After accepting the narcissist master, Conner directly took Leroy to a mountain courtyard which was around fifty miles in diameter and filled with dense Qi and lavish scenery.nove(l)bi(n.)com
"This is your personal courtyard from now on." Conner coolly stated, "Here are your resources for this month. I'm also giving you a high-grade-7 bow, Star Plucker, which I used when I was about your age, and it has followed me for hundreds of years before I acquired my current grade-8 bow, Death Bringer. It's my gift to you as my disciple, so you need to treat it well.
"I've also left my personal cultivation method and first three levels of Death Striker Archery Art's Jade Scrolls, which you need to learn from now on to refine your archery.
"The Death Striker Archery Art is my clan's legacy art, and it has six levels. Just mastering the first three levels will take you many years, and at that time, you'll be around the intermediate stage of the Law Awareness Realm.
"Once you master it to a satisfactory level, I'll give you the remaining three levels. But make sure you won't leak this art, or I'll blame you; this is our lineage's core archery art, and many people want it.
"Let's go. I'll show you what the first three levels of Death Archery Striker Art could do and the satisfactory level you need to reach." Conner handed Leroy a white storage ring.
Leroy appeared excited and respectful as he received it, "Thank you, master. I'll never let you down even if it's cost me my life!"
"Good." Conner smiled very pleased with his new disciple's earnest attitude, or he was just pleased about being worshiped by Leroy; no one knows.
Conner then led Leroy to an open field behind the courtyard, it was the training field.
Ace was very curious about Conner's archery as he was the best archer in the Sky Heart Plains, and Ace had never learned archery from anyone before. Everything he knows was self-taught through the memories of many cultivators.
Archery wasn't like Swordplay since it required more discipline and perception. Furthermore, Ace never came in contact with the intent of archery since no one has reached that level in the United mainland, and there were no records of it. Just with this, one could imagine how hard the true archery was.
Conner's bloodline also played a part in his attainment of archery as it was very suitable for him. Despite Leroy's identity as a human, he was still willing to take him under his wing because the archery geniuses were just so rare. Even his own clansmen can't reach his standards despite having the same bloodline, so it wasn't a question of bloodline but talent.
But now, after hearing about the orbit intent and its mystic abilities, it was like the veil had been torn off in front of his eyes. He finally understood that his knowledge was still limited when it came to laws, and just comprehending them was not enough.
He wanted to confirm his conjecture as he respectfully asked with the true attitude of a learner, "Master, these mystic abilities, I've heard when someone reached a profound level of an element law they can shape-shift into the element, does this also count as a mystic ability?"
Conner seemed surprised, and a hint of appreciation flashed past his eyes as he was happy about this deep question, which meant Leroy understood his explanation.
"Yes, the ability to turn into an element is also the first mystic ability of an element law; it's called the Element Divergence, which grants the user the nature of the element. The last lightning beast you killed was using Lightning Divergence, which turned it into a lightning bolt and gave it nature.
"It seemed your law comprehension is not too bad. But element laws and weapons are vastly different. Each weapon has its own unique nature, so it may be easy to comprehend the weapon's intent.
"Even merging the element law and weapon law together is easily before of the weapon intent blank nature. But to understand the mystic abilities of a weapon is ten times different from element laws. The Heaven is fair; it makes the weapon laws easy to understand, but it made the mystic abilities harder to comprehend." Conner sighed with a hint of indignation as if he wasn't happy.
Ace took a deep breath as he finally understood the difference between the inheritance of Sky Heart Plains and the United Mainland. His eyes were truly open today, and he finally understood the true terror of a Law Comprehension Realm powerhouse.
Although he had accepted Conner as his master for ulterior motives and didn't really think of him as his master, now he felt respect towards this old man who was willing to teach him this priceless knowledge or who knows how long it would've taken for him to acquire it on his.
Even though he never gets the chance to use the soul probe on a law comprehension realm expert, he didn't dare to even if he had because these powerhouses have high attainment in-laws so that they might see through it, especially experts like Conner with extremely high soul perception.
Still, he was grateful for Conner and bowed from his heart, "Thank you for clearly my doubts, master!"
Conner felt slightly different from Leroy's tone, which he can't put his finger on at this moment.
But he still feels gratified and warmth in his heart, 'Having a disciple is really not a bad feeling!'
