When Tang Luo emerged from the Minor Spiritual Realm once again, his gaze collided unintentionally with Ji Fu’s gaze, who looked confused.
“What are you looking at? I’ve cleared the fifth floor of the Blood God’s palace, the Blood God is now dormant, what’s the use of me staying in there?” Tang Luo shouldered his hammer, speaking with ill temper to Ji Fu. Due to his farewell to the Demon King a few days ago, he was not in a good mood now.
Ji Fu, long accustomed to Tang Luo’s arrogant attitude, calmly responded, “Since that’s the case, the Minor Spiritual Realm no longer needs you. Your clan brothers and sisters have also awakened,Don’t you want to see them?”
The second day after Tang Luo led the craftsmen into the Minor Spiritual Realm, the frightened Tang Clan siblings woke up. The first thing they did after waking up was to answer questions from the three parties.
Because they were sent to the Minor Spiritual Realm on behalf of these three parties, they were obligated to report to all three. Ji Fu believed the carefully crafted narrative without any suspicion, presuming that because of the Blood God, these youngsters didn’t make it to the fifth floor of the palace.
Xu Lao Ying, however, frowned throughout the duration of the report as he could sense the undertones of wild joy and anticipation in the hearts of the children apart from their fear and shock. What a peculiar reaction for those who have just escaped from danger.
“Forget it, as long as everything has been agreed on, there shouldn’t be any more trouble now.” He thought, maintaining normal composure and allowing the report to pass.
The twenty-fifth of May
Auspicious: Worship, Embalm, bury, return home
Taboo: Set bed, marriage, use stove
When Tang Luo returned after a two-month absence, Xu Shuhui, who had been scared and worried for the past month, couldn’t help but burst into tears.
Even though she knew the two children were already grown-ups, she couldn’t restrain her excitement. Hugging the young boy, she touched his small face and murmured, “It’s good that you’re back, it’s good that you’re back.”
Returning to the familiar dining room of his home, Tang Luo felt a sense of unprecedented relaxation.
When he was home, eating familiar food and surrounded by his family, only then could Tang Luo shed his facade as a martial artist and simply be a son and older brother.
Intrigue and deception, even struggles to the death are commonplace for a martial artist. The ordeal within the Minor Spiritual Realm was simply another mission. He was quite satisfied with his performance, but the death of his clan sister, Tang Ya, and the resolved departure of the Demon King left a heavy feeling in his heart.
Naturally, the family feast included Xu Lao Ying. He tried to appease Xu Shuhui, “Auntie, I told you that my cousin would be fine.”
In the past month, Xu Lao Ying was the only person Xu Shuhui could confide in. As a consequence, he had to console an inconsolable elder each day. So, he was the most excited about the return of Tang Luo and Tang Xing; it signified the end of his arduous days.
Xu Shuhui, who was serving the two teenagers some food, responded to her nephew’s comment irritably, “What do you mean he is fine? My child Luo Er dispersed his cultivation to enter the Minor Spiritual Realm. His current Spiritual Power is only of the Mortal Realm. If this isn’t a problem, then what is?”
Although her older son was constantly troubled by the problem of cleansing his cultivation, the reconstruction process over the years still solidified his foundation. He managed to retain his cultivation after cleansing, but had to fall back into the Mortal Realm to save his younger son. This was a major concern to her. Her worried gaze focused on Tang Luo.
The younger son, who was busily eating, looked troubled when he heard his mother’s words. He turned his head to look at his brother.
“Clang-”
With a familiar action and familiar feeling, a blow to the head snapped him back to his senses. Tang Luo blandly said, “Eat your food.”
He then turned to his mother, Xu Shuhui, “Mother, don’t worry. I have a lot of experience in rebuilding my cultivation. It won’t take long to return to the Mortal Realm.”
Xu Lao Ying looked shocked upon hearing Tang Luo’s comment, he asked in disbelief, “Little brother, do you often rebuild your cultivation?”
“Lao Ying, you have no idea.” Xu Shuhui said with a bitter expression, “Bu Xiao at Martial Saint Mountain said your cousin has a unique physique. In fact, he broke through the Mortal Realm when he was thirteen. However, his cultivation has been fluctuating in the past two years. He had barely stabilized at the Mortal Realm only to fall back into the Mortal Realm for the sake of saving Xing Er.”
This was the first time that Xu Lao Ying learned of his cousin’s peculiar physique. But according to his aunt, his cousin was even more terrifying! He frequently cleansed his cultivation and reached the peak of the Mortal Realm at the tender age of fifteen; how incredible must his talent be?
Astonished, Xu Lao Ying gaped at Tang Luo.
Tang Luo was aware of Xu Lao Ying’s misunderstanding.
Because of the patriarch’s gag order, his mother, Xu Shuhui, didn’t know about his peak Mortal Realm status. Since Tang Luo knew of his mother’s propensity to brag, he chose not to tell her about it either.
He realized what a blow it was for Xu Lao Ying to suddenly learn that he was, in fact, at the peak of the Mortal Realm. Tang Luo glanced at him and asked, “What are you looking at? Haven’t you seen someone as handsome as I am?”
Xu Lao Ying awkwardly said, “Whether you’re handsome or not doesn’t matter much, but your talent is quite frightening.”
“Glad you know that. So, you better keep practicing. Don’t still be at your Mortal Realm, while I reach the Fierce Realm!”
Xu Lao Ying was shocked by Tang Luo’s words, he defensively retorted, “Little brother, isn’t that underestimating me? Even if you have a better talent, you still have to start over from the Mortal Realm, while I am already a martial artist at the peak of Mortal Realm, can you progress faster than me to the Fierce Realm?”
“Let’s hope so.” Tang Luo didn’t bother to argue further, only responded lightly, focusing back on his meal.
Everyone believed that he had dispersed his cultivation to enter the Minor Spiritual Realm, but he knew better. It was merely an illusion of channeling spiritual power into the stars.
When he entered the Minor Spiritual Realm on the eighteenth of April, his spiritual power was 15259.2. Since he couldn’t cultivate in the Minor Spiritual Realm, his daily increment dropped from 34.2 to 27, even the stars from the Star Pavilion couldn’t stabilize it. Both the younger son and himself couldn’t cultivate for an entire month.
Twenty-seven points of spiritual power per day amounted to 810 points in a month. Unfortunately, the usage of Immortal Wind Cloud Body Technique and other mortal-level Spirit Arts cost him 400 points of spiritual power.
So, the eighteenth of May when he exited, he only gained 410 points, his spiritual power was 15669.2 as opposed to the expected 16069.2.
Having peacefully lived for three days, his increment returned to 33 points per day because of his brother’s unconscious state. So, Tang Luo entered the Minor Spiritual Realm again on the twenty-first of May with 15768.2 spiritual power. But in order to condense the second Mortal Realm star, he had to spend 2999 points of spiritual power.
Thus, as of today, Tang Luo’s spiritual power was down to 12877.2 points. But the good news was that now that his life was back to normal, his spiritual power could grow at a pace of 34.2 points per day again.
Another year and a half, he could gather enough spiritual power to break into the Fierce Realm, but before that, he had several important things to do.
