Chapter 140: Cheng Han's Profound Path of the Xuan Shi

All kinds of commotion lasted longer than Cheng Han had anticipated.

For three consecutive days, the Qian family welcomed wave after wave of guests.

Some brought precious ingredients, others brought valuable gifts, and some brought both.

There were even those who directly handed out red envelopes, a simple and direct approach that was pleasing.

Due to the large number of guests, Qian Yiqing and his wife were so busy that they didn't even have a chance to drink water. Even Qian Changyun, their child, was forced to come out and "receive guests."

However, all of this had little to do with Cheng Han.

The next four days of condensing the Body Tempering Seal were the most critical period for strengthening the body.

There were only two things he needed to do - focus on eating and focus on practicing.

The former was to replenish nutrition.

The latter was to train the Nine Elements Battle Technique, constantly refining the limbs and bones with the synergistic effect of "spirit" and "strength" to achieve better physical strengthening effects.

Even the commander of the Black Armor Army would not come to disturb him at this time, let alone others.

In the backyard of the Qian family.

The original large garden was half leveled overnight, and Qian Yiqing urgently had someone build a large makeshift greenhouse as Cheng Han's training room.

Cheng Han had been staying here for the past few days.

This place was temporarily designated as a "restricted area," and even Qian Yiqing and his wife did not come here, fearing that they would disturb him.

Only Qian Qingqing would come by from time to time to take a look and feed him.

By the way, she would play some tricks between a young boy and girl.

For example:

"Hey!"

The little girl shouted crisply, raised her hand, and threw a handful of nuts.

Dozens of nuts flew quickly in various directions, like a fairy scattering flowers.

Twelve meters away.

Cheng Han made a "capturing the dragon" gesture and made a virtual grab with both hands.

The nuts flying in the sky all turned sharply in mid-air, following a strange path of "snake-like movement," and finally fell into the fruit plate on the corner table.

This scene was quite pleasing to the eye.

At the same time, Cheng Han clearly sensed that with the use of the "capturing the dragon" technique, the wonderful heat flow generated by the Body Tempering Seal quickly penetrated deep into the bones and tendons.

This was the effect of refining the Nine Elements Martial Technique.

"So amazing!"

Qian Qingqing couldn't help but applaud.

Cheng Han smiled slightly and didn't say anything.

This "show of skill" was not just "so amazing."

In the eyes of discerning warriors, although the movement routes of each nut looked like snake-like movements, there were obvious differences.

In other words, this was a powerful technique that could be used for at least thirty different purposes with a single-minded focus.

Not to mention ordinary Black Armor Army soldiers, even the commander of a battalion would find it difficult to master this highly difficult technique.

And in these past few days, he had been focusing on comprehending (deducing) the application techniques of the Body Tempering Seal combined with the Nine Elements Strong Body Technique, and his martial skills had made great progress.

At this moment, Cheng Han suddenly turned his head to the right.

He caught the sound of conversation drifting over from the other side of the large garden.

"Huh? How did a house get built here?"

"I came to Uncle Yiqingtang's house half a year ago, and I remember there wasn't this house."

"Such a beautiful garden. Uncle Yiqingtang spends thirty gold coins every year to maintain it, but now it's been flattened to build a house. What a pity."

"Let's go and take a look!"

Qian Qingqing noticed Cheng Han's movement and instantly understood that there was activity in the garden. She immediately asked, "Did someone come?"

Cheng Han nodded lightly, "Two people! They might be your relatives."

Qian Qingqing's pretty face instantly darkened, and she quickly pushed the door and walked out.

The little girl glanced around and indeed spotted two suspicious figures.

They were the sons of two of her uncles. Because they were of similar age, they were currently in the fourth grade of middle school and had a very good relationship.

Qian Qingqing's tone was quite impolite, "Qian Renhui, Qian Liangwen, the entrance to the garden has been sealed off. How did you manage to break in? Get out immediately!"

A taller boy tried to explain, "Qingqing cousin, we were just curious, so..."

Qian Qingqing became even colder, "There are so many guests in the front yard, and everyone is consciously avoiding the backyard. Don't you really know the reason?"

"Knowing that it's inappropriate but still doing it, and deliberately using 'curiosity' as an excuse, not only makes people feel hypocritical, but also reveals a lack of responsibility and cowardice."

The two boys looked embarrassed.

The little girl scolded sternly, "There are several sentinels in the front yard who also avoid the garden because they know that a powerful warrior is honing his martial skills there."

"You two sneaking into the training ground is a very reckless act and a foolish move that shows a lack of responsibility for your own lives."

One of the boys argued defiantly, "We just came to take a look. What's the big deal?"

As soon as he finished speaking.

A light laughter sounded in their ears.

It was Cheng Han.

His voice carried a hint of playfulness, "Indeed, it's not a big deal. But sometimes, I practice a few spiritual martial skills from the Nine Elements Battle Technique."

"Foolishly sneaking into the garden without saying hello, if you were affected by the power of the martial skills, the probability of becoming an idiot might be more than half..."

Cheng Han deliberately elongated his tone, "For example, the thirteenth style, 'Returning Soul Style'!"

"Boom!"

A light shout.

The volume of this shout wasn't loud.

But to the two boys' ears, it was like a thunderous roar.

"Boom!"

In the next instant.

The scenery in front of the two of them suddenly underwent a strange change.

The colors of the world quickly faded, turning into black and white. For example, the evergreen trees that were originally lush green turned into an ugly black and gray, as if they were about to wither.

Then.

Even more terrifying things happened.

"Crack! Crack!"

Thick cracks appeared out of thin air, rapidly increasing in number, stretching across the air.

This scene seemed as if the world was about to collapse.

"Ah~"

"Oh my god~"

The two boys were scared out of their wits.

In an instant.

