Martial Saint through Reading

The Silver-haired Elder and Old Man Shi spared no effort in burning their Qi Blood to hasten their journey.

By the latter half of the day, they finally arrived at the Imperial Mausoleum Cold Abyss.

"Where is he?"

"Did he escape again?!"

Old Man Shi gazed at the swirling black mist, both anxious and furious.

The Silver-haired Elder wore a sullen expression, reaching out her hand.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Three Proverb Fragments used to set up the True Intent Space flew back responsively.

Clutching the fragments, she communicated with her Heart Spirit, as if investigating something.

In just a moment, her gaze suddenly congealed.

"Can you track him?" Old Man Shi asked.

The Silver-haired Elder looked at Old Man Shi, a glimpse of unprecedented delight in her eyes.

"What is it?" Old Man Shi immediately sensed something.

"It’s that boy," said the Silver-haired Elder.

"Chu Ming?"

"Yes."

"Chu Ming mastered the Destruction True Intent only a few months ago. How could he achieve Minor Success so quickly... wait! He went from Minor Success to Great Success in half a day!"

"Wait... wait....." Old Man Shi’s eyes also suddenly brightened, as if he realized something unbelievable.

"Chu Ming, Sea of Qi Realm, Minor Success?" he asked.

The Silver-haired Elder nodded.

"Are you saying that a few days ago, the one who appeared in the Cold Abyss, heavily wounded Tantai Xiu using a Primordial Technique, and showcased Minor Success in both Destruction and Golden Gang Undying True Intent, was Chu Ming?!"

The Silver-haired Elder nodded again.

"Seventeen years old, Middle Stage of the Sea of Qi Realm, Late-stage of Nascent Qi Realm, severely injured Tantai Xiu?!"

"Seventeen years old, mastered Destruction True Intent in one day, then remarkably elevated both Destruction and Golden Gang Undying True Intent from Minor Success to Great Success in half a day?!"

Old Man Shi spoke, his eyebrows uncontrollably excited.

This time, the Silver-haired Elder, brimming with surprise and shock, said, "Old Man Shi, you missed one thing."

"What?"

"The True Intent Space created by the Nine Heavens Trapping Body Proverb was not broken, but Chu Ming used Great Success True Intent... to escape."

"Hmm?"

"Good! Good! Good!"

"We must find this boy!"

"Go to the Qin Dynasty capital?"

"He somehow managed to break open the True Intent Space prematurely, clearly aware of our arrival, indicating that this boy is extremely cautious."

"With such a meticulous mind, wary of us, it is almost improbable for him to stay in the Qin Dynasty."

"What should we do then?"

"This boy can no longer be called a genius; he’s beyond extraordinary. Even those top three young ones in the Celestial Alliance’s Heavenly Realm might not have such astounding talent."

Old Man Shi was visibly enthusiastic, his eyebrows dancing with excitement.

"Let’s continue searching in the Qin Dynasty for now."

"..."

...

After leaving the Yan Imperial Mausoleum, Chu Ming fled southward until he returned to the borders of the Jingyue Kingdom, to the mountain range where he previously secluded himself.

He spent half a day adjusting in the mountain, consolidating his understanding of Destruction and Golden Gang Undying True Intents.

Then, with a flip of his hand, he took out the peculiar Blood Bead that stirred his inner greed.

"Time to investigate."

"Previously, while being pursued by Second Senior Brother Ming Lu and Third Senior Sister, the Blood Bead responded to a call near the border between Jingyue Kingdom and the Qin Dynasty."

He oriented himself and then soared into the sky, heading toward the border between the two nations.

...

The Jingyue Kingdom originally had three National Guardian Realm experts.

They were Lux Ning at the initial Nascent Primordial Qi stage of the Sixth Realm Primordial Qi Warrior, Shang Yi at the middle stage of the Sixth Realm Martial Arts Sea of Qi, and their Senior Brother Yann Luo at the Late-stage of the Sea of Qi.

Since the weakest Lux Ning was killed by the You Wudang of the Nine Hordes’ Nether Witch Horde, Shang Yi and Yann Luo frequently waged campaigns against the Nine Hordes.

Due to the actual circumstances in the Nine Hordes, their four National Guardian Realm individuals, You Wuba, You Wudang were first slain by Chu Ming, followed by the Suanni Horde Master and Xianyun Horde Lord being killed by the Black and White Divine Palace’s Netherworld Office, causing a leaderless chaos.

The result was that the Nine Hordes fell into internal disorder and external invasion by multiple nations.

At this moment, at the border between the Nine Hordes Kingdom and Jingyue Kingdom.

Yellow sand filled the sky, military camps spread across the land.

Blackqing, the undefeated General of Jingyue Kingdom, sat in the main tent of the army camp.

"General, the Nine Hordes have practically no power to resist, but the Qin Dynasty also seized the opportunity to attack. According to the current route, our army will confront the Tiger Armor Army of the Qin Dynasty head-on at the Yellow Sand Plain."

The Deputy General reported with a salute.

"No worries, rest for half a day and maintain the march."

"Yes."

The Deputy General exited, and Blackqing turned into his inner tent.

Ensuring no one was around, he first took out a first-tier vine stick, the length of his forearm, to inspect.

"What kind of treasure is this? Indestructible, yet it absorbs Qi Blood and flesh like an evil entity..."

"Holding it stirs my inner greed. If not for the accompanying Black Pupil, I’m afraid I would have already become a puppet manipulated by this vine stick..."
