Chapter 182: Talk Among the Elders
"Hey, dear big brother, why won't you teach me that trick~~?" the little lady bothered as she remains in a lotus position, multitasking as she also cultivates as well.
While the immortal-like young man multitasks as well, he couldn't help but feel helpless as the bubbly little lady, his half-sister, continues to bother him, her pleads eventually reaching him as he looks at her with surrender in his eyes.
"Your soul power is quite strong for someone of your cultivation level, try practicing to mold it into basic shapes first" he said to her as a surge of soul power comes out of him and forms into a perfectly spherical ball of white light, before it turns into all sorts of shapes, a pyramid, a cube, a cylinder among all others, deciding not to show the lady his ability to morph his soul power into more complex and detailed forms such as weapons, as he knows that she will definitely bother him more if he do so.
Seeing the thing floating on her older brother's hand, Wu Xiaoyao immediately nods with eager eyes, closing her eyes again as she imagines the shape and form that her soul power should take, willing her soul power to fill up the imaginary container in her mind, her progress slow but significant in Wu Xiaotian's eyes, yet something already enough to send shivers down the audience's spines.
"As expected of the genius that set up a foundation made of ninety starlight motes, her comprehension even in terms of the most obscure and mysterious soul power is unmatched"
"But for that Su Tian to teach her about this, just what sort of monster is he?"
"It's most likely just because he's older than her, the little lass from the Extreme Martial Sect is so young, probably just a few years as a teen, but look at Su Tian, he's definitely no younger than twenty based on his appearance alone"
"So what? I heard that he's an itinerant cultivator, he's self-taught, can you imagine how strong he will be if he also belongs to the higher hierarchy of a top tier force at birth?"
While the audience argues as they watch Wu Xiaotian teach Wu Xiaoyao, a brown-haired beauty from the crowd remains passive and merely watch the two get along with each other, the genuine smile on her daughter's lovely face making her approve the young man even more, thinking that such talent and character is only deserving of that woman's son.
"Try not to coerce the soul power into taking the form you want, my dear little sister, the power is yours, it will cater to your wants and needs even without your intervention" Wu Xiaotian advices as he saw his younger sister struggling to completely form the sphere floating on top of her hands, his words interrupting her focus and causing everything to collapse, yet instead of looking at him with petty grievance, she looks at him with gratitude towards his words.
Applying the advice her older brother has given to her, she starts forming the sphere faster than she currently does, from the original couple of minutes on her first try, forming the sphere, even completely this time, within half a minute, still paling in comparison to the near instantaneous formation of the sphere on Wu Xiaotian's hands but already more than enough to shock not only the crowd, but also the four elders of the Heavenly Secret Tower watching in the void.
"Monster… this brother and sister duo are both monsters…" the eldest, Hua Xuantian said with his voice trembling, his eyes fixated on the siblings seemingly enjoying their time together, the expression on the immortal-like young man's face that of a happy man despite his attempt to hide it through the cover of annoyance in his face.
"Second brother, what do you think?" looking at the one sitting next to the oldest, the youngest, Hua Lingtian asked, the one beside him, the third son, Hua Yingtian nodding in agreement as he also wonders what the opinion of the strongest among them is.
Contemplating for a while, the second born, Hua Xingtian, opens his mouth, the clear interest in his voice apparent as he starts talking, his eyes not leaving the siblings currently moving on to more complicated shapes.
"They're way beyond the geniuses of this generation, I think the only one who can match that little lady is that Junior Su from my son's generation, as for her monster of a son… I've never seen anyone like him, even outside…" Hua Xingtian declared with certainty in his eyes, decades of his life spent on travelling outside, meeting all sorts of genius that will be called absurd once placed in their planet, but none among the ones he met, or even among the ones he heard in rumors can compare with the immortal-like young man they are observing, as if he's cultivating in an entirely different way than the rest of existence.
"So second brother also know the identity of the boy already" Hua Yingtian said as he heard Hua Xingtian's words, the second oldest acknowledging the question by nodding in agreement before he follows up with an explanation.
"I peered into his history when I first saw him, his existence is completely convoluted, like a sort of unpredictable machine, and I only saw some bits of information here and there, all of them being his karmic ties, and I don't even manage to see all of the people he's related to" Hua Xingtian said as he recalls something as he peers into Wu Xiaotian's past, something that terrifies him quite a bit.
"We heard that he has some… relation with them" Hua Lingtian said, his old face showing shame despite all his experiences in life, the reports he read about the rumors concerning the immortal-like young man sent by their spies in the Extreme Martial Sect something really not rare, but quite unexpected for the character of the young man based on their perception of him.
"He's quite the lady killer huh… whatever, he got guts and integrity, besides, he's really a great character as well, and his romantic involvement is none of our concern, we just need to let him be and support him until he can spread his wings" Hua Xuantian said with a smile in his face and anticipation in his eyes, wondering just how far can this seedling grow, and how big of a wave he will cause in the planet they live in.
One among them looks at the young man with even greater anticipation compared to the oldest of them, the second born, Hua Xingtian, who hopes to see the immortal-like young man to step into that higher stage with him and spread the reputation of their planet into the stars, hoping to usher a new era of development and prosperity to his home world.
As the eyes of everyone in the void continues to watch and enjoy how the brother and sister interact, the two are already advancing their lessons to more complex ones.
"You're getting the hang of it now, my dear little sister, try expanding them, but remember, you don't need to fill everything in the area with soul power, think of it like you're erecting a wall to cover yourself" Wu Xiaotian instructed prompting Wu Xiaoyao to nod, the bubbly young lady closing her eyes in focus as she starts expanding the cube shaped soul power in her hand.
