Sage Monarch Melon Eater looked up at the sky as he indistinctly said, “Honestly speaking, I’ve no idea how to have Fellow Daoist Tyrannical Song help me.”
Melon Eater really had no clue what that divination meant. He only knew that it had to be related to Song Shuhang or his light of virtue, and that it might be related to what could allow him to break through his realm and charge into the Ninth Stage Tribulation Transcender Realm. However, as to how he was going to achieve that, he had not a single clue.
Song Shuhang rubbed his temples, and said, “Well, Fellow Daoist Melon Eater, since you were to one who came looking me, do you at least have any ideas?”
Don’t tell me that you simply came to me impulsively?
Sage Monarch Melon Eater earnestly said, “Frankly speaking, I actually don’t have any ideas. I simply came looking for you impulsively.”
Song Shuhang: “…”
What am I supposed to do, then? I’m also quite helpless here.
“So… I do have one idea,” Sage Monarch Melon Eater said. “If Fellow Daoist Tyrannical Song isn’t averse to it, I would like to stay and live with you for a while. I promise not to interfere with any part of Fellow Daoist’s life. I will silently stay by your side. You can even just take it as if I’m not even there. Anyway, weren’t you going to catch a big fish?”
Song Shuhang: “…”
You’re literally the size of an island, how am I supposed to take it as if you weren’t there?
Moreover, a powerful Profound Sage staying by my side would definitely bring me much attention.
Furthermore, Song Shuhang had a lot of things about him that he didn’t want outsiders to know about. If a Profound Sage were to stay by his side, his privacy would surely be placed in quite the predicament.
Sage Monarch Melon Eater pitifully asked, “Is it not alright?”
Song Shuhang replied, “I’ll just say this first… Fellow Daoist Melon Eater, this is the second time that you and I have met. The relationship between us isn’t at the point where we can simply live together.”
Sage Monarch Melon Eater smiled bitterly. In fact, he also knew this. However, that divination could be related to whether or not he could step into the Ninth Stage Tribulation Transcender Realm. As such… even if he had to slightly thicken up his face, he still chose to go to Song Shuhang.
Additionally, he had already planned that if worse came to worst, he would simply have to be shameless even when Song Shuhang refused his request. At that time, if he were to be cursed at, he’d not retort, and if he were to be hit, he’d not fight back—all this so that Song Shuhang wouldn’t be able to drive him out.
Compared to an opportunity to reach the Ninth Stage, shame could go eat shiet!
Seeing Sage Monarch Melon Eater’s firm eyes, Song Shuhang could feel his head start to hurt—he could somewhat guess Sage Monarch Melon Eater’s plan. This guy seemed to have already prepared to depend on him.
If he wanted Melon Eater to refrain from depending on him, then the best he could do to achieve that would be to deal with the other party’s trouble. At the very least, he had to discover what that divination meant.
After thinking for a moment, Song Shuhang asked, “Fellow Daoist Melon Eater, how proficient are you when it comes to healing techniques?”
“Haha, I’m quite proficient at it. Also, I have a medicinal pill with a very strong healing effect. It’s called the [Draconic Whale Pill]. Its healing effect can only be said to be excellent.” Sage Monarch Melon Eater hurried to market himself.
He believed that Song Shuhang was going to talk to him about the conditions.
That Draconic Whale Pill was not some small item; it was made by Sage Monarch Melon Eater with his divine blood. His body contained the blood of a divine beast, and as it was inevitable that he could get injured in battles with others, he did not waste the blood that came out after he got injured. He brought back the blood for pill refining, and the effect of the refined pill was pretty good.
Song Shuhang said, “That being the case, I have a secret technique that we might be able to use to attempt figuring out that divination of yours.”
Sage Monarch Melon Eater questioningly said, “Using a secret technique to figure out the divination?”
Fellow Daoist Tyrannical Song couldn’t be trying to deceive me, right? Where in the world could one find such a secret technique?
“Anyway, let me just give it a try. Fellow Daoist Melon Eater, just ready your healing technique and Draconic Whale Pill in case something happens,” Song Shuhang said.
Sage Monarch Melon Eater nodded.
“Are you going to use that secret technique again?” Su Clan’s Sixteen asked. She knew that when Song Shuhang used his secret appraisal method, he would end up spurting a huge amount of blood.
Song Shuhang replied, “I’ll just give it a try. I’ve gotten better at controlling the secret technique anyway. If the price gets too high, I will cancel the technique immediately.”
As he had attained a better understanding of the ‘secret appraisal technique’, he now no longer had to worry about the possibility of his hand touching the Earth, and him ending up dying from spraying out too much blood.
Song Shuhang’s consciousness moved as he put away the glove on his right hand. After that, he pressed his hand against Sage Monarch Melon Eater’s body.
…He still wasn’t aware that Sage Monarch Melon Eater’s divinatory bamboo stick was there. He thought that since it had been eaten by the virtuous lamia, there was no way for him to appraise the ‘divinatory stick’, so he could only directly appraise Sage Monarch Melon Eater’s main body.
And so, the secret appraisal technique was activated.
On Song Shuhang’s arm, several wounds appeared out of nowhere. Additionally, the amount of bleeding was huge, with blood visibly being ejected.
At the same time, a golden rune flew out of his eye and landed on Sage Monarch Melon Eater’s body.
When that golden rune landed on Sage Monarch Melon Eater’s body, it turned into a clock whose hand was spinning counterclockwise…
After a few moments, the golden rune returned to Song Shuhang’s eye. On Song Shuhang’s body, more wounds began to appear, some deep, some shallow. His entire body had instantly become bathed in a layer of blood.
