Tang, He brought Tang Yu into his house. The house looked large for just 1 person, but the house itself wasn't actually largely due to the lack of furniture and accessories.
Uncle He led Tang Yu to the dining table and the first thing Tang Yu asked was "What happened? Your eye, is it gone?"
Uncle He sighed "It was a couple of rogue mercenaries from the Silver Dragon Empire. They ambushed my unit and was suffered significant losses, luckily my eye is just injured not destroyed."
Tang Yu's eyes changed "My parents told me that the Silver Dragon Empire and the Zhang Dynasty had a peace treaty, why are they attacking?"
Although Black Tiger City is on the border of the two empires, the Black Tiger City and the Forest of Beasts both belong to the Zhang Dynasty.
Uncle He chuckled with obvious fury "The bastards from the Empire have been breaching the treaties for decades now. Their transgressions have become even more frequent now that they have the Holy Sanctuary backing them. The Imperial Sword Sect barely involves itself in the Dynasty's affairs so we technically have no backer and can only grit our teeth in anger.."
By the end of Uncle He's rant, veins could be seen popping out of his head. Tang Yu looked down, but a cold flash ran through his eyes and he thought "This is weird, knowing how these 'Righteous Sects' work, they definitely are aiming for some benefit from destroying the Zhang Dynasty."
The Holy Sanctuary was another Righteous Sect but follows the ideals of their gods. They are proficient in healing and defense arts and gain a lot of money when lending their hand to others. Healing Arts are very rare and so the Holy Sanctuary 'lends' their help to others for a price.
Although the righteous sects are supposed to be against violence, the Holy Sanctuary promoting a country to go to war with another doesn't seem like something a sect that believes in god would do without a reason.
Uncle He then asked, "What do you plan to do now, I know that you can't cultivate..."
Before Uncle He could continue Tang Yu interrupted "I can cultivate, it was a false diagnosis. But can you keep this a secret?"
Tang Yu decided to tell his Uncle the truth because he trusted his uncle. Although there were many types of people in the world Uncle He was always the person to wear a smile even through the toughest conditions, even though he had a lack of talent in cultivation due to his attitude many soldiers around him were motivated to do there best.
Tang Yu also needed to be able to cultivate unrestrained in the house without his uncle wondering where the fluctuations of Qi were coming from.
Uncle He's mouth widened "You can cultivate? Why didn't you tell me sooner this is great news!"
Just like before, unregarding his injuries he bear-hugged Tang Yu, Uncle He was at the Middle Stage of the Blood Condensation Realm of Body Cultivation and Upper Stage of Qi Sensing Stage so his strength was in the upper tier of the Black Tiger Brigade. As a Soul Cultivator Tang Yu, he was able to spread his Soul Awareness a little outside his body and sense Uncle He's cultivation. Uncle He was proficient in Body Cultivation due to the Black Tiger Body Cultivation Arts but his Qi Cultivation was low because the best Qi manual he had access to was the basic Qi Manifestation Arts.
Uncle He talked to Tang Yu about a few more things before showing his room and leaving to let Tang Yu rest.
Tang Yu positioned himself on the bed and activated the God Eye to allow his consciousness into the Jade Dimension. When he entered he saw his stuff was under the tree and Master Tian sitting down with his eyes closed. When Tang Yu got closed Master Tian opened his eyes and said: "Are you ready to start cultivating the Soul Lighting Eye technique and the Illusion Shadow Step?"
Tang Yu nodded his head and so Master Tian gave a little insight "You have mastered the Grand Dao of the World and your moves must show that understanding. Right now you are at the minor understanding of the Dao. The Soul Lightning Eye Technique allows you to create Soul Lightning and using your God Eye directly attack your opponent's soul. You understood the Dao of Lightning so if you implant your understanding of lightning the power of the Soul Lightning will be much stronger. The same goes for the Illusion Shadow Step, there are two elements, the illusion, and the wind element. Although you don't have an understanding of the Illusion element yet you have the Wind element so implant your knowledge of the wind into the Illusion Shadow Step and make your speed even faster."
Tang Yu started to understand the use of the Dao, he started to remember his experience last time and how he used the Divine Beasts Martial Arts to understand the Grand Dao of the World. Using the experience he started combining his understanding of lightning element into the Soul Lightning Eye Technique and the wind element into the Illusion Shadow Step.
After a few hours, he mastered both techniques to the lower completion stage. He also practiced the Divine Beast Martial Arts and consolidated his understanding a little further.
When he used each of the Divine Beast Martial Arts moves it was like the real Divine Beast was really there. The Soul Lightning Eye Technique was terrifying as if he faced anyone with low attainments in the Soul would be immediately killed.
The Illusion Shadow Step Arts were also terrifying as he moved like a shadow in the night when the Arts were activated an Illusion would cover his body making him almost invisible and with the Wind Element, his speed allowed him to cross great distances of land in short amounts of time.
Of course, Tang Yu had to use a smaller version of every technique or else he would lose all his energy using only one move. After all, the 3 techniques were all Holy Rank Techniques.
When Tang Yu was done with the techniques, he started cultivating again. Like before Qi bombarded his soul and body and a stream of Qi entered his Dantian. A sliver of that Qi converted to Divine Power. But this time he didn't make a breakthrough, Tang Yu was confused "Why is my speed slower than before, even though my efficiency and experience are greater?"
Master Tian answered, "Breaking through 3 stages in one night was just pure luck, right now you are consolidating your realm and making up for the loss of purities due to the rapid cultivation speed. Even a genius has to take things slowly or else it would be harder to keep a stable foundation later."
Tang Yu smiled and shook his head "I was being too greedy, I am only 6 years old. I will consolidate my realm then read some books to find out what profession I want to join!"
