After Lucas vision became clear, he stood up and went to embrace his son. He was proud so that he had a son who could do the impossible.
"Never in my life have I heard that someone in the Late Mist Refinement Realm defeating a Peak Qi Condensation Realm expert." Lucas said with joy.
"I told you that I'm going to defeat and see now I've proven it to you dad.
Also weren't you the one who said I'm supposed to be in the Qi Condensation Realm before I can enter the Ancestral Tomb?
Guess what, I'm going to reach Qi Condensation Realm within a year." Armstrong said confidently.
"Let me tell you something son, though your cultivation speed is frightening but you shouldn't think that just by raising your cultivation level will make you stronger. There are a lot of things one needs to comprehend or understand to enable him or her to gain control over his or her own power.
For instance, if you are a fire cultivator, you need to be able to comprehend the will of fire to help you control fire elemental power and also to make your power increase.
And also make sure not to breakthrough to Core Formation Realm because if that happens, you wouldn't be able to enter the Ancestral Tomb." Lucas explained to his son.
When Armstrong heard what his father said, he knew that he should practice or learn techniques more to solidify his foundation than to always be thinking about breaking through of realms.
From that particular day, Lucas and his son trained together as of they were preparing for war.
Armstrong went through hellish training in the hands of his father.
Three years passed shortly in a twinkle of an eye.
When Armstrong turned 12 years, his father gave him a sword and a sword technique.
"The sword I'm giving you is one of the greatest treasures of the Arthur family which is called the Tyrant Killing Sword which has been passed from our ancestors to us to be given to the successors of this kingdom. And the sword technique I'm giving you is called the and it is Skyline Divine Sword Technique. I want you to always execute this sword technique with pride and honor but not with shame and fear." Lucas explained to Armstrong.
"Rest assured father because I'm not someone who will bow down his head in shame and crawl like a coward in front of my enemies." Armstrong said confidently.
"From the day you will step out of this cultivation chamber, you will have to prove that you are worthy of this sword and you are also worthy of bear the name Arthur." Lucas declared onto Armstrong
When Armstrong took the sword from his father, he felt like there was a connection between him and the sword.
"I Armstrong Wright Arthur, the son of King Lucas Arthur and the Prince of the Wyvern kingdom pledges to bring glory to the Arthur family and make the Wyvern kingdom prosper for eternity."
Armstrong declared.
"Good to hear that son."
Armstrong told his father that he was going to enter a close door cultivation for a long time so his father should not look for him anytime soon.
Back To The Wyvern Palace
"It's only left with two years for the election to be held and really sure that my cousin wouldn't be out of his seclusion by that time." Collins said to his wife Elisabeth.
"Why are you after something that not yours?
You know that it's only the direct descendants of the Ancestral Lord Arthur that can rule this kingdom. Although you are a descendant of the Ancestral Lord but you are not from the direct lineage so you are not worthy of ruling this kingdom." Elisabeth said angrily
"Why can't you see that I'm only doing this for us?
And also we can't let the people go astray just because their thoughtless king went into a damn cultivation seclusion leaving." He said
"And who said that the people are going astray?
Aren't all the people in the Wyvern kingdom trying their best to do something that will impress their king when he comes out of seclusion? Elisabeth asked furiously.
"I know that I'm not worthy of the throne and I'm also not from the direct lineage of the Ancestral Lord Arthur but I'm going to make sure that that law will change and I'm going bring the inheritance to our side by all means." Collins said determinedly as he left the room.
When Martin overheard what his father said to his mom, he felt bitter in his heart.
"So when is uncle Lucas and brother Armstrong going to come?" He asked himself
He didn't want to become the prince of the Wyvern kingdom because he knew that that position wasn't his but rather it belonged to Armstrong his cousin.
In The Iceland Kingdom
In the palace of Iceland Kingdom, King Alfred and King Walker brought their children to receive a special training in King Edwin's palace.
There was an ice pond in the Iceland palace called the Spiritual Ice-age Pond that help cultivators to temper their body and boost their cultivation speed.
"Motive for bringing our children here today is make them the strongest among their peers and for them to be dominant in the Ancestral Tomb and we all know to achieve this feast, it is the Iceland Kingdom's Spiritual Ice-age Pond that can help our children's cultivation improve and also help them in tempering their bodies." King Alfred explained.
"It's an honor for me to allow the princess of the Assar Kingdom and the prince of the Narnia Kingdom to train with son in Spiritual Ice-age Pond."
King Edwin said with a joyous voice.
"Then I guess we should bis goodbye to our children now and remember to send them back to us when they reach Qi Condensation Realm." Alfred said.
