Ancient Strengthening Technique: Chapter 7 – Impurities Cleansing

Qing Shui had never felt better in his entire life! It was akin to someone dying of thirst in the desert and suddenly a huge source of water appearing in front of him. This sense of contentment was a type of feeling that resonates with both one’s body and soul.

Qing Shui slowly walked out of the basement.

“Mother dearest..” Qing Shui jubilantly called out.

Qing Yi was pleasantly surprised, Qing Shui had only been mediating for a short while. She still had not recovered from the elation she felt when Qing Shui entered the meditative state with ease, and now Qing Shui appeared to have completed his training.

“Mother, I have managed condensed Qi! However, it is very thin, just like a strand of hair.”

These words left Qing Yi dumbfounded. Her graceful, jade-like face turned red and her lips started to tremble..

“Qing Shui, quickly give me your hand!” Qing Yi eagerly said.

Qing Shui obediently obeyed, presenting his hands to Qing Yi. Qing Yi extended her own graceful, snow-white and jade-like hands, taking Qing Shui hands into hers.

“Qing Shui, quickly circulate your Qi based on the formula of the Blue Lotus Art.”

After awhile, Qing Yi emotionally embraced Qing Shui and kissed him twice on his cheeks.

“Shui’er, you are a genius… a real genius.” Qing Shui said with a hint of excitement in her voice. Of course, Qing Yi would only lose her composure in front of her son.

Seeing how happy Qing Yi was, Qing Shui’s heart was also filled with warmth. He knew that although Qing Yi usually appeared to be very happy and always wore a smile on her face, she was merely acting strong for his sake. This time though, Qing Shui knew that Qing Yi was genuinely happy from the depths of her heart.

“Mother will be going first to prepare some delicacies for my little genius.” Qing Yi said while she patted Qing Shui’s head lovingly.

After Qing Yi left, Qing Shui shook his head in helplessness. His actual age was not that much younger than Qing Yi’s. However, with his current small body frame, he would have to talk in a way similar to that of a child. He also felt that the praises he received from adults were said in a nauseously sweet manner.

With a mother like this, even if the heavens tumbled down Qing Shui would still be unconcerned, Qing Shui only wish right now was for this woman whom he called mother to be happy.

It may be because of her good mood recently, but she had a much better appetite compared to the past. It was the same for Qing Shui, but he did not know that the actual reason for this was because of his intensive training as well as the fact that he could finally relax and be happy.

“Mother, let me go out to stretch my legs for now. I will join the rest of our clan members for cultivation practice tomorrow.”

Qing Shui was blinking his beautiful eyes and smiled at her with a hint of confidence that had been absent until now. He did not believe that he was weaker than the rest of the 3rd generation martial students.

Qing Shui would only show this smile containing a childish countenance in front of Qing Yi.

And everytime Qing Yi saw Qing Shui’s beautiful eyes, her memories would dredged up involuntarily, she could not help but become distracted, albeit recovering quickly.

Qing Shui walked out of Qing Mansion and returned to a secret cave he discovered during his time of exploring the mountains. For the past few days, this cave was the place where he had practised the Ancient Strengthening Technique.

The cave was very small, only having the space of a single room. When Qing Shui first discovered the cave, he was filled with excitement and carried the hope of finding some mysterious treasure or top tier martial arts manuals within it. Contrary to his expectations, he found neither of the above. He only found a thumb-sized piece of oval jade pendant after ransacking the cave. The pendant was somewhat worn and tattered, initially he did not want to keep it. However, as he took a closer look at it, he noticed that there was a Yin-Yang symbol inscribed on the pendant! Thus, he decided to keep it. The pendant produced a warm feeling when he touched it.

He was reminded of the Yin-Yang symbol within his sea of consciousness and decided to wear the pendant around his neck, hidden inside his clothes.
