Chapter 3: Return to Azure Blade Academy?
Li Xuanyang actually wanted to practice the "Frost Jade Heart Sutra" even before he was crippled. However, it would require a lot of time to change the nature of his true qi from the Star-Flame Breathing Technique to the Frost Jade Heart Sutra.
After finding this exercise, he kept it a secret from everyone, including Su Lanying, who followed him everywhere. He started studying ice element exercises and found that they were better in many aspects than flame element exercises.
People who practice ice element exercises could use them in any conditions to fight, while flame element exercises caused people to be unable to reach their max potential during the night. Many experts even forbid young men to practice flame element exercises at night.
However, this was not the case with ice element exercises. Even during the day, Li Xuanyang could easily practice them without any worry. He could even practice all night, and it would even help his practice become faster. He really liked this exercise!
Even though Li Xuanyang told his grandfather about the exercise in a calm tone, his grandfather had felt another shock. He couldn't believe his grandson had found another mid-class of spirit stage exercise other than the Star-Flame Breathing Exercise!
He felt proud of his grandson. "Yang'er, you are really a lucky star for the Qingyun Royal Family. You have found another high-grade exercise!"
To his surprise, Li Xuanyang said in a cold tone, "I won't share this exercise with the Royal Family! Even if you want, I won't give it!"
Qingyun Commandery Prince's smile froze. He hastily asked, "Did anyone from the royal family offend you? I would exile him from the city, and he would also be removed from the royal family. They won't be allowed to be called royals!"
"No one offended me," Li Xuanyang replied. "It's just that this technique is way more precious than the entire royal family. They are unable to sum up enough power for me even with the wealth combined! I won't give anything for free. You must know that our royal family is still standing over Qingyun Commandery only due to the Star-Flame Breathing Exercise. Or else, the royal family would have long perished, and other clans would have become the ruler of Qingyun Commandery, right?"
Hearing this, Qingyun Commandery Prince nodded. The Royal Family didn't have many talents within their family. If other families were given the Star-Flame Breathing Exercise, they might have long surpassed the Heaven Realm and even entered a realm higher than it, while even Qingyun Commandery Prince was still stuck in the Heaven Realm since the last few decades!
Chapter 2
Li Xuanyang left the room indifferently. "I will return to the Sacred King Mountains to practice martial arts and start recovering to my peak. Grandfather, don't worry about me not giving you the Frost Jade Heart Sutra. I have a few reasons for not sharing it with the royal family, and I believe you understand me."
Without waiting for his grandfather's response, Li Xuanyang left the room and went to the huge mountains behind the royal mansion. He wanted to practice in peace.
He had actually found that the Frost Jade Heart Sutra had a few setbacks. One was that he would slowly become like a frost demon, and his emotions would become weaker day by day. He could only get away from this effect until he could cultivate enough spiritual power to support his mind and emotions. He had been practicing spiritual power, so this wasn't difficult for him. However, other people in the royal family didn't practice spiritual power, so this would become a grave issue. Their potential would suddenly explode, making them extremely talented, but at the cost of their emotions.
His grandfather, who was stuck in the Heaven Realm, might have a breakthrough within a few months and reach a realm higher than the Heaven Realm. However, Li Xuanyang didn't want him to become a frost demon who lost his emotions.
He calmed himself down and peered into his own body. He found a lot of spiritual qi gathered throughout his body, and he needed to slowly absorb it. He immediately circulated the exercise and felt a cold energy coursing within his veins. The spiritual qi within his body slowly flowed towards his dantian through his meridians and nourished his body along its way. His body was becoming stronger every time the spiritual qi flowed through it.
He spent the next few hours slowly absorbing all the remnants of spiritual qi within his body. He suddenly felt that he had reached a bottleneck. He found that his dantian was filled to the brim. He could have a breakthrough, but he didn't. He didn't want a hastened breakthrough.
He again circulated the Frost Jade Heart Sutra and started refining the true qi stored within his dantian and transforming it into more pure true qi. He spent the next hour before he felt that his true qi was purer than before and its nature was cold. Even though it wasn't much, it was still better than nothing. He could feel cold power rushing through his veins. He smiled with satisfaction.
However, until now, he hadn't felt any loss of emotions. He smiled and thought, "I think the exercise won't affect me much until I reach the Spirit Realm. While I even have better spiritual power, which will make it more easier for me to control myself from losing my emotions!"
He looked around and found a few strong auras within the mountain. They were the elders of the royal family. He didn't disturb them and left the Sacred King Mountain without any delays.
As he was leaving, he felt someone staring at him. He looked behind and found a young man looking at him. He was surprised and exclaimed, "Brother Li Yuhong, you have returned?"
Chapter 4
Li Yuhong bowed to Li Xuanyang and said respectfully, "Your Highness, I just returned today. I have completed the task given by you and grabbed the egg. However, Qingyun Commandery Prince asked me to give you this egg!" He took out a big box made out of sandalwood and gave it to Li Xuanyang.
However, Li Xuanyang smiled to this. His grandfather really coveted this Frost Jade Heart Sutra. He was trying to make him give it to him by sending him a few gifts! But, Li Xuanyang didn't reject and accepted it. "Wonderful! I have already reached a bottleneck. I would require this to have a breakthrough, Brother Li Yuhong. I would return it to you when I return back to Azure Blade Academy!"
Hearing this, Li Yuhong wore a strange expression. He asked politely, "Your Highness, how much time would you require to return back to Azure Blade Academy?"
"My brother, I would return back within a year! I won't require much time in returning to Azure Blade Academy. Well! Tell me more about what is the situation there!" said Li Xuanyang wearing a proudful smile.
