Eternal Life (永生) Ch. 23

Mo’qi?

“Purple Lightning Peak? That is the residence of true disciple Fang Qing Xue. As soon as she became a true disciple, she killed eight outer court disciples. The elders punished her, but it wasn’t a true punishment. She is a person one cannot provoke.”

As soon as the three words, ‘Purple Lightning Peak’, came out from Fang Han’s mouth, the color of everyone’s face immediately changed.

Especially those couple Da’de Empire princes and princesses, their faces changed very greatly, and began quietly talking amongst themselves.

“Heng!”

The most awkward was Prince Bao, as well as the inner court disciple that had just sent out the flying sword. Prince Bao had been defeated by Fang Han, a long b.l.o.o.d.y streak on his face. It could be said that he had lost all face.

Taking out a “Jade Blood-stopping Talisman” from his breast, he quietly stopped the flowing of blood. This young prince from the Da’de Empire let out a cold snort, a sinister light flashing in his eyes.

From his eyes, his immense hatred radiated out.

As for the inner court disciple whose flying sword got taken, they were originally going to be furious, and immediately make a move, but upon hearing the three words ‘Purple Lightning Peak’, they immediately showed a lot of hesitation.

At this time, a young female, seemingly around twenty years old, spoke out, “My brother disciple’s ‘Spirit Wind Sword’ is his life. The bestowal of it by the elders is something that only happens once. The upper level ling’qi has slain countless numbers of Demons and Devils, I hope you can return it. Otherwise, when we go out to train this time, it will be very dangerous. I’m afraid that without it, we may fall to a group of Devils. Just now, my brother disciple made a reckless move, but it is just a small matter. As a group about to go out and experience the big matter of slaying Devils, could brother disciple Fang perhaps overlook this matter? I will apologize to brother disciple Fang on behalf of my brother disciple.”

This girl was clearly an inner court disciple, as her cultivation rather high. She had a face like a lotus, eyebrows like a willow, and a graceful figure, especially her long legs. Her neck was as white as snow, her two eyes seemingly as moist as water, although occasionally, a refined light flashed by. She had the att.i.tude of a leader.

“Senior sister disciple Mo.”

Upon seeing the girl apologize, those disciples of the Da’de Empire seemingly became embarra.s.sed. They were about to explain, but senior sister disciple Mo waved her hand, and they stopped their words. Her eyes looking at Fang Han, she apologized again. A wave of oppression also swept past, as if she was also interested in the secrets on Fang Han’s body.

This girl’s Qi is very strong. Compared with Teacher Bai Hai Chen’s, it isn’t worse by much. It seems as if she is an expert of the tenth level, G.o.dly Transformation. Right now, she’s trying to force me to return the flying sword, to return or not to return? However, the things sealed in the ‘Map of the Hidden Yellow Dragon Spring’, seemingly couldn’t be taken out. If I were to reveal it, I’m afraid I would immediately be killed. Then again, one ling’qi, how precious is it? If I just casually return it, what sort of person will I seem to be?

Facing the glare coming from senior sister disciple Mo, Fang Han constantly spun ideas through his head.

Magic treasures were categorized as fa’qi, ling’qi, bao’qi, dao’qi, and xian’qi. Fa’qi were artifacts which had absorbed magic. As long as an expert of the Divine Realm was capable of using magic, they would be able to refine one.

As for ling’qi, one had to train to the fifth level of the Divine Realm and become a Tian’ren expert so that they could use magic to arrange large arrays. Only by inscribing a large array of magic on an artifact would one refine a ling’qi.

One ling’qi held enormous power. It was the dream of many Mortal Realm pract.i.tioners to procure a body protecting ling’qi artifact.

Like the ‘Spirit Wind Sword’ from just now, after blood-binding, one could command one with their mind, flying around and beheading enemies. It wouldn’t consume their energy, and would keep them from drowning in water and burning in fire. With one, one could face an army without fear.

