Chapter 28: Divine Concentration Pill.
Edited by: Mochiusagi
Although [Eyes of Truth] cannot see through the carriage, Su Qin could still clearly ’see’ the aura inside.
There were indeed people sitting inside the carriage.
However, it’s not just one person, it’s two.
Moreover, one of them is ill and seems to have been poisoned.
Other than this poisoned person, the other person is still young and is, at most, in his/her early ten years.
“The poisoned person is Empress Li?”
Su Qin guessed in his heart, and a thoughtful look flashed through his eyes.
In the past ten years, although Su Qin has not been out of the Shaolin Temple, he has heard some gossip from other disciple’s discussions; and some of that gossip includes a lot about the Imperial Family.
Emperor Tang very much favors Empress Li. For this reason, he had not even summoned the Queen for several years.
If it were not for Empress Li giving birth to a princess instead of a prince, the Palace wouldn’t have been in so much chaos at this moment.
But since it was not like so, as Emperor Tang continued to age, the Palace’s waters continued to become more turbulent.
The prince’s have long had their swords drawn and bows bent.
“Someone in the Imperial Harem had poisoned Empress Li.”
“As a last resort, Empress Li came to the Shaolin Temple to stay for a while in the name of worshipping Buddha.”
In just a moment, Su Qin speculated almost the complete reason why Empress Li came to the Shaolin Temple.
Being able to blatantly poison Empress Li, should mean that it was because of those nobles.
The Palace was so chaotic that Emperor Tang had no choice but to let Empress Li come to the Shaolin Temple.
Sending the Empress in the Shaolin Temple was definitely the best choice for the Empress.
The Shaolin Temple has never interfered with governmental affairs. So as long as Empress Li enters the door of the Shaolin Temple, she is basically safe.
Even if the nobles in the Palace have great abilities, it is impossible to reach their hands into the Shaolin Temple.
Emperor Tang himself probably knew that Empress Li alone would likely be rejected by the Shaolin Temple, so he issued a special edict in order to protect her.
“It is said that the struggle between territories is fierce, but compared with the Palace’s internal strife, it is not worth mentioning…”
Su Qin sighed with emotion.
“In the carriage, besides Empress Li, the other young person should be her daughter, the Princess.”
Su Qin thought silently.
It was impossible for Empress Li to leave her daughter at the Palace.
Just when Su Qin was thinking, the carriage had slowly entered the Shaolin Temple.
In order to prevent disciples from disturbing her, Abbot Hui Wen specially assigned a bamboo forest next to the Handyman Court for Empress Li.
The Handyman Court was in the corner of Shaolin Temple, and the bamboo forest was even more remote than the Handyman Court.
Other than the Handyman Court disciples, it was basically impossible for other disciples to go there.
Abbot Hui Wen’s consideration was very comprehensive. Since he had already accepted Empress Li, he must accommodate her as best as possible. Otherwise, would it not be disrespectful to the guest?
Although Abbot Hui Wen also realized that the Shaolin Temple might get dragged into a big problem, there was nothing he could do.
Can he disobey the Emperor’s edict?
The Court Heads have also warned their disciples to not approach the bamboo forest.
Especially the Handyman Court, as it was right next to the bamboo forest.
After this short episode, Su Qin resumed his previous life.
Although the Shaolin Temple now has the Empress, there was basically no change for Shaolin Temple.
This couldn’t be more true for Su Qin who was just cultivating and Signing In.
On this day, Su Qin was going to the Bodhi Court to Sign In. When passing by the bamboo forest, he suddenly heard a clear voice.
“Little Monk, wait a minute.”
Su Qin turned his head and saw a little girl skipping over to him.
“Young Miss.” Su Qin greeted.
This girl is the daughter of Empress Li and the Princess of the Great Tang Empire.
“You walked so fast.”
The little girl was gasping for breath. She looked at Su Qin with her big black adorable eyes.
“Young Miss, it’s late, you should go back and rest…” Su Qin naturally didn’t want to get involved with the Princess.
In Su Qin’s mind, anyone who dares to disturb his leisurely life at this moment will be slapped to death.
“I just had a good rest.”
The little girl looked at Su Qin cautiously, before saying pitifully, “Can you chat with me for some time? It’s so boring here, I have no one to talk to.”
“Young Miss.”
“I have something to do too.”
Su Qin didn’t want to waste any time on this little girl, so he simply turned and left.
The little girl stood there alone.
“This Little Monk…”
The little girl wrinkled her little nose.
No matter where it was, even in the Imperial Palace, everyone who sees her is respectful and even uneasy.
But this Monk wasn’t. Instead, he seemed to not care about her identity at all.
Also, out of intuition, the little girl faintly felt that this Monk, who had been dismissive of her just now, seemed very simple. Too suspiciously ‘simple’.
Just then.
“Your Highness.”
“Your Highness, are you okay?”
A palace attendant hurriedly walked up to the little girl and asked in panic.
“I’m fine.”
The little girl shook her head, and suddenly asked: “Is Grandpa Hong strong?”
“Mr. Hong?”
The palace attendant was taken aback for a moment, before quickly replying: “Mr. Hong is a red-clothed eunuch pro-appointed by His Majesty. He has a Grade 2 strength, and even in the Imperial Palace, he is considered a great expert. Why did the Young Miss ask?”
Eunuch Hong is the eunuch who escorted Empress Li to the Shaolin Temple.
In these past years, if it weren’t for Eunuch Hong, Empress Li would’ve already died, God knows, how many times.
Even in coming to the Shaolin Temple this time, if it weren’t for Eunuch Hong’s protection along the way, Empress Li would probably have not been able to reach the Shaolin Temple.
“Oh okay…”
The little girl nodded whilst in thought.
…
After getting rid of the Princess, Su Qin finally arrived at the front of the Bodhi Court.
“System, Sign In!”
Su Qin said silently in his heart.
[Congratulations!]
[Signed-In successfully!]
[Obtained medicinal pill ’Divine Concentration Pill’!]
“Divine Concentration Pill?”
Su Qin pupils slightly shrunk.
Divine Concentration Pill is a legendary medicinal pill in the Shaolin Temple. It may not be possible to make one even for hundreds or thousands of years.
In the past ten years, Su Qin had obtained, God knows, how many Divine Accumulation Pills and Great Revitalizing Pills, but this is the first time he obtained a Divine Concentration Pill.
Once a Martial Dao Cultivator reaches Grade 1, if he wants to go further, he needs to cultivate his own Divinity.
Once Divinity is condensed to the extreme, one can condense Divine Sense.
Divine Sense has infinite uses. It can intercept projectiles, probe the surroundings, and even kill people from a distance.
Only after a Grade 1 can condense his Divine Sense, can he touch the Legend Realm.
As for actually breakthrough to the Legend Realm, you need to rely on Divine Sense, the body, and Internal Strength.
Once a Grade 1 Martial Artist condensed Divine Sense, it is equivalent to leaping to a whole new level.
Martial Artists call this level Peak Grade 1.
If even a Grade 1 Great Grandmaster is extremely rare, what more is a Peak Grade 1?
Any one of the Peak Grade 1 is an existence that is expected to break through the Legend Realm.
And if you want to condense Divine Sense, there is another way, besides relying on time and spending tens of hundreds of years to comprehend it.
And that is to take a Divine Concentration Pill!
