What do you mean by my awakened profession being Monster Hunter?

"At such a young age, you are so alert. It seems you might indeed be the person I'm looking for."

In Qi Shi'an's view, only someone who has lived in danger since childhood could possess such strength and alertness at such a young age.

"He knows my identity?!" Luo Shenghang's pupils contracted, his heart pounding with shock. "Grandpa said that my identity must not be known to the outside world, and I must remain hidden when traveling the world. If I am discovered, then..."

kill!

The next moment, Luo Shenghang leaped into the air, his pupils like black gemstones, his divine light blazing, and his whole body radiated a blazing sun-like light, surging towards Qi Shi'an.

"Oh?"

Qi Shi'an was somewhat surprised. He had only made a small test, yet it had elicited such a strong reaction from Luo Shenghang. He was still young and lacked composure.

Qi Shi'an remained calm, raised his hand and pointed a finger to block the flames that Luo Shenghang was unleashing.

"boom!"

With a flick of his finger, he sent Luo Shenghang flying.

Luo Shenghang was shocked. This person was too powerful. He broke his supernatural power with just one finger. Who was he? How come he had never heard his master mention that such a person existed in the academy?

"Come on, kid, let me test your mettle."

Qi Shi'an had one hand behind his back and the other clenched into a fist, looking down on the world like a king.

Wangyue Pavilion is Shi Yi's residence, surrounded by numerous magic arrays that even a battle at the True God level could not shake it in the slightest. This is why he chose to meet Luo Shenghang at Wangyue Pavilion.

"How dare you underestimate me!"

Luo Shenghang gritted his teeth. This person actually thought he could fight him with one hand? He was seriously underestimating him.

The two were entangled, their arms glowing, while Luo Shenghang was circulating bone script, using his most powerful technique to forcefully suppress them.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

The two collided, like metal clashing, producing a resounding clang.

Qi Shi'an remained calm and composed. He suppressed his cultivation to the same level as Luo Shenghang and used his powerful physical body to withstand Luo Shenghang's various supernatural abilities.

If he hadn't been testing Luo Shenghang to see just how far Luo Shenghang could go, he could have easily killed a mere early-stage Inscription Realm cultivator with a single finger.

Chi!

Luo Shenghang's eyes flashed with divine light. He raised his hand and extended a palm. Runes intertwined, and his palm and fingers swept through the void as if brushing a willow or dusting away, without a trace of smoke or fire.

"As expected!" Qi Shi'an's eyes lit up. After seeing this supernatural power, he immediately became certain that this person was a member of the Luo family.

hum!

Qi Shi'an slightly raised his hand and gently flicked it. The seemingly light palm wind swept by, without any earth-shattering collision or deafening roar. Luo Shenghang's palm print melted away instantly, like snow meeting the blazing sun.

"How is this possible?" Luo Shenghang was extremely surprised, because the young man in black in front of him actually knew their Luo family's ancestral secret technique, the Heaven-Sweeping Hand!

"Could the force behind him be one of the culprits who destroyed my Luo family back then?!"

This is the only explanation for why this person knows the Luo family's secret techniques. Luo Shenghang's eyes were filled with deep hatred and endless killing intent as he looked at Qi Shi'an.

"Looks like they consider me their enemy?"

Qi Shi'an smiled calmly. He could understand. If he were in Luo Shenghang's shoes, he would also think the same way.

After all, no one could have imagined that Qi Shi'an knew the Luo family's secret techniques simply because he had inherited all of Luo Xiu's teachings.

Qi Shi'an transmitted his thoughts and said leisurely, "Boy, let me see just how far you've progressed in cultivating the Luo family's sacred techniques."

"Who are you, and how do you know my clan's secret techniques!"

Luo Shenghang was greatly alarmed. Ever since the Luo family was forced to go into hiding, they had not even dared to reveal the Luo family's sacred secret techniques. Over the endless years, people should have forgotten about them.

