Absolute Great Teacher

Chapter 1249: Saint Emerges, Fragrance Permeates the World!

“Don’t panic!”

Although Hu Xingjiang said that, he still rushed toward the laboratory.

It was fine if the prison was destroyed, but the experimental data and samples must be protected. However, he had only rushed a few steps forward before suddenly stopping.

“Hmm?”

Hu Xingjiang looked puzzled and stared in a direction.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The surrounding spirit qi was triggered. It was as if the mud and sand were falling down after a torrential flood. The spirit qi was guided by a powerful and mysterious force and surged in a direction.

“This is… a breakthrough?”

Hu Xingjiang suddenly thought of a possibility, but he felt that it was impossible.

“Which cultivation tier’s breakthrough is this to be able to cause such a huge commotion?”

Sun Mo was shocked. He even heard the rumble of thunder. They were underground here, so if thunder could be heard here, that meant that the environment outside was even crazier.

He had only seen such a situation in the Battlegod Canyon when Shi Sheng was striving to become a secondary saint.

“Go!”

Hu Xingjiang called out to Sun Mo and changed directions, following the direction of the spirit qi surge.

...

The surface of the isolated island looked like the end of the world.

Rumble! Rumble!

Bolts of lightning snakes appeared in the sky and slashed at the isolated island like sharp blades of the gods. The surface of the sea was in great turbulence, and the waves hit the cliff again and again.

“Hurry, let’s go into the prison!”

Ji Han appeared at the first instant and led the people into the prison.

This was a sign of an impending storm. Those houses would not be able to withstand such havoc.

“F*ck, what’s going on?”

Wu You’s jaw dropped. He clutched his chest with his right hand, unable to breathe properly.

To cultivators, the denser the spirit qi, the more comfortable they would usually feel. However, if the flow of qi was too intense and agitated, it would instead feel irritating.

This was caused by the difference in the spiritual pressure in and outside of the body. If the difference was too great, it might even cause the cultivator to explode and die.

“There’s… someone trying to attempt a breakthrough to the saint realm!”

Pang Tong cried out in surprise, his lips trembling. He looked fervently at the cockroaches and rodents running around.

“What?”

Wu You was stunned. “Are you kidding?”

Becoming a saint was the most important thing in a great teacher’s life, even more so than their life. Therefore, any secondary saint would be fully prepared for that.

Attempting for a breakthrough in such a lousy environment?

Was he complaining that the success rate was too high?

“I’m not lying to you. My father was fortunate enough to have seen Secondary Saint Wang becoming a saint. At that time, the mountains and earth shook, and heavenly thunder rumbled. All living beings would move out and gather in a room to prostrate in worship to congratulate the birth of a saint!”

Pang Tong remembered it very clearly because his father would talk about that scene whenever he drank alcohol. His eyes were always filled with envy and admiration when talking about it.

Sniff! Sniff!

Pang Tong sniffed hard. “Can you smell it?”

“What?”

Other than the damp and moldy smell of the prison, Wu You couldn’t smell anything else.

“There’s a strange fragrance. My father has this saying—a saint emerges in the world, fragrance permeates the world!”

Pang Tong stopped talking. He started running excitedly in the direction of the spirit qi flow.

“There’s really a saint?”

Wu You chased after him as well, feeling conflicted.

A saint was an existence who stood at the pinnacle of the great teacher world. As long as a saint was willing, their own strength and influence would allow them to build up a great faction in a short time.

If a great teacher in the Nine Provinces became a saint, Wu You would definitely jump up in joy. This was because every saint could bring about changes to the world. However, this was the Prison of Desolation, so this secondary saint who became a saint was definitely a criminal. Once such a person became a saint…

Hopefully, this would not give the Dark Dawn another great officer!

Wu You looked troubled.

Normally, it would be very difficult for the two of them to go down to the lowest level because they would not be able to solve the difficult problem at the checkpoint. However, the prison was in chaos today, and some prison guards had run away in midst of the chaos, causing the checkpoint to be unguarded.

“F*ck, a saint has appeared? It’s really a miracle that happens once in a hundred years. Hurry up and let me out!”

“Old Dog Ji Han, let me out quickly! I want to go see the saint!”

“Who became a saint? Is it Teacher Hu Xingjiang?”

The criminals in the prison weren’t all good people. Those heinous people took the opportunity to make noise and cause a ruckus. Some of them even wanted to escape from prison.

Looking at the ferocious expressions of the prisoners, Lian Hongying felt a little panicked and ran crazily through the prison. If these people escaped, she would be doomed. However, she was unwilling to leave just like that.

This was the birth of a saint, something that one wouldn’t be able to see in their entire life. Observing this breakthrough would be extremely helpful to her career as a teacher.

Lian Hongying gritted her teeth and decided to go and take a look.

