Chapter 95: Chapter 95: Martial Arts Conception
Translator: 549690339
A month later, Lu Yun finally stepped out of the Book Collection Pavilion.
At this time, Lu Yun’s face had gained a touch of maturity, especially his eyes, which had become more clear and wise.
Reading makes people wise and profound. In half a month, Lu Yun had read at least thousands of books of various types, which broadened his knowledge and insights in many aspects.
Besides, Lu Yun found that his Slaughter Conception had also grown slightly.
Not much growth, only by three stages, but this made Lu Yun marvel at its inconceivability.
Although he didn’t know the cause, this change undoubtedly made Lu Yun more eager to immerse himself in the ocean of knowledge.
Only now did he come out of the Book Collection Pavilion.
It wasn’t that he had finished reading all the miscellaneous books on the first floor, but rather a month of not eating or drinking had made him unbearably hungry.
Upon arriving at the elite disciples’ cafeteria, the table was filled with dishes, most of which were energy-packed meats.
The surrounding disciples gathered in twos and threes, discussing some interesting anecdotes about the Martial Academy.
As always, there were never a lack of gossip-mongers. As soon as they heard some insider news, people quickly gathered around, bustling with excitement.
The one at the center was a young man in a purple brocade robe, with an extraordinary temperament and eloquence. Lu Yun had a vague impression of him. He was a disciple from an intermediate aristocratic family in Spirit Martial Prefecture, named Ye Xiuwen.
Ye Xiuwen casually pulled open his robe, sat down on a stool, looked at the crowd, and smiled.
“Did you all hear? A few days ago, a newcomer disciple passed the tenth floor of the Myriad Phenomena Tower.”
As soon as his words were spoken, they immediately caused a stir among the crowd. Many disciples who were eating couldn’t help but put down their chopsticks and prick up their ears.
“My goodness, don’t be so fierce. These newcomers haven’t even been in the Martial Academy for one year. They’re passing the tenth floor of the Myriad Phenomena Tower so quickly. It wouldn’t be long before they can get rid of their elite disciple status and officially become Star Palace disciples.”
The tenth floor of the Myriad Phenomena Tower was the nightmare of many disciples, thwarting numerous veteran elite disciples. Those who had only entered the Martial Academy for just a few years had never even stepped into the ninth floor, let alone the tenth.
Some of the disciples were intrigued and couldn’t wait to ask: “Quickly tell us which newcomer it is. Is it Bai Haoxuan, Xiao Chen, or Lu Yun?”
After speaking, he subtly glanced at another corner.
There, Lu Yun was sitting.
Others also looked over.
Though Lu Yun rarely visited the cafeteria, it didn’t mean others didn’t know him.
Ye Xiuwen coughed and then whispered, “Xiao Chen and Lu Yun have always been low-key, and I’ve rarely seen them, so I don’t have much information on them. But one thing is for certain, even if they haven’t passed the tenth floor of the Myriad Phenomena Tower now, it won’t be long.”
Most of the people present were shrewd and understood the implications of these words, sighing at the news.
However, there were always fools who didn’t understand the underlying connections. One of them, a young man in a blue robe, spoke loudly, “Can’t you guess? It’s definitely Bai Haoxuan. He’s the only Level 6 Innate Talent among the newcomer disciples. Who else could pass the tenth floor of the Myriad Phenomena Tower in such a short time? As for Lu Yun and Xiao Chen, they may be good, but they fall far short of Bai Haoxuan.”
After saying this, he looked proudly at the crowd, as if to say, look how smart 1 am.
The others looked at him strangely, losing their appetite for gossip, and returned to their seats.
Some of the disciples who had been sitting at the same table as the blue-robed youth quickly moved away, finding a new seat, wanting nothing to do with him.
Seeing this, the blue-robed youth was dumbfounded. He looked at the others in confusion, not knowing what he had done to offend them.
Finally, when his gaze landed on a corner of the cafeteria and saw Lu Yun, his pupils shrank dramatically.
“Not good, why is the person involved here?”
By now, even if he was still a little confused, he knew what kind of blunder he had made.
Geniuses often have peculiar personalities, and a casual word or deed could provoke their fury.
As for geniuses, one could only befriend them or stay away from them, but never offend them.
Now that he had gossiped about the main character himself and offended him, he was in trouble.
