Chapter 48
“Don’t be so angry Le! It’s not good for you.” Fu Chen speechlessly pulled her back to the room while he asked the maids to clean up the mess. He also took the spatial ring and those scrolls with him.
Outside the room,
“It seems Miss is going to have a hard time from now on.” One of the maids spoke.
“Of course, they won’t let her fall in love with a person they don’t agree with. This is a Great Family we are talking about. ” The second maid spoke with a trace of sadness in her eyes.
“Do….. do you think Miss can succeed?” Suddenly, the third maid asked with a little hesitation in her tone.
The first and the second maid looked at her and suddenly remembered something. They sighed and patted the third maid’s shoulder.
“Let’s just pray that the Miss will succeed and we will be free of our cursed fate.” The first maid spoke with a bright smile showing positivity in her expression.
“But, don’t do anything stupid. I know you hate the Xue family for what they have done to your father and mother, but you should know that you can’t do anything to them.” Unlike the first maid, the second maid warned her.
Two of them were lucky. Normally in these kinds of families, servants and maids have a tragic life. Their parents are used by their masters and they have to start working from the tender age of eight.
Neither parents nor children with servant status get a good life in the Great Families.
The third maid closed her eyes tightly and sighed “I know. I won’t make any mistakes. I just hope that the Miss will bring some change in our lives.”
The first and second maids looked at her and sighed. Although having a belief is good, it won’t come true. Nobody cares about the servants. Even if she managed to make some changes, it won’t affect them.
They know their fate will never change. Being used by their masters is their destiny as a servant.
Inside the room,
“How can I not get angry at that son of bitch? All those techniques and arts have shortcoming that kills the practicers. If you train all of them and make even a single mistake, you will undoubtedly die.”
“You can’t do this, Chen. Please for me, don’t do this!” Xue Le went as far as to even beg to not practice these techniques.
Fu Chen took a deep breath and pulled her close.
The next moment, he pushed his lips over her, leaving her speechless for a moment. For this kiss, he didn’t do anything else. He just kissed.
After five minutes, he left her lips and spoke “Calm down! First, I am not an idiot. Second, if I couldn’t understand the truth, I would’ve lost against Jian Shen. Third, there is something wrong with my talent but I can’t tell you what it is.”
“The only way for me to get stronger is by training something impossible, something that can truly grant me the strength way above my talent. That’s the path I have chosen and I will do it no matter how much hard work I have to put in it.”
Hearing his words, Xue Le almost bursts into tears. She couldn’t stop him but she didn’t want him to walk into this death trap. But, as he said, he wasn’t stupid.
She took a deep breath and looked straight into his eyes.
“If you die practicing these techniques, I will kill your parents and then kill myself.”
She wanted to say I will kill myself but she still knows his parents rank way higher in his heart. So, even if it was hard to say, she still decided to threaten him.
Fu Chen bitterly smiled. He didn’t lose his mind over the threat but he was still scared. If he makes a single mistake, his parents will die and he knows Xue Le wasn’t kidding.
He truly doesn’t want to die.
But, what if the system ever leaves him?
That would be the end of everything, wouldn’t it? So, he must do everything to prevent himself from falling to the bottom once the system leaves him.
He took a deep breath and nodded his head “Don’t worry, I won’t die. Now, let’s see try these techniques and martial arts.”
Thunder Body Forging Technique- It was a body refining technique that allows him to condense the Thunder Aura. Once this aura is condensed, he can use it for increasing his speed, create a strong defensive aura shield and manipulate the aura to form the weapons.
It also has the further stages but even to practice the first stage, he needs an extremely strong body. He needs the strength of almost fifty tigers.
Fortunately, his current strength is the strength of fifty-two tigers. Even so, he isn’t going to simply ignore the dangers of this cultivation technique.
Although he doesn’t know how the system managed to increase his cultivation without raising any suspicion, he knew his body has lost a lot of its foundation.
So, he can’t be careless.
Golden Sun Cultivation Technique- Unlike any other cultivation technique, this technique absorbs the essence of the sun hence it can only be practiced during the day. And, at the noon, its effect raises up to its maximum.
But, the essence is the sun is extremely hot to the point it could even burn his blood veins and meridians. Thankfully, it seems the sect master didn’t watch his battle with Zhu Tan.
In the middle of the battle, Fu Chen used his Martial Spirit to transform Zhu Tan’s spiritual Qi into pure spiritual qi. In the surrounding, only the pure spiritual qi exists.
Once absorbed by a person, it becomes his spiritual qi and if it is extremely strong, then a person can control another person by transferring spiritual qi inside it.
He can even kill others with it. That’s why normally others do not dare to absorb others’ Spiritual Qi. But, he has no problem. With his first innate ability of his Martial Spirit, he can transform any kind of energy into pure Spiritual Qi.
That means even Sun Essence can be transformed into pure Spiritual Qi. This ability is called ‘Devour’. He awakened it during his battle with Zhu Tan and it is extremely mysterious. Because he can absorb and refine any kind of energy, no matter what kind it might be.
As long as it’s not heading towards him with an intention to harm him, he can refine it. Of course, the incident that happened with Zhu Tan won’t happen again. Nobody has such an amount of Spiritual Qi to form a cloak and openly reveal it.
Normally, people will hide their Spiritual Qi. And the Spiritual Qi which is used as an attack can’t be devoured.
But, there was another problem. Normally, Sun Essence is absorbed for the sake of comprehending Fire Element and using Fire for combat. People with a Fire physique can do this but he can’t.
He isn’t sure if his body can absorb the sun’s essence and refine it. HE must transform it into pure Spiritual Qi and absorb it but it will indeed make his cultivation faster by five times.
Dragon Steps- This was a deadly intention of the sect master. To practice this technique, one needs to torture his own leg under gravity and a large boulder. One needs to kick thousand times on the boulder and one even needs to roast the leg on flame.
All of these are to make the leg stronger. Even once it is done, it is an incomplete Martial Art. That means he can never achieve the full potential of that training with this martial art.
Thirteen Lonely Blooming Peach Sword Art- It was an extremely feminine sword art. Of course, nobody would dare to laugh when it is performed with perfection since it is the deadliest sword art.
But, if it is used in its mediocre form, it will simply form the blooming peaches all around the sword and give a stunningly good visual with no powers of attack.
It wasn’t deadly for him but for his reputation, it certainly could make a lot of difference.
Iron Shirt- It was good defensive art. Normally, there are no problems but its training method is just like Dragon Steps. Except here, he must smash his body with a hammer to make his skin stronger than iron.
Not only does it damage the skin, but its main problem is also the damage caused to the bones. After all, the effect of a hammer would strike at the bone.
“It seems every single one of them is a strong but deadly technique. I can’t be careless even once while training.” Fu Chen muttered after finishing reading those scrolls.
“So, are you going to start your training now?” Xue Le asked with a worried expression.
Fu Chen shook his head and said “Let’s eat something first! It is already evening. I also need some rest. As for the training, I planned to train these techniques and arts at night while I have something else to do during the day.”