However, the man in black in front of him not only recognized the Luo family's Heaven-Sweeping Hand technique, but also seemed to know about other unique skills of the Luo family. Could it be that this person knew about the Luo family's past?

"Don't worry, I have no ill intentions towards your Luo family. If I were an enemy, why would I hold back?" Qi Shi'an smiled slightly and said, "Besides, your senior brother and I are close friends. Would he send you here to harm you?"

Luo Shenghang kept a straight face. He was struggling with whether to believe this person's words, but judging from his knowledge of the Luo family's ancestral secret technique, the Heaven-Sweeping Hand, he must also be very familiar with the Luo family's other secret techniques. Even if he didn't want to reveal them, this person would definitely force him to use them, so he might as well take a gamble.

Luo Shenghang's small face was cold and sullen as he gritted his teeth and said, "Then you better not blink. The sacred secret techniques of my Luo family are supreme, and even the most skilled experts at the pinnacle of humanity rarely get to see them!"

At this moment, Luo Shenghang formed hand seals, his whole body radiated divine light, his supreme bloodline surged within him, and dense purple-black runes covered his body. At this moment, his aura was much stronger.

Qi Shi'an's gaze sharpened, his eyes filled with satisfaction. He clenched his fist and prepared for a fierce battle.

"Boom! Boom! Boom..."

In just a moment, the two had already exchanged hundreds of blows. Qi Shi'an unleashed a series of powerful attacks, engaging in a physical battle with Luo Shenghang at the same level, and he was still fighting with only one hand.

The lake surface undulates, the two sides intertwine with the bone script, a strong wind blows, and brilliant light shines down, and in a moment, blood is sprayed.

Luo Shenghang felt a chill run down his spine. Just being grazed by the wind of the fist had injured his shoulder. This person had suppressed his cultivation to the Inscription Realm, yet he could still withstand the Luo family's ultimate technique with his physical body. Just how high had this person's physical body been cultivated?

"Indeed, to have cultivated the Nine Sacred Arts of Moro to such a level at such a young age, your talent is enough to make you stand out among your peers," Qi Shi'an praised.

The Nine Sacred Arts of Moro is a body-refining method created by Supreme Luo Xiu for his family members. It is a method that all members of the Luo family must practice before embarking on cultivation. It contains many mysteries. Without practicing this art, Supreme Luo Xiu's many supernatural powers cannot be brought to their full potential.

"call out!"

Qi Shi'an leaped up and unleashed the great supernatural power of the Nine Sacred Arts of Moro without reservation.

In an instant, nine-colored divine light burst forth from Qi Shi'an's palm, piercing through heaven and earth. Divine runes flew everywhere, the Great Dao resonated, and nine divine rainbows soared into the sky, tearing through the void. The entire Wangyue Pavilion was enveloped in the nine-colored divine light.

"Nine Sacred Divine Light Technique!"

Luo Shenghang was shocked. This kind of great supernatural power was not recorded in any of the methods currently possessed by the Luo family, and it had obviously been lost. Could this person possess the complete text of the Nine Sacred Arts of Moro?!

His heart pounded, for he was nearly exhausted.

Luo Shenghang took a deep breath, his body covered in runes, and used the last of his strength to empower himself and suppress his opponent.

"boom!"

However, the gap between the two was still too great. Qi Shi'an had reached the second realm, surpassing the sages of ancient and modern times. As the nine-colored divine light swept over, Luo Shenghang was sent flying backward, spitting out a mouthful of blood.

In an instant, Qi Shi'an waved his hand, and the nine-colored divine light quickly dissipated, instantly calming the waves that had been stirred up.

"Your temperament is just like your ancestors', especially that resolute look in your eyes," Qi Shi'an said slowly.

Luo Shenghang staggered to his feet, clutching his chest, and said in a deep voice, "My ancestor has been gone for many years, how could you possibly have seen him?"

"I was fortunate enough to catch a glimpse of him in the mortal realm, and I still can't forget that look in his eyes."

