Unfathomable Senior

Chapter 407

‘They sure are quick to change their mind whenever there is something to gain for them…’

Zhang Dong wanted to shake his head at the group of cultivators before him. After they saw that he was somewhat able to aid in their cultivation growth they suddenly got more interested in what he had to offer.

The point of no return wasn’t quite there as before a full-blown fight could break out and an oppressive spiritual sense filled the area.

“Stop this shameful act this instant!”

A womanly voice echoed through the area as the young lady called out from the top. She and her brothers were still not convinced about what he was capable of. It was enough for her to raise her voice to make all of the people here back away. While they clearly were interested in Zhang Dong’s holy element capabilities they were unwilling to go against someone from the royal family, at least not just yet.

“It’s okay little Yanyu, your uncle doesn’t care, let them come, I’ll give them some pointers.”

Zhang Dong chuckled out loud while looking up at the young beauty. The moment he called her ‘little’ he could see a small twitch by her left eye. It was clear that she wasn’t fond of him too much but he still was the senior here.

“I could give you some pointers if you wish for it, you don’t have to be reserved, we are one big happy family are we not?”

After being led around the compound and looked down on he was also slowly starting to be fed up with how they were treating him. The danger of going up against these three was more towards their guards but those would probably not act against him that was getting the Emperor’s favor.

“You wish to give us pointers? Fine, this Long Fengge will be your opponent!”

While the young lady was somewhat taken back by the proposition, the youngest brother was quick to jump in. It was clear that he was maddened by the words, in his eyes Zhang Dong was some kind of swindler unworthy of the ground that they walked on.

The young man descended from the booth that the three were previously sitting on. All the other clan members quickly moved out of the way while bowing their heads. It was clear that these three young lords had the utmost respect from the people here.

“Why isn’t it Little Fengge? I’m sure this will be a good learning experience for the both of us, you can come at me when you are ready.”

Zhang Dong just smiled at the young man before him, he was playing the benevolent uncle that just meant well. He noticed a similar twitch in the young man’s eye, it was clear that Long Fengge wanted to do nothing else than wipe the smirk from Zhang Dong’s face while using his fists.

He took a good look at the young man. His hair was very long and his height was slightly above average. His face was quite handsome and he did look somewhat similar to the Azure Emperor. His father’s features were a bit more chiseled while this young man’s were a bit softer.

‘I wonder how Jun will look when he is his age…’

His son was quite young but was quite a cute-looking child. He hoped that he would develop into a handsome young man. The biggest problem here was if he would be able to reach that point as this whole war dilemma was giving Zhang Dong a headache. Then there was Wang Long that could be anywhere.

“Then ‘uncle’ I will begin!”

Long Fengge shouted out while surrounding his body with the same blue aura as his previous opponent. This was enough to pull Zhang Dong back to reality as he still had to show to these youths that they needed to give him some respect.

The technique was the same but it was of a different caliber than the previous one. He wasn’t sure of Long Fengge’s motives but it seemed that the young man wanted to use a technique that he had already seen against him. It was an improved version of it, he probably intended to embarrass him if he wasn’t able to take this move that he had already witnessed.

This azure flame technique was somewhat denser this time around. It was clear to Zhang Dong that the nascent soul was adding to its strength and making it burn in a fierce deep blue. When he recalled the other man’s azure flames they were of a more pale coloring.

‘I guess depending on the color you can measure the proficiency in the flames. By the way, Bob, are you done with analyzing the flames?’

‘67% done with the analysis, more data needed for faster calculations.’

Zhang Dong looked at the angry young man that was shoving his palm into his face. Before it collided with his face he managed to dodge it to the side. The palm strike caused a massive shockwave that was also consumed by blue flames. If he didn’t have a tough shield made out of golden light around his body he would probably receive some damage.

“Hoh, those are some powerful strikes nephew!”

Thus to gather more information he decided to play around with this young man that was only an early stage nascent soul cultivator. His fighting prowess would be actually closer to a middle stage master but not like Zhang Dong wasn’t much stronger than that.

“Are the Azure flames ineffective?”

