Merging with Demon Spirits

Chapter 764 - 573: They’re All Freaks

The seventh mentor to appear was an old man with an Eastern face.Compared to the previous mentors, he appeared especially old, with a head full of white hair and some gray-brown spots on his cheeks. His complexion was dull, giving off a sense of decline and lethargy.

He wore a plain black robe, with his hands hidden inside the sleeves.

Thirty-seven mentors, fifteen Emperors, and twenty-two Kings.

Perhaps to avoid the great disparity in strength and secret skills between the Emperors and Kings, the fifteen Emperors appeared first, followed by the Kings.

Being the seventh to appear meant that the old man possessed the strength of an Emperor.

However, compared to the previous renowned and well-known mentors, the students were puzzled by this old man, appearing very unfamiliar.

Moreover, the old man seemed too frail, giving the impression of having little time left.

"I’ve never seen this old man before, does anyone know him?" Yu Qiao asked curiously.

"No, I don’t know him."

Ye Xing shook his head, and the others did as well. Although they could guess which country he came from based on his attire, they indeed didn’t recognize him.

It’s actually quite normal not to recognize him.

There are many strong individuals worldwide; some are secluded deep in the mountains and forests, some are low-key and unwilling to be in the spotlight.

"Having no reputation, along with being old and weak, this actually proves he has a unique secret skill, perhaps there will be a surprise," Lin Feng said.

"Makes sense."

Everyone nodded, anticipation welling up inside them.

The old man’s steps were slow. After leaving the lineup of mentors, his slightly cloudy gaze looked down, and he slowly said, "I am Miyamoto Tenshu, in the Martial Emperor realm. My secret skill is called: Blade Spirit. Essence of Condensing Soldiers."

After speaking, without any visible movements from Miyamoto Tenshu, a thirty-meter-long, semi-illusory large blade appeared out of thin air above him and then slashed down.

A deafening explosion reverberated.

Accompanied by the thunderous roar, the ground trembled, and everyone’s eyes turned to a kilometer away.

A chasm stretching four to five hundred meters long, unfathomably deep, suddenly appeared and continued to expand rapidly, with a large amount of yellow sand pouring into the abyss.

"So powerful."

The students were filled with shock.

It’s no surprise that a Martial Emperor possessed such destructive power, nothing to be astonished at.

What amazed them was that Miyamoto Tenshu’s hands were hidden within his robe, and he made no actual movements. From the strike to the finish, it completed in the blink of an eye, yet with astonishing power.

His attack speed, even surpassing the casting speed of soul skills.

This wasn’t the effect of Spirit Soldiers, as no weapon appeared, and it certainly wasn’t Spiritual Power Transformation.

The condensation speed of Spiritual Power Transformation couldn’t possibly be this fast, nor could the power be this terrifying.

This was clearly the secret skill [Blade Spirit] as mentioned by Miyamoto Tenshu.

After the strike, Miyamoto Tenshu returned to the mentor lineup, throughout appearing just like any ordinary old man.

He did not explain to everyone what Blade Spirit was, but this did not diminish the excitement and desire of the students in the slightest.

This included Yun Tianqi.

"Indeed, there’s no simple mentor, even a seemingly ordinary old man," Yun Tianqi remarked.

Although he was a Demon Spirit Master, his profession was a Bladesman, so how could he not be interested in the secret skill [Blade Spirit]?

Yun Tianqi’s initial choice for a mentor was Tang Rong, whose specialty was the Wind Chasing Saber, also known as the Thunder Blade, a blade technique of ultimate speed.

Yun Tianqi’s combat style very much resembled Tang Rong’s, becoming his disciple would certainly be beneficial.

However, at this moment, he was somewhat hesitant.

In Yun Tianqi’s view, [Blade Spirit] was stronger than [Wind Chasing Saber].

Not only Yun Tianqi, but Yun Kai was also very interested in [Blade Spirit].

Many were interested in this secret skill, regardless of whether they were Demon Spirit Masters or Martial Artists.

The most valuable aspect of this skill is the method of condensing the "spirit," not closely tied to the type of weapon.

Were it not for Zuo Ziyu’s Controlling Sword with Qi being more appealing to Yun Kai, he too would be inclined to become Miyamoto Tenshu’s disciple.

Following Miyamoto Tenshu, the next appearing mentors were also remarkable.

Mentor Kui Li, a divine-level illusionist, possessed a secret skill that could momentarily make illusions a reality.

Lin Feng felt it was not just a secret skill but a divine skill!

Of course, there must be limitations.

If any illusion could become reality, that would be far too overpowered.

That’s an ability even the gods wouldn’t have.

Mentor Jin Qizhen, who invented the body technique martial skill [Aurora], possessed speed comparable to instant teleportation.

Among the 37 mentors, his speed was undoubtedly the first.

Many people wish to become his apprentice, not just a few, as speed is more important than power.

Running fast, even if you can’t defeat your opponent, you can still remain undefeated.

