Martial Arrogance Dragon Soul-Chapter 89: The Spear Named Azure Dragon

The weather turned colder and colder.

Unconsciously, heavy snow started to fall from the sky.

The snowflakes, like the purest spirits of this world, quietly adorned the entire world in an endless white.

Great Qian Martial Institute.

Remorse Cliff in the back mountain.

This place, too, was a world of ice and snow.

Compared to the inside of the Martial Institute, the climate here was even colder, with the howling wind constantly scraping over every edge and rock face of Remorse Cliff.

Thick ice had long since wrapped and covered every inch of rock.

In front of an abyss thousands of feet deep, a figure sat quietly amidst the frozen world.

But upon closer inspection, one would notice that within a one-zhang radius around this figure, there was no ice or snow.

The place where he sat had long since melted away the ice and snow; the rocks became dry and warm.

Even the snowflakes that fluttered down from the sky would instantly melt and evaporate as they neared him.

This made the area around this figure seem like a vacuum zone.

"Huff..."

After a long while, Qin Qing opened his eyes.

Within his eyes, two green-colored dragon-shaped flames flashed and disappeared.

At the same time, the originally intense heat emanating from Qin Qing’s body also retracted somewhat, but a faint layer of green glow persisted, shrouding his body like a flame.

This allowed Qin Qing not to feel a trace of the cold despite sitting in such a cold frozen world.

"Soul Refinement Realm, the sixth level!"

Unconsciously, Qin Qing’s cultivation had broken through to the fifth level of the Soul Refinement Realm.

And having stabilized at the fifth level for a while, Qin Qing even felt the premonition of advancing to the sixth level’s Perfection, and preparing to impact the seventh level.

Before he was punished to face the wall at Remorse Cliff, Qin Qing was only at the fourth level of the Soul Refinement Realm.

And during this period, he had successively broken through two minor realms.

Such a speed of cultivation, if known to others, would be enough to drive them mad.

Yet, Qin Qing still felt dissatisfied.

"It’s still too slow..."

"What I need most now is to enhance my cultivation realm, to strengthen my own power!"

Qin Qing’s inner longing for strength was extremely intense.

"The sixth level of the Soul Refinement Realm is far from enough!"

"Even the Divine Might Realm isn’t enough!"

Scenes flashed in Qin Qing’s mind, recalling the day Shangguan Yong led the Imperial Court soldiers to invade the Great Qian Martial Institute.

With just a casual palm strike, exhibiting True Intent Manifestation and revealing the cultivation of the Nascent Soul Realm, Xu Fang had terrified Shangguan Yong and his army of a hundred thousand city guards into a disgraceful retreat and even forced them to sever an arm.

Likewise, Elder Lin who accompanied Jiang Ruorong, managed with just a sentence to make Shangguan Yong and the others show the utmost respect.

That was true supreme power!

"With the power of the Nascent Soul Realm, one can make Shangguan Yong too scared to even lift his head!"

"And I... possess the Dragon Blood Physique, the Azure Dragon Martial Soul... As long as I use the Blood Burning Secret Technique, I can directly enhance my power by an entire Great Realm!"

"Therefore, if I can achieve the Golden Core Realm, and then unleash the Blood Burning Secret Technique, I would have the power of the Nascent Soul Realm. By that time, would the Shangguan Clan, Guan Family, Lin Family, these powerful elites of the royal city, dare to trouble me?"

With this thought, Qin Qing couldn’t help but slightly furrow his brows.

The Blood Burning Secret Technique...

Originally, Bai Qiuhe had warned Qin Qing to not use the Blood Burning Secret Technique carelessly.

Because the Blood Burning Secret Technique essentially meant burning a martial artist’s Essence Blood and Life Essence.

This method of draining the body’s potential can bring terrible repercussions to a martial artist and even affect the foundation, causing irreparable damage to future cultivation!

However!

After activating his Dragon Blood Physique, Qin Qing found that using the Blood Burning Secret Technique felt different from before.

