Chapter 974: Chapter 978: Hope, Disappointment

“Um, how should I say this…”

Xia Liu was a bit troubled. Guo Po was merely a martial artist, and he probably hadn’t come across cultivators…

“For example, when someone is circulating a spell, they can’t absorb the energy outside their body and can feel their meridians are blocked.”

“Energy outside the body? Are you referring to ancient cultivators?”

Suddenly, Guo Po was startled.

According to records, ancient cultivators were not martial artists, but they improved themselves by absorbing powerful external gases.

This power was so tremendous that its display was enough to destroy heaven and earth.

Sadly, later it gradually declined and eventually evolved into the current martial artist.

“You know?”

Xia Liu was a bit surprised; being unable to absorb spiritual energy might be common during the Cultivator Era.

Unfortunately, he couldn’t access the records from that era.

Maybe Guo Po could provide him a surprise.

“I’ve only seen some remaining materials; I don’t know the specifics. Could it be that Daoist Fellow Xia is of that cultivation system?”

Guo Po’s voice became tremulous.

Perhaps that’s indeed the case!

Ever since Xia Liu appeared, he had showcased that supreme and distinct top-tier skill from ordinary martial artists.

A young person like him, unless he had supreme talent, how could his martial arts be so powerful?

Now, Guo Po seemed to have discovered something remarkable, that Xia Liu was not a martial artist!

But rather, a high-strength cultivator akin to those in ancient times!

“I won’t hide it from Daoist Fellow Guo. My cultivation system is not that of martial artists, but of ancient times’ cultivators.”

“I see! I see!”

No wonder Xia Liu could learn the two supreme martial arts skills left by the ancestors so quickly!

And their power was 80% of what the ancestors had!

This definitely isn’t a coincidence!

But rather Xia Liu and the ancestors share the same cultivation system!

I see!

The question that troubled Guo Po for several days was finally solved.

“Daoist Fellow Guo, have you seen records like this? Sensing nature’s spiritual energy, but unable to channel it into the body?”

Xia Liu smiled lightly, perhaps his movement technique had already been exposed.

But even if known, it wouldn’t matter now. With his current strength, almost no martial artist in the Warrior Realm could contend with him.

Just the prestige he showed yesterday won’t be challenged by anyone for decades.

“Actually, the ancient scriptures of the Guo family are somewhat incomplete, and the script is very hard to understand; I don’t have much information either.”

Guo Po smiled bitterly, an ancient cultivator; he, a mere martial artist, how could he understand it?

“Is that so, then I have troubled you.”

Though Xia Liu was helpless, through this conversation, he found the right consultant.

“Not being able to help you, I feel uneasy too…”

“Daoist Fellow Guo, don’t say that, the problem I encountered surpasses your range of understanding. If it’s a martial artist, you would surely handle it effortlessly.”

“Haha! Now that you say it, that’s true.”

“Then I’ll go back first; in the coming days, I ask Daoist Fellow Guo to take charge of some things.”

“You’re welcome. The affairs of the Osmanthus Sect are my affairs too. If possible, I’d also like to apply for an elder or some position.”

“Hmm? If Daoist Fellow Guo has that thought, it’s indeed a blessing for the Osmanthus Sect. I’ll immediately transmit the message to Tie Shan, and the Osmanthus Sect will rely on you guys in the future.”

Xia Liu couldn’t help but feel excited. If Guo Po had such a thought, the future Osmanthus Sect would truly be the number one in the world.

“There’s no hurry. In the future, my two brothers and I might stay here longer. The rivers and mountains here are beautiful, and there’s a wine fragrance further down that I cannot forget.”

“Haha! That’s Osmanthus Wine produced by Osmanthus Village. If Daoist Fellow Guo likes it, I’ll have someone make arrangements.”

“Then I won’t stand on ceremony.”

Guo Po gladly said with a smile.

“Daoist Fellow Guo, no need for formality. Also, when Osmanthus Sect has enough foundation, I’ll bring out the ancient cultivation techniques. Whether they can succeed depends on their fortune.”

“Ancient cultivation techniques!”

“Is Daoist Fellow Guo interested too?”

“To be honest, the Guo family has been handed down ancestor dharma techniques for generations, but unfortunately, no one has been able to successfully cultivate them…”

Guo Po had passed the age of striving. Over the years, no one in the Guo family has been able to cultivate the mysterious techniques left by the ancestors.

“I see, then we’ll speak about it later. I’ll consult a few friends first.”

“Okay, I hope Daoist Fellow Xia can resolve this issue soon.”

“Thank you, Daoist Fellow, for your blessing, I will definitely solve it.”

After expressing thanks, Xia Liu immediately set out, and before leaving, he used divine consciousness sound transmission to inform Tie Shan about Guo Po’s matter.

In the future, the Osmanthus Sect would be managed by them.

Of course, Xia Liu also had thoughts that Guo Po and others are innate martial artists, who might need precious cultivation resources in the future.

Xia Liu would try his best to find a way to obtain them; otherwise, he really couldn’t be at ease.

After giving instructions, Xia Liu returned to the villa area.

This time, his destination was Lin Xiaotian’s villa.

His divine sense enveloped the entire villa; Lin Xiaotian, Bai Lili, Ouyang Lingtian, and Ye Xuan all opened their eyes simultaneously.

Three minutes later, the four of them immediately came to the hall.

“My goodness, what’s going on? I just fell asleep.”

Lin Xiaotian’s morning grumpiness had long been rectified by Bai Lili, otherwise, he might have scolded Xia Liu.

“It’s now almost five in the morning, Xia Liu, are you trying to stir something up?”

Ye Xuan also yawned, she had just managed to fall asleep.

But she was just joking; at this time, gathering everyone meant Xia Liu might have encountered something tricky.

“Everyone, please sit down; I probably encountered a troublesome issue.”

“Hmm? Not joking?”

Ouyang Lingtian looked at Xia Liu with some disbelief. This guy could run into trouble?

For him, troublesome things might just be trivial matters.

“Not joking, the thing is like this…”

Xia Liu looked serious and recounted Guo Man’s matter in full detail.

Although waking everyone up in the middle of the night was somewhat inappropriate, everyone was a cultivator and wouldn’t feel fatigued.

The only thing uncertain now was just how severe Guo Man’s situation was.

This was what worried him.

“Able to sense nature’s spiritual energy, yet can’t channel it into the body.”

Ye Xuan’s expression also became serious; it seemed she too was hearing about such a situation for the first time.

Although the place she grew up had many cultivators, none had ever encountered such a bizarre problem.

“It’s odd since sensing nature’s spiritual energy should naturally and effortlessly lead it into the body during cultivation technique circulation.”

“Could it be an issue with Little Man herself?”

“Damn it, why didn’t any cultivator in history write a common sense book? These issues were likely trivial back then.”

Lin Xiaotian couldn’t help but lament…
