High-Martial World: System Arrives 30 Years Late-Chapter 393 - 315: The Creator’s Methods, Questioning Oneself, Su Mu’s Answer!

Chapter 393: Chapter 315: The Creator’s Methods, Questioning Oneself, Su Mu’s Answer!

Answer a question?

It’s like asking questions to an answer. The purple phantom clearly saw the situation Su Mu was facing.

Yet, this was different from the purple phantom’s original intention, as Su Mu hadn’t reached his expectations, so his initial attitude was somewhat indifferent.

This way, it wouldn’t be appropriate to lend a hand directly.

Everything needed to be raised by Su Mu himself.

At this moment, the purple phantom’s tone became gentle, with a hint of a smile, and Su Mu once again saw the shadows of the previous two phantoms in this figure.

Thus, Su Mu instantly understood, clasped his hands in respect, and asked humbly.

"Senior, I face a dilemma at present. I wish to know what those black smokes truly are and how can I completely eradicate them?"

Upon hearing this, the purple phantom laughed and shook his head.

"That’s two questions."

Su Mu was taken aback, realizing that he had unwittingly asked two questions.

For a moment, he hesitated.

Should he ask about the former?

Or the latter?

At first glance, the latter seemed more practical because Su Mu came to solve this problem.

But upon calm reflection.

This involved choosing the present or the future.

Though the Book of Destiny revealed that Su Mu’s final resting place was the Sword Abyss, seemingly unrelated to the black smoke, Su Mu still firmly believed he would inevitably have connections with the black smoke later on.

Even ordinary people sometimes possess certain dangerous foresight, let alone powerful martial artists.

Su Mu never doubted his premonitions.

This black smoke was like a thousand-foot cliff right before him, and he would eventually approach the edge of the cliff, a careless step leading into the abyss.

Sooner or later.

He could only face it head-on.

Like a destined enemy from the unknown.

Moreover...

The fate in the Book of Destiny contained certain deviations. After all, destiny is a nebulous and unpredictable thing, much like the ever-changing form of the Book of Destiny itself, unpredictable.

But if he opts for the future...

He could encounter an extremely dire predicament—understanding the essence of the black smoke without being able to deal with it, ultimately unable to solve the problem.

In that regard, seeking a present solution seems more practical.

So, which should he choose?

Seeing Su Mu hesitating, the purple phantom waved, separating a purple spark, which then formed a purple metal coin.

"Let this coin decide, heads for the former, tails for the latter."

The coin landed in Su Mu’s hand, slightly heavy.

Su Mu gazed at the coin in his hand, eyes glinting, feeling that it wasn’t taken from a space ring, as there were no spatial fluctuations. It was created out of thin air by the purple phantom.

Creation from thin air...

This is nearly the ability of a creator!

This technique far exceeded Su Mu’s imagination. After Martial Saint, martial artists could conjure creations from nothing?!

Su Mu’s breath grew somewhat rapid. The boundless martial arts were indeed captivating and elusive. After a moment of distraction, he eyed the coin in his hand.

The material was unlike anything he had seen on this planet, its density astonishing—such a small coin was over ten thousand pounds.

No explanation was needed from the purple phantom; the moment the coin touched his hand, he understood that the side with the purple shadow design was heads, the side with the fist shadow was tails.

"Alright."

Su Mu quickly discovered the coin could not be infused with Qi and Blood or Spiritual Power, meaning it couldn’t be controlled using them to determine heads or tails.

However, even if it could be manipulated, attempting sleight in front of the purple phantom would be courting death.

Indeed faster than angering a Martial Saint...

Su Mu immediately tossed the coin into the air. With just a light throw, the ten thousand pound coin shot up to the sky, slowly descending after a thousand meters.

Su Mu was stunned. He hadn’t applied much force just now...

The flipping coin instantly made the situation intriguing.

The coin in the air was akin to the unpredictable fate, constantly changing.

Eventually, it landed back in Su Mu’s hand, revealing the fist shadow tails.

"Now I am giving you two solutions. The first one is simple, I can directly intervene and eradicate it for you."

Upon hearing the first response, Su Mu was stunned. The purple shadow spoke so casually, and the black smoke, which seemed extremely troublesome to him, was insignificant in the eyes of the purple shadow.

"Senior, what is the other method?"

"The second method is introspection. Since spiritual power cannot eliminate it, you can try a different path. Besides spiritual power, what else do you have?"