This ling’qi flying sword, if it landed in a secular empire, it could win one a country, and the position of marquis, allowing future generations to leisurely enjoy wealth to their hearts’ content.

In fact, if Prince Bao could procure a ling’qi and then return to the Da’de Empire, he would be able to shake up the line of succession, and become the crown prince.

Ling’qi were priceless beyond imagination.

Even amongst the Yu’hua School’s hundred thousand disciples, only some inner court disciples were able to have one.

As for outer court disciples, it was impossible for them to have a ling’qi, at most, they would have an ordinary fa’qi.

Currently, Fang Han had gotten a ling’qi, the ‘Spirit Wind Sword’. Forget the fact that he was unable to take it out, even if he took it out, he wouldn’t want to just return it the other person.

“Senior sister disciple Mo, the current big picture is to go out and eliminate the Devils and protect others, to go to the Han’hai Desert’s Blue Moon Country and rescue the many ordinary people. This large picture, I know of. However, when the first lady of Purple Lightning Peak bestowed this ling’qi upon me, she told me that it could only defend and block flying swords, and requested that I do something for her. I truly do not know how to use it, so as for brother disciple’s sealed flying sword, I cannot do anything about it. How about tomorrow, I return to Purple Lightning Peak and request first lady to take out the sealed ‘Spirit Wind Sword’ out from this ling’qi. Then, I will return it to brother disciple.”

Fang Han’s idea was to push everything onto Fang Qing Xue and pa.s.s this first obstacle so that he could go back and think of a way to deal with it.

“O? Fang Qing Xue actually bestowed a ling’qi on you? She wanted you to do something for her in her place?” Upon hearing Fang Han’s nonsensical excuse, senior sister disciple Mo’s eyes flashed, as if she had guessed what was going on. After a while, she replied, “So it ends like this. Tonight, we should all prepare for tomorrow’s expedition to the Han’hai Desert.”

The inner court disciple who had sent out the sword looked hideous, hastily yelling, “senior sister disciple Mo, my ‘Spirit Wind Sword’! You can’t let him take it away!” while glaring at Fang Han.

“I have an idea!”

Senior sister disciple Mo once again waved her hand.

“This matter is over, I am giving my good-byes,” Fang Han had given his promise. Turning to Prince Bao, “Prince Bao, today we exchanged blows, and I have experienced your power.”

“I will let you know what is called regret,” coldly stated Prince Bao.

“Why bother, just like senior sister disciple Mo stated just now, the big picture is most important. I am someone who looks at the big picture. Alright, I need to return to Purple Lightning Peak and get ready for tomorrow’s journey to the Han’hai Desert,” Fang Han laughed, turned around, and left.

He solitarily arrived outside the city. Taking out the ‘Spirit Tamer Tablet’, he messaged ‘Crane Fairy’ to come over, and after a while, she landed in front of him.

“Fang Han, you have already become an outer court disciple for twenty days, how come you never called me during that time? What have you been doing all these days?” asked Crane Fairy, seemingly unsatisfied.

“These couple days, I was beaten up by someone. After harsh training, I went back and beat them up,” Fang Han told Crane Fairy about the things that had happened between him and Prince Bao.

Since Crane Fairy had the maturity of an eight/nine year old girl, after hearing about the interesting story, she was no longer dissatisfied.

“Ge ge, ge ge,” in fact, the story about what happened with Prince Bao made her delighted, “Last time I left the mountain, I hit a golden winged albatross that was twice my size. I was almost eaten by him. It seems I should work hard and train and then go and take my revenge.”

“You can also cultivate?” Fang Han stood on the back of Crane Fairy as they flew through the sky.

“Of course, my body is much stronger than yours. The Yu’hua School’s ‘Calm Crane Longevity Fist’ is based off the movements of us cranes. I am currently training in the ‘Primary Spiritual Technique’ that Fang Qing Xue taught me.

“What, you know the ‘Primary Spiritual Technique’ that only inner court disciples can learn?” Fang Han never would have imagined that Crane Fairy would know this technique.

