Chapter 47: Martial King

"Qin Ming, tell me, where did this Cultivation Technique come from?"

Qin Yuan abruptly closed the booklet and stared intently at Qin Ming.

This is a Heaven Grade Cultivation Technique. Even the families in Chenyang City have, at most, Low Grade Earth-Grade Cultivation Techniques.

If the introduction in this booklet is correct, this should be a High Grade Heaven Grade Cultivation Technique.

Even a slight leak of information about such a Cultivation Technique would cause a bloodbath.

"My Master obtained it by chance. He isn't actually at the Grand Martial Master Realm; he is a Martial King level Expert.

It's just that he's currently injured and has no way to use his Martial King strength."

Qin Ming had no choice but to use his Master as an excuse.

"Martial King, Martial King…"

Qin Yuan paced in the Family Ancestral Hall, his face filled with excitement and nervousness.

He had never imagined that a high-and-mighty Martial King would one day be so close to him.

Furthermore, a Martial King had become an Enshrined Elder of his Family; it was like a dream.

Qin Yuan suddenly stood straight, took a deep breath, and said to Qin Ming:

"Qin Ming, do not mention this to anyone. A Martial King is a blessing, but also a disaster."

"Yes, Father. I haven't told anyone; I only told you."

Qin Ming nodded and spoke to his father.

"Good!" Qin Yuan finally calmed down. Now that a Martial King was at their home…

Whether it brought fortune or calamity, they would have to bear it themselves.

If they survived this ordeal, they would become Dragons; if not, they would turn to ash.

"Qin Ming, did your Master say how he was injured or how strong his enemies are?"

To injure a Martial King, the opponent must also be a Martial King or even someone with a cultivation level above that. This was why Qin Yuan was so nervous.

"Master said the enemy is only a Martial King and that he has a way to deal with it, so we shouldn't worry."

Qin Ming comforted him.

"That's good! That's good!" Qin Yuan murmured.

"Father, take a look at what's inside that jade bottle."

Qin Ming said with a smile.

"Oh?" Qin Yuan snapped out of his daze, feeling a faint sense of anticipation. Something given by a Martial King couldn't be bad.

Qin Yuan slowly opened the jade bottle and poured out a Medicinal Pill.

"This is a qi gathering pill, a perfect stage qi gathering pill. And the quantity is… a full twenty pills?"

"Yes, Father," Qin Ming smiled.

"With these Medicinal Pills and this Heaven Grade Cultivation Technique, you will be able to Breakthrough to the Grand Martial Master Realm."

"Good! Haha… good!" Qin Yuan laughed heartily. How could he not be happy at the thought of soon reaching the Grand Martial Master Realm he had always dreamed of?

"Qin Ming, why don't you Cultivate this technique with me?

If you also Cultivate this technique, with your Aptitude, you could probably reach the Grand Martial Master Realm with ease."

Qin Ming waved his hand.

"Father, the Cultivation Technique I Cultivate is not bad either; it's even better than the one you are Cultivating.

It's just that its cultivation speed is a bit slow. This technique feels like it was tailor-made for me."

"Slow?" Qin Yuan shook his head. Reaching the Martial Master Realm in just one month—how could that possibly be slow!

"You're grown up now and have your own ideas. As long as you've considered it carefully, do as you wish.

If you feel something is wrong with the technique, you must stop immediately."

Qin Yuan urged.

"Alright, Father, please don't worry."

Qin Ming added, "Father, this Cultivation Technique is for your use only. If outsiders find out we have a Heaven Grade Cultivation Technique…"

"…it would be a curse, not a blessing."

Qin Yuan looked at Qin Ming and said:

"You brat, rest assured. Your father isn't senile yet; of course, I know the principle of not flaunting one's wealth.

Until our Family is strong enough to protect this technique, I won't tell anyone."