Upon hearing the second answer, Su Mu trembled all over as if the clouds had suddenly cleared, and his eyes brightened slightly.

At this moment.

The purple shadow flickered, and a voice sounded.

"Now, leave."

The next moment.

The golden light pillar suddenly exploded with brilliance, the previously absent gravity reappeared instantly, and it was even more terrifying.

The sudden gravity caused Su Mu to groan involuntarily.

Then...

Su Mu’s eyes shone even brighter, a thought appeared that was unprecedented, more insane than any previous thought, even exceedingly mad. He suddenly became enlightened.

Feeling the added, multiplied gravity.

Su Mu once again felt every inch of flesh and every cell in his body frantically operating, frenziedly devouring the energy and Qi and Blood between heaven and earth.

And then he recalled the second method mentioned by the purple shadow.

What else does he have besides spiritual power?

Su Mu has the flesh refined through the Fixed Star Body Refining Technique, the sword momentum that has touched the peak, the Secret of Power, the Six Paths Reincarnation Fist, and the Wind Rule, the Water and Fire...

Only the answer is clear now, the purple shadow has already provided such an obvious hint, isn’t the multiplied gravity just reminding himself...

Can you try using the flesh?

The purple shadow finally left him with an excellent cultivation place.

The Fixed Star Body Refining Technique is continuously transformed through devouring energy, that terrifying technique that reeks of evil can devour spiritual power to strengthen itself, but that’s just spiritual power.

And undeniably, the black smoke contains immense energy.

So can the flesh devour the black smoke, turning it into energy and nutrients for the flesh’s transformation!

"It turns out the solution is so simple... I just never thought of it."

Thinking of this, Su Mu’s whole body trembled with excitement, he seemed to see an infinite treasure trove of energy!

Immediately, he began operating the Fixed Star Body Refining Technique, instantly feeling the devouring speed of each cell multiply tenfold, dozens of times.

The spiritual qi in the air was instantly inhaled into the lungs, and the surroundings turned into a vacuum area. This was not enough, then the cells began seeking stronger energy sources, starting to devour the golden sea of blood.

The golden Qi Blood Flood Dragon began to be continuously extracted for energy.

"It should work!"

As a martial artist progresses in strength, the Martial Arts Grandmaster can achieve photographic memory, but at this moment, Su Mu was still repeatedly recalling that half of the "Fixed Star Body Refining Technique" in his mind.

Dozens of times later, confirming no detail was wrong, he decided to personally test it.

Immediately, under the gravity over a hundredfold, Su Mu expelled his distractions and adopted the cultivation posture of the Fixed Star Body Refining Technique. As he took up the posture, the speed of cells devouring energy increased exponentially again!

Hiss------

In such gravity, the efficiency of cultivating the Fixed Star Body Refining Technique was incredibly astonishing, Su Mu could feel unprecedented comfort right now. Compared to the usual subtle electric currents a martial artist experiences during cultivation, which can cause slight numbness all over.

This moment.

The intense electric current felt like being hit directly by thunder, rampaging through Su Mu’s limbs and myriad veins.

"Refreshing!"

Then let it begin.

-----------------

(PS: The word count here is not counted for billing)

First, the author apologizes for the updates over the past few days, and after writing to this point, the author suddenly sorted out the subsequent outline and plot, which has been stalled in writing these days.

In my heart, Su Mu gained some soul after killing the Sima Family, the character came alive, but after coming to life, it didn’t seem as easy to write.

But suddenly today, inspiration struck, perhaps the ’Book of Destiny’ also provided me with inspiration, I saw a clearer future for Su Mu.

A million words is a barrier for a book, Su Mu will cross it, he will provide the answer!

Next, the daily update of two Chapters will be resumed, or if the plot flows smoothly, Chapters may be merged, but the word count will not be reduced, and the update time will not be as late.

The second volume is titled The Path of the Grandmaster, which refers to Su Mu embarking on his unique path of the grandmaster, initially thinking the second volume would end soon.

Ultimately, the author realized there’s still a lot to write in this volume, the pace will be accelerated in the future, and the Celestial Cloud Mountain plot is actually not over yet, no spoilers here.

Sometimes the author feels writing the outline is more exciting than the daily updates, just thinking about it feels thrilling, it’s like the previous burst-writing state is back again.
