Qing Shui couldn't understand why the Xiao Clan didn't take any action. Did they leave the Yan Clan or did they have ulterior motives? Qing Shui couldn't wrap his head around this. He was convinced that/that the people of Xiao Clan were still in their residence and did not take any action.


Qing Shui had left Fire Bird patrolling the sky from the start, especially to monitor the movements of the Xiao Clan. Firebird, which has evolved and thus has ” Crown ‘, has gained better psychic abilities. It could report everything it saw to Qing Shui in a very large area. Qing Shui didn't know if the other people's mounts had such abilities, but the history books had mentioned that/it Beast Tamers had this kind of ability. A Beast Tamer that possessed multiple mythical beasts would have a wider field of vision, making it the best at hunting and escaping.


This was something Qing Shui discovered later on. It was a pity that he could not achieve the effect of a shared vision. Otherwise, it would be a very formidable skill in his arsenal!


Since the sky was starting to darken and there was no activity from the Xiao Clan, Qing Shui decided to go to the Yan Clan tomorrow. He was already tired physically and mentally today, especially the latter. After all, it was a grudge that he had held for 20 years.


The moon in the sky of Yan City was hidden by dark clouds. Shortly after, the snow began to fall as if cleaning up the blood that was shed during the day. The end of the year was getting closer and this was the second heavy snowfall, it was only a little more than a day between the two.


The Realm of the Violet Jade Immortal!


No matter what, Qing Shui would never abandon his cultivation. This was insurance when it came to establishing his roots in the World of the Nine Continents. In this world where strength is paramount, strength is everything, and that is insurance for everything.


If the Qing Clan had the strength, Qing Yi and the entire Qing Clan would not suffer such hardships, nor would they have to wait for 20 years to come to Yan City …..


If the Yan Clan had power, this would not have happened in the first place ……


Qing Shui was circulating the Ancient Strengthening Technique which slowly advanced like a heavy mountain. Slowly but powerfully, it circulated cycle by cycle. The heavy burden made him feel as if he was pushing a mountain.


The Ancient Strengthening Technique flowed throughout his body, continuously refining his meridians, dantian, bones, and at the same time, nourishing the five organs and six viscera with warmth.


The image of Yin Yang in the sea of his consciousness was still spinning slowly as usual, continuously strengthening Qing Shui's spirit and warming his body.


The Ancient Strengthening Technique continuously strengthened and strengthened Qing Shui's body. The Yin Yang image within his sea of consciousness gleamed in a golden light, cheering up Qing Shui's body and increasing his vitality and endurance. It is also considered to be another form of Yin Yang balance.


……….


Qing Shui opened his eyes as his body trembled slightly. His face was smiling small. The Ancient Strengthening Technique had entered cycle 137 and he could feel his body once again being strengthened a little more.


Qing Shui really wished he was at the peak of the Fifth Heaven Layer and could reach the 199th cycle. It was not like he had never thought about breaking through to the Sixth Heavenly Layer, it was because he was well aware that/it was an extremely challenging task. Misty Hall Palace Misty Hall mistress was her chance to break through to the Fifth Heaven Layer. It was a beautiful dream with a sea of flowers that allowed the Realm Violet Jade Immortal to level up to the Fifth Level and concoct the Beauty Pellet from then on. It was a special moment that allowed him to break through to the Fifth Heaven Layer realm.


He did not know when he could breakthrough to this Heavenly Sixth Layer or even any chance that would allow him to do so!


The Frenzied Bull's Power!


Mountains are Not Fixed!


Natural Energy!


…… He circulated everything at the same time in order to cultivate more time efficiently!


Fist Taichi!


Basic Sword Technique!


Nine Waves Great Golden Buddha Palm!


Art Chasing!


…………………


Qing Shui practiced the cultivation arts he needed to practice one after another. He never loosened it. He had only spent more time on the Ancient Strengthening Technique because it was the most basic to Qing Shui.


He then slowly circulated the Ancient Strengthening Technique into both of his hands. Immediately, his hand turned a little translucent. He was currently cultivating Saintly Hands.


He could feel spiritual qi flowing in both of his hands at this moment. It is very important for the Sacred Hand to have such great power and flow of spiritual qi. Cultivating the Sacred Hand was all about circulating the Ancient Strengthening Technique according to the circulation route to warm and moisturize both hands. All he had to do was keep this cultivation art active.


Since the first time he activated the Sacred Hand, there had been no changes. Now, they're getting warm and humid. They are accompanied by a luster of clear color. Ever since the Ancient Strengthening Technique broke through to the Fifth Heaven Layer, the Holy Hand's spiritual qi had also become stronger.


Although Qing Shui had never felt any breakthrough from her, there was a significant increase in her strength. This was quite satisfying for Qing Shui, because all he cared about was the increase in strength rather than the breakthrough. As long as his strength continued to grow, it didn't matter if he achieved a breakthrough.


Breakthroughs only occur in situations when one cannot progress further, and they are necessary for further improvement. Just like the Ancient Strengthening Technique, if one was unable to achieve a breakthrough at the peak of the Fourth Heaven Layer, then his strength would not increase anymore no matter how hard he cultivated.


…………


The Primal Chaotic Divine Needle Technique!


Alchemy!


………….


There was still plenty of time when he was done with his cultivation. After Qing Shui had some food and rested, he walked around the Realm of the Violet Jade Immortal. He felt very satisfied when he saw the lush medicinal plants growing everywhere. They should be around 600 years old by now. Time travel in the world had improved greatly after nature was upgraded to the Fifth Level.


