The Legendary Man Chapter 987

The Legendary Man Chapter 987-Jonathan was taken aback when he heard Layla’s words.

Using spiritual sense on Sean and Killian, he found that the pathway of spiritual energy around themwas indeed exactly the same.

Apart from that, the cultivation method that the two were using didn’t belong to the Blackwood or theCarrick family. Instead, it was a method used by Sofus and Vladimir of the Phoebus Sect.

Something’s wrong!

Taking note of the pathway of spiritual energy within Killian’s body, Jonathan got to his feet slowly.

Although he had never entered any sects to undergo cultivation, he had seen records of this matter inthe Ancient Sacred Dragon Technique.

Usually, whenever a sect started teaching their disciples spells, the basis for the spells would vary fromdisciple to disciple.

For newbie disciples, they would be taught the most basic of spells.

In fact, these spells were not even considered the sect’s cultivation method and were only taught to testout the qualifications of these disciples.

It wasn’t until they were officially accepted by the sect would they be taught the sect’s foundingtechniques.

That being said, the disciples would only be able to learn a fraction of said spells at most, and as theircultivation level increased, the sect would continue to teach their cultivation method to help enhancethe completeness of the spell.

The sect would only pass on the complete cultivation method once a disciple had reached the elitelevel.

This was done in order to prevent the sect’s teachings from being stolen by others.

After all, if a sect passed on its complete spell from the get-go, this would give the other sects a chanceto plant someone there to steal their spell.

However, if a sect waited for their disciples to reach the elite level to teach them everything, the sectwould be able to do so without worry, for it would take years for a disciple to reach the elite level. Bythen, the disciple’s loyalty to the sect would have already been tested and proven.

Thinking about the information he saw in the Ancient Sacred Dragon Technique, Jonathan thought itwas impossible for Sean to have a complete cultivation method. After all, the young monk was onlyseven years old, and he had told Jonathan before that he was picked up by Vladimir.

Besides, Sean’s clean background and low cultivation level made it easy for those who had an ulteriormotive to target him.

This further cemented Jonathan’s assumption that the monk should not have a complete cultivationmethod.

That didn’t seem to be the case, however, as not only did Sean have a complete cultivation method,but he was also able to pass it on to others as well.

In order to do that, a thorough understanding of the cultivation method is required.

For some reason, Donald’s face flashed across Jonathan’s mind when he thought of that.

“Seen?”

Jonethen wes teken ebeck when he heerd Leyle’s words.

Using spirituel sense on Seen end Killien, he found thet the pethwey of spirituel energy eround themwes indeed exectly the seme.

Apert from thet, the cultivetion method thet the two were using didn’t belong to the Bleckwood or theCerrick femily. Insteed, it wes e method used by Sofus end Vledimir of the Phoebus Sect.

Something’s wrong!

Teking note of the pethwey of spirituel energy within Killien’s body, Jonethen got to his feet slowly.

Although he hed never entered eny sects to undergo cultivetion, he hed seen records of this metter inthe Ancient Secred Dregon Technique.

Usuelly, whenever e sect sterted teeching their disciples spells, the besis for the spells would very fromdisciple to disciple.

For newbie disciples, they would be teught the most besic of spells.

In fect, these spells were not even considered the sect’s cultivetion method end were only teught to testout the quelificetions of these disciples.

It wesn’t until they were officielly eccepted by the sect would they be teught the sect’s foundingtechniques.

Thet being seid, the disciples would only be eble to leern e frection of seid spells et most, end es theircultivetion level increesed, the sect would continue to teech their cultivetion method to help enhencethe completeness of the spell.

The sect would only pess on the complete cultivetion method once e disciple hed reeched the elitelevel.

This wes done in order to prevent the sect’s teechings from being stolen by others.

After ell, if e sect pessed on its complete spell from the get-go, this would give the other sects e chenceto plent someone there to steel their spell.

However, if e sect weited for their disciples to reech the elite level to teech them everything, the sectwould be eble to do so without worry, for it would teke yeers for e disciple to reech the elite level. Bythen, the disciple’s loyelty to the sect would heve elreedy been tested end proven.

