Chapter 157: A Conversation Between Brothers

Di Shitian looked at Huaimie and said:

"Huaimie, I admire you very much and wish to take you as my disciple. I wonder if you are willing to take me as your master?"

Huaimie was shocked. He had not expected that Di Shitian would actually take him as a disciple; he wondered what kind of medicine was hidden in his gourd.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Huaimie flopped onto the ground and kowtowed three times, answering in fear and trepidation:

"Master is above, disciple Huaimie greets Master."

Now trapped in a situation where he could neither advance nor retreat, Huaimie knew that if he did not agree to Di Shitian, he would likely not live to see tomorrow's sun.

Since that was the case, he spoke up and agreed, and this way he could also follow Di Shitian to learn some high-level martial arts.

Driven by doubt and ambition, Huaimie became Di Shitian's second disciple.

Seeing that Huaimie had agreed to him, Di Shitian first gave the Sha Po Lang Secret Manual to Huaimie.

The Sha Po Lang Secret Manual was the supplementary Cultivation Method for the Greedy Wolf and Heavenly Blade.

Without Sha Po Lang, the Greedy Wolf and Heavenly Blade could not exert their maximum power at all.

Back then, Jue Wushen had obtained Sha Po Lang by a stroke of luck, and he had even created the killing move, Killing Fist, based on Sha Po Lang and the Fist Technique of the Fist Sect.

After Pojun obtained the Greedy Wolf and Heavenly Blade, he felt that he could never exert their power.

So this was also the reason why Pojun had spared no cost back then just to obtain Sha Po Lang from Jue Wushen's hands.

Of course, Di Shitian could not just give Huaimie the Greedy Wolf and Heavenly Blade; now, relying solely on Sha Po Lang, Huaimie would be unable to handle matters for him.

In order to make Huaimie let down his guard, Di Shitian prepared to impart a portion of the Sacred Heart Art to Huaimie.

"Huaimie, do you know what the secret to my immortality is?"

Huaimie shook his head.

Di Shitian laughed loudly:

"I am immortal and possess god-like abilities, all thanks to my god-level martial art—the Sacred Heart Art.

The Sacred Heart Art is a peerless martial art I created by blending the strengths of a hundred schools.

Those who practice the Sacred Heart Art will become immortal, and they will possess the power of a god just like me.

Huaimie, do you want to learn it?"

Huaimie nodded fiercely; for a martial arts fanatic like him, how could he give up such a peerless martial art?

"Hahahaha, good, I will teach you the Sacred Heart Art right now!

This Cultivation Method of mine is never taught to outsiders; so far, I have only taught it to Luo Xian. I hope you will practice diligently and not let me down!"

Shitian spoke to Huaimie word by word, and the Cultivation Method of the Sacred Heart Art entered Huaimie's mind along with Di Shitian's words.

"Huaimie, I have already imparted the Sacred Heart Art to you; I hope you will practice it diligently."

Huaimie kowtowed again and said:

"Understood, this disciple will certainly strictly obey Master's orders.

If Master has nothing else, then I will go down first to practice the Sacred Heart Art."

"No rush, I want to talk to you about Huaikong."

In order to help Huaikong complete the Heart Casting and Pulse Severing, Di Shitian and Huaimie determined a plan after their conversation.

After finalizing the plan, Di Shitian let Huaimie go out.

Meanwhile, inside the Bingshi, Huaikong was rolling around in pain.

Not having finished the Heart Casting and Pulse Severing, he wanted to forcibly practice the Iron Refining Hand.

Huaikong looked at his hands, which were emitting raging flames, feeling a burst of excitement, but what followed was pain like fire burning his heart.

How could Huaikong, who had not completed the Heart Casting and Pulse Severing, withstand the scorching hot True Qi of the Iron Refining Hand?

Huaikong was tortured by the pain in his internal organs and rolled on the ground.

