《Sword Immortal's Rebirth》Chapter 63: Teaching (3)
Advertisement
“Ehhh… Elder brother, I fell asleep after I got exhausted. Does that mean that I failed?! Elder brother, I want to learn martial arts! Please don’t stop teaching, I swear I won’t faint next time!” The moment Tianxin woke up, she immediately began to plead forgiveness for her supposed failure.
“Don’t worry, you triumphantly succeeded. You actually kept continuously battling for a week. That is more than any child new to martial arts should be capable of.” Within Heifeng Jiansui’s words, a strong praise could be noted.
“Yay~! Since I succeeded, elder brother will teach me martial arts!” The little loli immediately began dancing.
“Hey, do you remember what happened after you fainted?” Heifeng Jiansui asked her.
“No, I simply fell asleep… didn’t I?” The little girl panicked as she thought about it.
“Here, I recorded what happened after you fainted.” Saying this, Heifeng Jiansui brought out a jadeslip and flicked it at her forehead. The memories that he recorded of her awakening filled her mind.
Even though Heifeng Jiansui did not relieve the memories beside her, he could still sense the awe, pride and happiness from her eyes. She caused the sun to shine, the moon to blush and the stars to shimmer, all for herself. Which girl wouldn’t enjoy this?
After the memories were fully transmitted, the jadeslip fell off her forehead and returned to his hand. Heifeng Jiansui asked her, “So how was it, watching your bloodline heritage awakening?”
“It was amazing! First my nose opened up and I took my first breath! It was like I could smell for the first time: the smell of everything burning around me was overwhelming…
After that, all those letters appeared, turning into words and then they entered my mind! White Phoenix Seven Purifications… It is a huge amount of memories describing a single technique! If it were written down it would take several thousand pages and if it were put into a jade-slip, it would take several of them to note it correctly!

Then, the sun sent white fire, the moon sent white ice and the stars sent white light down all to guard me… It was as if the world quieted down, and the three forces came down to transform me… It was as if I was reborn, and even though I look the same everything changed…” It was the first time the little loli was saying so much, and Heifeng Jiansui realized that perhaps even her mental defects had been cured.
Just then the little girl remembered something and excitedly said, “Elder brother, remember when we first trained and you split the sky to show the meteors and stars, saying that when I can do that, I have learnt some martial arts? Well, I called the sun, moon and the stars down! Doesn’t that mean that I have more amazing martial arts than you?”
Heifeng Jiansui made a dejected expression and said, “Ah, you surpassed me in a week. Now, you don’t need a weak teacher like me and can learn from a stronger person. When your father comes home, ask him to take you to a stronger teacher.”
“Hey, hey, I was simply joking! I didn’t call the sun, moon and stars down; they simply shined some light because they felt like it! Teach me, teach me!” Seeing the panic-stricken teary loli, Heifeng Jiansui suppressed the urge to laugh and continued.
“Well since you are so strong, I brought a strong martial art for you as well! Stellar Purification Staff, it calls breath to purify the essence, qi and spirit, converges the power of fire and ice to support light as the core and can call upon the might of the sun, the moon and the stars!” Heifeng Jiansui passed a scripture to the loli.
“Wah, it sure sounds amazing… Too bad I can’t read this…” The little loli looked pitifully at Jiansui. It was as if some candy was given to her, but she couldn’t unwrap it!

“You… can’t read…” Just then, Heifeng Jiansui remembered that this loli was a retard for a long time… Of course, she wouldn’t have been taught reading.
“Sigh… I suppose I have to teach you first…” Heifeng Jiansui knew that he would teach martial arts, but he didn’t imagine teaching reading and writing to this dumb loli!
+++
Teaching the characters, including reading, writing and speaking them, took a day. Teaching proper pronunciation and grammar rules, both for speaking and writing, took three days. Teaching reading and writing words, sentences and paragraphs took five days.
All this while, he read quite a few historical accounts to her. In the million years that had passed, almost all notable events were narrated by him to the little girl. The first human savages on the desolate world after the beginning of the new era, the surviving human race from the previous era who hid in the 9 Supreme Worlds searching the desolate worlds, the research of the new cultivation system and its dissemination, the establishment of the Nineyuan Sect and the recolonization of the Great Worlds…
Basic geography and political states of the surrounding Great Worlds was also told to her.
“A Stellar Circuit is a similar to a constellation, with a number of Great Worlds linked together by them. Via the minor worlds and mystic realms connecting them, it is possible to travel through them. The Northdance Stellar Circuit which our Black Phoenix World belongs to is connected to your White Phoenix Great World, Divine Dragon Great World and Mortal Martial Great World. Now, tell me the races that populate these worlds and their rulers?” Heifeng Jiansui asked with a teasing expression on his face.
“All these worlds are mostly occupied by humans, other than the Divine Dragon Great World controlled by lizards and their subordinate monster beasts. Black Phoenix Great World, White Phoenix Great World and Divine Dragon Great World are ruled by Black Phoenixes, White Phoenixes and Divine Dragons respectively. How is that?” The loli’s answer came almost immediately.
“Good to see you aren’t dumb!” Saying this, Heifeng Jiansui stroked the little girls head.
To say the truth, this was a laughably easy question. Humans and monsters populated the world. True divine beasts flew through the stars, not inhabiting human land. Only their descendents with human bloodlines settled down in Great World. The Divine Dragon Great World was the only Great World solely populated by monsters!
“Okay, now tell me the political relations between these four worlds.” Heifeng Jiansui seriously asked the girl once more.
“The Black Phoenix Great World and White Phoenix Great World are allies due to their shared Phoenix Ancestry. The Divine Dragon Great World opposes these two Great Worlds due to this very reason. As for the Mortal Martial Great World, it is neutral, but suppresses the monstrous beasts populating Divine Dragon Great World.” The loli answered seriously as well.
“Good answer! It seems that you have a good grasp of the language… At least, this much is enough to begin your training. Now, let us begin reading the Stellar Purification Staff!” With great enthusiasm, the little girl and the tall boy began reading the technique manual.
+++
After this, the little girl memorized the technique manual for the Stellar Purification Staff. For now, she only learnt the foundation arts. The technique manual contained the 1st Layer practicable after breakthrough to Body Transformation, but she was merely a mortal, so it didn’t need teaching. Heifeng Jiansui demonstrated the Stellar Purification Staff especially for her, and she learnt quickly. Nearly two weeks passed as he taught her, and the month came to an end.
It was soon time for the little girl to go home.

