Chapter 319 Expert beyond Divine Stage
Hearing that the blossom person was going to improve his strength, Qin Hao was astounded for a while. He was thinking about the advantages and here they came. However, how could such a blossom person help him improve strength? He was quite curious.
"Sit down, young man. Just relax your body."
"Uh." Qin Hao wanted to say something but gave up and sat on the ground as ordered.
As he sat down, "splash", numerous blossoms flew to him and wreathed him like a silkworm cocoon, making him like the baby silkworm in it.
Qin Hao was a little shocked. He opened his mouth as if to ask. Then a hand of a giant shadow grasped his shoulder and made him shake. Strong power flowed in his body like waves in the sea, running in his vessels at an insane speed.
Qin Hao had a similar experience of being given power directly. Bloody Demon King had once done that. However, comparatively, Bloody Demon King's power couldn’t be compared with this person’s, not even close. A vivid comparison could be: Bloody Demon King’s power was like a stream and this one’s was like a sea.
Qin Hao's vessels couldn’t stand because the power was too strong. His body had adverse reactions and his vessels were bulging in pain. Under such a circumstance, his vessels would break, and he would die.
"Senior, your power is too strong. I may..." Qin Hao wanted to say something to stop him. The blossom person had understood him before he finished his words.
"No talking. Just relax your body. I will handle everything. I will use my force to expand your vessels and that might hurt. Can you bear it?"
Qin Hao nodded with resolution. He answered with determination, "Come on, senior. I can bear it."
During those days when he was going through Skin Refining, he could even bear the inhumane pain like torturing himself. This would be no problem. Moreover, his vessels had once been expanded by Tianyi Mystery Water. He had gone through the pain. So, it would not matter for another time.
"Ah, ah..."
Although Qin Hao used all his strength to hold on, he could not help making miserable shouts. The vessels' being expanded by forces brought great pain beyond one's tolerance. He just could not help screaming.
The transmission of power kept going. So did Qin Hao's miserable yelling.
...
"Shifu, why is sister Shadow still in sleep?"
In Medicine Sect, Shadow lay on the bed and her face was pale. Bloody Demon King had tried any ways he could manage to think and still failed to wake her up, which was quite a shame on him.
Damn, he was the Shifu of Qin Hao, the Demon King and the expert once in Martial God level. He could not even wake up a seriously wounded person. And he was even dripping with sweat. That was really a shame.
"Damn, it’s all those bastards' crime. My Space Ring was robbed. Or, any pill in it could save her. Now we have to wait for Qin Hao." Saying it, he was ashamed. Then he added quickly, "No worry, though. With my efforts, she is now safe."
"Then, how long will she hold on?" Shi Bingying asked with anxiety.
"Well, three or five days at least. With my efforts, rest assured." Bloody Demon King boasted. Actually, Shadow could only hold on for one or two days at most.
"Alas, Qin Hao has gone with those two guys for so long. What on earth are they doing?" Bloody Demon King was hoping that Qin Hao would come back quickly. He could only make it for one day. One day later and she would be dead. If someone asked him about the three- or five-days stuff, that would be a total shame on him.
However, his words reminded other people. Shi Bingying also felt quite abnormal. Why had they gone there for so long and hadn’t come back? Where had they been?
“Shifu, is there something serious with Hao?" Shi Bingying asked with concern.
Bloody Demon King pressed on his forehead, "I’m not sure. You take care of her and I will look for him. Damn, I must figure out what they are doing."
After that, Bloody Demon King wanted to go out with anger. Then he saw one thing. He instantly stopped and looked into the room. Under the front of Shadow's bed was a black parcel. He was amazed, "Little Ying, what is that?"
Seeing Bloody Demon King look at the parcel and ask, Shi Bingying answered, "That's sister Shadow's stuff. She said she would give Hao a surprise. That may be the surprise."
"Surprise?" Bloody Demon King frowned, "What's in it?"
Shi Bingying shook her head, "I don't have time to check it. Moreover, that's sister Shadow's stuff. I can’t see it without her permission."
"Let me see." Bloody Demon King did not care if people allowed him. He walked over and lifted up the parcel and opened it. A shining red thing almost made him blind, making him yell loudly.
"My goodness, Blood Coral? The, the... top Blood Coral. My gosh!"
Bloody Demon King was a figure having seen so many precious treasures. He wouldn’t care about to see something common. That thing should surprise him. Then it should be a really extraordinary thing.
"Hah hah, the girl will be saved. Come on, give me water, hot water." Bloody Demon King was so excited. A top Blood Coral was even rare in the Ancient Martial World. He did not expect to see it here, especially such a big one.
"Ok, ok." Shi Bingying heard that Shadow could be saved. She brought hot water without asking what kind of treasure it was.
When he got the water, Bloody Demon King cautiously opened the parcel, spared part of it and threw it into water.
He picked up the bottle, and the water was boiled with his inner force. A flow of bloody liquid burst out from the Blood Coral. Soon the bottle was full of bloody water.
"Hurry, open her mouth." Bloody Demon King ordered.
Shi Bingying hurried to open Shadow's small mouth. Then Bloody Demon King poured the bloody water into it.
"Shifu, will it wake sister Shadow up?" Shi Bingying looked at Bloody Demon King with expectation.
