Chapter 1027: Chapter 1014: Irresistible Temptation
“Just endure a little longer, the process may be painful, but the outco will surely be good.” Muria said, comforting the girl who was showing a pained expression on her face.
At this ti, the girl was in so much pain that she could no longer speak, her body constantly undergoing an extraordinarily intense transformation because she was trying to compress the decades it took for an ordinary person to beco a Martial Artist into a very short period.
If one wants to achieve success without effort and ascend to great heights at once, one must pay a price that ordinary people can hardly bear. There are never such things as pies falling from the sky; the input and the output are always relative.
As Daisy gradually assimilated the Martial Arts Dharma Appearance Crystal that Muria had given her, her skin slowly turned reddish, just like a cooked shrimp, and gradually, her transformation reached a certain critical point, and then a pale white Martial Dao Aura appeared on her body.
“Thump!” After the pure white Martial Dao Aura burned on her body for a full ten minutes, the girl fell to the ground, her body drained and limp.
“How do you feel?”
“I feel stronger than I ever have before, completely different from the strength of a Star Armor Master!” Daisy tested by clenching her fists, a completely different feeling surged in her heart,
“Of course it’s different, this is the power that truly belongs to you, not sothing that is put into others’ hands once the armor is removed,” Muria said with a smile.
The combat power of a Star Armor Master completely depends on the Star Armor. If it is close-combat cold Weapon Star Armor, it’s acceptable, but if it includes firearms mixed with technology, then a Star Armor Master can only depend on the group.
Muria did not particularly like this fact, not because depending on the group and possessing great power was bad, but because, as a being with both Titan and Golden Dragon lineage, Muria preferred relying on his own abilities, rooted in his lineage.
“Alright, wait for two days, I will tailor a Martial Arts Classics for you. Then, you will cultivate according to the classics I give you!”
“Thank you, brother, I really appreciate it!” Daisy, who had regained so strength, stood up from the ground and bowed deeply to Muria, “You used the power of Dharma Appearance to give
the possibility of cultivating martial arts, but does this harm your power in any way?”
“It’s a trivial damage, really.” Muria raised his eyebrows, replying with a hint of profundity.
“Brother, you really are…” Hearing Muria’s words, Daisy was so touched that it was beyond asure.
“Alright, that’s enough for now. Go back and sleep!” Seeing Daisy, who seed about to cry from being moved, Muria waved his hand expressionlessly; the girl might have misunderstood sothing, but Muria had no intention of clarifying it.
“Brother used his strength to give
the opportunity to cultivate martial arts; I must cultivate well. I cannot let down the efforts and expectations of my brother.” After leaving Muria’s room, Daisy clenched her fists, firmly resolved.
“This little one seems to think I paid a trendous price, but a misunderstanding is just as well.”
With a perceptive insight into everything around him, Muria noticed Daisy’s gestures after she left his room and burst into laughter.
…
“I’ve just received the news, one of our clan’s core mbers, Daisy Douglas, has beco a Martial Artist.”
Still in the eting room, the clan leader massaged his temples for what seed like the umpteenth ti due to issues caused by Muria, feeling a bit of a headache as he spoke, foreseeing that announcing this news would definitely stir up quite a stir in the clan.
“Daisy? If I rember correctly, isn’t she Jelos’ sister? Although they are not biologically siblings, they both share the sa bloodline, making her also possess a great Martial Arts Talent. Becoming a Martial Artist isn’t really sothing too astonishing.”
An elder raised his head sowhat puzzledly, feeling that such news did not need to be ntioned here. Daisy’s Star talent was indeed powerful and very important to the clan, but that was only once she had fully grown.
“No, perhaps Daisy indeed possesses a Martial Arts Talent not inferior to her brother’s, but she has never engaged in any martial arts cultivation before. She simply entered her brother Jelos’ room one night after he successfully advanced to beco a Martial Supre, and when she ca out, she had beco a Martial Artist.”
“What is this nonsense?” Upon hearing the clan leader’s poor description, many elders in the eting room suddenly wore strange expressions on their faces.
Despite being among the top-tier families in the federation where bizarre things sotis occur, normally these matters aren’t discussed publicly.
“What are you thinking?” Seeing the expressions of these elders, the Douglas clan leader, sowhat annoyed, slamd his fist on the table.
