Simultaneous travel: I am a talented person in all the worlds

Chapter 286 Comparison is the thief of joy

A warehouse near the sea.

Mo Yu led Ruan Feng inside, only to find the huge warehouse completely empty, without any goods or a single person in sight.

Only on the second floor, a solitary door remained open.

A moment later, light footsteps came from upstairs.

Qu Tong, wearing a black off-the-shoulder sweater, walked out. The soft knit clung to her shapely figure, and as she descended the metal staircase, her mature, voluptuous figure swayed slightly.

Despite the fact that Mo Yu hadn't explained anything about Qu Tong to Ruan Feng along the way.

But when Ruan Feng sensed Qu Tong's Qi and confirmed her identity, this old hand who had lived for over a hundred years had already confirmed many things.

He, Ruan Feng, was born into a family of orphans.

Regardless of the era, it takes a lone individual with no connections to survive in this world.

Besides exceptional talent and outstanding skills, one must also be quick-witted.

Nguyen Phuong was certainly not the kind of old-fashioned person who had turned his brain into stone.

Over the past few decades...

He was living in seclusion.

But that was just him trying to avoid trouble and find some peace and quiet.

Despite his humble origins, he has never neglected to pay attention to the world.

In terms of understanding this world, or at least the world of supernatural beings, even Mo Yu, who has only been in the industry for half a year, and Qu Tong, who is in charge of intelligence, may not be able to match him, this 'living fossil', in many aspects.

"Greetings, junior Qu Tong."

Qu Tong walked closer and bowed respectfully.
"I am very sorry to 'invite' you here in this way. I hope you will forgive me, Seventeenth Master."

"It's alright, it's alright. In fact, I should be thanking you..."

Ruan Feng waved his hand dismissively, then turned to look at Mo Yu.
"If it weren't for this trip, how could I have received guidance from Daoist Moyu, which allowed me to see the light after the storm and to see the path ahead clearly again?"

Even if no one contacted him, Nguyen Phong realized how troublesome Nathan Island would be in the coming period.

He will also find time soon to leave the island where he has lived for many years.

As for the 'peace' that Lao Wang showed him on the ship, the kind of peace that comes from giving up oneself.

If it were before he met Mo Yu, when he was completely desperate about the future, he might have been very tempted.

But those who practice spiritual cultivation...

He's the kind of stubborn person who will grit his teeth and keep going no matter what, as long as he can see a path.

Unless you reach the end and find it's a dead end, or you really can't go on.

Otherwise, what true cultivator would bother to explore other unorthodox and heretical paths? What difference would that make from abandoning the true path?
"Then this junior must sincerely congratulate Seventeenth Master on taking another step forward on the path of cultivation."

Qu Tong offered her congratulations with a light smile, her eyes glancing sideways at Mo Yu with a somewhat complicated expression.

She truly hadn't expected that Ruan Feng, who had been trapped for so long, would actually be enlightened by Mo Yu.

From a younger generation's perspective, she was naturally genuinely happy for Nguyen Phuong.

Once Ruan Feng's inner knot was untied and his Dao heart was strengthened, all the methods she used to easily control him became ineffective.

Things took a turn for the worse than she had anticipated.

However, the final outcome might... be good, who knows?

Mo Yu, however, was too lazy to bother with the intricacies of the situation and calmly spoke:
"I've already invited the people you asked me to invite. What about the rest?"

"Master Moyu, please wait a moment..."

Qu Tong didn't waste any words. She touched her brow with her fingertip, and a ball of blue memory light was slowly peeled away.

"This is the complete version of 'Dual-Hand Technique' that you requested, Master. Please take a look."

She pushed her ball of light, along with a portion of her own red aura, toward Mo Yu.

It wasn't that she didn't want to engage in a struggle to gain more initiative for herself.

The shadow that Mo Yu had cast on her before was simply too deep!
If she uttered another word of nonsense, Mo Yu's invisible sword would sever her neck in the next instant. That would truly mean death!

Moreover, it would be a pointless death!
Mo Yu reached out, and the ball of energy directly entered his palm.

After a quick check to confirm that it was indeed what he wanted, he turned and left.

"Master Moyu, please wait a moment!"

Qu Tong was naturally unwilling to let him leave just like that:
“I know you dislike mundane matters. But what I’m about to mention, I think… might interest you.”