When she reached the bottom level, she realized that there were a lot of people gathered at the checkpoint.

Other than people, there was also a large group of snakes, bugs, rats, and ants. They kept on knocking against the door, making people’s scalps turn numb.

Fortunately, these snakes, bugs, rats, and ants only wanted to enter through the door and did not attack the humans nearby.

“Why are they not moving anymore?”

Lian Hongying asked anxiously.

“The door is locked. It can’t be opened!”

Pang Tong kicked the door angrily.

“Where’s Sun Mo? Hurry up and bring him here!”

Someone shouted.

“It’s useless. This is the Starrysky Moon Rune, the most complicated spirit rune lock in the world. It’d be useless even if Sun Mo comes.”

Someone who knew their stuff shook his head.

“Smash open the door!”

Everyone was anxious as the sound of the thunder was weakening. This meant that the secondary saint had either failed or was about to become a saint. Regardless of which it was, they had to see it with their own eyes in order to gain more experience.

Even if there wasn’t any experience to gain, it’d still be useful to flaunt about.

Fortunately, just as everyone started smashing the door, Ji Han arrived with a group of prison guards.

“What are you guys doing?”

Ji Han bellowed furiously.

“Teacher Ji, open the door quickly! The breakthrough is about to end!”

Pang Tong urged.

“You guys can’t go in!”

Ji Han warned. He wanted to open the door, but when he saw the swarm of bugs, he didn’t dare to.

“There’s no need to look at them. They won’t disappear until you let them see the saint!”

Pang Tong explained.

Ji Han also wanted to rush over immediately, so he opened the door.

Boom!

A strange and profound fragrance surged out.

Squeak!

The agitated bugs immediately fell silent and spontaneously lined up to advance.

When Ji Han and the others smelled the fragrance, they instantly felt invigorated. Their anxious and frustrated emotions calmed down instantly.

A peaceful and warm emotion grew in their chests.

Everyone walked forward slowly. Although they were anxious, they could not walk fast even if they wanted to.

This was because of the saint’s might that naturally radiated from a saint. No living being would dare to act rashly in front of a saint, and they had to maintain their respect.

“The might of a saint is actually so terrifying?”

Ji Han was envious.

By the time everyone rushed over to a cell, they saw that Hu Xingjiang and Sun Mo had arrived.

“Teacher Sun!”

Pang Tong greeted Sun Mo softly, but his eyes drifted toward the cell.

Sun Mo placed his index finger in front of his lips and gestured to them to keep quiet.

Meanwhile, Hu Xingjiang stood with his hands behind his back and looked at Yang Shizhan with deep shock. He could not understand how the latter could become a saint.

He was clearly someone who was about to die!

“How can Yang Shizhan become a saint?”

Ji Han’s face was filled with confusion. He cast an impatient glance toward the cell and then froze.

Before this, Yang Shizhan had been a human swine. Other than a section of his left arm, he didn’t have any other limbs. Yet, he was now sitting cross-legged and floating in the air, emitting a saintly platinum radiance.

His arms and legs, with the exception of his palms and feet, had grown out. Although his ears that had been cut off were smaller than normal, they were there right on the sides of his head. Even the scars on his cheek had fully healed.

“Teacher, what’s going on?”

Ji Han asked Hu Xingjiang, but his gaze landed on Sun Mo. It was most likely related to him, right?

“Be quiet! Don’t be rude in front of a saint!”

“...”

Ji Han shut his mouth.

The snakes, bugs, rats, and ants around the prison cell also became quiet. The ants and cockroaches didn’t seem to be any different from normal, but the rats stood up, knelt on the ground, and kowtowed to Yang Shizhan.

This scene brought both shock and envy to everyone.

Soon, the sound of thunder faded away and the seething spirit qi became weaker, slowly returning to stability.

Swoosh!

Yang Shizhan opened his eyes. At that moment, everyone seemed to see a rising sun that washed away all the darkness and confusion. Their life prospects seemed to have become brighter.

“Is this what a saint is?”

Sun Mo was astonished. To think that Yang Shizhan could give people such great power with just a gaze.

“I’m sorry to have caused all of you trouble!”

Yang Shizhan apologized.

The moment he spoke, it was like a Buddhist chant, fresh and pleasant to the ears. It made people feel as if they had heard the most wonderful song and could not help but feel intoxicated.

Moreover, every time he spoke, a sweet fragrance would emit from his mouth. The scent could clear their minds and tune up their senses, as if they were reinforced by a great teacher halo that had a similar effect to one that would help students in their learning.

That wasn’t all. Clusters of flowers, as well as lush peach and willow trees filled with fruits, were growing around him.

“This student wouldn’t dare!”

