The highly anticipated day arrived unexpectedly quickly.
The day when disciples can exchange their contribution points for treasures and artifacts is highly anticipated. This is because they believe that no matter how strong they are, obtaining high-grade techniques and durable artifacts is essential.
"Senior brothers let us go," said a young miss with a beautiful blue pupil.
What are you going to exchange your point for this time? She asked.
"I am thinking of a movement technique, the technique I am cultivating now requires an agile skill to unleash it full power," he replied.
"Oh… that is very a good idea," she said, acting cute, hmm a beauty to behold.
"What about you?" she asked her other senior brother.
"As for me, all I need now is a good sword. I am currently practicing a sword technique and all the swords I had gotten so far with me had all been damaged since they could not withhold impact, so I require a new one which can withstand the impact of the technique I am cultivating," said the second brother.
"Hmm, that is good, and I wish senior brother's success in finding what you require," she said.
"Same here, junior sister".
… … … …
"Excuse me! Excuse me!!" (passing through).
"Good day to you all," said an old-looking man out loud.
"Good day, elder," they all replied in sync.
"As you all may know, today is the day you all get to exchange your points for at least a secret manual, fighting technique, various weapons of your choices and cultivation resources, and I also want to believe you all know the rules?" he said, looking around.
Anyway, the rule states this, you cannot take anything that exceeds your points and also stealing in the treasure hall is highly prohibited. If caught you will be seriously punished and if grievous enough, it might lead to banishment.
Lastly, a new array has been set by the sect master, and its function is to automatically transport you out of the treasure hall after an hour, so I advise you to choose fast and wisely.
"I wish you success, you all can go in now," he concluded with his speech.
"Ok, thank you very much, elder," they all said and rushed in to the treasure pavilion.
…
"What exactly is going on today, senior sister?" Xuan ping asked.
"Today is the day disciples of the sect exchange their points with cultivation resources, secret techniques and weapons in the sect."
"Oh… I see".
"Come to think about it, you don't really seem to know much about what is going on in the sect … Anyway, the sect master calls for you," said Xu xin.
"Sect master? Hope all is okay, it has been long since I've been summoned by the sect master".
"Just go, you will know when you get there," said Xu xin.
"Ok then I will take my leave then, senior sister Xu," said Xuan ping.
(Bows and leave).
…
Sect master's abode.
As Xuan ping was about to knock, he heard the sect master order him in.
"Come in, Xuan ping," the sect master's voice resounded as he backed Xuan ping with his hands folded backwards.
"Yes sect master," said Xuan ping as he opened the door in, it seemed he really was expecting me, Xuan ping thought.
I really would be ashamed whenever I meet your father because I wasn't able to solve the problem of his only son despite my promise.
"Hmm… I heard of your contribution to the treasure pavilion and also of your feat with the elder, you really have grown to be silently mischievous".
"Do you know of your father's dying wish?" The sect master asked.
"My father?" Said Xuan ping, as if not sure what he heard.
"Yes," The sect master replied.
This situation is really awkward, Xuan ping thought.
I really am not affiliated with the sect master, and now he suddenly began talking about my father, how does he expect me to know about his dying wish when I have not even set my eyes on him?
"He says to cultivate his son to become a great martial artist and let him avenge me," said the sect master. "And now I have failed his trusts and expectations".
"I never knew my father, and now he left me a dying wish? What a burden," he thought.
"This is what your father left for you," said the sect master as he stretched out his hand to give him.
"Wow! Just a letter?".
This definitely is not looking nice, Xuan ping began to get baffled.
"I'm sorry, that is all I can tell you for now. The main reason I called for you is to let you know we are sending you to an Old Taoist named jun For now, only him can find a solution concerning your issues, so you will be leaving tomorrow, go back and arrange, this is where you can find him," said the sect master as he gave him a slip.
"Thank you, sect master," he bowed.
Now you can take your leave, the sect master still backed Xuan ping, more like he was ashamed to look at him directly.
LATE AT NIGHT
After packing up all night, he laid on his bed and started to think.
I hope that old Taoist said by the sect master will be able to find a solution. If so, I also will have to work hard on my end, and concerning my father's death, I can do nothing about it, at least not while I'm this weak.
"Not until I'm strong enough," he proclaimed. So all my hopes are on this old Taoist.
Finally, Xuan ping was about to sleep, at least, not until he began to feel some rash movements all happening inside his body.
This tingling feeling, wait! What is this tingling feeling all over my body, it feels like my physique is changing drastically.
"Aww, so painful," Xuan ping groaned in pain. "And, why do I have to pass through this pain again?".
"Argh! It hurts" (Xuan ping breathing heavily), although this took longer than before, but it finally had subsided, why does it seem like I've gotten a bit taller and more muscular?
"Brother Xuan, are you in?".
"Yes! And you can come in," said Xuan ping.