Mo Yu stopped, but instead of looking at her, he focused his gaze on a mosquito that was quietly flying in through the door and window.

For Mo Yu, who has also cultivated the "Feng Hou Qi Men" to an extremely high level and comprehended the "Transformation into a Marquis" from it, thus gaining control over all of his own transformations.

Such methods of deception might fool others, but they could never escape his notice.

"Hehe, you lad, your cultivation has improved quite a bit in just a few days! Even I... am starting to have trouble seeing through you now."

Then a slightly hoarse, aged voice rang out.

The mosquito, which looked exactly like an ordinary Aedes mosquito, suddenly emitted thick, billowing black energy.

Immediately afterward, amidst the surging black energy, the mosquito transformed into a thin, old Taoist priest dressed in a gray robe, with a pointed mouth and monkey-like cheeks, and a slightly hunched figure, resembling an old monkey that had become a spirit.

"Senior Zhou Sheng."

Mo Yu bowed respectfully.

He then touched his forehead and extracted a cluster of memory energy.

Mo Yu has always held these seniors who genuinely helped her in high esteem.

"These are some of my recent insights and understandings on 'Qimen'. I would appreciate your kind review and corrections, senior."

"You kid..."

Zhou Sheng gazed at the ball of qi floating in front of him. His thin, wrinkled face softened slightly, and a relieved smile appeared on his lips, revealing a set of clean, even teeth.

After parting ways with Mo Yu last time, he returned to Wudang Mountain and stayed there peacefully for a while.

In their quest to comprehend the Feng Hou Qi Men technique and ensure its transmission within Wudang, three senior brothers became deeply engrossed in their inner world, unable to extricate themselves...

Brother Fang passed away many years ago, his life force exhausted.

The remaining Senior Brothers Hong and Lu were indeed forcibly rescued from the inner realm by Mo Yu.

Although the special restriction prevented the two of them from cultivating Qi at all, it was enough to allow these two senior brothers to spend their last ten years of their lives in peace.

For Zhou Sheng, who has lived for two cycles of sixty years, the number of old friends still alive in the world is truly few and far between; if even one is lost, they can never be found again.

Although he didn't say it aloud, he went back and gave those two old guys, Hong and Lu, a good scolding and ridicule.

However, seeing that his two senior brothers, who had cultivated together on Wudang Mountain since childhood, were able to break free from their inner world and seemed to be in good spirits, Zhou Sheng was very happy.

What's more, this kid in front of us is a rare genius disciple of Wudang, one of the few he has seen in decades, who is able to comprehend the Feng Hou Qi Men on his own!
He was Zhou Sheng's only and most prized disciple in his life!

What? You mean there's another kid named Wang Ye who's also learned this technique?
Sorry, we're really not that close.

Compared to the one before him, who was decisive in killing, possessed extraordinary comprehension, and dared to slaughter the entire Wang family;

Without needing to say a word to guide them, they can understand the wonder of 'fixing the center palace' on their own;
Seeing that he had performed the transformation technique, he instantly realized that 'transforming myself into a king' was the true essence of seeking within and controlling one's own transformation...

Wang Ye, that idiot, is a hopeless case!
Even with Mo Yu absorbing most of the fire for him, he was still entangled in Jin Kui'er's little tricks from the Shu Zi Sect and couldn't get away, leaving him in a sorry state.

He eagerly transformed himself and ran up to him, offering two hints and suggestions, but the kid still didn't get it, his mind still preoccupied with his B-type expansion array.

Zhou Sheng was almost driven half to death with anger!

If it weren't for Mo Yu's reckless behavior and his restless nature, Zhou Sheng would have been too lazy to even glance at that unfortunate kid Wang Ye.

Mo Yu is so much less troublesome!
Not only is he exceptionally talented, requiring no guidance from him, but he is now stronger than him, yet he remains as respectful to his teacher as ever, without the slightest hint of arrogance.

Even now, she can use her own insights and experiences gained from her own spiritual practice to guide him.

Zhou Sheng felt increasingly gratified as he looked at the scene, but then he thought of Wang Ye's good-for-nothing behavior...

Tsk, I should probably find a chance to throw it away, lest I tarnish my lifelong reputation.
