Chapter 6: Knowledge Impartation

In an instant, the stressed-out Oris stood in an unfamiliar place. His right foreleg was still clutched by the brutally injured old man.

COUGH! COUGH! COUGH!

With a hole in his stomach, the elderly man lay on the floor in front of Oris, coughing blood like crazy, his health deteriorating by the second.

"Old... old man. Promise me you will be okay. You are a great cultivator. You must have some way to heal yourself, tell me! Let me know how I can help." Oris, who saw the old man in a terrible state, said in a panic.

Blood still leaking from his orifices, the old man smiled and shook his head.

"Cough! Y-Young Master. It would be great to witness your unusual cultivation progress gloriously to the end, but unfortunately, my journey comes to a halt here." With difficulty, the elderly man spoke.

"No, don't talk. Think of a way. You can't die just yet. I don't even know your name, and I don't even know where I am and what to do going forward."

"Haha! Cough! My name is Mozinba. This location is my hideout where I retreat for my closed-door cultivation." The old man pulled a scroll from the spacious magical pouch, "This scroll is a teleportation scroll that will transfer you to Dalmada Empire. Dalmada Empire is ruled by a beast emperor, and no human would dare enslave you in the empire. Not only humans are vicious, but also be wary of other beasts. I employ you to not leave this hideout until you have reached the Soul Germination stage. Cough!"

"Everything you need to survive is in this hideout, and this pouch is a spatial artefact that contains my cultivation tressures, herbs, and other crucial resources you will need on this journey—though I doubt you will need them because you can miraculously breakthrough every moment... Cough!"

A tear fell from Oris's round cattle eyes as he listened. The old guy never treated him badly or attempted to enslave him like the others, even though he had only met him today. In addition to allowing him to inherit his lifetime possessions, the elderly man even addresses him as the young master.

Pulling the second pouch from the first, the elderly man stated, "Cough! Cough! Place my body in this second pouch once you have received my knowledge through my impartation method. Putting my body inside this spatial pouch will prevent it from rotting for all eternity, even though it will start to do so after a couple of centuries if left outside. According to what I have heard, some powerful people can bring the dead back to life. This choice is up to you if you ever get such power in the future. Come nearer now and accept my parting gift. Cough!"

Oris obediently stepped forward. With difficulty, the elderly man raised his hand to touch Oris's glabella with his forefinger. The old man performed the knowledge impartation he performed before when teaching Oris how to open the spiritual channels.

"You will be able to figure out all of your unanswered questions with the knowledge I am giving you. You have no idea about everything; you were merely born of nature. Cough! Everyone in this world views us divine beasts as their potential weapon, and while we are still weak, they will use every trick in the book to capture and enslave us. I am one of many divine beasts that were born from nature without parents. No one wants to mess with us once we have enough power. Hehe! Cough!"

"The woman who ambushed me must have been after the Gold Appraisal Stone or just yourself in the same manner that you drew me in. In addition to just assessing specific details, I think the Gold Appraisal Stone must have additional uses that I am unaware of. Cough! Watch out when you go outside. That woman might be able to trace you down."

COUGH! COUGH! COUGH!

As he applied the method to impart knowledge, the old man's vitality quickly deteriorated. His hand dropped as his breathing ceased at that moment he became silent.

Oris opened his eyes, gazed at the deceased elderly man with teary eyes, and made an effort to focus and follow the old man's instructions.

"I shall seek vengeance for your death when I am strong enough, old man. I swear that I will find the power to bring the dead back to life if it exists." Oris's expression changed to a solemn cattle face with resolute.

"I have already digested 5% of the knowledge received from this elegant old man. Now that I know how to utilize the spiritual energy within me, I shall follow his instructions."

Touching the pouch with his hoof and the old man with another, Oris used his spiritual energy to transfer the old man's corpse into the pouch.

"It is so easy. It is like I was born with this knowledge and ability. Is this the might of knowledge impartation ability?"

"Rest in peace, old man."

Retrieving the Gold Appraisal Stone, Oris inspected it with caution.

"If that woman was not there to capture me, she was after this miraculous artefact that can even divine my name. Is this the might of a Celestial-grade artefact?"

"Sweet! I learned Knowledge Impartation as well. But I didn't learn combat skills yet."

"With a bit of knowledge that I inherited from the old man, I now understand the state of my cultivation base better. It is true that if I continued to breakthrough without my base being stable enough, the future problems in this path would be unimaginably horrifying."

"From the old man's experience, in my prediction, I need about three days before I can attempt to breakthrough to the advanced stage of Spiritual Seed Shaping. It looks like the gap for stabilizing my cultivation will grow wider as I get stronger. I now understand why the old man was shocked. I can breakthrough without cultivating. With this kind of spiritual channel, I do not require cultivation at all, or my body will explode from gathering a huge amount of spiritual energy. It is a good thing that I met the old man first, or else, if I was enslaved by a clueless person, I would die from attempting to cultivate."

"Let's just use these three days to digest all the knowledge imparted by the old man called Mozinba."
