Divine capital city, Detsun empire
With in a grand palace which was situated at south of imperial palace. A senile old man was triming his bonsai neatly" ahh it suits pretty well" mmh " satisfied with his own work he turned around and took a seat and sipped in some tea. As he was enjoying the sight of his garden, a soldier of zai clan had bought a letter in his hand. The soldier repectfully bowed and presented the letter" your excellency, a letter was sent by general taixuan from western koi province" After handing the letter the soldier bowed and took his leave.
"it's been long since that unfilial son of mine has sent me a letter, what might it be about??"the old man was non other than zai taixuans father zai houtian. Although he was frowning he was happy inside his heart. After all it has been five years since he had met his son during banquet for birth of his fifth grandson zai mushen. He unfolded the letter and started to read it. At first part of the letter it was about the situation in the city of Zhou afterward it was about zai wuhen who had passed the trial of the dark forest. He was glad that his fifth grandson had passed the trail of dark forest. The point which startled the old zai the most was where his sixth grandson zai mushen had reached advanced level of spirit core formation stage and was near peak stage of spirit core formation stage that to at tender of five years. He couldn't believe it so he put the letter near his eyes as he read the last part again and again. After reading it for couple of time he put it down and burst into laughter.
Some guards were startled by the sudden sound of laughter as the head of zai clan had not had a hearty laugh in many years. "what might have caused his excellency laugh out like this it must be pretty joyous if I have to say" said one the guards. As other guards nodded their head and went on their duty. As zai clan was a military power house it strictly regulated laws without any leeway for the culprit.
"ahh my zai clan hadn't had a genius of this level in hundreds of years" old zai was all smile as he had a grandson who had an outstanding talent. " I will have to train him myself so as to provide him with a strong base for his future" Old zai took a slip of paper as he scribbled something down and he put the pen down. A shadow figure knelt down" send it to general taixuan "said old zai as he passed the letter to the shadow figure. Taking the letter the shadow figure soon disappeared.
.....
Meanwhile zai mushen was practicing fist techniques with his martial arts instructor. The set of fist techniques were called War God fist technique which was only taught to members of zai household. The fist techniques consisted 5 phases, if the cultivator is able to complete first phase their speed of strikes would increase, the second phase focused on attack power, third phase consisted movement sets, fourth phase consisted of body strengthning sets while the last phase taught the cultivator to intertwine their spiritual energy outside their body which can be used for both offence as well as defence. The most fascinating thing about this fist technique was that it could also use any elemental power of the cultivator specialised on to increase his battle strength, while most of the fist techniques could only use single element or dual element to increase the cultivators battle strength.
After finishing the first phase of the fist techniques zai mushen's clothes were drenched with sweat. He wiped the sweats from his forehead as he bowed at his martial arts instructor " senior zai meng, I have completed my first phase of war God fist technique all due to your clear and profound instructions" zai meng had a smile on his face as he helped zai mushen straighten up" no need to be polite little monster you completed first phase only in fifth day of training, if it were others it might take them about 2 weeks . you surely have innate talent in both cultivation and battle prowess"
zai meng didn't know that the one his is teaching the fist techniques had already reached the pinnacle of cultivation stage, since his spiritual sense was superior he could quickly learn anything weather it was fighting techniques or theoretical knowledge. he could also analyse and modify techniques to his necessity.
After bidding farewell, zai mushen returned to his courtyard. Right now zai mushen was going be six years old in time of a month.
" I have already reincarnated and now am nearing six years of age. the current life is more frutitious, I have reached peak level of spirit core formation stage and only a bit far from nascent spirit stage. in my previous life I was still middle level of spirit core formation stage. sigh even the current body is suited for cultivator and has a hidden strength within. if I can I have to know about its bloodline. the techniques from my previous life were all quite crude and only focused on attack power. if I can mix my previous techniques with the current ones the effectiveness will increase" After mumbling to himself zai mushen took off his sweaty robe as he entered the bath tub which was giving off smell of some medicinal herbs.
