The Universal Genius - Chapter 63

Azure Sky Continent, Fang Empire, Shen Zhou Kingdom, Xiao City, Boar Lions Tavern.

Boar Lion’s Tavern is one of the best inns within the Xiao City, along with the Sea Court Pavillion, Eat All You Want Diner, and Pick One, Eat One Restaurant.

In this crowd filled, refined wooden tavern, many conversations rang about.

In one table, a group of youngsters talked excitedly.

“Hey! Guys! Have you heard? Zhao Zhun, the young Master of the Zhao Clan broke through!”

Then exclamations of awe and gasp could be heard within the group.

In another table, with another group, a middle-aged man said

“Youngsters these days, so Hot-blooded, so Rash. I remember when I was young me and my friends would go out south of here, to hunt some demon beast…” with his nostalgic tone, the middle age man narrated his tale to his friends.

In another table, a couple with the age of 12 years old both. The one sitting on the left is a Scarlet Haired Girl, with an ordinary face, wearing a simple green coloured robe. If one looks from behind, due to her shiny scarlet hair and well-developed body, they would feel that her face is a kingdom toppling beauty. Unfortunately for the onlookers, they would sigh in dismay upon seeing her ordinary face.

His partner, a black-haired ordinary boy, also wearing a simple green coloured robe, who was drinking his fruit juice happily. His body’s physique refined and If one would look closely into his eyes, they would be mesmerized by that golden clear eyes.

With the same situation as the scarlet haired girl, many other girls also expected his face to be dashing and the number one under the heavens type of face, but alas, along with those boys, those girls also sighed in dismay upon seeing that ordinary facial features.

The duo, upon noticing the actions of several teenagers, chuckled and giggled in amusement.

With his left hand holding the girls right hand, the duo continued listening to the conversations around them.

Most of the time the duo were looking eye to eye with each other, as if communicating and sometimes they would laugh and chuckle, other times the girl would pinch the boys hand, other times he would slap her, other times he would punch her, other times she would laugh uproariously in contrast to her feminine and gentle demeanour.

The boy, on the other hand, would always gently hold the girl’s hand, caressing it, kissing it, other times he would poke his nose using the girl’s hand, with which resulted in him being pinch-slap-punch combo…

In contrast to the bustling and noisy surroundings, the duo seemed to have their own world, with only the two of them communicating. Their table, their world. Each looking into each other’s eyes happily.

The duo continued their eye to eye communication.

(In truth, for those of you who still didn’t get who those two were? Get out!… no just kidding.)

In truth, the scarlet haired girl was Xiao Rou, and the black haired boy was Ye Shie.

They were really communicating, although not verbally, but through a spiritual link.

A helpful and simple technique from those having a soul stage at the Heavenly Realm or above.

Don’t panic! Xiao Rou’s Qi Cultivation Stage is still at the Master’s Stage (3), and Ye Shie…well Ye Shie Qi was still being Devoured by the Purple Divine Crystal in his head, making his Qi Cultivation base still at the Adept(2) Stage for 2 whole years. (Yup!)

In further clarification, (I was enlightened) the Body Cultivation of Ye Shie up to date is now at the Low Expert Stage(5), While Xiao Rou is in the Mid Expert Stage(5).

It was due to their ‘dual cultivation every night’ where the duo cultivated together sharing their Qi together. Well technically speaking, Ye Shie was mostly the one controlling the Qi where as Xiao Rou was at the receiving end.

In the Qi Cultivation, Ye Shie remained at the Mid Adept Stage(2), while Xiao Rou throughout the years became a Peak Master Stage (3). But in Soul Cultivation?

Usually, in general, all of the Cultivators would cultivate their Qi first, before cultivating their body. Then afterwards cultivate the soul, they would either travel to gain experience, or by enlightenment, or life and death situation.

Hence, all those who are in the Mortal Realm, whether in the Master Stage(3), Grand Master Stage(4) or the Expert Stage(5) are known due to their Qi Cultivation. For the higher the Quality of Qi, the Higher the Quality of the Body and the Higher the Quality of the Body, the higher possibility of surviving their life travels to improve their soul.