As Xu xin entered into the room, she sat and looked towards Xuan ping, what she saw made her perplexed.
"Brother Xuan, is it my eyes? Or have you grown taller and muscular in just a day? Any way, I heard you will be leaving by tomorrow," said Xu xin.
"Yes, Senior sister Xu," said Xuan ping.
She bit her lips in regret… I hope you won't forget me.
"I promise I won't forget you, you will be the only girl in my mind… I'm sorry that's not what I meant," Xuan ping tried to cover it up immediately.
She chuckled… It is okay, she said while blushing, "I had always liked you since the beginning and I will always".
(The atmosphere changed, and they cuddled for a while)
"Senior sister Xu I promise to come back for you once I'm done".
"Ok brother Xuan, are you hungry? I made some oatmeal for you".
"Thank you so much, senior sister Xu," said Xuan ping as he munched on it vigorously.
"Come on, junior brother, drink it slowly".
(They smiled at each other)
"Aren't you going to eat too, sister Xu". He said.
"You don't have to worry, I have already eaten, have some more".
"Thanks so much, sister Xu," said Xuan ping happily.
"Ok junior brother".
(As soon as she left, he closed the door).
Yeah, it seems I was correct… What I felt that time was definitely QI, I can feel the surrounding QI definitely I can cultivate now.
Wow!… It is time for a change, let me try to grasp the QI around me first… He sat in a cross leg form and started to meditate attracting the QI towards him while his dantian began to form little by little until it's got a bit bigger, along with enhanced perceptions.
"Wow!" Xuan ping exclaimed again.
He stood up and shouted for joy, not long, the spatial ring began to resonate and start to become unbearable for him, so he infused his QI into the spatial ring then he found himself inside a large confined space.
"Wow!" So big it even comes with an inner dimension space in it, there seems to be more to this place.
It even has a cultivation abode, "I will check it out later, aren't does the manuals I found alongside the spatial ring and I thought it had gone missing or taken by someone, well, it seems luck is on my side".
Xuan ping got attracted by a dazzling light emitting
from a sword.
He got closer and tried removing it but couldn't, it seems I'm still too weak to access anything here except from the money… he-he, I'm rich.
Anyway, I will start by cultivating the heaven secret movement in case, since I'm not strong yet.
(He left the dimension and slept happily for the first time).
★★★★★★
"Xiao Feng".
"Yes master".
"It's time for you to cultivate the HEAVEN SWORD PLAY and HEAVEN SLAYING SLASH," he said as a sigh escaped how mouth.
"Master, you've never allowed me to cultivate the manual, why now?"
"Hmm, I will say it once and never let me hear it from your mouth to anyone," said Xiao feng's master.
"Yes master".
The former emperor of lingwu's continent, Ye Bai Yi, came across four heavenly divine techniques by chance, The Heaven defying law, Heaven secret movement, Heaven sword play and Heaven slaying slash.
After discovering that the heaven defying law and heaven secret movement were complementary, he made the decision to cultivate them. As a result, he became the most powerful emperor on the continent. However, upon finding out that his own brother was plotting against him, he sent me a letter exposing his brother's plans, along with the remaining two manuals. He wanted to ensure that they would fall into the hands of someone deserving.
With the creation of an inheritance for the two remaining manuals, he entrusted me with the task of watching over the successors and training them to prevent any future chaos caused by his brother. He had predicted his own death, and wanted to ensure that his legacy and power did not fall into the wrong hands. Now that the remaining two manuals have resurfaced, it is important to continue to keep watch over the successors and ensure that they are prepared to wield the power and responsibility that comes with them.
"Ok master, but I still don't know why you have never allowed me to cultivate any technique and only multiplications of QI," said Xiao feng.
There is only one criterion and that is to abolish any other cultivation before cultivation the heavenly divine techniques, they do not co-exist with other techniques.
In essence, it is not worthwhile to hone any other technique because it would eventually have to be abandoned. This is because heavenly techniques cannot coexist in a body with another technique. Furthermore, for the multiplication of QI, you need to cultivate a large amount of QI for the heavenly techniques. With that being said, you may take your leave as that is all I have to share on this matter.
"Thank you, master," said Xiao feng. He bowed to his master and took his leave.
★★★★
Yawns, Xuan ping woke up in the morning having a swollen feeling, "what a beautiful day to embark on a journey," he said, smiling to himself.
"Brother Xuan, it is time to leave," said Xu xin feeling sad because his absence would leave her emotionally crippled.
"I will miss you sister Xu," said Xuan ping looking at Xu xin, more like he couldn't leave her alone, she had been the only one who have always been there for him when disposed by others, sorrowful parting with her like this.
Tears started streaming down her cheeks as she lost control of her emotions.
"Goodbye sect master, goodbye elders".
"Take care of yourself throughout the journey and make sure to take cover at night."
"Yes sect master."
(He looked at Xu xin for the last time and left)
