Chapter Index

    Outstanding, excellent!

    A Genius comparable to Xu Ning!

    Li Qingqiu felt a surge of excitement. The True Martial Body destiny seemed very strong, but he needed to be aware of the ‘Heavenly Mandate Easily Broken’ destiny. As long as Zhao Zhen grew to sixteen years old, it could be resolved.

    There are still eleven years.

    Li Qingqiu found it hard to judge how much trouble the ‘Heavenly Mandate Easily Broken’ would bring. His intuition told him that Zhao Zhen’s troubles mainly stemmed from the struggle for imperial power.

    If Zhao Zhen stayed in the Qingxiao Sect, could it be resolved?

    He was afraid Zhao Zhen would bring trouble to the Qingxiao Sect.

    But then he thought, as long as the Qingxiao Sect kept recruiting Disciples, there would always be Disciples who brought trouble to the School. Any choice had its pros and cons. What he needed to consider now was whether Zhao Zhen was worth the risk.

    Zhao Zhen’s current Aptitude was already comparable to Xu Ning’s. Xu Ning, even before adulthood, could easily defeat top Masters in the Martial Forest.

    When Zhao Zhen turned sixteen, and his Comprehension Ability upgraded again, he would be the Qingxiao Sect’s most talented Disciple.

    He could take a gamble!

    What’s more, Zhao Zhen had already knelt and bowed to him. How could he possibly have a reason to drive him away?

    Li Qingqiu’s thoughts raced. A smile appeared on his face, and he personally helped Zhao Zhen up, then carried him onto his lap.

    Zhao Zhen felt a bit awkward, but seeing Li Qingqiu’s smile, he found it hard to refuse.

    Bitter One saw Zhao Zhen successfully become a Disciple. He cupped his fists towards Li Qingqiu and said, “From now on, I’ll trouble the Sect Leader.”

    The more Li Qingqiu looked at Zhao Zhen, the more he liked him. He turned to look at Bitter One and asked with a smile, “You two should also join my School. For now, just settle down. I’ll arrange tasks for you in a few days. You two will share a courtyard with Zhao Zhen.”

    “Thank you, Sect Leader.”

    Bitter One and Bitter Two responded in unison. Bitter Two’s expression was somewhat complex, lost in thought.

    Li Qingqiu wasn’t in the mood to chat with them, so he had Qin Ye take them to settle down. He, on the other hand, wanted to cultivate a good relationship with Zhao Zhen.

    After Qin Ye and the two others left, Li Qingqiu tried to pick up Zhao Zhen, but this time, Zhao Zhen absolutely refused.

    “Master, I don’t want to be carried. I’m a man, not that delicate.”

    Zhao Zhen broke free from Li Qingqiu’s hand, walked to the side, and said seriously. His voice was very childish, making his words sound very amusing, causing Li Qingqiu to burst out laughing.

    “Alright, I respect you, as your Master. Let’s go, I’ll take you to see something fun.”

    Li Qingqiu took Zhao Zhen’s small hand and walked towards the forest behind the mountain. Li Sijin was still waiting for him in that forest, and he also wanted to see what progress Li Sijin had made in Talisman refining.

    Although Zhao Zhen was young, it was his first time at the Qingxiao Sect, and he wasn’t afraid. Held by his Master’s hand, he chattered non-stop, full of curiosity about everything in the Qingxiao Sect. Li Qingqiu naturally answered all his questions.

    He had made up his mind to keep Zhao Zhen by his side from now on, to avoid any accidents.

    First, let Zhao Zhen stay with Bitter One and Bitter Two for a while, and then do this after the two of them felt at ease.

    In the future, he would have two more little followers by his side: Yuan Li and Zhao Zhen.

    “Indestructible Hegemon Body and True Martial Body, tsk tsk. Twenty years from now, these two will be famous throughout the world. Won’t the Disciples’ admiration for me be unending?”

    Li Qingqiu was full of anticipation at the thought. For a School to prosper, it needed to continuously cultivate pillars of strength. He not only hoped that he, his Junior Brother, and Junior Sister would become stronger, but also that the younger Disciples could follow closely behind them.

    However, there was a problem at hand.

    That was whether or not to replicate the True Martial Body.

