Chapter 99: Spiritual Attack

Early in the morning, Alex woke up from his cultivation. He was tired from yesterday\'s auction, so he had decided to just cultivate for the night.

He opened his status to check his current Qi. He had about 1.6 million Qi right now. If he wanted to, he could easily break through to the Bone Tempering 9th Realm. But, that would be bad for his foundation as his cultivation base would be hugely destabilized.

The further one went, the worse it would be. He logged out to get some breakfast and came back. Just as he logged back in, his master arrived as well.

\'Huh? Are we going somewhere today too?\' he wondered.

"Come, it\'s time for our lesson." She said as she walked into a room that was not the alchemy room. Alex was more surprised now.

"Master, weren\'t we done with lessons? At least, until I was able to turn 50% of my current Qi into True Qi?" he asked.

"I am not here to teach you alchemy today. I\'m here to teach you about the basic knowledge every cultivator should have, that you certainly don\'t."

"Let\'s start with language…" Ma Rong went on to teach him how to read the language for about 2 hours. She was confident he could learn it in two hours with his superior memory and mental strength.

In two hours, Alex was good, if not better than most of the cultivators out there in reading the language.

"Alright, take out that old book. Let\'s see if you can translate that book." She said.

Alex nodded and brought out Heaven\'s impact book. Ma Rong looked at the book and asked, "See if you can read it now that you know it\'s a language."

He tried to read it, but he couldn\'t understand a single word in the book. To him, they were just another piece of paper with scribbles on it.

"I can\'t master. I can\'t read it." He said.

"Hmm… didn\'t you say you read the introduction page?" she asked.

"Oh, that. I didn\'t exactly read it. It\'s more like after I look over it, the information just comes to my mind." He said.

Ma Rong frowned a bit. The book had an unknown origin, meaning if anyone could read these books, they might be able to use abilities not yet seen in the Crimson Empire. "Alright then, did you learn it?"

"Well, I did learn it, but…" he trailed off.

"But what? Is this not a technique? Is this something else?" she asked.

"Oh, no. This is a technique. It\'s only that I couldn\'t use it at all since I didn\'t have a target to practice on. So, I still don\'t know exactly what it does, only that it uses spiritual sense to attack another person\'s mind."

"Hmm…" Ma Rong contemplated for a moment and said, "Alright, attack me."

"Umm… are you sure master?" he asked.

"Yes, if it does in fact attack the mind, I\'m confident that my mind is stronger than yours." She said.

Alex felt the reasoning made sense. "Ok, then, here I come master." He immediately started using the technique. He expected his Qi to start flowing as he started the technique, but to his surprise, they stayed where they were.

Instead, his spiritual sea started churning like crazy. Suddenly, a vortex appeared in the middle of his spiritual sea and quickly drained as a quarter of his spiritual sea dried up within a second.

All of the disappeared sea turned into a massive cloud of spiritual sense that started forming what he felt was a solid shape. They came together to form a fist, ready to launch outward.

He looked towards his master and regarded her as the target. Suddenly, the newly formed fist made up of spiritual sense flew out of his Spiritual sea and slammed right into Ma Rong\'s head.

Ma Rong had been waiting for the attack to arrive, so she had been monitoring with her spiritual sense. Suddenly, she felt something move near her disciple. And out of nowhere, it struck her head.

Ma Rong felt her consciousness die for a moment as everything around her dimmed to the point she couldn\'t see anything. Her body went limp without the control of her mind and started falling to the ground.

Within mere split seconds, she caught herself from falling and stabilized herself. Her breathing had gotten disorderly and there were traces of fear in her eyes.

"Are you okay, master?" Alex asked as he was worried that she might have been hurt.

"I- I\'m fine. I\'m fine." She was shocked at just how strong the attack was. Even without considering the difference in their cultivation, she had more than twice his mental strength, yet she had lost consciousness for a second there.

That went to show just how terrifying this ability was. "How is your spiritual sense? Any changes?" she asked.

"Changes? No, but I did lose a quarter of my spiritual sea on that attack." He said.

"I see. Well, it only makes sense for you to do so much damage if you had to use such a high amount of spiritual sense. Don\'t worry, after mind tempering realm, you will have a much stronger mental strength and can easily use that technique multiple times." She reassured him.

"Mind tempering realm? I understand master." Alex was looking forward to growing stronger as a cultivator now.

"Alright then, try and see if you can somehow understand the language there. It will help me as well if I can understand that language. As for alchemy, how many pills do you have yet to register?" she asked.

"7, master." He said.

"Alright. Do what you want for now. I will return back around noon to continue our lesson." She said and walked away.

Alex was just happy that his master was investing so much time in him. He was looking forward to seeing what his master would teach him now that she was done teaching about the languages.

"I guess I will have to wait and see. For now, let\'s go get some lunch." He logged off.
