Ancient Strengthening Techniques
Chapter 122 - Qi Xiantian!
” How did this happen? ” In a short time of negligence, Wenren Wu-shuang's sword was moved by Qing Shui's movements.
”Again!”
This time, Wenren Wu-shuang persisted for ten steps before he was once again defeated by Qing Shui!
” You have broken through and reached Xiantian! ” Wenren Wu-shuang looked towards Qing Shui while he frowned and asked.
” Mmmm, I just broke through not too long ago. ’
Wenren Wu-shuang felt that it was unrealistic. He doesn't seem to have reached 17? What kind of logic was it because there was a 16-year-old Xiantian cultivator there? And to think that/that he had also easily defeated himself, who was a Xiantian cultivator who had taken two Clear Wind fruits.
”Congratulations! If others find out that/that you are now a Xiantian cultivator, many of them will choose to bang their head against the wall. Even I am a little jealous of you! ” Wenren Wu-shuang smiled brightly after going through a brief moment of surprise!
’’ Hehe, You did indeed promise to wait for me for ten years, and that/that if I break through to Xiantian within ten years, you will approve of my pursuit. Hehe! ” Qing Shui featuring hungry wolves.
Wenren Wu-shuang was momentarily stunned, before he said self-mockingly, ” Right. Funny to think about it. I even said that/that I would wait for you for ten years, thinking that/that it was fast enough for you to be able to reach Xiantian within ten years. Who would have thought that/that you only need half a year. Semiannual. Should I call you a genius, or a demon? ’
Wenren Wu-shuang smiled curiously as she looked towards Qing Shui!
’’ You'd better call me husband! ’’ Qing Shui rubbed his nose and said seriously!
’’ You are naughty. I only promise to let you chase after me if you break through and reach Xiantian, and win against me in a fight. I can give you the right to pursue me, but whether I agree or not will be a thing at all. ” Wenren Wu-shuang was stunned, as she lowered her head and spoke in a joyous and blaming tone.
Qing Shui smiled, but did not continue. Suddenly, he remembered that his/her Xiantian Qi was not a normal milky white color. Now is a good opportunity to ask him about it.
Qing Shui quickly used his Qi which extended by an inch and was ground yellow. ” Wu-shuang, why does my Xiantian Qi have a different color than the others? ’
Wenren Wu-shuang looked at the thick and earth-yellow colored Qi and stood on the spot. It took him a while to regain his mind and he said, ” To think that/it was Xiantian Earth Elemental Qi! ’’
” Xiantian Earth Elemental Qi? You mean even a Xiantian Qi cultivator would be split into five elements? ” Qing Shui is aware and knows five elements: metal, wood, water, fire, and earth.
Wenren Wu-shuang gave Qing Shui a strange look before he smiled and said. ” You really are a lucky bastard. Most people's Xiantian Qi was not related to the five elements. Take it yourself, for example. My Qi will not be classified in the five elements. Only martial techniques of the legendary level or higher would be classified into the characteristics of the five elements. ’
Qing Shui was stunned when he mentioned the legend. Martial techniques were classified in the 4 Houtian, Xiantian, Legendary and Divine realms. Each region is further classified into 4 classes: Kingdom, Mystical, Earth, and Heaven. Qing Shui wouldn't be surprised if the Ancient Strengthening Technique was a technique from the Legendary Realm. He could only speculate before. Now that it was affirmed, he felt a little happy, a little surprised, a little proud, but overall it was just a very pleasant feeling.
It was just that he wasn't sure what field his Ancient Strengthening Technique was in. But, even if it was a Royal Houtian grade technique, he would still survive in it, let alone now that/it was confirmed that/it was at least in the Legendary world. The difference in techniques from different realms was huge. A Xiantian Mystic grade technique could never compare to a Xiantian Earth grade technique. Of course, there would still be situations where geniuses or monsters were able to train nonsense techniques to an unbelievable level.
