Inside his room, Qing Yun was seated crosslegged on the bed, his eyes closed. The natural energy inside the room were forming swirls as they were absorbed inside Qing Yun’s body. Qing Yun’s body was like a bottomless pit as it absorbed the energy around him at an astonishing rate.
Inside his sea of consciousness Qing Yun had a calm expression on his face as he looked at his dantian. The natural energies that were absorbed inside his body were soon assimilated inside it. The same strange occurrence appeared again, the natural energy disappeared as soon as it was absorbed by his dantian.
This time Qing Yun wasn’t surprised as he observed this with a calm countenance. When he brokethrough to the first heavenly layer of the [Primordial God Physique] his comprehension towards the primordial Qi had advanced too. He now understood that the natural energy hasn’t disappeared but rather it was refined into primordial Qi.
It was just that Qing Yun’s comprehension of the primordial Qi was to shallow, because of that even if he knew what was happening he still couldn’t understand the process and thus was not able to see how the natural energy was refined in the primordial Qi.
Even so, he could vaguely sense the strand of primordial Qi inside the crystalline core getting stronger. The crystalline core was transparent and even the strand of primordial Qi seemed colorless. It was the first time Qing Yun saw such a colorless Qi.. actually it was the first time he saw any kind of Qi but he never heard of a colorless kind of Qi. This primordial Qi was indeed mysterious.
Even the most ordinary spiritual Qi would have a faint gold color. When one broke through from the Xiantian realm into the Earth Profound realm the spiritual Qi they refined inside their dantian would change according to the Profound Art cultivated.
For example, the disciple of Frozen Cloud Asgard that practice the Frozen Cloud Arts, upon breakingthrough into Earth Profound realm, the usually faint gold colored spiritual qi, would change into a type of ice Qi with a deep blue color.
…
Huuh
Inside the room, Qing Yun finally opened his eyes after six hours. He raised to his legs and and shoot a few punches into air. This time without using any Qi.
“Mm, my current strength should be at the 4th layer of Houtain realm, adding the explosive might of the primordial Qi, I shouldn’t have any problem fighting against the 6th layer of Houtian, even someone at the 7th layer should have some headache dealing with me!” Qing Yun said with a satisfied smile.
One has to say, the [Primordial God Physique] was truly wondrous. Qing Yun just barely started his cultivation and already caught up with his peers in the young generation. There shouldn’t be many from the young generation in the Tianlong City who could put a fight against Qing Yun. Qing Su was of course an exception.
Qing Yun was sure that he won’t even resist three moves in front of her. That little genius has hovered at the peak of Houtian for three years already. Her foundation was as stable as it could be. According to Qing Yun’ guess, Qing Su should be able to put a fight against a 1st layer of Xiantian realm warrior, assuming that the later didn’t trained in any Profound Art.
At this moment Qing Su was able to train in a Profound Art but Qing Yun wanted to let her concentrate on breakingthrough to Xiantian first. It wouldn’t be too late to give her a Profound Art then.
“I should be able to train a Profound Art now,” Qing Yun shook his head, “It’s still to early though, there is still to much I don’t know about this Primordial God Physique. I should wait to reach the 2nd heavenly layer before making a decision.”
Qing Yun was not a reckless person, although he knew he didn’t have too much time, he still didn’t wish to act blindly.
The martial dao was a mysterious and unending path, a wrong step and one wouldn’t know how they died, thus even if Qing Yun was excited to further his cultivation his still had to suppress this urge.
“For now I should concentrate on breakingthorugh to the 2nd heavenly layer,” Qing Yun tone was dispirited but his face showed otherwise as it was filled with boundless excitement. In his two lifetimes his greatest wish was to destroy Demon Gate and protect his loved ones. But this was by no means his final goal.
The road of martial dao was boundless, now that he was reincarnated his desire for revenge didn’t subsided but the place of his enemies in his heart became that of a step stone. Back then his greatest wish was to achieve his revenge but he never thought higher than that as he knew he was gonna die.
Unlawfully taken from Royal Road, this story should be reported if seen on Amazon.
Even if he could survive at the end, he still didn’t wish to live. What right did he have to live when so many live were lost because of him?
But now was different, although he still felt great pressure from those super sects, it wasn’t enough to deter him. He had his previous life’s memories and many others trump cards up his sleeve. With enough time to develop he didn’t believe that he won’t be able to stomp over those super sects.
One has to say, Qing Yun arrogance seemed to have no boundary, but who could blame him, he was able to become one of the overlords of this world once when he was a cripple, now, with his cultivation restored and the boundless knowledge from the Gate of Knowledge, how could he not reach the pinnacle of this world If given enough time?