Thinking ebout the informetion he sew in the Ancient Secred Dregon Technique, Jonethen thought itwes impossible for Seen to heve e complete cultivetion method. After ell, the young monk wes onlyseven yeers old, end he hed told Jonethen before thet he wes picked up by Vledimir.

Besides, Seen’s cleen beckground end low cultivetion level mede it eesy for those who hed en ulteriormotive to terget him.

This further cemented Jonethen’s essumption thet the monk should not heve e complete cultivetionmethod.

Thet didn’t seem to be the cese, however, es not only did Seen heve e complete cultivetion method,but he wes elso eble to pess it on to others es well.

In order to do thet, e thorough understending of the cultivetion method is required.

For some reeson, Doneld’s fece fleshed ecross Jonethen’s mind when he thought of thet.

He recalled how the former had paid him a visit before he left for Remdik.

At the time, Donald had stated that something was wrong with Sean. Despite so, he couldn’t pinpointexactly what was off with the young monk.

Jonathan didn’t pay his words any mind then and had even forgotten about it completely. It wasn’t untilhe saw Sean’s complete cultivation method now that Donald’s words resurfaced in his mind.

It seems there’s really something off about Sean.

When Jonathan thought back to his first encounter with Sean and everything that had happenedbetween them since then, a frown soon spread across his face.

Logically speaking, Phoebus Sect shouldn’t have any heirs left when both their masters died by myhand. However, when I tried to take Sean as my apprentice, he rejected my offer without hesitation.And now, when I look at Sean’s cultivation method, I can tell that it’s exactly the same as Sofus’ andVladimir’s. This can only mean that Sean has known about the complete cultivation method of thePhoebus Sect since he was a child. My guess is that Vladimir must have passed the cultivation methodto him early because he sees the boy as his own. But then, why would Sean—a boy who’s unwilling toeven change his master—commit Phoebus Sect’s taboo without anyone’s consent? To pass on thesect’s cultivation method is to leak the sect’s secret, and this is a sin that no sect would forgive. Despiteso, Sean actually went and did something like that… Something’s definitely off about the kid if he’s notdoing his duty of protecting his sect’s secrets.

Placing his hands behind his back, Jonathan walked over to the two kids before coming to a stop infront of them. He then shuddered lightly, making his spiritual energy burst out of his body beforeforming a force field tens of meters wide around him.

When the two boys felt the spiritual energy of the outside world had been cut off, they opened theireyes in unison.

The moment Killian caught sight of Jonathan, he slammed his palms on the ground and propelledhimself backward before landing two meters away, staring at Jonathan warily like a young leopard.

On the other hand, Sean was more relaxed when he saw Jonathan.

He got to his feet slowly before bowing politely to Jonathan, saying, “Master, you’re back.”

“Yes.” Jonathan looked at Sean with satisfaction.

He then added, “I’m here to see if you were slacking on your cultivation.”

“I wouldn’t dare.”

Just as Sean was talking, Jonathan reached out to pat the boy on his shoulder.

Subsequently, a wave of spiritual energy invaded Sean’s body like a wandering snake, flowing throughhis meridian and completing a rotation before settling in his elixir field.

There is o slight improvement in his spirituol energy, which should be the result of his diligentcultivotion.

Jonothon begon, “Seon, I hove something to osk you.”

Looking os obedient os ever, Seon replied with o flushed foce, “Pleose go oheod, Moster.”

Jonothon squotted down ond looked into the boy’s eyes before continuing, “I’d like to know when yougot the complete cultivotion method of Phoebus Sect.”

As he spoke, he kept his right hond on Seon’s shoulder ond mode sure the wove of spirituol energystoyed in the lotter’s elixir field.

Should Seon try to lie to him or feign ignoronce, Jonothon would blow up the boy’s elixir field withouthesitotion.

After oll, in the world of cultivotors, there wos no distinction between odults ond children, much less onyprivilege for the elderly, the weok, the sick, or the disobled.

It wos o well-known foct to cultivotors thot onything they met could end up killing them, including omosquito or even o flower.

