Chapter 1642: All the World's People Are My Teachers
Xiao Chuihuo never dreamed he could live another life!
Three hundred years—was it just a game in Jiangnan's mouth?
Jiangnan looked smug: (︶৺︶｡) "Don't judge me by my looks. I can live over three hundred years now!"
"It's all thanks to this!"
As he spoke, he pulled an Incense Bead out from Alternate Dimension!
Initially, Jiangnan had obtained nine beads. He ate one himself, gave one to Li Bing, and Mila and Xing Cheng each ate one!
Now only five were left!
Who knew when Xing Cheng would produce more Incense Beads? The alien mining team had only just set off not long ago!
These were all he had left!
But arranging one for Grandpa Xiao didn't make Jiangnan feel bad at all!
Back in the day, the old Pioneers paved the way for the younger generation with their lives; now they deserved to be repaid!
Xiao Chuihuo only needed one sniff to be completely intoxicated, a look of utter bliss on his face.
(◞⁼̴〰⁼̴◟) "Heavens! What treasure is this? So fragrant? Can it extend one's lifespan?"
Jiangnan mysteriously said, "This is called an Incense Bead! Absorbing it completely can greatly increase lifespan, wisdom, the six senses, and even grant temporary mental power!"
Xiao Chuihuo was stunned: (◞°口°) "I-isn't this an elixir of immortality? Where did you get it? You didn't dig up Qin Emperor's tomb, did you?"
Jiangnan shuddered and rolled his eyes: "How would I dare? This Incense Bead is refined by Star-Devouring Giant Worms devouring planets!"
"Even if a whole planet is eaten, only a few can be extracted. It's extremely precious! But I'm not afraid! I have Xing Cheng at home!"
"Also, I have a mining team near Jupiter. They specialize in eating Jupiter's moons to refine Incense Beads for me! Grandpa Xiao, just use it freely!"
As he spoke, he took out an incense ball, placed the Incense Bead inside, and twisted it! Rich orange fragrance wafted out through the incense ball!
If one didn't inhale, it wouldn't spread; it just gathered around the incense ball!
Jiangnan's eyes sparkled. Sister Li Bing truly was a divine genius—even such treasures she could make!
But Xiao Chuihuo was already numb from shock!
Listen to the things Jiangnan said—eating moons to refine Incense Beads!
So this treasure was refined by that little girl with excellent teeth?
"Since that's the case! Then Grandpa won't be polite!"
So he grabbed the incense ball and gave it a deep sniff, his whole body refreshed. That one breath alone made him feel younger by several months!
It was immediately hung around Xiao Chuihuo's neck!
Then Jiangnan divided the ten-colored Creation Particles from his own body to Xiao Chuihuo, for opening the gate after reaching the peak!
Although only one-tenth of the ten portions remained, that was enough!
Now Jiangnan had only a tiny amount left in his body, not enough to give another person!
Three statues were the limit?
Now Baldr wanted some, but there was no share for him!
At this moment, Xiao Chuihuo's murky eyes glittered with radiance!
"Give me some time. Then I'll show you what the Fire God truly is!"
The formerly listless old man now seemed to regain a surge of energy!
Jiangnan grinned: "Hehe! Go for it, Grandpa Xiao! I'm waiting for you to ascend! I'll go work hard too!"
With a teleport, he vanished!
Xiao Chuihuo sighed with deep emotion. Good lad! He really had made something of himself!
Jiangnan's move had essentially given him a second life, mending the broken path ahead!
A resolute glint shone in Xiao Chuihuo's eyes. He couldn't let his boy down!
The next moment, as Jiangnan left, the floating spell array disappeared!
Xiao Chuihuo, who had been floating in midair, dropped straight down, landing hard on the floor with a thud!
At that moment, his eyes bulged, and his mouth opened wide!
∑(❍口❍◟lll) "AHHH!!!"
A scream like a groundhog's echoed across the entire academy again!
Feeling a needle-like stabbing pain in his buttocks, Xiao Chuihuo immediately lifted his hips, performing a flat-floor iron bridge move!
But his back was covered in huge red welts. The sudden contact sent extreme agony throughout his body!
(◞´༎ຶД༎ຶ◟`) "Aoohohoho~"
The pain twisted Xiao Chuihuo's features, and he let out a scream like a pig being slaughtered, instinctively doing a carp leap to stand up!
But Xiao Chuihuo forgot that the soles of his feet also had two huge red welts!
That step—how could it be endured?
(ꐦ◞ಥ口ಥ◟ꐦ) "Ah ya!!!"
Xiao Chuihuo made a huge leap, taking off on the spot. With too much force, his head even punched through the ceiling!
But his eyes were also swollen beyond recognition!
From the villa came a continuous stream of screams and crashing sounds!
Xiao Chuihuo bounced around the room like a rubber ball—nowhere on his body could be touched!
[From Xiao Chuihuo: Resentment +1001!]
[From...]
For a time, resentment values flooded in. He hadn't said that touching those pulled-out red welts would hurt this much! Damn it!
Thank goodness he hadn't listened to the kid about not removing the cards! Otherwise, would he have survived?
