Chapter 4 - Ancient Strengthening Techniques
The next day, just as dawn was breaking, Qing Shui woke up naturally. She noticed that Qing Yi was sitting by her bedside, holding her hand. Signs of worry and fatigue could be seen on her face, even her delicate and beautiful eyes had traces of blood in them!
After realizing that Qing Shui was awake, Qing Yi hugged him with a happy expression on her face.
“Shui'er, you finally regained consciousness. Are you all right? Is there any discomfort ?! ” Qing Yi excitedly asked.
"Dear mother .." Qing Shui gently called out, his heart filled with gratitude. Knowing that Qing Yi had stayed up all night only to accompany her tugging at the strings of her heart as bitterness filled her heart.
As she called out, Qing Yi could feel there was a hint of grievance and regret in her voice. In this world, as a man, if you can't hold yourself back against others, then no matter how much money you have, you'll still be trash! Even those with low cultivation will have the right to trample you. This dog-eating-dog world just follows the simple logic of 'the power of making right'.
Qing Yi hugged her son tightly, feeling that she had somehow let him down.
“Mother, sleep. You must be very tired after being awake all night. " Qing Shui could only adopt a childlike way of speaking in an attempt to persuade Qing Yi to sleep. Even so, Qing Yi felt warmth in her heart and knew that Qing Shui's intelligence was far above the norm. It was a pity that he could not cultivate. If not for that, based on his high level of understanding, he would have been a genius. Not only that, in the end he was the child born of himself and the man ..
But now.. Sigh .. There is no point in regret ..
In the end, she was still persuaded by Qing Shui and obediently lay on the bed. Just as Qing Shui wanted to get off the bed to make room for Qing Yi, he reached out and hugged his son. Qing Shui leaned against his chest and gently lay in his mother's arms.
Qing Yi immediately fell asleep. After all, he was awake all night and very tired. Seeing that Qing Shui was fine, he was finally able to relax and fall asleep.
After waiting for Qing Yi to fall asleep, Qing Shui lightly stepped out of the room, enthusiasm slowly filling his heart. Now, he was no longer the trash he used to be! He felt that he had undergone a miraculous transformation. Perhaps now.he could become like the others and start the path of cultivation. It didn't matter that he was a little older than the others when they started, as long as he had an unquenchable will to succeed, then no matter how many hurdles there were before him, it didn't matter, he won't stumble!
Qing Shui wanted to test his hypothesis. As he stepped out of the Qing Mansion, he started running at high speed. At this moment, his heart was engulfed in anxiety, he was worried that everything that happened would turn into an illusion, and his dream of cultivating would once again be shattered.
With just a single breath, he managed to run half the distance to the top of the mountain. Even though he was panting, he did not feel as short of breath, as in the past. There is an incredible difference when compared to before! He felt that since last night, his body had undergone a phenomenal change. After pondering over it, he guessed that it must be because of the Yin-Yang image now embedded in his sea of consciousness!
Qing Shui closed his eyes, slowly entering a mediating state. His soul gradually went to his sea of consciousness where he saw the Yin-Yang symbol again. The Yin-Yang Symbol rotated nonstop, emitting an endless stream of energy, slowly changing Qing Shui's body and organs.
During his unconscious yesterday, a lot of information regarding foundation building and strengthening techniques flowed into his mind. He has decided there and then he will use it to strengthen his constitution. Moreover, until now, she no longer had the fragile and delicate body she had before. The Yin-Yang symbol in his sea of consciousness was constantly giving him energy, slowly changing his body. He was certain that in addition to his current physique, by practicing the Ancient Strengthening Technique diligently, he would not need too much time before the quality of his body became stronger than ordinary cultivators.
Qing Shui tidied up the various information in his mind and decided to focus all his attention on mastering body strengthening techniques! The most important point of reinforcement techniques lies in having a solid foundation. Toughness of the body and bones. As long as the quality of his body was strong enough, there would basically be no difference between him and the other cultivators.
Strengthening techniques formed the basis of a cultivator, the techniques that appeared in Qing Shui's mind were one of the most ancient strengthening techniques ever created by mankind. It could even allow cultivators who cultivated it to its peak to clash with gods and demons. It was not wrong to say that all reinforcement techniques had traces of their origin coming from the Ancient Strengthening Technique that Qing Shui planned to practice. It is no exaggeration to say that this technique is one of the strongest techniques!
Practicing the Ancient Strengthening Technique could allow a cultivator to establish his constitution. The effect was somewhat similar to the seed-sized Yin-Yang symbol rotating inside him. The Ancient Strengthening Technique can also nourish bones and marrow, perfect organs in the body, eventually developing muscles to be soft to the touch, yet at the same time also able to rival the strongest steel and iron!
This is what is meant by reinforcement techniques. They can even increase the vitality of practitioners!
Qing Shui tried to recall the details of the Ancient Strengthening Technique. It seemed that he could do it easily, confirming the fact that he now had a eidetic memory! The Yin-Yang Symbol was also intertwined with him, continuously rotating within his sea of consciousness!
Qing Shui found a secluded place and went there to practice the Ancient Strengthening Technique. In order to practice it, one does not need to mediate. Cultivators only needed to calm their hearts and slowly twist the Qi within their bodies.
Qing Shui began to analyze and fumble his way through the cultivation method of the Ancient Strengthening Technique. After trying to do so for some time, he was still unable to form a single strand of Qi. Qing Shui persisted because he knew that Rome was not built in one day. If it were that simple to become powerful, the world would be filled with countless experts!
Qing Shui continued to persist and continued to attempt to form strands of Qi repeatedly. Every time he fails, it just motivates him to try harder and harder.
Gradually, Qing Shui began to feel numb. He had tried this for what seemed like immortality, but he was still unable to form that first strand of Qi!
After an hour had passed, Qing Shui opened his eyes and realized that it was almost noon. He knew that he had to go home soon, because he did not want Qing Yi to worry about him. Despite standing in this remote location all morning, Qing Shui wasn't tired at all! He started to slowly run back to the Qing Mansion.
After arriving at the Qing Mansion, Qing Shui realized that the training sessions for the Qing Clan's younger generation had not ended yet. Now, upon seeing them practice close combat skills and swordplay, he felt nothing. The previous feeling of envy and jealousy he had gotten while watching it had now been replaced with the determination to become stronger than them!
After entering the courtyard, he met Qing Luo. “Qing Shui, are you out to play again? You should rest more at home and take care of your body back to health! " Qing Luo gently reprimanded him.
"Grandfather, I just took a walk near the entrance of the Qing Mansion, don't worry about me, I'm fine!" Qing Shui knew that his grandfather was really worried about him.
“En, you should be more careful. Today, I sent someone to Hundred Miles City to purchase a stalk of 100-year-old purple ginseng. We will boil and extract its essence so that you can enjoy it for dinner later! " Qing Luo said with an affectionate look in her eyes.
Qing Luo was also able to tell that Qing Shui had incredible intelligence. Every sentence was spoken clearly and with intention, he was almost like an adult in terms of mentality. It was a waste that he was unable to cultivate .. Qing Luo sighed ..
