Never Heard Such a Request in My Life

Not long ago.

Little Li's entire focus was fixed on the miniature figure within his dantian, as he endured the relentless washing of profound divine insights from the Visionary Diagram. His consciousness felt caught in a whirlpool, barely maintaining a flicker of awareness through the enhancement of moonlight.

The stone monkey's divine pattern grew increasingly vivid.

Alongside it, the names of various daytime deities also sharpened in clarity.

Just like before, Little Li felt as though he were trying to memorize divine sword techniques—utterly impossible to grasp.

As his mind trembled, he nearly lost control of his consciousness. But at that very moment, the protective glow of the Taiyin around him suddenly blazed brilliantly!

What the hell was happening?

He hadn’t been dual-cultivating with the ice block, and even when they did, it never reached this intensity...

The radiant light illuminated his spiritual platform, finally allowing him to perceive the mysteries before him.

【Indestructible Diamond Body】!

The stone monkey's divine pattern completed its imprint at this moment.

Guided by the light, streams of energy ignited every meridian and acupoint within the miniature figure.

A sound—purest metallic resonance—echoed through existence.

A layer of glazed golden light erupted from the dantian figure, thin as a cicada’s wing yet seemingly eternal.

Impervious to blades, untouched by fire or water, unscathed by thunder, unbroken through countless calamities...

Only by stacking all these could one call it the Indestructible Diamond Body!

Even the radiance of the moon could no longer sustain his spirit.

He wasn’t yet qualified to fully absorb the divine insights.

Though his perception of the three spiritual orifices far surpassed others at his level, it remained too feeble to inherit such supernatural powers. Had it not been for the sudden surge of the lunar divine intent, he wouldn’t even have been able to accept the Indestructible Diamond Body.

To truly make this extreme diagram my own...

I’d need at least the Six Senses of the Divine.

As this realization dawned, Li Mo’s consciousness gradually withdrew from the chaotic divine insights.

Little Li awoke, his elation sending him leaping into the air before he noticed Ying Bing standing nearby.

"Ice block, was it you who helped me just now?"

Ying Bing tilted her head slightly, avoiding the blazing joy in the young man’s eyes.

What had gotten into him all of a sudden?

Before she could ask, she felt herself lifted—Little Li spun her around twice, singing:

"Us common folks~ are so happy today!"

Ying Bing stiffened, but seeing his exhilaration, she relented.

She’d never seen him this overjoyed before...

And compared to what she’d just done...

Him spinning her in excitement hardly seemed like a big deal.

So she didn’t push him away.

"Ahem, sorry. Got carried away."

Meeting her cool gaze, Little Li regained some composure.

He realized what he was holding—the ice block!

Releasing her slender waist, he coughed lightly.

"I was just too happy."

"Why?"

Ying Bing tucked a loose strand of hair behind her ear, studying him. His expression showed no oddity—just the glee of a child with a new toy.

Li Mo smirked faintly.

"Now, I can become really hard."

Ying Bing: "?"

Her phoenix-like eyes blinked in confusion.

But his next words were even more baffling.

Li Mo suddenly turned serious.

"Hit me. Hard."

In both her lifetimes, Ying Bing had never heard such a request.

"I still need to observe the divine insights."

She shook her head and turned to leave.

Occasional childishness was one thing, but even if the system ranked his combat power above hers, standing still to take a hit wouldn’t end well.

She didn’t even mention dual cultivation as she left.

Li Mo found it strange—her retreating figure seemed almost... hurried?

As if she’d done something guilty...

Left with no choice, Little Li headed to his master’s room. Rousing the beautiful Shang Wu before she could scold him, he quickly produced a fine wine.

Shang Wu halted her irritation, taking a sip with a huff.

“What kind of serious business could you possibly have in the dead of night?”

"I want you to hit me. Hard."

Li Mo said earnestly.

"Huh?"

Shang Wu was instantly wide awake.

She stared at her precious disciple in disbelief.

"You’re serious?"

"Yep!"

Beyond sheer excitement, Li Mo genuinely wanted to test the limits of his Indestructible Diamond Body—whether it had any weaknesses or restrictions.

This was a life-saving ability; he had to understand it fully.

Shang Wu concluded her disciple had either lost his mind or grown too arrogant.

Did he think that making it into the top 20 of the Hidden Dragon Ranking meant he could face an inner scene?

Did he forget she had once beaten the eighth-ranked on the human leaderboard?

"Fine. Let’s see how much you’ve improved."

Standing in the courtyard, Shang Wu rolled her eyes at Li Mo’s eagerness.

This kid was definitely getting ahead of himself.

If he dared take her full-force strike today, what would he dare tomorrow?

Time to show him her true power.

"Master, please."

Li Mo braced himself cautiously.

Among the interiors he’d encountered, none had surpassed Shang Wu.

Shang Wu smirked, her lovely face alight with amusement.

"Alright."

The next instant—

BOOM!

Without any warning, Shang Wu moved.

The autumn chill seemed to vanish in an instant.

Her waist twisted like a blooming fire lotus.

Her delicate fist clenched as if gripping a blazing sun, then descended with devastating force.

Had it been raining, every drop would have frozen midair.

Li Mo’s heart nearly stopped. As that tyrannical fist closed in, he felt the world flip upside down—doom incarnate.

His master had never gone all-out before...

His mind locked onto the approaching fist, thoughts grinding to a halt.

Then—

The stone monkey divine pattern in his soul blazed.

A surge of defiance ignited within him, snapping him back to awareness.

In the past, regaining focus would’ve been futile—he’d have barely managed to raise a divine weapon in defense.

But now...

"Hmph! Let’s see if you still dare underestimate your master."

Shang Wu’s strike looked lethal, but she was ready to pull back at any moment.

Yet suddenly—

A faint golden light shimmered before her.

It lasted but a breath, yet felt eternal.

It radiated from Li Mo.

And in that instant, Shang Wu saw familiar eyes—defiant, untamed, fearless...

How well she knew them.

A warrior’s heart was one that dared challenge any foe...

"Shang Wu, what are you doing?!"

Elder Xue, having just returned, nearly lost his soul at the sight.

But Shang Wu didn’t retract her punch.

CLANG!!

A metallic clangor split the heavens.