Tutor Alfonso invented a secret skill [Demon Body], which, when applied, has a similar effect to Ye Xing’s [Frenzy], greatly enhancing combat capabilities.

The various secret skills opened the students’ eyes wide.

However, what surprised the students was that the secret skills presented by the King’s Tutor were even more astonishing than those of the Emperor’s Tutor.

When the fifteenth Emperor’s Tutor returned to the tutor lineup, a two-meter-tall man with a slightly chubby build and a Western face, covered with tattoos, stood up: "My nickname is Shou’Er, Upper Rank Martial King’s strength, secret skill: Beastification Transformation."

As Shou’Er spoke, he tore off his coat draped over himself.

A breathtaking body appeared in front of everyone.

It was a half-human, half-beast body; the left arm covered with golden fur, bearing sharp claws, and the right arm covered with jet-black scales, its hand already transformed into a mouth-like organ.

His chest appeared an eerie pale purple, and his back was covered with a red skeletal structure deeply embedded into his skin, faintly revealing the bare flesh inside.

As for his lower body, it wasn’t displayed, but judging by the slightly deformed shape, it was clearly also modified.

"My secret skill involves modifying the body, transplanting parts of a Demon Beast’s body onto my own, giving me a physique comparable to that of a Demon Beast, as well as possessing that Demon Beast’s soul skills. I’m not a Demon Spirit Master; I don’t have a Soul Sea. This secret skill grants me seven soul skills, and using them doesn’t consume Soul Power."

After a brief self-introduction, Shou’Er returned to the tutor lineup without demonstrating his strength.

For Demon Spirit Masters, soul skills are secrets that cannot be divulged.

Though Shou’Er is not a Demon Spirit Master, his soul skills also need to be kept confidential.

Compared to the tutors who appeared earlier, very few people were interested in Shou’Er.

Demon Spirit Masters have Demon Spirits, which allows them to undergo Demon Transformation, possessing both a Demon Beast’s body and soul skills; there’s no need to risk one’s life to modify the body.

Such modifications certainly come with significant risks, and even if successful, there might be side effects.

Furthermore, not everyone can accept becoming a half-beastman.

Although there weren’t many who were interested, it doesn’t mean that this secret skill isn’t valuable.

In Lin Feng’s eyes, this Beastification Transformation is far more precious than the secret skills showcased by previous tutors, worthy of being called a miracle.

A Martial Artist, without refining a Demon Spirit, not only can possess a Demon Beast’s body but also gain seven soul skills, something unheard of, with no clue on how it’s achieved.

According to Shou’Er, he can use soul skills without consuming Soul Power.

If one learns this secret skill, it’s equivalent to refining an additional Demon Spirit without having to spend large sums of money nurturing the Demon Spirit, gathering soul skills, or worrying about the success rate of absorbing soul skills.

An enemy fighting Shou’Er would also struggle to gauge when Shou’Er might launch a soul skill attack.

The boost in combat power is far from just a simple addition.

"Too many freaks."

Lin Feng could only secretly sigh in admiration.

And his astonishment was only just beginning.

The tutors who followed were even more extraordinary as they appeared one after another.

Among them, Tutor Clark was the most impressive; with the strength of an Upper Rank Spirit King, yet possessing his own Domain.

One must understand that even among those lofty Emperors, few possess a Domain.

Not only the students, but even the Emperor’s Tutors showed great interest in Clark.

After Clark returned to the tutor lineup, several Emperors approached to engage with him.

Before this, the Emperor’s Tutors rarely interacted with the King’s Tutors readily, and even if they did, it was mostly the King’s Tutors who approached them first.

This reveals just how incredible it is for Clark to have a Domain.

And the 25th tutor, a man named Taoist Muyun, with the strength of a Middle Rank Martial King, yet his body could undergo Elementalization, albeit for a short time, but one must know that Elementalization is the hallmark of a Martial Emperor.

These incredible abilities and secret skills continuously drew gasps of amazement from the students, stirring their emotions.

To become a tutor for this King Becoming Plan with the strength of the King Realm, each had secret skills they kept in reserve.

Their strength was far inferior to that of the Emperors, not even comparable, yet some of the secret skills they possessed were even more precious and rare than those of the Emperors, and even more breathtaking!

"How can one compare with that!"

Watching one tutor after another appear, drawing exclamations and admiration from the students, Alice’s nerves became increasingly tense.

The Emperors aside, what kind of monsters were her "colleagues" around her!

Who could tell her why a King could undergo Elementalization?

Why could a King possess a Domain?

Compared to the nearby tutors, she felt so mediocre.

Mediocrity aside, she was so unlucky as to be selected to appear last.

Wasn’t the last supposed to be the most impressive?

Shouldn’t it be Clark who possesses a Domain as the final appearance!

As the thirty-sixth tutor returned to the lineup, amid all the focused stares and cheers from her companion Black Girl, Alice suppressed her inner anxiety and stepped forward slowly....