In conclusion, those who wanted to breakthrough to the Heavenly Realm, must first have the Qi, Body, and Soul Stages at the Peak Expert Stage to be able to break through.

BUT! Because of the Golden Majestic Universal Qi, the Highest form of Qi available Ye Shie and Xiao Rou’s Body Cultivation were higher than their Qi Cultivation.

While The Universal Qi is the highest purified Qi available it’s filtering process and its massive requirements for control is difficult, extremely difficult.

In comparison, for example;

A Mortal Type(1) Qi Cultivation Technique which can be used up through Master Stage(3) that has a Mortal Type Qi is like juggling 3 ping-pong balls, hard, but can be mastered. This is the most common type of Qi Cultivation Technique available to anybody. Like a certain someones Altered Basic Refining Qi Cultivation Technique.

The Spirit Type(2) Qi Cultivation Technique which can be used up through Grand Master Stage(4) that has a higher quality Qi called Spirit Qi. It’s like juggling 5 ping-pong balls, now becoming really harder. A rarer Qi Cultivation Technique, only available when joining a Ranked 1st to the 3rd level of an academy, sect, clan, association or guild.

The Profound Type(3) Qi Cultivation Technique which can be used up through Mid Expert Stage(5), a higher Quality of Qi can be cultivated called Profound Qi.

Now it’s like juggling 10 tennis balls, yeah…a little difficult.

This technique is only available in higher Ranked city, clan, academy, sect, association or guild, from either 4th to 6th.

The Perfect Type(4) Qi cultivation Technique, which can be cultivated up to Peak Expert Stage(5), it produces another higher type of Qi called Perfect Qi.

With this, it’s like juggling 20 tennis balls…

These types of techniques are available in any cities, guilds, associations or any groups as long as their ranked is 7th to 8th.

The Last Type of Qi Cultivation Technique. The Cultivation Technique in which only a 9th Ranked group can have, is the Divine Type(5), it can be cultivated up to the peak of Heavenly Realm, due to its purity. It produced what we call, the Universal Qi.

In here, it’s like juggling 50 basketball balls…Impossible right? Yes! that’s impossible, but this is just an example of how one would control and cultivate a Universal Qi.

And it was due to this Universal Qi, and to that Divine Purple Crystal, which causes Ye Shie to moan in pleasure every cultivation session, That Xiao Rou’s Soul Cultivation Stage has arrived at Peak Expert Stage(5), while Ye Shie?… For now, that’s a secret.

The Duo were soulfully communicating when,

In another table, an old man excitedly spoke saying “Hey! Have you heard? An elder of the Formation Guild from the capital of Shen Zhou Kingdom arrived!”

The middle age man and the rest in the table looked at the old man in curiosity urging him to go on.

The old man giggled upon looking at their earnest face, he continued “I heard that one year ago the Guild Master of Xiao City’s Formation Guild, requested a Rank 5 badge from the Shen Zhou Capital!”

“A Rank 5 badge!” a green haired, middle age woman exclaimed.

“Another Rank 5th Formation Master in the Xiao City?!” a pink haired old man gasp!

“Who could it be? Could it be Elder Shen Sao Bai? or Elder Zhao Xi?” a white robed scholarly youngster asked.

Formation Guild’s Elder Shen Sai Bai and Elder Zhao Xi have been the best possible candidate in promoting into a Rank 5 Formation Master in the Xiao City. Where as the only Rank 5th Formation Master in the Xiao City is only the Guild Master Zhang Se.

The old man upon hearing their reactions shook his head.

“No! No! What I’ve heard this time, the badge was not for a Rank 5 Formation Master, but for a Rank 5 Rune Formation Master!”

The group looked at him with various facial expressions, some looked at him in wonder, some in confusion, while mostly with a frowned brow.

“Haha! My face was exactly like yours when I heard the news too!” the old man laughed in glee, upon seeing that same exact reaction he did too.

Meanwhile, in Ye Shie’s and Xiao Rou’s table.

Both of them were looking in the old man’s table, with their eyes in that same sparkling motion, their faces in excitement and glee.

A word excitedly appeared in their mind

‘It arrived!’ ‘IT ARRIVED!!!’