The people watched from the sides while trying not to be blown away by the shockwaves of spiritual energy. Now with the addition of nascent soul energy, the whole arena started to rumble slightly. This caused a defensive formation to be automatically triggered that surrounded the part where Zhang Dong and the young master was sparring.

Even though the Long Clan was a powerful entity, there weren’t that many nascent soul masters that exchanged blows in this place. This was a chance for the juniors to see real masters of the craft at work. Thus quite a crowd formed around the arena as everyone else that was sparring went right over.

There were even some people using recording devices. Such treasures were quite rare outside but at the Azure castle, there were some people that had them in their possession.

‘98%…99%…100%…’

‘Analysis of the azure flames done, presenting the interpretation to the user.’

Through his new Ai helper, Bob Zhang Dong was now able to inspect energy signatures in a more scientific way. Even though he didn’t possess the cultivation manual for this skill, he had enough of them to reference this data. With the help of his system, he would be able to create this technique through previous knowledge, at least to a certain point.

‘Not enough data to create a full complete Azure Flame manual.’

‘Not enough knowledge hm? Could you replace some of the divine energy parts with my holy energies?’

Zhang Dong’s Dao of the Holy was above the one that this azure flame was using. His knowledge of the flame dao was also up there but not as quiet as his heavenly lightning. But, he did have a crafting abode where he could mix other techniques with each other.

‘Do you wish to combine the Incomplete Azure Flame technique with previously established techniques? If so please choose the manuals you wish to mix.’

While before leaving his world he needed to physically enter his crafting abode, this wasn’t the case since Bob appeared in his life. This Ai companion was not an integral part of his system and worked like an app. His functions mixed with some of the ones in the crafting abode and now Zhang Dong could mix his techniques through him.

‘How about we mix in some of these…’

There were a couple of high level techniques that he could mix these flames with. The base would be this new Azure Flames technique while things like his immortal grade cultivation method would be mixed to heighten the grade of this new manual he was making. 

‘Creating new technique, please wait a moment…’

“Why aren’t you fighting back?”

Long Fengge was at a loss for words as he continued to battle Zhang Dong that just dodged all of his attacks. He hoped to show off his improvements but instead, he was hitting nothing but air.

“Enough of this!”

Finally, he jumped back and the aura around him changed dramatically. The people that were watching gasped out loudly as they noticed that the young lord would be performing an attack that was only taught to the innermost clan members.

“Could that be the Heavenly Azure Palm of Eradication? Will the formation be able to last?”

The people that were here started to slowly inch away from the arena that the two masters were fighting with. Long Fengge was on one side and was already condensing his blue flames into his fist and it didn’t seem like he would be stopping. His older brother and sister didn’t seem to be doing anything to stop their younger brother.

“Heavenly Azure Palm of Eradication? How about I return the favor to you, my nephew?”

“What are you babbling about? Did you go crazy from fright?”

Fengge called out while also seeing Zhang Dong take out the same fighting stance as he did. The others were also confused as it seemed that the man was trying to produce the same technique but to their surprise, there were no blue flames that they were used to.

“Golden flames? What is that?”

They were all confused as instead of the divine azure flames Zhang Dong was manifesting something different. The flames turned into a bright golden hue and continued to move towards his fist.

“Get ready! Celestial Holy Palm of Obliteration!”

Zhang Dong shouted out the name of the attack that he totally didn’t just come up with to mock his opponent. The whole area went bright and a massive boom reverberated through the whole large training ground. The blast caused many backup formations to be brought up to shield the core formation juniors in the area.

People shouted in fright and the nascent soul bodyguards that were standing next to the young masters had to get involved. The exchange only took a moment but after the light subsided the winner of the exchange appeared before them.

Zhang Dong stood in the middle of the stage with his fist raised. Flames of a golden coloring were surrounding it while his opponent was nowhere to be seen.

“Ah, you must apologize to this uncle of yours… I might have used too much spiritual energy…”

Then everyone noticed poor Long Fengge or at least his bottom half. The young man’s clothes had been shredded during the exchange and his upper body was buried underground in a crater. Everyone had a clear view of his pale posterior that was now reflecting the golden light that Zhang Dong was giving out.

“Haha, well then, who will face this uncle next?”

Zhang Chuckled while looking up to the two remaining youths.