Entangled Fates Book 1 - Quantum Beginnings
“By far, the greatest danger of Artificial Intelligence is that people conclude too early that they understand it.” —Eliezer Yudkowsky Hey all, we're moving over to book 2. This content is in a state of transition. The book is now availble on Amazon (includes extra chapters): https://www.royalroad.com/amazon/B07W1534R8 Artificial intelligence was nearly mankind’s last invention. AI took off like a rocket, then when it racked up an impressive death toll, it crashed before it could blossom and took most high-tech industries with it. Resistance and fears became deep-set. Two decades after the infamous Rev. 4.6 incidents, humanity hasn’t quit dreaming of the wealth and power that could be at their fingertips. A new generation of mega-corporations rose from the ashes. When one melds a quantum computer to a barely functional mental patient as a PR move, there are those who seek to profit, those who want to destroy it, and Alex. Alex Sage is a typical college student trying to keep up his grades and maybe find a meaningful connection with the fairer sex. Then, an automated semi crashes into his home, killing his family and turning his head into a pin cushion in the process. Alex awakens to find most of his memories gone and an illegal AI hidden in his brain implant. Now the pet project of a tech billionaire and heavily in debt, Alex struggles to stay valuable enough to be kept online. Still grappling with the repercussions of his injuries, and threats from a dangerous anti-augmentation political movement, there are no easy answers and threats loom around every corner. Alex must use whatever resources he can to escape from under the thumb of a ruthless corporation, while keeping those he comes to love safe. Chapters will stay up on RRL until Aug 10. It'll go up on Kindle Unlimited after that. How do you get those extra chapters I didn't have planned for RR? If you want them, they'll be in the published book. Book 2 will still make sense without them - I made sure of that. But... isn't $3 a lot for extra chapters? Think of it as tipping me for a good job and you'd also be getting my eternal thanks. If you enjoyed it so much that the idea of missing out a few chapters haunts you, I did my job as an author and made an engaging story. What's in those extra chapters? Resolving a few issues, set up for the cybernetic revolution, a rather intense sex scene with a new partner, revelations of who's really pulling strings, and a bit of set up for book 2. Complaints that people missed out on it when it was published here won't help (sorry!). I posted this for the folks who helped me shape the book, which is you all! (Again, yay!) But... Why! Why not keep it all on RR forever? My editor likes being paid for one. For two, I'd like the ability to get broader readership. If I break even on editor costs, I'll be incredibly happy. What about book 2? Drafts for Book 2 will go up around Sept 10. My draft of Book 2 is done, and it will be handed to the editor once Book 1 is published. Feedback has been even more positive. Beta readers devoured it and wanted more. I'll add a link to Book 2 once it's up on RR. I'm more or less, using you all for Beta Readers, so you get it before it's "canon" and edited. I invite active and meaningful feedback during this process. In return, you get early access to chapters. That does mean that the book content or plot might be adjusted before it gets published as I refine it. Sex Y/N? Yes. I heard the feedback, 90% wanted it explicit. You all will get the "full" experience. Will I dump all of book 2 here? Honestly, I'm not sure yet. At a minimum, it'll be up to the 75% mark as we collect feedback, much like what I did with book 1. It really depends on how good the feedback is and how nice people are. Lots of support + meaningful feedback to make it better = higher likelihood you get all the book. Will be it up here indefinitely? No, it'll probably go up on KU at some point, but I'll make sure there's enough time for a large readership to grab it here. Then we move to book 3 which already is around 60K words already. What about other adventures in the same universe/characters? Yep. Absolutely. Nothing ready to share yet though. I plan to keep those side chapters and more slice of life stories as RR exclusive. Since I'm carving this off in book-sized segments, I'll have to figure out where those disconnected story arcs belong. I'm open to suggestions.
