Chapter 23 – His Terrifying Cultivation Speed (2)

During this month, Qinghan had formed a routine – he hunted and killed the first-grade demonic beasts during the day and cultivated Battle Qi, to clear up his congested meridians, at night.

Each time, he used the special method to dash away the sticky stuff in his meridians by flooding it with large amounts of Battle Qi, rather than dissolving or eroding it bit by bit.

During these thirty nights of self-torturing cultivation, Qinghan had lost consciousness many times due to the aching of his broken meridians. Luckily, however, he had managed to wake up each time with the help of his ring.

However, the fruits of this crazy cultivation were huge. The stuff jammed in his meridians were successfully being flooded away by the force of the Battle Qi. Not only that, even his physical strength had greatly improved.

It was terrifying! Within a single month, six of his meridians had been cleared up! In order to activate the Battle Qi circulation in the Nine-meridian Heavenly Circuit, Qinghan only had to put some more extra efforts in the last half of the absolute meridian. That meant, he would soon have opened all of his nine meridians, which was the requirement to enter into the Realm of the Commander.

Six meridians in one month!

This speed would probably be the new record in the whole Mars Prefecture. Only for those “geniuses”, who had extremely little stuff in their meridians, would such an incredible speed be possible.

Qinghan’s father, Ye Dao, for instance, was a widely-admitted talent in cultivation. However, it had still taken him over half a year to open all twelve of his big meridians. Even for the nine small meridians, he had required three full months.

To Qinghan’s knowledge, the only “peerless genius” in the history of the Mars Prefecture, was a descendant of the Feng Family, and had spent only one month to clear up the Nine-meridian Heavenly Circuit. This genius was considered to be the record-keeper in terms of cultivation speed. Since then, he had become an idol for all cultivators throughout the Flame Dragon Continent.

As for Qinghan, it had taken him one month to open six meridians, while his were obviously different from those true geniuses’. Because, since his meridians were densely stuffed with sticky particles, it took a lot more effort to clear them up.

If his current achievement was known by the Ye Family or announced to the public, then he would definitely enjoy overnight fame.

Obviously, Qinghan had improved by leaps and bounds during these days in the mountain range. While, for each single improvement, he had challenged the physical limits of his body, considering the sharp pain he had suffered in the process, he was actually self-abusing himself to a certain extent.

Of all the citizens in this continent, how many people, or more exactly, how many teenagers who were only fifteen years old, had the courage and determination to try out such a crazy method? The invincible willpower, as well as the capability of tolerance, was hard to find in a normal cultivator, let alone a teenager! As his last resort, Qinghan had persuaded himself, “To succeed, or to die”.

As for a man who had experienced two lives, Qinghan’s psychological age was well beyond thirty. In his previous life, he had also been an underdog, who was ill-treated by the world as a helpless orphan. Meanwhile, this life was far from a better one. Following his father’s death, he was mocked and bullied by his counterparts, as well as by his “respected” elders. These unhappy memories kept replaying in his head. Especially the rainy night, when he had kneeled down in front of the Elder Clan Hall… The oath he had made to his beloved mother; the attack from that bastard Wuhen; and the murderous look from his eldest uncle… All of this reminded Qinghan to be strong, much stronger than those who had looked down upon him! He aspired to become a bright star in cultivation, someone who could control his own destiny!

His astounding cultivating speed was a result of his unlimited ambition. With the aid of the healing function of the bronze ring, Qinghan was confident that he would be able to achieve his goals.

However…

What most surprised Qinghan, was the power and speed of his little battle beast.

It had been two months since Little Black had entered into this world. For the first month, it had only been interested in sleeping and eating. However, since they climbed up into this mountain range, its sleeping time had gradually been shortened. According to Elder Tianxing, when a beast was less and less interested in sleeping, then it was about to step out of its weak period. If the beast didn’t fall asleep any more, it would be an indication for its final step in maturing. At that time, the physical appearance of the beast would be greatly changed.

Currently, Little Black spent one thirds of its time sleeping. And his body had grown up to the size of a human head, but no distinctive difference was found in its appearance. All of this served as solid proof that Little Black was still in its weak period.

Back when Qinghan was in the School of Battle Beasts, he was told by Elder Tianxing, that all battle beasts in their weak period had zero fighting capacities.
