A true monster

When breakfast was over, I suddenly asked Liu Ao Xue, "Master, what are you doing here? Was it just to have breakfast or did you need me for something?"

Liu Ao Xue was still in a bit of a daze from the breakfast that she ate, so she couldn't help responding a bit slowly.

But when she snapped out of her daze, she gave a cough to calm herself down and put on the appearance that a master should have before saying, "I came here to help guide your cultivation, as well as see how far you've come in the past two days. I am your master after all."

My eyes immediately lit up when I heard this.

As expected, this opportunity had come!

I had been waiting for this master of mine to come and teach me cultivation and now this opportunity was here!

So I didn't hesitate to say, "Master, what are you planning on teaching me?"

Liu Ao Xue gave a nod as she said, "Right now, you don't have any cultivation, so we should first start with a basic cultivation technique."

When the lackeys heard this, they couldn't stop themselves from suddenly laughing.

Liu Ao Xue found this weird, so she said, "What are you laughing at?"

All of them looked like they had been caught doing something naughty and didn't know what to say.

Gao Fu Shuai was the one that said, "Actually, the young master has already broken through on the first day that he arrived at the sect."

As he said this, there was a bitter look that appeared on the faces of all the lackeys.

Liu Ao Xue couldn't help feeling even more confused when she heard this before turning back to look at me. She reached her hand out and said, "Give me your wrist. Let me check your body."

I was surprised, but I gave her my wrist with a nod.

Liu Ao Xue pressed two fingers on my wrist as if she was reading my pulse.

There was a calm look on her face at first, but the expression on her face quickly changed when she felt…

"This…this…this is!" Liu Ao Xue said, as she was unable to finish her sentence because of how shocked she was.

She looked up at me with a very strange look before saying, "How are you at the peak of the Qi Gathering Realm already?"

With an awkward look, I slowly said, "Well, I just felt like I could absorb spiritual energy and then I started absorbing spiritual energy. When it was done, I had my current cultivation."

Liu Ao Xue looked at me like she didn't believe me, but…

Gao Fu Shuai said, "It really did happen just like that. Elder Tian came when it happened and was just as shocked by this."

Liu Ao Xue slowly looked at Gao Fu Shuai and asked, "Elder Tian knew about this?"

Gao Fu Shuai gave a simple nod in response.

Seeing this nod, Liu Ao Xue revealed an angry look as she said, "Elder Tian knew about this and didn't tell me? I'll get even with him when I get back!"

Up in the sky, Elder Tian couldn't help revealing a bitter smile.

After taking a moment to calm down, Liu Ao Xue said, "Alright, since you've already reached the peak of the Qi Gathering Realm, I guess I should teach you a cultivation technique. Without a cultivation technique, you won't be able to progress any further.'

My eyes lit up again when I heard this as I said, "Master, what cultivation technique will you teach me?"

Liu Ao Xue hesitated for a second, but she pulled out a manual eventually and handed it over. As she handed it to me, she said, "This is the foundational cultivation technique of our Falling Star Sect. I want you to learn this."

When I took it and looked at it, I couldn't help saying with an awkward look on my face, "Um, master…I've already learned this."

Liu Ao Xue looked at me with shock when she heard this before slowly saying, "You're saying that you've already learned this? When did you learn this cultivation technique?"

With the same awkward look, I said, "Elder Tian passed me this cultivation technique two days ago and I already learned it."

"What did you say?" Liu Ao Xue immediately replied after hearing this before looking at me with narrowed eyes.

After looking at me for a bit, she said, "Cycle the cultivation technique and let me see what your attainments are."

With a nod, I started cycling the cultivation technique.

But halfway through, Liu Ao Xue suddenly said, "What cultivation technique is this? This clearly isn't our Falling Star Sect's Falling Star Technique!"

I could only awkwardly finish cycling it before saying, "It is the Falling Star Technique."

Liu Ao Xue firmly shook her head before saying, "It might look similar, but it's clearly a different technique!"

I just calmly said, "Well, when I was using it, I felt that there were a few things that were off, so I tweaked it a bit. So you can call it an altered version of the Falling Star Technique."

Though I said this, it was actually the system that had tweaked the Falling Star Technique.

This was the reward that I had received on the first day after spending the daily store budget on altering Xiao Bai.

It was much smoother now compared to when I first started using the Falling Star Technique.

With a shocked look on her face, Liu Ao Xue looked at me and slowly said, "You…altered…the technique?"

I just gave a slight nod in response.

"HOW!?" That was all Liu Ao Xue could say, but it wasn't as if I could give her an answer.

"My system did it." That would just be too crazy of an answer for her to understand.

Not to mention, it wasn't as if I could explain what this system was in the first place.

He had reached the Peak of the Qi Gathering Realm in just two days and he had altered their foundational Falling Star Technique to make something much better than it.

Even Liu Ao Xue who was considered a rare genius in the cultivation world couldn't match these accomplishments.

There was only one thing that she could think when she looked at him.

A monster!

He was a true monster!
