Chapter Fourteen: Ling Qingyan's Determination

  These days, Moyun City seems so peaceful.

  Only those from various major forces who came to Moyun City and the three families originally stationed in this city knew that this was an omen before a storm.

  Ling's family.

  "Haha!"

  A loud and clear laughter suddenly came from a room, breaking the original tranquility in the house.

  Wow!

  In the midst of a turbulent mind, the right hand that was stretched out suddenly emitted waves of pale green light from its palm.

  "Green Level Primary!"

  Looking at the pale green glow in his hand, the purple-shirted youth sitting on the bed had a hint of excitement on his slightly childish face.

  Finally broke into the green level!

  Ling Qing's eyes narrowed slightly, and the pale green true energy that had been released from his hand suddenly retracted. "I didn't expect that after this bout of unconsciousness, my control over the condensation and manipulation of the true energy within my body would actually increase by so much."

  "I've heard Elder say that the higher the cultivation manual, the more obvious the true power of the transformation of the heavenly energy and spiritual energy within the body..."

  "Generally, martial artists cultivate by absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth from outside their bodies, then converting this heavenly energy into true power that enters the body's meridians..."

  "However, the true power gained from the transformation still does not entirely belong to the warrior and will soon dissipate..."

  "The higher the cultivation manual, the simpler and more effortless it is to condense and control the true energy. Ordinary manuals, such as the 'Lingyun Quan' passed down by my own Ling family, can only condense about half of the true energy converted from the heaven and earth spiritual energy, while the remaining majority will flow out of the body again."

  "The Great Elder once said that even the most extraordinary and secret techniques from the Wudang Continent cannot fully condense true energy, and some of it will inevitably be lost..."

  "And I, through the manipulation of consciousness, was able to fully condense and operate these true powers two years ago. The recent coma even allowed me to manipulate the condensation of true power in my body like a fish in water!"

  "In other words, one's cultivation speed has already completely broken free from the restraints of ordinary secret manuals within the family due to that consciousness which can be manipulated at will..."

  By the time he finished speaking, Ling Qingyan had completely understood the existence of his special consciousness and its great benefits for his cultivation.

  "Give me eight years and I will definitely break into the Violet Rank!"

  Ling Qing's eyes sparkled with confidence.

  If Ling Qingyan's arrogant words were known to those major sects and large families, they would surely be ridiculed.

  Although Ling Qingyan can fully condense the true energy transformed from the heavenly spiritual energy absorbed into his body, but just relying on this point, it is absolutely impossible to reach the level of a purple-level warrior in an extremely short period of time.

  In a large clan, among many families, those with high martial arts talent are not many, but also not in the minority.

  They were practicing the ultimate secret manual, and their cultivation speed was only slightly slower than Ling Qing's. However, why did many of them have to wait until they were 70 or 80 years old, or even over a hundred years old, before breaking through to the Violet Rank warrior level?

  Everything is just because of the shackles of the meridians in the warrior's body!

  On the continent of Chongwu, what is known as martial arts talent refers only to the degree of breadth and width of the meridians within a martial artist's body. The width of the meridians in the bodies of those with high talent is dozens of times that of those who are utterly unsuited to become martial artists!

  The meridians are innate, but they can be expanded, it's just that the method is extremely difficult and the conditions are extremely harsh.

  Like that mysterious courtesan "Shuī Yùnér" in the Rú Nài Xiāng Gé, although she herself has extremely high innate talent and practices the top secret techniques of the Chóng Wǔ continent, yet it is still not enough to allow her to break into the initial stage of the Purple Rank at such a young age!

  She was able to become such a young Purple Rank warrior...

  Everything was because of the "Soul Cleansing Pool" in her sect that had been passed down for tens of thousands of years!

  Wash the spiritual pool, absorb the thousand-year heaven and earth spirit energy, can produce a gas field, will be in the gas field for a long time to cultivate people's body meridians expanded to an extremely terrifying degree, but also do not harm that cultivator's meridians. When the cultivator's meridians inside the gas field are expanded to the limit, the gas field will also disappear...

  It would take another thousand years for such an atmosphere to form again.

  Even in the sect where Shui Yun'er is located, a young purple-level warrior like her can only be cultivated for thousands of years!

  But Ling Qingyan's innate talent for martial arts, although considered a rare gift, was only about one or two times wider than those with exceptionally high natural ability, still far from the width of Shui Yun'er's meridians.

  At the rate of Ling Qingyan's cultivation, it would take at least twenty more years to break into the Violet Rank. This is a relatively conservative estimate, after all, the path of martial arts cultivation is not always smooth sailing, and who knows when he might encounter a bottleneck.

  At this moment, Ling Qingyan was unaware of all this.

  ………

  "Yan Er."

  A gentle and loving voice suddenly came from outside the door, interrupting Ling Qingyan's thoughts.

  Coming back to her senses, a smile involuntarily appeared on Ling Qing's tender face. With a movement of her body, she had already arrived in front of the door.

  "Mother!"

  As soon as the door opened, Ling Qingyan saw his mother, Shangguan Yun, standing outside and called out to her in a soft voice.

  She led Madame Xia into the room, and Ling Qingyan poured a cup of water from one side and handed it to Madame Xia. Then he stared at Madame Xia's face tightly, his eyebrows slightly furrowed, "Mother, you've lost weight. Many things can be done by your subordinates, you should rest more."

  "Okay, okay, okay..."

  Hearing her son's considerate words, Yu Jianye's pale face due to worry for the past few days suddenly turned a little rosy, and she nodded "good" three times in a row.

  "Yan'er, your uncle is going on a long trip these next few days. You've been cooped up at home for so many years, why not come out with him this time and clear your mind?"

  Looking at her sensible son, a hint of reluctance flashed across Yu Ge's autumnal eyes.

  Although it's hard to part with one's own child, Ling's family situation is truly too dangerous this time! It's fine if nothing happens, but once something happens...

  Her husband was the master of the house, and it was impossible for him to hide at this time. As the mistress of the Ling family, she also couldn't leave. This time, various major forces came to "Mo Yun City", and there were too many uncertain factors. Upper official Yun extremely didn't want her son to take risks.

  "Huh?"

  Hearing his mother's words, and seeing the fleeting reluctance in her eyes, Ling Qingyan's heart skipped a beat. But he said, "Mother, I'm still young now, it won't be too late to venture out when I grow up."

  At this moment, Ling Qingyan also completely understood his mother's intention!

  In his past life, Ling Qingyan had never experienced a mother's love, but in this life, he was extremely attached to his mother. Even though he possessed the thoughts of an adult from a young age, he still often clung to his mother's side, enjoying her care and protection.

  If in his past life, the most important person was the girl he called "Lier", then in this life, the most important person is the one in front of him, "Shangguan Yun", his mother in this life!

  At this time, he absolutely cannot leave, he must protect his mother and guard his family in this life.

  Otherwise, even if one can barely survive, he will suffer for his whole life!

  In his previous life, he left with regret; in this life, he doesn't want to leave any regrets behind.

  Even if I die!

  "Mother, I have made up my mind," seeing his mother Guan Yun still wanting to advise him, Ling Qingyan's eyes were firm and he said in a clear voice.