All the great teachers present, including Secondary Saint Hu Xingjiang and 7-stars great teacher Ji Han, lowered their heads and bowed, addressing themselves as students.

“Everyone, there’s no need to be so polite!”

Yang Shizhan said apologetically, “My limbs are inconvenient and I might appear rude in many situations. Please pardon me!”

Everyone had smiles on their faces and continued to say that they didn’t dare to do so. Not to mention sitting, even if he were to lie down and talk to them, he would have the right to do so.

Yang Shizhan looked at those snakes, bugs, rats, and ants but did not show any disgust or contempt. Instead, he instructed indifferently, “Disperse!”

As he spoke, Yang Shizhan waved his hand and a platinum-colored great teacher halo scattered out.

Sun Mo recognized that this was a halo exclusive to saints, and it activated intelligence.

To put it simply, it would make all living things smarter, raising their intelligence. However, any living being would only be able to enjoy it once.

It was hard to tell with the other bugs and cockroaches, but the rats kowtowed to express their thanks and shocked everyone. They then watched the small creatures leave in order.

Ji Han wanted to secretly size up Yang Shizhan, but he could not do it.

After becoming a saint, not only could one teach all people in the world, but they could also preach to animals and plants because saints could communicate with all living things.

In the future, no matter where the saint went, there would be peach and plum blossoms. Even in spring, there would be lush trees that provided shade for the saint to rest his feet under.

After becoming a saint, Yang Shizhan’s expression was calm without any complacency. He looked at Sun Mo and bowed deeply.

“Teacher Sun, thank you for your teachings. They made me repent and understand the true meaning of being a teacher, allowing me to regain my initial intent and eventually advance.”

Yang Shizhan had given up on life, but Sun Mo’s words were like a bolt of lightning, breaking through the shackles on his body and the fog in front of him. They had allowed him to find his goal and direction to continue forward.

Of course, Yang Shizhan had gained a lot of insight from his decades of prison life, as well as his experiences as an experimental subject. Sun Mo’s words could be considered as a spark that could change Yang Shizhan from a quantitative to a qualitative level.

Sssss!

Upon hearing this, everyone was stunned, especially when they saw a saint bow to Sun Mo. That…

Wasn’t that too amazing?

It was no wonder he could teach a good-for-nothing like Li Ziqi to be a great talent.

“I wouldn’t dare to accept it. It’s your comprehension skills that are on a higher level.”

Sun Mo avoided the bow.

Yang Shizhan smiled and did not insist. His gratitude and repayment for Sun Mo didn’t need such superficial greetings.

“Teacher Sun, when will you be returning to the Nine Provinces?”

Yang Shizhan asked respectfully.

Pang Tong and the others were so envious that they wanted to cry.

(Listen to this. To be called a teacher by a saint is such an awesome event. One could brag about it for a lifetime.)

“It will probably take another one to two years.”

Sun Mo wasn’t sure either. In any case, he planned to return within five years, even if he couldn’t complete the mission.

“Alright, when the time comes, please tell me!”

Yang Shizhan requested.

Sun Mo’s expression changed. (From the sound of it, Saint Yang intends to follow me in the future?)

(Oh my god, if the Central Province Academy could have a saint, that would be amazing. Not only would its teaching abilities improve, but its appeal would also increase. When that happened, a lot of students would enroll in the school.)

“Everyone, I still have to go into seclusion to meditate, so I won’t be entertaining you.”

Yang Shizhan gave the word to send everyone off.

He wanted to reflect on the insights he had gained during the breakthrough and also continue cultivating the Undying Mystic Art to recuperate his body. Therefore, he did not have the time to entertain them.

Naturally, no one dared to disturb Yang Shizhan and they all took their leave.

When they reached the fifth level, Ji Han could not hold it in anymore.

“Teacher, Saint… Saint Yang’s body…” Ji Han was about to die of curiosity. “Did Sun Mo’s God Hands do that?”

“It’s not his God Hands, but it’s indeed because of Sun Mo. He taught Saint Yang a divine art!”

Hu Xingjiang didn’t hide his admiration for this junior.

“...”

Ji Han was stunned. Although Hu Xingjiang did not mention the grade of the divine art, Ji Han knew that it was definitely a peerless-grade saint-tier one. Otherwise, how could it be possible for a human swine to grow new limbs?

If Ji Han was in Sun Mo’s shoes, he would be unwilling to give such a cultivation art to others, not even if it was a secondary saint.

“Teacher Sun, congratulations!”

Everyone gave their congratulations.

“Teacher Sun, how did you do that?”

Pang Tong asked. The others looked at him as if they were looking at a monster, but at the same time, they were eager to know how Sun Mo had given Yang Shizhan guidance.

“Stop with all the noise! Everyone is dismissed!”

Hu Xingjiang spoke up, “Teacher Sun, come with me!”
