Chapter 3: New Journey
Chapter 3: New Journey
In Tan Family Hall
"Brother, it's a new morning. The bloodline hasn't returned." Tan Family's head's brother spoke as he stood beside his brother.
At this moment, Tan Family's head had an ugly expression. He looked at the guard nearby and shouted "Go and bring everything you can find about Qin Che. Hurry up!"
The guard nodded his head and hurriedly left. After a few minutes, he came with a scroll. His brother and head opened the scroll and read the entire scroll. After a few more minutes, they put down the scroll.
"That boy! We had given him the cultivation technique to check his talent but he couldn't cultivate it. It seems he was hiding it so that he doesn't have to get restricted by cultivating our techniques. But, it was said whatever weapon he practice, he can master it. Though it is through hard work of day and night, it is still amazing to master several dangerous fighting styles like Sword Fighting, Spear Fighting, and Blade Fighting."
Suddenly, he raised his hand and smashed the wall near him. Immense energy released out of his body.
"That boy didn't take it for others. He learned this truth somehow and took it for himself. He has been chosen by the bloodline."
These words were like the thunderbolt strikes to everyone's mind. They couldn't comprehend how a servant has so much talent.
"Family Head, don't be so hasty on such a decision! What if the person who has taken the bloodline hasn't opened the pendant? If that is the case then forcing all of our attention on that boy will lead to the real thief to escape." Suddenly, an old man walked into the middle of a hall and spoke.
"Great Elder, are you suggesting me to stop hunting that boy?" Tang Family Head looked at the old man with slight disgust and asked.
"No, you didn't understand my words. Qin Che is a sixteen years old kid who has never tried to steal or even sneak behind the training. He hasn't even touched the cultivation technique. I don't know why he suddenly chose to go against us but that doesn't matter since he has made a grave mistake."
"But, what matters is his cultivation. He doesn't have any cultivation nor does he have a cultivation technique. So, we can assume that he exchanges the pendent for the cultivation technique. He is a smart kid and all of you know the flaws of our cultivation techniques. So, you can understand why I made this point."
"Family Head, we can't make haste. First, we must understand who he is working with. Then, we will strike. This way we won't let a real thief escape while keeping an eye on the kid." The old man suggested as he moved to one of the empty seats and sat there.
Hearing his words, Family Head puts his chin on his hand and thinks. The Great Elder's words made sense to him but these were just speculation. They can't be the truth. And, somehow he feels like Great Elder was saving Qin.
After a deep thought, he stood up and raised his hand "Find out the person who collaborated with Qin Che. Extend the number of guards and send them to search for Qin Che as well. I want to know about that person within two days. And, I also want to know Qin Che's location within two days."
"Now, the meeting is dismissed."
Saying so, he stood up and walks towards the door. But when he passed near great elder, he glanced at him and whispered "I hope you are not colluding with the kid. The end will not be good."
The great elder narrowed his eyes but later revealed a smile without caring about him. At this moment, neither they nor Qin knew anything about the old man and the bloodline.
...
Bang!
Qin clenched his teeth and gritted the pain that he suffered when the meridian gets unblocked. This is why people only stats cultivation at the age of thirteen or fourteen. Some even start at the age of sixteen like Qin.
"Hoo!"
He released a cool breath that was mixed with qi. His qi flowed through the meridian into a dark space under his navel. This space was called Dantian since ancient times. It is said that even heart pales in comparison with it when it comes to importance.
Because when you reach Emperor or Great Emperor Realm, you can even heal your heart as long as your body hasn't disintegrated. The cultivation that he knows starts from Qi Gathering Realm, Qi Condensation Realm, Essence Transformation Realm, Revolving Core Realm, Origin Law Realm, Battle King Realm, Emperor Realm, Great Emperor Realm, and finally Ancestor Realm.
But, no one above Origin Law Realm resides in the Great Ming Kingdom. This was the giant kingdom spread across thousands and thousands of miles. After living in a big family for years, he came to the understanding that this world is a lot bigger than it seems.
There are dozens of cities and hundreds of villages. There are even many regions such as this forest which comes under Saitou Region. It has nearly ten villages under it, ruled by a city called Flame City. This forest was called Eastern Saitou Forest.
Because there are four forests located in four directions. This makes the Saitou Region isolated from another region because villages are between these four forests and the main city is in the middle.
He was currently at the eastern forest which means he has to move from the edge that is more visible to the villages because he can't cross the forest and move from another edge. Qin knew this. So, he hurriedly finishes his cultivation.
Now, he was only in the early period of the first stage. Normally, periods determine your engagement with thinly four periods are startings starting from early, middle, late, and peak. Once a person reaches a peak period, it indicates that he is ready for another breakthrough.
But just when he tried to wrap everything, a new piece of information entered his mind. This made him freeze for a moment.
[Great Tan Bloodline: In an ancient era, Tan Bloodline has prosperous. It was filled with Emperors and Great Emperors. Those who awaken this bloodline are sure to reach Great Emperor and even progress into the further realm.]
[Great Tan Bloodline needs to be awakened three times. One with the Qi, One with the Yin, and One with the Law. Each condition needs to be fulfilled for awakening. Awakening also grants bloodline abilities.]
It was like words displayed in his mind but somehow he was hearing a voice reading these words. He got even more confused when he tried to relate Great Tan Bloodline to Tan Family.
But, his head shook furiously. Great Emperors were like the strongest people in the entire world. Why would a family full of those people live here?
But, then he started making connections. What if a person from the Great Tan Family moved out and created his own family in this ruler part. As a great emperor, he left his bloodline for his children.
'That makes sense except how the hell did I get that bloodline? I know that old man was strong. But, he couldn't steal it himself because there are two Revolving Core Cultivators in the family. I can understand his greed for this bloodline since it could improve his talent.'
'And, if that's the case, it explains why I was able to understand the flow so easily. But then how? Where is that old man? What happened last night? And, even if I have somehow merged with that bloodline that means Tan family will chase me to the end of the world.'
'Oh, man! Oh, man! I messed up. I messed up a big time. What should I do? If they find that I have that bloodline, they will do everything to find me and take that bloodline back. I must do something. I can't let th...ill me.'
'Hmmm... I can visit the farthest city. I must hurry. They should've already sent people to search for me. On the way, I will try to enter the outer part of the forest to hunt some monsters. But there is one problem. I don't have a weapon or... maybe I do.'
Suddenly, a smirk appeared on his lips as he looked at his surroundings. There was a lot of mess. He saw a sword a few meters away. He walked up to the sword sheath and picked it up. He checked if the sword is still usable and it was totally fine. But suddenly, his glance fell on a book.
When he read the title, his excitement grew even more. He hurriedly picked up the book as well. Then, he looked around the scattered mess. This place was completely barren. It is miracle to see people around here.
And, thanks to that none of the items on the old man's house got stolen. Of course, there weren't a lot of things on house. He found two more daggers. Except that, he found nothing that he could bring. He was surprised that he still had his pouch on the waist.
It was all of his wealth. He puts the dagger on his leg and wraps them with a piece of cloth. He puts the book inside his shirt and hangs the sword sheath on his waist.
"Finally, it's time to start my new journey," Qin spoke as he looks at the right side.
