Absolute Great Teacher

Chapter 117: To Be Ranked First

“Host has discovered the essence of the spirit gathering rune. As for the mastery degree of this spirit rune, if it’s upgraded again and reaches the ancestor realm, you will be rewarded with 1 black iron treasure chest. Please continue to work hard and be promoted to ancestor-level soon.”

The content that the system had said scared Sun Mo.

“What did you say? Say it again!” Sun Mo pricked up his ears and listened attentively. That was right, the system had indeed mentioned ancestor level-to-be.

What did this phrase mean? It meant that Sun Mo was just another step away from becoming an ancestor-level grandmaster!

“You’re not joking with me are you?”

Sun Mo’s expression was a little unbelievable.

What was an ancestor-level grandmaster?

It was someone who had extraordinary accomplishments in a certain field and possessed the qualification to set up a sect. There were merely 2 or 3 people who were on par with this status.

“The system will never joke!”

After the system spoke, it paused for a moment before adding, “It’s named as ancestor-level grandmaster because one has reached the peak of a certain field and almost no one is able to compete with them.”

“What you mean is, no one can compete against me or my Spirit Gathering Rune Drawing Technique now?” Sun Mo laughed at himself.

“There’s still a gap between you and an ancestor-level grandmaster. However, your ranking now has been upgraded. Following this, you need to keep drawing spirit gathering rune to reach the ancestor-level realm.”

The system explained.

“Why?”

Sun Mo didn’t understand. Until now, he had only drawn ten over spirit gathering runes in total, did this already allow him to rise to an ancestor-level to-be?

“Because you’ve thoroughly understood the essence of spirit runes, your proficiency index has gotten an upgrade.”

The system was very patient and incarnated as a caring big sister again. “This is just like how students solve academic problems. They only do it blindly without trying to understand the theory. Even if they were to do 100 problems, if they met a similar problem in the future, they would still have to solve it from step 1. Only a few students would conclude conscientiously and find the law of behavior behind the problems. Once they found the method, they could solve any type of problem easily.”

“Do you mean that now I understand why 1+1 equals 2?”

After the reflection earlier, Sun Mo had indeed understood the essence behind spirit gathering runes.

In order to draw a spirit gathering rune successfully, the most important thing was to constitute a spirit qi circulation. There were 2 steps to the key of this circulation.

The first step was to have a core that gathered the spirit qi. The second step was to construct a spirit rune that possessed an amplification effect to increase the gathering ability of this spirit rune core.

Sun Mo had completely broken down the spirit gathering rune to understand the impact of every strand of spirit line. Now, he knew which strands were important and which weren’t.

The primary structure of the spirit rune core couldn’t be touched. He had to avoid the vascular system of the leaf to avoid the influx of spirit qi that would cause some disturbances.

However, the assisting structure of the spirit rune core could be touched. In fact, it could be connected with the vascular system of the leaf to build the circulation of spirit qi.
