Chapter 128 – One Last Shot
The three of them laughed and chatted for some time, as they were excitedly discussing Qinghan’s new breakthrough. The Realm of the Marshal was considered to be a watershed for all cultivators, and many cultivators would forever linger in the Realm of the General, failing to move that single step forward. What a great achievement for a young man, who wasn’t even seventeen years old! Aside from Qingyu, Qinghan’s beloved sister, in the Ye Castle, these three people here were the most intimate friends he had, and they believed that one day they would share some of the privileges and glory of this aspiring young man.
“Haha, thanks my friends! If it wasn’t for your vigilant protection, I wouldn’t have been able to finish this last stage so quickly!” With a big smile on his face, Qinghan spoke up.
“Errr… Young lord Qinghan, I’m rather confused…” After a minute of silence, Shisan voiced the shared doubt of the three of them, “have you been refining the Dragon Crystal all these days? I mean, the speed of your cultivation was so mind boggling!”
“Dragon Crystal?” Qinghan’s smile froze, as he frowned over Shisan’s question. A moment later, after some meditation, he nodded his head, and replied, “I suppose it is the Dragon Crystal!”
“Doesn’t the Dragon Crystal require one to two years to be fully refined? How come you did this in just a couple of days?” Shisan inquired closely.
Being choked by Shisan’s question, Qinghan scratched his head awkwardly, “I really don’t have a clue either. You know, it’s my first time to encounter such a treasure. Oh, it’s Little Black who is truly refining the essence of it, and I just luckily obtained some of the energy that spilled out of the summoning space.”
“Oh…” Shisan and Shiqi exchanged a surprised look with each other, before Shisan continued, “Little Black? How strong is Little Black now? Since you just reached the Realm of the Marshal, I assume Little Black must also have improved. It’s unimaginable how mighty you’ll be once you and your beast integrate.”
“I understand your curiosity, but I really don’t know! Little Black is still sleeping in my chest. I suppose that he is refining the Dragon Crystal and consolidating his current stage. I bet that we still need to wait at least another day, before he’ll wake up.” Qinghan lifted his head, and added, “As for how powerful we’ll be once integrated… Hmmm, that’s an awesome question. In my opinion, it won’t be a problem for me to kill a cultivator in the first level of the Realm of the Prince by then!”
“Wow!”
Once again, the three of them widened their eyes in sheer astonishment.
“What a perverted cultivator!”
“Ohh, Little Qinghan, you have already exceeded me in cultivation. Now it is me that needs your protection!” Qingwu jokingly spoke to Qinghan, while pouting intentionally.
“Errr!” At first, Qinghan was shocked by Qingwu’s abnormal expression. But, when he realized that he was now much more capable than Qingwu, the so called number one genius of the Ye Family, he scratched his head in embarrassment, “Miss Qingwu, please rest assured... I’ll protect you as long as I’m alive!”
“In your lifetime?” Hearing such a heart-warming promise, Qingwu’s face turned red, and her two eyes became two slits, as she showed a heartfelt smile, “Remember this promise, and don’t ever dare to go back on your words in the future…”
A 16-year old, who had the ability to bring down a cultivator in the first level of the Realm of the Prince? Anyone with common sense would regard this as wild talk, but not Qingwu. The holy-grade battle beast was already a plus for Qinghan’s cultivation, and now that he was blessed with yet another breakthrough, he would be even mightier. As for whether Qinghan’s power would be equivalent or even surpass the Realm of the Prince, the answer lied in Little Black. Once he woke up, he might bring with him a package full of surprises.
……
“Slaughter!”
Another foggy morning, on Breaking Blade Summit, a new wave of attacks had just commenced.