Back To The Cultivation Chamber
It had been three months but Armstrong hadn't broken through to the Qi Condensation Realm. It was then did he come to know that the higher your cultivation level, the harder it becomes to make a breakthrough from a minor realm to a major realm.
After seeing that he couldn't make a breakthrough to the Qi Condensation Realm at that moment, he woke up from the meditative trance and took the Skyline Divine Sword Technique and started comprehending it.
After 3 hours later, he entered into the meditative trance again after he finished comprehending the technique. Just like how the clone of himself in the meditative trance executed the Tiger Fury Technique to Armstrong, it did same with Skyline Divine Sword Technique.
Half a year passed but Armstrong still wasn't able to breakthrough to the Qi Condensation Realm and was stuck in the Peak Mist Refinement Realm.
One dangerous thing in cultivation is failing to breakthrough a minor realm to a major because you may never be able to make another breakthrough.
So when cultivators reach the bottleneck of their realm, they will try all the possible be not to fail breakthrough because not only will it affect their future cultivation but also it can cause their death.
Armstrong knew that he was at the bottleneck of of his realm and in order for him to breakthrough, he needed to use force.
He opened his dantians to the limit as he begun to absorb the Qi in the cultivation chamber like a whirlpool. When he noticed that his dantians were full, he still continued to suck more Qi to put pressure on his dantians.
Normally during cultivation, cultivators will have a good sensation and they will be in a calm state but that wasn't the same for Armstrong at the very moment because he thought he was going to burst or die because of the excessive pain he was in.
When he saw that he was at his limit, he pushed his realm with all the Qi in his dantians to help him make a breakthrough.
"Ahhhhh!!!" Armstrong screamed out of pain
"Booom!!!"
Armstrong had finally been able to enter Initiate Qi Condensation Realm with force.
After his breakthrough, he went unconscious because he was out of energy.
When Armstrong regained consciousness, he noticed that a week has already passed since he went unconscious.
"I never thought that breakthrough from a minor realm to a major realm would be that painful when using force." Armstrong said whiles shaking his head.
"It's only left with 6 months for the year to end and I can't just sit there without doing anything.
I think this is the best opportunity for me to familiarize myself with the Skyline Divine Sword Technique." He thought
He took his sword as he began to train intensively.
6 months later, Lucas went to check on his son because he hadn't his son for a whole year and was worried that Armstrong wasn't going to come out of his closed door cultivation.
As he entered Armstrong's room, he was shocked to see his 13 years old son yielding his sword like a master in sword art and what surprised him more was the aura behind every sword attack of his.
"Good morning son." Lucas greeted
"Good morning dad." Armstrong greeted back
"So how's things here?" Lucas asked.
"Nothing much, it's boring inside here." Armstrong said with a scowl
"Although it's boring inside here but I'm not going out until I enter Mid Qi Condensation Realm."
"So does that mean you are already in Initiate Qi Condensation Realm?" Lucas couldn't help but to ask.
"Of course dad I'm a man of my words and I promised you that I will breakthrough to Qi Condensation Realm in a year." Armstrong said with pride
When Lucas heard his son, he shook his heard will smile. He knew that his son was not a normal being. When ever he remembered what happened on the day his son was born, he would just shook his head and smile.
"I have a way which can help you breakthrough to Mid Qi Condensation Realm easily but after the breakthrough, you need to work or train hard to stabilize your realm." Lucas said to Armstrong
"And what exactly is that?" Armstrong asked.
"I will give you 4 level 3 Profound Mortal Pills you to help you breakthrough." He said
After saying that, Lucas took 4 pills from his porch and gave it to Armstrong.
After handling it to Armstrong, he left without saying word.
Armstrong knew that his father also wanted to go out that's why he gave him those pills so that he can breakthrough faster for them to leave the cultivation chamber.
Armstrong sat down and swallowed all the 4 pills as he begun to absorb the Qi in the pills to condense them in his dantians. After about an hour later, Armstrong saw that although he was closer to Mid Qi Condensation Realm but the Qi in the pills wouldn't be able to help him to accomplish that because the Qi in the pills were all most depleted.
If it was for normal cultivators, they would have been able to breakthrough two minor realm with that 4 pills.
Seeing that the pills weren't adequate, he started to absorb the Qi in cultivation chamber instead.
After cultivating for some hours, he was able to push his realm to Mid Qi Condensation Realm.
He noticed that every time he made a breakthrough, his dantians seems to evolve.
"Now that I'm in Mid Qi Condensation Realm, it's time to go out and take a look." He said to himself.
Armstrong ran to his fathers room and knocked on the door several times.
"Bung!! bung!! bung!!…"
"Mr. Lucas Arthur, it's time for us to go out."
Armstrong said with a grin
When Lucas came out of his room, he immediately held Armstrong's hands as they ran towards the exit of the cultivation chamber.