“What I an is, Daisy beca a formal Martial Artist in less than one night with the help of her brother Jelos, without any foundation in the cultivation of martial arts!”
“Are you pulling our leg?” A white-haired elder stood up sowhat agitatedly, knowing full well what the clan leader’s words ant.
“It has been confird,” the clan leader nodded. “Although I do not know what thod Jelos used, after that night, Daisy indeed beca a Martial Artist.”
“Martial Artist…” Having received the definite news, so white-haired elders fell silent, exchanging glances, their eyes flickering with an indistinct luster,
Martial Artists possess an advantage that Star Armor Masters cannot compare with, naly, lifespan. Every Martial Artist can perfectly control their own body, and barring any accidents, Martial Artists possess lifespans far surpassing ordinary humans.
However, unfortunately, as an extraordinary profession that honors martial prowess above all, Martial Artists rarely et a good end, hardly any of them live to the limit of their potential lifespans.
“Put away your scheming thoughts, do not assu I am unaware of what you are thinking. This news is not yet confird, and even if Jelos possesses the ability to turn an ordinary person into a Martial Artist overnight, I will not allow him to use it recklessly.
The matter is such that Jelos would very likely have to pay a heavy price. And as Jelos is currently the most likely candidate to beco Martial Supre, anyone who dares interfere with this process is an enemy of the clan. Do not bla
for not being polite then.”
“Ahem, clan leader, we can still distinguish the importance and urgency of matters, living to this ripe old age, what have we not seen?”
“So much the better.”
“However, clan leader, I think it’s also necessary for the clan to inquire Jelos about this aspect, and perhaps also about the Martial Arts Dharma Aspect, as I’ve heard each Martial Artist’s Dharma Appearance possesses unique characteristics.
Could the ability to instantly elevate an ordinary person to a Martial Artist also be one of the attributes of his Martial Arts Dharma Aspect?”
…
“Young Master Jelos, I wonder if you are free at the mont? It might take up so of your ti.”
After turning Daisy into a Formal Martial Artist, Muria received a communication from the clan.
“I’m free, go ahead and ask whatever you want!”
“Young Master Jelos, the clan wants to know if you possess the ability to directly turn an ordinary person into a Martial Artist?”
“Indeed,” Muria directly admitted, this was indeed what he had deliberately orchestrated.
“Then, for you, what is the cost of turning an ordinary person into a Martial Artist? Would there be any permanent damage to you?” the old man on the screen asked with a hopeful look.
“As for the cost, it would cause a part of my Martial Arts Dharma Aspect to be missing, but as for permanent damage, there is none,” Muria ambiguously replied.
“What if the clan wishes to spend so resources so that you can turn so people who have not practiced martial arts into Martial Artists, would you be willing?”
The old man, who should have ended the communication after concluding the conversation, didn’t stop but asked with a flickering gaze.
“That would depend on what kind of resources the clan is willing to offer,” Muria replied, unfazed. After being promoted to Martial Supre, he needed more resources to progress further. Now backed by a Great family, he naturally had to make good use of it—no, not just use it, but ensure mutual benefit.
“I understand,” the elder communicating with Muria nodded, then shut off the communicator.
“Longevity along with the temptation of power, I wonder how many within the clan could resist?”
Looking at the communicator that had turned to a black screen, the corners of Muria’s mouth slightly curled up. Being able to condense the seeds of Martial Dao, letting a person who had lost all hope in martial arts to begin cultivating again, was an effect he had deliberately guided to form.
It didn’t matter if it was despicable because this was a transparent sche. Muria would clearly state all the benefits and costs of accepting his Martial Dao Seeds, leaving the decision entirely up to the other party; he would never deceive or coerce anyone.
As for the cost of condensing a Martial Dao Seed? There was one, just as he had ntioned, there would be so damage to his Dharma Appearance.
As for the extent of the damage, it was about equivalent to plucking a hair from soone’s body, which was painful at the mont of “plucking”, but otherwise, there was hardly any sensation.
Its cost was ridiculously low, but its effectiveness was extraordinary; Muria very well might control the entire Douglas clan based on this, and then influence the entire Zijing Federation, securing a third of the human voice in this world. Of course, this was his ultimate long-term goal, only a possibility as of now.