In two more years or so, this medicinal plant would be 1,000 years old. Qing Shui became excited at the thought of how much this 1,000-year-old medicinal herb would be worth ……


He had even planned patches for 2,000 and 3,000 years of medicinal plants ……


The number of fish species in the pond increased, and Qing Shui's vision blurred from their varieties. There were more colorful fish, shrimp, turtles, crabs, and clams after nature reached the Fifth Level. He even saw a water snake appear quickly across the coral reef.


The giant Nine Chests sitting in the middle of the pond had a height measured from the bottom of the pond all the way to the surface, stretching in the air. Full of vitality, it circled the entire pond around it and increased the growth of all living things in the water.


The second Flower of Life also flourished, and the third flower bud appeared. Yet Qing Shui knew that/it still needed about two more years before it would bloom.


The Flower of Life was filled with vitality. It was a magical flower under Heaven. With a single blossom, it would be able to increase vitality and improve the quality of the plants within a radius of 100 meters to 10%


A 10% increase in quality equates to one-year maturity. For a 1,000-year-old medicinal herb, a 10% increase in quality would be an additional 100 years of maturity!


With two flowers in bloom, it will be able to increase vitality and improve the quality of plants within a radius of 200 meters by 10% ……


With five blooming flowers, it will be able to increase vitality and improve the quality of plants within a radius of 500 meters by 10% ……


With six blooming flowers, it will be able to increase vitality and improve the quality of plants within a radius of 600 meters by 20% ……


……………………


With nine flowers in bloom, it would be able to increase vitality and improve the quality of the plants within a radius of 900 meters by 50%!


With ten blooming flowers, it will be able to increase vitality and improve the quality of the plants within a radius of 2,000 meters by 100% ……


The Flowers of Life is also known as the Flowers of Eternity. The petals will never wither. The first bloom takes 100 years, the second bloom takes 200 years, the third bloom takes 300 years....... The ninth bloom takes 900 years, and the tenth bloom takes 2,000 years!


The Flowers of Life is a magical flower under Heaven. Directly consuming the first flower will extend the life of a human up to 10 years.


Directly consuming a second flower will extend life for 20 years.


Directly consuming the third flower will extend life for 30 years.


Directly eat the fourth flower will ……


Directly consuming the ninth flower will extend the lifespan to 90 years.


Directly consuming the tenth flower will extend the life of up to 200 years.


Only one Flower of Life could be consumed per person. Regardless of which flower bloomed, one could only consume one flower out of all of those flowers.


………….


This miraculous Flower of Life had medicinal properties similar to the Great Revitalizing Pellet, and it reminded him of that pellet. Qing Shui was skeptical of the effects of this second level King Grade medicinal pill. He had a feeling that/it ‘Great Revitalize Pellet’ this may not have the effect of increasing all the strength by only 20% as it is usually the allowed grade, but even more so or with additional special effects.


It was a pity that he had yet to gather all the ingredients in the Great Revitalizing Pellet recipe. Which produced the current effects of the Great Revitalizing Pellet was unable to match the magical Flower of Life.


Regular bowl flower pink red size from ” Peach of Immortality ‘once again in bloom. This flower would not wither for a hundred years and Qing Shui was already tired of looking at it. For the time being he only hoped that his/her peach would soon mature.


He also noticed that/it Plum Flower in the distance had bloomed, looking like a field of pure white, unpolluted snow. His Wine Plum Blossom was just about to be used so he planned to make more after he finished this incident.


Given that/that he still has to go to the Xiao Clan tomorrow, Qing Shui decided to cultivate once again.


Back Connect Boxing!


During this period of time he became more familiar with the Back Connecting Fist Technique. Although he could not clear more acupoints, the energy flowing from his back to his two arms had increased more.


With his Divine Clearing Arm Technique having reached the Great Perfection Stage, he was able to clear many acupoints on his arms. Their endurance and explosive power had already reached an extremely terrifying level.


It was important to know that/it was that most cultivators were unable to fully utilize the power in their bodies. To be able to use 80% of the entire strength in one's body was considered a very high amount, on the condition of being empty-handed.


It would be a different story when a divine weapon was equipped because it could allow one to exert a number of powers that exceeded one's body. For a Sword Technique cultivator, the difference between fighting barehanded and a battle equipped with a powerful sword was the difference between Heaven and Earth.


When he finished with the Back Connecting Fist Technique, he suddenly recalled that/it was an Elephant Form among the Nine Beasts Mimicry Technique could be cultivated as well. But he never had a chance. He planned to study it as much as he could because he still had time.


Absorbing into his sea of consciousness, Qing Shui looked towards the Elephant Shape. There is only one word that can describe his search …


Divert!


There were many things among the Elephant Forms, but he kept pressing. After all, the Elephant Form was one of the last few most powerful mythical beasts in the Nine Beasts Mimicry Technique.


In his previous world, elephants were one of the largest animals on land. It is said that/it has traces of dinosaur lineage in it. The largest elephant ever recorded in the world before was about 10 meters in length and 4 meters in height, weighing about 15,000 jin!


In the World of the Nine Continents, there were also a number of mythical beasts of the elephant species, and their bodies were much sturdier and resilient. They are mostly found in ” Mythological Beast Forest ” towards the northern part of the continent, among the Giant Beast Mountains.


Just like the Giant Golden Elephant on the continent, they were about 30 meters long and 9 meters high. Their entire bodies were tough like diamonds and could pierce through mountains. Known as one of the most powerful mythical beasts, their strength was at least Martial Saint level.
