Chapter 4: Summoning Heroes United (Second Update, Please Collect!)

  "League of Legends!"

  He swallowed his saliva, and Qin Xuan's eyes were filled with incredulity. As a former otaku, he naturally knew this game that was almost sweeping the globe, but he never thought that the "Heroic Spirit Compendium" in his hand would be connected to it!

  To verify his own idea, Qin Xuan nervously turned to the second page. According to the inexplicable information that appeared in his mind, the second page would have the first hero, and he would fight for himself.

  Although I don't know who this hero is, Qin Xuan still has high expectations!

  Splash.

  "Empty?"

  Dazed, the imagined scene did not appear. Qin Xuan suddenly fell from heaven to hell, staring at a blank page with a look of astonishment on his face and an empty heart.

  "It can't be, the Heroic Sacred Tome shouldn't deceive itself." After a brief moment of loss, Qin Xuan quickly furrowed his brow in thought. Although he still didn't understand what had happened, logically speaking, he should have obtained the recognition of that giant gate and become the master of the 'Heroic Sacred Tome', this situation shouldn't have occurred.

  "Must one infuse the mysterious energy?"

  As soon as he thought of it, Qin Xuan immediately poured the meager amount of spiritual energy in his body into the "Heroic Divine Canon", and this time he was finally not disappointed. Suddenly, a faint blood-red glow appeared on that blank page, and as time passed, the blood-red glow gradually outlined a human figure.

  "This, this is..."

  From blurry to clear, until the crimson glow completely dissipated, Qin Xuan finally saw clearly his first 'hero'.

  Golden short hair, resolute facial features, eyes tightly closed, blue and gold armor that almost covers the entire body, holding a giant sword that is nearly half his height in hand, standing there alone gives people an endless sense of oppression.

  "For Demacia!"

  Excited, thrilled, crazy, perhaps there are no words to describe Qin Xuan's emotions at this moment. Looking at the person who could only be seen in computer games in his past life standing in front of him, he was already speechless. His entire body was slightly trembling with excitement.

  Garen, a powerful man, the pride of Demacia, leader of the Dauntless Vanguard, and a presence on the battlefield who uses his own body to help his allies!

  His strength was beyond doubt, at least Qin Xuan didn't doubt it. He had imagined many heroes, but he never thought that his first hero would be Galen!

  Hiss.

  At this moment, Galen, who had been keeping his eyes tightly closed, suddenly opened them. What a pair of eyes they were! They seemed to be able to see through everything, and with just one glance, it was as if all his secrets were laid bare. But before Qin Xuan could even react, a flash of silver light instantly pierced into his brow.

  "At your service, master!"

  Splash.

  Galen held a large sword in his hand, knelt on one knee, and spoke with a loud and powerful voice.

  Shaking his head, Qin Xuan came back to himself and looked at Gailen, who was kneeling on one knee. He had an inexplicable feeling, as if the two of them now shared some kind of connection, making their relationship even more intimate.

  "Are you really Galen?" Qin Xuan still couldn't believe everything that was happening now, after all, it came too suddenly, without any mental preparation at all.

  "Yes!"

  Upon hearing this affirmative answer, Qin Xuan finally let out a sigh of relief and stood up, but immediately regretted it as his 1.8-meter height still made him a head shorter than Galen.

  No longer thinking much, Qin Xuan seemed to have thought of something and hastily asked, "What's your current strength?"

  Qin Xuan seemed a bit anxious, this was the problem he should be concerned about. According to the information from "Heroic God's Canon", he didn't need to worry that these heroes would disobey his summons or turn against him, because as long as he had an idea, he could easily kill them, and even if he wanted to, he could easily know what they were thinking in their hearts.

  With only one day left until the Qin family's grand assembly, what was most crucial was whether or not he could emerge victorious. That's right, being victorious! He hadn't forgotten that only the first place winner would be able to obtain the Qin family ancestors' treasured 'Rejuvenation of the Meridians' artifact.

  Upon hearing this, Galen's expression turned contemplative, his two sword-like eyebrows furrowed tightly. After a moment, he spoke seriously, "According to the ranking system on your side, my current strength should be equivalent to that of a 9th-level Body Refiner. Moreover, Master's strength is too weak; otherwise, I would have become even stronger!"

  "Has he reached the ninth level of Body Refining?"

  Nodding, Qin Xuan didn't get angry at Galen's latter half sentence, after all this was the truth. Although his cultivation of nine layers wasn't weak among the younger generation of the four palaces, he still fell far short compared to those few geniuses.

  "By the way, does this divine manual have a method that can make me surge in power within one day?" Qin Xuan's eyes suddenly shot out a sharp ray of light.

  "No." The words had barely fallen when Galen thoroughly crushed the remaining hope, and Qin Xuan also felt that his idea was a bit unrealistic. Just as he was smiling wryly, he heard Galen say, "However, the Divine Manual can grant my abilities to its master, including combat skills and experience."

