I Am Overlord

Chapter 1317: Disciple Guiding

Brightflower Chamber was quite an elegant name. In reality, it was indeed a place filled with picturesque charm. A clear river ran through their headquarters, and numerous decorated ships constantly moved about on the river. At the river's shore were rows of willow trees gently swaying in the wind. Gifted scholars and beautiful ladies could be seen strolling at the shore. Numerous brightly lit buildings ran alongside the river. From within the buildings, sounds of laughter could be heard occasionally. This was a place filled with a unique serene charm.

A place like this was best suited for one to live a peaceful and silent life. Many people coveted this territory of the Brightflower Chamber, but due to the Brightflower Chamber's strength, nobody dared to challenge them. Even back when Xiang Yangzhan had first established the Ziling Sect, he had not dared to intrude upon the Brightflower Chamber's territory. It was obvious that the Brightflower Chamber was no pushover.

Thus, the sudden alliance proposal by such an organization was quite puzzling. After listening to Pang Tongyuan's explanation, Xiang Shaoyun finally understood the reason for their proposal. Something had happened to their chamber master.

Brightflower Chamber's strongest expert was naturally their chamber master. Since something had happened to him, the chamber started feeling a sense of crisis. They were afraid that powerful enemies would attack them and that the people under their rule would revolt. Thus, they had decided to ally themselves with the Ziling Sect.

However, Xiang Shaoyun was having a hard time believing that explanation. After all, the Brightflower Chamber had a much longer history than the Ziling Sect and definitely had some trump cards of their own. How would they crumble apart so easily just because something had happened to their chamber master?

"Put this on hold for now. Continue observing and investigating the Brightflower Chamber before we come to a decision," said Xiang Shaoyun.

"Yes," Pang Tongyuan answered.

Next, Xiang Shaoyun asked about Scarlet Flame Monarch. Devouring Ghost had not received any news from Scarlet Flame Monarch. Fortunately, Scarlet Flame Monarch's jade slip was still shining, proving he was still alive.

"Young sect master, second brother will be fine. Don't worry," said Devouring Ghost.

"Um. I believe that when he returns, he will return with his peak strength," said Xiang Shaoyun with a nod. After a slight pause, he sent everyone away, leaving only Devouring Ghost behind. He then told Devouring Ghost about the Ghostface Sect.

"That unfilial disciple is not completely hopeless, it seems. He still managed to realize what was good for him. Otherwise, a day would come when he regrets his decision," said Devouring Ghost with a sharp glint in his eyes.

"The Di Clan is going to leave seclusion soon, so they will definitely come looking for trouble. I need to establish a teleportation formation connecting us with the angels and the Xiang Clan as soon as possible. Otherwise, we will be destroyed the moment a war breaks out. They are very strong," said Xiang Shaoyun solemnly.

"I'll assist you with all my strength!" vowed Devouring Ghost.

"Um. How about Big Brother Du? Is there any news from him?" asked Xiang Shaoyun.

"Nothing for now, but he should be fine. He's probably still tempering his saber mastery," said Devouring Ghost.

"Alright. Moving on, I still need you to handle the external affairs. At the same time, don't neglect to increase your strength. Chaos is coming soon," said Xiang Shaoyun solemnly.

He then went to see his disciple, Guo Po. Guo Po had grown into a young man filled with vitality. His body had developed nicely, giving him a sturdy appearance. As for his cultivation, he was now at the late-stage Transformation Realm. His progress had been rapid.

When Guo Po saw Xiang Shaoyun, he immediately knelt down and said, "This disciple greets his master!"

"You may rise," said Xiang Shaoyun with a satisfied nod.

When Xiang Shaoyun first healed Guo Po's leg, Guo Po was still at the Astral Realm. In only a few years, he had reached the late-stage Transformation Realm. His talent was quite astonishing.

Furthermore, his foundations were firm, granting him far more strength than a regular Transformation Realm cultivator. His achievement was all thanks to the few teachers tasked with instructing him. After Xiang Shaoyun gave Guo Po some tests, he was decently happy with this disciple but wasn't fully satisfied. Thus, he decided to personally teach his disciple.

"Pay attention. Each move must be simple and concise. Make sure your moves aren't flashy and empty. Control your strength precisely, exerting your strength appropriately in different situations. Be flexible between feints and real attacks. Do not be overly reliant on your battle techniques' set movesets. Relying on them will only restrict the strength of your moves and adversely affect your results in battle.

"When utilizing your astral energy, use your heart to feel your energy circulation. Ensure a complete grasp over the circulation and feel the change around you. Merge into the world around you, become a part of the natural world, allowing your astral energy, body, will, and techniques to become one."

...

Xiang Shaoyun imparted what he knew to Guo Po, hoping to fix Guo Po's shortcomings and allow Guo Po's cultivation to progress even faster. Guo Po had always been smart. At first, he did not understand Xiang Shaoyun's teachings, but after spending some time thinking, he slowly understood what he was taught. The more he learned, the more he realized that his master's strength was beyond his imagination. With that, his respect for his master rose significantly.

"Alright. What I taught you today will take you some time to digest. From now on, apart from cultivating hard, you also need to read more. Don't focus only on cultivation. Gaining knowledge is also important," reminded Xiang Shaoyun.

Next, Xiang Shaoyun imparted the Limit Stimulation Technique to Guo Po, granting Guo Po a body tempering technique. He hoped that Guo Po could even surpass him in the future. After Xiang Shaoyun finished teaching his disciple, he returned to his residence and tried getting close to his son again.

This time, he called Vicious One, Vicious Two, and Vicious Three over. The three little birds were now massive. They had all reached the Emperor Realm, looking incredibly majestic.

At first, Tuoba Lingtian was afraid of the three ferocious birds. But when Xiang Shaoyun promised to bring him flying into the sky, he braced himself and stepped forth. After Xiang Shaoyun helped him onto Vicious One's back, instead of being afraid, he started laughing joyfully.

Xiang Shaoyun was also laughing happily. He could finally play with his son. The feeling of being with his kin was incredibly comfortable. Both Tuoba Wan'er and Gong Qinyin smiled in a gratified manner when they saw the father and son pair happily spending time together.

"Son, let these three birds become your playmates from now on. What do you think?" said Xiang Shaoyun.

"Will they bring me to the sky every day?" asked Tuoba Lingtian.

"Of course. They are extremely obedient," said Xiang Shaoyun. "Son, your name is Lingtian. Your great-grandpa gave you this name, hoping that a day will come when all land under the sky comes under your rule, hoping that you will gain the ability to freely roam the world. Therefore, you can't rely on them only. You need to obtain the ability to freely travel everywhere with your own strength, understand?"

"Since those were Great-grandpa's words, I will definitely rule all land under the sky in the future," said Tuoba Lingtian with a clear look in his eyes.