Bloody Demon King shook his head, "Blood Coral is a top treasure. If made into pills, it can save the dead. Unfortunately, we can’t make it into pills. We have to force her to eat it in the least sustainable way, which will bring the worst effect. However, it can sustain her life. She can make it for a few months if fed every day like that."
It couldn’t save the dead. Nevertheless, Blood Coral alone could longer her life for a few months. Its tremendous value could be seen.
“Hah hah, what a precious thing." Bloody Demon King paid attention to the Blood Coral again. All greedy feelings in his eyes could be seen. If he used it, he would probably break into the Spirit Stage.
What a pity! That's a surprise given by the girl to Qin Hao. It would not be proper if he took it as his Shifu.
Damn. Why didn’t I have that luck to have such a beautiful girl to give me such a precious gift. All luck had been given to Qin Hao.
Anyway, he was Qin Hao’s Shifu. If he asked it from him, he would give it to him. Therefore, it would still belong to him. He could just use it if it was his. He just needed to inform him after he came back. This was called pre-borrow.
Bloody Demon King thought for quite a while and figured out a very farfetched reason which could persuade Qin Hao. Then he took it for granted.
He did not look for Qin Hao as he promised. He kept most of the coral after sparing some to support Shadow's life. He shut his door and started to cultivate.
That made Shi Bingying totally speechless and yet she could do nothing. After all, he was Qin Hao's Shifu.
...
In the cabin in the peach grove, withered blossoms fell to all over the ground. Qin Hao was lying on the blossoms breathing roughly.
Above his head, a faint shadow of a man floated there as if it could disappear with the wind at any time.
"Young man, hurry up and run your Qi to adjust your breath. I don't have much time." The shadow hurried him.
Qin Hao struggled to get up. Without wiping the sweat on his forehead, he immediately started to mediate and adjust his breath.
In his body, the strong power was roaring like a massive flood. Every time he ran his Qi, he would feel the terrible power in his body.
It seemed that as long as he wanted, he could use all his power to attack and grind all his enemies.
"Senior, thanks to your power." After adjustment, Qin Hao bowed down deeply to the shadow.
He had gratitude to and awe of the person.
This person told him what was like a real master. Compared with him, even Bloody Demon King was like the dust. As for expanding vessels with forces, Bloody Demon King couldn’t manage to do that. But this person did it easily. Moreover, it was just the shadow of a soul fragment. If the real person were here, Qin Hao wouldn’t imagine how powerful he could be.
It was the fact that in the cultivation of Ancient Martial World, the Divine Stage was not the highest stage.
The martial skills cultivated by Qin Hao were from Spirit Martial Continent, where the Eighth Stage Martial Cultivator equaled to Divine Stage in Ancient Martial World. After that, there were Martial Sovereign, Martial Saint and Martial God. He did not know what was after Divine Stage in Ancient Martial World. Even Bloody Demon King did not know it, or he would have told him.
No matter what it was, it must be a brand-new stage, the stage for real masters. He just did not know why the former master of the Cauldron, who had entered such a high stage, would end up leaving a soul fragment here. Where was his real body? Perished or be somewhere else?
"Young man, don’t need to thank me. I give you power in the hope that you will contribute to Medicine Sect." The shadow's answer interrupted Qin Hao's thoughts. It sounded a little piteous, "I thought I can help you break through to Immortal Stage. What a pity! I can only help you reach the peak of the late period of Void Stage, not even Peak of Void Stage. The skills you cultivated is so strong. The power needed for breakthroughs is also huge. I can only help you so much with all my power. However, with your power, you can do whatever you want in the Semi-Ancient Martial World. Very good. That's very good."
The shadow was quite comforted, "Thus you can have the opportunity to enter the Ancient Martial World and lead renaissance for Medicine Sect in the world. The future of Medicine Sect is on your shoulder."
"Senior, to pay for your kindness, I will exert myself for Medicine Sect to reappear its glory. The question now is how I should go out. Qin Hao was still quite anxious about going out.
"There isn’t enough time for me to tell you the way. I will disappear soon. Now close your eyes. Relax your mind and the sea of consciousness. Don’t have any defense idea. I will place my mind into your sea of consciousness and integrate it with your mind, which will become part of your memory. With the part of my memory, you will know clearly how to do it."
Qin Hao was astounded. This reminded him of the soul from Spirit Martial Continent he once integrated into his body, whose memory had been part of his. Now another man's memory came. His body would have three men's memories. He was really a damn freak.
"Ok, senior, let's do it." Qin Hao immediately closed his eyes as ordered. He relaxed his mind and opened his spiritual sea of consciousness.
In fact, this action was of danger. If someone with evil plots intruded into his mind, which had no defense consciousness, his spiritual sea of consciousness would probably be conquered by the person and finally, his mind would be taken. Then the body would be controlled by that person.
Luckily, this man was not someone with evil purposes. Moreover, the consciousness of a shadow was too weak to take control of Qin Hao’s. There was no danger.
After Qin Hao's getting prepared, the shadow in the sky turned into airflow and went into the forehead of Qin Hao and soon disappeared.
Qin Hao felt a shake in his head. Soon he felt that there was another man's memory. The memory was integrated gradually into his mind. Therefore, a legend, a world of real masters was shown in his mind.