"My ancestors were in the lower realm?! Then..."

Luo Shenghang was so excited that he completely forgot he was seriously injured. In his excitement, the pain in his wounds became even more intense.

Qi Shi'an smiled slightly, flicked his finger, and a drop of medicinal liquid made from sacred medicine entered his body. His injuries were repaired at a speed visible to the naked eye, and even his cultivation showed signs of loosening.

"Thank you." Luo Shenghang clasped his hands in thanks.

Qi Shi'an smiled calmly and said softly, "No need to thank me. Your ancestor also helped me break through, so this karma naturally falls on you."

Back in the Hundred Broken Mountains of the lower realm, when he merged his ten grotto heavens into one, it was a wisp of remnant spirit of Supreme Luo Xiu who helped him. Later, he even obtained the Nine Nether Treasure Technique. Such karma can only be repaid on his descendants.

Moreover, Luo Xiu was a disciple of his Qi clan ancestor, so he would help Luo Shenghang both morally and logically.

"With the passing of Supreme Luo Xiu, your Luo family must have suffered greatly during that escape." Qi Shi'an recalled a glimpse of that cruel period when he obtained Supreme Luo Xiu's inheritance.

Luo Shenghang's eyes dimmed, and he said with a sense of dejection, "Yes, I heard from my grandfather that since our ancestor passed away, those powerful forces have been hunting down our Luo family. If it weren't for the help of our ancestor's close friend, our Luo family would probably have been wiped out."

"My dear friend, do you know his name?"

"I don't know, but one of our clan's elders left behind a bone book before he passed away. It records that blood-stained era. Our ancestor's close friend was a supreme being who held a blood-stained battle flag."

A blood-stained battle flag?! Could it be...?

Qi Shi'an was greatly shocked, and his heart was filled with turbulent waves. If it was really the legendary battle flag as he thought, then his close friend was very likely surnamed Xu!

"Open your divine sense."

Qi Shi'an spoke slowly. Luo Shenghang was puzzled, but he still obediently opened his divine sense.

"call out!"

Qi Shi'an's brow glowed, his spiritual power condensed into a beam of light, containing countless runes that entered Luo Shenghang's brow.

In an instant, Luo Shenghang's mind was as if it were being hit by a giant wave, and many scriptures surged into his mind.

"This is... the legacy of our ancestors?!" Luo Shenghang was stunned. Some of the missing supernatural abilities in his Moro Nine Saints Technique had been completely restored!

In addition, there are several top-tier divine techniques, each more powerful than the Heaven-Sweeping Hand.

"seal up!"

Qi Shi'an formed a hand seal, sealing the original runes of the Nine Netherworld Hound Treasure Technique into Luo Shenghang's sea of ​​consciousness.

This peerless technique is a world-destroying technique. Given Luo Shenghang's age and cultivation level, he is very likely to suffer a backlash if he comes into contact with it too early. Not everyone can suppress the backlash like Qi Shi'an, who possesses a heaven-defying treasure like the Myriad Dao Tree.

Now, with Qi Shi'an's sealing power above, only when his cultivation level reaches a certain point can he slowly unlock the seal and begin his cultivation.

"You must cultivate diligently and not fail the legacy of Supreme Luo Xiu. Also, if your strength is insufficient, do not attempt to shake the secret technique sealed within your body, and do not reveal your ultimate skills casually."

After saying that, Qi Shi'an flashed away from Wangyue Pavilion, leaving Luo Shenghang alone to slowly comprehend it.

When Luo Shenghang woke up and wanted to express his gratitude, he found that Qi Shi'an had already disappeared.

"Forget it, instead of searching aimlessly, I'll wait until Senior Brother Shi Yi finishes the competition before asking him about the senior's identity." Luo Shenghang scratched his head and continued to comprehend.

Having obtained all the inherited scriptures from their ancestors, the Luo family is now poised to restore its former glory.