After hesitating for a while, he finally plucked up the courage and walked up to Lu Yun.
“Senior Brother Lu, just now… 1 misspoke and accidentally offended you…”
Lu Yun looked up at the troubled young man in the blue robe and smiled, “What you said was the truth, and it wasn’t wrong. How could it have offended me?”
Having said that, he stood up and left without giving the other a second glance.
After Lu Yun left the cafeteria, everyone gathered again.
“What do you think Lu Yun meant by that?” The blue-robed youth asked with unease.
Ye Xiuwen looked at the blue-robed youth with a somewhat strange gaze and after pondering for a moment, said. “There are two outcomes. First, you’re lucky, and Lu Yun doesn’t take your unintentional words to heart and doesn’t hold a grudge.”
Upon hearing this, the blue-robed youth breathed a sigh of relief and continued to ask, “What about the other outcome?”
Ye Xiuwen said ominously, “Hehe, in that case, you’ve brought a big disaster upon yourself, and from now on, you’ll be constantly harassed by a genius disciple.”
After leaving the cafeteria, Lu Yun returned to the Book Collection Pavilion, not paying any attention to the small incidents that happened in the cafeteria.
The only thing that surprised him was that Bai Haoxuan had actually passed the tenth level of the Myriad Phenomena Tower.
“That’s good too. In a while, 1 can go find the Dean to honor the promise.”
He was very eager for the Superior True Artifact promised by the Dean, but the most important thing at the moment was to finish reading all the miscellaneous books in the Book Collection Pavilion.
As the saying goes, “Read ten thousand books and travel ten thousand miles,” the path of martial arts is like traveling, one needs to dabble in all aspects of knowledge in order to clear more obstacles for the ascent to the pinnacle of Martial Arts.
Seeing Lu Yun again, the Elder of the Book Collection Pavilion opened his sparse eyes.
At this moment, Lu Yun had a feeling like there was a thorn in his back, forcing him to stop in his tracks.
“Little guy, miscellaneous knowledge is important, but only the realm is fundamental.”
After saying that, the elder’s old eyes closed again.
“Thank you for your guidance, Elder. I’ll remember it.”
Respectfully answering, Lu Yun only then entered the Book Collection Pavilion.
For these old antiques, appropriate respect is necessary.
As for whether to listen or not, that’s a separate matter.
There were still very few people in the Miscellaneous Study Area, with only a few disciples looking for the books they needed.
Lu Yun didn’t care about other people’s plans. He came to a bookshelf and skillfully removed a book from among the many volumes, and began to read it.
In the blink of an eye, half a month had passed.
At this time, Lu Yun finally found a book about Martial Arts Conception.
Naturally, Lu Yun was very excited about it. He immediately found a quiet corner and began to read quietly.
Time passed, and two hours quickly went by.
Lu Yun got up to put the book back in its original place, his brows furrowed, and his heart full of doubt.
There were very few descriptions about Martial Arts Conception, but there were still some good gains.
Martial Arts Conception is a realm, a unity of form, spirit, emotion, and reason, a coordination of illusion and reality, that emerges from accidents and hides within symbols.
Similarly, Martial Arts Conception is also a manifestation of Spiritual Power, invisible to the naked eye, but capable of exerting tremendous effects, shocking the soul, suppressing opponents, and enhancing one’s own strength.
There are many kinds of Martial Arts Conceptions, such as Sword Intent, Saber Intent, Ice and Snow Intent, Slaughter Conception, and so on.
The Slaughter Conception that Lu Yun understood was an extension of its origin, an origin that belonged only to slaughter, evolved from the condensation of killing intent and murderous aura to the extreme. As long as he triggered the Slaughter Conception, his opponent’s spirit would be shaken and suppressed, unable to exert their full strength. With the buff of Slaughter Conception, his own strength would also be enhanced.
Conception is divided into ten ranks from low to high.
The First Rank is the Entry Level, while the tenth rank is Perfection.
It is said that after the Conception reaches Perfection, it can manifest itself.
“At the moment, my Slaughter Conception is only at the First Rank with 10% proficiency, just entering the door. 1 don’t know when I’ll be able to manifest the Conception.”
Clearing his mind of all distractions, Lu Yun continued to flip through the next book.
In another ten days, he finally finished reading the remaining miscellaneous books.
When he left, he had gained two more Superior Martial Arts techniques in his possession..
