Chapter 332: Chapter 204: Zhen Thunder

Li Tingkui was utterly baffled.

He had even pulled in Yang Changfeng to discuss it, wondering if his own teaching ability was lacking.

Otherwise, after all this time, why hadn’t Su Mu’s Li Fire Realm reached the Perfection Realm?

From start to finish, he never once suspected that the problem was with Su Mu.

Someone in the Rebirth Realm who could cultivate four different Realms to the Great Success Realm, and all without any guidance—could such a person have a problem with their aptitude?

What a joke!

Su Mu’s aptitude was definitely not the issue. The only explanation was that his—Li Tingkui’s—teaching methods were flawed!

Inside his room, Su Mu was just as exasperated.

A Core Formation Realm expert who had comprehended his own Vision was explaining the Li Fire Realm to him day and night, constantly demonstrating it at the Perfection Realm, to the point where the man was about to collapse from exhaustion.

By all rights, Su Mu’s Li Fire Realm should have broken through by now.

After watching for so many days, even Xu Chongyuan, who hadn’t understood the Li Fire Realm at all before, had now successfully comprehended it.

Though he had only just scratched the surface.

When a Commander-in-Chief demonstrates his Realm so unreservedly, even a blockhead should be enlightened.

’I’m really not the kind of genius you think I am.’

Su Mu muttered to himself, ’I am where I am today because of my hard work and sweat.’

[Name: Su Mu]

[Identity: Deputy Envoy (Acting), Silver-faced Killer (Concurrent), Taiping Captain (5th Rank)]

[Points: 22,000]

[Realm: Rebirth Realm (Elevenfold Blood Exchange, Body Tempering Extreme Realm)]

[Divine Techniques: Indestructible Golden Body, Blood Body]

[Cultivation Technique: Four Symbols Rebirth Technique (Cyan Dragon Body (Great Success), White Tiger Body (Perfection), Black Tortoise Body (Perfection), Vermilion Bird Body (Perfection))...]

[Martial Arts: Li Fire Realm (Great Success), Kan Water Realm (Great Success), Xun Wind Realm (Great Success), Gen Mountain Realm (Great Success), Archery (Perfection)]

Li Tingkui’s efforts over the past several days weren’t entirely without effect.

Originally, it would have cost Su Mu 50,000 Points to advance his Li Fire Realm to the Perfection Realm.

Now, it only required 30,000 Points.

In other words, even without Li Tingkui, Su Mu could still advance his Li Fire Realm to the Perfection Realm in another nine days.

With their efforts combined, it shouldn’t take nine days; four or five should be enough.

The only question was whether Li Tingkui would continue his demonstrations.

’I’ve got to give Li Tingkui a taste of progress, otherwise, what will I do if he gets discouraged and stops teaching me?’

Su Mu muttered to himself.

He silently took out several martial technique manuals he had collected.

Martial techniques from the Thunder Shock Lineage.

...

When Li Tingkui appeared in Su Mu’s small courtyard, sporting a pair of dark circles under his eyes, Su Mu was in the middle of practicing his blade.

The sound of wind and thunder echoed through the yard.

Li Tingkui’s eyes immediately lit up.

What did he see?

The Thunder Shock Realm!

"You’ve comprehended the Thunder Shock Realm?"

Li Tingkui’s figure flashed forward. He snatched the blade from Su Mu’s hand, interrupting him, and demanded hoarsely.

"After seeing Lord Li’s Vision, I had a bit of an epiphany. I’ve been trying it out for the past few days, and I accidentally comprehended the Thunder Shock Realm."

Su Mu said nonchalantly.

Li Tingkui opened his mouth, but no sound came out.

He was already cursing up a storm in his head.

’Accidentally?’

’You call this *accidentally*?’

’Accidentally comprehending a whole new Realm?’

’I’d love to have an ’accident’ like that myself!’

’I’m a damn Core Formation Realm expert, and even for me, comprehending a new Realm from scratch isn’t that easy, alright?’

’So that’s it! No wonder your Li Fire Realm hasn’t reached the Perfection Realm after all this time!’

’You’ve been focusing all your energy on comprehending the Thunder Shock Realm; it’d be a miracle if your Li Fire Realm reached Perfection!’

"Su Mu, did what I told you before just go in one ear and out the other?"

Li Tingkui said irritably. "A jack of all trades is a master of none.

A single Realm at the Perfection Realm is far more powerful than two or three at the Great Success Realm.

Don’t bite off more than you can chew!"

Even as he said it, Li Tingkui didn’t have much conviction in his own words.

’Does conventional wisdom really apply to a guy who can casually comprehend an entirely new Realm?’

"I understand. I just got excited and couldn’t help myself."

Su Mu said, "From now on, I plan to focus all my efforts on comprehending the Li Fire Realm.

Ten days. Give me ten days, and I will definitely bring the Li Fire Realm to the Perfection Realm."

"You don’t have to put so much pressure on yourself."

Li Tingkui said, "Come, I’ll keep teaching you. I thought of a new method last night. Let me demonstrate!"

Soon, flames rose within the small courtyard, bathing half the sky in a crimson glow.

...

"The Thunder Shock Realm?"

A look of surprise appeared on Yang Changfeng’s face.

"He comprehended the Thunder Shock Realm in such a short amount of time?"

Yang Changfeng’s face filled with admiration. The Li Fire Realm and the Thunder Shock Realm were the most powerful offensive Realms among the Eight Original Primordial Realms.

It was because Li Tingkui had comprehended these two Realms that he was so belligerent—and, more importantly, such a fearsome fighter.

Could it be that Su Mu was going to become a second Li Tingkui?

’No, how could Li Tingkui possibly compare to Su Mu? At Su Mu’s age, Li Tingkui was nowhere near his level.’

Yang Changfeng mused.

’Since he has comprehended the Thunder Shock Realm, I suppose I can give him a gift.’

Yang Changfeng mused.

Su Mu had saved Hujue Pass, and Yang Changfeng had been wondering how to repay him. He’d been at a loss before, but now he had an idea.

...

「On the ninth day.」 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ

Li Tingkui demonstrated the Li Fire Realm once again.

His face was pale, and he looked utterly exhausted.
