Chapter 6: Tattoo

On the halfway up the back mountain of the Ao family, there was a clearing about 500 meters wide. After Ao Shuang received the "Killing Sword Technique" and the "Formless Seizing Finger" from the Spirit Technique Pavilion, he came here to practice.

"Although the famous mountains and scenic spots on Earth are also nice, after thousands of years of intentional or unintentional destruction by humans, there is no scenery that can make one calm down. Only here on the Spirit Jade Continent can one forget everything and fully devote oneself to practicing spirit techniques." Ao Shuang couldn't help but sigh. In his view, to become an expert, one must be able to endure loneliness; it's not just talk. There are no such things as falling from the sky. Even if there were, one would still be crushed by the pie.

To become an expert, one must have great perseverance. As the saying goes, ten years of hard work behind the scenes for ten minutes of glory on stage. Of course, luck can sometimes be part of one's strength.

Taking a deep breath, Ao Shuang began his monotonous and tedious practice.

Breathing, stepping, swinging the sword, flicking the wrist...

On a platform halfway up the back mountain of the Ao family, a figure pointed a sword at a boulder about one meter high, thrusting it repeatedly. The sword thrusts were like waves, each faster than the last, and the sword light spread out like a mirage, casting a dark shadow.

Sssss...

The one-meter-high boulder was sliced like tofu, with each sword mark reaching an inch deep.

"If someone from Earth saw this, they would probably be so amazed that their jaw would hit the ground." Ao Shuang, drenched in sweat from the depletion of his spirit energy, didn't care at all. He looked at the sword marks on the boulder with satisfaction and a faint smile.

The Killing Sword Technique has eleven forms. When the eleven swords are used in a continuous loop, they can make the opponent feel a chill, and those with weak wills might drop their swords. Moreover, each sword move is bizarre and ruthless, making them hard to dodge and defend against.

"Kid, what kind of spirit technique is this? It has no power at all when used." Just as Ao Shuang was resting, Motian, who hadn't been heard from for days, spoke.

"Senior, I am only a martial artist now. Practicing this high-level human-grade spirit technique is already quite good." Ao Shuang knew that Motian was a Demon Saint, and he had nothing to boast about.

"Kid, find a quiet place, enter your mind, and I have something to tell you."

"Alright." Ao Shuang returned to his small courtyard, entered his room, closed the door, and lay on the bed.

"Focus your mind and try to enter your body with your will. Yes, that's it." Ao Shuang's second visit to his mind was much faster than the first.

"Kid, I've been in your mind for some time. I originally planned to have you help me find some treasures so I could rebuild my body, but at this rate, how long will I have to wait?" Motian crossed his arms.

"Senior Motian, I am only fifteen years old and already a third-level martial artist." While practicing the Killing Sword Technique, Ao Shuang also practiced the Golden Spirit Technique in his spare time and broke through to the third-level martial artist realm yesterday.

"Third-level martial artist? Hahaha!" Motian laughed wildly. "In the vast Spirit Jade Continent, there are countless geniuses. Are you already proud and satisfied at the third-level martial artist at fifteen? When I was your age, I had already reached the Heavenly Spirit Master realm!"

"Senior, I am not proud. I know there are many geniuses, but I am not very talented. I am already fortunate to have reached this realm. Your requirements are too high, and I find it difficult to meet them." Ao Shuang knew he had nothing to be proud of, as he had already learned from his memories that just in the four counties of Dong, Nan, Xi, and Bei, there were countless geniuses, let alone the Central Region, which had the most geniuses.

"Hmm, kid, I entered your body for no reason, so we have a connection. Today, I want to take you as my disciple. Call me Master." Motian didn't seem to want to argue with Ao Shuang anymore.

"Um..." Ao Shuang seemed a bit hesitant.

"Kid, are you unwilling? Think about it, after I became famous, how many people wanted to be my disciple and inherit my knowledge?" Motian was puzzled. Could it be that as a Demon Saint, it was so difficult to take a disciple?

"Kid, I want to become strong, strong enough to dance with the sun and moon, to support the heavens and earth! To reach the peak of this world and find out why I am here!" Ao Shuang's face suddenly became serious and determined.

"Good, kid. A great master produces great disciples. How can you learn great martial arts without a good master? Besides, you know that I am a Demon Saint, and my demon techniques are also profound." Motian tempted him.

Ao Shuang was a bit tempted, but he still didn't dare to take Motian as his master. Yes, he was afraid. As a former assassin, Ao Shuang was cautious and didn't easily trust anyone. Moreover, with Motian inside his body, he couldn't control what happened...

"Senior, do unto others as you would have them do unto you. Everyone has their own thoughts. Please don't..." Before Ao Shuang could finish, the magic pearl in the air suddenly moved, flew toward him, and gradually merged into his body through his chest.

Ao Shuang and Motian were both stunned, looked at each other, and Motian instantly appeared beside Ao Shuang, tearing open the clothing on his chest. Ao Shuang also looked at his chest.

After examining for a long time, they saw no difference. "Turn around, let me see the tattoo on your back." "Oh, okay." Ao Shuang turned around. "Hmm, this tattoo..." Motian stroked his chin. "What is it, Senior?" Ao Shuang was worried that the magic pearl might do something good or bad to him, but given the current situation, he had no way to resist.

"I noticed that the black sphere next to the white sphere on your back's tattoo seems to have become more solid and is faintly emitting spirit energy." Motian also found it strange.

"That's good, but I feel like something is still missing. Yes, if another pearl were embedded in the white sphere, it would be complete. Kid, did you feel any changes in your body when the magic pearl entered you?" Motian knew the magic pearl was a treasure of the universe and had its own mysterious qualities.

Ao Shuang moved his body and shook his neck, saying, "I feel like my body has more strength and is more agile."

Motian said with authority, "Kid, the magic pearl is a treasure of the universe. How it appeared in the world might only be known by the Demon Ancestor. Since it chose you, you cannot let it go to waste."

Ao Shuang thought for a moment, "Senior, although I cannot take you as my master, you can still guide me in my practice. I don't think it's necessary to have a formal master-disciple relationship."

"Hmph, you can take me or not, but don't regret it in the future." Motian huffed.

Just as Ao Shuang was about to leave the mind, he turned around, "Senior, you said you need to refine a body. What kind of spiritual items do you need? I'll remember them and help you find them."

"It's no use telling you now. Wait until you reach the Spirit King realm."

"Then I'll take my leave."

Back in reality, Ao Shuang looked at his chest, "Sigh, why does entering the mind always waste a piece of clothing? Next time, I'll go in bare-chested!"