Training to the eighth level of the Mortal Realm, G.o.dly Courage, resulted in the body gaining a layer of membrane, making ones flesh stronger and tougher. Basically, it would cause one to reach the limit of one’s flesh. In order to advance again, one had to cultivate the spirit.

In order to cultivate one’s spirit, one needed lots of techniques.

Basically, if Fang Han was unable to procure these techniques, no matter how harshly he trained, at most, he would only be able to condense his flesh a little more, never to enter the ninth level, Spiritual Expert.

He would have no way of opening his mind.

One needed to now, after entering the ninth realm, one would hit another bottleneck. Becoming able to see the strength of the enemy’s spirit and entering the tenth level of G.o.dly Transformation required even more capability. Rumors said that when one broke through to the tenth level, one would become able to forget the things that they wanted, and remember the things that they wanted on the point.

These levels were completely based on training one’s spirit in order to unlock the potential of the mind.

All the basics came from the spiritual exercise techniques.

Originally, Fang Han had thought that he would have to become an inner court disciple to learn it. He truly never thought that he would be able to learn it from Crane Fairy.

“Crane Fairy, that ‘Primary Spiritual Technique’, can you teach it to me?” asked Fang Han.

“Of course, but you can’t tell others, o? Otherwise, I am slightly scared that the Yu’hua School will turn me into crane meat,” said Crane Fairy softly.

“These benefits, only fools would tell others,” Fang Han powerfully nodded his head.

Purple Lightning Peak was right in front of their eyes. Fang Han got off of Crane Fairy’s back and landed on the ground and saw Fang Qiang standing in front of his residence.

“Fang Han, how are you? You have finally appeared again. I heard you became an outer court disciple.”

“So it was Ms. Fang Qiang. Ms. Qiang, how did you know that I was returning to Purple Lightning Peak today? Where is first lady?” Fang Han had some mysterious feeling towards Fang Qiang. He thought that she was definitely not something as simple as a head maidservant.

“I saw Crane Fairy fly out, and knew that you were coming back. You asked about first lady, I was just about to tell you. Today, first lady received notice from the elders, and has already left for the Han’hai Desert. It seems as if something major happened to the Blue Moon Country in the Han’hai Desert,” said Fang Qiang, “That’s right, I heard that outer court disciples also had to go to gain experience, are you also preparing to leave?”

“That’s correct, I returned to Purple Lightning Peak to stay the night. Tomorrow, I will leave with Crane Fairy,” said Fang Han.

“If that is the cause, I will not disturb you any longer. If you manage to gain an inner disciple promotion spot during this trip, it would definitely be a very good thing. The Fang Clan will definitely get rid of your servant status and let you become one of their core disciples. When the time comes, the Fang Clan will rely quite a bit on you,” Fang Qiang made a slight smile, then turned and walked away, as Fang Han looked at her back, thinking.

Yu’hua School, the inner disciple’s ‘Nei Xian Yuan’, the inner court disciple who’s ‘Spirit Wind Sword’ had just been taken as well as senior sister disciple Mo and other inner court disciples were all together.

“Senior sister disciple Mo, there’s no way an outer court disciple could have a ling’qi. How could he possibly have taken my flying sword! This sword is my life, I will definitely get it back.”

“I’m guessing that his ling’qi is not a magic treasure of the Yu’hua School, but a Devil School’s ling’qi!”

“Mo’qi!”

“That is correct, it is a Mo’qi! I heard rumors earlier, Fang Qing Xue and the Xian Tian Devil Clan’s commander in chief seem to have had contact before. Perhaps the Devil commander in chief sent her a mo’qi. She arranged for Fang Han entered into the outer court, and has now given him a mo’qi. It seems as if she is training a p.a.w.n! Since it involves the Xian’tian Devil Clan, I didn’t make a move today, and didn’t get your flying sword back for you.

Various speculation flashed through senior sister disciple Mo’s eyes.