Many people heard the screams!
Zhao Dezhu buried his head under the pillow!
"What is Old Xiao doing? Slaughtering pigs in his own villa? Not even castration sounds like that, right?"
After tossing and turning for a long time, Xiao Chuihuo had demolished a small portion of the villa before finally settling down!
Now he stood on his hands in the middle of the wrecked room!
ኈ～ Hoo
At least his palms had no huge red welts!
Good thing he hadn't wasted those dozen years in a wheelchair! Not only could he do a handstand, he could run 120 km/h on his hands!
With this handstand, the incense ball hanging around his neck happened to be right near his nose...
Perfect—just sniff!
[From Xiao Chuihuo...]
Meanwhile, Jiangnan, in the underground alloy training room of Sky Island, was completely confused!
(•︠ˍ•︡)...
I cured Grandpa Xiao's illness, gave him over three hundred more years of life, and gave him Bose particles! Why is he still resenting me?
So strange...
It would be dawn in a few hours, so Jiangnan didn't sleep anymore!
Instead, he took out his phone and scrolled: "Hmm～ Who should I learn from next?"
If anyone saw Jiangnan's contact list, they might pee their pants, because every line was full of countries' Dao Heavens!
"Let me learn from Wu Zang first. Koronov is also pretty strong. I'll improve my close combat skills with him later!"
"Oh, right! And Old Lady Bei—why are her spirit arrays so much bigger than mine?"
Jiangnan muttered as he directly called Wu Zang via video!
With so many Dao Heavens on Blue Star, those who reached this level all had their own unique tricks!
Jiangnan decided to use this time to consult them one by one, gathering the strengths of many to improve himself!
All the world's people are my teachers!
With Jiangnan's current reputation, as long as he asked, they would teach!
The video call connected quickly!
A plain-looking woman with some freckles appeared on screen, though she was rather pleasant to look at!
She widened her eyes: (*ﾟ口ﾟ) "Arare～ Jiangnan? It's Divine Nan! Wow～ Kakui～"
"Anata～ Mite mite～"
The woman patter-pattered into the living room, the screen shaking wildly, finally focusing on Wu Zang!
Wu Zang was kneeling on a washboard, with a sofa, coffee table, and even a refrigerator balanced on his head!
Jiangnan broke out in a cold sweat: =͟͟͞͞(꒪ᗜ꒪‧̣̥̇) "Ah-ha～ ahaha～ Hello, sister-in-law! Sorry for disturbing you so late. I have a little matter with Brother Wu Zang!"
The woman was excited: (ﾟ口ﾟ)ﾂ "Anata～ Divine Nan is looking for you! Hurry over!"
Wu Zang swallowed: (´-﹏-`٥) "But I haven't knelt long enough, I..."
The woman glared: (งᵒ̌皿ᵒ̌)ง "Come over now! Kneel later! What if you delay Divine Nan's business? You don't even know how cool he is!"
Jiangnan gulped. So his sister-in-law was also a little fangirl?
But your husband is also amazing—he had a hand in taking Rui Sen's head!
"It's fine... no rush! Ah, next time I visit, I'll bring a few hundred Diamond Durians for you, sister-in-law. Those are way better than a washboard for kneeling!"
Wu Zang took the phone with a dark expression:
(̿▀̿̿Ĺ̯̿̿▀̿̿)̄ "Then you'd better not come."
"What do you want? Time! Place! Who to kill?"
Jiangnan's mouth twitched. Man, that was direct!
"No, not that! Earlier you said you'd teach me your special move—how do you do that draw slash faster than teleportation?"
Wu Zang's eyes lit up: "You mean the Instant Kill Draw Slash, right? If that's what you're asking, I'm wide awake now!"
He then dashed off to his home dojo!
"Learning this is simple! Just practice makes perfect!"
"I'll give you the simplest principle: Your brain generates the thought of drawing the sword, then sends commands through nerves to your body. Your body reacts, then draws!"
"No matter how fast your movement, it can't beat this limit reaction time!"
"For a normal human, reaction time is between 150 to 180 milliseconds. With training, reaching 100 milliseconds is the limit!"
"Like that, you can never make your draw faster than teleportation!"
Jiangnan swallowed: "Then... how do you make it so fast?"
Wu Zang grinned: "When you sleep, do you need to consciously control your breathing? In daily life, are you really aware of every blink?"
Jiangnan was stunned, his scalp tingling: "You mean..."
Wu Zang's eyes sparkled: "Since you can't break through the human limit reaction time, just bypass it!"
"Keep drawing the sword until you puke. Make the draw slash become instinct, like breathing or blinking—something your brain doesn't need to actively control!"
"That way, the moment your brain thinks about drawing, your body has already slashed at the same time, even before you realize it!"
"Thus, your draw speed can even surpass teleportation! This principle applies to any technique—punching, roundhouse kicks, even spirit skills!"
"As long as you can turn it into instinct!"
Jiangnan was awestruck: "Let the body act faster than the brain's command? Damn!"
At that moment, Jiangnan truly realized how terrifying mastery of a single skill could be!
Wu Zang had thoroughly studied it!
