Chapter 1253: Dark Saint, Enlightenment!
Translator: Lordbluefire
Hu Xingjiang was a little dissatisfied that Yang Shizhan did not chase after
Huangfu Long. However, he could not order a saint to do things.
“Thank you for your help, Saint!”
After Hu Xingjiang bowed to express his gratitude, he pleaded with Sun Mo to
treat the injured.
Sun Mo did not decline. He guessed that Yang Shizhan was unwilling to kil
Huangfu Long because he sympathized with him. After all, this Mad Secondary
Saint was also an experimental subject.
Where’s Huangfu Long?
Huang Tian asked anxiously when he saw Hu Xingjiang returning
“He escaped.”
Hu Xingjiang checked his friend’s injuries. “Don’t worry about him. Take care of
your injuries first!”
Huang Tian let out a deep sigh. He knew that there was no helping it, so all of
his mental energy immediately dissipated. He slumped onto the bed like a
salted fish and said, Teacher Sun, go treat those who are seriously injured
first!
Because of this, Sun Mo’s impression of Huang Tian changed quite a lot. At
least, he was not a selfish and cold-blooded person. “You’re also seriously
injured
“B. Boss, bad news. Puma injured Springwater and Grasshopper, and he has
snatched away a lot of data.”
An assistant rushed over anxiously.
Sun Mo frowned. He knew the assistant with the code name Puma. He was a
very amicable man, and Sun Mo didn’t expect him to be so ruthless.
To everyone’s surprise, Huang Tian did not get angry. Instead, he waved his
hand, indicating that there wasn’t a need to chase after him.
It was very normal for people to flee on separate paths when facing a great
crisis
What followed was a busy week. It was time to clean up the laboratory, collect
the corpses, and organize the remaining data.
Everyone was in low spirits.
That night, Huang Tian checked the laboratory while moving around with a
walking stick.
Sun Mo was repairing the damaged equipment. When he saw Huang Tian, he
quickly persuaded him. “Teacher Huang, you can’t walk yet.”
“There’s no need to repair them. This laboratory is going to be abandoned.”
Even though Huang Tian was a saint, he was sighing endlessly with tears in his
eyes. This was the place he had worked at for 50 years.
Due to the explosions, a lot of the rooms on this floor had been destroyed.
Most of the equipment had also been lost. Moreover, there was a great
reduction in manpower. One-third of them had been injured or killed, while
most of the remaining people wanted to leave. Therefore, if Huang Tian
wanted to rebuild the laboratory to its previous standard, it would take him at
least six to seven years.
Huang Tian was feeling a little dejected.
“It’s good to abandon it too!
Sun Mo did not persuade Huang Tian to continue.
Although this place produced many technologies that were ahead of its time,
many experiments had been conducted on forbidden arts. From an ethical
point of view, it was better to close it down.
There’s something I must clarify!
Huang Tian’s tone was calm. “Great teachers who are 7-stars or higher have
contributed a lot to the Nine Provinces. Therefore, we won’t treat them like
monkeys, and we will ask them if they are willing to be experimental subjects.
However, that Mad Secondary Saint is an exception!
Huang Tian paused for a moment and said, “He’s a darkness seed.”
“No wonder he would go berserk and kill people after regaining his senses
Sun Mo was struck by a realization
In the Nine Provinces, darkness seed was a forbidden word that was banned
from being mentioned in public. Moreover, everyone had the right to punish a
darkness seed if they were to see them.
Sun Mo had heard of this term from Mei Ziyu.
A long time ago, when great teachers had committed a crime, they would not
be killed or imprisoned. Instead, they would be exiled to the Darkness
Continent.
In the Saint Gate’s opinion, this was a productive use of cast-offs because if
those great teachers wanted to survive, they had to explore the Darkness
Continent
Gradually, other than great teachers, many countries also started to banish
various prisoners to the Darkness Continent
Many people died, but some lucky ones survived. As they had lived in the
Darkness Continent under harsh conditions for generations, their descendants
were very hostile toward the people from the Nine Provinces.
“Great teachers can also be born from the darkness seeds, but secondary saints
would be very rare. Therefore, after we captured Huangfu Long, we treated him
like a precious resource.
Huang Tian introduced, “His body is very strong and we were able to collect a
lot of data that we couldn’t obtain from ordinary experimental subjects. It
lasted until we started using him in soul transfer experiments. Because we
used him as a vessel, we injected too many souls into his body, and he went
crazy.
This time, we didn’t know what went wrong. He accidentally regained his
senses and then he started taking revenge.”
Huang Tian did not hate Huangfu Long. When he did these experiments, he
was prepared to be killed one day.
What’s up with that Puma who stole the data?
Sun Mo asked.
“Many of my assistants are here to improve their knowledge and accumulate
experience. Therefore, isn’t it normal for them to steal the data?
Huang Tian chuckled and didn’t take it to heart.
After all, he had memorized all the data.
T actually hope that Puma can use the data to achieve some results!”
Huang Tian was hopeful.
What are your plans for the future?
Sun Mo sized up Huang Tian. This person should be from the Dark Dawn.
However, after interacting with him for a while, Sun Mo realized that he wasn’t
bad. If Sun Mo could convince him to go to their school to be a teacher, even if
it was only for half a year, it would be a huge gain
“Haha, stop dreaming. If I were to go to your school, you’d be in big trouble!
Huang Tian teased. “Tm planning to travel to those remote villages in the Nine
Provinces. I hope to unearth more children with potential from poor families.”
Sun Mo shrugged, feeling a little regretful.
