I Am Unaware That I Am the Peerless Martial God Chapter 2

“This...”

Luo Lanxue finally managed to steady her graceful figure after stumbling back several paces. Paying no mind to her internal injuries, her eyes were filled with pure astonishment as she stared at the martial arts manual gripped in Yin Luoli’s hands.

“This is Martial Will!”

The realization sent massive waves of shock crashing through Luo Lanxue's heart.

How could this be possible? She had actually encountered Martial Will within the pages of a commoner's picture book. Were it not for the sharp pain of her injuries serving as a constant reminder, she would have convinced herself she was trapped in a dream.

Martial Will.

That was a thing of legends.

Forget about her; even her master, a formidable Martial Spirit powerhouse, was unable to grasp the essence of Martial Will. Rumor had it that only those who had reached the Martial Emperor level could begin to perceive its existence.

The only reason she recognized it was because her master, Qingshan Laozu, had allowed her to experience a faint trace of Martial Will during a Sect legacy transmission. However, when compared to the overwhelming force contained in this book, that tiny trace was like the dim glow of a firefly—hardly worth mentioning.

"Sister, what happened to you?" Yin Luoli asked with deep anxiety, watching Luo Lanxue cough up blood.

"I'm fine. Can you let me see the book you're holding?" Luo Lanxue spoke urgently, her gaze locked onto the volume.

"Of course. It’s actually a very good book!" Yin Luoli said, extending her small arm.

Luo Lanxue took the martial arts manual with great solemnity, but she suddenly noticed something. Her eyes widened in shock as she turned to Yin Luoli.

"Luo Li, you... you... you..."

At that moment, Luo Lanxue’s pupils contracted and her heart raced. Her entire body began to tremble as if she were witnessing something utterly impossible.

"What's wrong with me, sister?" Yin Luoli asked, blinking her large eyes.

"Your cultivation level?" Luo Lanxue gasped in disbelief. "How has your cultivation level surged so much?"

When they had first descended the mountain, she had clearly confirmed that Yin Luoli was only at the 1st level of the Martial Artist realm. But now...

She had reached the 5th level of the Martial Artist realm!

"Huh?"

Hearing this, Yin Luoli quickly checked her own internal cultivation level.

"It's true! I really am a heaven-blessed genius, haha..."

Upon realizing her cultivation had indeed skyrocketed, Yin Luoli immediately began to cheer and boast happily.

Luo Lanxue, however, took a sharp breath.

While Yin Luoli was undoubtedly talented, achieving such progress was fundamentally impossible, especially jumping five levels in such a short window of time.

There was only one logical explanation...

She looked down at the martial arts manual in her hands!

Anxiety filled her heart.

Controlling her shaking jade-like hands, she took a deep breath and eagerly pulled open the manual once more.

"Tai Chi!"

Those three bold words were the first things to meet her eyes.

The calligraphy appeared effortless and flowing, yet a closer look revealed it was incredibly powerful and vigorous.

Luo Lanxue was instantly captivated by those three words. It felt as though an entirely different world was unfolding before her eyes.

A mysterious Tai Chi diagram appeared, with her standing at the very center. When she looked up, she saw a boundless starry sky where the stars were arranged in a peculiar, profound pattern.

She instinctively flipped to the following page.

A vividly drawn little figure appeared. In her expanding pupils, the figure seemed to gently push forward a massive palm imprint.

Her breathing grew frantic, and beads of sweat immediately began to roll down her forehead.

In that instant, she felt like a tiny boat tossed about in a violent storm, liable to be swallowed by this vast world at any second. She slammed the martial arts manual shut and stood there, gasping for air.

"Sister, what's the matter?"

Yin Luoli grabbed Luo Lanxue’s arm, her face full of concern.

It took a long time for Luo Lanxue to find her bearings. Just as she regained her composure and prepared to speak, she was stunned to find that her own cultivation had broken through from the 9th level of the Martial Artist realm to the Great Martial Artist realm.

Luo Lanxue was completely dazed.

The gap between the Martial Artist and Great Martial Artist realms was a massive obstacle for many Cultivators; many remained trapped at the 9th level for their entire lives. Even with her confidence in her own talent, she expected the breakthrough to take at least another year.

And yet, in less time than it takes to drink a cup of tea, she had successfully crossed over?

If the news of their breakthroughs today were to get out, it would likely send shockwaves through the entire South Sha region!

She wiped the sweat from her brow and clutched the martial arts manual tightly, as if it were the most precious treasure in existence.

"Sister, what is really going on with you?"

Seeing Luo Lanxue's strange behavior, Yin Luoli's worry deepened.

Her sister was always extremely disciplined, constantly focused on her Cultivation. Could she have been so stressed that she developed inner demons?

"Luo Li!" Finally, Luo Lanxue came to her senses. She gripped Yin Luoli’s arm and said with total seriousness, "Give me your word that you will never mention this book to anyone. Not a single word."

"But why?"

Yin Luoli blinked, looking confused.

"Don't ask questions. You just need to understand that this book..." Luo Lanxue exhaled slowly and said solemnly, "This book is likely the greatest fortune of your life, and it might also decide the very survival of our Qingshan Sect."

"Huh?"

Yin Luoli was stunned by the weight of those words.

"Furthermore, I must bring this book to Master immediately," Luo Lanxue added.

"Okay!"

Yin Luoli scratched her head. She hadn't finished the book yet and felt very reluctant to give it up, but her sister's expression was deathly serious.

Moreover, she couldn't comprehend how a simple book could be her life’s greatest opportunity, let alone determine the fate of the Qingshan Sect.

Luo Lanxue pulled Yin Luoli along as they hurried back toward the Sect.

As she ran, she thought back...

That young man lounging so casually in his chair was definitely no ordinary mortal!

He had to be a peerless expert far beyond her wildest dreams—someone whose Cultivation had reached the state of returning to simplicity, allowing him to treat the world as his playground.
