Chapter 7 – Muck cleaning
Chapter 7 Cleaning of Dirt.
Qing Shui had never felt better in his entire life! It was similar to someone dying of thirst in the desert and suddenly an enormous water source appeared before him. This sense of satisfaction is the kind of feeling that resonates with one's body and soul.
Qing Shui slowly walked out of the basement.
"Dear mother .." Qing Shui exclaimed with joy.
Qing Yi was very surprised, Qing Shui only mediated for a while. He was still recovering from the excitement he felt when Qing Shui entered a meditative state easily, and now Qing Shui seemed to have completed his training.
“Mother, I have successfully condensed Qi! However, it was very thin, like a strand of hair. ”
These words left Qing Yi dumbfounded. Her graceful and jade-like face reddened and her lips began to tremble ..
"Qing Shui, quickly give me your hand!" Qing Yi excitedly said.
Qing Shui obediently, handed his hand to Qing Yi. Qing Yi stretched out her graceful, snow-white and jade-like hand, taking Qing Shui's hand into her.
"Qing Shui, quickly circulate your Qi based on the Blue Lotus Art formula."
After a while, Qing Yi emotionally hugged Qing Shui and kissed him twice on his cheek.
"Shui'er, you are a genius .. a true genius." Qing Shui said with a hint of excitement in his voice. Of course, Qing Yi would only lose her composure in front of her son.
Seeing how happy Qing Yi was, Qing Shui's heart was also filled with warmth. She knew that even though Qing Yi usually looked very happy and always had a smile on her face, she was only acting strong for her sake. However this time, Qing Shui knew that Qing Yi was truly happy from the bottom of her heart.
“Mother will go first to prepare some delicious food for my little genius.” Qing Yi said as she patted Qing Shui's head lovingly.
After Qing Yi left, Qing Shui shook his head in helplessness. His actual age was not much younger than Qing Yi. However, with her current small body, she had to speak in a similar way to a child. She also felt that the praise she received from the adults was pronounced in a very sweet way.
With a mother like this, even if the sky collapsed Qing Shui was still unconcerned, Qing Shui's only hope right now was for the woman he called this mother to be happy.
It might be due to his recent good mood, but he had a much better appetite compared to the past. It was the same for Qing Shui, but he did not know that the real reason for this was due to his intensive training as well as the fact that he could finally relax and be happy.
“Mother, let me out to stretch my legs now. I will join the rest of our clan members for cultivation practice tomorrow. "
Qing Shui blinked his beautiful eyes and smiled at her with a hint of confidence that was not there until now. He did not believe that he was weaker than the other 3rd generation martial students.
Qing Shui would only show a smile containing a childish face in front of Qing Yi.
And whenever Qing Yi saw Qing Shui's beautiful eyes, her memories would dredge involuntarily, she couldn't help but become distracted, despite recovering quickly.
Qing Shui exited the Qing Mansion and returned to the secret cave he had discovered during his exploring the mountains. For the past few days, this cave was where he practiced the Ancient Strengthening Technique.
He recalled the Yin-Yang symbol within his sea of consciousness and decided to wear a pendant around his neck, hidden within his clothes.
After he found it, he would come to this cave every day and leave after cultivating the Ancient Strengthening Technique. Today was no exception, although there were many disappointments as he struggled to comprehend the first layer of the Ancient Strengthening Technique, he would still return to this cave and cultivate it every day. The thought of giving up never crossed his mind.
Previously, Qing Shui was still unable to master the first layer of the Ancient Strengthening Technique. There should be a Qi flow formation, making Dan Tian into something similar to a whirlpool.
But today, today is different. After successfully condensing a single strand of Qi from the cultivation of the Blue Lotus Art, a small fog cloud had formed within his Dan Tian.
Sitting cross-legged, Qing Shui activated the Ancient Strengthening Technique. To his surprise, the strands of Qi that appeared after cultivating the Blue Lotus Art actually began to circulate through his meridians and energy channels as determined by the Ancient Strengthening Technique!
Qing Shui was a little confused.
After circulating the Qi for a while, that single strand of Qi seemed to become slightly thicker, the Qi flow also grew stronger.
Could it be that, this was the goal of the Ancient Strengthening Technique? Need a catalyst before it can be activated? The Qi strand of the Blue Lotus Art was the catalyst he needed! That was probably the reason why the Ancient Strengthening Technique had different layers.
The Ancient Strengthening Technique could be differentiated into 9 different layers, representing the 9 heavens. In the early stages of the technique, one could temper Dan Tian. At the later stages, one could even reach the Core Formation!
“Forget it, I will cultivate first and worry about the rest in the future.”
Qing Shui carefully circulated his Qi while closing his eyes. Unbeknownst to him, as his Qi circulated according to the path of the Ancient Strengthening Technique, when it flowed into his chest, the pendant on his neck began to glitter with a faint trace of light. The trail of light was very pure to look at, it was not too bright, but it was still very beautiful.
This was not noticed by Qing Shui. While cultivating along the path determined by the Ancient Strengthening Technique, after the Blue Lotus Qi completed the great cycle of circulation [1], Qing Shui realized that there were now 2 streams of Qi. 1 Yellow and 1 blue, gathered together in his Dan Tian.
Unbeknownst to him, his Dan Tian had also evolved, forming a Qi vortex. He could faintly feel the whirlpool Qi continuously spinning. Qing Shui could sense that it was capable of producing large amounts of energy!
"So my guess is correct, the Ancient Strengthening Technique needs a catalyst before it can be activated .. It is only fitting that I failed so many times."
The Qi of the Blue Lotus Art was light blue, so the yellow Qi should have come from the Ancient Strengthening Technique. " Qing Shui concluded.
"Finally, the formation of the Qi flow has succeeded, in the future, in the future, I will rely heavily on the Ancient Strengthening Technique and the Yin Yang symbol that constantly rotates in my sea of consciousness to slowly refine my body and strength to a frightening stage . At that stage, without using any martial techniques and based solely on the toughness of my body alone, I should be comparable to an expert. "
“I really can't slack off in the cultivation of the Blue Lotus Art. At the very least, I must reach the ninth Lotus Manifestation Stage. " It's a pity that the later stages of the cultivation method have disappeared. Qing Shui sadly shook his head. He felt that Qing Yi should know something about the lost cultivation method, only that she could not tell him at this moment.
“Already, mastering the Ancient Strengthening Technique is more important than the Blue Lotus Art. After all, I want to practice the Blue Lotus Art as a means to deceive others, hiding the existence of my Ancient Strengthening Technique. "
'Today, I have managed to grasp the basics of the early layers of the Ancient Strengthening Technique, it can be said that this is a good start. I shouldn't think too much about things. As mother said, pride comes before the fall. It would be better for me to take one step at a time. ”
Only after ending her training did Qing Shui realize that there was a layer of greasy black dirt, giving off an unpleasant smell, expelled from her pores.
Could this be.. Dirt Cleaning?
