone.”

Beams of golden light dazzled the moment Shen Tian finished his sentence.

He disappeared in front of everyone, so fast that no one could see what happened.

At that moment, all the girls looked utterly infatuated.

So fast!

That was definitely something to look forward to~

Meanwhile, all the men looked resigned.

The disparity between the Divine Firmament Saint and us seems to have widened again.

...

Shen Tian morphed into lightning and was able to explore the entire tunnel network.

The earlier Golden Crow Flame tunnel was a common sight in the Golden Crow Thearch’s tomb.

Shen Tian encountered similar tunnels every few hundred meters or so, triggering flocks of Golden Crows each time.

However, with Shen Tian’s current speed, before those Golden Crows were able to touch even a single hair of his, they were already hammered to death by him.

A man needed to be fast!

No cultivation method in the world was undefeatable—all except the fastest ones!

Shen Tian was enjoying the thrill that came with that high speed. Suddenly, his ears moved slightly.

He seemed to have heard a cry coming from behind a stone wall just in front of him. It appeared to be a secret room.

“Curiosity killed the cat. When face to face with danger, don’t try to get involved. Turn in the opposite direction and run!”

Shen Tian nodded and prepared to leave. There was no way he would do anything risky!

Rumble!

At that moment, a door suddenly opened in the stone wall. It was a special secret doorway.

Following that, a plump figure stumbled out of the secret room.

It was a fat Taoist priest, his robes already torn and tattered, his hair and face covered in dust and dirt. He looked very pathetic.

“Damn, why is there such a thing in the tomb? So unlucky!

“Didn’t the Spirit Ore Sutra say that after the Thearch rose, he left behind a place filled with legacies and not much danger?

“Why is there this scary vengeful spirit inside the Golden Crow Thearch tomb? Lightning Fist! Lightning Fist! Lightning Fist! Damn!

“My lightning is useless. Time to retreat~”

...

The fat Taoist priest fled in a manic manner, running and launching his lightning attack simultaneously.

Shen Tian found it very strange that this fatty was clearly executing the Yang Five Heavenly Lightning Technique, but it seemed to have no effect at all.

On the contrary, his Yang Five Heavenly Lightning Technique was blackish and seemed to have been tainted by something dirty. It didn’t look like a proper lightning technique.

And behind the fatty, Shen Tian could vaguely feel a tremendous and fearsome mass of energy. It was like a terrifying presence, which had been restrained all this while, was about to be unleashed.

From a pure energy angle, the suppression exuded by that mass of energy was as good as a Sage’s.

Who the hell did that fatty offend!?

Shen Tian stared impassively at the fat Taoist priest. He then quietly executed his Electric Shadow Footwork, all prepared to flee too.

He was not scared at all. After all, he had that fat Taoist priest as a buffer.

That so-called vengeful spirit might not run as fast as him. Anyway, so what if it did?

Shen Tian just had to run faster than the fat Taoist priest.

Moreover, Shen Tian could escape into the void anytime. He could make use of the Kun Peng Dao and Divine Devouring Vines to control the void and completely suppress his own aura.

As long as he did not reveal his aura, no one, not even a Sage, could catch Shen Tian.

“Longyuan Divine Armor? Don’t tell me you are Master’s newest Saint? My Junior Brother?”

Just as Shen Tian was prepared to leave, the fat Taoist priest suddenly turned and looked at Shen Tian.

He quickly continued. “Junior Brother, I am your First Senior Brother. Master’s first disciple!”

First Senior Brother?

Shen Tian was stunned by the fat Taoist priest’s words.

Isn’t Fang Chang my First Senior Brother?

The fatty looked rather wretched, and he was clearly much older.

When did our sect have such an old disciple?

As if he noticed Shen Tian’s doubtful expression, the fat Taoist priest hurriedly explained. “Junior Brother, I am also a Divine Firmament disciple. I am the ex-ex-ex-ex-ex-Saint!

“Our Divine Firmament Sacred Ground has a new Saint every hundred years. I am the first Saint after Master became the Sacred Leader. I am telling the truth!

“If you don’t believe me, look. I am using the proper Yang Five Heavenly Lightning Technique. Look at my Lightning Fist!

“Junior Brother, help me. There is a very vicious vengeful spirit behind me. Let’s join forces!

“The only way we can escape with our lives is to join forces!”

To prove his identity, the fat Taoist priest moved his plump hands in a crazed manner to execute over a dozen lightning fists.

However, the more he tried to perform the technique, the more Shen Tian doubted his identity.

Is this really the proper Yang Five Heavenly Lightning Technique?

Is it because when Master took over the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground, it was in such dire straits that he allowed this fellow to become the Saint?

Shen Tian was very doubtful about the identity of this fellow.

Shen Tian looked at him. “Buddy, your Yang Five Heavenly Lightning Technique is not proper. It is very difficult for me to believe you!”

The corners of the fat Taoist priest’s mouth twitched. “This... Well... Let me think... Let me think!

“Oh yes! Junior Brother, do you want to hear some gossip about our Master?

“Gossip from when Master, Martial Aunt White Lotus, and Martial Uncle Azure Lotus were young. As well as the wild stories when he was with Demon Venerable Qing Ming and Heavenly Venerable Scarlet Dance.

“I will tell you everything after we successfully escape!”

...

Shen Tian was already prepared to escape when he froze.

Master and Martial Uncle’s wild past?

Oh? Interesting~