’What are the characteristics of Earth Elemental Xiantian Qi?’ ’Qing Shui looked towards the smiling Wenren Wu-shuang and asked because he didn't really understand.
’Each type of Xiantian Qi element has its own characteristics. The characteristic of metal lies in its sharpness, for fire it is its attack; for water it is its fluidity; for wood it is its restoration, and for the earth it will be its sturdiness and defense! ” Wenren Wu-shuang picked up the wooden sword he dropped and slowly explained.
’I know some basic characteristics of the five elements. But what about the specifications? ” Qing Shui is eager to know the specifics of how it can be used and its prowess.
After hearing Qing Shui's insistence, he couldn't help but glance towards her. Qing Shui also knew that/that he was in too much of a hurry, and smiled awkwardly. ’That's all because I was in too much of a hurry. Oh, dear elder, apologize and share your knowledge with the little me. ’
” Element Earth You Xiantian Qi increases the physical defense of your body by two folds, and can reduce half Xiantian Qi of the same realm, while also returning half to the opponent. It meant that/that when your Xiantian Qi collided with someone else who was in the same realm as you, the impact of the other party's Xiantian Qi would be reduced by half, while you would increase by half. Now you understand? I'm sure you're happy to hear this. ” Wenren Wu-shuang said flirtatiously.
Qing Shui was so happy, so much so that he was stunned. ”Cabul. Is there anything more obscene than this? Mmm, right, there are still four other elements. It is also great to listen to and learn more. ” Qing Shui thought to himself.
Wenren Wu-shuang looked at Qing Shui in amusement and continued after Qing Shui raised his head. ’’I know what you want to ask. I know a little and can share it with you to kill some boredom. ’
’’ Xiantian Qi Metal Element increases sharpness by one fold, and is able to break through harder defenses by one fold. It also increases the sharpness of the slashes of metal objects! Fire Elemental Xiantian Qi increased one's destructive power as well as a higher rate of burning by one fold. Among the five elements, it could inflict the greatest damage. The attack from the Xiantian Qi Water Element would be accompanied by a 30% resistance, as well as a reduction in Xiantian Qi expenditure by half. It is the most eternal! ’’Wenren Wu-shuang said all this in one breath.
” How about Elemental Wood Xiantian Qi? ” Seeing that/it Wenren Wu-shuang had stopped, Qing Shui was unable to resist that impulse, and raised a question.
” Xiantian Qi Wood Element increases one's defense by 30%, and increases one's recovery skill by 3 times! Xiantian Qi was also able to help heal wounds, and was the most important condition for becoming a top alchemist! Of course, this is just for reference. There were too few who were able to train techniques that were of the Legendary realm or higher. I myself only found this information in the ancient records! ’
Wenren Wushang smiled gently, his light smile was soothing to look at. ” The contradiction of the five elements is just a concept, but it is not absolute. For example, fire and water, water can extinguish fire, but it can also be evaporated by heat. In front of absolute strength, there was no concept of weakness and contradiction! ’
Afterwards, Qing Shui and Wenren Wu-shuang tried Qing Shui's Xiantian Qi Earth Element. As Wenren Wu-shuang said, it could fend off a half-attack to an opponent. Originally, the Xiantian Qi of the two Xiantian cultivators who cultivated normal techniques were unable to clash. But, when faced with the Elemental Xiantian Qi, not only would they clash, but the opponent would suffer heavy losses.
As for whether the physical defense was twice from the beginning, Qing Shui paid no heed to it. After breaking through to the 4th Heavenly Layer, his physical defense had increased by 10 times. The technique called Wenren Wu-shuang was probably the lowest level technique. Qing Shui did not want to think any further. The more he thought about it, the more agitated he became.
After a while, Wenren Wu-gou also appeared. It was nice that/it Qing Shui wanted to consult about the cost of the property in Hundred Miles City. The Qing Clan wanted to place the couple's new room in the Qing Clan Medicine Shop. But since Qing Shui had the money, he decided to make marriage a grander affair.
