Engagement Canceled: I Can Extract Prefixes-Chapter 315 - 314: A Bit More Courage
The two walked together, continuing until they reached the outskirts of Yang City.
"The Land of the Far South, filled with poisonous creatures, has once been visited by a strong Immortal Realm cultivator.
He too was infected with strange poison, ending with death and path extinction...
Besides, my injury is not much of an issue. With enough rest, it will eventually heal."
Shi Yuezhu spoke as calmly as possible, but Shen Han was not so easy to dismiss.
"If your injury really wasn’t serious, you wouldn’t be hiding it from me like this.
You would have told me directly.
And you know, I’ve learned the medical arts of the Little Pool Immortal.
If it’s truly harmless, you could let me examine it..."
Shen Han looked at Shi Yuezhu, but she could only slightly tilt her head, clearly not daring to agree.
"Your injury was sustained to save me, ending up like this.
No matter what, this is something I should do.
Besides, you should have some faith in me.
Think carefully, within the Immortal Extinction Array, inside the Secret Realm of the Little Pool Immortal.
I, Shen Han, faced these unfamiliar places and handled them quite calmly.
In fact, when it comes to exploring Secret Realms, I should have quite the talent."
Upon hearing this, Shi Yuezhu paused: "But..."
"No more buts, the Land of the Far South must be visited once.
Moreover, I have already stepped into the Fifth Grade, seeking a path of training.
Perhaps in the Land of the Far South, I could find some tempering."
Shi Yuezhu still frowned, conflicted at heart.
"Besides, I also have some matters to discuss with the Moon Bamboo Peak Master, and today is just right."
Saying this, Shen Han invited Shi Yuezhu to walk further away.
Outside the city, they found a dense forest, and used a sword to carve out an open space.
"The matter I want to discuss is about two Cultivation Techniques I wish to teach you.
If the Moon Bamboo Peak Master learns them, they will surely benefit you greatly."
Upon hearing this, Shi Yuezhu was a bit surprised.
"Moon Bamboo Peak Master, you are already in the Immortal Realm, while I am just a Fifth Grade cultivator. Saying that I want to teach you Cultivation Techniques does sound a bit absurd..."
Before Shen Han finished speaking, Shi Yuezhu shook her head.
"I don’t think of it that way, it’s just...
With my current injury, studying other techniques also encounters some obstruction."
Shi Yuezhu spoke with some helplessness, no longer concealing her injury.
Shen Han understood this.
"I’ll teach the Cultivation Techniques first, you can study them slowly later..."
As they spoke, Shen Han picked up the surrounding round logs to build a simple hut.
About half a two-hour period later, they sat inside the small hut.
Shen Han began to teach the Unceasing Skill.
"Joyful thoughts, boundless connection, entangled roots and thorns..."
Before teaching the technique, Shen Han read through the original text of the technique with Shi Yuezhu.
And just with this single reading, she remembered it all.
"This seems to be a Body Refining Skill for resisting poison?"
Just remembering it was impressive enough, but she could even simply grasp its meaning.
In just a moment, she understood that the technique was related to poison resistance.
"You don’t mean to say that just by listening once, you’ve already mastered this technique, do you..."
Shi Yuezhu gave a helpless smile: "I’m not that formidable, I just have some guesses.
To fully comprehend it all, it might take a year or two...
This technique has many strange parts that require thorough research.
Otherwise, following its surface meaning in cultivation would be self-destructive."
Shen Han nodded: "No need to waste time pondering, I’ll explain its meaning to you."
In the simple hut, Shen Han and Shi Yuezhu sat somewhat close.
Shen Han began to explain the simplified version of the Unceasing Skill he had memorized to Shi Yuezhu.
The initial confusions on hearing it were all clarified at this moment.
For Shi Yuezhu to reach the ranks of the Immortal Realm at such a young age.
This in itself demonstrated her talent and her comprehension surpassed many others.
Upon first hearing the Cultivation Technique, the Unceasing Skill, she could sense its profoundness.
She also knew that some parts needed focused comprehension and cultivation, but that would take at least a year.
But with Shen Han’s explanation, everything seemed clear...
"You probably suit being a teacher, such a complex technique can be explained so clearly and thoroughly..."
Shi Yuezhu looked at Shen Han, her eyes showing a hint of admiration.
Upon hearing this, Shen Han’s lips curved into a slight smile.
"Aren’t I now a teacher?"
"Then should I call you Mr. Shen?"
A slightly playful remark made Shi Yuezhu seem a bit more endearing.
"Perhaps not...
A teacher should not have inappropriate thoughts about their student.
I’d rather not tarnish the name of a teacher..."
Shen Han explained.
But the words seemed to hint that he had some inappropriate thoughts about Shi Yuezhu.
This made Shi Yuezhu look at Shen Han with slight feigned reproach.
After a brief playful episode, Shi Yuezhu began to practice the Unceasing Skill as Shen Han instructed.
After being injured within the Inner Mansion, Shi Yuezhu suppressed her own strength as much as possible.
Tentatively feeling the effects of the Unceasing Skill.
Soon, the feedback from practicing the Unceasing Skill quickly emerged.
A prickling pain coursed through her body, and Shi Yuezhu could only use Spiritual Power to resist it...
Persisting for about a quarter of an hour, the prickling pain abruptly vanished.
Immediately, a continuous recovery followed.
In her heart and thoughts, there seemed to be a sense of cooling relief.
"Unceasing Skill, endlessly incessant...
This technique is indeed profound, perhaps even enough to establish a school.
To teach it to me just like this..."
Shi Yuezhu looked up at Shen Han, the value of this technique amazed even an Immortal Realm cultivator like her.
"Should I ask for some benefits?"
Shen Han joked.
Shi Yuezhu seriously nodded, indicating the preciousness of this technique, comparable to the town-sealing techniques of Xiaoyao Peak.
Seeing Shi Yuezhu so serious, Shen Han couldn’t help but feel moved in his heart.
"Benefits, huh..."
Pondering it, Shen Han still hadn’t spoken.
Before Shen Han could say anything, Shi Yuezhu, with a flushed face, suddenly leaned closer.
The two pressed together...
Shen Han was slightly startled; he hadn’t expected Shi Yuezhu, with her character, to be so proactive.
Seeing Shi Yuezhu’s snow-white neck, after a moment’s hesitation, he became a bit bolder.
Then he leaned in, a faint fragrance surrounded his nose.
Just being a little closer, he could smell that fragrance on Shi Yuezhu’s body.
But once they were close, the fragrance was no longer vague like before.
With a gentle inhale, Shi Yuezhu’s body seemed to respond, a bit tense and rigid...
After a while, Shi Yuezhu was gently held by Shen Han, unwilling to let go.
Finally, she hesitated for a moment and gently pushed him away...
Both of them were somewhat reserved in nature, and after separating, they looked at each other, but neither spoke.
"I still have injuries on my body right now, practicing this Unceasing Skill can only be taken slowly..."
Shen Han nodded.
Having practiced the Unceasing Skill himself, he naturally understood the issues involved in its cultivation.
The feeling as if bitten by a venomous snake was excruciating.
With injuries, it’s really not suitable for contemplation and practice.
Otherwise, damaging the foundation would truly be regrettable.
"By the way, the practice and use of this Unceasing Skill does cause a certain discomfort.
Causes extreme drowsiness..."