Chapter 149 Holy Yuan Divine Pool

Seven days later, the grand competition at Tianyun Academy came to a successful conclusion.

As expected, the four bone talismans were obtained by Shi Yi, the second and fourth prodigies, and Fairy Wanyue. Chu Qianxie, the third prodigy of the academy, was unsurprisingly defeated by the first generation, who was ranked lower than him, and it was a crushing defeat!

Helpless, he could only prepare to go to the Spirit Realm to compete with millions of Venerables for those tens of thousands of spots.

Chu Qianxie blamed everything on the black-clad youth who had seriously injured him that day, and even threatened to go to the life-or-death arena with that youth for a final battle.

These words immediately caused a huge uproar throughout Tianyun Academy.

The news that Chu Qianxie had been defeated in two moves had already spread throughout the academy. Everyone, from disciples to elders and even the former dean, knew about Chu Qianxie's "humiliating history".

Now, this matter has reached the point where all the major forces in Tianyun Prefecture are aware of it.

Countless disciples wanted to see just how Chu Qianxie could say such a thing.

However, Qi Shi'an was completely unaware of these external disturbances, and even if he had known, he wouldn't have been foolish enough to go out and fight.

Qi Shi'an could roughly guess what Chu Qianxie was thinking.

They simply wanted to use public opinion to lure him out to fight, while the many gods and sect leaders of the Chu family went into hiding, and then deliver a fatal blow.

Although killing is not allowed within the academy, if he were to actually die, the academy would likely just let it go.

After all, he was not a disciple of Tianyun Academy. He was only able to enter the academy with the help of Bai Qitian and Li Yuncong.

"The outside world is in such a commotion, and you still have the mood to drink tea!"

Li Yuncong rushed over; he was there on behalf of Bai Qitian to deliver the ancient map.

"Let them make a fuss, I don't care who it is. I'll just stay in this mansion, who dares to break in?" Qi Shi'an shrugged, looking indifferent.

"You freeload off my residence and then call it protection with such high-sounding words, you are truly shameless!"

As soon as Shi Yi returned, he heard Qi Shi'an saying shameless things, and he couldn't help but roll his eyes, speechless.

"What kind of talk is that? Haven't I provided you with the experience points for ultimate advancement during this period?" Qi Shi'an teased.

Since entering Tianyun Academy, Shi Yi has come to Qi Shi'an every day to discuss the Dao, hoping to find a way to break through to the ultimate level.

Qi Shi'an and Shi Hao were both able to break through to the ultimate level, so why couldn't he? He was unwilling to miss this opportunity to become powerful.

Qi Shi'an, who surpasses sages of the past and present in both the Cave Heaven and Inscription realms, is the most proficient candidate in this field, and Shi Yi will certainly not miss any opportunity to improve.

Shi Yi snorted coldly, not daring to refute: "My junior brother has been asking about you, but I haven't told him yet. You'll have to decide this matter yourself."

"I have no objection. It's not like it's something to be ashamed of." Qi Shi'an tapped the stone platform lightly with his fingers and said with a calm smile, "Your junior brother is a good prospect, but he is still young and needs guidance to avoid going astray."

"I know without you telling me."

Every time Shi Yi sees Luo Shenghang, he is reminded of his past self. Therefore, he has been intentionally or unintentionally teaching Luo Shenghang to prevent him from following the same path as himself.

"Here you are the ancient map you requested. Elder Bai Qi reminded me to tell you about it and to remember to find it for him in the Immortal Ancient Realm."

Li Yuncong handed the ancient map to Qi Shi'an. He was curious as to why the Heavenly God Bai Qitian had specifically asked this person to find something, which seemed to be some extraordinary treasure.

You must know, the person in front of you is the legendary young demon lord. If others knew this, they would be incredibly shocked.

Several days earlier, Qi Shi'an had revealed his identity to Li Yuncong. He felt that Li Yuncong was a person worth befriending, so he did not hide it from him.