    In Li Qingqiu’s opinion, the purpose of the True Martial Body was to continuously provide Martial Dao Immortal Spells for the School. It wasn’t like the Heavenly Thunder Spiritual Root, which could directly change Physical Body Aptitude and actual combat power.

    He didn’t need to specifically practice martial arts to create Martial Dao Immortal Spells; doing so would only slow down the growth of his cultivation.

    The opportunity to replicate destiny was not as easy to trigger as Legacy rewards, so he had to use it carefully.

    Observe first!

    Li Qingqiu brought Zhao Zhen to the forest behind the mountain. Li Sijin, who was waiting, saw their figures, and her gaze fell on Zhao Zhen, with a look of scrutiny.

    Li Qingqiu had already told his Junior Brother and Junior Sister about Yan Lan’s identity and his entrustment, so Li Sijin knew Zhao Zhen’s identity.

    Li Sijin didn’t believe what Yan Lan said. She felt that Yan Lan just wanted the Qingxiao Sect to protect his son, and for this, the Qingxiao Sect might face more trouble.

    Because of this, Li Sijin was very displeased the first time she saw Zhao Zhen.

    “This kid is so arrogant, he really deserves a beating.”

    Li Sijin stared at Zhao Zhen, thinking to herself.

    When Li Qingqiu and Zhao Zhen arrived in front of her, Zhao Zhen looked at her and said, “Big Sister, you are so beautiful.”

    Hearing this, Li Sijin was stunned, then a brilliant smile appeared on her face. She happily laughed, “Really?”

    Not annoying, quite cute.

    Li Sijin immediately changed her opinion of Zhao Zhen.

    Zhao Zhen said seriously, “Really, much prettier than the women in our family.”

    Li Qingqiu also smiled. He didn’t think Zhao Zhen was flattering Li Sijin. Cultivating immortals could change one’s temperament. As Li Sijin grew older, she indeed became more beautiful, and she had an ethereal quality that most women in the world lacked.

    Not only her, but Li Dongyue, Xu Ning, and Liu Yan were also undergoing this change. The higher the cultivation, the greater the change.

    “You little rascal, your mouth is so sweet. From now on, in the Qingxiao Sect, I, your Junior Martial Uncle, will protect you!”

    Li Sijin bent down, stroked Zhao Zhen’s head, and said with a beaming smile.

    In the Great Li Dynasty, even a Master’s Junior Sister had to be called Junior Martial Uncle.

    “So it’s Junior Martial Uncle, no wonder you’re so beautiful.” Zhao Zhen continued, making Li Sijin even happier.

    Li Qingqiu gave a fake cough and said, “Alright, quickly show me your Talisman mastery.”

    Hearing this, Li Sijin stood up. She walked to the side, took out a yellow Talisman from her waist, pinching it with two fingers. She glanced at Li Qingqiu and Zhao Zhen, and said with a triumphant smile, “Nephew Disciple, watch carefully, don’t be scared.”

    Zhao Zhen’s eyes widened, staring fixedly at her. Although he didn’t know what she was going to do, he still did as she said.

    Li Sijin didn’t delay either. She tossed the yellow Talisman in her hand into the air, then flicked her finger. A stream of Origin Qi shot from her fingertip, piercing the yellow Talisman and igniting it.

    “Chirp—”

    Accompanied by a cry, a silver eagle shadow flew out of the Talisman’s flames, rapidly expanding. It flapped its wings and flew towards the sky. In mid-flight, it quickly grew larger, and in the blink of an eye, its wingspan exceeded one zhang in length.

    Li Qingqiu’s eyes lit up, astonished by Li Sijin’s Talisman.

    He had originally thought it would be a low-level Spell like creating fireballs or wind blades, but he didn’t expect it to be so Advanced.

    This silver shadow was clearly modeled after Little Nine’s form. It didn’t dissipate quickly but circled above the forest. Its appearance made Zhao Zhen’s mouth hang open.

    Li Sijin waved her finger, and the silver eagle shadow actually changed its flight direction according to her finger. She introduced it proudly, “I call it the Spiritual Eagle Talisman. Although one Talisman can only be used once, it can kill enemies at critical moments.”