Sage Monarch Melon Eater’s eyes grew wide. He had never seen such a secret technique before. In addition, seeing the amount of blood that Song Shuhang was bleeding out made him feel especially embarrassed—all that blood was flowing out because of him.
As Song Shuhang retracted his palm, he called out, “Huff, huff, phew, healing technique.”
Sage Monarch Melon Eater had long been ready. Seven to eight healing techniques instantly descended on Song Shuhang, rapidly healing his wounds. At the same time, he brought out a crimson-colored medicinal pill, and shoved it into Song Shuhang’s hands.
Song Shuhang took the elixir, but did not swallow it immediately—the wounds on his body might look serious, but in fact, they were all mere flesh wounds. After the 7-8 healing techniques started working on him, his body had already been healed.
However, the pain still remained.
At the same time, information related to ‘Sage Monarch Melon Eater’ began to flood into his mind.
[‘Melon Eater’, the whale. Sage Name: Sage Monarch Melon Eater. Daoist Name: Daoist Dual System. Realm: Peak of the Eighth Stage. He is a mutated whale with the bloodline of a divine beast who practices the technique ❮Dual System Virtue Technique❯ (incomplete version) that was left behind by *****. He is currently stuck in the Eighth Stage Realm and have been unable to break through for a long time.]
Judging from the results of the appraisal, the Sage Name ‘Sage Monarch Melon Eater’ was actually not his daoist name. That was quite interesting.
❮Dual System Virtue Technique❯… This was the first time Song Shuhang had heard of such a technique.
However, the creator of this technique was definitely very powerful. So far, whenever Song Shuhang used the secret appraisal method and encountered information that he couldn’t appraise, it generally involved an Immortal, and most of them were Immortals who were still alive.
However, this cultivation technique seemed to be incomplete…
Could this be the reason ‘Sage Monarch Melon Eater’ had been stuck in the Eighth Stage Realm, and couldn’t break through? However, every cultivator who was able to become a Profound Sage was a talented person. Since the ❮Dual System Virtue Technique❯ was incomplete, then with his strength, couldn’t he have completed it by himself? Even if it was self-completed, and not as good as the original, wouldn’t doing so be better than being stuck in the Eighth Stage Realm?
Taking a step back, Sage Monarch Melon Eater could even switch to another cultivation technique that could directly lead him to the Tribulation Transcender Realm.
Song Shuhang curiously glanced at Sage Monarch Melon Eater. Did he never consider completing the cultivation technique?
Sage Monarch Melon Eater asked, “Fellow Daoist Tyrannical Song, was there a result?”
Song Shuhang directly asked, “Fellow Daoist Melon Eater, have you never considered completing your cultivation technique yourself, or even simply switching to another cultivation technique?”
Sage Monarch Melon Eater was stunned. Profound Sage Tyrannical Song’s ‘secret technique’ was actually so powerful that he could even figure out that his cultivation technique was incomplete? In other words, just now, could he have been completely stripped naked of his secrets?
…This secret technique is too perverted. In the future, I definitely can’t let Profound Sage Tyrannical Song’s hands touch my pure and chaste body, Sage Monarch Melon Eater thought to himself.
Afterward, he replied, “Fellow Daoist Tyrannical Song, it’s not that I don’t want to switch to another cultivation technique, but that I can’t switch to a different one all.”
He sighed, and then continued, “My cultivation technique is extremely powerful, its creator created it with the purpose of having it look down on everything else in the universe. This cultivation technique is truly powerful and domineering. However, when I reached the Profound Stage Realm, my body changed, and became suitable to only this single cultivation technique, so I can no longer switch to another one. As for completing it, I’ve no idea how to do so at all. The creator of this cultivation technique simply stood at too high of a point, so I’d simply be akin to a dog chasing its tail if I were to try to complete it.”
Sometimes, the creator of a cultivation technique could be said to be too powerful; such a situation could also be very painful.
Song Shuhang rubbed his temples. It seemed like he still needed more information to solve Sage Monarch Melon Eater’s problem. Most importantly… he needed more information related to that ‘divinatory stick’.
As such, Song Shuhang continued to silently urge the ‘secret appraisal technique’ as he pictured the divinatory bamboo stick together with the result of the divination, [Right Now].
Soon, some more information emerged in Song Shuhang’s mind.
[‘Right now— is the time! Ask your question straightforwardly! For more information about the ❮Dual System Virtue Technique❯ stopping at the Eighth Stage, please consult the ancient Heavenly City’s beauty, Fairy @#%×.]
Song Shuhang: “…” [Right now is the time, so ask your question]? This was the divination?
In addition, he also remembered another thing, Fairy @#%× also practiced a virtue technique. Great Northern Emperor once said, ‘Little friend, why is @#%×’s light of virtue form attached to your body?’
At that time, the Great Northern Emperor had mistook the materialized virtuous lamia behind Song Shuhang to be the light of virtue form of #%×.
But here came the problem…
The virtuous lamia was currently still a ‘materialization of light of virtue’.
Song Shuhang actually had some doubts in his heart and had wondered if his light of virtue was Fairy #%×’s resurrection method or something.
Nonetheless, up until now, the virtuous lamia has yet to gain the ability to properly communicate with people.
Although she could play dead, swallow swords, and recite TV drama scenes when she played dead, she had never really properly communicated with Song Shuhang.
Should I ask her and just see what comes out of it?
I’ll just give it a try, after all, it isn’t like I’ll lose anything from doing so.
Song Shuhang thought for a while, then used his will to summon the virtuous lamia.
