Chapter 0309: 0309
These words rang out loud and clear to Wu Yu even though his vision was completely obstructed . In a flash, a wave of heat rushed towards the area two inches under his navel . There, an insignia started to form . It was of a small monkey with deep golden hair that dazzled in contrast to the light gold color of Wu Yu's Jindan .
Boom!
As the mystique's insignia was etching itself onto Wu Yu's Jindan, his surroundings dissipated into thin air . Wu Yu stood before the empty palace and was drained of all energy . He was still reeling in shock and could not think straight . It was as though he had just experienced an extremely long dream and was not quite awake just yet .
From head to toe, his body still felt like it was scorching with flames .
"Wah . " All of a sudden, a girl's cry jolted Wu Yu back to his senses . Around the pitch-dark surroundings of the palace, a spiritual qi still lingered . The young girl who was weeping before him was none other than Ming Long . While she seemed happy and content just moments before, this wench now had a face full of tears . With an angry pout, she glared at Wu Yu with the ferocity of a predator wanting to consume its prey whole .
"What are you crying about?" Wu Yu did not know whether to laugh or cry . He had never seen her in such a state of grief after all .
"It's not fair, Wah, it's so unfair!" Ming Long cried out as she stomped around in anger .
"How so?" Wu Yu was stunned .
Ming Long's anger made her cheeks blush a bright red as she exclaimed, "Aiyah, this old bastard is definitely biased against girls! When I tried to obtain the Unshackled Doppelganger Mystique back then, I first had to spend three years trying to communicate with him, before spending another three years painstakingly erasing the previous mystique that I had already mastered . After that, it took yet another three years for the mystique to be branded on my body . I had to go through so much pain and misery, yet gods be damned, three days was all it took for you . He even personally branded the insignia on you! Even without any cultivation, you're able to use the mystique! Come now, don't you think that's totally unfair!? Aiyah, to think I respected that old bastard so much . I should have known that he was such a shameless old geezer, wa!"
"What? I've gained the mystique, and have no need for cultivation?" Wu Yu was completely taken aback . Upon closer inspection, he realized that there was indeed a new insignia on his Jindan . He could feel its presence slightly . It became obvious to him that he would be able to start cultivating this mystique, and as he focused his mind, he could even feel the profound powers of the mystique and understand the ways to improve and develop it .
"Damn it, you're still playing dumb after getting off easy . It's about time Granny teaches you a lesson!" Ming Long lunged at him . Alas, she was still within the Ruyi Jingu Bang, so Wu Yu simply watched her formless image prance about .
Wu Yu finally understood . The sexist old bastard that she was referring to was none other than the Great Sage, Heaven's Equal . To tell the truth, if he was able to deal with the supposedly impossible task of obtaining the Heaven Dao Mystique within three days, the gap in skill between Ming Long and himself was definitely way too huge .
"Alright, stop messing around . Everyone has a different level of potential . You should consider yourself lucky enough to have met me . At least there's a chance for you to return to the human realm . " Wu Yu smiled as he teased her .
This drove Ming Long's anger through the roof . As she wept and seethed in anger, she swore that if she was able to live, she would definitely annihilate Wu Yu's entire family in order to take her revenge .
"Oh cruel heavens and earth, you and that old bastard are so despicable . I can't believe that you've ganged up on a poor, weak girl like me!" Ming Long writhed about wildly for a long time before she finally calmed down . Earlier on, she had exaggerated about the 30 years to test Wu Yu's mettle, but Wu Yu was already done after three days . This was a slap in the face…
However, the fact was that the whole transformation truly felt like an eternity to Wu Yu . He felt like he had spent a long time in a single place . Perhaps he really took a thirty years .
The intricacies of this mystique were beyond his comprehension .
Once Ming Long was no longer annoyed, Wu Yu started to recall the events that had occurred . The first thing that came to his mind was that when the Great Sage, Heaven's Equal first spoke, his voice was stunningly loud . As he was too shocked at the time, Wu Yu was unable to clearly hear most of what he was saying, except for six words .
"The stalemate breaker, the chosen one . "
But why “stalemate breaker?”
The Great Sage, Heaven's Equal was an immortal who should have been enjoying the adoration and worship of all in the palaces of heaven . Why did he vanish without a trace and leave behind this legacy? If he had not met with a serious mishap, how did the Ruyi Jingu Bang even end up in a place like this?
Wu Yu had a lingering feeling that now that he had inherited this legacy, it would not simply be a means for him to become an immortal . He suspected that there were other responsibilities and burdens that came with it .
"Uncle Sun, who exactly are you? Could you perhaps have been the Great Sage, Heaven's Equal himself?"
As Wu Yu recalled the old man, he could not help but tear up . He remembered his days in the Heavenly Sword Sect as if it were just yesterday . He fondly recalled the kindness of the old man and the warmth of the Ruyi Jingu Bang .
The Milky Way Suppressing Godly Metal Treasure, his inherited treasure .
Sun Wudao . Wudao .
"Wu Yu, what's going on?" Ming Long stared at him with wide open eyes .
"Oh, it's nothing . " Wu Yu came back to his senses from his deep thoughts . He looked at Ming Long and realized that her angry expressions were rather cute after all . Despite her extremely old age, she was very much like a little sister .
He recalled the next line . "Today, I impart to you the Unshackled Doppelganger Mystique . On the day that you succeed, you can create hundreds of thousands of body doubles, and you will be the commander of an army of millions . "
Unshackled Doppelganger!
This was what the mystique was called .
On the day that you succeed, you can create hundreds of thousands of doppelgangers? That had to be an exaggeration . Wu Yu recalled that this was indeed the mystique that Ming Long had mentioned before . However, Ming Long was far from achieving the stage where she could create hundreds of thousands of body doubles .
You will be the commander of an army of millions? Only immortals could command an army of that size . Surely the “millions” was an exaggeration as well? Wu Yu shuddered at these thoughts .