  Boom.

  The ups and downs of life left Qin Xuan stunned for a moment, and when he came back to his senses, it was another wave of excitement. What kind of person is Galen? The power of Demacia! His abilities, combat skills, and experience are simply comparable to having a divine artifact in hand. No, this has surpassed the divine artifact, after all, a divine artifact is just an inanimate object without life or thought.

  Originally, Qin Xuan was thinking of directly summoning Galen out, now that it has come to this, how can he not be excited.

  Summoning is not unfamiliar in the Divine Profound Continent. Apart from martial artists who cultivate Profound Qi, there is also a special group of existences on the continent - the Divine Summoners!

  Divine Summoners are extremely rare, which is also related to their extremely difficult cultivation. This has led to the extremely high status of Divine Summoners on the continent of Shen Xuan. A single Divine Summoner of the same level can take on three or four martial artists of the same level, and even more. Therefore, they are also the objects of recruitment by various major forces.

  It's just that the creatures summoned by the Summoner are usually magical beasts, and summoning a human like Qin Xuan would be difficult to explain even if he went out, and might even expose the existence of the 'Heroic Divine Canon'.

  "Now it's saved some trouble." A smile played on his lips, Qin Xuan didn't want to expose the 'Heroic God Canon', not to mention the troubles and commotion that would follow after exposure. Just saying that with his current cultivation of three heavy bodies, if he attracted someone with ill intentions, he might be killed because of it, and possibly even the entire Qin family's four manors would thoroughly disappear from this continent.

  "What kind of existence is that door, and what about that universe."

  He recalled the 'Heroic Divine Canon' into his body, Qin Xuan's mind was filled with doubts and wonders. Now this divine canon seemed to have merged with him as one, quietly suspended in his dantian, where the thin and almost negligible xuanqi revolved around it, as if it were the central source of power.

  Gailen has returned to the Divine Compendium, where he can receive the best nourishment. Even if he is injured and on the verge of death in the outside world, as long as he returns to the Divine Compendium, he will absolutely be able to stand up again, just like nothing happened. This also fills Qin Xuan with a sense of emotion.

  The Heroic Spirit Compendium, Qin Xuan opened the second page to obtain Galen's loyalty. He also tried to open the third page, but no matter how hard he tried, the third page didn't budge. This made him a bit regretful, after all, if he could get another hero, with two heroes' help, this clan meeting would be a sure win.

  But according to Galen's explanation, in order to turn to the third page, one must possess a physique of at least seven refinements!

  "Sevenfold Transmutation of the Body."

  Sitting at the head of the bed, Qin Xuan's mouth curled up with a confident smile. Just now, he had checked his body and found it hard to believe that the meridians that had been crippled were slowly healing. Although the speed of this healing was very slow, all of this was absolutely true!

  By tomorrow's Clan Mansion Assembly, I can at least recover one ten-thousandth of my meridians!

  Don't underestimate the power of this one-ten-thousandth meridian, it's enough to make the Xuan Qi absorbed by Qin Xuan unobstructed and won't cause any loss of Xuan Qi or decline in strength.

  "No matter what, I must get first place!" Qin Xuan clenched his fists tightly, his eyes blazing like two burning flames. "As long as I get first place, I'll be able to obtain that precious treasure, and with the help of the Divine Manual, the speed of my meridian repair will definitely increase greatly under double restoration!"

  "Besides, it's time to help Father vent his anger!"

  With a faint smile, Qin Xuan closed his eyes and began to cultivate, making the final effort for tomorrow's clan meeting. In these six months, Qin Yun Tian had not been spared from oppression by the other three clans.

  "Master, Master, something's wrong."

  Hmph.

  It wasn't until the sun was high in the sky that a sudden voice woke Qin Xuan up, and he saw a thin, short man dressed as a servant stumbling and falling at the door, then quickly scrambling to his feet.

  "What's going on?" Qin Xuan's eyebrows furrowed slightly, and he was somewhat surprised by the servant's behavior. After all, the Qin family was a large and prestigious clan with very strict household rules. Normally, no servant dared to be so reckless, not even daring to speak loudly.

  What's going on?

  Qin Xuan's heart skipped a beat as he felt an intense and ominous premonition.

  Sure, here is the translation:

  As expected, the servant returned panting and said, "The master of the Western Mansion and the old master are about to fight, young master, please go take a look."

  West Prefecture Governor?

  Upon hearing this, Qin Xuan's pupils suddenly contracted, and the image of Qin Jiangwei, who had intercepted him last night, flashed in his mind. His face turned cold, and before the servant could speak again, he shot out like an arrow leaving a bowstring. The servant didn't even have time to wonder when his young master's speed had become so fast, and after taking two deep breaths, he also chased after him.