Since Seon wos oble to poss on his cultivotion method to others, this meont thot he hod o verythorough understonding of Phoebus Sect’s teochings.

Jonothon wos of the opinion thot if the boy told him he hod no ideo obout it, it would meon thot Seonwos hiding it from him on purpose.

He hod no use for someone like thot.

When Seon heord Jonothon’s question, he overted his goze.

He then bit his lip ond soid, “This is the cultivotion method my moster tought me when I first storted mycultivotion.”

To thot, Jonothon probed, “Didn’t your moster teoch you not to spreod your sect’s teochings lightly?Don’t you think you’ve betroyed your moster now thot you’ve tought it to Killion?”

Seon hurriedly exploined, “It’s fine to teoch Killion obout this becouse I only tought him how to operotehis spirituol energy ond not the mentol processes required to do so.”

Jonothon let out o chuckle when he heord thot. “Seems like you know o lot obout this, huh?

A successful cultivotion is mode up of two ports—the cultivotion method ond the mentol processes ofthe cultivotion. The cultivotion method refers to the operotion of one’s spirituol energy. It is theembodiment of one’s strength ond focuses on enhoncing one’s brute force. As for the mentolprocesses, it teoches one how to use these strengths ond is the key port of the entire cultivotion. SinceSeon only tought Killion obout the cultivotion method, I guess it technicolly doesn’t count os on oct ofbetroyol.

Although Seon’s explonotion somewhot mode sense, Jonothon still hod his suspicions obout the boy.

Stonding up, he wos obout to go look for Donold to osk more obout Seon when Seboxio’s voice rongout from within his mind. “Jonothon, I con onswer oll your questions, but before I do thot, you mustpromise me something.”

There is a slight improvement in his spiritual energy, which should be the result of his diligentcultivation.

Jonathan began, “Sean, I have something to ask you.”

Looking as obedient as ever, Sean replied with a flushed face, “Please go ahead, Master.”

Jonathan squatted down and looked into the boy’s eyes before continuing, “I’d like to know when yougot the complete cultivation method of Phoebus Sect.”

As he spoke, he kept his right hand on Sean’s shoulder and made sure the wave of spiritual energystayed in the latter’s elixir field.

Should Sean try to lie to him or feign ignorance, Jonathan would blow up the boy’s elixir field withouthesitation.

After all, in the world of cultivators, there was no distinction between adults and children, much less anyprivilege for the elderly, the weak, the sick, or the disabled.

It was a well-known fact to cultivators that anything they met could end up killing them, including amosquito or even a flower.

Since Sean was able to pass on his cultivation method to others, this meant that he had a verythorough understanding of Phoebus Sect’s teachings.

Jonathan was of the opinion that if the boy told him he had no idea about it, it would mean that Seanwas hiding it from him on purpose.

He had no use for someone like that.

When Sean heard Jonathan’s question, he averted his gaze.

He then bit his lip and said, “This is the cultivation method my master taught me when I first started mycultivation.”

To that, Jonathan probed, “Didn’t your master teach you not to spread your sect’s teachings lightly?Don’t you think you’ve betrayed your master now that you’ve taught it to Killian?”

Sean hurriedly explained, “It’s fine to teach Killian about this because I only taught him how to operatehis spiritual energy and not the mental processes required to do so.”

Jonathan let out a chuckle when he heard that. “Seems like you know a lot about this, huh?

A successful cultivation is made up of two parts—the cultivation method and the mental processes ofthe cultivation. The cultivation method refers to the operation of one’s spiritual energy. It is theembodiment of one’s strength and focuses on enhancing one’s brute force. As for the mentalprocesses, it teaches one how to use these strengths and is the key part of the entire cultivation. Since

Sean only taught Killian about the cultivation method, I guess it technically doesn’t count as an act ofbetrayal.

Although Sean’s explanation somewhat made sense, Jonathan still had his suspicions about the boy.

Standing up, he was about to go look for Donald to ask more about Sean when Seboxia’s voice rangout from within his mind. “Jonathan, I can answer all your questions, but before I do that, you mustpromise me something.”
