Berserk God of War

Chapter 1243: Chapter 1243: He’s Just a Liar

Ever since Master Wuji discovered the Lingque Secret Realm decades ago, even though it contains the bloodline of the Golden Cold Divine Sparrow, everyone inside remains only half-aware of the divine sparrow’s meridians.

Yet Sikong Jing claims he can fully comprehend it in a year or two. Is he bragging?

At least Xiao Jia thinks Sikong Jing is just boasting.

Sikong Jing, upon hearing this, pondered slightly.

Suddenly, he smiled and said, ”A year or two is indeed somewhat exaggerated.”

”However, the meridians of the divine sparrow have indeed been imprinted in my body. I feel that the residual consciousness of the divine sparrow seems close to me, so it imprinted all the meridians to me.”

These words were half-true, half-false...

There wasn’t any residual consciousness that found him close; rather, as the Master of Ten Thousand Beasts, he is naturally close to demon beasts, and in that observing moment, he somehow replicated the meridians of the Golden Cold Divine Sparrow into his body.

Of course, this was also because the Golden Cold Divine Sparrow left its meridians openly for people to see.

That made it possible to replicate them; otherwise, it would not have been so simple.

This means Sikong Jing has now copied the meridians of a third peak Emperor Martial Stage demon beast, the first being the Black Prison Devouring Sky Tiger, the second the Double-Horned Demon Tiger, and now the third.

Yet this matter contains the secret of the Master of Ten Thousand Beasts and is too incredible.

So, after calming down completely, Sikong Jing could only say it was the divine sparrow’s residual consciousness that gave it to him. As for comprehending it in a year or two, it is not an exaggeration for Sikong Jing.

Even if he said so, Master Wuji and the others were still stunned, finding it utterly unbelievable.

And just as the three exchanged bewildered glances, Sikong Jing suddenly frowned, and in a hoarse voice asked, ”Master Wuji, I need to immediately retreat for a few days. Is there a quiet room available?”

Previously, when imprinting the Double-Horned Demon Tiger meridians, he experienced pain throughout his body.

Because his body currently can’t bear the strain of imprinting a large number of peak Emperor Martial Stage meridians. It took three days to consolidate back then, and now with the return of pain, he can’t endure it once more.

Sikong Jing must cultivate and consolidate again, continue strengthening his body and meridians.

Thus, he must find a quiet room and retreat for several days to train earnestly.

Upon hearing this, Master Wuji noticed Sikong Jing’s face growing grim and, without further questioning, nodded quickly and said, ”Certainly, Brother Sikong, come with me.”

So without understanding Sikong Jing’s situation, Master Wuji hastily took him to a courtyard in the small village and said, ”This is my courtyard, Young Master. Please retreat in peace here, without worrying about disturbances.”

Sikong Jing nodded in gratitude and quickly entered a room within the courtyard.

Once the door closed, Sikong Jing’s figure vanished completely from the trio’s sight.

After a while, the courtyard gate closed too, with Master Wuji and the others standing outside the courtyard entrance, still at a loss.

Suddenly, Xiao Jia pouted and said, ”Grandpa Wuji, could this Young Master be a big liar? Did he fool you, and was the divine sparrow’s apparition just an illusion technique he performed?”

”Sikong Buwang is just an outsider, how could he possibly be close to Lord Divine Sparrow just by saying so?”

Before Master Wuji could answer, Xiao Jia spoke rapidly like a string of beads, ”And about imprinting Lord Divine Sparrow’s meridians into his body, why can he just imprint all the meridians at will?”

”Even if that’s true, he’s only at the peak of Martial Battle Realm. Imprinting peak Emperor Martial Stage meridians, wouldn’t that cause him to explode?”

Each question left Master Wuji more and more bewildered.

Then he began to calm down gradually, indeed having never heard of anyone directly imprinting demon beast meridians. Even among humans, if a stronger one forcibly opens many meridians for a weaker person, it poses great danger.

If the realm gap is too large, like between Emperor Martial Stage and Martial Battle Stage...

It would genuinely result in the weaker person exploding if a stronger one directly opens Emperor Martial Stage meridians.

”Moreover, Lord Divine Sparrow passed away so many years ago; how can there still be any residual consciousness?”

Xiao Jia kept questioning, ”Plus, he’s rushing into retreat now, certainly to hide something from us.”

”I suspect everything he’s used is an illusion technique, and an extremely terrifying one at that. The divine sparrow’s apparition just now was likely a lure, drawing out a trace of Lord Divine Sparrow’s aura to create it.”

With Xiao Jia’s words, Little Liang’s expression grew solemn as well.

Steadfast as he was, he turned to Master Wuji and said, ”Grandpa Wuji, Xiao Jia has a point... Though I don’t know how you deemed him Young Master, it’s very possible that everything he showed and said was all illusions.”

Master Wuji’s face turned sour, recalling everything about his interaction with Sikong Jing.

Especially Eldest Su’s Qianyuan Soldier Killing Map...

At this moment, he truly suspected whether everything he saw was an illusion, and what if the Qianyuan Soldier Killing Map was fake as well.

But then, he looked at his legs, thinking that the suppression of beast poison couldn’t be fake, right?

However, Master Wuji was inherently suspicious, especially concerning everything about Eldest Su; he must be cautious.

Perhaps the beast poison wasn’t suppressed but Sikong Jing injected some paralyzing potion instead?

If everything was indeed fake, then this Sikong Buwang would be incredibly terrifying. Maybe what Yin Henzi saw before dying, such as Dual Spirit Shadows, was fake too.

Perhaps Sikong Buwang might be something like a Nine-grade Battle Body.

He might deliberately disguise himself as Eldest Su’s grandson-in-law, probing and probing, perhaps carrying an untold plot.

Maybe he aims to eliminate Eldest Su’s remnants in one fell swoop...

The more he thought about it, the more Master Wuji felt icy, recalling the scene of the Golden Cold Divine Sparrow just now, which was indeed improbable to imprint all fingers’ meridians in one moment.

Just when Master Wuji was tangled in chaos... Bang!

The courtyard door suddenly opened, and Sikong Jing appeared inside, full of helplessness. Little Liang and Xiao Jia, their hair nearly standing on end, swiftly assumed a battle-ready stance.

However, Sikong Jing still spoke helplessly, ”Xiao Jia, do you feel a pricking pain in your meridians whenever you circulate True Qi?”

His voice dropped, and Xiao Jia, preparing to fight, was dumbfounded, asking in astonishment, ”How did you know?”

Sikong Jing didn’t answer, continuing, ”You feel the needle-like pricking pain in three spots: the base of your thumb, your left shoulder, and your right lower abdomen.”

Startled, Xiao Jia’s hairs bristled as she retorted, ”You, you, you, how do you know?”

Sikong Jing still didn’t reply but looked at Little Liang beside her, saying, ”Little Liang, you’ve been at the Second Realm of Spirit Movement for three months, and based on your cultivation speed, you should have advanced long ago, right?”

Little Liang opened his mouth, though silent, his eyes revealed the answer.

Indeed, Sikong Jing completely said it correctly.
