Chapter 6

After hearing the details of the incident, Qin Yide's expression softened, and he waved his hand, saying, "Rong Zhisshi, this is not your fault. Zhao Yong coveted the treasures on Qin Mo, that little brat, and secretly assassinated him, throwing him off a cliff. If such a thing is exposed, it has nothing to do with us."

Pausing for a moment, he smiled sinisterly, "On the contrary, you did a good job, killing Zhao Yong on the spot. No matter what happens afterward, it can't be blamed on us."

"Originally, I ordered you, Rong Zhisshi, to secretly send someone to eliminate that little beast, Qin Mo, just to throw Qin Zhengxing, that old dog, into chaos. Ideally, he would die from excessive grief, saving me a lot of trouble."

"Hmph, hmph! I never thought that Qin Mo, that little beast, would have such good luck. Falling from the cliff of Ten Thousand Ridges, he not only survived unscathed but also broke through to the long-stagnant Ninth Rank of Warrior."

At this point, Qin Yide's face twitched, revealing a ferocious expression as he gritted his teeth, "Twenty years ago, the position of Clan Head should have been mine. But the old dog Qin Zhengxing was too selfish, wanting to pass the position to the next generation, to that little beast, Qin Mo. Such actions are a cancer to our Qin family, and I must completely eradicate the Qin Zhengxing line."

At this moment, the black-robed elder at the head of the table put down his teacup and said in a low voice, "Yide, you are the Deputy Clan Head of the Qin family and will soon take the position of Clan Head. You need to control your temper. Such a disposition will make it difficult for you to be a good Clan Head."

"Father, as long as you are here to guide me," Qin Yide said with a respectful smile.

Beside him, Rong Zhisshi stood with his hands hanging down, even more respectful. This black-robed elder was the Grand Elder of the Qin family, the father of Deputy Clan Head Qin Yide, and the leader of the Elder Line.

The Grand Elder shook his head slightly and said, "Since Qin Mo, that little brat, has survived and returned, this incident will certainly raise Qin Zhengxing's vigilance. From now on, Yide, do not act rashly. After so many years, I have secretly laid out everything. After the clan memorial, you will be able to sit on the Clan Head's position without any trouble."

"The current Clan Head line's only real threat is Qin Zhengxing. As for Qin Mo, if he had grown up smoothly from the age of six to now, he might have been a threat. But now..."

"A newly promoted Warrior, still a greenhorn, can barely rank in the top hundred among the third-generation disciples of the Qin family. Even if given another ten years, he will not amount to much."

At this point, the Grand Elder revealed a sinister smile, "Back then, I did not become the Clan Head, but my son must sit on the Clan Head's position."

"Hmph! Grandfather, Father, it's been eight years, and you still take Qin Mo, that little brat, so seriously," the handsome young man suddenly said with disdain, "Even if Qin Mo had grown up smoothly from the age of six to now, I have the confidence to defeat him in battle."

Hearing this, the Grand Elder and Qin Yide were surprised, then laughed and shook their heads. Although they did not agree with the young man, they did not blame him, as they were quite indulgent with him.

This handsome young man was the Grand Elder's grandson, Qin Yide's son, and the first among the third-generation disciples of the Qin family, Qin Han.

"You, a Third Rank Warrior, are not as strong as the young ones from the Huo and Dong families. And you dare to boast here?" Qin Yide said with a stern face, but there was a smile in his eyes, clearly satisfied with Qin Han's strength.

The Grand Elder also laughed, "The clan memorial, which takes place every ten years, is about to begin. During the 'Qi Guiding' ceremony, if you, Han, can obtain the powerful essence from the ancestors' remains, you will be able to match and even surpass those from the Huo and Dong families. As for Qin Mo, he is yesterday's news, not worth worrying about."

Seeing that the three of them did not believe him, Qin Han frowned and said proudly, "Grandfather, Father, I am telling the truth. Although the true qi of the Huo and Dong families' young ones is slightly stronger than mine, in a real battle, I have a seventy percent chance of defeating them."

"Hmm, you, what are you relying on?" Qin Yide asked, trying to suppress his laughter.

"Right this!"

Qin Han raised his index finger and suddenly channeled his true qi. A thin stream of qi flickered at his fingertip, gradually turning into a fine purple thread.

This thin purple thread, though hard to see with the naked eye, caused the other three to be greatly astonished. The Grand Elder even stood up from his seat.

"Purple qi, it's really purple true qi!"

"Unbelievable, it's the legendary purple qi within the qi!"

Staring intently at the purple thread on Qin Han's finger, the three seemed to want to deeply engrave the purple qi in their minds.