’’ Grandpa did not even give money to support. He probably knows I have money! ” Qing Shui feels this is very heart-warming. He likes this feeling.
” Aunt Wu-gou, roughly how much does it cost to buy a small house near Qing ClaToko Medicine n.? ” Qing Shui looked towards Wenren Wu-gou and asked ‘ politely’.
’’ Pftt! ’’ Wenren Wu-shuang laughed out loud, which was a rare sight. Qing Shui was almost blinded by his sparkling white teeth. Her white eyes and white teeth were a beautiful beauty!
” You ... This person must have tried to anger me on purpose! ” Wenren Wu-gou said with a laugh.
”Just kidding. Besides, you are so young and beautiful, why are you afraid of this? I'm sure you're not very polite. You are a confident, mature, and knowledgeable girl! ” Qing Shui looked amused at Wenren Wu-gou who was ripe like a peach, as if he was so tender that it was slightly squeezed out of the juice.
” Alright, I know you would say such a thing. What do you need a home for? To hide the beauty? Who are you planning to hide? ” Wenren Wu-gou asks the next three questions.
Qing Shui laughed bitterly. ’’ One of my brothers is getting married next month. Don't know why, but the old master delegated this task to me. ’
After a short moment of being stunned, Wenren Wu-gou and Wenren Wu-shuang laughed out loud. ’’ Your Elders are also trying to train you in taking responsibility. But, it is also quite interesting to make you handle this matter. You don't even have your own experience! ’
Wenren Wu-gou laughed as he said this!
Qing Shui rubbed his nose. ” I want you both to show my face and attend the event. So, how much would it cost to buy your small 2-sized house near the Qing Clan Medicine Shop? ’
’’ About 350.000. It just so happens that I have one in the area that is not bad. What if you give a gift to you? ’’Wenren Wu-gou smiling charming.
’’ Even though you are so rich, why did you give it to me? You want to make me a gigolo? ” Qing Shui looked at Wenren Wu-gou in surprise, giving a face that seemed to say ‘You better not do something weird’.
” Think of this as a token of appreciation for helping Wu-shuang to detoxify toxins. What do you think? ” Wenren Wu-gou smiled gently, and looked at Qing Shui without blinking. He looks very sincere and willing.
Qing Shui was unable to continue joking anymore and said, ” It was my free will to help detoxify the poison for Wushang. You should know that/that some people are very willing to help some others without asking for any payment. It brings joy to help willingly, even though there is no excuse or repayment. ’’
Wenren Wu-shuang looked at Qing Shui with her pretty eyes. The smiling expression in his eyes was amazing and intoxicating.
”Of course I know. Because I'm that kind of person too. ” Wenren Wu-gou smiled and replied.
Hearing this, Qing Shui felt strange. He could not understand the meaning behind Wenren Wu-gou's words. He wanted to understand him as the man Wenren Wu-gou liked was himself. But, is that possible?
” If you are not willing, then how about we do this, You take the house, and if you think about me in the future, then you can give me some good stuff. For example, I can do with some medicinal pills that can sustain one's youth, or the Xiantian Golden Pellet. ” Wenren Wu-gou said casually as if making a joke.
Qing Shui thought about it and nodded his head. ’’ I will buy you Xiantian Golden Pellet in the future. ’’ Qing Shui smiling happily. While the money he had was enough to get a house, there were still many other things he had to buy.
” Let Wu-shuang accompany you to check the house to see if you are satisfied with it! ” Wenren Wu-gou gave Qing Shui a huge bunch of keys!
’’ Qing Shui, make me some fish and your black turtle. I have a wish for them, but since you are not around, I am too ashamed to head! ” Wenren Wu-shuang said as she came out, stuck out her soft little tongue and licked her lips involuntarily.
Qing Shui stared intently at Wenren Wu-shuang. He did not expect that/that such a graceful woman would behave like that so as to arouse others.