Of course although Qing Yun was arrogant, It didn’t mean that he slight his enemies, he went through to much to make a mistake at this point. If he were to face them alone although he may be able to win in the end the price will be too big. That’s why his biggest priority right now was to find trustworthy companions.
As for time, he had his past memories so he could always be several steps ahead of Demon Gate, although he wasn’t strong enough to fight against them right now, he could still create some headaches for them and make sure they won’t be able to activate that killing formation.
His first priority was to find Xiao Mei before Demon Gate and for that, he first had to take care of the Xiao Clan and Qing Clan. If his guess was right there should be someone sent by Demon Gate behind those two clans.
“A symbol master?” Qing Yun let out a mocking laugh as soon as those words left his mouth, “The Murdering Heart Powder, the Soul Stirring Powder used on mother and the Enchanting Powder that Xiao Zhi wanted to use on Little Su, they all had traces of spiritual strength.”
Qing Yun shook his head in disdain, “What symbol master? Even an ordinary physician could create better medicinal powder that this so called symbol master.”
Qing Yun tone was full of disdain, but one could hear the slight ripple in his voice when he mentioned symbol master. Even Qing Yun felt great reverence towards this profession, as for the symbol master behind Xiao Clan and Qing Clan, he didn’t put him in his eyes. He even felt that whoever it was, that guy was unworthy of the title of symbol master.
“Ke, Demon Gate lives up to it's reputation all right, they couldn’t be bothered to send someone from their sect, and just sent their dogs.” Qing Yun laughed mockingly.
“Hee, symbol master! I wonder if I meet the requirements?!”
Knock, knock!
Before his thoughts could go any further the sound of knocking on the door, awakened Qing Yun from trance.
He opened the door just o see the huge figure of Su Fen. No matter how many time he saw him this guy looked really imposing.
“Brother Fen, is something wrong?” Qing Yun asked with a perplexed tone. His mouth formed a light smile.
Su Fen mouth twitched at this sight of Qing Yun, “Brother Yun, don’t be like that, didn’t we promised to drink together tonight?”
“Hahaha,” Qing Yun laughed heartily, “I’m just kidding! Brother Fen do you know any good place around here?”
Su Fen beamed, “Of course I know, don’t worry, since I’m drinking with my brother I won’t be stingy! Let’s go Brother Yun!” Su Fen got Qing Yun’s neck into a hold and dragged him out.
Qing Yun didn’t mind this, he rather liked Su Fen’s straightforward personality. They both made their way out of Su Clan chatting and laughing loudly.
There where three figure’s watching them from afar.
Qing Yin and Su Yijn were wearing helpless expression as the glanced at the pouting figure of Qing Su.
“Lass, what’s with that look, men are always like that, you have to give them space sometimes.” Su Yijun said helplessly.
“Hmph!” Qing Su stomped her foot and turned to leave. It seems she intended to spend some time with Qing Yun.
Seeing her like this, Su Yijun an Qing Yin looked at each other and laughed bitterly. Even they felt baffled at this sight of Qing Su. This lass had a graceful and poised demeanor with an air of elegance always exuding from her presence, those who saw her won’t believe that she is just a fourteen years old girl.
Who would have thought that this lady with a demeanor of a goddess would become like a little girl in front of Qing Yun. Even Qing Yin an Su Yijun were amused by this sight. They knew that Qing Su had feelings for Qing Yun, but they would have never believed that she could change like that in front of him.
“Sister Yin, are you sure you want him to find ou?”
Su Yijun tone became serious as she looked at the at the departing figures of Su Fen and Qing Yun.
“It’s alright, we never had any attachments to the Qing Clan, I believe Yun’er won’t be to affected either, the only person from that place who cared about us was Uncle Long, but he is already…”
Qing Yin shook her head, there wasn’t any emotion in her words when she mentioned Qing Clan, but she couldn’t but let out a dispirit sigh thinking about Qing Long.
……
Qing Yun and Su Fen walked through the wide streets while chatting they completely disregarded the strange looks shot at them, or rather to Qing Yun, by the passersby. Qing Yun wouldn’t be bothered by them in the first place and with Su Fen straightforward personality he wouldn’t care either.
After a while they finally arrived in front of six story building. It’s exterior was painted in faint silver color giving it an air of elegance.
At this moment Qing Yun was looking at the big signboard above the entrance with a mischievous smile on his face.
“Xu Ya Inn, so that’s how it is!”
By his side Su Fen had his face flushed at the sight of Qing Yun expression. This once again left Qing Yun speechless. He would have never believed that this imposing looking person would have such an innocent side to him.