    As her words fell, she swung her arm downwards sharply. The silver eagle shadow soaring in mid-air immediately swooped down, breaking branch after branch, and crashing onto the grass. Dust flew everywhere. When the dust settled, a pit the size of a water vat appeared on the ground.

    “Thunder attribute?”

    Li Qingqiu raised an eyebrow and asked, somewhat surprised.

    Li Sijin withdrew her hand. She turned her head and coughed lightly, saying, “Alright, I admit, I consulted with Ning’er. She really is a Genius and gave me a lot of inspiration.”

    “How much internal Qi does it take to create one Spiritual Eagle Talisman?” Li Qingqiu pressed.

    Hearing this, Li Sijin immediately looked helpless. She shrugged and said, “It consumed all of my internal Qi. But it’s fine, I can store it up beforehand. Anyway, I don’t usually fight, so leaving internal Qi unused is pointless.”

    All of the Origin Qi of the Nourishing Origin Realm, Second Layer, no wonder it was so powerful.

    Li Qingqiu praised, “Very good, you’ve rendered a great service. Perhaps your Spiritual Eagle Talisman can save the Disciples’ lives at critical moments. Write down the method for creating this Talisman, and it will be stored in the Scripture Pavilion in the future.”

    “Really? Then I’m also a Genius who created a unique skill?” Li Sijin asked excitedly.

    Jiang Zhaoxia, Xu Ning, and Yang Jueding had successively created unique skills, which were then included in the Scripture Pavilion’s collection. This made her very envious.

    Although the Scripture Pavilion was not yet fully built, the School had already begun to organize unique skills. Having one’s self-created martial art included in the Scripture Pavilion was definitely a great honor.

    “Of course, your Spiritual Eagle Talisman is more significant than Third Junior Brother’s sword art.”

    Li Qingqiu’s words made Li Sijin unable to help but jump up and down in place, overjoyed.

    Zhao Zhen stared blankly at the dirt pit not far away, his young heart greatly impacted.

    He had already begun practicing martial arts and had witnessed the power of the Heaven Protection Guard Masters, but he couldn’t understand why that Talisman could produce an eagle, and how terrifying its destructive power was.

    Li Qingqiu asked some more questions about the Spiritual Eagle Talisman, and Li Sijin answered truthfully.

    The Spiritual Eagle Talisman was not as widely applicable as he had imagined. The Spiritual Eagle Talisman created by Li Sijin could only be used by her. If other Disciples used her Spiritual Eagle Talisman, it would be difficult to control freely, at most achieving an immediate explosion effect.

    Li Qingqiu was not disappointed by this. He believed that Li Sijin would be able to improve it; this was just the beginning.

    Today was a double blessing for him. Zhao Zhen represented the future combat power of the Qingxiao Sect, and Li Sijin’s Spiritual Eagle Talisman also brought the Qingxiao Sect closer to being an Immortal Cultivation School.

    In the days that followed, the Disciples gradually learned that the Sect Leader had taken another Disciple, which made them look forward to Zhao Zhen, because the Sect Leader would not easily take Disciples.

    Five days later, Li Qingqiu imparted the Great Sun Yang Technique to Zhao Zhen.

    With the True Martial Body destiny, Zhao Zhen would certainly have to practice martial arts. Li Qingqiu greatly anticipated him refining the Great Sun Yang Technique into an Immortal Cultivation Technique, which would add another Immortal Cultivation Technique to the Qingxiao Sect, a matter of great significance.

    Zhao Zhen was indeed a Genius. He could already read and write, and after only flipping through the Secret Manual twice, he had memorized it. On that very day, he cultivated the unique internal Qi belonging to the Great Sun Yang Technique.

    From this day on, whether Li Qingqiu went up or down the mountain, he brought Yuan Li and Zhao Zhen with him, allowing the Disciples to remember Zhao Zhen’s face.

    Zhao Zhen’s martial arts talent still exceeded Li Qingqiu’s expectations. His cultivation progressed greatly every day. Li Qingqiu had Yang Jueding test his martial arts, and Yang Jueding exclaimed that he was a Reincarnation of a demon child.

    In Yang Jueding’s eyes, Wu Maner was a peerless Genius, one in ten thousand, while Xu Ning’s Aptitude was incomprehensible to Yang Jueding.

    And Zhao Zhen’s appearance once again shattered Yang Jueding’s understanding.