In the ancient records of the Qin family, there was a legend: purple qi within the qi, at the Warrior level, makes one invincible among peers.

This means that with Qin Han's current strength, he can sweep through any opponent at the Third Rank Warrior level, and even has a high chance of defeating a Fourth Rank Warrior.

However, for the three major families in Fenzhen, such a legend only existed in records and had never appeared in Fenzhen's history.

"One percent of the true qi in my body has been converted to purple true qi. The total amount of true qi has not changed, but the quality of the true qi has improved by twenty percent, and the recovery speed of the true qi has also increased by twenty percent. Moreover, this purple true qi has a mysterious power that greatly enhances the effectiveness of martial techniques," Qin Han said with pride, "Even if Qin Mo had grown up smoothly to today, I can still defeat him. What is that little brat?"

"Congratulations, Grand Elder, Clan Head Yide, Young Master Han will surely stand out among the young elites of Fenzhen after the 'Qi Guiding' ceremony," Rong Zhisshi said repeatedly.

"Good, good, good! You are worthy of being my grandson."

The Grand Elder smiled and instructed, "You need to quickly improve your strength. There are only three days until the clan memorial. During these three days, you must not slack off. Tomorrow, go to the library and take out the secret manual of the family's unique technique, the 'Pojun Fist.' With your current strength, you can cultivate a Spirit-level martial art."

Hearing this, Qin Han was overjoyed. He planned that after the clan memorial, he would use the 'Pojun Fist' to defeat Qin Mo in front of everyone, declaring to all that he, Qin Han, was the first among the young generation of the Qin family and even the entire Fenzhen.

...

In the early morning, the sun rose, and the sky was clear.

In the training room, Qin Mo sat cross-legged on a mat, slowly moving his arms in front of his chest, forming various strange gestures as he cultivated the family's unique technique.

Each time he moved his arms, a faint aura emanated, and a visible flow of qi circulated through his muscles and skin, like a gentle breeze.

The most significant change from the Warrior Apprentice to the Warrior level is that the true qi circulating in the body can be emitted to the surface, forming a wind-like aura.

The aura flowing like the wind is the hallmark of the Warrior level.

After returning from his grandfather's place last night, Qin Mo did not rest but continued to cultivate in the training room of his residence until now, hoping to quickly stabilize his First Rank Warrior level.

At this moment, the true qi circulating around Qin Mo's body was continuously moving, and a strange phenomenon appeared. Nearly one-tenth of the nearly transparent true qi in his meridians and dantian was purple.

As the true qi continued to circulate, the qi flowing through his muscles and skin also faintly turned purple. Suddenly, his body trembled, and he exhaled a breath.

Buzz!

Qin Mo opened his mouth and exhaled a thin stream of qi, which condensed and did not disperse, shooting out like a transparent arrow and hitting the wall two meters away.

Pop!

A light sound came from the wall, leaving a shallow mark.

"This is... the true qi penetrating the body, how can it have such penetration power!?"

Opening his eyes, Qin Mo saw the mark on the wall and was somewhat stunned. At the First Rank Warrior level, although the true qi can penetrate the body, it only has full power when it flows on the surface of the body.

With the strength of a First Rank Warrior, if the true qi is released beyond half a meter from the body, its power is reduced to one percent.

The wall was more than two meters away from his position, so the force of the true qi exhaled should have been like a light touch. How could it damage the wall?

Using internal vision, Qin Mo saw that nearly one-tenth of the true qi in his body was purple, and he suddenly remembered a legend about the Warrior level.

"According to ancient records, if one can cultivate purple true qi at the Warrior level, the qi within the qi, one can be invincible among peers. This purple true qi has such astonishing penetration power, so the legend must be true," Qin Mo recalled the content of the ancient records he had read.

However, Qin Mo then shook his head. In his previous life, he had read extensively to restore his body, and his knowledge was much richer than that of the older generation of experts in Fenzhen. He was well aware of the entire legend.

According to the legend, the strongest state of cultivating purple qi at the Warrior level is when the entire body's meridians are filled with purple qi, like a sunrise, known as 'Purple Qi from the East.'

Only by reaching this level can one truly be invincible among peers. In comparison, the purple true qi in Qin Mo's body, which accounted for less than one-tenth of his total true qi, was far from that level.

Qin Mo then thought about the battle last night. He was able to engage Zhao Yong not only because of his powerful body from the Battle Saint Body but also because using purple true qi to perform martial techniques greatly increased their power.

After a moment's thought, Qin Mo stood up and pushed open the door of the training room.

On the other side of the door was his room, where the little girl was still sleeping on the bed, and the table was filled with boxes of various sizes.

These were gifts from the family elders to celebrate his safe return.