A majestic voice descended.

"Condense!"

The world has returned to its original state.

Colors have also returned.

But the fear in the eyes of the two teenagers is still so intense that it's about to burst out.

The two of them glanced at each other and hurriedly left, as if there was a fierce evil chasing after them.

Finally, the two teenagers realized that the Qian family's prohibition of guests entering the garden was not out of arrogance or to deceive guests, but for the safety of the guests.

Qian Qingqing was both surprised and amused.

She quickly returned to the training room and asked curiously, "What did you do to those two idiots? I've never seen them so scared."

Cheng Han evasively replied, "Just a little trick."

The little girl didn't ask any further and said, "Okay."

Cheng Han smiled and said, "I guess for a long time in the future, they won't dare to step into this garden or even come to your house."

Qian Qingqing didn't care about this and said, "If they don't come, they don't come. They're just two annoying guys."

*

For the two annoying boys, their misfortune is not over yet.

Their reckless actions did not go unnoticed, and the news quickly reached their parents' ears.

"Smack!"

The boy named Qian Renhui received a heavy slap on his face.

The one who struck him was his mother.

The lady scolded angrily, "Do you know what you're doing? Qingqing is right, you're a brainless idiot!"

She was so angry that her hands were trembling, "One of the deputy school lieutenants of the Black Armor Army just came, and he stayed peacefully in the front yard without approaching the backyard. But you, this clever little thing, recklessly rushed into the garden."

The boy's father, with fire in his eyes, said, "Qian Renhui, if you dare to step out of the house this winter break, I'll break your legs!"

Qian Renhui was trembling with fear.

But the anger of this couple was not yet appeased.

They knew very well that if the talented young man in the garden had even the slightest complaint, their whole family would be in trouble, and their son would have no future.

And all of this, even without the intervention of the talented young man, there were plenty of people willing to do it.

Now, the more severely their son is punished, the better it is for his future.

"Smack!"

The boy received another slap.

This time, it was his father who struck him.

Accompanied by a fierce roar, "Go home immediately!"

*

As for the unfortunate child Qian Renhui, Cheng Han only heard about his experience from the little girl afterwards, and he just smiled it off.

It was the fifth day since Cheng Han started practicing seals.

The commotion in the Qian family had finally subsided after several days.

But that was only on the surface.

In secret, countless pairs of eyes were closely watching every move of this family.

Early in the morning, Cheng Han finished his breakfast, which was eight times the amount of an ordinary person, and walked out of the garden for the first time.

Qian Qingqing and her mother worked together to put on the black armor on him, piece by piece.

The material used to make the armor was the scales of the "Lingtou" monster fish, which was the extraordinary fish killed by the "Blazing Silk" with the help of the black cat's claw, near the ice lake.

Following Cheng Han's request, the Qian family had invited a skilled craftsman to customize this set of armor.

Qian Qingqing glanced at his calm face and asked with some concern, "Do you really have to go?"

Cheng Han nodded and said, "Every soldier must find their own 'path' in order to progress further, and my 'path' needs to be found in battle."

The so-called 'path' is essentially a systematic method that drives the continuous growth of Body Tempering, ultimately transforming into the 'Soul Tempering Seal'.

Naturally, this is a lie.

The truth is, he wants to hunt down transcendent creatures, obtain transcendent materials to refine secret medicine, and also analyze knowledge from monsters to complete several remaining seals and mysterious seals.

The Blue Flag Extermination Team that was previously recovered provided many clues about transcendent creatures, and he felt that it was time to harvest them.

The little girl sighed and ultimately did not persuade him any further.

Mrs. Qian's expression was somewhat complex, showing both concern and gratification.

Qian Yiqing was more supportive, saying, "Condensing the Body Tempering Seal is just the beginning. Only through blood and fire can one reach a higher level."

Qian Changyun stared covetously at the armor and without thinking, echoed, "A good warrior aspires to conquer the world, to eliminate all the strangeness and eradicate everything..."

The sentence was not finished.

The child's head was then struck.

"You big-headed ghost!"

It was Qian Qingqing's words.

Qian Changyun had become increasingly afraid of his sister recently. In the past, he dared to mutter a few words, but now this child was in pain, gritting his teeth, and didn't dare to make a sound.

Soon.

"Click!"

Accompanied by the sound of a buckle.

The complete set of armor was put on.

The design of this set of armor was quite good, and the craftsmanship was also quite exquisite. Cheng Han completely changed his appearance, exuding a strong aura of heroism from head to toe.

Qian Qingqing nodded repeatedly, saying, "It looks really good!"

Qian Yiqing was also somewhat tempted.

Mrs. Qian became more and more satisfied the more she looked at it.

Qian Changyun was envious to death and pleaded with his parents, "Brother-in-law has killed many Lingtu, and there are still many scales and bones left. Can you buy them and make me a set too?"

The little girl bluntly refuted, "Only warriors can wear battle armor. It would be as ridiculous as a monkey wearing clothes for an ordinary person to put it on."

Mrs. Qian didn't indulge her son, saying, "Your sister is right, you are far from qualified."

Cheng Han held a short spear and inserted it into the slot behind the armor.

This was a short spear specially customized by Qian Yiqing, and it was also the main weapon for hunting transcendent creatures on this trip.

Qian Qingqing and her mother immediately came forward to help, inserting the remaining five spears one by one.

Then.

Cheng Han bid farewell to the Qian family of four, rode on a feathered beast, and headed towards the gate of the community.

Along the way.

The residents of the community they encountered all stopped to watch, their eyes filled with admiration.

Before long.

The news spread throughout the community like a whirlwind from the Qian family - the genius teenager is about to enter the wilderness to hone himself and explore his path as a mysterious scholar.

Woke up from a nap and received a high-quality badge, haha!

Also.
