Chapter 10 (2/2)
If Ling Han had said from the start that he would teach her a Heaven Grade cultivation technique, she would definitely have treated him as if he was crazy. You couldn’t blame her—after all, if a puny, little clan from Gray Cloud Town could have a Heaven Grade cultivation technique, then wouldn’t this world be completely messed up?
But now, she couldn’t not believe him, for she had personally experienced it.
“This is an actual Heaven Grade cultivation technique, and you’re just going to teach it to me like this?” Her heart trembled—there was an unexplainable throbbing within her heart.
Ling Han smiled. This Three Yin Mysterious Arts indeed was a Heaven Grade cultivation technique, but could only be cultivated by the possessor of the Three Yin Vanis.h.i.+ng Veins. It was useless in anyone else’s hands, so of course he did not fear that Liu Yu Tong would divulge it.
Moreover, he had obtained Indestructible Heaven Scroll, a truly supreme G.o.dly cultivation technique! Just comprehending its first layer required ten thousand years! Compared with this, no matter what kind of Heaven Grade cultivation technique it was… bah! It was completely worthless!
Naturally he would not tell her that. Instead, he said, “You are my follower, I’m never a miser to my own people!”
This was not a lie—he had always swept any mess made by those close to him under the rug, and was very generous towards his own people.
Liu Yu Tong could not stop an expression of embarra.s.sment from appearing on her beautiful face. According to her understanding, the words “own people” had a completely different meaning. After a while, she finally said, “Don’t worry, without your permission, I will not teach this cultivation technique to anyone else.” [1]
“Whatever,” Ling Han said. There would only be one possessor of the Three Yin Vanis.h.i.+ng Veins every few thousand years anyway, so even if she taught it to someone else, it would be lost through the long pa.s.sage of time—to anyone else, this was a cultivation technique that couldn’t even compare to Yellow Grade low level cultivation technique since no one else could cultivate in it. Who would actually want to preserve it for thousands of years?
Liu Yu Tong could not help feeling a little disappointed. Previously her heart was trembling in excitement, and if Ling Han had just used a few sweet words to pamper her a bit, her good feelings towards Ling Han would definitely increase; however, Ling Han simply did not bear such thoughts, and so he missed an excellent opportunity.
She walked towards the table, and began to eat. While slowly eating, she said, “From tomorrow onwards, I will have to enter seclusion to tackle the ninth layer of Element Gathering Tier, so I won’t be able to follow you around in this period.”
“Ha ha, don’t worry, don’t worry! I have no plans to go anywhere these two days, I will simply wait for Zhu He Xin to deliver the medicinal ingredients. I plan to heal my Spirit Base first before doing anything else,” Ling Han said. He treasured this second life very much. Now that his Spirit Base was injured, he definitely did not want to take unnecessary risks and ruin his own foundation in martial arts.
Liu Yu Tong did not waste time. Once she finished eating, she entered seclusion to break through to the ninth layer of Element Gathering Tier. Ling Han could only yield the inner chamber to her and move his bed to the outer chamber.
Ling Zhong Kuan and his group felt immeasurable hatred towards Ling Han, but thanks to Liu Yu Tong’s presence, they absolutely did not dare have any crazy ideas. Ling Han seldom came out, and only waited quietly for Zhu He Xin to deliver the medicine and for Liu Yu Tong to come out of seclusion, thus making it even more difficult for them to act.
As expected, Zhu He Xin did not go back on his word and, on the fourth day, personally came to deliver the medicinal ingredients requested by Ling Han. Naturally, the old man also took the chance to consult with Ling Han. In truth, he had wanted to come over these few days, but in his eyes, Ling Han was at the level of a supreme grandmaster, so he didn’t dare to come and disturb him for no reason.
However, Ling Han did not have much patience today and very quickly saw Zhu He Xin off. He wanted to immediately start concocting, heal his Spirit Base and once again return to the path of cultivation.
To Ling Han, concocting medicine was naturally a piece of cake. After only three minutes, he had finished concocting the Element Heart Recover Spirit Powder—he did not stay idle these three days; aside from cultivating Indestructible Heaven Scroll, he naturally had completed the preparatory work.
“Concoctions are really too bitter, ai!” Ling Han sighed as he swallowed the Element Heart Recover Spirit Powder completely.
Not long after, a heat-like energy attacked his body, and he suddenly had the feeling that there was some sort of fire burning within his body. Upon examining his Dantian, he saw that the damaged Spirit Base was currently slowly recovering, and would be fully recovered within no more than half a day.
Within this time period, he could not do anything else, so he simply waited patiently.
To someone who had been in “slumber” for ten thousand years, half a day’s wait naturally meant little.
Slowly, within Ling Han’s Dantian, the Five Elements Mix Chaos Lotus completely bloomed, very natural and beautiful, too wonderful for words.
[1] ED/N: Not 100% sure about that, but I think that this expression has two meanings: one that he meant his subordinates, and another that he meant his women. At the very least I encountered this expression in the exactly same context in several other novels.
