Chapter 308: This Old Man Was Blind

"The difference between my combat power and my cultivation Realm is not that large."

"Three Emperor-rank Cultivation Techniques, with one even at Major Achievement, only increased my combat power by half a small Realm."

"It seems that the further one goes on the path of the Dao, the greater the gap between Cultivation Techniques becomes."

"But thinking about it, it makes sense; the higher the Realm, the wider the chasm, so a lower-tier Cultivation Technique naturally cannot provide much of an increase in combat power."

Su Lang pondered while observing Invincible Gold's expression.

At this moment.

"As expected of the powerful Martial Venerable who saved Dongfang City single-handedly."

Invincible Gold strode toward Su Lang and smiled, "Such will, such spirit, such vision—I, Invincible Gold, admire you endlessly."

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone from the Four Families of Xishan instantly froze!

Even Zhou Guangji looked at Su Lang with a stunned expression.

This person was actually the Su Lang who turned the tide in Dongfang City!

They all knew of the deeds of Su Lang from Dongfang City; after all, a Wind Spirit Clan Martial God had descended there!

However, they never imagined that the Su Lang from Xuanyuan Martial Arts Academy before them was actually the powerful Martial Venerable who slaughtered dozens of S-Rank Fierce Beasts in Dongfang City!

"This!!"

Zhou Guangji's pupils constricted, and his face was immediately filled with terror.

He had just dared to get angry at a powerful Martial Venerable and even wanted to coerce him into joining the Four Families of Xishan?

Heavens, he was completely courting death!

"Senior Su Lang."

"This old man was blind; please forgive me, Senior!"

Without a second thought, Zhou Guangji immediately bowed and apologized!

The people from the Four Families of Xishan were also full of panic, bowing deeply and begging for mercy in terror.

Among them, Zhou Yuque was dragged along to apologize with a dull expression, his mind completely blank.

The Su Lang he had repeatedly called a classmate was actually a Martial Venerable!

"Haha, I didn't expect you all to investigate so quickly."

"I've been in Lanxing City for less than ten days since coming from Dongfang City, and you've already found me."

Facing Invincible Gold, Su Lang remained calm and composed.

In reality, Su Lang had seen this Invincible Gold before; he had appeared at a previous Medicinal Pill auction.

Although he had used some degree of disguise, Su Lang still remembered that aura very clearly.

Because, at the auction, while competing for a Martial Venerable Rank Medicinal Pill, this Invincible Gold had gotten anxious and released his true aura.

"A Martial Venerable who got anxious while bidding for my Medicinal Pill?"

Looking at the muscular bald man in front of him, a hint of a smile couldn't help but rise in Su Lang's heart.

"Actually, I didn't expect that Su Lang from Xuanyuan Academy was the Su Lang from Dongfang City either; it's all a coincidence, fate."

Invincible Gold examined Su Lang, his eyes filled with intense curiosity.

On the surface, Su Lang only emitted a faint Spiritual Qi fluctuation of the Peak Martial General Rank.

But his real combat power had reached the terrifying Martial Venerable Rank!

"Perhaps he used some kind of technique to conceal his aura."

"But his age is truly under twenty; that aura of youth absolutely cannot be fake."

"What method did this Su Lang use? How could he Cultivate to the Martial Venerable Rank in just over a dozen years?"

"I Cultivated for six or seven hundred years to reach the Martial Venerable level; his growth speed, in the eyes of a Mortal, is no different from an infant instantly growing into an adult!"

As these thoughts raced through his mind, a trace of shock and greed gradually emerged from the depths of Invincible Gold's eyes.

And besides that, there was also a trace of wariness!

After a pause, he was about to speak.

But suddenly, a wave of Breakthrough fluctuation came from Su Lang!

"What!?"

Invincible Gold, Zhou Guangji, and the others were shocked to discover that Su Lang's Spiritual Qi fluctuation had actually advanced from Peak Martial General to the Quasi-Martial Marshal Rank!

That's right, just a moment ago, the System sent a notification that he could perform a Breakthrough, so Su Lang broke through directly.

Actually, Su Lang was also quite surprised.

But after a little thought, he understood that this was the terrifying cultivation gain brought by the 10,912 times cultivation speed of the Flawless Aptitude!

A Peak Martial General with ordinary Flawless Aptitude would need about 3 years, which is over a thousand days, to break through to Quasi-Martial Marshal.

Therefore, Su Lang only needed 0.1 days, which is two or three hours, to break through!

And it had already been an hour or two since he upgraded the One-Click Cultivation Function to level 13.

Adding in the cultivation accumulated after his previous Breakthrough, this time was exactly when Su Lang would break through!