“Here, take this jade plate. In the future, if you encounter any of the five
oyens or the seven Starlords and they find trouble for you, give this jade plate
to them. The bit of reputation I have might be able to help you tide through
one crunch.
Huang Tian took out a palm-sized jade plate and handed it to Sun Mo.
The jade plate was dark green and had the words Heavenly Fate on it.
Seeing this, Sun Mo finally knew where Huang Tian had come from. If he was
right, Huang Tian was Heavenly Fate Saint, one of the three Dark Saints under
the Dawn Sovereign.
Teacher, if I may ask, what is with that Zero Saint?
Sun Mo had met Saint Ten-Thousand Leaves in the Greenhaze Forest and had
even been poisoned by him. There was some enmity between them.
“T don’t know
Huang Tian pursed his lips. “Zero Saint is known as the most mysterious dark
saint. Even people from our organization have never seen him before, let alone
you outsiders.”
Sun Mo actually wanted to ask about the Dawn Sovereign’s identity, but Huang
Tian would definitely not tell him. Therefore, he saved himself the trouble.
“Sun Mo, I admire you very much. As a parting gift, do you want to accept my
Enlightenment Provision?
Huang Tian asked.
Thank you, Teacher Huang
Sun Mo expressed his thanks.
After great teachers used Enlightenment Provision, they would be able to
forcibly stuff knowledge into their students’ heads. As a result, the students
would then be able to understand and use the knowledge directly.
At the same time, this halo would also bring great inspiration to the students.
In short, Enlightenment Provision could instill knowledge into students, akin
to stuffing ducks. It would also inspire them
However, great teachers would not use this halo easily because it would
severely consume the great teacher’s mental energy. Usually, after the halo was
released, it would weaken the great teacher for at least ten days to half a
month. Moreover, great teachers did not like to take such shortcuts. They
preferred for their students to learn and grasp the knowledge they had
imparted by themselves.
Sun Mo’s Soul Imprint had a similar effect to Enlightenment Provision, but the
former didn’t have the ‘weakening’ side effect.
At the same time, even if the students were too stupid to understand it, they
would not turn into idiots.
However, it was different from Enlightenment Provision. If the student who
received this knowledge was too stupid, or if the great teacher transmitted too
much knowledge, the student’s brain cells would be fried by this information
stream. In less severe situations, the student would have a headache for several
days. In more severe situations, the student would become dull-witted and
might die suddenly.
Then get ready!
Huang Tian was very consoled that Sun Mo trusted him.
Typically speaking, when an unfamiliar great teacher wanted to perform
Enlightenment Provision on a student, the student would not agree to it. This
was because they wouldn’t know if the great teacher was planning to take the
opportunity to ruin their future.
Besides, even if the great teacher didn’t have such intentions, being unfamiliar
with the students, they wouldn’t know how much knowledge they should
impart to the students either.
After taking a deep breath, Huang Tian focused and calmed himself down,
placing his hand on Sun Mo’s head. Then, white light lit up on his palm. Like
spring water, the light surged into Sun Mo’s brain
“He’s indeed a genius!”
Huang Tian looked at Sun Mo, who was as stable as a mountain. He knew that
Sun Mo’s endurance level was far beyond his expectations, so he increased the
amount of transmission.
After five whole minutes, Huang Tian stopped. He saw that Sun Mo was
digesting and absorbing the knowledge, so he left quietly.
Sigh, it was rare to meet such an outstanding student. He really wanted to
impart all his knowledge to Sun Mo!
However, Huang Tian knew that this was impossible. Sun Mo was already at
the ancestor level in both the study of spirit runes and weaponsmithing On top
of that, he was a high star-level great teacher as well. He should make a path
for himself.
Sun Mo’s achievements would not be inferior to his.
Sun Mo sat cross-legged and went into deep thought for seven days before he
was done digesting the knowledge left behind by Huang Tian.
It included the data from the important experiments that Huang Tian had done
over the past 100 years, especially in soul transference. It was equivalent to
giving Sun Mo an elevator, allowing him to take a shortcut to stand at the top
of this domain.
“You’re awake? Hu Xingjiang sized up Sun Mo. “How do you feel?
Tts very fulfilling!
Sun Mo smiled and bowed in thanks.
Over the past few days, Hu Xingjiang had been keeping watch for him.
“Old Huang has left!”
Hu Xingjiang looked at the dilapidated walls here. The era that belonged to him
had ended. “What about you? What are your plans?
“Tll go see if Yu Lin and the other prisoners have any thoughts of repenting. If
not, I won’t be bothered to continue participating in the examination. I’l head
back home
Thinking back, four years had passed since Sun Mo came to the prison. It was
equivalent to him having attended university.
However, in Sun Mo’s university days, he wasn’t very hardworking. Other than
not dating, he had spent a lot of time gaming and reading novels. However, in
the past four years spent in this prison, Sun Mo had been working hard
constantly and had also gained a lot.
He had obtained Saint Bai Dong’s legacy, learned the Empowerment Divine Art,
and also made great improvements in weaponsmithing. He could now take the
ancestor-level examination for weaponsmithing, and it had also inspired him
to come up with a new invention. Once it was completed, he would be able to
change the combat mode in the Nine Provinces.
Helping Yang Shizhan become a saint could be considered to have clung to
someone influential. At least, this favor could give Sun Mo the capital to go up
against Secondary Saint Zhou.
Then there was the data.
Although Sun Mo wouldn’t conduct soul transfer experiments, many of the
data here had inspired him, giving him a new idea.
