" Only then did the three raise their heads, drawing back their gaze with reluctance, and stop reading the golden book. Shen Mu asked hurriedly, "Grandpa Village Chief, are you confident you can repair the Spirit Bridge? " The Village Chief shook his head. "Little remains of my allotted lifespan.
Whether I can repair the Spirit Bridge before I die of old age depends on my own fate.
Judging by the three arts in this book, mending the Spirit Bridge will not be easy. " The Jingping Imperial Preceptor nodded. "Before that, the mathematical principles hidden in these three arts must be calculated out.
This is of the utmost importance. A numerological model of the three arts must be built as quickly as possible; only then can they be spread abroad. " The Lame Elder said with a cold laugh, "Jingping Imperial Preceptor, you want to spread an art that can make a man a god or a demon, so that anyone may learn it, but have you asked the Shen family of Carefree Land?
These three arts are not yours, after all! " The Jingping Imperial Preceptor was slightly taken aback, then said apologetically, "It never occurred to me to wonder whether the art could be passed on, and so I forgot to ask its owner. Sect Master Shen.
. . " Shen Mu laughed. "I never thought of keeping it to myself either.
Just now I was thinking it should be passed on; there is no need to hoard a worn-out broom as a treasure. " The Jingping Imperial Preceptor gazed into his eyes as if to read the true thought at the bottom of his heart, but he saw only Shen Mu's utterly clear gaze. Suddenly he sighed and said, "Old Human Emperor, I finally understand why you chose him as your successor.
He truly has the qualifications and the breadth of mind to be Human Emperor. Young as he is, his scope is vast enough!
" The Village Chief said calmly, "The Shen boy was taught by us; naturally his scope is vast enough! "