Normally, using the Blood Burning Secret Technique would cause one to feel their body’s vitality rapidly draining away, as if the entire body was being hollowed out.

But after activating the Dragon Blood Physique, there wasn’t such a feeling when using the Blood Burning Secret Technique, not only did the duration of its effect become longer, but also the magnitude of the power increase became greater. 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺

And most importantly, after the Blood Burning Secret Technique’s effects had subsided, there were no signs of any adverse aftermath.

"This means that the Dragon Blood Physique can employ the Blood Burning Secret Technique at any time, according to one’s wishes!"

Therefore, Qin Qing was confident that as long as he reached the Golden Core Realm, he would have the confidence to contend with a Martial Ancestor from the Nascent Soul Realm in martial arts!"

"What needs to be done now is to break through as quickly as possible and raise my cultivation to the Golden Core Realm!"

"Only by possessing absolute power... can I find my parents as soon as possible!"

"And protect my little sister and the other relatives around me..."

When he thought of the helplessness he felt during the siege led by Shangguan Yong at Qiuhai Villa last time, a sense of unease and discomfort surged in Qin Qing’s heart.

He really disliked that sensation!

Really disliked it!

Therefore, he longed for even greater strength!

"Yoohoo...~~"

Just at that moment, a bird’s cry suddenly came from the sky.

Qin Qing looked up.

Amidst the wind and snow, a massive white eagle soared, swirling the surrounding snowflakes into a vortex.

"It’s Da Bai!"

Qin Qing cracked a smile and gestured to Da Bai.

This great white eagle was Jiang Ruorong’s spirit pet, Da Bai.

Seeing Qin Qing wave, Da Bai called out cheerfully twice, then swooped down and landed beside Qin Qing. It then rubbed its sizable smooth white head against him repeatedly, displaying an affectionate ’big bird leaning on a person’ demeanor.

Qin Qing also indulgently stroked Da Bai’s feathers.

In this period, Qin Qing cultivated at Remorse Cliff, where no one was allowed to visit him.

Only Da Bai would fly over every day, lying quietly beside Qin Qing, silently keeping him company.

Of course, Da Bai also had another task when it visited every day, which was to bring Qin Qing his meals.

But today—

Qin Qing noticed that Da Bai hadn’t brought the box that usually carried his food.

"How come you didn’t bring any food today?"

As Qin Qing wondered, he suddenly heard the crunching sound of footsteps on the snow.

Then, he saw two figures.

"Xiao Shuang, Sister Jiang! Why are you here?"

Qin Qing looked at them in surprise.

"Little Junior Brother, three months have passed! Xiao Shuang and I have come to pick you up," Jiang Ruorong said with a smile.

"Ah? Three months have already passed?"

Qin Qing couldn’t help but be astonished.

These three months, his focus was entirely on cultivation, and he hadn’t kept track of the time.

It was unexpected for three months to have flown by like this.

It seemed like it had only been three days.

"What, do you feel reluctant to leave here?" Jiang Ruorong teased.

"No... not at all!" Qin Qing laughed, scratching his head. "I just didn’t realize that time could fly so fast!"

Having said that, Qin Qing walked over and picked up Xiao Shuang. "Wow, our little Xiao Shuang has grown taller and even a bit chubbier. Tell brother, did you miss me during this time?"

"Yes! Missed!"

Xiao Shuang nodded vigorously, her complexion looking much healthier, a vast improvement from three months ago.

It was clear that she had been in good care during this time.

"It seems that Master and Sister Jiang have taken very good care of Xiao Shuang..." Qin Qing felt moved inwardly.

"Let’s go! It has been three months. Qin Qing, it’s time for you to leave this place, to meet old friends and make some new ones," Said Jiang Ruorong with a smile.

"Indeed! It’s time to see some old friends, and also to make new acquaintances!"

Qin Qing nodded and picked up the spear beside him.

"Old buddy, let’s go!"

Qin Qing shook his arm, shaking off the ice and snow from the spear, revealing two characters inscribed on it—

The name of the spear: Azure Dragon!