Huaimie, who happened to be passing by Huaikong's room, heard the huge noise coming from inside. Worried that something had happened to Huaikong, he hurriedly pushed open the door and saw Huaikong rolling on the ground in pain.

Huaimie hurriedly helped up the suffering Huaikong and asked:

"Huaikong, Huaikong, what is wrong with you!

Tell your big brother quickly, what is wrong with you!"

Huaikong grabbed Huaimie's hand and answered painfully:

"Big brother, I feel so uncomfortable; I feel like my whole body is about to burn up."

Huaimie saw a water pot nearby, used a claw to suck the water pot over, picked it up, and poured it into Huaikong's mouth.

After drinking a pot of water and receiving the nourishment of the water, Huaikong's pain finally eased.

"Huaikong, what just happened to you? Why were you in such pain?"

Huaimie asked anxiously.

Huaikong shook his head and said:

"I just practiced the Iron Refining Hand, and as a result, I suffered a backlash and was injured."

"What!"

When Huaimie was talking with Di Shitian, Di Shitian had told him about the power of the Iron Refining Hand and the dangers of practicing it improperly.

Huaimie stared at Huaikong and said:

"Huaikong, before you complete the Heart Casting, you are not allowed to practice the Iron Refining Hand again.

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

Di Shitian just told me about the difficulty of practicing the Iron Refining Hand; if you forcibly practice the Iron Refining Hand, you will be doomed forever."

Huaikong smiled disapprovingly:

"Big Brother, if I don't seize the time to cultivate, when will I ever be able to avenge Master?"

Huaimie knew that Huaikong was eager for revenge, but he could not bear for Huaikong to sacrifice everything for it, so he told Huaikong:

"Huaikong, we will avenge Master together.

Di Shitian has already taken me as his disciple; we will soon be able to avenge Master together.

Look, Di Shitian has given me both the Greedy Wolf and Heavenly Blade."

Huaimie drew the blade and sword from behind his back and brandished them in front of Huaikong.

Upon hearing that Huaimie had actually taken Di Shitian as his master, Huaikong, who knew what kind of person Di Shitian was, was just about to speak when Huaimie covered his mouth.

"Huaikong, I know what you want to say, Big Brother knows it all.

That's right, Big Brother's actions are tantamount to asking a tiger for its hide.

But doing this can indeed realize Big Brother's lifelong dream, and it will also allow us two brothers to avenge Master together.

You must trust Big Brother; Big Brother will be fine.

You must also promise Big Brother that before completing Heart Casting and Meridian Severing, you must absolutely not cultivate the Iron Hand technique again.

Big Brother has already lost Master, and I don't want to lose you too; you are Big Brother's only kin left in this world."

Huaimie almost could not help but tell Huaikong about his and Di Shitian's plan, but he remembered Di Shitian's warning:

"The plan must absolutely not be told to Huaikong; if he knows our plan, then he can forget about completing Heart Casting.

Heart Casting requires Huaikong to make his heart erupt when he is in extreme rage, at which point Di Shitian will use Profound Ice True Qi to travel through his Meridian to complete the Meridian Severing."

After experiencing Heart Casting and Meridian Severing, Huaikong would naturally no longer be affected by the heat of the Iron Hand technique, and mastering the Iron Hand technique would then be a matter of course.

Huaikong looked into Huaimie's eyes, and in the end, he nodded and agreed.

"Fine, Big Brother, I promise you, before completing Heart Casting and Meridian Severing, I will not cultivate the Iron Hand technique again.

Let Tie Kuangtu jump around for a few more days."

Seeing that Huaikong had agreed, Huaimie finally smiled.

Afterward, Huaimie stood up and left; he still needed to cultivate the Sacred Heart Art he had just acquired, and in order to reach the pinnacle of the Martial Dao, he had to strive forward.

Furthermore, the plan to help Huaikong also required him to find Wuer and the others to cooperate, so he could not afford to waste a single moment now.
